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.

A comprehensive overview of fish envenomation and venom toxicity in Brazil [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases
Background: Brazilian waters are home to various venomous fish species, each with its unique venom composition. Although common, envenomation cases are largely underreported, leading to a lack of public health policies for prevention and treatment. Some

Trends in Medicinal Uses of Edible Wild Vertebrates in Brazil. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2017
The use of food medicines is a widespread practice worldwide. In Brazil, such use is often associated with wild animals, mostly focusing on vertebrate species. Here we assessed taxonomic and ecological trends in traditional uses of wild edible vertebrates in the country, through an extensive ethnobiological database analysis. Our results showed that at

Wild animals used as food medicine in Brazil. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2013
The connection between eating and healing is common in traditional folk medical systems, and the multiple possibilities resulting from the combination of biodiversity and culture confer a wealth and complexity in terms of knowledge of the flora and fauna as to their potential as food medicine.

The introduced Arapaima gigas in the Bolivian Amazon: Trophic position and isotopic niche overlap with native species

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 926-937, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Non‐native fish species may generate major ecological impacts on native assemblages. This study aims to assess the potential impact of the introduced Arapaima gigas on native fish assemblages in two oxbow lakes of the Bolivian Amazon. Stable isotope data were used to determine trophic position (TP) and isotopic niche overlap, to evaluate ...

Fisheries in a border area of the Moxos Lowlands (Bolivia) after invasion of Arapaima gigas

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 196-210, April 2023., 2023
We characterized fisheries in the area of the port city of Riberalta (upper Madeira River basin) and evaluated the contribution of an invasive species (Arapaima gigas) to the landings. A. gigas represented 57.6% of the overall economic value of fish in the region.
