Neolamprologus Longicaudatus, a New Cichlid Fish from the Zairean Coast of Lake Tanganyika

Although similar to N. furcifer, N. christyi and N. buescheri in having an elongate body, strongly emarginate caudal fin, and vertical fins partly covered with scales, this species is distinguishable from them by its small orbit, light grayish-brown coloration of body, dorsal fin lacking a submarginal dark band, 37 longitudinal body scales, 8 gill rakers on lower limb of the 1st gill arch, and a long pointed snout. Neolamprologus is a genus of the family Cichlidae Neolamprologus longicaudatus sp. nov. in Lake Tanganyika, one of the Great Rift Valley (Figs. 1, 2) lakes in the central east Africa. Lake Tanganyika is famous for its remarkable endemism seen in the Neolamprologussp. "Kavalla" Konings and Dieckhof ,f cichlid fishes, and the genus Neolamprologus is also 1992:150, fig. (Milima Island, Zair e) . endemic to the lake. Neolamprologus is the largest Holotype. HUMZ (Laboratory of Marine Zoolog y , genus among Lake Tanganyikan cichlids, and 42 Faculty of Fisheries, Hokkaido University) 12767 0 , species are presently known from the lake (Biischer, 85.5mm in standard length (SL), Cape Banza, Ubwar i 1991, 1992a, 1992b, 1993; Marechal and Poll, 1991). -
And Giant Guitarfish (Rhynchobatus Djiddensis)
VIRAL DISCOVERY IN BLUEGILL SUNFISH (LEPOMIS MACROCHIRUS) AND GIANT GUITARFISH (RHYNCHOBATUS DJIDDENSIS) BY HISTOPATHOLOGY EVALUATION, METAGENOMIC ANALYSIS AND NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING by JENNIFER ANNE DILL (Under the Direction of Alvin Camus) ABSTRACT The rapid growth of aquaculture production and international trade in live fish has led to the emergence of many new diseases. The introduction of novel disease agents can result in significant economic losses, as well as threats to vulnerable wild fish populations. Losses are often exacerbated by a lack of agent identification, delay in the development of diagnostic tools and poor knowledge of host range and susceptibility. Examples in bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) and the giant guitarfish (Rhynchobatus djiddensis) will be discussed here. Bluegill are popular freshwater game fish, native to eastern North America, living in shallow lakes, ponds, and slow moving waterways. Bluegill experiencing epizootics of proliferative lip and skin lesions, characterized by epidermal hyperplasia, papillomas, and rarely squamous cell carcinoma, were investigated in two isolated poopulations. Next generation genomic sequencing revealed partial DNA sequences of an endogenous retrovirus and the entire circular genome of a novel hepadnavirus. Giant Guitarfish, a rajiform elasmobranch listed as ‘vulnerable’ on the IUCN Red List, are found in the tropical Western Indian Ocean. Proliferative skin lesions were observed on the ventrum and caudal fin of a juvenile male quarantined at a public aquarium following international shipment. Histologically, lesions consisted of papillomatous epidermal hyperplasia with myriad large, amphophilic, intranuclear inclusions. Deep sequencing and metagenomic analysis produced the complete genomes of two novel DNA viruses, a typical polyomavirus and a second unclassified virus with a 20 kb genome tentatively named Colossomavirus. -

L.C. Beadle (1974). A male Lamprologus ocel/alus displaying at a heterospecific intruder. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The field work for this study was conducted part time whilst gworking for Chris and Jeane Blignaut, Cape Kachese Fisheries, Zambia. I am indebted to them for allowing me time off from work, fuel, boats, diving staff and equipment and their friendship through out this period. This study could not have been occured without their support. I also thank all the members of Cape Kachese Fisheries who helped with field work, in particular: Lackson Kachali, Hanold Musonda, Evans Chingambo, Luka Musonda, Whichway Mazimba, Rogers Mazimba and Mathew Chama. Chris and Jeane Blignaut provided funds for travel to South Africa and partially supported my work in Grahamstown. The permit for fish collection was granted by the Director of Fisheries, Mr. H.D.Mudenda. Many discussions were held with Mr. Martin Pearce, then the Chief Fisheries Officer at Mpulungu, my thanks to them both. The staff of the JLB Smith Institute and DIFS (Rhodes University) are thanked for help in many fields: Ms. Daksha Naran helped with computing and organisation of many tables and graphs; Mrs. S.E.

Mitochondrial ND2 Phylogeny of Tilapiines and the Evolution of Parental Care Systems in the African Cichlid Fishes
What, if Anything, is a Tilapia?ÐMitochondrial ND2 Phylogeny of Tilapiines and the Evolution of Parental Care Systems in the African Cichlid Fishes Vera Klett and Axel Meyer Department of Biology, University of Konstanz, Germany We estimated a novel phylogeny of tilapiine cichlid ®sh (an assemblage endemic to Africa and the Near East) within the African cichlid ®shes on the basis of complete mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2) gene sequences. The ND2 (1,047 bp) gene was sequenced in 39 tilapiine cichlids (38 species and 1 subspecies) and in an additional 14 nontilapiine cichlid species in order to evaluate the traditional morphologically based hypothesis of the respective monophyly of the tilapiine and haplochromine cichlid ®sh assemblages. The analyses included many additional cichlid lineages, not only the so-called tilapiines, but also lineages from Lake Tanganyika, east Africa, the Neotropics and an out-group from Madagascar with a wide range of parental care and mating systems. Our results suggest, in contrast to the historical morphology-based hypotheses from Regan (1920, 1922), Trewavas (1983), and Stiassny (1991), that the tilapiines do not form a monophyletic group because there is strong evidence that the genus Tilapia is not monophyletic but divided into at least ®ve distinct groups. In contrast to this ®nding, an allozyme analysis of Pouyaud and AgneÁse (1995), largely based on the same samples as used here, found a clustering of the Tilapia species into only two groups. This discrepancy is likely caused by the difference in resolution power of the two marker systems used. Our data suggest that only type species Tilapia sparrmanii Smith (1840) should retain the genus name Tilapia. -
