The complete mitochondrial genome of Hemigrammus bleheri (Characiformes: Hemigrammus) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Complete mitochondrial genome of the characiform fish Hemigrammus bleheri was characterized in the present study. The whole mitogenome was 17,021 bp in size and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs genes, a control region, and ...

Characterization of Mitochondrial Genomes and Evolutionary Relationships in Two <i>Moenkhausia</i> (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae). [PDF]
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.

Species-specific behaviour and environmental drivers of trap interactions in wild ornamental fishes. [PDF]
Abstract The harvest of animals from the wild is a pervasive selective force, especially in fisheries, where harvesting often targets individuals with specific traits. While most research has focused on large‐scale commercial or recreational fisheries, little attention has been paid to artisanal fisheries, particularly those targeting ornamental ...

Rediscovery of Hemigrammus unilineatus (Gill, 1858) (Characiformes, Characidae) in Ecuador after more than three decades [PDF]
Hemigrammus unilineatus (Gill, 1858) (Characidae) is rediscovered in Yasuní National Park, eastern Ecuador, where it has not been reported since 1987. We present a detailed taxonomic description, including measurements and photographs, as well

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River. [PDF]
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...
