A new species of Peckoltia (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) from the rapids of the Rio Tocantins‐Araguaia basin, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Here, we describe a new species of Peckoltia (Loricariidae; Hypostominae) from the rapids of the Rio Tocantins‐Araguaia basin, previously identified as Peckoltia vittata, using an integrative taxonomy approach. The new species is distinguished from congeners by ventral region presenting diffuse stripes on surface, not presenting spots or ...

Joint effects of elevated copper and temperature in juvenile Tambaqui exposed in black and white waters of the Amazon

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to investigate how exposure to elevated water temperature and metal concentration jointly affect the physiology of Amazonian fish. Aboard a research vessel in the Amazon, we evaluated the effects of water temperature (river T°C at 31.5°C and a + 4°C increase to 35.5°C) and of 3‐h copper (Cu) exposure (up to 600 μg/L) in ...

New insights into Ituglanis (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) diversity in Bahia State, eastern Brazil: Description of a new species and conservation status reappraisal

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The northeastern Atlantic Forest of Brazil harbours a remarkable diversity of species of Trichomycteridae, many of which remain poorly understood. This study describes a new species of Ituglanis, endemic to the Ribeirão São Roque, a stream tributary of Rio Piabanha, an affluent of Rio Colônia basin, Bahia State, Brazil.

Linking rivers, mixing faunas: How artificial connectivity between the Middle and Upper Paraná River basins shapes fish diversity in a tributary of the Itaipu Reservoir, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This work aimed to investigate the distribution and occurrence of fish species along the São Francisco Falso Braço Norte (SFFBN) River basin, a tributary of the Middle Paraná River basin now artificially connected to the Upper Paraná ecoregion, to evaluate how such connectivity may affect the biogeographic distribution and regional composition
