Abstract: This study provides the most comprehensive Model-Based Total Evidence (MBTE) phylogenetic analyses of the clade Gymnotiformes to date, reappraising relationships using a dataset comprised of six genes (5277bp) and 223 morphological characters, and an ingroup taxon sample including 120 of 212 valid species representing 34 of the 35 extant genera. Our MBTE analyses indicate the two main gymnotiform clades are Gymnotidae and Sternopygoidei, the latter comprised of Rhamphichthyoidea (Rhamphichthyidae+Hypopomidae) … Show more

“…(a) Phylogenetic tree (based on Tagliacollo et al., 2015), trimmed to include 133 species examined for neurocranial morphology. Colored branches indicate heterocephalic variation with blue indicating more dolichocephalic and red more brachycephalic skull shapes (see inset).…”

“…Gymnotiforms have an elongated body, no dorsal, pelvic or adipose fins, and possess systems for electrogenesis and electrosensory that allow communication, navigation and prey location (Albert, Crampton, 2005). In headwaters streams, gymnotiforms that have pulse-type electric organ discharge (EOD), such as those belonging to the families Gymnotidae, Rhamphichthyidae, and Hypopomidae, are the most diverse (Tagliacollo et al, 2016).…”
