    Abstract A new species of Parotocinclus is described from the Rio Mamanguape basin, in the State of Paraíba, north-eastern Brazil. The new species can be distinguished from all of its congeners, except for P. bahiensis, P. cesarpintoi, P. jumbo, P. nandae and P. spilosoma, by the presence of an abdomen covered by a few small and dispersed platelets (vs. an abdomen entirely covered by large plates in adult individuals or the absence of plates in that region). The new species differs from those mentioned above with respect to several features, such as an exposed pectoral girdle and supporting odontodes medially and laterally, the number of premaxillary and dentary teeth, odontodes covering only the lateral portion of the cleithrum and the absence of irregular golden lines on the head and body (colour in vivo). The new species was collected only in the upper and middle portions of the Rio Mamanguape basin, suggesting a geographic distribution restricted to the Caatinga biome.

    Abstract Characidium tapuia, a new species apparently endemic to the rio Parnaíba basin, Brazil, is described. The new species is easily distinguished from congeners, except C. lanei, C. nana, and C. samurai, by having a broad and conspicuous dark lateral stripe, extending from the tip of snout to the end of caudal peduncle and by the absence of dark vertical bars on body of specimens larger than 23.0 mm SL. Characidium tapuia differs from the aforementioned species by a series of features, including 12 circumpeduncular scales (vs. 13 or 14 in C. lanei and C. samurai), presence of parietal branch of the supraorbital canal (vs. absence in C. lanei and C. nana), complete lateral line and adipose fin present (vs. lateral line incomplete and adipose fin absent in C. nana), and midlateral stripe with irregular borders (vs. lateral stripe with overall straight borders in C. samurai).

    Abstract The mid-north-eastern Caatinga is a semiarid freshwater ecoregion in North-eastern Brazil that is dominated by temporary rivers and is currently classified as one of the least ichthyologically-known ecoregions in the world. The present study aimed to provide an updated checklist of mid-north-eastern Caatinga ecoregion (MNCE) freshwater fish species and evaluate their taxonomic identity using morphology, DNA barcoding and multiple species delimitation approaches. After reviewing published studies and ichthyological collections, 119 species were identified. Among these were 94 putatively valid native and 14 non-native species, five undescribed native species, four new records for the MNCE, 11 potential cases of misidentification and 14 species listed as inquirenda. Additionally, 252 individuals from 49 species were barcoded, revealing three potential taxonomic synonyms. The combined molecular approaches estimated a total of 91 native species, although a finalized species list for the MNCE awaits additional taxonomic revisions and field surveys. This study provides the most up-to-date species checklist for the MNCE and a molecular reference database for identifying MNCE fishes with DNA barcodes. Results highlight the need to integrate traditional taxonomy with molecular approaches to correctly identify species, especially in taxonomically problematic ecoregions such as the MNCE.

    Abstract Cynolebias parnaibensis from the Canindé River drainage, Parnaíba River basin, northeastern Brazil, is described. It is considered to be a member of a clade endemic to the Caatinga. The clade is diagnosed, e. g., by a series of structural modifications of the pharyngeal jaw apparatus, which is related to the sound production exhibited by males during courtship behavior. The courtship sound of C. parnaibensis consists of a single pulse named as thump (duration 0.031-0.133s; interthump intervals 0.020-8.319s; dominant frequency 70.3-93.8 Hz). The new species is distinguished from all other congeners by a combination of 27-31 neuromasts around eye, 29-33 supraorbital neuromasts, 16-18 dorsal-fin rays and 19 anal-fin rays in males, 28-31 caudal-fin rays, 33-36 scales in the longitudinal series, 3+10 gill-rakers in the first branchial arch, absence of second pharyngobranchial teeth, absence of contact organs on the flank scales, 34-35 vertebrae, absence of teeth on vomer, and presence of transverse series of scales on the anal-fin base.

    Abstract Intraspecific morphological variation can be generated by a set of historical and ecological processes, and can be induced by anthropogenic actions. One such activity that has large-scale environmental impacts in freshwater environments is interbasin water transfer. Brazil’s Mid-Northeastern Caatinga freshwater ecoregion is going through an interbasin diversion that will link waters from São Francisco ecoregion with the four major basins of Mid-Northeastern Caatinga. Here, we aimed to evaluate the morphological variation of two cichlids, Cichlasoma orientale and Crenicichla menezesi, from both ecoregions and test, whether this morphological variation is related to historical isolation among basins and/or to local water flow regimes, through mtDNA (cytb) and geometric morphometric approaches. Our results showed, for both species, significant morphological differences among basins. However, the comparisons between genetic and morphological differences among basins were not significant. Additionally, a significant shared morphological pattern between species (body depth and mouth position) among different habitats was found. These results reinforce a potential role of environmental pressures upon fish morphology, possibly through phenotypic plasticity. The evolutionary role of morphological responses in freshwater fish populations—especially in variable environments—is discussed, as well as the potential eco-evolutionary damages that might result from the artificial river connection.
