Some species present morphological distinction and reproduce normally, while others present reproductive isolation without morphological distinction. Taking that into consideration, we used starch-gel electrophoresis of enzymes to compare two species of the genus Pimelodella collected in Paraná, Ivaí and Pirapó rivers of the Upper Paraná River ba… Show more
