An Insight into the Chromosomal Evolution of Lebiasinidae (Teleostei, Characiformes) [PDF]
Lebiasinidae fishes have been historically neglected by cytogenetical studies. Here we present a genomic comparison in eleven Lebiasinidae species, in addition to a review of the ribosomal DNA sequences distribution in this family. With that, we develop ten sets of experiments in order to hybridize the genomic DNA of representative species from the ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi (Characiformes: Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
The Paracheirodon axelrodi is an important freshwater fish in the Amazon basin of South America, more expensive than Paracheirodon innesi. Here, we describe the complete 17,100 base pair (bp) mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi mohavensis. The mitogenome has a nucleotide base composition of A (29.62%), T (29.41%), G (15.39%), and C (25.62%),

Sperm phylogeny of Characidae (Teleostei, Characiformes)
AbstractThe phylogeny of the very diverse Neotropical fish family Characidae has been the subject of several recent contributions based on morphological characters, molecular data or both in combined analyses. In cases of conflict between these kinds of data, resolution by combined analyses most often tends to agree with the molecular evidence, given ...

Chromosomal characterization of three species of Serrasalmini (Serrasalmidae: Characiformes). [PDF]
The tribe Serrasalmini is a diverse group with paraphyletic genera and taxonomic uncertainties. Several studies have been carried out in this group of fish in order to understand this problem, including the cytogenetic approach. In this study, three species of a clade of Serrasalmini were characterized cytogenetically - Pristobrycon striolatus ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Gephyrocharax atracaudatus (Characiformes, Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Gephyrocharax atracaudatus. The genome is found to be 17,049 bp in length and has a base composition of A (29.95%), G (15.29%), C (26.13%) and T (28.63%). Similar to other Gephyrocharax species, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 1 ...

Larvae of migratory Characiformes species in an archipelago in the Lower Amazon River
In the Amazon basin, most of the migratory Characiformes species represent an important fishing resource for local people. However, the lack of information about the main areas and periods of reproduction and the importance of certain environments for ...

First record of Astyanax puka Mirande, Aguilera & Azpelicueta, 2007 (Teleostei: Characidae) in Juramento River basin, Salta, Argentina [PDF]
Astyanax puka was described from the endorheic Río Salí basin, Argentina, and it was not previously recorded elsewhere, being considered until now as endemic from that basin.
