ABSTRACT The endemic catfish Steindachneridion melanodermatum from the Iguaçu River basin, southern Brazil, is one of the most threatened pimelodid species. Comprehension of its genetic structure is imperative to the formulation of long‐term efficacious conservation strategies. A genetic analysis was conducted on three populations from the lower Iguaçu

ABSTRACT The Neotropical migratory fish Prochilodus nigricans plays a critical ecological and socioeconomic role in the Amazon basin. Nevertheless, little is known about its populations and the genetic diversity pattern of the species. In light of this, the current study investigates the spatial genetic structure and diversity of P.

New cases of supernumerary chromosomes in characiform fishes
Supernumerary chromosomes were described for five species of Neotropical characiform fishes. These extra chromosomes were small, acrocentric and fully heterochromatic in Leporinus friderici from two different localities as well as in Leporinus sp., but ...

Abstract The efficiency of feed use in aquaculture may be improved by integrating the culture of extractive species into fed‐species systems. This study assessed the impact of including curimba (Prochilodus lineatus) in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) production during the grow‐out phase in earthen ponds.

Response of Prochilodus nigricans to flood pulse variation in the central Amazon [PDF]
The influence of the flood pulse on fish populations has been posited, but infrequently tested or quantified. Here, we tested the effect of habitat on population size, using Prochilodus nigricans as a case study species. Floodplain habitat was based on the littoral zone area occupied by P. nigricans

In this study, we present a detailed description of the cranial development of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae), highlighting important topics such as pedomorphic characters and their relationship with ontogeny and phylogeny, as well as ossification sequences unique to the species. Abstract The study of development provides valuable

Fertilizing Capacity of the Cryopreserved Sperm of Prochilodus brevis
Background: Seminal cryopreservation is a technique that optimizes aquacultural production, as it requires less breeding and enables reproduction outside of the breeding season. This technique also helps to preserve species, thus reducing the pressure on the natural stocks.
