Review of the family Rivulidae (Cyprinodontiformes, Aplocheiloidei) and a molecular and morphological phylogeny of the annual fish genus Austrolebias Costa 1998

The results confirm the monophyly of the genus and of some subgeneric clades already diagnosed, but propose new relationships among them and their species composition, particularly in the subgenus Acrolebias.
Inferring Evolution of Habitat Usage and Body Size in Endangered, Seasonal Cynopoeciline Killifishes from the South American Atlantic Forest through an Integrative Approach (Cyprinodontiformes: Rivulidae)
- Environmental Science, BiologyPloS one

The analysis indicates that the most recent common ancestor of the Cynopoecilini lived in open vegetation habitats of the Atlantic Forest of eastern Brazil and was a miniature species, reaching between 25 and 28 mm of standard length.
Reproductive strategies and chromosomal aberrations affect survival in the Rivuliid fish Hypsolebias sertanejo
- Biology, Environmental ScienceZygote

It is suggested that chromosomal abnormalities described may reduce the survival of H. sertanejo under natural conditions, limiting the perpetuation of this species, and emphasizing the need for more preservation efforts, including artificial propagation and gene banking.

THE EVOLUTION OF DIAPAUSE IN THE KILLIFISH FAMILY RIVULIDAE (ATHERINOMORPHA, CYPRINODONTIFORMES): A MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETIC AND BIOGEOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVE
- BiologyEvolution; international journal of organic evolution
- 1999
The phylogeny reveals two independent origins of developmental diapause within the family Rivulidae, and based on the mtDNA phylogeny, the genera Pterolebias, Rivulus, Pituna, and Plesiolebias are considered nonmonophyletic and warrant taxonomic reassessment.

The molecular phylogeny was used to reconstruct the evolution of major life-history traits such as internal fertilization, copulatory organs, livebearing and placentas in cyprinodontiform fishes.

The suite of adaptations necessary for an annual life history has clearly been lost several times in the course of rivulid evolution and there is a considerable increase in substitution rate in most annual lineages relative to the nonannual Rivulus species.

The present study indicates that the European Oligocene fauna of cyprinodontiform fishes was greatly diversi fied when compared to its present poor fauna, comprising lineages now extinct or restricted to other continents.

The biogeographical analysis of genera of the subfamily Cynolebiasinae using a dispersal-vicariance, event-based parsimony approach indicates that distribution of South American killifishes may be broadly shaped by dispersal events.

A phylogenetic analysis for the West African killifish tribe Callopanchacini indicates that the medially continuous rostral neuromast channel, commonly used to diagnose the tribe, is plesiomorphic, and indicates that, among African aplocheiloids, the annual life cycle style developed once in Callobanchax, and then again independently in the clade containing Fundulopanchax and Nothobranchius.
