Multisensory integration and behavioral plasticity in sharks from different ecological niches.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The underwater sensory world and the sensory systems of aquatic animals have become better understood in recent decades, but typically have been studied one sense at a time.

Hippopotamyrus ansorgii species complex in the Upper Zambezi River System with a description of a new species, H. szaboi (Mormyridae) [PDF]

, 2004
Specimens referable to Hippopotamyrus ansorgii sampled from the Upper Zambezi River System within Caprivi (Namibia) represent a complex of three species, two of which coexist in the Upper Zambezi River, and a third that inhabits a nearby river, the ...

Fish Evo‐Devo: Moving Toward Species‐Specific and Knowledge‐Based Interactome

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 3, Page 158-168, May 2025.
Gaining knowledge‐based, fish‐specific interactomes is crucial in Evo‐Devo biology for uncovering how gene networks drive the unique adaptations and diversity of fish, the most diverse vertebrates. These interactomes also provide insights into conserved and derived mechanisms of vertebrate evolution, highlighting the molecular basis of key evolutionary

De Se Modal Illusions

Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 33-66, March 2025.
Abstract Research on personal identity often relies on imaginary cases and tends to theorize about our nature from the first‐person perspective. In this paper, I argue that a problem arises when we combine the two methods and assess imaginary cases from the first‐person perspective. The problem is that the link between de se imagination and modality is

Encoding and processing of sensory information in neuronal spike trains [PDF]

, 1999
Recently, a statistical signal-processing technique has allowed the information carried by single spike trains of sensory neurons on time-varying stimuli to be characterized quantitatively in a variety of preparations.

Mitochondrial DNA patterns describe the evolutionary history of the bonnethead shark Sphyrna tiburo (Linneus 1758) complex in the western Atlantic Ocean

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 2, Page 403-419, February 2025.
Abstract The apparent lack of physical barriers in the marine realm has created the conception that many groups have a constant gene flow. However, changes in ocean circulation patterns, glacial cycles, temperature, and salinity gradients are responsible for vicariant events in many fish species, including sharks.

The environment to the rescue: can physics help predict predator–prey interactions?

Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 1927-1947, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Understanding the factors that determine the occurrence and strength of ecological interactions under specific abiotic and biotic conditions is fundamental since many aspects of ecological community stability and ecosystem functioning depend on patterns of interactions among species.

A taxonomic revision of the Neotropical electric fish genus Brachyhypopomus (Ostariophysi: Gymnotiformes: Hypopomidae), with descriptions of 15 new species

Neotropical Ichthyology
The bluntnose knifefish genus BrachyhypopomusMago-Leccia, 1994, is diagnosed from other Rhamphichthyoidea (Rhamphichthyidae + Hypopomidae) by the presence of a disk-like ossification in the anterior portion of the palatoquadrate, and by the following ...

A review of the reproductive biology of mormyroid fishes: An emerging model for biomedical research

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 342, Issue 3, Page 144-163, May 2024.
Mormyroid electric fish have great potential as biomedical models, but the inability to reliably breed mormyroids in the laboratory has hindered widespread use in this capacity. To facilitate solving this problem, we extensively review mormyroid reproductive biology.
