Participatory citizen science data complements agency‐collected data for species inventories

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
Citizen science data from iNaturalist and eBird can make meaningful contributions in complementing state agency‐derived species inventories of state parks in Florida. Agency data and citizen science data overlap in the species they document and each provides novel species in different parks.

Innervation Drives Postembryonic Expansion of the Zebrafish Anterior Lateral Line System

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 1, January 2026.
A dramatic expansion of the anterior lateral line system occurs during zebrafish ontogeny, largely driven by the addition of superficial neuromasts. Here, we describe a new hybrid‐origin mechanism of neuromast addition and uncover a larval‐stage developmental switch to an innervation‐dependent phase of expansion.

Characterization of Mitochondrial Genomes and Evolutionary Relationships in Two Moenkhausia (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study successfully decoded the complete mitochondrial genomes of two Moenkhausia species, with total lengths of 16,439 and 16,461 bp, respectively. This study enhances genomic resources for Acestrorhamphidae and provides a foundation for investigating evolutionary mechanisms and developing molecular markers.

Does harvest of the European grayling, Thymallus thymallus (Actinopterygii: Salmoniformes: Salmonidae), change over time with different intensity of fish stocking and fishing effort?

open access: yes, 2020
Background. The European grayling, Thymallus thymallus (Linnaeus, 1758), is a fish species of high value in recreational fishing. The monitoring of changes in grayling populations is a high priority in fisheries.

Tails of Biodiversity: Vertebrate Community Assessment in a Neotropical River Basin via eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess vertebrate biodiversity in headwater streams of the Rio Santo Antônio basin, southeastern Brazil, a tributary of the Rio Doce. A total of 119 vertebrate OTUs were identified, with oxidation–reduction potential emerging as the strongest environmental predictor of species richness.

A new species of cyprinoid fish from the Tana River, Kenya (Actinopterygii: Danionidae)

open access: yesZootaxa, 2019
Sampling of streams in the middle reaches of the Tana River Basin in Meru National Park, Kenya, from 2010 to 2012 for an NSF-funded International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) project, resulted in the capture of a number of specimens of what were first thought to be Neobola fluviatilis.  On closer examination the specimens were determined to

A Comparison of the Innate and Adaptive Immune Systems in Cartilaginous Fish, Ray-Finned Fish, and Lobe-Finned Fish

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The immune system is composed of two subsystems—the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. The innate immune system is the first to respond to pathogens and does not retain memory of previous responses.

Complete mitogenomes of five ecologically diverse Australian freshwater fishes

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Complete mitochondrial genome sequences were determined for five species of Australian freshwater fishes, representing a diverse range of ecologies and life histories. Mitogenomes were sequenced and annotated for Craterocephalus stramineus (Atherinidae);

Evolution of the facial musculature in basal ray-finned fishes

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2018
Background The facial musculature is a remarkable anatomical complex involved in vital activities of fishes, such as food capture and gill ventilation.

DNA barcoding of the fishes of the genus Alburnoides (Actinopterygii, Cyprinidae) from Caucasus

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part A, 2016
Spirlins of the genus Alburnoides are widespread fishes, which taxonomy has been rapidly developing in recent years. Mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) was used as DNA barcode marker to create a reference dataset of Caucasian Alburnoides and to test its barcoding efficiency.
