Phylogenetic Relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(3): 451-564, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20120027 Phylogenetic relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes) José L. O. Birindelli A phylogenetic analysis based on 311 morphological characters is presented for most species of the Doradidae, all genera of the Auchenipteridae, and representatives of 16 other catfish families. The hypothesis that was derived from the six most parsimonious trees support the monophyly of the South American Doradoidea (Doradidae plus Auchenipteridae), as well as the monophyly of the clade Doradoidea plus the African Mochokidae. In addition, the clade with Sisoroidea plus Aspredinidae was considered sister to Doradoidea plus Mochokidae. Within the Auchenipteridae, the results support the monophyly of the Centromochlinae and Auchenipterinae. The latter is composed of Tocantinsia, and four monophyletic units, two small with Asterophysus and Liosomadoras, and Pseudotatia and Pseudauchenipterus, respectively, and two large ones with the remaining genera. Within the Doradidae, parsimony analysis recovered Wertheimeria as sister to Kalyptodoras, composing a clade sister to all remaining doradids, which include Franciscodoras and two monophyletic groups: Astrodoradinae (plus Acanthodoras and Agamyxis) and Doradinae (new arrangement). Wertheimerinae, new subfamily, is described for Kalyptodoras and Wertheimeria. Doradinae is corroborated as monophyletic and composed of four groups, one including Centrochir and Platydoras, the other with the large-size species of doradids (except Oxydoras), another with Orinocodoras, Rhinodoras, and Rhynchodoras, and another with Oxydoras plus all the fimbriate-barbel doradids. Based on the results, the species of Opsodoras are included in Hemidoras; and Tenellus, new genus, is described to include Nemadoras trimaculatus, N. -
Revision of Tympanopleura Eigenmann (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae) with Description of Two New Species
Neotropical Ichthyology, 13(1): 1-46, 2015 Copyright © 2015 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20130220 Revision of Tympanopleura Eigenmann (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae) with description of two new species Stephen J. Walsh1, Frank Raynner Vasconcelos Ribeiro2 and Lúcia Helena Rapp Py-Daniel3 The Neotropical catfish genus Tympanopleura, previously synonymized within Ageneiosus, is revalidated and included species are reviewed. Six species are recognized, two of which are described as new. Tympanopleura is distinguished from Ageneiosus by having an enlarged gas bladder not strongly encapsulated in bone; a prominent pseudotympanum consisting of an area on the side of the body devoid of epaxial musculature where the gas bladder contacts the internal coelomic wall; short, blunt head without greatly elongated jaws; and smaller adult body size. Species of Tympanopleura are distinguished from each other on the basis of unique meristic, morphometric, and pigmentation differences. Ageneiosus melanopogon and Tympanopleura nigricollis are junior synonyms of Tympanopleura atronasus. Tympanopleura alta is a junior synonym of Tympanopleura brevis. A lectotype is designated for T. brevis. Ageneiosus madeirensis is a junior synonym of Tympanopleura rondoni. Tympanopleura atronasus, T. brevis, T. longipinna, and T. rondoni are relatively widespread in the middle and upper Amazon River basin. Tympanopleura cryptica is described from relatively few specimens collected in the upper portion of the Amazon River basin in Peru and the middle portion of that basin in Brazil. Tympanopleura piperata is distributed in the upper and middle Amazon River basin, as well as in the Essequibo River drainage of Guyana. O gênero de bagres neotropicais Tympanopleura, anteriormente sinonimizado em Ageneiosus, é revalidado e as espécies incluídas são revisadas. -

The new genus belongs to the Proteocephalinae because of the medullary position of the testes, ovary (yet some follicles penetrate to the cortex on the dorsal side), vitelline follicles and uterus. It differs from other proteocephaline genera in the morphology of the scolex, which includes a metascolex composed of two distinct zones: anterior, strongly wrinkled part posterior to the suckers, and posterior, sparsely folded zone. Frezella can also be differentiated by having the internal longitudinal musculature hypertrophied laterally on both sides, the pres- ence of some ovarian follicles in the cortex on the dorsal side and the presence of additional pair of tiny, thin-walled osmoregulatory canals situated slightly dorsomedian to ventral canals. -
Los Peces Del Río Morichal Largo, Estados Monagas Y Anzoátegui, Cuenca Del Río Orinoco, Venezuela
Memoria de la Fundación La Salle de Ciencias Naturales 2003 (“2001”), 156: 5-118 Los peces del río Morichal Largo, estados Monagas y Anzoátegui, Cuenca del río Orinoco, Venezuela María Esther Antonio Cabré y Carlos A. Lasso A. Resumen. Se estudiaron diferentes aspectos taxonómicos sobre la ictiofauna del río Morichal Largo, un tributario del río Orinoco en la región de los llanos orientales de Venezuela. Se presenta una lista de especies e información sobre la diagnosis, coloración (en vivo y ejemplares preservados) y estatus taxonómico de cada una de ellas. Finalmente, se incluyen algunos comentarios ecológicos y bio- geográficos de las comunidades estudiadas. Se identificaron 109 especies agrupadas en nueve órdenes y 29 familias, lo que sitúa al río Morichal Largo como el segundo río de morichal más diverso de la cuenca del Orinoco. Los dos órdenes con el mayor número de especies fueron los Characiformes (47 especies) y Siluriformes (28 especies). Los microcarácidos del género Bryconops, Pristella, Moenkhausia, Hemigrammus e Hyphessobrycon, fueron los grupos más abundantes y ampliamente distribuidos en la cuenca. Las comunidades de morichal muestran una composición íctica muy particular, relacionada con variables fisicoquímicas del agua (aguas claras y ácidas de baja conduc- tividad), con la diversidad espacial, partición del hábitat, aporte de material alóctono, disponibilidad de nichos y depredación. Desde el punto de vista biogeográfico, las comunidades de peces del río Morichal Largo están más relacionadas con la ictiofauna del Escudo Guayanés que con la fauna íctica de la porción sur y oeste de los llanos venezolanos.

The Role of Chromosomal Fusion in the Karyotypic Evolution of the Genus Ageneiosus (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia The role of chromosomal fusion in the karyotypic evolution of the genus Ageneiosus (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae) Roberto Laridondo Lui1, Daniel Rodrigues Blanco1, Juliana de Fátima Martinez1, Vladimir Pavan Margarido2, Paulo Cesar Venere3 and Orlando Moreira Filho1 Ageneiosus is the most widely distributed genus of the family Auchenipteridae among South American river basins. Although chromosome studies in the family are scarce, this genus has the largest number of analyzed species, with 2n = 54 to 56 chromosomes, differing from the rest of the family (2n = 58). This study aimed to analyze Ageneiosus inermis from the Araguaia River basin. The diploid number found was of 56 chromosomes. Heterochromatin was allocated in terminal region of most chromosomes, plus a pericentromeric heterochromatic block in pair 1, a pair distinguished by size in relation to other chromosomes pairs. AgNORs were detected in only one submetacentric chromosome pair, which was confirmed by FISH. 5S rDNA was present in only one metacentric chromosome pair. Hybridization with [TTAGGG]n sequence marked the telomeres of all chromosomes, in addition to an ITS in the proximal region of the short arm of pair 1. The repetitive [GATA]n sequence was dispersed, with preferential location in terminal region of the chromosomes. Ageneiosus has a genomic organization somewhat different when compared to other Auchenipteridae species. Evidences indicate that a chromosomal fusion originated the first metacentric chromosome pair in A. inermis, rearrangement which may be a basal event for the genus. Ageneiosus é o gênero da família Auchenipteridae mais amplamente distribuído em bacias da América do Sul. -

Colombo 5790, 87020-900 Maringá, PR, Brasil. Accepted 3 May, 2011 Investigation into taxonomy at the local and regional level is essential. It is necessary to make an inventory of the local biodiversity to enhance the efforts of the region with respect to scientific research. Argentina is one of the most diverse countries in the world and little is known about the diversity of invertebrate species of ichthyoparasites of inland aquatic ecosystems. The Middle Paraná water system hosts a high diversity of fish and thus has as its correlate a diversity of parasites. The study aims to determine the extent of knowledge of the taxonomy of the Middle Paraná ichthyoparasite system. Publications, electronic databases and libraries were surveyed and specialists were consulted. The results obtained were grouped considering taxonomic placement of host and parasite, and locations of study sites of infection in the host body. A total of 50 species of fish hosts has been recognized, mostly Characiformes and Siluriformes (48 and 40%, respectively). The taxa studied were Monogenea (10%), Cestoda (24%), Digenea (27%), Nematoda (12%), Acanthocephala (3%) and Branchiura (11%); 91 metazoan parasites (at generic and/or specific level) were identified.
