Abstract The genus Hisonotus was resurrected as a member of the tribe Otothyrini (actually subfamily Otothyrinae). However, phylogenetic studies based on morphological and molecular data showed that Hisonotus is not monophyletic and independent lineages can be identified, such as the group composed of the species Hisonotus insperatus, Hisonotus luteofrenatus, Hisonotus oliveirai, Hisonotus paresi and Hisonotus piracanjuba, a lineage unrelated to that containing the type species of the genus…

New small-sized species of Astyanax (Characiformes: Characidae) from the upper rio Paraguai basin, Brazil, with discussion on its generic allocation

The discovery of a new species of Astyanax in an underwater tourist point relatively near a large urban center underscores that even fish species daily observed by hundreds of people in limpid waters may lack a formal taxonomic identity.

New species of Curculionichthys (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the eastern Guiana Shield.

A new species of Curculionichthys from northern Brazil that can be distinguished from congeners by the irregular concentration of chromatophores that cover the anal-fin origin and adjacent region, and distal portions of the first unbranched anal- fin ray is described.

A new species of Curculionichthys (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the north edge of the Brazilian Shield, lower Amazon basin

A close examination of the species of Curculionichthys revealed the presence of hyperthrophied odontodes on both dorsal and ventral margins of the snout tip, which are illustrated by electronic microscopy.

“More than meets the eye”: phylogeographic inferences and remarkable cryptic diversity and in endemic catfish Parotocinclus (Loricariidae: Hypoptopomatinae) from neglected and impacted basins in South America

The phylogenetic reconstruction, haplotype network and species delimitation algorithms revealed three conspicuous and restricted molecular operational units (MOTUs) within P. cristatus, resulting in deep genetic divergence when compared to the other lineages.

The increase in the knowledge of Neotropical fish diversity was associated with the significant growth of hypotheses about their evolution and contributed to the understanding of the phylogenetic history of fish comunities and their structure in small streams.

Inventory of the fish fauna from Ivaí River basin, Paraná State, Brazil

The Ivai River basin is subjected to various anthropogenic interferences such as pollution, eutrophication, siltation, construction of dams, flood control, fisheries, species introduction and release of fingerlings, which raise concerns about biodiversity of Brazilian inland waters especially regarding the fish fauna.

A New Species of Cascudinho of the Genus Hisonotus (Siluriformes: Loricariidae: Hypoptopomatinae) from the Upper Rio Tapajós Basin, Brazil

The new taxon is distinguished from its congeners by a unique color pattern, whose most striking features are: two elliptical white spots, anterior to nostrils; predorsal region darkly pigmented with five unpigmented spots arranged as anteriorly pointed chevron; and a rostrocaudally elongate cross along most of the caudal peduncle.

Systematics of Pseudotothyris (Loricariidae: Hypoptopomatinae)

A phylogenetic analysis and taxonomic revision of the Pseudotothyris genus are performed, which corroborate the monophyly of the genus, which is supported by a uniquely derived synapomorphy: anterior snout odontodes well developed only on dorsal region.
