Brain morphology of native and invasive Cichla piquiti, the blue peacock bass (Cichliformes: Cichlidae), with ecomorphological insights

Neotropical Ichthyology
The central nervous system (CNS), composed of the encephalon and spinal cord, regulates physiological, motor, and cognitive processes in vertebrates. In Neotropical fishes, however, encephalon morphology and size remain poorly studied, particularly in ...

Analysis of propagule pressure and genetic diversity in the invasibility of a freshwater apex predator: the peacock bass (genus Cichla) [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2014
An important step in invasive biology is to assess biological variables that could be used to predict invasion success. The study of genetics, evolution, and interactions of invasive and native species in invaded ranges provides a unique opportunity to ...

Coexistence of endemic peacock basses (Cichla) in a Neotropical reservoir (Cichlidae: Cichliformes)

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2022
Abstract Peacock basses (genus Cichla) are predatory fish widely distributed across the Amazon, where two or more species normally coexist in a same drainage. The mechanisms that allow coexistence remain poorly understood, although these species share a number of functional traits and behavioral aspects.
