High trophic niche overlap between sympatric peacock basses (Cichliformes: Cichlidae: Cichla): Concordant findings from three dietary analysis methods

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 1034-1045, August 2026.
Abstract Dietary analysis has contributed to our understanding of animal niches, interspecific interactions, community structure and the flow of matter and energy in food webs. We employed three methods of dietary analysis to estimate trophic niche overlap between two peacock bass species, Cichla cataractae and Cichla ocellaris, across sympatric ...

Disentangling Environmental, Spatial and Niche Influences on Fish Beta Diversity Along the Sandy Beaches of an Amazonian River

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Beta diversity is an important descriptor of community structuring and it plays a crucial role for understanding the patterns and processes shaping biodiversity at multiple spatial extents. We investigated the influence of local, spatial, landscape factors and niche characteristics on fish beta diversity along the Acre River in Acre, Brazil ...

Ultrasonography as a non‐invasive technique to assess the effects of diet on the ovaries of female European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 531-541, July 2026.
Abstract Broodstock management in aquaculture aims to optimise larval production to meet farm demand, which requires precise monitoring of the reproductive cycle. Traditional methods such as histology often require killing of fish, making them unsuitable for monitoring reproductive dynamics at fish level.

Genetic Structure and Conservation Strategies for the Endangered Catfish Steindachneridion melanodermatum (Siluriformes, Pimelodidae) in the Iguaçu River, Brazil

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.
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

Response of Prochilodus nigricans to flood pulse variation in the central Amazon [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
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

Life‐History and Landscape Context Shaping the Spatial Genetic Structure of the Migratory Amazonian Fish Prochilodus nigricans

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
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.
