Twoline Skiffia's Latency to Exit a Refuge and to Locate Food When Socialising With Invaders and Raising Temperatures. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Native twoline skiffia's behaviour in response to increasing temperatures and coexistence with invasive guppies was assessed and results uncovered potential benefits for the native fish, including quicker emergence from shelters and more efficient food location when associating with invasive species.

The introduced Arapaima gigas in the Bolivian Amazon: Trophic position and isotopic niche overlap with native species

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 926-937, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Non‐native fish species may generate major ecological impacts on native assemblages. This study aims to assess the potential impact of the introduced Arapaima gigas on native fish assemblages in two oxbow lakes of the Bolivian Amazon. Stable isotope data were used to determine trophic position (TP) and isotopic niche overlap, to evaluate ...

Does invasion by armored catfish shift trophic ecology of native fishes? Evidence from stable isotope analysis

open access: yesEcology, Volume 104, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Popular as aquarium fish, armored catfishes from South America (Pterygoplichthys spp.) have been introduced and become invasive in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. These ecosystem engineers can deplete basal resources (e.g., periphyton and detritus), with potential negative effects for native fauna. We studied the trophic ecology of

Affordable de novo generation of fish mitogenomes using amplification‐free enrichment of mitochondrial DNA and deep sequencing of long fragments

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 818-832, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Biomonitoring surveys make use of metabarcoding tools to describe the community composition. These studies match their sequencing results against public genomic databases to identify the species. However, mitochondrial genomic reference data are yet incomplete, only a few genes may be available, or the suitability of existing sequence data is ...

Exploring metapopulation‐scale suppression alternatives for a global invader in a river network experiencing climate change

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Invasive species can dramatically alter ecosystems, but eradication is difficult, and suppression is expensive once they are established. Uncertainties in the potential for expansion and impacts by an invader can lead to delayed and inadequate suppression, allowing for establishment.

Barreras geográficas: ¿Intervienen en la composición y distribución longitudinal en la comunidad íctica de un río?

open access: yesGayana, 2020
Diversas son las variables que intervienen en la distribución y ocupación espacio-temporal de peces en un sistema fluvial. En este estudio evaluamos variables geográficas (cascadas, saltos, rápidos, pendiente, altitud) y fisicoquímicas (velocidad de ...
