Global Patterns and Gaps in Research on Salinity Tolerance of Inland Fishes
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 400-411, March 2026.ABSTRACT Freshwater salinization is an emerging threat impacting approximately one‐third of the world's freshwater bodies. However, the salinity tolerance of many inland fishes remains understudied, despite being a crucial factor in determining species distributions and fitness.

Developmental ecology of annual killifish Millerichthys robustus (Cyprinodontiformes: Cynolebiidae) [PDF]
Developmental Dynamics, 2017 AbstractPopulations of annual killifishes persist in temporary water bodies over the dry season through the expression of diapause in their drought‐resistant embryos. Environmental cues may influence expression of the diapause phenotype during embryonic incubation. Millerichthys robustus is the only annual killifish distributed in North America.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Animals that live in a wide range of environments possess plastic traits such as colour change, but most research has only looked at this within single populations. In this study, we tested four populations of the Arabian killifish from marine and freshwater ecosystems, examining how well they change colour against different backgrounds.

Sexual Dimorphism in Fin Size and Shape in Bluefin Killifish
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.This study shows very high levels of sexual dimorphism in dorsal and anal fin traits compared to other fins. Dorsal and anal fin traits are also correlated, such that individuals with large dorsal fins also have large anal fins. Together, this suggests strong sexual selection on these functionally integrated traits.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We analyzed water samples from different seasons and locations in Erhai Lake to determine whether eDNA barcoding can effectively show the diversity of fish in such lakes. In the manuscript, we discuss our findings regarding the range of species found, their spatiotemporal distribution, and whether eDNA barcoding gave similar results to traditional ...

Male Copulatory Structures in Reproductively Functional Female Live‐Bearing Fish Pseudopoecilia fria
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We recently discovered a population of the live‐bearing fish Pseudopoecilia fria (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae), in which females were found to possess gonopodia, reproductive organs normally exclusive to male fish that are used in the transfer of sperm in mating.

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a cichlid species native to Africa and is widely farmed in tropical and subtropical regions around the world, making it one of the most commercially important aquaculture species. Despite its significance, there is still a lack of detailed anatomical descriptions of its brain.
