The document confirms some fish species that I previously had a question mark against such as the January Tetra (Hemigrammus hyanuary) and other (non-tetra) species.martin rick wrote: ↑Thu Jul 15, 2021 21:16 pmI think the English translation for the abstract is misleading. The "vaciente" (emptying) season should correspond to the dry season and the "cresciente" (growing) would be better translated as the wet season.Stephen wrote: ↑Thu Jul 15, 2021 19:40 pmApparently a plane crashed in to the Rio Nanay years ago that was carrying a shipment of live discus and therefore discus were accidentally introduced and thrived.martin rick wrote: ↑Thu Jul 15, 2021 18:49 pm Apparently the Nanay river contains several species not native to it. During the rainy season, lakes are formed that are fed from one river and continuing rain may let it drain into the Nanay. Discus were mentioned as one of the non-indigenous species. That is according to a Spanish speaking local on you tube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4LcFleFmFsu
Scrolling down about half way on http://www.scielo.org.pe/scielo.php?scr ... 0000100004 there's a list of all the species that were found in a recent university survey including about 30 Charicidae.
The document looks interesting, I'll read it later. Thanks for that, appreciated.
PS the paper was originally published in 2010 so it's not that up to date.
Thank you.
