Environmental DNA and Conventional Sampling Capture Complementary Patterns of Ichthyofaunal Diversity in the Selangor River Estuary, Malaysia

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Mangrove estuaries are a key ecosystem for coastal fishery resources, especially in developing nations such as Malaysia. Using identical sampling points and duration for both eDNA metabarcoding and conventional sampling, fish community analyses highlight shared and unique taxa, variable taxonomic resolution, and the complementarity of eDNA ...

Monogenean fauna of alien tilapias (Cichlidae) in south China [PDF]

open access: yesParasite, 2019
Tilapias are important aquaculture fishes that have been introduced widely all over the world, often carrying their monogenean parasites with them. An extensive investigation on monogeneans of invasive tilapias was conducted in 19 natural water sources in south China between July 2015 and December 2017. We found nine known species of monogeneans, i.e.,

Do Coexisting Cryptic Species of Predatory Peacock Bass (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) Partition Their Niche?

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have
