  abstract = {{C}onserving freshwater habitats and their biodiversity in the {A}mazon {B}asin is a growing challenge in the face of rapid anthropogenic changes. {W}e used the most comprehensive fish-occurrence database available (2355 valid species; 21,248 sampling points) and 3 ecological criteria (irreplaceability, representativeness, and vulnerability) to identify biodiversity hotspots based on 6 conservation templates (3 proactive, 1 reactive, 1 representative, and 1 balanced) to provide a set of alternative planning solutions for freshwater fish protection in the {A}mazon {B}asin. {W}e identified empirically for each template the 17% of sub-basins that should be conserved and performed a prioritization analysis by identifying current and future (2050) threats (i.e., degree of deforestation and habitat fragmentation by dams). {T}wo of our 3 proactive templates had around 65% of their surface covered by protected areas; high levels of irreplaceability (60% of endemics) and representativeness (71% of the {A}mazonian fish fauna); and low current and future vulnerability. {T}hese 2 templates, then, seemed more robust for conservation prioritization. {T}he future of the selected sub-basins in these 2 proactive templates is not immediately threatened by human activities, and these sub-basins host the largest part of {A}mazonian biodiversity. {T}hey could easily be conserved if no additional threats occur between now and 2050.},
