Biographical Memoir Carl H. Eigenmann Leonhard
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XVIII—THIRTEENTH MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF CARL H. EIGENMANN 1863-1927 BY LEONHARD STEJNEGER PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1937 CARL H. EIGENMANN * 1863-1927 BY LEON HARD STEJNEGER Carl H. Eigenmann was born on March 9, 1863, in Flehingen, a small village near Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany, the son of Philip and Margaretha (Lieb) Eigenmann. Little is known of his ancestry, but both his physical and his mental character- istics, as we know them, proclaim him a true son of his Suabian fatherland. When fourteen years old he came to Rockport, southern Indiana, with an immigrant uncle and worked his way upward through the local school. He must have applied himself diligently to the English language and the elementary disciplines as taught in those days, for two years after his arrival in America we find him entering the University of Indiana, bent on studying law. At the time of his entrance the traditional course with Latin and Greek still dominated, but in his second year in college it was modified, allowing sophomores to choose between Latin and biology for a year's work. It is significant that the year of Eigenmann's entrance was also that of Dr. David Starr Jordan's appointment as professor of natural history. The latter had already established an enviable reputa- tion as an ichthyologist, and had brought with him from Butler University several enthusiastic students, among them Charles H. Gilbert who, although only twenty years of age, was asso- ciated with him in preparing the manuscript for the "Synopsis of North American Fishes," later published as Bulletin 19 of the United States National Museum. -
Amazon Alive: a Decade of Discoveries 1999-2009
Amazon Alive! A decade of discovery 1999-2009 The Amazon is the planet’s largest rainforest and river basin. It supports countless thousands of species, as well as 30 million people. © Brent Stirton / Getty Images / WWF-UK © Brent Stirton / Getty Images The Amazon is the largest rainforest on Earth. It’s famed for its unrivalled biological diversity, with wildlife that includes jaguars, river dolphins, manatees, giant otters, capybaras, harpy eagles, anacondas and piranhas. The many unique habitats in this globally significant region conceal a wealth of hidden species, which scientists continue to discover at an incredible rate. Between 1999 and 2009, at least 1,200 new species of plants and vertebrates have been discovered in the Amazon biome (see page 6 for a map showing the extent of the region that this spans). The new species include 637 plants, 257 fish, 216 amphibians, 55 reptiles, 16 birds and 39 mammals. In addition, thousands of new invertebrate species have been uncovered. Owing to the sheer number of the latter, these are not covered in detail by this report. This report has tried to be comprehensive in its listing of new plants and vertebrates described from the Amazon biome in the last decade. But for the largest groups of life on Earth, such as invertebrates, such lists do not exist – so the number of new species presented here is no doubt an underestimate.

Notes on the Venezuelan Species of Farlowella (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) R
Notes on the Venezuelan Species of Farlowella (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) R. Shane Linder In 1996, Retzer and Page published their findings on the systematics of the stick catfishes of the genus Farlowella. Prior to this publication, there were no less than 37 described species of Farlowella. Eleven of these species were described from Venezuela. After a careful review of the previously described species, Retzer and Page validated 25 species in the genus, of which, eight are found in Venezuela. Retzer and Page divided the genus into seven species groups: F. curtirostra group. F. mariaelenae group, F. nattereri group, F. acus group, F. amazona group, F. knerii group, and a group of species of uncertain phylogenetic origins. In the paper, they also described six new Farlowella species. Of the above species groups, members of the F. curtirostra, F. mariaelenae, F. nattereri, and F. acus groups are found in Venezuela as well as the species F. oxyrryncha (Kner, 1853) that is of uncertain relation to the known species groups. The F. curtirostra group consists of two species that are restricted to the Lake Maracaibo basin. Interestingly, these are the only two species of Farlowella found in the basin. F. mariaelanae Martin Salazar, 1964 is the only member of its species group and is found throughout the Orinoco drainage and in the Rios Meta and Guaviare in Colombia. From the Amazonian F. nattereri group, only F. odontotumulus Retzer and Page, 1996 is present in the southern most part of Venezuela. The majority of Venezuelan Farlowella belong to the F. acus group that is found throughout the Orinoco basin and in the coastal Rio Yaracuy drainage. -

Chromosomal Distribution of the Retroelements Rex1, Rex3 and Rex6 in Species of the Genus Harttia and Hypostomus (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 17(2): e190010, 2019 Journal homepage: www.scielo.br/ni DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20190010 Published online: 18 July 2019 (ISSN 1982-0224) Copyright © 2019 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Printed: 30 June 2019 (ISSN 1679-6225) Original article Chromosomal distribution of the retroelements Rex1, Rex3 and Rex6 in species of the genus Harttia and Hypostomus (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) Josiane B. Traldi1, Roberto L. Lui2, Juliana de F. Martinez3, Marcelo R. Vicari4, Viviane Nogaroto4, Orlando Moreira Filho3 and Daniel R. Blanco5 The transposable elements (TE) have been widely applied as physical chromosome markers. However, in Loricariidae there are few physical mapping analyses of these elements. Considering the importance of transposable elements for chromosomal evolution and genome organization, this study conducted the physical chromosome mapping of retroelements (RTEs) Rex1, Rex3 and Rex6 in seven species of the genus Harttia and four species of the genus Hypostomus, aiming to better understand the organization and dynamics of genomes of Loricariidae species. The results showed an intense accumulation of RTEs Rex1, Rex3 and Rex6 and dispersed distribution in heterochromatic and euchromatic regions in the genomes of the species studied here. The presence of retroelements in some chromosomal regions suggests their participation in various chromosomal rearrangements. In addition, the intense accumulation of three retroelements in all species of Harttia and Hypostomus, especially in euchromatic regions, can indicate the participation of these elements in the diversification and evolution of these species through the molecular domestication by genomes of hosts, with these sequences being a co-option for new functions.
