Two new species of Aristocleidus (Monogenea) from the gills of the Mexican mojarra Eugerres mexicanus (Perciformes, Gerreidae) from southwestern Mexico [PDF]
Aristocleidus mexicanus n. sp. and Aristocleidus lacantuni n. sp. are described from the gills of the Mexican mojarra Eugerres mexicanus (Gerreidae, Perciformes) from the Rio Lacantún basin, Chiapas State, Mexico. These new species differ from previously

. The oxygen consumption rate of the Mexican cichlid, Cichlasoma urophthalmus Gunther, was determined using closed-circuit respirometry at 20,25,30 and 36°C over a weight range of l·91–116g. Oxygen consumption rates ranged from 31 to 4500mg/kg/h and were slightly higher than for other cichlid species reported.

Abstract. The morphometric relationships, standard length-weight, standard length-width and weight-width for Cichlasoma urophthalmus (Gunther) in the weight range 0.78-262g were: log10 weight =−4.35 + 2.95 × (log10 standard length); log10 width =−0.73 + 0 99 × (log10 Standard length) and log10 width = 0.74 + 0.33 × (log10, weight). Two box graders were

Abstract Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the initial stocking density in larvae of Bay snook, Petenia splendida, and Mexican mojarra, Cichlasoma urophthalmus, using a recirculation system. Five initial stocking densities (0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 20 larvae/L) were evaluated by triplicate for 45 d.

Climate change linked to functional homogenization of a subtropical estuarine system. [PDF]
Distribution shifts in fish species, which have been linked to increasing temperatures, have led to subsequent increases in fish species diversity. In our study, increasing species diversity led to increased functional richness but decreased functional dispersion.

Eugerres castroaguirrei González-Acosta et Rodiles-Hernández, 2013 is a junior synonym of Eugerres mexicanus (Steindachner, 1863) (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Gerreidae) [PDF]
Background. The Lacandon mojarra, Eugerres castroaguirrei González-Acosta et Rodiles-Hernández, 2013, was described from the Grijalva–Usumacinta River basin (Mexico). According to the diagnosis E. castroaguirrei differs from the only other freshwater

Ingestion Rate, Prey Selectivity, and Growth of Larval Vieja zonata (Teleostei: Cichlidae) Co-Fed Rotifers with Cladocerans. [PDF]
The study of fish larval nutrition is important as dietary requirements change significantly with growth. Vieja zonata is a cichlid species that is endemic to Mexico. In this study, we investigated the ingestion rate, prey selectivity, and growth of V. zonata larvae that were fed on prey cultured with and without probiotics.
