Abstract excerpt
Giant featherback (Chitala lopis) is an ancient species of freshwater fish considered globally extinct until extant populations were re-discovered in the Sundaland region of Indonesia in 2022. To improve management of the remaining populations, this study used genomic DNA and landmark-based geometric morphometric analyses of fish scales to evaluate whether these approaches can discriminate among phylogenetic...
