  • A New Black Baryancistrus with Blue Sheen from the Upper Orinoco (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)
    Copeia 2009, No. 1, 50–56 A New Black Baryancistrus with Blue Sheen from the Upper Orinoco (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) Nathan K. Lujan1, Mariangeles Arce2, and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Baryancistrus beggini, new species, is described from the upper Rı´o Orinoco and lower portions of its tributaries, the Rı´o Guaviare in Colombia and Rı´o Ventuari in Venezuela. Baryancistrus beggini is unique within Hypostominae in having a uniformly dark black to brown base color with a blue sheen in life, and the first three to five plates of the midventral series strongly bent, forming a distinctive keel above the pectoral fins along each side of the body. It is further distinguished by having a naked abdomen, two to three symmetrical and ordered predorsal plate rows including the nuchal plate, and the last dorsal-fin ray adnate with adipose fin via a posterior membrane that extends beyond the preadipose plate up to half the length of the adipose-fin spine. Se describe una nueva especie, Baryancistrus beggini, del alto Rı´o Orinoco y las partes bajas de sus afluentes: el rı´o Guaviare en Colombia, y el rı´o Ventuari en Venezuela. Baryancistrus beggini es la u´ nica especie entre los Hypostominae que presenta fondo negro oscuro a marro´ n sin marcas, con brillo azuloso en ejemplares vivos. Las primeras tres a cinco placas de la serie medioventral esta´n fuertemente dobladas, formando una quilla notable por encima de las aletas pectorales en cada lado del cuerpo. Baryancistrus beggini se distingue tambie´n por tener el abdomen desnudo, dos o tres hileras de placas predorsales sime´tricas y ordenadas (incluyendo la placa nucal) y el u´ ltimo radio de la aleta dorsal adherido a la adiposa a trave´s de una membrana que se extiende posteriormente, sobrepasando la placa preadiposa y llegando hasta la mitad de la espina adiposa.

  • Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the Western Guiana Shield
    Copeia 2011, No. 2, 216–225 Two New Genera and Species of Ancistrini (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the Western Guiana Shield Nathan K. Lujan1,2 and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Two new ancistrin genera and species are described from main channels and tributaries of the upper Orinoco River in Amazonas, Venezuela. Micracanthicus vandragti is black with white spots and distinguished by its small body-size, large gas-bladder capsules, and highly protrusible mandibles with short tooth cups and five to eight long teeth per tooth cup. The known range of Micracanthicus vandragti is restricted to the lower Ventuari River and portions of the Orinoco River near its rocky, anastomose confluence with the Ventuari River. Soromonichthys stearleyi is green with small yellow-gold spots on the head and thin vertical bars on the body and has long dentary and premaxillary tooth cups with 39–69 teeth per tooth cup. It is distinguished by its coloration and by its unique pattern of plate loss on the snout: plates absent from mesethmoid surface and anteriormost margin of snout. Soromonichthys stearleyi is known only from Soromoni Creek, a northern tributary of the upper Orinoco draining southern slopes of Mount Duida.

  • Is Diet Correlated with Feeding Morphology in Neotropical Suckermouth Armoured Catfishes (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)?
    Is Diet Correlated with Feeding Morphology in Neotropical Suckermouth Armoured Catfishes (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)? by Stéphanie L. Lefebvre A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science Ecology and Evolutionary Biology University of Toronto © Copyright by Stephanie L. Lefebvre 2014 Is Diet Correlated with Feeding Morphology in Neotropical Suckermouth Armoured Catfishes (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)? Stéphanie L. Lefebvre Masters of Science Ecology and Evolutionary Biology University of Toronto 2014 Abstract The suckermouth armoured catfishes (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) are a diverse group of predominantly detritivorous fishes inhabiting rivers of South and Central America. Their distinct jaws are specialized for scraping a wide range of substrate. Though it is hypothesized that specialization of loricariid feeding morphology may have played a role in their diversification, little is known about the ecological and evolutionary processes involved. The present study quantifies variation in jaw functional traits and body morphology in a phylogenetic context. Morphological variation was compared to species’ relative position in assemblage isotope space (for both δ13C and δ15N) to test for correlations between diet and feeding morphology. Results show that although jaw functional traits are decoupled from body morphology, both are correlated with δ13C values. Partitioning of terrestrial and aquatic resources can be explained by both jaw functional traits and body morphology, however further partitioning of diet is only attributed to the former. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Nathan K. Lujan for providing isotope and jaw data, along with a wealth of information about loricariids, and for organizing the provision of specimens from both the Auburn University Museum Fish Collection (AUM) and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia (ANSP).

  • Baryancistrus Demantoidesand Hemiancistrus Subviridis, Two New Uniquely Colored Species of Catfishes from Venezuela
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 3(4):533-542, 2005 Copyright © 2005 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Baryancistrus demantoides and Hemiancistrus subviridis, two new uniquely colored species of catfishes from Venezuela (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) David C. Werneke*, Mark H. Sabaj**, Nathan K. Lujan*, and Jonathan W. Armbruster*** Baryancistrus demantoides and Hemiancistrus subviridis are two new species of loricariids from southern Venezuela with an olive ground coloration and white to cream-colored or golden-yellow spots. Baryancistrus demantoides is known only from the upper río Orinoco drainage while H. subviridis is also known from the río Casiquiare drainage. In addition to its coloration, B. demantoides can be distinguished from all other ancistrins by having the dorsal and adipose fins connected by an expanded posterior section of the dorsal-fin membrane, golden-yellow spots confined to the anterior portion of the body, and greater than 30 teeth per jaw ramus. Hemiancistrus subviridis can be separated from all other ancistrins by coloration, lacking a connection between the dorsal and adipose fins and having less than 30 teeth per jaw raSmus. Baryancistrus demantoides e Hemiancistrus subviridis são duas espécies novas de loricariídeos do sul da Venezuela, de cor de fundo verde-oliva e manchas brancas a creme ou amarelo-douradas. Baryancistrus demantoides é conhecida somente da bacia do rio Orinoco superior, enquanto H. subviridis é também conhecida da baFcia do rio Casiquiare. Além da coloração, B. demantoides pode ser distinguido de todos os outros ancistríneos por ter as nadadeiras dorsal e adiposa conectadas por uma secção posterior expandida da membrana da nadadeira dorsal, manchas amarelo-douradas restritas à porção anterior do corpo, e mais de 30 dentes por ramo mandibular.

(August 2012) Sandra Bibiana Correa Valencia, B.S., Universidad del Valle; M.S., University of Florida Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kirk Winemiller Diverse fish species consume fruits and seeds in the Neotropics, in particular in the lowland reaches of large rivers, such as the Amazon, Orinoco, and Paraná in South America. Floodplains of the Amazon River and its lowland tributaries are characterized by marked hydrological seasonality and diverse assemblages of frugivorous fishes, including closely related and morphologically similar species of several characiform families. Here, I investigated whether or not these fishes are capable of detecting fluctuations in food availability and if they are, how they adjust their feeding strategies.

Gen. Rodrigo Otávio, 3000, CEP 69077-000, Manaus, AM, Brazil e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Introduction: The floodplains of the large Amazonian rivers are very productive as a result of seasonal fluctuations of water levels. This favors the fishes as they are provided with a wide range of habitats and food resources; Aim: In this study, we identified the trophic structure of fish assemblages in the upper river Urucu area (State of Amazonas – Brazil), observing seasonal changes determined by the hydrological cycle; Methods: Samples were collected with the aid of gillnets, during the flood season (April/2008) and the dry season (August/2008) in areas upstream and downstream of ports of the Urucu river within the municipality of Coari, Amazonas, Brazil; Results: 902 individuals of seven orders, 23 families and 82 species were collected. Fishes were more abundant in the dry season than in the flood season, and the piscivores and carnivores (Serrasalumus rhombeus and Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) were the most significant trophic categories in the dry season whereas piscivores and insectivores (Serrasalumus rhombeus, Bryconops alburnoides and Dianema urostriatum) were more abundant in the flood season.

  • Hypostomus Bolivianus ERSS
    Hypostomus bolivianus (a catfish, no common name) Ecological Risk Screening Summary U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, January 2013 Revised, September 2018 Web Version, 2/1/2019 1 Native Range and Status in the United States Native Range From Carvajal et al. (2016): “This species occurs in the Mamoré river basin in the Bolivian Amazon (Lauzanne et al. 1991, Chernoff et al. 2000, Carvajal-Vallejos and Zeballos Fernández 2011). Its type locality is the Popoi river, in the Upper Beni River, Bolivia (Pearson 1924).” Status in the United States This species has not been reported as introduced or established in the United States. However, unidentified members of the genus are established in the United States. From Nico et al. (2018): “Several morphologically distinct but unidentified Hypostomus species have been recorded as established in the United States: these included populations in Indian Springs in Nevada; Hillsborough County in Florida; and the San Antonio River and San Felipe Creek in Texas (Courtenay and Deacon 1982; Courtenay et al. 1984, 1986; Courtenay and Stauffer 1990; Page and Burr 1991; López-Fernández and Winemiller 2005). A population of an unidentified 1 Hypostomus species is firmly established in Hawaii (Devick 1991a, b). Reported from Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Louisiana, and Pennsylvania. Failed in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania.” This species was not found for sale from U.S.-based online aquarium retailers and it does not appear to be in trade in the United States. Means of Introduction into the United States This species has not been reported as introduced or established in the United States. However, unidentified members of the genus are established in the United States.
