Museomics reveals the phylogenetic position of the extinct Moroccan trout Salmo pallaryi.

The authors used museomics to reconstruct the mitochondrial genome from two individuals of the Moroccan, endemic and extinct trout, Salmo pallaryi. They further obtained partial data from 21 nuclear genes previously used for trout phylogenetic analyses. Phylogenetic analyses, including publicly available data from the mitochondrial control region and the cytochrome b gene, and the 21 nuclear genes, place S.

Conjectures and refutations: Species diversity and phylogeny of Australoheros from coastal rivers of southern South America (Teleostei: Cichlidae).

Morphological and genetic analyses of species of Australoheros focusing on those distributed in coastal rivers from the Rio de La Plata north to the Rio Buranhém, support recognition of 17 valid species in the genus. Eight species are represented in coastal rivers: A acaroides, A. facetus, A.

The taxonomic status of grass snake, Natrix natrix (Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Colubridae), with designation of a neotype.

As part of an investigation into the status of the near threatened Gotland grass snake, Natrix natrix gotlandica Nilson Andrén, 1981, endemic to the island of Gotland, we discovered that Linnaeus' type series of the common grass snake, Natrix natrix (Linnaeus, 1758), is comprised of specimens from three different currently recognized species.                To stabilize the usage of the name Coluber natrix, we investigate Linnaeus' type series, and a specimen which Linnaeus in 1741 examined west of the Swedish city of Nyköping is designated lectotype. The lectotype has since been lost, and a newly collected specimen from the same locality is designated neotype for Coluber natrix.
