Overlooked Invaders? Ecological Impacts of Non‐Game, Native Transplant Fishes in the United States

open access: yesFisheries, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 62-71, February 2023., 2023
Nonnative fishes can cause ecological impacts as invasive species, but identifying which nonnative species have harmful impacts is critical to prioritizing management and policy responses. Here, we characterized the state of knowledge on the impacts of a possibly overlooked group of invasive species in the United States: non‐game native transplant ...

Earliest known lepisosteoid extends the range of anatomically modern gars to the Late Jurassic. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2017
International audienceLepisosteoids are known for their evolutionary conservatism, and their body plan can be traced at least as far back as the Early Cretaceous, by which point two families had diverged: Lepisosteidae, known since the Late Cretaceous ...

Development and validation of two environmental DNA assays for American Eel (Anguilla rostrata)

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 175-190, January 2023., 2023
We developed and validated two species‐specific qPCR markers to detect American Eel environmental DNA. Each marker was highly specific (no amplification using 124 differing spp.) and sensitive (LOD and LOQ values of 2.8‐50 copies) to American Eel DNA. In‐situ testing of water samples collected from 35 sites on the East Coast revealed that sites (n = 11)

The North American Freshwater Migratory Fish Database (NAFMFD): Characterizing the migratory life histories of freshwater fishes of Canada, the United States and Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 1193-1203, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Migratory freshwater fishes are those that must access discrete habitats to complete their life cycles. Freshwater fish migrations occur around the world and provide numerous ecosystem services for humans and natural systems; however, many migratory species are in decline globally.

Rise and fall of †Pycnodontiformes: Diversity, competition and extinction of a successful fish clade

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1769-1796, February 2021., 2021
Pycnodontiform lower jaws and body shape separate from ecologically similar fish clades in a morphospace analysis suggesting minimal competition between these groups. Pycnodontiform diversity appears to be little affected by abiotic factors such as sea level and climate but reef loss may be a more significant factor playing into the success of this ...
