ResumoThis study distinguished hybrids of surubim or pintado Pseudoplatystoma corruscans and cachara Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum from pure strains using a set of eight microsatellite markers and population assignment methods. Applications of this molecular tool range from certification of hybrid‐free breeders in restocking conservation programmes to the identification of fish products lacking traditional morphological characteristics.
