ABSTRACT Aim Our goals were (1) to identify the metacommunity structure of the reef fish fauna as well as the structure of its constituent trophic guilds (invertivores, generalist carnivores, omnivores, herbivores, planktivores and piscivores); (2) to evaluate the extent to which metacommunity compartmentalization is associated with biogeographic ...

The communication between the Patos and Mirim lagoon systems occurs via a natural channel called São Gonçalo. In 1977, a dam was built in this channel to prevent entrance of saline waters from Patos Lagoon estuary into the Mirim Lagoon.

Waardenburg syndrome is a neurocristopathy characterized by a combination of skin and hair depigmentation, and inner ear defects. In the type 4 form, these defects show comorbidity with Hirschsprung disease, a disorder marked by an absence of neural ...

Natural selection is inherently a multivariate phenomenon. The selection pressure on size (natural and artificial) and the age at which selection occurs is likely to induce evolutionary changes in growth rates across the entire life history. However, the

Using Nearshore Fish Communities to Evaluate Eutrophication Impact in Temperate Estuaries
Using fishes as indicators of estuarine degradation is informative in long-term monitoring programs. Beach seine hauls were used in four estuaries that differed in their trophic and tidal status.

Shrinkage of Inland Silverside Larvae Preserved in Ethanol and Formalin
Length measurements of preserved larval fish are necessary in many types of larval fish surveys. If the fixative causes significant shrinkage, then the pre- served lengths cannot be used to indicate accurate live lengths. The objective of this study was to determine how preservation in two different concentrations of for- malin and ethanol affects the ...
