Great to see our work in this cover !
🚨 Our April Issue is now out! 🚨

This months cover provides a brief overview of the great taxonomical (22 out of >300 species) and morphological diversity of fishes during or shortly after metamorphosis 🐠

Historical biogeography of the Mugil cephalus species complex and its rapid global colonization
Our understanding of speciation processes in marine environments remains very limited and the role of different reproductive barriers are still debate…

Why do seahorses, goatfishes, dragonets and flying gurnards evolve differently across oceans? 🌏🐟 A new study led by Scripps researchers reveals that colonization dynamics drive the decoupling of species richness and morphological diversity. Dive in: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Tagliacollo et al. mine GenBank for 51 markers for 5,984 taxa and produce a "Time-calibrated phylogeny of Neotropical freshwater fishes" in Frontiers in Bioinformatics. A testament to the value of the database I help maintain for biodiversity studies. frontiersin.org/journals/bio...
