Trigonectes
''Trigonectes'' is a genus of fish in the family (biology), family Rivulidae. These annual killifish are Endemism, endemic to the Paraguay River, Paraguay, upper Madeira River, Madeira (Beni River, Beni, Guaporé River, Guaporé and Mamoré River, Mamoré) and Tocantins River, Tocantins basins in far northern Argentina, Bolivia, central Brazil and western Paraguay. They inhabit seasonal swamp, pools and similar habitats in open regions (for example, savanna). Once the water disappears, the adults die, but the eggs that have been laid in the bottom remain, only hatching after several months (up to a year) when the water returns. They are relatively large killifish that are up to in total length depending on the exact species. Species There are currently 6 species in this genus: * ''Trigonectes aplocheiloides'' Jean Henri Huber, Huber, 1995 * ''Trigonectes balzanii'' (Alberto Perugia, Perugia, 1891) * ''Trigonectes macrophthalmus'' Wilson José Eduardo Moreira da Costa, W.

Rivulidae
The Rivulidae are a family of killifishes in the order Cyprinodontiformes. They are commonly known as rivulids, South American killifish or New World killifish. The latter names are slightly misleading, however, as they are neither restricted to South America – though most are in fact found there –, nor are they the only killifishes from the Americas. Occasionally, they are still referred to as rivulines, a term dating back to when they were considered a subfamily of the Aplocheilidae. The subfamilial name "Rivulinae" was already established for noctuid moths by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1895. That name, though it is the senior homonym, may be suppressed because the name Rivulinae for the fish subfamily is widespread, whereas the moth taxon is little used. The use of Rivulidae as the name for this family may need to be ruled in by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. The alternative family-group name Cynolebiidae Hoedeman 1961 has been prop ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
