Early Biogeography of Otophysi Points to the Neotropics as the Cradle of Characiphysan Fishes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Otophysan fishes represent 70% of living freshwater fishes with 12,000 species. Relationships among their four orders were explored through a dense taxonomic sampling including 529 complete mitochondrial genomes and 4 nuclear genes for 324 species.

Establishing new grid-size-dependent attributes to rank areas of endemism for conservation priorities. [PDF]

Cladistics
Abstract 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.

Morphological and molecular evidence reveals a new species of Characidium from the Ucayali-Urubamba Piedmont, Peru, and novel molecular clades are proposed within the genus. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract A new species of Characidium is described from the Urubamba River basin, within the Ucayali‐Urubamba Piedmont ecoregion, Peru. The new species can be readily distinguished from all congeners, except Characidium cacah, Characidium chicoi, Characidium helmeri, Characidium mirim, Characidium nana, Characidium nupelia, Characidium sterbai ...

The Impact Mechanism of Inter-Basin Water Transfer on Fish Assemblages Was Revealed Using a Model of Terminal Reservoirs. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Using three terminal reservoirs of an inter‐basin water transfer project (IBWT) as a model system, our study revealed an impact mechanism of IBWTs on fish assemblages. Our study found an underestimated effect of IBWTs on fish assemblages through diverted fish accompanying periodic water transfer, and the distance of water transfer, reservoir operation ...

Redescription of Moenkhausia megalops (Eigenmann, 1907), a widespread tetra from the Amazon basin (Characiformes, Characidae)

Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2017
Moenkhausia currently comprises 90 valid species and represents one of the very species-rich genera in Characidae. Most of these species need to be revised since their original descriptions are out-of-date and are uninformative.
