    Species Assessments The following 787 species in trade were assessed by researchers at the University of Notre Dame using STAIRfish. Only seven were likely to establish in the Great Lakes. Of these seven, only Ictalurus furcatus (blue catfish), Leuciscus idus (ide), Morone saxatilis (striped bass) and Silurus glanis (Wels catfish) were identified as likely to have a high impact.

E-mail: [email protected] 2 Museo de Historia Natural de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. Av. Arenales 1256, Lima 11, Peru. Abstract We report results of an ichthyological survey of the upper Rio Yuruá in southeastern Peru. Collections were made at low water (July-August, 2008) near the headwaters of the Brazilian Rio Juruá. This is the first of four expeditions to the Fitzcarrald Arch - an upland associated with the Miocene-Pliocene rise of the Peruvian Andes - with the goal of comparing the ichthyofauna across the headwaters of the largest tributary basins in the western Amazon (Ucayali, Juruá, Purús and Madeira). We recorded a total of 117 species in 28 families and 10 orders, with all species accompanied by tissue samples preserved in 100% ethanol for subsequent DNA analysis, and high-resolution digital images of voucher specimens with live color to facilitate accurate identification. From interviews with local fishers and comparisons with other ichthyological surveys of the region we estimate the actual diversity of fishes in the upper Juruá to exceed 200 species. Introduction The Yuruá river rises in the department of Ucayali The freshwater f sh fauna of tropical South in Peru and runs into Brazilian territory, where it America is among the richest vertebrate faunas is known as Juruá river.

I fished with my dad countless times and spent a good portion of my youth slogging through creeks chasing anything that moved. I got my first aquarium when I was a sophomore in college. I was amazed by the variety of species available at the local aquarium shops (all non-chain shops back then). There were fishes of every size, shape, color, and demeanor and I set out to learn as much as I could about as many species as possible. This included read- ing and rereading Innes’ Exotic Aquarium Fishes nearly every night. I even got a parttime job at one of the best aquarium shops that I have yet to step foot in, Tideline Aquatics (highly recommended) for anyone with an afternoon to kill in the Charleston, SC area, to feed my addiction to these fishes. The species that attracted me most came from South America.

ZooKeys 881: 53–89. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.881.32055 Abstract This study presents an extensive review of published and unpublished occurrence records of fish species in the Rio Negro drainage system within the Brazilian territory. The data was gathered from two main sources: 1) litterature compilations of species occurrence records, including original descriptions and re- visionary studies; and 2) specimens verification at the INPA fish collection. The results reveal a rich and diversified ichthyofauna, with 1,165 species distributed in 17 orders (+ two incertae sedis), 56 families, and 389 genera. A large portion of the fish fauna (54.3% of the species) is composed of small-sized fishes < 10 cm in standard length.
