  • Phylogenetic Relationships Within the Speciose Family Characidae
    Oliveira et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2011, 11:275 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/275 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Phylogenetic relationships within the speciose family Characidae (Teleostei: Ostariophysi: Characiformes) based on multilocus analysis and extensive ingroup sampling Claudio Oliveira1*, Gleisy S Avelino1, Kelly T Abe1, Tatiane C Mariguela1, Ricardo C Benine1, Guillermo Ortí2, Richard P Vari3 and Ricardo M Corrêa e Castro4 Abstract Background: With nearly 1,100 species, the fish family Characidae represents more than half of the species of Characiformes, and is a key component of Neotropical freshwater ecosystems. The composition, phylogeny, and classification of Characidae is currently uncertain, despite significant efforts based on analysis of morphological and molecular data. No consensus about the monophyly of this group or its position within the order Characiformes has been reached, challenged by the fact that many key studies to date have non-overlapping taxonomic representation and focus only on subsets of this diversity. Results: In the present study we propose a new definition of the family Characidae and a hypothesis of relationships for the Characiformes based on phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences of two mitochondrial and three nuclear genes (4,680 base pairs). The sequences were obtained from 211 samples representing 166 genera distributed among all 18 recognized families in the order Characiformes, all 14 recognized subfamilies in the Characidae, plus 56 of the genera so far considered incertae sedis in the Characidae. The phylogeny obtained is robust, with most lineages significantly supported by posterior probabilities in Bayesian analysis, and high bootstrap values from maximum likelihood and parsimony analyses.

According to a statistical analysis of growth curves using the method of maximum likelihood with the Gauss-Markardt algorithm, a marked difference is observed in the growth of the different samples which is attributed to the year of capture rather than to the geographical origin of fishes. It is demonstrated that the main factor affecting growth performances is the length of the rainy season, which corresponds for this species to the feeding period. Key words: Leporinusfriderici; South America; French Guiana; growth; skeletal chronobiology. I. INTRODUCTION In previous studies (Meunier et al., 1985; Lecomte et al., 1985, 1986, 1989), an annulus was shown to be formed at each of the two dry seasons of the year in three species of fish from French Guiana [Leporinusfriderici, Arius proops (Val., 1839), A. couma (Val., 1839)l. These growth zones are particularly obvious on the opercular bone and in the first ray of the pectoral fin. They were used to describe the growth of these species using the von Bertalanffy (1938) model.

  • From Lake Guaíba: Analysis of the Parasite Community
    Parasitology Research https://doi.org/10.1007/s00436-018-5933-4 ORIGINAL PAPER Helminth fauna of Megaleporinus obtusidens (Characiformes: Anostomidae) from Lake Guaíba: analysis of the parasite community E. W. Wendt1 & C. M. Monteiro2 & S. B. Amato3 Received: 7 September 2017 /Accepted: 15 May 2018 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abtract Structure of the helminth community of Megaleporinus obtusidens collected in Lake Guaíba was evaluated, and the results indicated that the diversity of helminth species was probably determined by fish behavior and eating habits. The influence of sex, weight, and standard length of hosts for parasitic indices was also analyzed. Sixteen helminth species were found parasitizing M. obtusidens, including the following: platyhelminths, with the highest richness, represented by one species of Aspidobothrea; four species of Digenea; and eight species of Monogenea; the latter, presented the highest prevalence. Rhinoxenus arietinus,foundin nasal cavities, had the greater abundance, and was the only species classified as core. The prevalence of Urocleidoides paradoxus was significantly influenced by the sex of the host; females had the highest values. Abundance was weakly influenced by fish weight and the body length of the hosts. Urocleidoides sp. had its abundance weakly influenced by the host weight. The other helminths were not influenced by biometric characteristics of the hosts. The total species richness was similar between male and female fish, and both had 14 helminth species of parasites. Keywords Host–parasite relationship . Fish biology . Lake environment .

  • Characiformes: Anostomidae), a Poorly Known Species of Leporinus from the Lowlands of the Central Amazon, Brazil
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(2): 317-326, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20130114 Redescription of Leporinus jamesi (Characiformes: Anostomidae), a poorly known species of Leporinus from the lowlands of the central Amazon, Brazil Júlio C. Garavello1, Heraldo A. Britski2 and José L. O. Birindelli3 The poorly known Leporinus jamesi is redescribed. The species was originally described based on a single specimen collected in the rio Solimões at Manacapuru, in the central Amazon, Brazil. The holotype went missing before the species description was finished and published, and remained lost for more than a hundred years.Leporinus jamesi is distinguished from its congeners by having pectoral and pelvic fins dark, 42 to 45 scales on the lateral line, 16 scale series around the caudal peduncle, a body with two conspicuous dark midlateral blotches (the blotch on the caudal peduncle absent or inconspicuous), and four teeth on the premaxilla and dentary, including a bicuspid symphyseal tooth on the premaxilla. A principal component analysis on morphometric traits between combined samples of L. jamesi and L. amazonicus was performed showing significant morphometric differences between these species. In addition, inaccuracies in Borodin’s descriptions of various species of the genus Leporinus are discussed. Leporinus jamesi, uma espécie pouco conhecida, é redescrita. A espécie foi originalmente descrita com base em um único exemplar procedente do rio Solimões em Manacapuru, na Amazônia central, Brasil. O holótipo da espécie foi perdido antes de sua descrição ter sido concluída e publicada, assim permanecendo por mais de cem anos. Leporinus jamesi distingue-se dos congêneres por apresentar as nadadeiras peitorais e pélvicas escuras, 42 a 45 escamas na linha lateral, 16 séries de escamas ao redor do pedúnculo caudal, duas manchas escuras conspícuas na lateral do corpo (mancha do pedúnculo caudal ausente ou inconspícua) e quatro dentes no pré-maxilar e no dentário , incluindo um dente bicúspide sinfisiano.

  • Feeding Ecology of Leporinus Taeniofasciatus (Characiformes: Anostomidae) Before and After Installation of a Hydroelectric Plant in the Upper Rio Tocantins, Brazil
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 1(1):53-60, 2003 Copyright © 2003 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Feeding ecology of Leporinus taeniofasciatus (Characiformes: Anostomidae) before and after installation of a hydroelectric plant in the upper rio Tocantins, Brazil Miriam P. Albrecht and Erica Pellegrini-Caramaschi The feeding ecology of Leporinus taeniofasciatus in the upper rio Tocantins was characterized before (river phase) and after (reservoir phase) its impoundment by the Serra da Mesa Hydroelectric Dam. The importance of each food item was given by the Alimentary Index (IAi), which combines the frequency of occurrence and volumetric methods. A significant difference in the diet of L. taeniofasciatus between seasons in the river phase, detected by a multivariate analysis of variance, was not kept when the reservoir was formed. Its feeding activity, verified through the percentage of stomachs with different degrees of fullness, was not affected by the impoundment. Leporinus taeniofasciatus was able to incorporate terrestrial food items to its diet when they became abundantly available at the beginning of reservoir formation. Despite this plasticity, secondary factors such as predation and competition might have affected its adaptation in the new, more homogeneous environment. Its diet was not significantly different in the lotic sites between the distinct phases, suggesting that the remaining upstream lotic environments still provide favorable conditions for this species, reinforcing the need to preserve those habitats, as L. taeniofasciatus, which is apparently endemic to the Tocantins basin, may be threatened. A ecologia alimentar de Leporinus taeniofasciatus no alto rio Tocantins foi caracterizada antes (fase rio) e após (fase reservatório) seu represamento pela Usina Hidrelétrica Serra da Mesa.

Characters from fossils have been viewed as less informative or more subjective Keywords: than comparable information from extant taxa. However, fossils are often the continuous trait evolution, character state only known representatives of many higher taxa, including some of the earliest optimization, morphological diversification, forms, and have been important in determining character polarity and filling vertebrate taphonomy morphological gaps. Here we evaluate the influence of fossils on the interpretation of character evolution by comparing estimates of ancestral body Accepted for publication: 22 July 2008 size in fishes (non-tetrapod craniates) from two large and previously unpublished datasets; a palaeontological dataset representing all principal clades from throughout the Phanerozoic, and a macroecological dataset for all 515 families of living (Recent) fishes. Ancestral size was estimated from phylogenetically based (i.e. parsimony) optimization methods. Ancestral size estimates obtained from analysis of extant fish families are five to eight times larger than estimates using fossil members of the same higher taxa.

  • Satellitome Landscape Analysis of Megaleporinus
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Satellitome landscape analysis of Megaleporinus macrocephalus (Teleostei, Anostomidae) reveals Received: 7 August 2018 Accepted: 26 March 2019 intense accumulation of satellite Published: xx xx xxxx sequences on the heteromorphic sex chromosome Ricardo Utsunomia1,2, Duílio Mazzoni Zerbinato de Andrade Silva1, Francisco J. Ruiz-Ruano 2, Caio Augusto Gomes Goes3, Silvana Melo 1, Lucas Peres Ramos1, Claudio Oliveira1, Fábio Porto-Foresti3, Fausto Foresti1 & Diogo Teruo Hashimoto4 The accumulation of repetitive DNA sequences on the sex-limited W or Y chromosomes is a well-known process that is likely triggered by the suppression of recombination between the sex chromosomes, which leads to major diferences in their sizes and genetic content. Here, we report an analysis conducted on the satellitome of Megaleporinus macrocephalus that focuses specifcally on the satDNAs that have been shown to have higher abundances in females and are putatively located on the W chromosome in this species. We characterized 164 satellite families in M. macrocephalus, which is, by far, the most satellite-rich species discovered to date. Subsequently, we mapped 30 satellites, 22 of which were located on the W chromosome, and 14 were shown to exist only on the W chromosome. Finally, we report two simple, quick and reliable methods that can be used for sex identifcation in M. macrocephalus individuals using fn clips or scales, which could be applicable to future studies conducted in the feld of aquaculture. Eukaryotic genomes have a large number of repetitive DNA sequences that include transposable elements (TEs), multigene families and satellite DNAs (satDNAs)1. Tese sequences are highly dynamic at the chromosomal and nucleotide levels and several mechanisms that contribute to their expansion/contraction are known to shape their evolution2.

O. Birindelli1, Heraldo A. Britski2 and Francisco Provenzano3, 4 A new species of Leporinus is described using morphological data and compared to all other species of the family. Specimens were illustrated using digital photograph, measured using digital calipers, and had teeth, scales, and fin rays counted under a stereomicroscope. The new species is distinguished from all other Anostomidae, except Anostomus anostomus, A. brevior, A. ternetzi, Hypomasticus despaxi, Leporinus arcus, and L. striatus, by having four dark longitudinal stripes on body. The new species is distinguished from aforementioned species by having terminal mouth with four teeth on the premaxilla, 12 series of scales around caudal peduncle, and 34 to 36 scales in the lateral line. The new species is remarkably similar to Leporinus arcus, which occurs on the opposite side of Guyana Shield highlands. The new species and L. arcus are possibly closely related to Leporinus gomesi, L. granti, L. lebaili, L. melanostictus, L. nijsseni, and L. santosi. Keywords: Anostomoidea, Phylogeny, South America, Systematics, Taxonomy. Uma espécie nova de Leporinus é descrita usando dados morfológicos e comparações entre todas as espécies da família.
