The Neotropical freshwater fish fauna is one of the most speciose in the world, in addition to several species to be described yet. In this way, such enormous diversity constitutes a challenge for scientific knowledge, offering many fundamental evolutionary questions to be solved. In this scenario, the fish cytogenetics has provided important advances by using both classical and molecular…
Fishes from the Erythrinidae and Triportheidae families are excellent investigative models for evolutionary cytogenetics. An outstanding collection of karyotypic data and chromosomal markers, particularly from genus Hoplias (Erythrinidae) and Triportheus (Triportheidae) have been obtained in our previous studies. This project will continue the previous one (FAPESP- 2014 / 22532-7), now fo…
Fish species are a model for the analysis and understanding of various evolutionary processes among vertebrates, considering the basal position they occupy in this group. In the Erythrinidae family, Hoplias malabaricus likely represents a species complex, with 02 large evolutionary groups (I and II) concerning their karyotype composition. At least 04 karyomorphs (A-D) comprise the group I…

The Erythrinidae family, although distributed throughout the Neotropical region, is relatively small among the Characiformes fish, comprising only three genera: Hoplias Gill, 1903, Hoplerythrinus Gill, 1895 and Erythrinus Scopoli, 1777. However, this family is broadly diversified concerning the karyotype structure, varying from several karyomorphs associated with the same nominal species …
Hoplias malabaricus is a neotropical freshwater fish that must correspond to a species complex. Conspicuous karyotypic diversification occurs among populations, with seven recognized cytotypes (A-G). Based on their general macrokaryotypic features, the cytotypes can be arranged in two major chromosomal groups, one composed by the cytotypes A, B, C, D (Cluster 1) and another by the cytotyp…
Osteoglossiformes is one of the oldest teleost lineages, with a wide geographic distribution, making this group an interesting subject for systematic, biogeographic and evolutionary studies. Currently, living species of this order are found in several rivers and lakes in South America, Africa, Asia and Australia. Such wide distribution probably contributed to the diversity of the group, w…

The Erythrinidae family, although distributed throughout the Neotropical region, is relatively small among the Characiformes, and has been an excellent model for studies on karyotype and and sex chromosome's evolution. In fact, this family is high diversified in terms of karyotype structure, varying from several karyomoprhs associated with the same nominal species to species groups with a…
