Community Assembly Rules of Fish Assemblages Along a Large COMMUNITY ASSEMBLY RULES OF FISH ASSEMBLAGES ALONG A LARGE TROPICAL RIVER CATCHMENT: A VIEW FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES A Dissertation by EDWIN ORLANDO LÓPEZ DELGADO Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Kirk O. Winemiller Committee Members, Lee Fitzgerald Kevin Conway Michell Lawing Head of Department, David Caldwell May 2019 Major Subject: Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences Copyright 2019 Edwin Orlando López Delgado ABSTRACT Community ecologist have studied biodiversity worldwide principally focusing on species richness. However, little is known about how species composition varies in space, time and even less about the species role in the ecosystem functioning, which is critical for natural resource management and conservation. In this study, I investigated mechanisms underlying community structure and how environmental and spatial factors influence fish taxonomic and functional (α,β) diversity along a longitudinal gradient in a nearly pristine Neotropical river. Standardized surveys were conducted during the low-water period at 34 sites within the Bita River Basin in the Colombian Llanos. Physical, chemical and landscape parameters were recorded at each site. Asymmetric eigenvector maps were used as spatial variables. To examine the relative influence of spatial and environmental variables on taxonomic and functional diversity, a distance-based redundancy analysis (db-RDA) and variation partitioning analysis were conducted. Results of these two facets of biodiversity showed that environmental filtering and stochastic dynamics might be structuring fish communities in this river system. Variation partitioning analyses for both biodiversity facets revealed that environmental features related to in-stream cover might act as filters structuring fish communities, therefore, in order to preserve fish biodiversity in this diverse river, it is crucial that habitat variability (in-stream cover) and connectivity be preserved. ii DEDICATION To my family and friends who gave courage to continue this adventure far from home. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank specially to my Ph.D. advisor, Dr. Kirk Winemiller for all of his help, advice, wisdom, kindness and overall patience while writing this dissertation. Thanks also to my committee members, Drs. A. Michell Lawing, Lee Fitzgerald and Kevin Conway for their valuable comments and suggestions that helped me improve my research. I owe additional thanks to Dr. Francisco Villa and Gladys Reinoso for letting me used their Laboratory in Colombia, and many people who helped me during the field and laboratory work, specially to Drs. Carlos DoNacimento, Donald Charles Thaporn, Juan Gabriel Albornoz and Diana Montoya. Also, I want to thank to all the members of the Winemiller aquatic ecology lab for their support and knowledge. Thanks also go to my friends and colleagues and the department faculty and staff for making my time at Texas A&M University a great experience, and Finally, thanks to my mother, father, my son and wife for their encouragement patience and love. iv CONTRIBUTORS AND FUNDING SOURCES Contributors This work was supervised by a dissertation committee consisting of Professor Kirk Winemiller (advisor) and committee members, Drs. Lee Fitzgerald and Kevin Conway of the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences and Professor A. Michell Lawing, of the Department of Ecosystem Science and Management. The analyses depicted in Chapter 2 were conducted in part by Kirk Winemiller and Francisco Villa Navarro and were published in the Journal Freshwater Biology in 2019 (https://doi.org/10.1111/fwb.13229). All other work conducted for this dissertation was completed by the student independently. Funding Sources Graduate study was supported by a fellowship from COLCIENCIAS Colombia. Dissertation research was founded in part by World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) Colombia, Fundación Omacha, Instituto de Investigación de Recursos Biológicos Alexander von Humboldt and Grupo de Investigación en Zoología de la Universidad el Tolima.

  • Year of the Catfish with the Intention of Writing an Article Relating to Some Aspect of Catfish in the Aquarium on a Monthly Basis
    YYeeaarr ooff tthhee CCaattffiisshh A monthly column about Catfish Talking... (Doradidae) by Derek Tustin (Author’s Note: I started The Year of the Catfish with the intention of writing an article relating to some aspect of Catfish in the aquarium on a monthly basis. Last month, April 2013, I did not. I know this caused a bit of consternation on the part of Klaus Steinhaus, the editor of Tank Talk, and he had to find another article to fill the space. As such, I offer both he and the readers of Tank Talk my sincere apologies and to make up for it, give you a double helping of The Year of the Catfish this month. – Derek P.S. Tustin) o you have that one fish species of fish that you have Agamyxis pectinifrons D an unbridled affinity for? That one special species that just strikes a chord with you that you want to keep no matter what? Perhaps something that you have kept every time the opportunity presents? I think we all have a small group of species that no matter how unattractive other aquarists may find them, we want to keep them. I think you all know by now my absolute fascination with rainbowfish, and the extent that I am willing to go to obtain certain species. Given that, you might be surprised to know that my “soft-spot species” isn’t a rainbowfish, but rather a catfish, specifically the White-Spotted Doradid, Agamyxis pectinifrons. (Or it actually might be… but I’ll get to that in a bit.) Agamyxis pectinifrons is a member of the Doradidae family.

Of the 48 species previously considered valid in the subfamily, only one, Centromochlus steindachneri, was not evaluated in the present study. The phylogenetic analysis generated two most parsimonious trees, each with 202 steps, that support the monophyly of Centromochlinae composed of five valid genera: Glanidium, Gephyromochlus, Gelanoglanis, Centromochlus and Tatia. Although those five genera form a clade sister to the monotypic Pseudotatia, we exclude Pseudotatia from Centromochlinae. The parsimony analysis placed Glanidium (six species) as the sister group to all other species of Centromochlinae. Gephyromochlus contained a single species, Gephyromochlus leopardus, that is sister to the clade Gelanoglanis (five species) + Centromochlus (eight species).

  • Proceedings of the United States National Museum
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM FOR THE YEAR 1S91. Volume XIV. A CATALOGUE OF THE FRESH-WATER FISHES OF SOUTH AMERICA BY Carl H. Eigenmann and Rosa S. Eigenmann. The present paper is an enumeration of the fishes so far recorded from the streams and lakes of South America, with a few preliminary remarks on the extent, peculiarity, and origin of the fauna an<l the division of the ueotropics into provinces. An attempt has been made to include those marine forms which have been found in the rivers beyond brackish water and to exclude those which probably enter fresh waters, bnt have not actually been found in any streams. Central American species are not enumerated. The aim being to present a synopsis of what has been accomplished rather than a list of the species which in our estimation are valid, all the doubtful species are enumerated and the synonyms of each species are given. All the names given to South American fishes prior to 1890 are therefore to be found here. We have endeavored to adopt and incorporate the results of the latest investigations, chiefly those of Giinther, Gill, Cope, Boulenger, Steindachner, and Eigenmann and Eigenmann. Since works of a re- visionary character on South American fishes are few, and many of the species have been recorded but once, many changes in the present list will doubtless become necessary. We have critically reviewed about half of the species enumerated. (See bibliography.) This catalogue was intended to accompany a Catalogue of the Fresh- water Fishes of North America by Dr.
