Fish fauna of moderate altitude from first order stream in upper Rio Machado, Rondônia, Brazil

This study represents an inventory of fish collected in a first order tributary of the Igarapé Piracolina at Chapada dos Parecis, upper Rio Machado drainage, Rio Madeira basin, Vilhena, Rondônia, Brazil. The sampled stream is located in moderate altitudes (570-590) m above sea level and it is the type locality of five recently described species. Through fieldwork carried out in four fieldtrips between 2014 and 2015, 966 specimens were captured belonging to 18 species, distributed in nine families and four orders. Most of these species have a restricted distribution in the upper Rio Machado. Characidae was the most representative family both in number of species and specimens. One species is recognized as new and endemic to the region, and belong to the genus Pyrrhulina (Lebiasinidae), while five other species (Ancistrus verecundus, Bryconops piracolina, Hyphessobrycon lucenorum, Moenkhausia cambacica, and M. parecis) are also possibly endemic to the upper Rio Machado basin. In this scenario, our results provide relevant data for the establishment of guiding policies, management decisions and bases for conservation actions in moderate altitude areas of the Amazon basin

Redescription of the freshwater anchovy Anchoviella vaillanti (Steindachner, 1908) (Clupeiformes: Engraulidae) with notes on the distribution of estuarine congeners in the Rio São Francisco basin, Brazil

Anchoviella vaillanti (Steindachner, 1908) was described based on few specimens from the middle Rio São Francisco; however, several specimens of the species have been collected in recent decades. The range of morphological variation of A. vaillanti could thus be reassessed based on a larger number of specimens currently available in fish collections, and the species redescribed. Anchoviella vaillanti can be recognized among freshwater congeners by the relative position of the pelvic, dorsal and anal fins. Records of the species in ichthyological collections are restricted to the upper and middle portions of the Rio São Francisco basin, but the species might also occur in the lower Rio São Francisco. Comments on the distribution of the marine species of Anchoviella from the lower Rio São Francisco basin and an identification key including those species and A. vaillanti are provided

Ichthyofauna of the Ribeirão Taboão, Paraíba do Sul river basin, Mogi das Cruzes, SP

We present herein a list of fish species from Ribeirão Taboão, a tributary of Rio Paraíba do Sul basin that is located in the metropolitan region of São Paulo. Fish were caught with trapezoid hand nets, mesh nets and fish traps. We sampled 145 specimens, belonging to 18 species, distributed in eight families and six orders. The most representative order was Characiformes, with six species, followed by Siluriformes with five species, Gymnotiformes with three species, Labriformes with two species, and Cyprinodontiformes and Synbranchiformes with a single species each. The four more abundant species were the livebearer Phalloceros reisi, the catfish Imparfinis piperatus, the cichlid Geophagus brasiliensis and the tetra Astyanax aff. fasciatus, which summed approximately 66% of the total sampled specimens. The 18 species of fish sampled in the present study correspond to almost 5% of the species registered for the Rio Paraíba do Sul drainage in the State of São Paulo, indicating a high diversity for a headwater stream. Endangered or introduced species were not found, but five species remain with indefinite taxonomical status

Evaluation of Depression, Anxiety and Sleep Quality in the Brazilian Population During Social Isolation Due to the New Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic: the DEGAS-CoV Study/ Avaliação da Depressão, Ansiedade e Qualidade do Sono na População Brasileira Durante o Isolamento Social Devido à Nova Pandemia do Coronavírus (SARS-CoV-2): o Estudo DEGAS-CoV

Introduction: The new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) has caused distress and repercussions in mental and physical health of individuals. Depression, anxiety and worsening of sleep quality have been reported in several recent articles that surveyed populations all over the globe. Our work meant to access, through a cross-sectional study, these disorders in the Brazilian population, through the application of an online questionnaire conducted on the second trimester of 2020. Materials and Methods: We applied an online questionnaire, filled with questions regarding social, economic, financial, educational and health status, as well as questions from the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), and from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).Results: We collected 2,695 valid answers, from April 24th to May 31st, 2020. Age ranged from 18 to 79 years, mean of 31.3. Women were 76.3%, men 23.7%. Symptoms of Anxiety were found in 56.5%, of depression in 46.1%, and of bad sleep in 49.2%. Some groups were more prone than others to one or more of those conditions, such as: younger people, women, mestizos, people with lesser years of education, of lower income or whose income dropped significantly during the pandemic, caregivers, students, sedentary or people practicing less physical activity, people who followed more hours of news of COVID-19 and those less engaged in social and instrumental activities.Conclusion: anxiety, depression and bad sleep quality were significantly high in our survey. Mental and sleep health is heterogeneously affected among individuals, depending on social, economic, financial, educational and health status

Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil: setting the baseline knowledge on the animal diversity in Brazil

The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others

Phylogenetic relationship of Engraulinae and taxonomy of Anchoviella Fowler, 1911 (Clupeiformes, Engraulidae)

Engraulinae, uma sub-família de Engraulidae, inclui onze gêneros e cerca de 90 espécies com hábitos marinhos, estuarinos e dulcícolas, distribuídas nas américas do Sul, Central e do Norte, exceto Encrasicholina e Engraulis, o primeiro restrito ao Indo-Pacífico e o segundo com distribuição global. Anchoviella, um gênero de Engraulinae, que pertence ao grupo de manjubas do Novo Mundo, possui 15 espécies descritas, mas, como sugerido por diversos autores, a maioria das espécies do gênero apresenta problemas taxonômicos que necessitam ser revisados. O monofiletismo de Engraulinae é sustentado por quatro sinapomorfias relacionadas a morfologia geral do corpo, padrão de canais sensoriais cefálicos e características do esqueleto caudal e arcos branquiais. O presente estudo tem dois objetivos principais: i) elaborar a análise filogenética de Engraulinae com base na análise de dados morfológicos, a fim de evidenciar padrões de evolução dos grupos na sub-família, ii) elaborar a revisão taxonômica de Anchoviella. Foram elencados 103 caracteres de morfologia externa e interna de todos os gêneros pertencentes a Engraulinae. O monofiletismo de Engraulinae e Engraulini não foi corroborado no presente estudo, assim como o da maioria dos gêneros incluídos na subfamília, com exceção de Anchovia, que formou um clado monofilético com alto suporte de Bremer. Proposto como o mais derivado em Engraulinae em estudos filogenéticos anteriores, o gênero Encrasicholina foi incluído em um dos grandes clados da família obtidos no presente estudo, juntamente com espécies de Stolephorus, Engraulis e Anchoa. Pterengraulis atherinoides é o clado mais derivado em Engraulidae, com Lycengraulis grossidens e Anchoa spinifer também situados entre os táxons mais derivados da família. Além disso, a obtenção de um grande clado com espécies pertencentes a Amazonsprattus scintilla, Anchoviella e Anchoa reforça as hipóteses de relacionamento próximo entre Amazonsprattus scintilla e Anchoviella. A revisão taxonômica de Anchoviella revelou 13 espécies válidas e duas espécies dulcícolas não descritas. Entretanto, de acordo com o resultado obtido na análise filogenética, apenas três dessas espécies deveriam ser mantidas em Anchoviella enquanto as demais espécies formariam um novo gênero incluindo Amazonsprattus scintilla.Engraulinae, a subfamily of Engraulidae, includes eleven genera and about 90 species with marine, estuarine and freshwater habits, distributed in South, Central and North America, except Encrasicholina and Engraulis, the first one restricted to the Indo-Pacific and the second, with a global distribution. Anchoviella, one genus of Egraulidae, that belongs to the New World Anchovies group, is represented by 15 described species but, according to many authors, most species of the genus are poorly described and in need of revision. The monophyly of Engraulinae is supported by four synapomorphies related to general morphology of the body, pattern of sensory cephalic canals and characteristics of the caudal skeleton and branchial arches. The present study has two main goals: i) to analyse the phylogenetic relationships within Engraulinae based on morphological data, aiming to highlight evolution patterns within the groups of the subfamily, ii) to perform the taxonomic revision of Anchoviella based on the analysis of 103 external and internal morphological characters of all the genera within Engraulinae. The monophyly of Engraulinae and Engraulini was not herein corroborated, as well as the monophyly of most of the genera within the subfamily, except Anchovia, that was included in a monophyletic clade with a strong Bremer support. Proposed as the most derived genus within the Engraulinae in previous studies, the genus Encrasicholina was herein included within one of the major clades of the family, together with species of Stolephorus, Engraulis and Anchoa. Pterengraulis atherinoides is the more derived taxon within the Engraulidae, together with Lycengraulis grossidens and Anchoa spinifer, also included within the more derived taxa of the family. Moreover, one major clade with species belonging to Amazonsprattus scintilla, Anchoviella and Anchoa was obtained, reinforcing the hypothesis of a close relationship among Amazonsprattus scintilla and Anchoviella and among Anchoa and Anchoviella. The taxonomic revision of Anchoviella revealed the existence of 13 valid species and two undescribed freshwater species. However, according to the results obtained through the phylogenetic analysis undertaken, only three among these species should be maintained within Anchoviella, while the other species would form a new genus including Amazonsprattus scintilla

Taxonomic review of species of the genus Anchoviella Fowler, 1911 (Clupeiformes, Engraulidae) from Amazon and Sao Francisco drainages

O gênero Anchoviella Fowler, 1911 compreende 25 espécies de peixes de pequeno porte, de hábitos marinho, estuarino ou dulcícola, que ocorrem no continente americano. No Brasil foram registradas até o momento nove espécies do gênero, sendo seis de água doce. As espécies de água doce de Anchoviella foram descritas com base na análise de poucos exemplares e, em alguns casos em juvenis, certamente devido à escassez de material disponível nas coleções até o momento. Atualmente, o Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo (MZUSP) e outras instituições brasileiras do gênero conseguiram reunir uma quantidade suficiente de material, tornando viável e oportuna a revisão taxonômica destas espécies. O presente estudo, portanto, teve como objetivos: i) redescrever as espécies de água doce do gênero Anchoviella presentes nas bacias Amazônica e do São Francisco; ii) definir com maior precisão a distribuição geográfica destas; iii) construir uma chave de identificação para o reconhecimento das espécies de Anchoviella presentes nas bacias Amazônica e do São Francisco. Foram encontradas oito espécies do gênero em estudo, cinco destas já descritas. São elas: Anchoviella alleni, A. carrikeri, A. guianensis, A. jamesi, A. vaillanti, A. sp.1, A. sp.2 e A. sp.3. A. nattereri fica no presente estudo como um nomen dubium. Tais espécies foram redescritas e comparadas quanto a caracteres morfológicos. Posteriormente, foi elaborada uma chave dicotômica incluindo além das sete espécies de Anchoviella encontradas no presente estudo, outras três espécies do gênero que habitam as áreas costeira e estuarina da região norte do Brasil.The genus Anchoviella Fowler, 1911 includes 25 species of small fish with marine, estuarine or freshwater habits that are present in the Americas. In Brazil nine species of the genus were registered so far, six freshwater. The freshwater species of Anchoviella were described based on the analysis of a few specimens and, in some cases in juvenile specimens, certainly due to the scarcity of material available in collections so far. Currently, the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de Sao Paulo (MZUSP) and other Brazilian institutions of this kind were able to gather a sufficient amount of material, becoming feasible and appropriate the taxonomic revision of these species. The present study therefore aimed to: i) redefine the freshwater species of the genus Anchoviella present in the Amazon and Sao Francisco River basin; ii) define more precisely the geographical distribution of these species; iii) construct an identification key for the recognition of species Anchoviella present in the Amazon and Sao Francisco basin. We have found eight species of the genus in the study, five of these already described. They are: A. alleni, A. carrikeri, A. guianensis, A. jamesi, A. vaillanti, A. sp.1, A. sp.2 and A. sp.3. A. nattereri is in this study as a nomen dubium. These species were redescribed and compared based on morphological characters. It was later developed a dichotomous key that include besides the seven species Anchoviella found in this study, three other species of which inhabit the coastal and estuarine areas of northern Brazil

A new species of Anchoviella Fowler, 1911 (Clupeiformes: Engraulidae) from the Amazon basin, Brazil

Anchoviella juruasanga is described from the drainages of rios Negro, Madeira, Tapajós, Trombetas, Tocantins, and Jari, in the Amazon basin, Brazil. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by having a short upper jaw, with its posterior tip extending between the verticals through anterior and posterior margins of the pupil (vs. posterior tip of upper jaw extending beyond the vertical through posterior margin of the pupil). Anchoviella juruasanga is also distinct from other strictly freshwater Amazonian species of the genus by the distance from tip of snout to posterior end of upper jaw between 8 and 11% in standard length (vs. 14% or more in A. alleni, A. carrikeri, A. guianensis, and A. jamesi). The anal-fin origin slightly posterior to or at the vertical through the base of the last dorsal-fin ray further distinguishes the new species from A. alleni (anal-fin origin posterior to the vertical through the last anal-fin ray by at least 14% of head length) and A. jamesi (anal-fin origin anterior to the vertical through the last anal-fin ray). An identification key for the Amazonian species of Anchoviella, including marine and estuarine species known to occur in the lower portion of the basin, is presented.Anchoviella juruasanga é descrita das drenagens dos rios Negro, Madeira, Tapajós, Trombetas, Tocantins e Jari, na bacia Amazônica, Brasil. A nova espécie distingue-se de suas congêneres pela presença da maxila superior curta, com sua extremidade posterior estendendo-se entre as verticais que passam pelas margens anterior e posterior da pupila (vs. extremidade posterior da maxila superior estendendo-se além da vertical que passa pela margem posterior da pupila). Anchoviella juruasanga também distingue-se das demais espécies Amazônicas estritamente dulcícolas do gênero pela distância da ponta do focinho à extremidade posterior da maxila superior entre 8 e 11% do comprimento padrão (vs. 14% ou mais em A. alleni, A. carrikeri, A. guianensis e A. jamesi). A origem da nadadeira anal em uma região ligeiramente posterior ou na vertical que passa pela base do último raio da nadadeira dorsal também distingue a nova espécie de A. alleni (origem da nadadeira anal posterior à vertical que passa pelo último raio da nadadeira anal por no máximo 14% do comprimento da cabeça) e A. jamesi (origem da nadadeira anal anterior à vertical que passa pelo ultimo raio da nadadeira anal). É apresentada uma chave de identificação para as espécies Amazônicas de Anchoviella, incluindo espécies marinhas e estuarinas conhecidas por ocorrer nas porções baixas da bacia.FAPESP [09/737377-4

Ichthyofauna of the Ribeirão Taboão, Paraíba do Sul river basin, Mogi das Cruzes, SP

We present herein a list of fish species from Ribeirão Taboão, a tributary of Rio Paraíba do Sul basin that is located in the metropolitan region of São Paulo. Fish were caught with trapezoid hand nets, mesh nets and fish traps. We sampled 145 specimens, belonging to 18 species, distributed in eight families and six orders. The most representative order was Characiformes, with six species, followed by Siluriformes with five species, Gymnotiformes with three species, Labriformes with two species, and Cyprinodontiformes and Synbranchiformes with a single species each. The four more abundant species were the livebearer Phalloceros reisi, the catfish Imparfinis piperatus, the cichlid Geophagus brasiliensis and the tetra Astyanax aff. fasciatus, which summed approximately 66% of the total sampled specimens. The 18 species of fish sampled in the present study correspond to almost 5% of the species registered for the Rio Paraíba do Sul drainage in the State of São Paulo, indicating a high diversity for a headwater stream. Endangered or introduced species were not found, but five species remain with indefinite taxonomical status
