Studies on the diversity, taxonomy, phylogeny, and biogeography of Neotropical Fishes
have thrived over the twenty years that have elapsed since the first symposium on their …

Fishes have evolved multiple mechanisms for sound production, many of which utilize sonic
muscles that vibrate the swimbladder or the rubbing of bony elements. Sonic muscles are …

A phylogenetic analysis based on 311 morphological characters is presented for most
species of the Doradidae, all genera of the Auchenipteridae, and representatives of 16 other …

Catfishes are a broadly distributed order of freshwater fishes with 3,407 currently valid
species. In this paper, I review the different clades of catfishes, all catfish families, and …

Fishes have evolved an astonishing diversity of peripheral (accessory/ancillary) auditory
structures to improve hearing based on their ability to transmit oscillations of gas bladder …

Propomos uma classificação revisada de Doradidae baseada na análise filogenética de
dados moleculares dos genes rag1, co1 e 16s, e suportada pela morfologia da nadadeira …

Doradidae is a monophyletic catfish family endemic to continental South America, and
composed of 93 valid species here placed in 31 genera. Existing phylogenetic hypotheses …

Abstract The Neotropical catfish family Pseudopimelodidae includes seven genera and 50
valid species, widely distributed in South America. To address the lack of comparative …

Despite rapid damping, fish swimbladders have been modelled as underwater resonant
bubbles. Recent data suggest that swimbladders of sound-producing fishes use a forced …

Swimbladder disturbance sounds of doradoid catfishes (Doradidae and Auchenipteridae)
demonstrated striking waveform and spectrographic variation. We surveyed sounds of 25 …
