Of these, seven have been described as distinct species for the first time - although in two cases this required inspection of specimens from historical collections, since eutrophication of lakes in the 20th century also led to the extinction of fish species in Central Switzerland. (pensoft.net)

Siluriformes2
The Characiformes form a group known as the Characiphysi with the Siluriformes and Gymnotiformes. (wikipedia.org)
The order Characiformes is the sister group to the orders Siluriformes and Gymnotiformes, though this has been debated in light of recent molecular evidence. (wikipedia.org)

Thus, the present study will be fundamental for a better understanding of what groups belong to Characiformes and to test the hypotheses about the relations among families, the relationships among genera and species within families and the historical biogeography of the group who is now distributed in many basins of the Ethiopic and Neotropical regions.
