HOW LIMNOLOGICAL VARIABLES INFLUENCE THE OCCURRENCE AND ABUNDANCE OF A VISUAL PREDATOR IN AN INVADED RIVER-FLOODPLAIN SYSTEM [PDF]

, 2020
Environmental characteristics of an invaded environment can predict the invasion success of a species, depending on its habits and life strategies. Cichla kelberi is a visual and voracious predator introduced in the Upper Paraná River floodplain, an area

Proteocephalus macrophallus (Cestoda: Proteocephalidae) Infecting Cichla kelberi (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) as a Bioindicator for Trace Metal Accumulation in a Neotropical River from Southeastern Brazil

Water, Air, & Soil Pollution, 2021
Here, we evaluate the potential for trace metal accumulation of nine elements (Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, As, Cd, and Pb) in the cestodes Proteocephalus macrophallus parasitizing the tucunare, Cichla kelberi, in the Jacare-Guacu River, southeastern Brazil.

Unprotected Waters: When Protection Fails In Freshwater

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive species are a major driver of biodiversity loss in protected areas (PAs), yet their impacts in aquatic environments are less well documented. This study investigated the occurrence and distribution of nonnative freshwater fish in federal PAs in Brazil.

Achieving conservation through cattle ranching: The case of the Brazilian Pantanal

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
Cattle ranching in the Pantanal should be part of the conservation agenda and we show the pathways to it. Abstract Cattle ranching in the ~140,000 km2 Brazilian Pantanal is considered one of the most important cases of sustainable use of natural resources in the global south. The region has had a successful history of balancing environmental protection

Escapes of non-native fish from flooded aquaculture facilities: the case of Paranapanema River, southern Brazil [PDF]

, 2018
Non-native species are a major driver of biodiversity loss. Aquaculture activities play a key role in introductions, including the escape of fishes from fish farm facilities. Here, the impact of flooding due to El Niño rains in 2015/2016 in the Lower and

Fish distribution across altitudinal gradients in the Upper Paraguay River Basin: Implications for conservation in the Pantanal region

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This paper approaches the patterns in fish distribution across the altitudinal gradient in the Upper Paraguay River basin, from uplands to the floodplain. We compiled more than 75,000 available fish records and registered 342 fish species and your distribution along altitudinal gradient. Floodplain portion have higher species diversity than headwaters,
