Morphological and histochemical characterization of the digestive tract of the puffer fish Sphoeroides testudineus (Linnaeus 1758) (Tetraodontiformes: Tetraodontidae) [PDF]
Anais Da Academia Brasileira De Ciencias, 2016 Morphological analysis of the digestive tract of Sphoeroides testudineus showed an esophagus with an anterior and a posterior portion, the abdominal pouch. No stomach was observed between the abdominal pouch and the intestine.

Environmental DNA (eDNA) reveals potential for interoceanic fish invasions across the Panama Canal. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 The Panama Canal is a key region for biotic exchange as it connects the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans in Central America. In this study, we used two complementary methods (environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding and gillnetting) to survey fish communities in this unique waterway.

Parasitic crustaceans (Branchiura and Copepoda) parasitizing the gills of puffer fish species (Tetraodontidae) from the coast of Campeche, Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2022 New information on the marine parasitic crustaceans from the Campeche coast, Gulf of Mexico (GoM), can improve our baseline knowledge of the ecology of both the host and parasite by providing, for example, parameters of infection.

Natural products from ethnodirected studies: revisiting the ethnobiology of the zombie poison. [PDF]
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2012 Wade Davis′s study of Haitian “zombification” in the 1980s was a landmark in ethnobiological research. His research was an attempt to trace the origins of reports of “undead” Haitians, focusing on the preparation of the zombification poison. Starting with this influential ethnopharmacological research, this study examines advances in the pharmacology ...

Multidecadal shifts in fish community diversity across a dynamic biogeographic transition zone
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 93-107, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Aim A 21‐year fisheries‐independent monitoring dataset was used to explore fish community diversity across a latitudinal gradient to quantify how diversity has changed and relate those changes in diversity to changes in the abiotic environment.
