Abstract
The Loricarioidea is the largest monophyletic group of catfishes endemic to the Neotropics with about 1,412 valid species assigned to six family-level taxa: Astroblepidae (61 species), Callichthyidae (200 species), Loricariidae (870 species), Nematogenyidae (1 species), Scoloplacidae (6 species) and Trichomycteridae (273 species). Loricarioid fishes are widely distributed throughout fresh…

Harnessing phylogenomic comparative methods to understand the diversification of fishes of the Loricarioidea superfamily, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
The family Loricariidae, one of the largest fish families in the world with 720 species, has been the subject of several taxonomic and systematic studies which have aimed in the understanding of diversity and general patterns of relationships among its genera and species. However, given the wide diversity of the group, many of the problems of the family was not resolved. Recent studies ha…
