Convergent Evolution of Weakly Electric Fishes from Floodplain Habitats in Africa and South America
Environmental Biology of Fishes 49: 175–186, 1997. 1997 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Convergent evolution of weakly electric fishes from floodplain habitats in Africa and South America Kirk O. Winemiller & Alphonse Adite Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, U.S.A. Received 19.7.1995 Accepted 27.5.1996 Key words: diet, electrogenesis, electroreception, foraging, morphology, niche, Venezuela, Zambia Synopsis An assemblage of seven gymnotiform fishes in Venezuela was compared with an assemblage of six mormyri- form fishes in Zambia to test the assumption of convergent evolution in the two groups of very distantly related, weakly electric, noctournal fishes. Both assemblages occur in strongly seasonal floodplain habitats, but the upper Zambezi floodplain in Zambia covers a much larger area. The two assemblages had broad diet overlap but relatively narrow overlap of morphological attributes associated with feeding. The gymnotiform assemblage had greater morphological variation, but mormyriforms had more dietary variation. There was ample evidence of evolutionary convergence based on both morphology and diet, and this was despite the fact that species pairwise morphological similarity and dietary similarity were uncorrelated in this dataset. For the most part, the two groups have diversified in a convergent fashion within the confines of their broader niche as nocturnal invertebrate feeders. Both assemblages contain midwater planktivores, microphagous vegetation- dwellers, macrophagous benthic foragers, and long-snouted benthic probers. The gymnotiform assemblage has one piscivore, a niche not represented in the upper Zambezi mormyriform assemblage, but present in the form of Mormyrops deliciousus in the lower Zambezi and many other regions of Africa. -
Chirping and Asymmetric Jamming Avoidance Responses in the Electric Fish Distocyclus Conirostris Jacquelyn M

Petzold1,2, JoséA. Alves-Gomes3 and G. Troy Smith1,2,* ABSTRACT of two of more EODs creates a periodic amplitude modulation Electrosensory systems of weakly electric fish must accommodate (beat). Beat frequency is equal to the difference between the EOD competing demands of sensing the environment (electrolocation) frequencies (EODfs) of the two interacting fish. Fish use the beat and receiving social information (electrocommunication). The and the relative geometry of the interacting signals to estimate jamming avoidance response (JAR) is a behavioral strategy thought conspecific EODfs, which convey important social information to reduce electrosensory interference from conspecific signals close (Smith, 2013; Dunlap, et al., 2017). However, slow beats (<10 Hz) in frequency. We used playback experiments to characterize electric created by interactions between fish with similar EODfs can impair organ discharge frequency (EODf), chirping behavior and the JAR of the electrolocation function of the EOD by masking localized EOD Distocyclus conirostris, a gregarious electric fish species. EODs of D. distortions (Heiligenberg, 1973; Matsubara and Heiligenberg, conirostris had low frequencies (∼80–200 Hz) that shifted in response 1978). The JAR is a stereotyped response in which an electric to playback stimuli. Fish consistently lowered EODf in response to fish increases or decreases its EODf to increase beat frequency and higher-frequency stimuli but inconsistently raised or lowered EODf in thereby reduce or eliminate the interference caused by slow beats response to lower-frequency stimuli. -

Triques Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Av. Antônio Carlos 6627, Pampulha, 31270- 901, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brasil. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Cladistic analysis of external morphology and skeletal characters of Apteronotidae (Teleostei: Gymnotyiformes). Cladistic analysis of external morphology and skeletal characters was undertaken for 37 species of Apteronotidae, Neotropical electric fishes. Orthosternarchus + Sternarchorhamphus (included here in Sternarchorhamphinae status novo) are proposed to be the sister taxa to all remaining apteronotids, most of which form a basal polytomy in Apteronotinae. Several apteronotid species are currently incertae sedis but the monophyly of several genera were corroborated. Sternarchorhynchus is proposed to be the sister group of Ubidia magdalensis + Platyurosternarchus macrostomus, together forming the Sternarchorhynchini. Snout elongation was revealed to have occurred in several independent evolutionary lines as the Sternar- chorhynchini, Orthosternarchus and Sternarchorhamphus. Apteronotus is restricted here to A. albifrons + A. jurubidae and postulated to be the sister group to Parapteronotus, which includes P. hasemani + P. macrostomus. “Apteronotus” leptorhynchus is postulated to be the sister group to “Apteronotus” -
