“…In addition, there are an alarming number of cases of species introduced by stocking, sport fishing, live bait use, control of mosquitoes, and fishkeeping (see Daga et al 2015;Ribeiro et al 2017). For instance, curvina (Plagioscion squamosissimus), a species introduced for stocking purposes, poses a threat to the other piscivorous species in the Piquiri River basin because it feeds on the same sources and is, most likely, a strong competitor (Pereira et al 2015).…”

“…Esse isolamento das espécies fez com que cerca de 70% das espécies de peixes nativos do rio Iguaçu não possa ser encontrada em nenhuma outra área do planeta (Baumgartner et al, 2012). Recentemente, a espécie Salminus brasiliensis, popularmente conhecida como "dourado", foi introduzida no rio Iguaçu (Gubiani et al, 2010;Ribeiro et al, 2017). O dourado é um predador visual eficiente, se alimenta de uma grande variedade de presas e é extremamente apreciado na pesca (Vitule et al, 2014), potencial motivo pelo qual a espécie foi introduzida nesse rio.…”

“…Loss of biodiversity is not only related to habitat fragmentation, climate change and pollution (Reis et al., 2016; Vitule et al, 2017), but also to the introduction of non‐native species (Mazor et al., 2018), especially in freshwater environments (Bezerra et al., 2019). To combat the depletion of native fish stocks, Brazilian lawmakers have developed initiatives aimed at the conservation and preservation of a few species linked to sport fishing (Ribeiro et al., 2017; Vitule, Bornatowski Freire, & Abilhoa, 2014).…”

“…It is crucial that laws protecting aquatic species are debated between the public, academic and legislative spheres so that laws designed to protect species should be specific only to the watershed to which they are native. In the Iguaçu River, S. brasiliensis was registered for the first time in 2008 (Gubiani et al., 2010), and its population is growing (Ribeiro et al., 2017). Accordingly, Law No.…”
