The purpose of this paper is to present an updated list of fishes found in Argentina’s freshwaters based on the available literature. Since the last list, CLOFFAR by Mirande & Koerber, was published in 2015, most systematical and distributional changes were presented on www.pecescriollos.de and six updates have been published (Koerber et al. 2015, 2016, 2017a, 2017b, 2018, 2019). From the list published by López et al. (2003) to the CLOFFAR from 2015, in only 12 years the number of species reported from Argentina had increased from 379 to 515. Since 2015 this number has again gone up to 570 (table 3) species. In addition to the species which had to be added to or rested from the total count several dozens of further changes neutral to the total count, as e.g. from new generic combinations, have occurred. Some species have even undergone two changes within a short lapse of time, having been described or recorded for the first time from Argentina and then combined with a different genus shortly after. With more than 120 changes (table 1) since publishing the CLOFFAR in 2015 the updates were getting far too long in relation to the original list. In addition to the mere number of changes there have been two other reasons to reissue the list: a) the recent paper of Terán et al. (2020) alone contained some 30 new combinations for stethaprionin species and b) that over the last years the systematics at family level or higher has undergone some massive changes. New high level units as e.g. Cichliformes, Mugiliformes and Centrarchiformes appeared in the lists for Southern South America to arrange families, genera and species treated in Perciformes before. These new high level structures (table 2) have been adopted since the fourth update (Koerber et al. 2017b) with the disadvantage that ever since the updates followed a different structure than the one used in the CLOFFAR which these were supposed to update. Eventually, the quantity of changes from different sources and for various reasons have been just too many to be handled in updates to CLOFFAR (Mirande & Koerber 2015) and we considered it justified and necessary to publish a complete new list of the continental fishes found in Argentina: CLOFFAR-2.

Introduction

The purpose of this paper is to present an updated list of fishes found in Argentina’s freshwaters based on

the available literature. Since the last list, CLOFFAR by Mirande & Koerber, was published in 2015, most

systematical and distributional changes were presented on www.pecescriollos.de and six updates have

been published (Koerber et al. 2015, 2016, 2017a, 2017b, 2018, 2019).

From the list published by López et al. (2003) to the CLOFFAR from 2015, in only 12 years the number of

species reported from Argentina had increased from 379 to 515. Since 2015 this number has again gone

up to 570 (table 3) species. In addition to the species which had to be added to or rested from the total

count several dozens of further changes neutral to the total count, as e.g. from new generic combinations,

have occurred. Some species have even undergone two changes within a short lapse of time, having been

described or recorded for the first time from Argentina and then combined with a different genus shortly

after. With more than 120 changes (table 1) since publishing the CLOFFAR in 2015 the updates were

getting far too long in relation to the original list.

In addition to the mere number of changes there have been two other reasons to reissue the list: a) the

recent paper of Terán et al. (2020) alone contained some 30 new combinations for stethaprionin species

and b) that over the last years the systematics at family level or higher has undergone some massive

changes. New high level units as e.g. Cichliformes, Mugiliformes and Centrarchiformes appeared in the

lists for Southern South America to arrange families, genera and species treated in Perciformes before.

These new high level structures (table 2) have been adopted since the fourth update (Koerber et al. 2017b)

with the disadvantage that ever since the updates followed a different structure than the one used in the

CLOFFAR which these were supposed to update.

Eventually, the quantity of changes from different sources and for various reasons have been just too many

to be handled in updates to CLOFFAR (Mirande & Koerber 2015) and we considered it justified and

necessary to publish a complete new list of the continental fishes found in Argentina: CLOFFAR-2.

History and some statistics (taken from CLOFFAR-1 with some modifications)

The history of the ichthyology of Argentinean freshwater fishes has broadly been discussed in both, general

and specific papers as e.g. Ringuelet et al. (1967), López & Aquino (1998), López et al. (2003), López

(2003), and Acosta (2015). Most of these and also many additional papers treating with this subject have

been made available for download by López, Nadalin & Scarabotti (2015). Thus, we refrain from repeating

the already available information and restrict this part to some statistics about the development of

systematical and distributional changes the freshwater fishes from Argentina have undergone, comparing

the present list with the previous ones.

Following their own counts, Ringuelet et al. (1967) included 344 species and subspecies. We have not

recounted these but trust the information provided on pages 36-38 of their work. 36 years later López et al.

(2003) proposed 450 species to be distributed in the Argentinean freshwaters. From this quantity 71 have

to be removed for having been synonymized since then or for not being existent in Argentina, leading to an

adjusted total of 379 species. If we had conducted this thorough count also for Ringuelet et al. (1967) we

would have probably reached to a similar ratio of to be excluded number of species.

In the current list we consider 570 species to be found in the freshwaters of Argentina, including 18 exotic

introduced species, 6 dubious taxa, and several species distributed in marine and brackish waters which

can frequently also be found in freshwaters, mainly in the estuarine environment of the Río de la Plata

Not all registered changes do necessarily affect the quantity of species, but still require an updated listing

as e.g. the transfer of a species into a different genus, synonymization of well known names or revalidation

of species names which were considered synonyms earlier but today are considered valid. Between 2003

and 2015 the genera Prochilodus and Pyrrhulina have undergone the most remarkable changes given that

from 4 and 5 species cited from each genus respectively, only 1 is currently considered valid and from

Argentina.

The categories used in table 1 for changes in the list of Argentinean freshwater fishes having undergone

between 2015 and today, are defined as follows:

new species: Described from a type locality in Argentina. This might also include species of which only

paratypes are from Argentina.

new combination: Species which were known from Argentina previously but have been transferred to a

different genus.

Ichthyological Contributions of PecesCriollos 72: 1-81 (2020)

synonymization: Nomina which were listed as valid and from Argentina, but are currently considered to be

a junior synonym of another species found in Argentina.

revalidation: Nomina which were considered to be a junior synonym in 2015 and are currently considered

to be valid.

first record: Species that have been found for the first time in the freshwaters of Argentina in or after 2015.

This count does not include the ones from the category of ‘new species’.

negative record: This category includes all those species which were misidentified and, as a result,

addressed as a species which is today known not to be distributed in Argentina. These cases are mainly

based on erroneous historical accounts which were uncritically copied during decades.

overlooked: These are species which have been reported from Argentina before 2015 but either the

publication was overlooked or these species are considered valid but have never been found again and/or

are only known from a single specimen without exact locality as Apistogramma pleurotaenia or even only

from a drawing as Hypostomus itacua.

Methods (taken from CLOFFAR-1 with some modifications)

changes

All changes to CLOFFAR are indicated by a * in the beginning of the

respective line. Thus, these can be detected easily by scrolling down the list

while checking the left margin for the * sign.

chronology of listing

Arrangements of classes, orders and families follow Fricke et al. (2019).

Arrangements of subfamilies and tribes are mostly done in alphabetical

order. If the case where we follow a specific paper in these arrangements

the source is provided behind the respective taxon.

species

We have included all species for which we found a proof to occur in the

freshwaters in Argentina. Some mainly marine species have been included

if found frequently in freshwaters. All doubtful species which from literature

are known as ‘sp.’ or ‘cf.’ are not included, with some few exceptions.

To avoid future errors, in many cases copied and recopied over decades, at

the end of each higher unit we provide the accounts of species names

which have been reported from Argentina, by e.g. López et al. (2003) or

Mirande & Koerber (2015), but following our current knowledge are not.

These are given with the original name and combination.

In the unique case of Boulengerella lucius a complete family, Ctenoluciidae,

is considered not to be found in Argentina. Sources for these negative

statements are provided.

authorship

Authors usually listed as having participated in papers published by others

or various authors (e.g. ‘Eigenmann in Eigenmann & Kennedy’) are reduced

to the author/s of the species (e.g. ‘Eigenmann’). For the complete data we

recommend to consult the database Eschmeyer’s Catalog of Fishes (Fricke

et al. 2020).

references

References are presented in two separated blocks, the first for all changes

since publishing CLOFFAR-1 and the original list of references already

published in CLOFFAR-1. References are provided for all cases except for

formal descriptions of valid species names or their synonyms from prior to

CLOFFAR-1

. For these we recommend to consult the database

Eschmeyer’s Catalog of Fishes (Fricke et al. 2020).

first records

Most first records dating from earlier than 2003 have been taken from

López et al. (2003). Some of these were reinvestigated and, if necessary,

modified or corrected. Later first records in most cases have been reported

on previously by PecesCriollos. First records are not provided if the earliest

original description of a species, the valid name or one of the provided

synonyms, is considered to be the first record.

synonymies

Synonymies follow Eschmeyer’s Catalog of Fishes (Fricke et al. 2020). ‘?’

identifies a questionable or doubtful synonymy. Synonyms are not provided

for introduced exotic species. Except as additional information with first

records, combinations with different generic names are not listed.

spellings

Spellings follow Eschmeyer’s Catalog of Fishes (Fricke et al. 2020). The

second author, who’s family name in Germany

is spelled ‘Körber’, has

repeatedly experienced the difficulties of foreign language speakers with

German umlauts (Fuller 2014, Nadalin & López 2015, etc.). Thus, the

German umlauts ä, ö, and ü in authors’ names of German origin and

references written in German have been replaced by ae, oe, and ue,

aplying the Code’s provision for species names also to authors’ names and

general writing. Also, the German ß has been changed to ss. This practise

shall facilitate findability in databases and writability in non-German texts.

type localities

The type localities are only given for those located in the Argentinean

territory. For all other type localities we recommend to consult the database

Eschmeyer’s Catalog of Fishes (Fricke et al. 2020).

common names

We have decided not to list the common names or etymologies as this has

Ichthyological Contributions of PecesCriollos 72: 1-81 (2020)

been done in several papers already (e.g. Holmberg 1893, Lahille 1922,

Ringuelet et al. 1967, Liotta 2005, Koerber 2011). It is little useful to inform

that numerous species of tetras

are addressed as ‘mojarrita’ or all

gymnotiforms as ‘morenita’ etc.

We do not concur with the use of common names invented by authors of

popular books with the intention to be imposed ‘officially’ over the names

really used by the people in daily contact with the fishes. However, these

last names, in addition to be unspecific, are so variable between different

regions that we never could include all its diversity.

Ackowledgements

We especially thank Gastón Aguilera, Felipe Alonso, Adriana Almirón, Mercedes Azpelicueta, Jorge

Casciotta, Ronald Fricke, Thomas Litz, Roberto Reis, Guillermo Terán, and many others for their

unconditional support in several projects and opportunities. Thanks are due to GfI - Gesellschaft fuer

Ichthyolgie e.V. (German Ichthyological Society) and LWD e-solutions (Germany). Without their financial

and technical support PecesCriollos and this publication would not have been possible. JMM thanks

Fundación Miguel Lillo and CONICET for their support all along his career.SK is grateful to Thomas Hoster

for his expertise during earlier times of pdf-techniques. His ongoing support made the updates published

before CLOFFAR in 2015 possible.

We, authors and readers, cannot appreciate enough the excellent work of the teams of Eschmeyer’s

Catalog of Fishes and of the Biodiversity Heritage Library for their ongoing valuable contribution to

ichthyology. Thomas Litz and Guillermo Terán have reviewed and improved an earlier version of this paper.

Introducción

El propósito de este artículo es presentar una lista actualizada de los peces de agua dulce encontrados en

Argentina, basada en la bibliografía disponible. Desde la última lista, CLOFFAR de Mirande & Koerber,

que fue publicada en 2015, la mayoría de los cambios sistemáticos y de distribución fueron presentados

en www.pecescriollos.de y seis actualizaciones han sido publicadas (Koerber et al., 2015, 2016, 2017a,

2017b, 2018, 2019).

Desde la lista publicada por López et al. (2003) al CLOFFAR, de 2015, en sólo 12 años, el número de

especies reportadas para Argentina se había incrementado desde 379 a 515. Desde 2015 este número ha

seguido creciendo hasta 570 (tabla 3). Además de las especies que tuvieron que ser sumadas o restadas

del conteo total, hubo decenas de cambios que fueron neutrales en el recuento total, como por ejemplo

nuevas combinaciones genéricas. Algunas especies han tenido dos cambios dentro de un lapso corto de

tiempo, habiendo sido descriptas o registradas por primera vez para Argentina y combinadas con un

género diferente poco después. Con más de 120 cambios (tabla 1) desde la publicación del CLOFFAR en

2015, las actualizaciones estaban apartándose demasiado de la lista original.

Además del simple número de cambios, han habido otras dos razones para reeditar la lista: a) solo el

artículo reciente de Terán et al. (2020) contiene más de 30 nuevas combinaciones para especies de

Stethaprioninae y b) durante los últimos años la sistemática a nivel de familias o superior ha recibido

algunos cambios importantes. Nuevas categorías de alto nivel, como Centrarchiformes, Cichliformes o

Mugiliformes han aparecido en las listas para el sur de Sudamérica para agrupar familias, géneros y

especies tratados antes como Perciformes. Estas nuevas categorías de alto nivel (tabla 2) han sido

adoptadas desde la cuarta actualización (Koerber et al. 2017b), con la desventaja de que desde ese

momento las actualizaciones siguieron una estructura diferente a la usada en el CLOFFAR, que

supuestamente estaban actualizando.

Eventualmente la cantidad de cambios, surgidos de diferentes fuentes y por diversas razones han sido

demasiados para ser tratados en actualizaciones del CLOFFAR (Mirande & Koerber 2015) y consideramos

justificado y necesario publicar una nueva lista completa de los peces continentales encontrados en

Argentina: CLOFFAR-2.

Historia y algunas estadísticas (tomadas del CLOFFAR-1 con algunas modificaciones)

La historia de la ictiología de los peces continentales de Argentina ha sido ampliamente distribuida en

trabajos tanto generales como específicos como Ringuelet et al. (1967), López & Aquino (1998), López et

al. (2003), López (2003) y Acosta (2015). La mayoría de ellos y también muchos trabajos adicionales

tratando este tema, han sido disponibilizados para ser descargados por López, Nadalin & Scarabotti

(2015). Por lo tanto, nos abstenemos de repetir información que ya está disponible y restringimos esta

parte a algunas estadísticas sobre cambios sistemáticos y de distribución de los peces de agua dulce que

han ido ocurriendo, comparando la presente lista con las previas.

Siguiendo sus cuentas, Ringuelet et al. (1967: páginas 36 a 38) incluyeron 344 especies y subespecies. 36

años después, López et al. (2003) propusieron que había 450 especies distribuidas en aguas dulces

argentinas. De ese número, 71 han sido eliminadas por haber sido sinonimizadas desde entonces o por no

existir en Argentina, llevando a un número total corregido de 379 especies. Si hubiéramos hecho una

cuenta similar para Ringuelet et al. (1967) probablemente habríamos llegado a una relación similar del

número de especies a ser excluídas.

En la lista actual consideramos que hay 570 especies presentes en las aguas dulces de Argentina,

incluyendo 18 especies exóticas introducidas, 6 taxones dudosos y varias especies distribuidas en aguas

salobres y marinas que pueden encontrarse frecuentemente también en agua dulce principalmente en el

ambiente estuarino del Río de la Plata.

No todos los cambios registrados necesariamente afectan la cantidad de especies, pero requieren listas

actualizadas, como por ejemplo, la transferencia de una especie a un género diferente, sinonimia de

especies conocidas o revalidación de nombres de especies que habían sido considerados sinónimos pero

ahora son considerados válidos. Entre 2003 y 2015 los géneros Prochilodus y Pyrrhulina han

experimentado los cambios más marcados, dado que de las 4 y 5 especies citadas respectivamente, solo

1 de cada género es considerada como válida para Argentina.

Las categorías usadas en la tabla 1 para los cambios en la lista de los peces Argentinos de agua dulce

desde 2015, se definen de la siguiente manera:

nueva especie: Descripta a partir de una localidad típica en Argentina. Puede incluir especies de las cuales

solo alguno o todos los paratipos proceden de Argentina.

Ichthyological Contributions of PecesCriollos 72: 1-81 (2020)

nueva combinación: Especies que se conocían previamente para Argentina pero han sido transferidas a

un género diferente.

sinonimización: Nombres que fueron listados como válidos y presentes en Argentina, pero considerados

actualmente sinónimos junior de otras especies también encontradas en Argentina.

revalidación: Nombres que fueron listados como sinónimos junior en 2015 pero que actualmente se

consideran como válidos.

primer registro: Especies que se han encontrado por primera vez en aguas dulces de Argentina desde

2015. Este conteo no incluye a las que corresponden a la categoría “nueva especie”.

registro negativo: Esta categoría incluye a las especies citadas a partir de identificaciones erróneas y de

las que, por lo tanto, se carece completamente de evidencia de que se distribuyan en Argentina. Estos

casos son principalmente errores históricos que se han reproducido durante décadas sin análisis críticos.

ignoradas: Estas son las especies que han sido registradas en Argentina antes de 2015 en publicaciones

que han sido pasadas por alto o especies consideradas válidas pero que nunca se han encontrado

nuevamente y/o son conocidas solamente por un único ejemplar sin localidad precisa, como

Apistogramma pleurotaenia o incluso solo por un dibujo, como Hypostomus itacua.

Métodos (tomadas del CLOFFAR-1 con algunas modificaciones)

cambios

Todos los cambios al CLOFFAR son indicados por un * al comienzo del

renglón respectivo. Así, estos pueden ser detectados fácilment

e yendo

hacia abajo en la lista mientras se busca el * en el margen izquierdo.

cronología del listado

La disposición de clases, órdenes y familias sigue a Fricke et al. (2019).

Las subfamilias y tribus están mayormente ordenadas alfabéticamente. En

los casos a donde seguimos a un trabajo específico para determinar ese

orden, la fuente es provista debajo del taxón respectivo.

especies

Hemos incluido todas las especies para las cuales encontramos una

prueba de que habiten las aguas dulces de Argentina. Algunas especies

principalmente marinas han sido incluidas si son encontradas

frecuentemente en agua dulce.

Las especies dudosas, que en la bibliografía son mencionadas como “sp.”

o “cf.” no son incluidas, con algunas pocas excepciones.

Para evitar futuros errores, en muchos casos copiados y reproducidos por

décadas, al final de cada categoría taxonómica superior mencionamos los

nombres de especies que han sido reportados para Argentina, por ejemplo

por López et al. (2003) o Mirande & Koerber (2015), pero que según

nuestro conocimiento actual no están. Estos nombres son provistos con el

nombre y combinación originales.

En el caso único de Boulengerella lucius, una familia completa,

Ctenoluciidae, es excluída de la lista de peces argentinos. Las fuentes de

esas citas negativas son provistas en cada caso.

autorías

Las autorías de las especies descriptas en artículos cuyos autores no

coinciden con la de la especie (por ejemplo “Eigenmann en Eigenmann &

Kennedy”) son reducidas a el-la/las-los autor/as-es de las especies (en este

caso “Eigenmann”). Para datos completos recomendamos consultar la

base de datos del Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer (Fricke et al. 2020).

referencias

Las referencias son presentadas en dos bloques separados, la primera

para todos los cambios desde la publicación del CLOFFAR-1 y la segunda

es la lista original de referencias ya publicadas en el CLOFFAR-

1. Las

referencias son provistas para todos los casos excepto para descripciones

formales de nombres válidos de especies o sus sinónimos

de antes de

CLOFFAR-1. Para ellos recomendamos consultar la base de datos del

Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer (Fricke et al. 2020).

primeros registros

La mayoría de los primeros registros anteriores a 2003 han sido tomados

de López et al. (20

03). Algunos de ellos fueron reinvestigados y

modificados o corregidos cuando era necesario. La mayor parte de los

primeros registros posteriores han sido reportados previamente por

PecesCriollos. Los primeros registros no son provistos si la descripción

original más antigua de la especie, el nombre válido o uno de los sinónimos

Ichthyological Contributions of PecesCriollos 72: 1-81 (2020)

provistos, es considerado como el primer registro.

sinónimos

Las sinonimias siguen al Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer (Fricke et al.

2020). ‘?’ identifica una sinonimia dudosa o cuestionable. Los sinónimos no

son provistos para especies exóticas introducidas. Excepto como

información adicional con primeros registros, las combinaciones con

diferentes nombres genéricos no son listadas.

deletreos

Los deletreos siguen al Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer (Fricke et al.

2020). El segundo autor, cuyo apellido en Alemania se deletrea “Körber”,

ha experimentado repetidamente las dificultades de los extranjeros con las

diéresis alemanas (Fuller 2014, Nadalin & López 2015, etc.). Así, las

diéresis alemanas ä, ö y ü en los nombres de los autores de origen alemán

y referencias escritas en alemán han sido reemplazadas por ae, oe y ue,

aplicando el criterio del Código para nombres de especies también a los

nombres de los autores y la escritura en general. También la ß alemana ha

sido cambiada a ss. Esta práctica debería facilitar las búsquedas en bases

de datos y la escritura en textos no alemanes.

localidades tipo

Las localidades tipo son provistas solo cuando están situadas en el

territorio argentino. Para otras localidades tipo recomendamos consultar el

Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer (Fricke et al. 2020)

nombres comunes

Hemos decidido no listar nombres comunes o etimologías, ya que esto ya

ha sido hecho en varios trabajos (e.g. Holmbe

rg 1893, Lahille 1922,

Ringuelet et al. 1967, Liotta 2005, Koerber 2011). Es poco útil mencionar

para numerosas especies de ‘tetras’ el nombre común ‘mojarrita’ o para

todos los Gymnotiformes ‘morenita’. Nos oponemos al uso de nombres

comunes inventados por autores de libros de divulgación que pretenden

imponerse de manera ‘oficial’, en lugar de los nombres realmente usados

por las personas que están en contacto cotidiano con los peces. Sin

embargo, estos últimos nombres, además de inespecíficos, son tan

variables en diferentes regiones que nunca podríamos abarcar toda su

diversidad.

Agradecimientos

Agradecemos especialmente a Gastón Aguilera, Felipe Alonso, Adriana Almirón, Mercedes Azpelicueta,

Jorge Casciotta, Ronald Fricke, Thomas Litz, Roberto Reis, Guillermo Terán y muchos otros por su apoyo

incondicional en diversos proyectos y oportunidades. Agradecemos a GfI - Gesellschaft fuer Ichthyologie

e.V. (Sociedad Alemana de Ictiología) y LWD e-solutions (Alemania). Sin su apoyo financiero y técnico,

PecesCriollos y esta publicación no habrían sido posibles. JMM agradece a la Fundación Miguel Lillo y

CONICET por su apoyo a lo largo de toda su carrera. SK está agradecido a Thomas Hoster por su

experticia durante las primeras épocas de las técnicas en pdf. Su continuo apoyo hizo que las

actualizaciones publicadas antes del CLOFFAR en 2015 fueran posibles.

Nosotros, autores y lectores, no podemos apreciar lo suficiente el excelente trabajo de los equipos del

Catálogo de Peces de Eschmeyer y de Biodiversity Heritage Library por su valiosa contribución continua a

la ictiología. Thomaz Litz y Guillermo Terán han revisado y mejorado una versión preliminar de este

trabajo.

Leporinus acutidens is a possible jr. synonym of L. friderici and it

could be more acurat to use the latter name for the Argentinean

species. (Birindelli, comm.pers.). Thus, as the distribution of the

‘true’ L. friderici is restricted to northern South America

(Sidlauskas & Vari 2008, 2012), we prefer to apply L. acutidens

until this issue is sorted out.

Is Saccocoelioides bacilliformis Szidat, 1973 (Digenea: Haploporidae) a valid species? Genetic and morphological studies of this controversial species

Article

Dec 2024
J HELMINTHOL

Saccocoelioides is a genus within the family Haploporidae and is distributed throughout the Americas. The recent application of molecular techniques has facilitated the reorganization of this genus and the description of new species, resulting in a current total of 28 species. In Argentina, 11 species have been identified; however, the validity of Saccocoelioides bacilliformis and Saccocoelioides octavus remains controversial. Recently, specimens of digeneans were collected from two distinct geographical locations: the Paraná River basin (Misiones province) and the Río de la Plata basin (Buenos Aires province). These specimens were found parasitizing two different fish species: Bryconamericus sylvicola and Bryconamericus iheringi. Sequences of the 28S and COI genes were obtained for both digeneans from the two collection sites and hosts. The morphological study, combined with genetic sequences, confirmed their assignment to the genus Saccocoelioides. The COI and 28S gene sequences obtained from specimens at both collection sites exhibited genetic distances of 0.13% and 3.41%, respectively, indicating that these Saccocoelioides specimens represent a single species. The comprehensive taxonomic study of the newly collected specimens, along with an examination of the type material of S. bacilliformis and S. octavus, allows us to confirm the validity of both species. Argentina is home to more than 550 species of freshwater fauna, and it is likely that new species of Saccocoelioides remain to be discovered in underexplored regions of the basin, such as the Uruguay, Pilcomayo and Bermejo rivers.

Integrative analysis of new Clinostomum metacercariae (Digenea, Clinostomidae) using COI mtDNA and morphology rises the number of lineages found in South American freshwater fishes

Article

Nov 2023
J HELMINTHOL

Clinostomidae is a diverse family of digenean parasitizing fish-eating birds as adults and fishes as metacercariae. The species composition, within the genus Clinostomum has been steadily increasing in recent years. In Argentina, four named species of Clinostomum have been documented, accompanied by four metacercariae representing distinct genetic lineages whose adults have not been identified. This study focused on examining clinostomids in three fish species-Australo-heros scitulus (ASI), Cichlasoma dimerus (CDIM), and Pimelodella laticeps (PLA)-at various localities in Argentina. We conducted both morphological and molecular characterizations of the Clinostomum metacercariae collected from these fish species. Molecular phylogenetic analyses using COI mtDNA were performed to determine the placement of these metacercariae within the clinostomid phylogenetic tree. Clinostomum ASC represents a distinct lineage, morphologically distinguishable from other sequenced metacercariae due to its body shape (widest anteriorly and becoming slender towards the posterior end); this lineage was found to be closely related to C. caffarae. While Clinostomum CDIM and Clinostomum PLA exhibited morphological differences , they clustered together genetically with metacercariae reported in previous studies as Clinostomum L3 and Clinostomum CVI. This outcome, coupled with a low genetic distance (0 to 3%), suggests that they are conspecific with metacercariae found in fish across Mexico, Costa Rica, and Argentina. In light of the extensive diversity of fish species in Argentine freshwater ecosystems (over 500 species), and considering the relatively constrained extent of prior investigations , the anticipation of unearthing additional Clinostomum species or lineages is plausible.

J HELMINTHOL

Clinostomids are a group of digeneans in which substantial diversity has been recently discovered, with some metacercariae specific to their fish hosts. Genetic analysis has been instrumental in elucidating species diversity within this genus. Recently, seven COI lineages were reported in Argentina, along with three metacercarial morphotypes lacking molecular data. Two of these were found parasitising Rivulidae fishes. The discovery of Clinostomum metacercariae in Trigo-nectes aplocheiloides and Titanolebias monstrosus from temporary ponds in the western Chacoan region allowed us to redescribe the metacercariae previously identified by other authors and provide the first sequences of this lineage. The morphology of the metacercariae in both hosts matched previously reported descriptions. Genetic analysis clustered the new lineage with Clinostomum detruncatum, Clinostomum sp. 7, Clinostomum L1, and Clinostomum CRA. This discovery leaves only two morphological records of metacercariae to be characterised using DNA sequencing: one in another Rivulidae (Neofundulus paraguayensis) and one in a Loricaridae (Hypostomus sp.). The present results represent the eighth clinostomid lineage sequenced from Argentina, highlighting the extensive diversity in South America and the many lineages yet to be described or identified, considering that only one of these lineages is formally described based on adult specimens found in the heron Ardea cocoi.

Horticultural land use effect on fish assemblages in Neotropical lowland streams, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Article

Apr 2024

Agriculture is one of the main factors associated with global biodiversity loss. The present study assesses the impact of horticultural land use on water quality and fish assemblage composition in lowland Pampean streams. Four samplings were conducted with seasonal frequency during 2018 and 2019 in three horticultural stream reaches (HSR) and three grassland reaches (GSR) with low anthropic intervention, two also located in a biosphere reserve area. Environmental parameters were determined, and water and sediment samples were taken for nutrient and pesticide analysis, respectively. Fish assemblages were sampled in two habitat types: open water (OW) and vegetated patches (VP). The concentration of soluble reactive phosphorus and the detection frequency and concentration of pesticides were significatively higher in HSR mainly attributed to the runoff events following application of fertilizers and pesticides to the surrounding crops. Specific richness was significantly higher in GSR for both OW and VP environments. Diversity and evenness in the VP were significantly higher in GSR, while abundance was significantly higher in HSR due to the dominance of the environmental pollution-tolerant taxa of the order Cyprinodontiformes. The multivariate analysis recorded a major contribution of the order Cyprinodontiformes in the HSR, while the GSR species of the order Characiformes, common in environments of low environmental impact, were better represented. Our study demonstrated water quality deterioration associated with horticultural land use resulting in a ruderal fish community. On-going horticulture expansion is expected to cause further deterioration within the region, unless managerial practices are implemented.

Description of Saccocoelioides miguelmontesi n. sp. (Digenea: Haploporidae) from characid fishes in the Iguazu River Basin based on morphological and molecular evidence

Article

Mar 2024
J HELMINTHOL

Here we describe a new species of the genus Saccocoelioides found parasitizing Astyanax dissimilis Garavello & Sampaio, Psalidodon bifasciatus (Garavello and Sampaio) and Bryconamericus ikaa Casciotta, Almirón & Azpelicueta from the Iguazu National Park, Misiones province, Argentina. Saccocoelioides miguelmontesi n. sp. was studied based on morphological and molecular (28S rDNA and COI mtDNA sequences) data. The COI mtDNA tree indicated that the specimens collected from the three fish hosts are conspecific, with an intragroup p-distance of 0%. The new species shows an intermediate morphological configuration between the diminutive and robust forms described for Saccocoelioides by Curran (2018). Although, in the 28S rDNA tree, it is placed in a well-supported clade with the two robust species analysed ( S. elongatus and S . magnus ; p-distance of 1 and 2%, respectively), it differs from the robust group by the range of body size, mature egg size, oral and ventral sucker size, sucker ratio, oral sucker to pharynx ratio, and post-cecal or post-testis/body length percentage. Our results led us to redefine the robust group as having eggs shorter or equal in length to the pharynx. Saccocoelioides miguelmontesi n. sp. the 10 th species reported from Argentina and the 7 th species within the robust group.

THE "CASCUDO AMARELLO" Hypostomus luteus (GODOY, 1980) IN ARGENTINA El "cascudo amarello" Hypostomus luteus (Godoy, 1980) en Argentina A batch of Hypostomus luteus collected in the Uruguay River basin in the province of Mis-iones is described. The specimens analyzed here allow this species to be safely incorporated into the lists of fish present in the Argentine Republic. In addition, descriptions are provided that we consider useful for the recognition of this species. After reviewing the lists containing Hypostomus for Argentina, we propose to eliminate four species that are actually not present in our waters or whose description makes their reliable geographic or taxonomic location impossible. By this we limit the list of Hypostomus species with a confirmed Argentinean distribution to 22 species.

Systematic revision of the Neotropical catfish genus Scleronema (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae), with descriptions of six new species from Pampa grasslands

Article

Full-text available

Jan 2020
NEOTROP ICHTHYOL

The Neotropical genus Scleronema is revised based on the re-examination of the type specimens and 1,713 newly collected specimens. Scleronema is diagnosed from other trichomycterids by the following unambiguous derived characters: fleshy flap at the base of the maxillary barbell; skin flap in the posterior margin of the opercle; articulation between the autopalatine and the vomer ventrally located, with the medial margins of the autopalatines very close to each other; and autopalatine with an interrupted or not interrupted ossified arch-shaped process on its dorsal surface forming a canal. Scleronema minutum and S. operculatum are redescribed, S. angustirostre is considered a junior synonym of S. minutum, and six new species are described. A lectotype is designated for Trichomycterus minutus. The type localities of S. angustirostre, S. minutum, and S. operculatum are reviewed in order to correct erroneous information cited in articles and catalogs subsequent to the original descriptions. Species of Scleronema are geographically distributed in the La Plata basin and Atlantic coastal drainages from Southern Brazil, Southern Paraguay, Northeastern Argentina and Uruguay. They inhabit rivers or streams with sand- or gravel-bottoms across the Pampa grasslands. We provide evidences to recognize two putative monophyletic units within the genus, namely the S. minutum species group and the S. operculatum species group, and discuss the distribution patterns of their species.

For more than 150 years Oligosarcus hepsetus (Cuvier, 1829) has been considered to be distributed in the freshwaters of Argentina and Uruguay. An analysis of literature accounts revealed that the records of this species from these countries were erroneous due to misidentifications with either Oligosarcus oligolepis (Steindachner, 1867) or O. jenynsii (Guenther, 1864).

Jenynsia lineata species complex, revision and new species description (Cyprinodontiformes: Anablepidae): revision of jenynsia lineata species complex

Article

Full-text available

Mar 2018

Pedro Fasura de Amorim

The Jenynsia lineata species complex comprises J. lineata from Montevideo, Uruguay and Jenynsia multidentata, from coastal basins of Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina up to 1200 m a.s.l. Taxonomic divisions within this group were tested using three different species delimitation methods, which found the two existing names to be synonyms and revealed a new cryptic species. Jenynsia darwini sp. nov. is distinguished from all congeners by having a unique combination of character states, including the shape of the dorsal postcleithrum (three times higher than wide v. less than two times higher than wide) and female colour pattern in the half of the caudal peduncle with rows of chromatophores segmented in unaligned spots (v. aligned spots forming lines). The new species also differs from J. lineata by having 26 nucleotide substitutions in the mitochondrial gene cytochrome c oxidase I (coI). Phylogenetic analysis of the genus based on morphological characters proposed by previous studies corroborates monophyly of the subgenera Plesiojenynsia and Jenynsia, with the new species being allocated to the subgenus Jenynsia as the sister group of J. lineata.

Comparative morphology and classification of South American cynopoeciline killifishes (Cyprinodontiformes: Aplocheilidae), with notes on family-group names used for aplocheiloids

Article

Oct 2016

Wilson J e M Costa

A comparative morphological study involving all cynopoeciline killifishes indicates that Leptolebias marmoratus is more closely related to species of the genera Campellolebias and Cynopoecilus than to other species of Leptolebias, and that Mucurilebias leitaoi is the sister group of a clade comprising all other cynopoecilines. Leptopanchax, new genus, is described to place species that share urogenital papilla in males separated from the anal-fin origin by broad interspace, basal portion of the urogenital papilla in males not forming a pronounced wide structure, absence of thickened tissue on the basal portion of the anal fin in males, caudal fin oval and symmetrical in males, anterior proximal radials of the anal fin not placed in close proximity in males, presence of a broad iridescent golden stripe on the distal zone of the dorsal fin in males, and caudal fin with vermiculate dark red marks in males. Poecilopanchax, new subgenus of Cynopoecilus, is diagnosed by having the basihyal narrow, about rectangular, the interarcual element of the dorsal branchial arch ossified, the uncinate process of the third epibranchial distinctively widened, a long filamentous ray on the tip of the anal fin in males, caudal fin lanceolate in males, dark bars on the flank in females, branchiostegal region with intense red pigmentation in males, a brownish red stripe on the basal portion of the dorsal fin in males, and dark red marks extending to the antero-distal margin of the dorsal fin in males. This study follows an old classificatory scheme in which all aplocheiloids are placed in a single family, the Aplocheilidae.
