Ichthyofauna from tributaries of Urubu and Amazonas rivers, Amazonas State, Brazil

Abstract: The Amazonas River basin comprises the world's highest fish species diversity. Anthropogenic interferences in aquatic environments represent a pressure over the maintenance of ecological stability and biodiversity. We inventoried the ichthyofauna of 13 disturbed/modified tributaries of Urubu and Amazonas rivers in the region of the middle Amazon River, between June 2018 and March 2019. A total of 164 species were captured, represented by 11 orders, 37 families and 96 genera. Characiformes was the richest order… Show more

“…Trachelyichthys fish are usually found hiding in aquatic plant roots such as macrophyte banks or in submerged leaf litter (Hercos et al 2009; van der Sleen and Albert 2018). Both T. decaradiatus and T. exilis have been mentioned in fish inventories (DoNascimiento et al 2017;Pereira et al 2020) and show potential for exploitation in the ornamental fish trade (Hercos et al 2009). However, no additional information on their biology or ecology is currently available.…”
