The Mexican freshwater fish that are at risk orextinct are listed by family, state,basin/region, and causes of risk. Of the 506known species, 168 are at some level of risk,and 25 are believed to be extinct. States withthe most reports are: Chihuahua (46); Coahuila(35); Nuevo León (20); Sonora (19); Durango(18); and Tamaulipas (15). With the exceptionof Sonora, these states are largely located inthe Río Bravo region, and are all arid orsemiarid. Most extinctions have occurred inNuevo León (8) and Coahuila (7). The maincauses of risk reported are: habitat reductionor alteration (86); water depletion (83);presence of exotics (76); small or decliningpopulation (73); and small habitat (57). Allof which result in very local endemism. Thesecauses of risk develop easily when thedistribution is small. The critical factor isaridity, which is associated withdesertization. Water conflicts were to beexpected, and the result is resource nonsustainability. 相似文献

Lake Valencia in north central Venezuela, one of the largest natural inland bodies of water north of the equator, is undergoing a very rapid deterioration process as a consequence of anthropogenically induced changes. At the Ichthyology Laboratory of Instituto de Zoología Tropical, we have been studying the fishes of the northern tributaries of Lake Valencia since the early 1990's. As a result of collections made in seven northern tributaries of the basin from 1990 to 1993, we have identified 15 species of fish in 6 families. Comparison of our results with those of several authors who have collected in the area since the 1920's, indicate a 59.5%decrease in fish diversity in a 30 year span. The Lake Valencia region has undergone a rapid, considerable industrial and urban growth in recent years. This rapid increment in population size has produced a vast contamination of the lake and its tributaries by activities associated with a growing population. This study will contribute to the understanding of the biodiversity of the region by recording changes in the characteristics of the ichthyofauna in a highly modified environment. 相似文献

The wide distribution of the Neotropical freshwater catfish Rhamdia offers an excellent opportunity to investigate the historical processes responsible for modeling South America’s hydrogeological structure. We used sequences from cis-Andean and Mesoamerican Rhamdia species to reconstruct and estimate divergence times among cis-Andean lineages, correlating the results with known geological events. Species delimitation methods based on distance (DNA barcoding and BIN) and coalescence (GMYC) approaches identified nine well-supported lineages from the cis-Andean region from sequences available in the BOLD dataset. The cis-Andean Rhamdia lineages diversification process began in Eocene and represented the split between cis-Andean and Mesoamerican clades. The cis-Andean clade contains two principal groups: Northwest clade (MOTUs from Amazon, Essequibo, Paraguay, and Itapecuru basins) and Southeast clade (Eastern Brazilian shield basins (Paraná, Uruguay, Iguaçu, and São Francisco) plus eastern coastal basins). The diversification of the cis-Andean Rhamdia lineages results from vicariance and geodispersion events, which played a key role in the current intricate distribution pattern of the Rhamdia lineages. The wide geographical distribution and large size of the specimens make it attractive to cultivate in different countries of the Neotropical region. The lineages delimitation minimizes identification mistakes, unintentional crossings by aquaculture, and reduces natural stocks contamination. 相似文献

Following the complete eradication of the alien piscivorous perch Perca fluviatilis from a potable reservoir, the abundance of the endemic western minnow Galaxias occidentalis, which was previously undetectable prior to the initial eradication event, increased dramatically. The study reveals the potential of reservoirs to act as ecological refuges and has implications for understanding the relative effects of alien fishes v. habitat alteration on native freshwater fishes. 相似文献

In the Yucatán Peninsula, spider monkeys Ateles geoffroyi yucatanensis are generally found in two contrasting conditions: large tracts of conserved forest or small fragments surrounded by human populations. In the present study, we analyzed fecal cortisol levels of spider monkeys to investigate whether environmental conditions have an influence on stress; specifically, we compared fecal cortisol across individuals living in conserved forests, fragmented forests and captive conditions (zoos and pets). Radioimmunoanalysis of fecal samples from 121 individuals indicated significant differences in mean cortisol for A. g. yucatanensis based on habitat type, with the lowest levels found in the conserved forest condition. The higher cortisol levels in both fragmented forest populations and in captive individuals may be the result of metabolic and behavioral stress. The mean male fecal cortisol concentration was significantly higher than that of females, and the fecal cortisol concentration was higher in the dry season compared with the wet season in a conserved habitat. Therefore, we emphasize the importance of considering sex and seasonality when monitoring fecal cortisol concentrations of spider monkeys, and more generally of frugivores, as they face a seasonal variation in food availability. Finally, our results suggest that forest fragmentation may create long-term stressors for spider monkeys, affecting the viability of populations living under such conditions. 相似文献

1. An experimental approach, manually pollinating all the flowers of individual plants, was used to measure the effect of pollen limitation on female fecundity of the hummingbird-pollinated perennial shrub Echeveria gibbiflora in the ecological preserve of Pedregal de San Angel around México City, México. Eleven randomly selected plants were manually over-pollinated in all their flowers and another 11 were left to be freely visited by natural pollinators.
2. Manually pollinated plants produced significantly more fruit and seeds than control plants (1·38 and 1·74 times, respectively). There was no change in average mass of fruits.
3. Considering individual fruit production per plant sampled three times in one season, decreases in fruit mass and average seeds per fruit were observed within the same reproductive season for both treatments. For the manually pollinated plants, from the start to the end of the reproductive season, seed set decreased 55·9%; while in control plants seed set decreased 33·4% in the same period. For both treatments, average fruit mass decreased 26%.
4. Vegetative growth was not significantly different between control and experimental plants but hand-pollinated plants showed a smaller reproduction probability for the following year.
5. It is concluded that female fecundity in E. gibbiflora is limited by pollen early in the reproductive season and by resources in the middle and the end of the season. 相似文献

We used mitochondrial DNA sequences from three gene regions and two tRNAs (ND4, tRNA-HIS-SER, 12S, and 16S rDNA) to investigate the historical ecology of the New World pitviper clade Agkistrodon, with emphasis on the disjunct subspecies of the cantil, A. bilineatus. We found strong evidence that the copperhead (A. contortrix) is basal to its congeners, and that the cottonmouth (A. piscivorus) is basal to cantils. Phylogeography and natural history of the living terminal taxa imply that Agkistrodon primitively occupied relatively temperate habitats, with subsequent evolution of tropicality in ancestral A. bilineatus. Our best supported phylogeny rejects three gulf arc scenarios for the biogeography of A. bilineatus. We find significant statistical support for an initial divergence between populations on the east and west coasts of México and subsequent occupancy of the Yucatán Peninsula, by way of subhumid corridors in northern Central America. Based on phylogenetic relationships, morphological and molecular divergence, and allopatry we elevate A. b. taylori of northeastern México to species status. Taylor's cantil is likely threatened by habitat destruction and small geographical range, and we offer recommendations for its conservation and management. 相似文献

In order to test the congruence of genetic data to the morphologically defined Neotropical catfish genera Tympanopleura and Ageneiosus and explore species diversity, we generated 17 DNA barcodes from five of six species of Tympanopleura and 12 of 13 species of Ageneiosus. To discriminate limits between species, an automatic barcode gap discovery (ABGD), a generalised mixed yule-coalescent model (GYMC) and fixed distance thresholds Kimura two-parameter (K2P; 3%) were used to discriminate putative species limits from the DNA barcodes. The ABGD, GMYC and K2P methods agreed by each generating 13 clusters: six in Tympanopleura (five nominal plus one undescribed species) and seven in Ageneiosus. These clusters corresponded broadly to the described species, except in the case of the Ageneiosus ucayalensis group (A. akamai, A. dentatus, A. intrusus, A. ucayalensis, A. uranophthalmus and A. vittatus). Haplotype sharing and low divergences may have prevented molecular methods from distinguishing these species. We hypothesise that this is the result of a recent radiation of a sympatric species group distributed throughout the Amazon Basin. One putative new species of Tympanopleura was also supported by the molecular data. These results taken together highlight the utility of molecular methods such as DNA barcoding in understanding patterns of diversification across large geographic areas and in recognising overlooked diversity. 相似文献

This study documents the rediscovery of Acanthobrama hadiyahensis in Saudi Arabia and the first report since it was described in 1983. One female and one juvenile were collected from Qusaiba'a Dam, in the Al‐Thamad area of Khaybar City. Threats facing this species are the same as those facing all other freshwater fishes in Arabia, mainly habitat loss and damming. 相似文献

The ichthyofauna of the freshwater system of Southeast Asia is extremely diverse. A recent estimate of about 1000 species is probably an understatement. More than 10 new species are being added to the list annually. The distribution pattern of the Southeast Asian freshwater fishes can be divided into five zoogeographic regions. The first one is the Salween basin in Burma, with fishes mainly of the Indian subcontinent origin such as Amblypharyngodon atkinsoni, Bangana almorae and Brachydanio jayarami. The second zoogeographic area is the Mekong, Chao Phraya and Mae Khlong drainages which harbour fishes typical of the mainland of Southeast Asia such as Acanthorhodeus deignani, Barbichthys nitidus and Cirrhinus siamensis. The Malay Peninsula is the third region whose species composition is heavily influenced by the Siamese (such as Homaloptera smithi, Tuberoschistura baenzigeri and Botia beauforti) and Indonesian (such as Botia hymenophysa, Luciocephalus pulcher and Parosphromenus deissneri) elements. The islands of Sumatra, Borneo and Java are the fourth zoogeographic area of fish distribution. These islands show a high degree of endemism, especially in fishes of the family Belontiidae. Finally, the freshwater system of the Philippines is the last zoogeographic region of Southeast Asia. The area is characterized by the presence of closely related species of the cyprinids especially in Lake Lanao. Currently, high diversity of these freshwater fishes is being threatened by land development, such as deforestation, road construction and land expansion for plantation. Recent studies in the Gombak River basin show the extermination of 41 per cent of native fish species from 1969 to 1990. This is probably due to the construction of highways, logging, as well as land clearing for agriculture. 相似文献

Mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b (cyt b) sequence variation among the clariid fishes of Lake Victoria and the Malagarasi wetland Tanzania were studied between August 2003 and February 2005. Seven species were sampled and together with 26 cyt b sequences from GenBank were used to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships in the family Clariidae. The study revealed two clades: one consisting of the big‐head species, Clarias gariepinus and Heterobranchus longifilis, and the other of small‐sized species, Clarias werneri, Clarias alluaudi, Clarias liocephalus and Clariallabes petricola. The study further revealed that the genus Clarias is paraphyletic and that H. longifilis clusters deeply inside the Clarias group. Although H. longifilis is thought to be the oldest in evolutionary age in Tanzania, it is not close to the ancestor of the Clariidae family. The results also showed that C. werneri and C. alluaudi are genetically distinct from each other. 相似文献

A supposed hybrid population ( Agave peacockii ) between Agave marmorata and Agave kerchovei in a semiarid ecosystem at Zapotitlán Salinas, in the Mexican State of Puebla, was investigated, and its hybrid status corroborated in morphometric terms. A Stepwise Discriminant Analysis of the ratios: Number of leaved Rosette diameter, Leaf width/Leaf length, Number of spines/Leaf length, Distance between the upper spine and the tip of the leaf/Leaf length, and Distance between the upper spine and the tip of the leaf/Number of spines, supported our hypothesis of the existence of these naturally occurring hybrids, which are intermediate and distinct from the parental species. A null model was constructed to contrast the real case with a possible artifact, and the results also supported our hypothesis. The possible meaning of this kind of hybridization is discussed. 相似文献
