Ten juvenile fishes were transferred from a group aquarium (60 x 60 x 40 cm) containing 15 individuals (without distinguishing sex) to an isolation aquarium (50 x 40 x 40 cm). Aggressiveness was tested by means of attacks on and displays toward the mirror image. The behavior was video-recorded for 10 min at a time on 4 occasions: at 30 min, 1 day, 5 days and 15 days after isolation. The aggressive drive was analyzed in three ways: latency to display agonistic behavior, frequency of attacks and specific attacks toward the mirror image. The latency to attack decreased during isolation, but the frequency of mouth fighting (a high aggressive attack) tended to increase, indicating an augmented aggressive drive. Our findings are congruent with the behavior of the juvenile cichlid, Haplochromis burtoni but differ from the behavior observed in another cichlid, Pterophylum scalare.

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.

As a consequence of escapes and/or intentional releases of O. niloticus from fish farms, there have been the invasion and successful establishment of this exotic fish species in this natural ecosystem, especially in areas of refuge, feeding and reproduction of the native cichlids species. The factors that contributed for this invasion and establishment are discussed here.

E-mail: [email protected] 2African Diving Ltd, P. O. Box 7095, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Lepidiolamprologus kamambae is described from the Kamamba Island off the southeastern coast of Lake Tanganyika. It is similar to L. elongatus, L. kendalli, and L. mimicus in the presence of three horizontal rows of dark blotches along the sides. It differs from those species in the presence of a distinct suborbital stripe across the cheek. It is further distinguished from L. elongatus and L. mimicus by the presence of a marbled pattern on the top of the head, and narrower interorbital width (4.9–5.9% of SL vs. 6.0–7.0%). It is distinguished from L. kendalli by a shorter last dorsal-fin spine (11.2–13.3% of SL vs. 13.3–15.1 %) and presence of distinct dark blotches on the side instead of contiguous blotches forming stripes separated by light interspaces. Lepidiolamprologus profundicola is unique in the genus having the cheeks covered with small scales. Scales are absent from the cheek in L. kamambae, and in the other species scales are either absent or very few and deeply embedded.
