Simple Summary: Paradise fish (Macropodus opercularis) has been a favored subject of behavioral research during the last decades of the 20th century. Lately, however, with a massively expanding genetic toolkit and a well annotated, fully sequenced genome, zebrafish (Danio rerio) became a central model of recent behavioral research. But, as the zebrafish behavioral repertoire is less complex than that of the paradise fish, the focus on zebrafish is a compromise. With the advent of novel methodologies, we think it is time to bring back paradise fish and develop it into a modern model of Citation: Rácz, A.; Adorján, G.; behavioral and evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) studies. The first step is to define the Fodor, E.; Sellyei, B.; Tolba, M.; housing and husbandry conditions that can make a paradise fish a relevant and trustworthy model.

    Celestial Pearl Danio", a New Genus and Species of Colourful Minute Cyprinid Fish from Myanmar (Pisces: Cypriniformes)

    THE RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2007 55(1): 131-140 Date of Publication: 28 Feb.2007 © National University of Singapore THE "CELESTIAL PEARL DANIO", A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF COLOURFUL MINUTE CYPRINID FISH FROM MYANMAR (PISCES: CYPRINIFORMES) Tyson R. Roberts Research Associate, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. - Celestichthys margaritatus, a new genus and species of Danioinae, is described from a rapidly developing locality in the Salween basin about 70-80 km northeast of Inle Lake in northern Myanmar. Males and females are strikingly colouful. It is apparently most closely related to two danioins endemic to Inle, Microrasbora rubescens and "Microrasbora" erythromicron. The latter species may be congeneric with the new species. The new genus is identified as a danioin by specializations on its lower jaw and its numerous anal fin rays. The colouration, while highly distinctive, seems also to be characteristically danioin. The danioin notch (Roberts, 1986; Fang, 2003) is reduced or absent, but the danioin mandibular flap and bony knob (defined herein) are present. The anal fin has iiiSVz-lOV: rays. In addition to its distinctive body spots and barred fins the new fish is distinguished from other species of danioins by the following combination of characters: snout and mouth extremely short; premaxillary with an elongate and very slender ascending process; mandible foreshortened; body deep, with rounded dorsal and anal fins; modal vertebral count 15+16=31; caudal fin moderately rather than deeply forked; principal caudal fin rays 9/8; scales vertically ovoid; and pharyngeal teeth conical, in three rows KEY WORDS. - Hopong; principal caudal fin rays; danioin mandibular notch, knob, and pad; captive breeding.

Tyers, [email protected] 9 10 Abstract 11 Balancing selection is important for the maintenance of polymorphism as it can prevent either fixation of one 12 morph through directional selection or genetic drift, or speciation by disruptive selection. Polychromatism can 13 be maintained if the fitness of alternative morphs depends on the relative frequency in a population. In 14 aggressive species, negative frequency-dependent antagonism can prevent an increase in the frequency of rare 15 morphs as they would only benefit from increased fitness while they are rare. Heterospecific aggression is 16 common in nature and has the potential to contribute to rare morph advantage. Here we carry out field 17 observations and laboratory aggression experiments with mbuna cichlids from Lake Malawi, to investigate the 18 role of con- and heterospecific aggression in the maintenance of polychromatism and identify benefits to rare 19 mores which are likely to result from reduced aggression.

Available: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Maylandia_lombardoi.jpg. (July 2018). 1 Native Range and Status in the United States Native Range From Kasembe (2017): “Endemic to Lake Malawi. Occurs at Mbenji Island and Nkhomo reef [Malawi].” From Froese and Pauly (2018): “Africa: Endemic to Mbenji Island, Lake Malawi [Malawi].” 1 Status in the United States This species has not been reported as introduced or established in the United States. This species is in trade in the United States. From Imperial Tropicals (2018): “Kenyi Cichlid (Pseudotropheus lombardoi) […] $ 7.99 […] UNSEXED 1” FISH” Means of Introductions in the United States This species has not been reported as introduced or established in the United States. Remarks There is taxonomic uncertainty concerning Maylandia lombardoi. Because it has recently been grouped in the genera Metriaclima and Pseudotropheus, these names were also used when searching for information in preparation of this assessment. From Kasembe (2017): “This species previously appeared on the IUCN Red List in the genus Maylandia but is now considered valid in the genus Metriaclima (Konings 2016, Stauffer et al. 2016).” From Seriously Fish (2018): “There is ongoing debate as to the true genus of this species, it having been variously grouped in both Maylandia and Metriaclima, as well as the currently valid Pseudotropheus.
