Fish composition and species richness in eastern South American coastal lagoons: additional support for the freshwater ecoregions of the world

The relationships between fish composition, connectivity and morphometry of 103 lagoons in nine freshwater ecoregions (FEOW) between 2·83° S and 37·64° S were evaluated in order to detect possible congruence between the gradient of species richness and similarities of assemblage composition. Most la...
