Use of probiotics in the catfish Sorubim cuspicaudus larviculture

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Biotecnología, 2023
Sorubim cuspicaudus, a migratory catfish distributed in the Magdalena, Sinú, and Catatumbo river basins, is categorized as vulnerable to extinction. Production of fingerlings in controlled environments stands as a strategic conservation approach, and ...

Evolutionary history of the genus Rhamdia (Teleostei: Pimelodidae) in Central America

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2002
We constructed phylogenetic hypotheses for Mesoamerican Rhamdia, the only genus of primary freshwater fish represented by sympatric species across Central America. Phylogenetic relationships were inferred from analysis of 1990 base pairs (bp) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), represented by the complete nucleotide sequences of the cytochrome b (cyt b) and ...

Evolutionary history of Middle American Rhamdia (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae) inferred from comparative mitogenomic data: Insights on historical biogeography and cave colonization in the group

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1501-1518, November 2025.
Investigating the systematics and biogeography of Neotropical catfishes of the genus Rhamdia refined phylogenetic hypotheses, including deep paraphyly of Rhamdia laticauda, supported northward dispersal catalyzed by emergence of the Panamanian Isthmus and imply that cave colonization is widespread, convergent, and recent, with established cave‐dwelling

Evolutionary Relationships Among the Amazonian Catfish Genus Hypophthalmus Cuvier, 1829 (Siluriformes, Pimelodidae) Suggest Diversification During Plio‐Pleistocene

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 840-850, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The present study evaluated the phylogenetic relationships among the six valid species of catfish of the genus Hypophthalmus, estimated the divergence times among the different taxa and assessed the processes that influenced the evolution of the group.

Parasites Are Paramount: Vertical Trophic Positions of Parasitic Catfishes in a Tropical River Food Web

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 4, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The Neotropical catfish family Trichomycteridae contains parasitic fishes that include scale and mucus feeders (subfamily Stegophilinae) and blood feeders (i.e., ‘candirus’, subfamily Vandelliinae). The influence of parasitic catfishes on food web dynamics is unknown.

Karyotype variability in neotropical catfishes of the family Pimelodidae (Teleostei: Siluriformes)

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
Karyotypic data are presented for four species of fish belonging to the Pimelodidae family. These species show a conserved diploid number, 2n = 56 chromosomes, with different karyotypic formulae.

Evaluation of indicators of exposure to contaminants in three species of Colombian catfishes (Pisces: Siluriformes)

open access: yesBiota Colombiana, 2014
Mature specimens of three catfishes: Capitán de la Sabana (Eremophilus mutisii), Bagre Rayado (Pseudoplatystoma orinocoense and P. metaense) and Capaz (Pimelodus grosskopfii) (n=9-27/species) were sampled in the areas of Bogotá River, Puerto López (Meta)

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

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
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,
