PAIR BOND DYNAMICS: EVALUATING LONGITUDINAL CHANGES IN BEHAVIOR AND 11-KETOTESTOSTERONE IN PARENTAL CONVICT CICHLIDS (AMATITLANIA SIQUIA) By CELINE RICHARDS Under the Direction of Edmund Rodgers, PhD ABSTRACT Bi-parental care and pair bonding often coincide in nature. The reproductive success of the organisms that apply this strategy is dependent upon defensive behaviors and territorial aggression. Some of these organisms also display affiliative behavior within the pair pond during the time of parental care. The behavioral dynamics that occur over the course of the pair bond and their relationship to the reproductive success of the organism is not well understood. Convict cichlids (Amatitlania siquia) form pair bonds during the breeding season and provide bi- parental care; their behavioral repertoire is ideal for studying pair bonding. The androgen profile of organisms that provide parental care through aggressive means is also not fully understood.

Is DNA Available for Analysis in Convict Fry, Convict Wrigglers
Is DNA Available for Analysis in Fry, Dead, or Preserved Convict Fish? Yasamin Haider (STAR Fellow) and Dr. Ron Coleman (Research Mentor) California State University, Sacramento Department of Biology Introduction Results Conclusions Structure and relatedness of populations within the same species is crucial to My research has shown that DNA is available for analysis in convict cichlid fry as small understanding its evolutionary configuration. Cryptoheros septemfasciatus is a species as having a Total Length (TL) of 5.2mm. The primers I used, Acit1F and Acit1R, were of cichlid fish (family Cichlidae) that varies greatly from population to population able to enhance both strands of DNA to be amplified which are shown in the gel images where phenotypic differentiation is visible in many different rivers of Costa Rica. These of Figure 5. I was also able to amplify DNA from a frozen convict fin clip and a fin clip variations are caused by the geography of the rivers, large-scale flooding, and tropical from a Pungu maclarani that was preserved in formalin. In the end, knowing that we rainfall. The larger project being conducted aims to answer the questions of relatedness can extract and analyze DNA from convict fry will allow Sasha and Dr. Coleman’s between the different populations of C. septemfasciatus in the many geographically sample collecting process of different populations of C. septemfasciatus in the many close rivers of northern Costa Rica. To achieve this, fish samples must be taken from different rivers of Northern Costa Rica to be more transparent and expeditious. the different populations in the different rivers.

Aggression Towards Shared Enemies by Heterospecific and Conspecific
Oecologia (2019) 191:359–368 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00442-019-04483-0 BEHAVIORAL ECOLOGY – ORIGINAL RESEARCH Aggression towards shared enemies by heterospecifc and conspecifc cichlid fsh neighbours Topi K. Lehtonen1,2 Received: 8 September 2018 / Accepted: 5 August 2019 / Published online: 31 August 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Successful territory defence is a prerequisite for reproduction across many taxa, and often highly sensitive to the actions of territorial neighbours. Nevertheless, to date, assessments of the signifcance of the behaviour of heterospecifc neighbours have been infrequent and taxonomically restricted. In this feld study, I examined the importance of both heterospecifc and conspecifc neighbours in a biparental fsh, the convict cichlid, Amatitlania siquia. This was done by assessing the colonisa- tion rates of vacant territories, the rates of aggression by the territory holders, and the overall rates of aggression towards intruders, in treatments that controlled the proximity of both neighbour types. Convict cichlid pairs colonised vacant nesting resources (territory locations) at similar rates independent of the proximity of heterospecifc (moga, Hypsophrys nicaraguensis) or conspecifc neighbours. However, a model of sympatric cichlid intruder was subjected to considerably higher overall levels of aggression when mogas were nearby. In contrast, the proximity of conspecifcs did not have a signifcant efect on the overall aggression towards the intruder. These results suggest that previously demonstrated higher survival of convict cichlid broods in close proximity of mogas may be driven by aggression towards shared enemies. No conclusive evidence was found regarding whether mogas also infuence convict cichlids’ investment into anti-intruder aggression: the results show a marginally non-signifcant trend, and a moderately large efect size, to the direction of a lower investment in mogas’, but not conspecifcs’, proximity.

Pink Convict Cichlid ( Amatitlania Nigrofasciata ) Variety Sht
Pink Convict Cichlid ( Amatitlania nigrofasciata ) Variety Order: Perciformes - Family: Cichlidae - Subfamily: Cichlasomatinae Type: Tropical; Central American Cichlid Also known as: Zebra Cichlid Origin: The type species, A. nigrofasciata, which used to cover all these species, is restricted to the northern population ranging from El Salvador to Guatemala on the Pacific coast and from Honduras to Guatemala on the Atlantic coast. Overview: Convict cichlids are endemic to the lakes and streams of Central America. In particular, the species occurs along the eastern coast of Central America from Guatemala to Costa Rica, and on the western coast from Honduras to Panama. Convict cichlids prefer moving water, and are most frequently found in habitats with cover in the form of rocks or sunken branches. Convict cichlids are relatively tolerant of cool water, an ability which has allowed the species to colonize volcanic lakes at elevations of 1,500 meters (4,900 ft). At four natural habitats of the convict cichlid in Costa Rica. Description: The Pink Convict Cichlid (Amatitlania nigrofasciata) is a pseudo-albino of the Archocentrus nigrofasciatus Convict Cichlid. Sometimes called Zebra Cichlid or Convict Cichlid, this fish is monotone in color, with the female having an orange patch on her stomach. The male is larger, monotone, has a steeper forehead and longer fins. As it ages, the male will acquire a fatty lump on the forehead. A striking addition to any aquarium, they are not recommended for the community tank due to their aggressive tendencies. Physical Characteristics: The wild-type of the species has 8–9 black vertical bars on a blue-grey body, along with a dark blotch on the operculum.

Courtship in the Monogamous Convict Cichlid; What Are Individuals Saying to Rejected and Selected Mates?
ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, 2005, 69, 143–149 doi:10.1016/j.anbehav.2004.02.020 Courtship in the monogamous convict cichlid; what are individuals saying to rejected and selected mates? NICK SANTANGELO Biological Sciences, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, U.S.A. (Received 22 January 2003; initial acceptance 20 June 2003; final acceptance 11 February 2004; published online 11 November 2004; MS. number: A9528R) I examined the relation between courtship and mate choice in convict cichlids by presenting females with the option of courting and spawning with one of two males that were isolated from each other. I quantified the amount of courtship performed by females towards males they selected as mates and males they rejected, and the amount of courtship performed by each male towards the female. I measured courtship using two rates: (1) daily courtship rate, the total number of courtship events per number of days until spawning; and (2) contact courtship rate, the total number of courtship events per day per total time spent with a given individual. Females showed similar contact courtship rates to each male, whereas both types of courtship rates between females and only rejected males were significantly and positively correlated. Females showed a nonsignificant tendency to select larger males. Females spent significantly more time with the males they selected and therefore females’ daily courtship rate towards selected males was significantly higher than that towards rejected males. Although females showed a preference early in their search for the male they eventually selected, they continued to spend time with, and court, the rejected male until spawning with the selected male, indicating that females continuously assess males throughout their search.

Archocentrus Nigrofasciatus) in California
Spring 2012 125 California Fish and Game 98(2):125-128; 2012 First record of an established population of the convict cichlid (Archocentrus nigrofasciatus) in California TIM E. HOVEY* AND CAMM C. SWIFT California Department of Fish and Game, 21729 Canyon Heights Circle, Santa Clarita, CA 91390, USA (TEH) Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (Emeritus), 6465 Elmo Road, Cumming, GA 30028 (CCS) * Correspondent: [email protected] Key words: Archocentrus nigrofasciatus, California, convict cichlid, exotic species, invasive species ____________________________________________________________ In June of 2007 a large population of convict cichlid (Archocentrus nigrofasciatus) was discovered in the Bouquet Canyon Water District outflow into the Santa Clara River, Los Angeles County, California. This population extended from the mouth of the outflow, just below the Bouquet Canyon bridge (34° 27’ 39.2” N, 118° 30’ 53.3” W) to approximately 800 m downstream (34° 25’ 22.1” N, 118° 33’ 29.5” W) where the flow becomes subsurface. Surveys conducted after the discovery revealed abundant cichlids of all size classes (25-144 mm TL), indicating a reproducing population. While there have been reports of A. nigrofasciatus occupying warm-water effluent in other states (Fuller et al. 1999, as Cichlasoma nigrofasciatum), to the best of our knowledge this is the first documented presence of that species within California (Dill, et al. 1997). Anecdotal observations by others (Thomas Haglund [2007] and Dan Duncan [2007], City of Santa Clarita, personal communications) suggest this population may have been present for several years. The convict cichlid (Figure 1) is a member of the Cichlidae family and is native to Central America, along the eastern coast from Guatemala to Costa Rica and along the western coast from Honduras to Panama.
