The taxonomy of sea catfishes (Ariidae) has had a complex history. A recent checklist catfish species recognized Ariidae as having by far the highest number with uncertain status among siluriform families. One main problems concerns classification and delimitation amphiamerican genus Ariopsis Gill. Some studies have listed under synonymy other genera (e.g., Sciades Müller & Troschel), while systematic revisions recognize valid but pointed out need for clarification composition genus....
The genus Orthopristis includes seven valid species, three from the western Atlantic and five eastern Pacific, while available identification guides taxonomic keys incorrectly recognize ruber as only species found on coast of South America. Efforts to expand inventory fish northern Brazil led two distinct America, based analysis coloration patterns meristic data, well DNA. In present study, limits are reviewed, scapularis is recognized a for northeastern coasts Based intermediate...
ABSTRACT The sciaenid genus Bairdiella comprises a group of relatively small fishes found in inshore waters and estuaries the western Atlantic eastern Pacific. Despite recent analyses phylogenetic relationships Bairdiella, there has been no comprehensive revision alpha taxonomy species genus. ronchus from Atlantic, complex taxonomic history, with four junior synonyms recognized. Based on morphological molecular evidence, this study indicates that B. represents complex. is therefore...
The genus Menticirrhus is widely distributed in the Neotropical region, where its species are common and abundant shallow coastal waters estuaries. diversity, biogeography, evolutionary relationships of still poorly known, due primarily to difficulty differentiating species, given broad similarities their external morphology. present study based on analysis morphological molecular data, with examination type specimens a comprehensive collection non-type from an ample geographic range. These...
In recent years, morphological and molecular studies have improved our understanding about the relationships classification schemes of marine catfishes family Ariidae. A taxonomic issue that is still contentious concerns limits status freshwater Neotropical ariid diversity, in particular species genus Potamarius. The delimitation Potamarius currently uncertain given disjunct distribution Mesoamerica (Potamarius izabalensis, P. nelsoni usumacintae, from Lake Izabal Usumacinta River basins...
Adaptive radiations are typically triggered when a lineage encounters significant range of open niche space (ecological opportunity), stemming from colonisation new areas, extinction competitors or key innovations. The most well-known these is the through either dispersal into regions invasion novel ecological regimes. One aspect opportunity that has rarely been studied, however, extent to which pre-existent act limit diversification in newly colonised adaptive zones. Herein, we show...
Over the past decade, Sea Catfish (Ariidae) genus Cathorops has been focus of a major taxonomic review, which resulted in revalidation five synonymized nominal species, and recognition seven new species. With 21 valid is currently most species-rich Ariidae New World. The principal lacuna knowledge species uncertain status Arius festae Boulenger, 1898, described from Naranjal, Guayas River basin Ecuador. In present study redescribed as based on morphological molecular data.
Centropomus Lacépède, 1802 comprises 13 species of the fishes popularly knows as snooks, distributed in both Atlantic and Pacific coasts America. Despite several studies on group, conflicting taxonomic classifications still exist, including overlapping diagnostic characters, rendering diagnoses extremely difficult. Herein, we review taxonomy to elucidate identities, redefine their assess interspecific relationships based examination 376 specimens. The study included complementary approaches,...
Paragenidens, a new genus of ariid catfishes is proposed to accommodate Arius grandoculis, species previously assigned the Potamarius. Paragenidens grandoculis an endemic catfish categorized as Critically Endangered and probably Extinct from coastal lacustrine systems Espírito Santo Rio de Janeiro states, southeastern Brazil. After more than 50 years without records species, recent fieldwork revealed that extinct at lagoa Juparanã, but still can be found Nova in Linhares municipality, state....
