DNA barcoding uncovers two putative new species in Trachelyopterus (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae)
Abstract Trachelyopterus is a cryptic genus within the Neotropical catfish family Auchenipteridae with a complex history of taxonomic revisions. Despite the notable morphological and genetic similarities among its species, some studies suggest that the genus harbours greater diversity than is currently recognized, including additional species yet to be

Abstract A new species of the small‐sized armoured catfish genus Neoplecostomus is described from Neotropical Atlantic coastal drainages, in southeast Brazil. The new species can be readily diagnosed from all congeners by having the first plates of the ventral series reduced in size, rounded and ventrally displaced, resulting in a naked band between ...

Abstract Pyrrhulina australis Eigenmann & Kennedy, 1903, is widely distributed across the main hydrographic basins of South America. The taxonomic integrity of this species is nevertheless challenged by the lack of clear diagnostic characters, its marked geographic variation and the morphological overlap with its congeners. In this context, the present

On the presence of the poorly documented Hypostomus isbrueckeri Reis, Weber & Malabarba, 1990 (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) in Argentina and extension of its distribution range [PDF]
Hypostomus Lacépède is the most speciose loricariid genus, including about 150 valid species (Fricke et al. 2022). It has a wide distribution in the Neotropical basins, occurring from Central America to the Salado River, South of the La Plata River in ...

Consensus on future research directions in the phylum Rotifera
Abstract Rotifers play key roles in aquatic ecosystems, yet significant uncertainty remains about their diversity and evolution, and further evidence is needed to determine how reliably their responses to global change and human impacts can inform conservation.

ABSTRACT The Neotropical migratory fish Prochilodus nigricans plays a critical ecological and socioeconomic role in the Amazon basin. Nevertheless, little is known about its populations and the genetic diversity pattern of the species. In light of this, the current study investigates the spatial genetic structure and diversity of P.
