Casanovas are liars: behavioral syndromes, sperm competition risk, and the evolution of deceptive male mating behavior in live-bearing fishes. [PDF]
Male reproductive biology can by characterized through competition over mates as well as mate choice. Multiple mating and male mate choice copying, especially in internally fertilizing species, set the stage for increased sperm competition, i.e., sperm ...

Hidden Diversity Hampers Conservation Efforts in a Highly Impacted Neotropical River System. [PDF]
Neotropical Rivers host a highly diverse ichthyofauna, but taxonomic uncertainty prevents appropriate conservation measures. The Doce River Basin (DRB), lying within two Brazilian threatened hotspots (Atlantic Forest and Brazilian Savanna) in south-east ...

Fish population responses to hydrological variation in a seasonal wetland in southeast México [PDF]
Hydrological variation differently affects fish species. In the present study, the response of local populations of 13 fish local species to hydrological variation in a tropical wetland was evaluated. The objectives were to analyze the abundance response

Genetic divergence in the Poecilia sphenops complex in Middle America [PDF]
Based on morphological and allozymic evidence, the Poecilia sphenops complex is an array of at least ten biological species ranging from Mexico to Venezuela (systematics are unclear south of Mexico) and not a single polytypic species as some authors have

Sexual harassment in live-bearing fishes (Poeciliidae): comparing courting and noncourting species [PDF]
Sexual harassment by males has been reported from several live-bearing fishes (Poeciliidae) and has been shown to inflict costs on females. For example, poeciliid females have reduced feeding opportunities when accompanied by a male because females ...

The Adaptive Evolution of Herbivory in Freshwater Systems [PDF]
Herbivory is thought to be nutritionally inefficient relative to carnivory and omnivory. But, herbivory evolved from carnivory in many lineages, suggesting that there are advantages to eating plants.
