“…cuia presented also 99% of identity with Gymnotus new sp. RS2 that, according to Tagliacollo et al (2016), belongs to G. carapo clade and not to G. tigre clade, which includes the species G. inaequilabiatus and G. paraguensis (Maxime, Albert, 2014;Craig et al, 2018). It is possible that the specimens identified as G. inaequilabiatus in previous studies based on Graça, Pavanelli (2007) and Ota et al (2018) may be actually G. cuia.…”

“…Of these species, G. carapo australis, G. cuia, and G. pantanal are ecologically abundant and G. inaequilabiatus, G. pantherinus, G. paraguensis and G. sylvius are not abundant. Gymnotus inaequilabiatus is often misidentified or mistaken for other species, despite the presence of multiple salient external diagnostic characters (Maxime, Albert, 2014) that place it in the G. tigre clade rather than the G. carapo clade. Further, G. inaequilabiatus is unique among congeners in its large adult body size, growing to one-meter total length.…”

“…Among the allochthonous species, Poecilia reticulata was introduced to control mosquito larvae (Ota et al 2018). Cichla piquiti was probably introduced for sport fishing (Langeani et al 2007; Ota et al 2018), and Gymnotus inaequilabiatus originally from the Lower Paraná River, Paraguay and Uruguay rivers (Maxime and Albert 2014), colonized the upper reaches of the Paraná River after the construction of the Itaipu hydroelectric dam in the 1980s. Ota et al (2018) suggested that the occurrence of Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus in the Upper Paraná River can be associated with its introduction as a live bait or after inundation of the Sete Quedas Falls after the construction of the Itaipu dam.…”

“…With CT, it was possible to study the complete anatomy of the coelacanth (Latimeria chalumnae) (Schultze and Cloutier 1991); pacu (Colossoma macroponum) (Carr et al 2014) and meagre (Argyrosomus regius) (Gisbert et al 2012). In addition, this technique assisted the description of anatomical characteristics in specimens of zoological collections resulting in the classification of new species of fish, such as Iracema caiana (Carvalho and Albert 2011) and Gymnotus inaequilabiatus (Maxime and Albert 2014). Moreover, X-rays provide us with only 2D images of the skeleton, but organs can be enhanced with using positive and negative contrast media.…”
