Article Synopsis
- The Neotropical freshwater ichthyofauna contains over 5,600 fish species in a small area, making it one of the most diverse vertebrate ecosystems globally.
- A survey in the Fitzcarrald region of southeastern Peru reveals high species diversity, with many fish species coexisting and a significant turnover between different habitats and tributaries.
- Findings suggest that the fish species in Fitzcarrald are ancient due to geographical isolation and habitat specialization, rather than recent adaptive changes, helping to explain their rich biodiversity.
