متن کاملPhylogenetic Relationships of Fossil Neotropical Electric Fishes (osteichthyes: Gymnotiformes) from the Upper Miocene of Bolivia
Fossil specimens of Neotropical gymnotiform electric fishes from the Yecua Formation (Upper Miocene, Parana basin, Bolivia) are analyzed in the context of a comprehensive study of gymnotiform relationships. Each fossil is analyzed individually and placed in the phylogeny according to characters it actually possesses. Some of the fossils previously referred to Humboldtichthys kirschbaumi can be ...
متن کاملX1X1X2X2/X1X2Y sex chromosome systems in the Neotropical Gymnotiformes electric fish of the genus Brachyhypopomus
Several types of sex chromosome systems have been recorded among Gymnotiformes, including male and female heterogamety, simple and multiple sex chromosomes, and different mechanisms of origin and evolution. The X1X1X2X2/X1X2Y systems identified in three species of this order are considered homoplasic for the group. In the genus Brachyhypopomus, only B. gauderio presented this type of system. He...
متن کاملData supporting phylogenetic reconstructions of the Neotropical clade Gymnotiformes
Data is presented in support of model-based total evidence (MBTE) phylogenetic reconstructions of the Neotropical clade of Gymnotiformes "Model-based total evidence phylogeny of Neotropical electric knifefishes (Teleostei, Gymnotiformes)" (Tagliacollo et al., 2016) [1]). The MBTE phylogenies were inferred using a comprehensive dataset comprised of six genes (5277 bp) and 223 morphological chara...
متن کاملPariosternarchus amazonensis: a new genus and species of Neotropical electric fish (Gymnotiformes: Apteronotidae) from the Amazon River
Pariosternarchus amazonensis, new genus and species, is described from the Amazon river of Brazil and Peru. It is unique among apteronotids in possessing a wide head that is flattened on its entire ventral surface, and in possessing highly expanded mandibular laterosensory canals. The phylogenetic position of Pariosternarchus is hypothesized by inclusion in a previously published data matrix of...
