Establishing new grid-size-dependent attributes to rank areas of endemism for conservation priorities. [PDF]
CladisticsAbstract Delineating Areas of Endemism (AEs) is crucial for identifying priority areas for biodiversity conservation in a spatial planning framework. Endemicity Analysis in the NDM/VNDM software is one of the primary methodologies for its delineation.

The elusive scleral cartilages: Comparative anatomy and development in teleosts and avians. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The sclera of all vertebrate eyes is comprised of connective tissue, with some organisms developing cartilage within this tissue. A review of the cartilages that have been described in the vertebrate sclera and their anatomical relationships is discussed together with their potential homology.

High trophic niche overlap between sympatric peacock basses (Cichliformes: Cichlidae: Cichla): Concordant findings from three dietary analysis methods. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Dietary analysis has contributed to our understanding of animal niches, interspecific interactions, community structure and the flow of matter and energy in food webs. We employed three methods of dietary analysis to estimate trophic niche overlap between two peacock bass species, Cichla cataractae and Cichla ocellaris, across sympatric ...

Ossification of the cranium of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae) with discussion of paedomorphic traits in the genus. [PDF]
J AnatIn this study, we present a detailed description of the cranial development of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae), highlighting important topics such as pedomorphic characters and their relationship with ontogeny and phylogeny, as well as ossification sequences unique to the species. Abstract The study of development provides valuable

Identifying potential emerging invasive non‐native species from the freshwater pet trade
People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1948-1961, December 2023., 2023 Abstract An increasingly globalised world has facilitated the movement of non‐native species (NNS) via the poorly regulated international pet trade. While focus is increasingly being placed on preventative action to combat invasive NNS—often cheaper and less difficult than the management of established populations—successful prevention requires ...

A new Hyphessobrycon (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae) from the rio Mamuru basin, Amazonas State, Brazil [PDF]
Neotropical IchthyologyA new species of Hyphessobrycon from the rio Mamuru basin, Pará State, Brazil, is described. The new species is similar to two congeners, Hyphessobrycon hildae and Hy. taguae, and to a non-congener, Hemigrammus bellottii, by the presence of a conspicuous,

A new cryptic species of Hyphessobrycon Durbin, 1908 (Characiformes, Characidae) from the Eastern Amazon, revealed by integrative taxonomy [PDF]
Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2019 Hyphessobrycon caru sp. nov. is described based on five different and independent methods of species delimitation, making the hypothesis of this new species supported by an integrative taxonomy perspective. This new species has a restricted distribution,
