A new Hyphessobrycon (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae) of the Hyphessobrycon agulha lineage of Hyphessobryconinae from the lower Aripuanã basin, Brazil, with comments about the lineage. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract A new species of Hyphessobrycon is described from a tributary of Rio Jatuarana, lower Rio Aripuanã basin, Rio Madeira basin, Apuí, Amazonas. The new species is part of the Hyphessobrycon agulha lineage, with the typical midlateral narrow black stripe immediately followed dorsally by an iridescent stripe.

The key role of cultural preservation in maize diversity conservation in the argentine yungas. [PDF]
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2013 Farmers’ decisions on what to grow and why can contribute in understanding the conservation of agrobiodiversity. Culture and ethnicity are indicated as first‐class factors leading preservation of heirloom cultivars but this has been little considered in studies examining factors that influence the loss or preservation of agrobiodiversity.

Extended genetic diversity of bovine viral diarrhea virus and frequency of genotypes and subtypes in cattle in Italy between 1995 and 2013. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2014 Genetic typing of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) has distinguished BVDV‐1 and BVDV‐2 species and an emerging putative third species (HoBi‐like virus), recently detected in southern Italy, signaling the occurrence of natural infection in Europe.

Spatial distribution of Poa scaberula (poaceae) along the andes [PDF]
Heliyon, 2020 Mountains support a great diversity of species and habitat types. Grasslands are the dominant landscape in the Andes and play an important ecological role. However, they are threatened by many factors, including climate change and human activities.

Reference DNA barcodes and other mitochondrial markers for identifying Caribbean Octocorals [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2019 DNA barcoding is a useful tool for documenting the diversity of metazoans. The most commonly used barcode markers, 16S and COI, are not considered suitable for species identification within some "basal" phyla of metazoans.

Phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary patterns of the genus Psammolestes Bergroth, 1911 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) [PDF]
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Background The evolutionary history of biodiversity in South America has been poorly studied in the seasonal dry tropical forest (SDTF). Species diversification in this ecosystem may have a twofold explanation.

'Filogeografía y sistemática de Oxyrhopus petolarius LINNAEUS, 1758 (Squamata: Colubridae)'
, 2023 La falsa coral amazónica (Oxyrhopus petolarius) es una especie con gran variabilidad morfológica. En Ecuador se distribuye a ambos lados de los Andes, por lo que se esperaría que haya una diferenciación morfológica y/o molecular entre las poblaciones de ...
