Biogeography of curimatid fishes reveals multiple lowland-upland river transitions and differential diversification in the Neotropics (Teleostei, Curimatidae). [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 The time‐calibrated molecular phylogeny and geographic range evolution of the Neotropical family Curimatidae show a Late Cretaceous origin in lowland basins of South America with subsequent colonization to upland basins at multiple times during the Cenozoic.

Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) expansion in the Madre de Dios region of the Peruvian Amazon has transformed primary forests into a novel wetland complex of thousands of abandoned mining ponds. Despite their ecological relevance, post‐mining recovery of these systems remains understudied, particularly regarding fish biodiversity ...

Atresia of ovarian follicles in fishes, and implications and uses in aquaculture and fisheries
Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 9, Page 1271-1291, September 2021., 2021 Abstract Atresia of ovarian follicles, that is the degenerative process of germ cells and their associated somatic cells, is a complex process involving apoptosis, autophagy and heterophagy. Follicular atresia is a normal component of fish oogenesis and it is observed throughout the ovarian cycle, although it is more frequent in regressing ovaries ...

Ontogeny of the Skeleton of Leporinus oliveirai (Characiformes, Anotomidae). [PDF]
J MorpholIn this study, we provide the first complete description of the skeleton ontogeny of an anostomid. The developmental sequence of 141 bony elements is described and illustrated. The main discoveries are numerous conical teeth on the premaxilla and dentary that are replaced with three or four large incisiform multicuspid teeth, that become unicuspid in ...
