Cytological studies in Cyprinidae (Pisces) [PDF]
The chromosome numbers of six species belonging to Cyprinidae have been studied. Abramis ballerus (L) has 2n = 52 and an N.F. value of 70, Abramis brama (L) 2n = 52 and an N.F. value of 82. Aspius aspius (L) 2n = 52 and an N.F. value of 94, Rutilus rutilus (L) 2n = 50 with an N.F. value of 76, Scardinius erythrophtalamus (L) 2n = 48 with an N.F.

Environmental contamination with the synthetic estrogen 17α‐ethinyl estradiol (EE2) is widespread in coastal ecosystems, yet behavioural effects in marine fishes remain poorly understood. We exposed southern crested weedfish (Cristiceps australis) to low and high EE2 concentrations for 14 days and assessed boldness and anxiety using a refuge‐use assay.

Abstract Southern Africa is a region denoted by both high levels of fish diversity, some of it cryptic and unrecognised by current taxonomy, and severely threatened freshwater ecosystems. The Waterberg, a key aquatic ecoregion of the greater Limpopo River basin in South Africa, represents an area with high terrestrial conservation value but is lacking ...

Diversification of prey capture techniques among the piscivores in Lake Tana's (Ethiopia) Labeobarbus species flock (Cyprinidae) [PDF]
Lake Tana harbours the only known intact species flock of large cyprinid fishes (15 Labeobarbus spp.). One of the most curious aspects of this species flock is the large number (8) of piscivorous species.
