Fish distribution across altitudinal gradients in the Upper Paraguay River Basin: Implications for conservation in the Pantanal region

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This paper approaches the patterns in fish distribution across the altitudinal gradient in the Upper Paraguay River basin, from uplands to the floodplain. We compiled more than 75,000 available fish records and registered 342 fish species and your distribution along altitudinal gradient. Floodplain portion have higher species diversity than headwaters,

Backward swimming in elongated‐bodied abyssal demersal fishes: Synaphobranchidae, Macrouridae, and Ophidiidae

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The deep‐sea demersal fish fauna is characterized by a prevalence of elongated‐body forms with long tapering tails. Using baited camera landers at depths of 4500–6300 m in the Pacific Ocean, we observed multiple instances of backward swimming using reverse undulation of the slender body in four species: the cutthroat eel Ilyophis robinsae ...

Restoring mangrove biodiversity: can restored mangroves support fish assemblages comparable to natural mangroves over time?

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Despite the recent global increase in mangrove restoration efforts, our understanding of the outcomes and recovery of biodiversity and re‐establishing functionality, such as productive fish habitat, is limited due to the lack of long‐term monitoring. Here, we used a space‐for‐time approach to investigate whether restored mangroves attain similar fish ...

Aquatic food webs in restored marshes: a stable‐isotope approach in the Gironde estuary (SW France)

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Intertidal marshes are important habitats for nekton. However, historical draining and dyking hampered European coastal wetlands. Marsh restoration is therefore critical not only to improve their capacity to protect coastal lines but also to rehabilitate their ecological functionalities. The benefits of intertidal marsh restoration for nekton community

Complete mitochondrial genome and the phylogenetic position of the tigertooth croaker Otolithes ruber (Perciformes: Sciaenidae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
In this study, the complete mitogenome of the tigertooth croaker Otolithes ruber was first determined. This mitogenome is 16,589 bp in length, and consists of 37 genes with the typical gene order and direction of transcription in vertebrates. The overall

Megalocytivirus: A Review of Epidemiology, Pathogenicity, Immune Evasion, and Prevention Strategies

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Megalocytivirus, a large double‐stranded DNA virus belonging to the Iridoviridae family, has infected over 100 species of fish, leading to significant economic losses in the aquaculture, food, and ornamental fish industries. These viruses exhibit icosahedral symmetry and have diameters ranging from 120 to 200 nm.

Behavioral Patterns, Rather Than Environmental Factors, Shape the Energy Balance of Wintering Chinese Mergansers (Mergus squamatus) in Huangshan

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Our findings have elucidated the energy intake, expenditure, and balance strategies used by Chinese mergansers in response to variations in their wintering habitats, providing valuable insights for conserving and managing habitats critical to the survival of Chinese mergansers and other waterbird species.

Multiple Pathways of Visual Adaptations for Water Column Usage in an Antarctic Adaptive Radiation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
By investigating the diversification of the visual system in notothenioids, we reveal lineages at equivalent depths often depict extremes in eye size with striking convergences in tuning sites between distantly related species that are likely driven by the unusual environmental conditions of the Southern Ocean.
