Community structure of invertebrate fauna in central Chilean rivers.
De Los Ríos Escalante, Patricio; Díaz, Gustavo; González, Jorge; Górski, Konrad; Habit, Evelyn (2019-01)River systems of Central Chile are short, steep and fast flowing. They are characterized by discharge regimes dominated by rainfall and snowmelt. Invertebrate fauna is highly endemic. This study aimed to describe the ... -
Fragmentation of Chilean Andean rivers: expected effects of hydropower development
Díaz, Gustavo; Arriagada, Pedro; Górski, Konrad; Link, Oscar; Karelovic, Bruno; González, Jorge; Habit, Evelyn (2019-06)Fragmentation (establishment of barriers e.g., hydropower dams, reservoirs for irrigation) is considered one of the greatest threats to conservation of river systems worldwide. In this paper we determine the fragmentation ... -
Historical and contemporary diversity of galaxiids in south america: biogeographic and phylogenetic perspectives
Vera Escalona, Iván; Delgado Aquije, Maria Lisette; Habit, Evelyn; Ruzzante, Daniel (2020-08)Galaxiid fishes from South America are represented by three genera (Aplochiton, Brachygalaxias and Galaxias) and eight species. Their genetic patterns have been studied over the last two decades to disentangle how historical ... -
Hydrological connectivity drives longitudinal movement of endangered endemic Chilean darter Percilia irwini (Eigenmann, 1927)
Vivancos, Aurélien; Górski, Konrad; Manosalva, Aliro; Toledo, Bárbara; Reid, Malcolm; Habit, Evelyn (2021)Movement is a fundamental aspect of fish ecology, and it therefore represents an important trait to monitor for the management and conservation of fish populations. This is especially true for small benthic fish, as they ... -
Invasive species and postglacial colonization: their effects on the genetic diversity of a Patagonian fish
Vera Escalona, Iván; Habit, Evelyn; Ruzzante, Daniel E. (2019-02-27)The present distribution of Patagonian species is the result of a complex history involving Quaternary refugial populations, Holocene range expansions and demographic changes occurring during the Anthropocene. Invasive ... -
Latitudinal and Altitudinal Gradients of Riverine Landscapes in Andean Rivers
Habit, Evelyn; Zurita, Alejandra; Díaz, Gustavo; Manosalva, Aliro; Arriagada, Pedro; Link, Oscar; Górski, Konrad (2022)Exact knowledge of the physical structures of different river sections that govern their ecological structure and function is essential for the efficient conservation and management of riverine ecosystems. Eleven Andean ... -
New insights into the distribution, physiology and life histories of South American galaxiid fishes, and potential threats to this unique fauna
Cussac, Víctor Enrique; Barrantes, María Eugenia; Boy, Claudia Clementina; Górski, Konrad; Habit, Evelyn; Lattuca, María Eugenia; Rojo, Javier Hernán (2020-05)South American galaxiids occupy both Patagonia and the ichthyogeographic Chilean Province, encompassing glacial Andean deep lakes, shallow plateau lakes, reservoirs, short Pacific rivers and long Atlantic rivers. The total ... -
Taxonomic and Functional Responses of Species-Poor Riverine Fish Assemblages to the Interplay of Human-Induced Stressors
Colin, Nicole; Habit, Evelyn; Manosalva, Aliro; Maceda Veiga, Alberto; Górski, Konrad (2022)The effects of human-induced stressors on riverine fish assemblages are still poorly un- derstood, especially in species-poor assemblages such as those of temperate South American rivers. In this study we evaluated the ... -
Trophic scaling of Percichthys trucha (Percichthyidae) in monospecific and multispecific lakes in western Patagonia
Ortiz Sandoval, Juan José; Górski, Konrad; González Díaz, Alonso; Habit, Evelyn (2015)Percichthys trucha is a freshwater fish, endemic to southern South America and widely distributed in both, eastern and western sides of the Andes. P. trucha has been described as top native predator in lacustrine ecosystems, ...
