Cichlid Diversity, Speciation and Systematics: Examples from the Great African Lakes
Cichlid diversity, speciation and systematics: examples from the Great African Lakes Jos Snoeks, Africa Museum, Ichthyology- Cichlid Research Unit, Leuvensesteenweg 13, B-3080 Ter vuren,.Belgium. Tel: (32) 2 769 56 28, Fax: (32) 2 769 56 42(e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT The cichlid faunas of the large East African lakes pro vide many fascina ting research tapies. They are unique because of the large number of species involved and the ir exceptional degree ofendemicity. In addition, certain taxa exhibit a substantial degree of intra~lacustrine endemism. These features al one make the Great African Lakes the largest centers of biodiversity in the vertebrate world. The numbers of cichlid species in these lakes are considered from different angles. A review is given of the data available on the tempo of their speciation, and sorne of the biological implications of its explosive character are discussed. The confusion in the definition of many genera is illustrated and the current methodology of phylogenetic research briefly commented upon. Theresults of the systematic research within the SADC/GEFLake Malawi/NyasaBiodiversity Conservation Project are discussed. It is argued that systematic research on the East African lake cichlids is entering an era of lesser chaos but increasing complexity. INTRODUCTION The main value of the cichlids of the Great African Grea ter awareness of the scientific and economi Lakes is their economie importance as a readily cal value of these fishes has led to the establishment accessible source of protein for the riparian people. In of varioüs recent research projects such as the three addition, these fishes are important to the specialized GEF (Global Environmental Facility) projects on the aquarium trade as one of the more exci ting fish groups larger lakes (Victoria, Tanganyika, Malawi/Nyasa).

Two crude proteins (38%CP and 56%CP) and two crude lipids (9%CL and 16%CL) rates were applied to four formulated diets: R1 (38%CP:16%CL), R2 (38%CP:9%CL), R3 (56%CP:16%CL) and R4 (56%CP:9%CL). The SR was 100% in H. ahli while that of P. socolofi ranged from 66.6% to 93.3% in the two groups, respectively. The highest WG and SGR were seen in the H. ahli and P. socolofi groups fed with R2 feed. The best FCR values were obtained in R2 groups of H. ahli (1.64) and R groups of P. socolofi (1.41).

Bar, Stripe and Spot Development in Sand-Dwelling Cichlids from Lake Malawi
Hendrick et al. EvoDevo (2019) 10:18 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13227-019-0132-7 EvoDevo RESEARCH Open Access Bar, stripe and spot development in sand-dwelling cichlids from Lake Malawi Laura A. Hendrick1, Grace A. Carter1, Erin H. Hilbrands1, Brian P. Heubel1, Thomas F. Schilling2 and Pierre Le Pabic1* Abstract Background: Melanic patterns such as horizontal stripes, vertical bars and spots are common among teleost fshes and often serve roles in camoufage or mimicry. Extensive research in the zebrafsh model has shown that the devel- opment of horizontal stripes depends on complex cellular interactions between melanophores, xanthophores and iri- dophores. Little is known about the development of horizontal stripes in other teleosts, and even less is known about bar or spot development. Here, we compare chromatophore composition and development of stripes, bars and spots in two cichlid species of sand-dwellers from Lake Malawi—Copadichromis azureus and Dimidiochromis compressiceps. Results: (1) In D. compressiceps, stripes are made of dense melanophores underlaid by xanthophores and overlaid by iridophores. Melanophores and xanthophores are either loose or absent in interstripes, and iridophores are dense. In C. azureus, spots and bars are composed of a chromatophore arrangement similar to that of stripes but are separated by interbars where density of melanophores and xanthophores is only slightly lower than in stripes and iridophore density appears slightly greater. (2) Stripe, bar and spot chromatophores appear in the skin at metamorphosis. Stripe melanophores directly diferentiate along horizontal myosepta into the adult pattern. In contrast, bar number and position are dynamic throughout development. As body length increases, new bars appear between old ones or by splitting of old ones through new melanophore appearance, not migration.

Personality, Habitat Selection and Territoriality Kathleen Church A
Habitat Complexity and Behaviour: Personality, Habitat Selection and Territoriality Kathleen Church A Thesis In the Department of Biology Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Biology) at Concordia University Montréal, Québec, Canada July 2018 © Kathleen Church, 2018 iii Abstract Habitat complexity and behaviour: personality, habitat selection and territoriality Kathleen Church, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2018 Structurally complex habitats support high species diversity and promote ecosystem health and stability, however anthropogenic activity is causing natural forms of complexity to rapidly diminish. At the population level, reductions in complexity negatively affect densities of territorial species, as increased visual distance increases the territory size of individuals. Individual behaviour, including aggression, activity and boldness, is also altered by complexity, due to plastic behavioural responses to complexity, habitat selection by particular personality types, or both processes occurring simultaneously. This thesis explores the behavioural effects of habitat complexity in four chapters. The first chapter, a laboratory experiment based on the ideal free distribution, observes how convict cichlids (Amatitlania nigrofasciata) trade-off the higher foraging success obtainable in open habitats with the greater safety provided in complex habitats under overt predation threat. Dominants always preferred the complex habitat, forming ideal despotic distributions, while subordinates altered their habitat use in response to predation. The second chapter also employs the ideal free distribution to assess how convict cichlids within a dominance hierarchy trade-off between food monopolization and safety in the absence of a iv predator. Dominants again formed ideal despotic distributions in the complex habitat, while dominants with lower energetic states more strongly preferred the complex habitat.

Moreover, the genomic organization of U1 snRNA was analyzed using as reference the Oreochromis niloticus genome. The results indicated a high conservation of one chromosomal cluster of U1 snRNA in the African and Asian species with some level of variation mostly in the South American species. The genomic analysis of U1 revealed a distinct scenario of that observed under the cytogenetic mapping. It was observed just an enrichment of U1 gene in the linkage group (LG) 14, that do not correspond to the same chromosome that harbors the U1 cluster identified under the cytogenetic mapping.
