A new, conspicuously pigmented Pyrrhulina (Teleostei: Characiformes: Lebiasinidae) from the Río Tigre, Loreto, Peru

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of Pyrrhulina is described based on morphological and molecular evidence. Pyrrhulina punctata is distinguished from all congeners by the presence of a series of 7 to 16 irregular blotches of dark pigmentation on the flanks, equally marked in juveniles and adult specimens, the presence of 26–28 lateral‐line scales, 17–21 maxillary

The emergence of pathogens on fish in an impacted estuary and the role of non‐native piranhas in a potential bacterial infectious outbreak

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract As many tropical aquatic ecosystems worldwide, the Doce River estuary (DRE, southeastern Brazil) has increasingly faced multiple anthropogenic threats, including deforestation, mining, species introduction and water management. The 2015 collapse of the Fundão iron ore tailings dam severely changed water properties and increased heavy metal ...

Integrative taxonomy reveals two new species of whiptail catfishes Loricaria (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from northeastern Brazil

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Two new species of whiptail catfish, Loricaria (Siluriformes: Loricariidae), were discovered in the Munim and Itapecuru river basins, Maranhão State, northeastern Brazil, through an integrative taxonomic approach combining morphology and mitochondrial DNA.

Range extension and first records of Coryphaenoides striaturus Barnard, 1925 and Coryphaenoides subserrulatus Makushok, 1976 (Macrouridae: Gadiformes) in Brazilian waters, Southwest Atlantic, using integrative taxonomy

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Coryphaenoides Gunnerus, 1765 comprises 66 valid species of deep‐sea fishes commonly known as grenadiers, with 6 previously reported from Brazilian waters. Here, we make the first records for Coryphaenoides striaturus and Coryphaenoides subserrulatus on the Brazilian continental slope. Both species are distributed in the subtropical regions of

Time‐calibrated relationships of a rare cave catfish (Trichomycterus rubbioli): Shedding light on troglobitic lifestyle origin in the Brazilian caatinga

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Catfishes of the subfamily Trichomycterinae comprise the most diverse fish group with species adapted to live in Neotropical caves, but past evolutionary scenarios that have driven the origin of these troglobitic species remain unknown. We herein investigate the phylogenetic position of the cave‐restricted Trichomycterus rubbioli, endemic to ...
