ZooKeys 923: 91–113. https://doi.org/10.3897/ zookeys.923.48420 Abstract Through the analysis of a comprehensive database of COI sequences, with the sequencing of 48 speci- mens, a first insight into the genetic diversity, distribution and relationships between the southern Africa “Lacustricola” species is presented. Species from “Lacustricola” occur mainly in freshwater systems within the arid savanna, and are considered to be widely distributed in southern Africa, but most of them are data deficient taxa. Two species are redescribed, “Lacustricola” johnstoni (Günther, 1894) and “Lacustri- cola” myaposae (Boulenger, 1908), based on specimens collected at their respective type localities. -

J. SCHEEL!s flRivuline Studies” 3. DAS SCHEEL* s "Rivuline Studies” (1974) and "Rivulins of the Old World” (1968) are two of the most comprehensive publications on Cyprinodontidae, at least of tropical Africa, and are studied by every researcher on Cyprinodontid fishes• The lack of any index of scientific names in "Rivuline Studies” must be felt seriously. Therefore this paper will give such an index. The names in the index are presented as expressed by SCHEEL without any comments. It doesn't be the right time now to decide whether the inclusion of Rolofia in Aphyose- mion or Epiplatys in Aplocheilus, etc. as done by SCHEEL is correct, or whether the new generic names (Diapteron, Foersch- ichthys, etc.) proposed by various authors (e. g. RADDA, HUBER, WILDEKAMP) are valid or not. Detailed revisions of the major groups of the Cyprinodontiformes (sensu PARENTI, 1981) at species level are overdue. -

It consists of many different levels with species richness as the most frequently used measure. Despite its generally lower species richness compared to littoral zones, the global importance of the pelagic realm in marine and freshwater ecosystems lies in the high level of productivity supporting fisheries worldwide. In terms of endemicity, Lake Tanganyika is one of the most exceptional freshwater study areas in the world. While dozens of studies focus on this lake’s cichlids as model organisms, our knowledge about the economically important fish species is still poor. Despite their important role in speciation processes, parasite taxa have been vastly ignored in the African Great Lakes including Lake Tanganyika for many years. -
Multigene Phylogeny of Cyprinodontiform Fishes Suggests Continental Radiations and a Rogue Taxon Position of Pantanodon
65 (1): 37 – 44 © Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung, 2015. 4.5.2015 Multigene phylogeny of cyprinodontiform fishes suggests continental radiations and a rogue taxon position of Pantanodon Moritz Pohl 1, Finn C.

Published online at www.senckenberg.de / vertebrate-zoology on 4.v.2015. Abstract We studied phylogenetic relationships among major clades in the tooth carps (Cyprinodontiformes) based on a concatenated DNA se- quence alignment of two mitochondrial and three nuclear gene segments, totalling 2553 bp, in 66 ingroup terminals. The inferred tree sup- ports monophyly of the major tooth carp subgroups, aplocheiloids and cyprinodontoids, and of several aplocheiloid subclades correspond- ing to the well-established families (Aplocheilidae, Nothobranchiidae, Rivulidae), each of which is restricted to major continental settings (India-Madagascar, Africa, South America). Contrary to previous molecular studies, our tree supports a sister-group relationship of the aplocheilids and nothobranchiids, rather than a nothobranchiid-rivulid clade. Within cyprinodontoids, the phylogeny matched more closely continent-scale distribution than current classification, suggesting that the delimitation of the families Cyprinodontidae, Poeciliidae, and Valenciidae is in need of revision. The East African Pantanodon stuhlmanni did not show close relationships with any other taxon in our analysis, suggesting that the phylogenetic position and classification of this rogue taxon is in need of further study. -

These differ considerably in body shape from the two previously de- scribed species, H. stictopleuron and H. silvestris, with two deep bodied and one small and slender species. A redefinition of the diagnostic characters of the genus Hylopanchax is presented, including pronounced sexual dimorphism.
