Assessing the population structure of Plagioscion squamosissimus (Teleostei, Perciformes, Sciaenidae) from the São Francisco River, Bahia, Brazil, using body morphology and otolith shape signatures. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract The south American silver croaker, Plagioscion squamosissimus, holds significant importance for the artisanal fisheries in the sub‐middle and lower courses of the São Francisco River, located in northeastern Brazil. To investigate the population structure of this species along its longitudinal profile, a total of 150 individuals (50 fish per ...

Multiple genetic lineages of anadromous migratory Mekong catfish Pangasius krempfi revealed by mtDNA control region and cytochrome b. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
We used the control region and cytochrome b to quantify the genetic diversity and to elucidate historical origins and migratory patterns of Pangasius krempfi. Fish were sampled along the Mekong tributaries and coastal areas in the Mekong Delta (Vietnam) and referenced to samples in Pakse (Laos). The results indicate moderate levels of genetic diversity,

Machine learning models accurately predict clades of proteocephalidean tapeworms (Onchoproteocephalidea) based on host and biogeographical data. [PDF]

Cladistics
Abstract Proteocephalids are a cosmopolitan and diverse group of tapeworms (Cestoda) that have colonized vertebrate hosts in freshwater and terrestrial environments. Despite the ubiquity of the group, key macroevolutionary processes that have driven the group's evolution have yet to be identified.

Distribution modelling for Neotropical freshwater stingrays Potamotrygon brachyura and Potamotrygon motoro (Myliobatiformes, Potamotrygonidae) in the Uruguay River basin. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract This study aimed to identify geographical distribution patterns of the giant short‐tailed river stingray Potamotrygon brachyura and the motoro stingray Potamotrygon motoro in the Uruguay River basin. Data on presence/absence of stingrays were based on fishers' knowledge accessed by interviews through expeditions in Brazil, Argentina and ...

Utilização do eugenol como anestésico para o manejo de juvenis de Pintado (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans) = The use of eugenol as an anaesthetic for the handling of Pintado juveniles (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans)

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2006
Neste trabalho, foi avaliada a eficiência do eugenol como anestésico em juvenis de pintado (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans) através de ensaios. No primeiro, os peixes (n=6) foram individualmente expostos a concentrações de 25, 50, 75, 100 mg L-1 de eugenol ...

Diet-tissue discrimination factors of three neotropical freshwater fishes and a comparison of the trophic position

Journal of Limnology, 2023
The trophic discrimination factor (TDF) is a key parameter for stable isotope analysis and due to a lack of species-specific TDFs, mean universal values have been used, resulting in uncertainties about the trophic position of species and a call for more

River Damming Impacts on Fish Habitat and Associated Conservation Measures

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 61, Issue 4, December 2023., 2023
Abstract River damming has brought great benefits to flood mitigation, energy and food production, and will continue to play a significant role in global energy supply, particularly in Asia, Africa, and South America. However, dams have extensively altered global river dynamics, including riverine connectivity, hydrological, thermal, sediment and ...

Dynamic Adaptive Environmental Flows (DAE‐Flows) to Reconcile Long‐Term Ecosystem Demands With Hydropower Objectives

Water Resources Research, Volume 59, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Abstract This study investigates how environmental flows (e‐flows) can be designed as dynamic operating policies to optimize long‐term economic and ecosystem performance in reservoir systems. The main goal is to provide e‐flow solutions that contribute to better preparedness and flexibility of hydro‐systems to face multiyear stress periods, reducing ...
