New phylogenetic insights into the African catfish families Mochokidae and Austroglanididae. [PDF]
Abstract Several hundred catfish species (order: Siluriformes) belonging to 11 families inhabit Africa, of which at least six families are endemic to the continent. Although four of those families are well‐known to belong to the ‘Big‐Africa clade’, no previous study has addressed the phylogenetic placement of the endemic African catfish family ...

Hematološki profil farmski uzgajanog Sorubim lima: referentne vrijednosti, stanična morfologija i citokemija. [PDF]
Hematologija podrazumijeva brze i praktične analize koje pomažu dijagnostici poremećene homeostatske ravnoteže u riba. Ovim istraživanjem utvrđeni su referentne vrijednosti morfoloških i citokemijskih obilježja krvnih stanica južnoameričkog soma Sorubim lima (Siluriformes, Pimelodidae), uzgajanog u močvarnim područjima Brazila.

Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) expansion in the Madre de Dios region of the Peruvian Amazon has transformed primary forests into a novel wetland complex of thousands of abandoned mining ponds. Despite their ecological relevance, post‐mining recovery of these systems remains understudied, particularly regarding fish biodiversity ...

Establishing new grid-size-dependent attributes to rank areas of endemism for conservation priorities. [PDF]
Abstract Delineating Areas of Endemism (AEs) is crucial for identifying priority areas for biodiversity conservation in a spatial planning framework. Endemicity Analysis in the NDM/VNDM software is one of the primary methodologies for its delineation.

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