Convergent Evolutionary Dead-End and Breakdown of Hard Chorion in Parental-Egg-Care Fish Reproductive Strategies. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fish exhibit a diverse array of reproductive strategies adapted to various ecological niches. Parental egg‐care, including live‐bearing, mouth‐brooding, and male egg protection by brood pouches, represents an effective strategy for ensuring larval survival and has emerged independently in multiple lineages.

DNA barcoding the ichthyofauna of the Beibu Gulf: Implications for fisheries management in a seafood market hub. [PDF]
The fish fauna of the beibu gulf, one of the largest sea food hubs in Southeast Asia, is characterized here by DNA barcoding. The 1080 DNA barcodes analyzed show concordance between morphological identifications and DNA‐based species delimitation. Lower level of diversity detected here compared to historical observations is concordant with the stock ...

Population structure of the seahorse Hippocampus reidi (Syngnathiformes: Syngnathidae) in a Brazilian semi-arid estuary [PDF]
The longsnout seahorse (Hippocampus reidi) is a vulnerable species found along most of the Brazilian coastline, such as semi-arid estuaries with strong rainfall seasonality, hypersalinity, and low depth. To evaluate the population structure of H.
