The Amazon basin is an important region and intriguing in terms of diversity of freshwater fish. Traditional methods has been essential in knowledge the fishes species diversity in the region, but new methods are essential for the monitoring of this biodiversity. The environmental DNA method is a novel, sensitive, efficient, effective and noinvasive method in biological research. However, the sensitivity of the eDNA has not yet been fully evaluated, and the probability of detecting species at the site of study has been shown to be dependent of the environmental factors, sample collection methods, laboratory methods, and data analyzes. Thus, this opinion seek give the light in the research that were development in the region with applied this innovative method.
