Squalius janae, a new species of fish from the Adriatic Sea basin in Slovenia (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae)
Squalius janae, sp. nov., is described from the upper Dragonja River system in the Adriatic Sea basin in Slovenia. The new species is distinguished from other members of the S. cephalus species group by a combination of the following characters: a long head, head length, 29−32% SL, always markedly exceeding body depth; a pointed conical snout; a slightly subterminal mouth, with a clearly projec...
متن کاملSevere consequences of habitat fragmentation on genetic diversity of an endangered Australian freshwater fish: A call for assisted gene flow
Genetic diversity underpins the ability of populations to persist and adapt to environmental changes. Substantial empirical data show that genetic diversity rapidly deteriorates in small and isolated populations due to genetic drift, leading to reduction in adaptive potential and fitness and increase in inbreeding. Assisted gene flow (e.g. via translocations) can reverse these trends, but lack ...
متن کاملExotic Fishes and Freshwater Fish Diversity
Received on 27 July 2000 Accepted on 27 September 2000 Abstract The freshwater aquatic biodiversity is depleting alarmingly due to the introduction of exotic species and other anthropogenic activities. The indiscriminate transfer of exotic fishes has brought about a wide array of problems including extirpation of indigenous species. The exotics compete with the indigenous species for food, habi...
متن کاملPhenotypic and genetic diversity of motile aeromonads isolated from diseased fish and fish farms
Samples from the kidney of 100 diseased fish with signs of haemorrhagic septicemia and 50 samples from outlet water of fish farms were taken aseptically and cultured. In the laboratory, 75 colonies of gram-negative bacteria were biochemically diagnosed as motile aeromonads in our Bacteriology Laboratory Unit using API 20E rapid identification system. The genotype identification using specific p...
متن کاملEvaluating the effects of laboratory protocols on eDNA detection probability for an endangered freshwater fish
The effectiveness and accuracy of detection using environmental DNA (eDNA) is dependent on understanding the influence laboratory methods such as DNA extraction and PCR strategies have on detection probability. Ideally choice of sampling and extraction method will maximize eDNA yield and detection probability. Determining the survey effort required to reach a satisfactory detection probability ...
