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 ...

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River. [PDF]
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...

Phylogeny of the Serrasalmidae (Characiformes) based on mitochondrial DNA sequences
Previous studies based on DNA sequences of mitochondrial (mt) rRNA genes showed three main groups within the subfamily Serrasalminae: (1) a "pacu" clade of herbivores (Colossoma, Mylossoma, Piaractus); (2) the "Myleus" clade (Myleus, Mylesinus, Tometes ...

Species polyphyly and mtDNA introgression among three Serrasalmus sister-species [PDF]
Understanding the processes that generated pattern of DNA variation in natural populations may be a difficult task. Since migration and gene flow may superimpose to genetic drift and divergence, evolutionary forces responsible of shared polymorphism may be difficult to identify (Pamilo and Nei, 1988; Nielsen and Wakeley, 2001).
