Do the Historical Biogeography and Evolutionary History of the Digenean Margotrema spp. across Central Mexico Mirror Those of Their Freshwater Fish Hosts (Goodeinae)? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Host-parasite systems provide an ideal platform to study evolution at different levels, including codivergence in a historical biogeography context. In this study we aim to describe biogeographic and codivergent patterns and associated processes of the ...

Evolutionary History of the Live-Bearing Endemic Allotoca diazi Species Complex (Actinopterygii, Goodeinae): Evidence of Founder Effect Events in the Mexican Pre-Hispanic Period [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The evolutionary history of Mexican ichthyofauna has been strongly linked to natural events, and the impact of pre-Hispanic cultures is little known. The live-bearing fish species Allotoca diazi, Allotoca meeki and Allotoca catarinae occur in areas of ...

Disentangling the drivers of diversification in an imperiled group of freshwater fishes (Cyprinodontiformes: Goodeidae) [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018 Background One of the most perplexing questions in evolutionary biology is why some lineages diversify into many species, and others do not. In many cases, ecological opportunity has played an important role, leading to diversification along trophic or ...

The complete mitogenome of the live-bearing fish Xenotoca variata (Bean, 1887) (Actinopterygii: Goodeidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017 The live-bearing fish Xenotoca variata is representative of the viviparous Goodeinae subfamily (Goodeidae) from central Mexico. The mitogenome of the X. variata consist of 37 genes in 16,462 bp. Comparing with X.

Exotic invaders gain foraging benefits by shoaling with native fish [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2014 Freshwater habitats are under increasing threat due to invasions of exotic fish. These invasions typically begin with the introduction of small numbers of individuals unfamiliar with the new habitat.

Realistic nitrate concentrations diminish reproductive indicators in Skiffia lermae, an endemic species in critical endangered status [PDF]
PeerJGoodeinae is a subfamily of critically endangered fish native to central Mexico. Populations of Skiffia lermae, a species belonging to this subfamily, have significantly decreased in the past two decades. A previous study showed that S.

Freshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 698-710, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Invasive species represent a threat to biodiversity and ecosystem services and cost millions of dollars to the global economy. The viviparous Mexican fish known as the tequila splitfin (Zoogoneticus tequila) became extinct in the wild as a consequence of habitat loss and degradation, and interactions with invasive species.
