Hypoxic environments as refuge against predatory fish in the Amazonian floodplains

Hypoxic environments as refuge against predatory fish in the Amazonian floodplains

Several groups of Amazonian fishes exhibit behavioral, morphological and physiological characteristics that allow occupying hypoxic environments, despite the energetic costs of living in such harsh conditions. One of the supposed advantages of occupying hypoxic habitats would be a lower predation pr...
