Diversity, ichthyofauna, Yabotí Biosphere ReserveAbstract
The first record of Psalidodon dissensus in water courses of the Misiones province, from specimens from the Yabotí stream, a tributary of the Uruguay River, immersed in the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve, is made. Psalidodon, revalidated from the synonymy of the genus Astyanax, includes 21 new combinations for Argentina, of which seven are present in the river systems of Misiones. The ichthyofauna of the province, belonging to the Parano‐Platense Province, is characterized by its high diversity and endemism, making it a territory of formidable biological value and in urgent need of conservation.
