FIG. 1 in New records and range extensions to the Costa Rican freshwater fish fauna, with an updated checklist
FIG. 1. Map of Costa Rica, Middle America, showing the división into 18 major river drainage basins: Lago de Nicaragua (LN), Río Frío (RF), San Juan (SJ), San Carlos (SC), Sarapiquí (Sa), Tortuguero (To), Parismina (Pa), Matina (Ma) and Sixaola (Si) (Atlantic); Isla del Coco (IC), Nicoya (Ni), Tempisque (Te), Bebedero (Be), Barranca (Ba), Tárcoles (Ta), Pirrís (Pi), Térraba (Tr) and Coto (Co) (Pacific). Part of the Changuinola (Ch) River basin is located in the Costa Rican territory, however, this area was excluded, for practical purposes, from this review due to the lack of fish fauna given its elevation (+2000 m.a.s.l.). Shaded basins drain to the Pacific Ocean, pale basins drain to the Caribbean (Atlantic Ocean). Data from the continental basins was obtained from HydroSHEDS (Lehner et al. 2008). Data from the Isla del Coco basin was obtained from Díaz Bolaños et al. (2012). Map base made by Diego Elias (LSU) and edited by the author.

Supporting tables and figures for Cancel Villamil JJ, Locke SA (2022) - Fish assemblage response to removal of a low‐head dam in the lower reach of a tropical island river, Freshwater Biology
<p>Table S1 summarizes studies of the effects of dams on freshwater fish assemblages</p> <p>Table S2 provides results of fishing in 39 samples in three rivers in Puerto Rico in 2017-2019. See 2, below. </p> <p>Figure S1 shows the relationship between fish species richness and time spent electrofishing in these samples.</p> <p>Abstract of article:</p> <p>1. Dams are often removed from rivers to restore habitat connectivity for biota such as fish. Removal of inland dams is well studied in temperate mainland rivers but this approach has been little studied in fish assemblages in islands, tropic systems, or for dams near the mouth of the river. In Puerto Rico, one of the most intensively dammed territories in the world, all native river fishes migrate between fresh water and the sea, and previous work shows these movements are impeded or blocked by dams.</p> <p>2. Fish assemblages were compared before and after removal of the Cambalache dam, a porous, low-head structure near the mouth of the Río Grande de Arecibo, as well as in two other rivers in Western Puerto Rico, one with a similarly sized and positioned dam, and one reference river without artificial barriers. Fish were sampled using backpack electrofishing on 39 occasions during 2017-2019, including seven samples collected after removal of the Cambalache dam, at between four and six sites per river.</p> <p>3. Fish assemblages upstream from dams were poorer in species, and species richness showed a marginal tendency (P=0.0515) to increase upstream of the Cambalache dam three months after its removal. The two small lowland dams studied herein limited the upstream extent of marine species, which recolonized upstream sites of the Río Grande de Arecibo after removal of the Cambalache dam. An estimate of relative density (catch per unit effort) of common native freshwater species was higher above these two dams, and decreased at upstream sites after removal of the Cambalache dam. The estimated relative density of a native freshwater species that is of conservation concern, the American eel (Anguilla rostrata), was reduced above dams, and increased upstream of the former Cambalache dam after its removal. </p> <p>4. In extensive surveys conducted previously in Puerto Rico, sampling was concentrated higher in the watershed, and native fishes were more common and abundant below than above dams. The present work was conducted near the river mouth, and opposite results were observed. These contrasting results suggest that the effects of dams (or dam removal) on fish assemblages vary along the river gradient, although data from other systems are needed to confirm this.</p> <p>5. The present results suggest low-head dam removal to be a viable method of restoring connectivity in fish assemblages in lower reaches of rivers in Puerto Rico and, potentially, other tropical islands. Removal of dams near the mouth of the river appears to be of particular benefit to marine fish species that use lower river reaches.</p>

Data from: Exploring the phylogeography of a hexaploid freshwater fish by RAD sequencing
The KwaZulu-Natal yellowfish (Labeobarbus natalensis) is an abundant cyprinid, endemic to KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa. In this study we developed a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) dataset from double-digest Restriction-site Associated DNA (ddRAD) sequencing of samples across the distribution. We addressed several hidden challenges, primarily focussing on proper filtering of RAD data and selecting optimal parameters for data processing in polyploid lineages. We used the resulting high-quality SNP dataset to investigate the population genetic structure of L. natalensis. A small number of mitochondrial markers present in these data had disproportionate influence on the recovered genetic structure. The presence of singleton SNPs also confounded genetic structure. We found a well-supported division into northern and southern lineages, with further subdivision into five populations, one of which reflects north-south admixture. Approximate Bayesian Computation scenario testing supported a scenario where an ancestral population diverged into northern and southern lineages, which then diverged to yield the current five populations. All river systems showed similar levels of genetic diversity, which appears unrelated to drainage system size. Nucleotide diversity was highest in the smallest river system, the Mbokodweni, which, together with adjacent small coastal systems, should be considered as a key catchment for conservation.
