Fishes inhabiting Amazonian floodplain lakes exhibits a great variety of body shape, which was a key advantage to colonize the several habitats that compose these areas adjacent to the large Amazon rivers. In this paper, we did an ecomorphological analysis of twenty abundant species, sampled in May and August 2011, into two floodplain lakes of the lower stretch of the Solimões River. The analysis detected differences among species, which could be probably associated with swimming ability and habitat use preferences.
栖息在亚马逊河漫滩湖泊中的鱼类呈现出多种多样的体型，这是它们在这片毗邻亚马逊大河的区域内占据多个栖息地的关键优势。在本文中，我们对2011年5月和8月从索利蒙伊斯河下游的两个河漫滩湖泊中采集的20种常见鱼类进行了生态形态学分析。分析发现不同物种之间存在差异，这可能与游泳能力和栖息地使用偏好有关。
