Molecular phylogenetics, a new classification, and a new genus of the Neotropical fish family Anostomidae (Teleostei: Characiformes) [PDF]
Phylogenetic reconstruction of the Neotropical freshwater fish family Anostomidae using multilocus sequence data from 97 species supports the recognition of three subfamilies: Leporellinae with one genus, Anostominae with six genera, and Leporininae with

Differential expression and novel permeability properties of three aquaporin 8 paralogs from seawater-challenged Atlantic salmon smolts [PDF]
Summary Aquaporins may facilitate transepithelial water absorption in the intestine of seawater (SW) acclimated fish. Here we have characterized three full-length aqp8 paralogs from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).

The Distribution of the Fishes of the Order Ostariophysi [PDF]
The Ostariophysi are Teleostean Fishes in which the air bladder is connected with the internal ear by a chain of ossicles, the Weberian ossicles, which are modified elements of the anterior vertebrae. Although the order is a large and varied one it is undoubtedly natural, and its importance in Zoogeography arises from the fact that it is dominant in ...

Evolutionary Trends of the Pharyngeal Dentition in Cypriniformes (Actinopterygii: Ostariophysi)
The fish order Cypriniformes is one of the most diverse ray-finned fish groups in the world with more than 3000 recognized species. Cypriniformes are characterized by a striking distribution of their dentition: namely the absence of oral teeth and presence of pharyngeal teeth on the last gill arch (fifth ceratobranchial).

Iterative taxonomy reveals a new species of Cambeva (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) with intraspecific variation from the rio Piquiri and Ivaí basin, upper rio Paraná basin, Brazil [PDF]
A new species of Cambeva occurring in the rio Piquiri and Ivaí, upper rio Paraná basin, Brazil, is described using the combination of morphological and molecular data. The new species is distinguished from most congeners by the presence of a notch in the

Comparative gross encephalon morphology in Callichthyidae (Teleostei: Ostariophysi: Siluriformes) [PDF]
ABSTRACT Callichthyidae comprises the subfamilies Callichthyinae and Corydoradinae, both of which are morphologically distinct and monophyletic. Although there is consensus regarding the monophyly of the family, the relationships of about 80% of its species, currently included in the genus Corydoras, remain poorly known.

Complete mitochondrial DNA ofHoplias intermedius(Günther, 1864) (Ostariophysi: Characiformes: Erythrinidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial complete genome (mtDNA) of Hoplias intermedius, commonly known as "traírão" is presented. DNA from a muscle tissue sample was sequenced by next-generation sequencing. To corroborate the results, phylogenetic analysis was performed with MEGA6 to compare the complete mitogenome of H.
