Environmental DNA Reveals the Fish Community Structure Exhibited Instability and Trend of Miniaturization in the Xijiang River Basin of the Guizhou

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
Monitoring of fish communities is of great significance for the management and sustainability of river ecosystems. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding technology has been demonstrated to be a highly sensitive biomonitoring tool. Nevertheless, it has seldom been tested in mountainous rivers within the geographically complex Karst region.

Spatial Organization of Fish Assemblages and Its Relation to Environmental Factors in the Lower Yalong River, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
Obvious variations were found in fish assemblages depending on the stream order. There were three site groups, one covering the tributaries of the Anning River, one covering the Anning River, and one covering the lower Yalong River. From low‐ to high‐order rivers, the alterations of key species within the fish communities exhibited a turnover pattern ...

Evaluating Environmental Predictors of Fish Community Composition in a Semi‐Arid River System Using a Model‐Based Approach

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 3, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding how the environment shapes species distribution and affects biodiversity patterns is important in ecology and conservation. Environmental stressors like climate change and anthropogenic impacts may lead to a significant decline in aquatic biodiversity.

Distribution and Diversity of Coastal Fish in Fresh and Oligohaline Waters: An Example of the Largest Baltic Sea Estuary of the Neva River

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding how low salinity gradients (0‰–5‰) influence fish life cycles is critical for clarifying principles of fish assemblage formation in estuarine ecosystems. This study is intended to provide a foundation for predicting changes in fish populations amidst ongoing surface salinity decreases in the Baltic Sea. In the Neva River Estuary,
