COMPILED BY KAKOOLWA FLORENCE ASSISTANT LIBRARIAN OCTOBER 2001 , , PREFACE: Using the reference manager, literature on Lake Victoria is continuously up ,dated, This is the first step by creating a electronic bibliography. The bibliography inCludes materials books, journals, reprints, annual reports and grey literature. This compilation is comprised of two parts. Part one is an inventory of books and there 260 records: The second part has 236 records of reprints. 'It has to be realised that FIRRI data centre includes over 3000 reference books, 200, periodicals and over two million reprints and a thousands of grey literature including annual reports. With time all this will be included in the data base. The records are arranged by author and alphabetically. This bibliography gives the author, title, publisher in case of published books, title of the periodical, volume, issue number, year of publication. We have given the language in which the article is written. The Key words are also given to help the ,user of this bibliography to select what is relevant to his/her interest. ..--- , .

    Lake Rukwa Tilapia (Oreochromis rukwaensis) Ecological Risk Screening Summary U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, March 2012 Revised, July 2018 Web Version, 6/4/2020 Organism Type: Fish Overall Risk Assessment Category: Uncertain 1 Native Range and Status in the United States Native Range From Froese and Pauly (2018): “Africa: Lake Rukwa in Tanzania.” From Shechonge et al. (2019): “Oreochromis rukwaensis (Hilgendorf & Pappenheim 1903) previously known only from Lake Rukwa was present in an upstream section of the Ruaha river system, where a major exploited population was recorded at the Mtera Dam Lake [Tanzania].” Status in the United States No records of Oreochromis rukwaensis occurrences in the United States were found. No information on trade of O. rukwaensis in the United States was found. 1 The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has listed the tilapia, Oreochromis rukwaensis as a prohibited species. Prohibited nonnative species (FFWCC 2020), "are considered to be dangerous to the ecology and/or the health and welfare of the people of Florida. These species are not allowed to be personally possessed or used for commercial activities." Means of Introductions in the United States No records of Oreochromis rukwaensis occurrences in the United States were found. Remarks No additional remarks. 2 Biology and Ecology Taxonomic Hierarchy and Taxonomic Standing According to Eschmeyer et al. (2018), Oreochromis rukwaensis (Hilgendorf and Pappenheim 1903) is the current valid name of this species. From ITIS (2018): Kingdom Animalia

  • Checklist of the Cichlid Fishes of Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa)
    Checklist of the Cichlid Fishes of Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa/Niassa) by M.K. Oliver, Ph.D. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Checklist of the Cichlid Fishes of Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa/Niassa) by Michael K. Oliver, Ph.D. Peabody Museum of Natural History, Yale University Updated 24 June 2020 First posted June 1999 The cichlids of Lake Malawi constitute the largest vertebrate species flock and largest lacustrine fish fauna on earth. This list includes all cichlid species, and the few subspecies, that have been formally described and named. Many–several hundred–additional endemic cichlid species are known but still undescribed, and this fact must be considered in assessing the biodiversity of the lake. Recent estimates of the total size of the lake’s cichlid fauna, counting both described and known but undescribed species, range from 700–843 species (Turner et al., 2001; Snoeks, 2001; Konings, 2007) or even 1000 species (Konings 2016). Additional undescribed species are still frequently being discovered, particularly in previously unexplored isolated locations and in deep water. The entire Lake Malawi cichlid metaflock is composed of two, possibly separate, endemic assemblages, the “Hap” group and the Mbuna group. Neither has been convincingly shown to be monophyletic. Membership in one or the other, or nonendemic status, is indicated in the checklist below for each genus, as is the type species of each endemic genus. The classification and synonymies are primarily based on the Catalog of Fishes with a few deviations. All synonymized genera and species should now be listed under their senior synonym. Nearly all species are endemic to L. Malawi, in some cases extending also into the upper Shiré River including Lake Malombe and even into the middle Shiré.

Together with its indigenous congener O. variabilis, it was displaced from Lakes Victoria and Kyoga of LVR and was found to survive as isolated small populations within the peripheral minor lakes and reservoirs around the two lakes. Displacement of the two LVR indigenous tilapiines was thought to be principally driven by changed lake environment and predation by the introduced Nile perch, but also competition and genetic swamping by the closely related introduced and comparatively more ecologically versatile tilapine species. In a study carried out in the LVR between 1993 and 2003, micro satellites and RAPD markers were used to analyse the remnant populations so as to establish the population structure and extant genetic diversity of O. esculentus. Analyses indicated that the surviving O. esculentus retained a high proportion of genetic diversity with high differentiation between units an indication of genetic exchange between indigenous and introduced Nile tilapia where the two forms co-existed.

  • The Origin of Alternative Phenotypes in Fishes
    View metadata, citation broughtandCORE similar to you papers by at core.ac.uk provided by OpenGrey Repository THE ORIGIN OF ALTERNATIVE PHENOTYPES IN FISHES BY MÓNICA VANESSA GARDUÑO PAZ THIS THESIS IS SUBMITTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT OF ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY, FACULTY OF BIOMEDICAL & LIFE SCIENCES. JULY 2009 © MÓNICA VANESSA GARDUÑO PAZ 2009 i ABSTRACT A basic aim of evolutionary biology is to explain the enormous diversity among animal and plant species. But also within species there is often large genetic and phenotypic variation, and such variation is necessary for evolution to create new reproductively isolated species. The present thesis is directed to explain differentiation within populations highlighting and discussing the significance of phenotypic plasticity as an evolutionary process that leads to the expression of alternative phenotypes within a species. Such phenotypic expressions are particularly interesting, because the process by which new species are formed typically involves a temporary stage within the splitting species, that is, different heritable and distinct types that coexist within the same population. Such phenotypes may be raw material for full species formation, and the study of alternative-phenotype species should therefore be particularly worthwhile in speciation research. When alternative phenotypes are not entirely genetic they may arise as a result of developmental plasticity, when organisms develop in accordance with local abiotic
