Abstract:The widespread occurrence of hybridisation in fishes suggests the need to revisit its importance for both a basic understanding of biological principles and practical applications for management and conservation. Despite evidence of its pervasiveness, the phenomenon of hybridisation in fish is not uniformly studied across species and environments. We note how natural hybridisation in pelagic and deep‐sea fish has been rarely reported. For this reason, we carry out an analysis using both standard and phylogenet… Show more
