Illuminating the Dark: Using eDNA Metabarcoding to Study the Unique Ichthyofauna of the Furnas Formation Sinkholes

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
Using eDNA metabarcoding, we assessed fish diversity in isolated sinkholes in southern Brazil, uncovering signs of local extinction and species persistence. This approach offers a non‐invasive tool for biodiversity assessment and informs conservation efforts in unique karst environments.

Assessing fish diversity in abandoned mining ponds in Madre de Dios, Peru, using environmental DNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
We surveyed four lentic systems in Madre de Dios, Peru: two abandoned mining ponds created by ASGM and two unmined oxbow lakes as a reference to assess fish recolonization. We compared two alternative eDNA processing methods and contrasted our results with historic data from traditional biodiversity monitoring. Our results indicate that eDNA could be a
