Exploring ecohydrology through the lens of local fishers in the Bolivian Amazon
Abstract The natural flow regimes of Andean‐Amazon tributaries play a vital role in sustaining their rich biodiversity and productive local fisheries, but ongoing and proposed alteration of river flow regimes by large dams threatens to negatively impact river ecosystems. Despite its importance, our understanding of how hydrologic variability influences

Eco‐Evo‐Hydraulics: Integrating Fish Evolution Into Ecohydraulics for Conservation
Abstract Riverine fish conservation in eco‐hydraulics is often based on restoring or regulating river habitat to a semi‐natural state. For example, ecohydraulic projects support fish populations by increasing river connectivity through fishways, and by maintaining or restoring natural flow variance to enhance habitat quality and availability.

Invasive Fishes Interact With Temperature to Reshape Community Size Structure Across Climatic Zones
Non‐native fishes are reshaping lacustrine communities across climatic zones worldwide through trophic‐ and temperature‐dependent pathways that are leading to flatter size spectrum exponents and a decline in the total biomass of the native community.

Cellular responses of Prochilodus lineatus hepatocytes after cylindrospermopsin exposure
Cylindrospermopsin is a potent toxicant for eukaryotic cells produced by several cyanobacteria. Recently, primary hepatocyte cultures of Neotropical fish have been established, demonstrating to be a quite efficient in vitro model for cellular toxicology studies.

SEASONAL VARIATION IN SEMINAL QUALITY IN BRAZILIAN BOCACHICO (TELEOSTEI, CHARACIFORMES)
The Brazilian bocachico, Prochilodus brevis, is a rheophilic fish. Although there is evidence that this species shows reproductive seasonality in the wild, in captivity hormonal induction techniques allow semen sampling in different seasons.

Abstract Hydropower dams regulate water flows for millions of downstream inhabitants worldwide, altering water availability. Under a changing climate, flow control is often framed technically and politically as being essential for reducing drought and flood risks. However, it can also disrupt ecological flows, impact livelihoods and erode environmental

ABSTRACT Freshwater habitats face significant human disturbances globally, impacting food security and ecosystems. Protected areas can mitigate biodiversity loss, but limited data on population connectivity hinders conservation management. This study examines pirarucu (Arapaima gigas), a heavily exploited and threatened Amazonian fish, using genomic ...
