A new and improved electric fish finder with resources for printed circuit board fabrication Neotropical Ichthyology
Haag,Michael A.; Lambert,Jeffrey C.; Waddell,Joseph C.; Crampton,William G.R..
ABSTRACT We describe the circuit design, construction, and operation of a field-portable electric fish finder (an AC-coupled wide-band differential bio-amplifier with loudspeaker output). This device permits detection and monitoring of the electric organ discharges generated by neotropical gymnotiform fishes (as well as the mormyroid fishes of tropical Africa). Our design is modified from earlier versions to optimize detection performance and stability over a wider range of ambient water conductivity, including under conditions of extremely low conductivity (< ca. 10 μScm-1). Our new electric fish finder design also incorporates complete waterproofing and longer battery autonomy. We provide Gerber and Eagle files made with the electronic design...

A portable bio-amplifier for electric fish research: design and construction Neotropical Ichthyology
Wells,Jonathan K.; Crampton,William G. R..
The weak electric organ discharges (EODs) of gymnotiform knife fishes can be readily amplified with a wideband amplifier connected to submerged electrodes. The output from such an amplifier can then be monitored with audio speakers or digitized for subsequent analysis. Commercially available devices are expensive and usually require mains electrical power. Here we provide design notes and instructions for the construction and calibration of a cheap, portable, battery-powered, AC-coupled wideband bio-amplifier. This device was designed to allow electric fishes to be located in the field, and also to permit the relatively noise-free acquisition of EOD waveforms from specimens held in temporary captivity. This contribution is intended to encourage students of...

Dimorfismo sexual em Siluriformes e Gymnotiformes (Ostariophysi) da Amazônia Acta Amazonica
Py-Daniel,Lúcia H. Rapp; Fernandes,Cristina Cox.
No presente trabalho é feito um levantamento dos casos de dimorfismo sexual em Siluriformes e Gymnotiformes. Este levantamento se restringe às formas Neotropicais, com ênfase mais especificamente, às da Amazônia. Peixes dessa região possuem uma grande diversidade, ainda que os limites intraespecíficos não estejam bem definidos. Embora preliminar, o mapeamento de características dimórficas em um cladograma referente a família Loricariidae (Siluriformes) auxilia na demonstração de que padrões de dimorfismo sexual são consistentes com hipóteses de monofiletismo. Em Apteronotidae (Gymnotiformes), com base no mapeamento dos caracteres tamanho e forma do focinho e presença de dentes diferenciada em árvores filogenéticas, podemos inferir que esses caracteres...

Diversidade de tuviras comercializadas como iscas vivas pelas comunidades do Porto da Manga e Codrasa, Corumbá, MS. Infoteca-e
MARQUES, D. K. S.; CALHEIROS, D. F..
A pesca é uma das principais atividades econômicas no Pantanal do Mato Grosso do Sul. Na década de 1990, o setor turístico pesqueiro cresceu expressivamente, gerando demandas por serviços especializados, como a captura de iscas vivas. Desde então, diversas comunidades de pescadores profissionais artesanais têm sua principal fonte de renda baseada na captura de iscas vivas destinadas principalmente ao setor turístico pesqueiro. O principal produto são as tuviras (Gymnotiformes), representando mais de 70% da captura anual de iscas vivas. Entretanto, nesta região não há conhecimento sobre a diversidade de espécies da Ordem Gymnotiformes que são exploradas comercialmente. Em outras palavras, não se sabe quantas espécies de tuviras são utilizadas como iscas...

Electric eels galore: microsatellite markers for population studies Neotropical Ichthyology
Souza-Shibatta,Lenice; Ferreira,Dhiego G.; Santos,Kátia F.; Galindo,Bruno A.; Shibatta,Oscar A.; Sofia,Silvia H.; Giacomin,Renata M.; Bastos,Douglas A.; Mendes-Júnior,Raimundo N. G.; Santana,Carlos David de.
Abstract Fourteen novel microsatellite loci are described and characterized in two species of electric eels, Electrophorus variiand E. voltaifrom floodplains and rivers of the Amazon rainforest. These loci are polymorphic, highly informative, and have the capacity to detect reliable levels of genetic diversity. Likewise, the high combined probability of paternity exclusion value and low combined probability of genetic identity value obtained demonstrate that the new set of loci displays suitability for paternity studies on electric eels. In addition, the cross-amplification of electric eel species implies that it may also be useful in the study of the closely related E. electricus, and to other Neotropical electric fishes (Gymnotiformes) species as tested...

Fallen leaves on the water-bed: diurnal camouflage of three night active fish species in an Amazonian streamlet Neotropical Ichthyology
Sazima,Ivan; Carvalho,Lucélia Nobre; Mendonça,Fernando Pereira; Zuanon,Jansen.
Resemblance to dead leaves is a well known type of camouflage recorded for several small vertebrates that dwell in the leaf and root litter on the ground. We present here instances of such resemblance in three species of nocturnal fishes (Siluriformes and Gymnotiformes) that spend the daytime among submersed root-tangle with leaf litter in Amazonian streams. All three species are very difficult to spot visually, due both to their shape and colors which blend with the substrate, as well as to the heterogeneous nature of their cover. Two species were recorded to lie on their sides, which adds to their resemblance to dead leaves. When disturbed, one species may drift like a waterlogged leaf, whereas another moves upwards the root-tangle, exposing its fore...

Feeding habit of Eigenmannia trilineata Lopez &amp; Castello, 1966 (Teleostei: Sternopygidae) of Parque Estadual de Itapuã, RS, Brazil Neotropical Ichthyology
Giora,Júlia; Fialho,Clarice B.; Dufech,Ana Paula S..
This study aims to describe the feeding habits of a population of the weakly electric fish Eigenmannia trilineata from Southern Brazil through the monthly frequency variation of replection (RI) and hepatosomatic (HSI) indexes, condition factor (CF) and dietary analysis of the species, besides the comparison of the results with abiotic factors. We collected 428 specimens from June/2002 to May/2003 with a dip net and electric fish detector. Stomach contents were analyzed using three measurements: frequency of occurrence of food items, percentage composition per prey type and feeding importance index. Microcrustacea and autochthonous insects were the dominant food items in the stomachs of E. trilineata. The adults (males larger than 63.5 mm and females larger...

Profile of micronucleus frequencies and nuclear abnormalities in different species of electric fishes (Gymnotiformes) from the Eastern Amazon Genet. Mol. Biol.
Melo,Karina Motta; Alves,Ingrid Reale; Pieczarka,Julio Cesar; David,José Augusto de Oliveira; Nagamachi,Cleusa Yoshiko; Grisolia,Cesar Koppe.
The frequency of spontaneous micronucleus (MN) formation in fish species needs to be determined to evaluate their usefulness for genotoxic biomonitoring. The definition of a good bioindicator takes into account the current knowledge of its metabolic traits as well as other factors including its feeding behavior and relationship to the environment. In this study, we compared the basal frequencies of micronucleated erythrocytes and nuclear abnormalities (NA) among different species of the fish Order Gymnotiformes (Rhamphichthys marmoratus, Steatogenys elegans, Sternopygus macrurus, Parapteronotus hasemani, Gymnotus mamiraua, Gymnotus arapaima, Brachyhypopomus beebei, Brachyhypopomus n. sp. BENN) sampled in several localities of the Eastern Amazon. A baseline...

Reproductive biology of a population of Gymnotus aff.carapo (Teleostei: Gymnotidae) from southern Brazil Neotropical Ichthyology
Cognato,Diego de Paula; Fialho,Clarice Bernhardt.
The reproductive period and its relation with somatic and abiotic factors, the relative and absolute fecundity, spawning type, length of first maturation and sex ratio is describe for Gymnotus aff.carapo from a small lake at Itapuã State Park, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Gymnotus aff. carapo presents a relatively long reproductive cycle extending from November/2003 to March/2004. Decreases in water conductivity and increases in dissolved oxygen are correlated with increased gonadal development in males. In females, seasonal increases in temperature and photoperiod and decreases in dissolved oxygen are correlated with increased gonadal development. The mean absolute fecundity was 915.3 oocytes, and mean relative fecundity 0.20 oocytes/mg body weight. Egg...
