Host-Specific Parasites Reveal the History and Biogeographical Contacts of Their Hosts: The Monogenea of Nearctic Cyprinoid Fishes [PDF]

Biology, 2022
Host-specific parasites exhibit close co-evolutionary associations with their hosts. In the case of fragmented/disjunct host distribution, host-specific parasites may reflect the biogeographical history of regions and/or the role played by contacts of ...

Description and phylogenetic implications of a de novo mitochondrial genome of Rhinichthys atratulus (Teleostei: Leuciscidae) from Connecticut [PDF]

Scientific Reports
We present a de novo mitogenome assembly from a specimen of Rhinichthys atratulus, the Eastern Blacknose Dace, collected in the Connecticut River drainage. R. atratulus is a fish species widely distributed across Atlantic slope drainages from Nova Scotia,

Extensive Multi-Species Hybridization Between Leuciscidae Minnow Species. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic disturbances can disrupt ecosystems and alter species population dynamics. Interspecific hybridization is common between genetically related organisms, especially once reproductive barriers such as spatial isolation have been removed.

A Complicated History of Mitogenome Introgression Among Luxilus Species (Teleostei, Family Leuciscidae) in the Ozark Highlands

Fishes
Hybridization is common among minnows and shiners in the family Leuciscidae, and mitonuclear discordance can reveal evidence of historical hybridization and introgression events that have shaped extant species and populations.

Phylogenomics and classification of Notropis and related shiners (Cypriniformes: Leuciscidae) and the utility of exon capture on lower taxonomic groups [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
North American minnows of the Shiner Clade, within the family Leuciscidae, represent one of the most taxonomically complex clades of the order Cypriniformes due to the large number of taxa coupled with conserved morphologies.

Some Growth Parameters of Five Fish Species in the Lower Sakarya River, Turkey

Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2020
In this study, a total of 1283 samples of five fish species belonging to two families, Cyprinidae and Leuciscidae, were collected from the Lower Sakarya River between June 2017 and May 2018 in order to determine some growth parameters.The samples were ...

Body Size and Local Density Explain Movement Patterns in Stream Fishes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We evaluated whether body size (intrinsic) and intra‐ and interspecific densities (extrinsic) have an impact on the movement rates of four fish species in a small stream. We found that larger individuals of creek chub and green sunfish were more likely to move, which may be explained by their greater physical ability to balance the energetic cost of ...
