Ecological Factors and Diversification among Neotropical Characiforms [PDF]
Morphological and DNA sequence data has been used to propose hypotheses of relationships within the Characiformes with minimal comparative discussion of causes underpinning the major intraordinal diversification patterns.

Biogeography of curimatid fishes reveals multiple lowland-upland river transitions and differential diversification in the Neotropics (Teleostei, Curimatidae). [PDF]
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.

Ultrastructural changes in female hepatocytes during ovarian maturation of Steindachnerina insculpta (Pisces: Curimatidae) Mudanças ultra-estruturais nos hepatócitos de fêmeas de Steindachnerina insculpta (Pisces: Curimatidae) durante a maturação ovariana [PDF]
During gonadal maturation the females of Steindachnerina insculpta, a teleost of the Furnas reservoir, Minas Gerais, Brazil, show low hepatosomatic and high gonadossomatic indexes, suggesting possible transference of hepatic substances to the ovaries. In

Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling. [PDF]
ABSTRACT 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 ...
