“…Tissue collection and DNA extractions A total of 208 specimens of the Astyanax and Bramocharax from 141 localities from Panama to the Mexican-USA border (Additional file 3; Figure 3) Table 1), with the exception of the RAG1 gene for which we followed the PCR conditions described in [67]. PCR products were run on 1.0% agarose gels to confirm amplification and purified with the EXOSAP-IT PCR Product Clean -Up (Usb) kit or by ethanol precipitation.…”

Background: Mesoamerica is one of the world's most complex biogeographical regions, mostly due to its complex geological history. This complexity has led to interesting biogeographical processes that have resulted in the current diversity and distribution of fauna in the region. The fish genus Astyanax represents a useful model to assess biogeographical hypotheses due to it being one of the most diverse and widely distributed freshwater fish species in the New World. We used mitochondrial and nuclear DNA to evaluate phylogenetic relationships within the genus in Mesoamerica, and to develop historical biogeographical hypotheses to explain its current distribution.

“…For a smaller subset of 66 individuals from the same localities (see Table 1), we also amplified a 581-bp fragment of the recombinationactivating gene 1 (RAG1), an autosomal marker, using primers RAG1F and RAG9R (Quenouille, Bermingham, & Planes, 2004). PCR thermal cycles were as follows for the ATPase genes: 2-min denaturation at 94°C followed by five cycles of 94°C for 45 s, 53°C for 45 s, and 72°C for 90 s, followed by 29 cycles of 94°C for 45 s, 58°C for 45 s, and 72°C for 90 s, and a final extension of 7 min at 72°C; COI gene: 2-min denaturation at 94°C followed by 35 cycles of 94°C for 30 s, 54°C for 30 s, and 72°C for 60 s, with a final extension of 7 min at 72°C; and RAG1 gene: 5-min denaturation at 94°C followed by 35 cycles of 94°C for 60 s, 54°C for 60 s, and 72°C for 90 s, with a final extension of 7 min at 72°C.…”

The adaptive radiation of the seven-spined gobies (Gobiidae: Gobiosomatini) represents a classic example of how ecological specialization and larval retention can drive speciation through local adaptation. However, geographically widespread and phenotypically uniform species also do occur within Gobiosomatini. This lack of phenotypic variation across large geographic areas could be due to recent colonization, widespread gene flow, or stabilizing selection acting across environmental gradients. We use a phylogeographic approach to test these alternative hypotheses in the naked Haplotype phylogenies and spatial patterns of genetic diversity reveal frequent population bottlenecks followed by rapid population growth, particularly along the Gulf of Mexico. The magnitude of the genetic divergence among intraspecific lineages suggests the existence of cryptic species within Gobiosoma and indicates that modes of speciation can vary among lineages within Gobiidae.

“…The molecular phylogeny of Quenouille et al (2004) illustrated three clades within the genus Abudefduf. Abudefduf species living in the Eastern Pacific are segregated into two of these clades (1) A. troschelii and (2) A. concolor and A. declivifrons.…”

“…From a phylogenetic point of view (Tang 2001;Tang et al 2003;Quenouille et al 2004;), Microspathodon and Azurina can be thought of as derivate taxa from Stegastes and Chromis respectively. Microspathodon is territorial with lower AFA and higher AR than Stegastes, and Azurina is a free swimmer with lower AFA and higher AR than Chromis.…”

Fin shape strongly influences performance of locomotion across all swimming styles. In this study, we focused on the diversity of the pectoral fin morphology in damselfishes of the Eastern Pacific. Underwater observations and a review of literature allowed the characterization of ten behavioral groups. Territorial and non-territorial species were discriminated easily with traditional morphometrics. Five ecomorphological groups were recognized by geometric morphometric analyses. Geometric data segregated the outgroup from the damselfishes and allowed the distinction of mean morphologies from extreme ones within territorial and non-territorial species. Additionally, geometric morphometric data split Abudefduf into two groups: (1) A. troschelii is similar to C. atrilobata and (2) A. concolor and A. declivifrons are close to Stegastes. Solitary territorial species (e.g., Stegastes) show rounded and high fins whereas non-territorial species living in groups (e.g., Chromis) present long and curved pectoral fins. In the range of morphological variation, the morphologies of Microspathodon (elongate with highly curved hydrodynamic trailing edge) and Azurina (long, slender and angular) represent the extreme morphologies within territorial and non-territorial species, respectively. Our study revealed a strong relationship between the pectoral fin shape and the behavioral diversification in damselfishes.
