NDAHIGEZE FINNISH INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Bujumbura, April 1995 The conclusions and recommendations given in this and other reports in the Research for the Management of the Fisheries on the Lake Tanganyika Project series are those considered appropriate at the time of preparation. They may be modified in the light of further knowledge gained at subsequent stages of the Project. The designations employed and the presentation of material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion on the part of FAO or FINNIDA concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area, or concerning the determination of its frontiers or boundaries. PREFACE The Research for the Management of the Fisheries on Lake Tanganyika Project (Lake Tanganyika Research) became fully operational in January 1992. It is executed by the Food and Agriculture organization of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by the Finnish International Development Agency (FINNIDA) and the Arab Gulf Programme for United Nations Development Organizations(AGFUND). This project aims at the determination of the biological basis for fish production on Lake Tanganyika, in order to permit the formulation of a coherent lake—wide fisheries management policy for the four riparian States (Burundi, Tanzania, Zaïre and Zambia). Particular attention will be also given to the reinforcement of the skills and physical facilities of the fisheries research units in all four beneficiary countries as well as to the build- up of effective coordination mechanisms to ensure full collaboration between the Governments concerned.

INTRODUCTION The present catalogue is the updated version of the earlier ones i.e. LTR Technical Document No. 3 and LTR Field Manual No. 11 and thus lists all documents acquired by the LTR until the end of April 1995. While our Documentation Centre's collection focuses mainly on Lake Tanganyika fisheries, it also has a substantial literature on other African lakes, notably Lakes Kivu, Victoria, Eduard, George, Kariba and Malawi/Nyasa as well as on other subjects. FAO serial issues and documentation are well represented. Further, the publications of the LTR are included; they are issued in two series i.e. Technical Documents and Field Guides and Manuals. All the issues of the LTR Newsletter are also included; our Newsletter is produced quarterly and widely distributed. In all, over 700 titles were added to the last catalogue. Each of the document entries in the catalogue contains, in addition to normal bibliographic information, the class notation by which the document can be located in the DC. All documents, excluding the FAO serial issues, have been classified using a classification adapted from ASFIS (Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System) Subject Categories. The classification is presented in Annex I. Class 144 for African lakes has been subdivided to accomodate the geographical expansion of the initial collection. A map showing the relevant lakes and basins is presented in Annex II. Lastly, we take this opportunity to thank to many colleagues, friends and, particularly, to Ms. J. Collins, librarian of FAO's Fisheries Branch Library, for their continuing donations. Thanks to them our Documentation Centre is continue to grow. GCP/RAF/271/FIN-FM/16 (En & Fr) vi 1. INTRODUCTION Le présent catalogue est une version actualisée des anciens catalogues c.-à-d. le Document Technique No 03 et le Manuel et Guides de Terrain No 11 et ainsi présente tous les documents acquis par RLT jusqu'en Avril 1995. Notre Centre de Documentation contient non seulement des documents relatifs au lac Tanganyika, mais aussi ceux portant sur d'autres lacs africains notamment les lac Kivu, Victoria, Eduard, Georges, Kariba et Malawi/Nyasa ainsi que sur d'autres sujets variés. Les publications de la FAO font également une bonne partie de l'effectif total des documents de notre Centre de Documentation. Les publications de RLT en constituent une autre et se subdivisent en deux séries dont les Documents Techniques et les Manuels et Guides de Terrain. Ce Centre de Documentation contient aussi des Bulletins de RLT publiés trimestriellement et largement distribués par le projet. Dans l'ensemble, plus de 700 titres ont été ajoutés au catalogue précedent. Chacun des documents entrant dans le catalogue contient, en plus des informations bibliographiques, la notification de classe qui permet la localisation des documents dans le Centre de Documentation (D.C.) Tous les documents, sauf les publications de la FAO, sont classés suivant les catégories de sujets conformes à la méthode de classification d'ASFIS (Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System). La classe 144 qui porte sur les lacs africains a été subdivisée afin de permettre l'expansion géographique de la première collection. Une carte des lacs et bassins est présentée en Annexe II. Enfin nous profitons de cette occasion pour remercier nos collègues et amis et plus particulièrement Mlle J. Collins, bibliothècaire du Département des Pêches de la FAO pour leur dons continuels. Grâce à eux notre centre de documentation continue de s'aggrandir. GCP/RAF/271/FIN-FM/16 (En & Fr) vii LTR/DC ACQUISITIONS 1999 1. Aarnik, B.H.M., Kapasa, L.K. & Zwieten, P.A.M. van.

  • Female Social Dominance Does Not Establish Mating Priority in Nile Tilapia
    Revista de Etologia 2004, Vol.6, N°1,Social 33-37 dominance and mating in the Nile tilapia Female Social Dominance does not Establish Mating Priority in Nile Tilapia ELIANE GONÇALVES-DE-FREITAS AND ALINE CHIMELLO FERREIRA Universidade Estadual Paulista, São José do Rio Preto Female dominance and size are important features for mating choices in fishes. As dominants are also the largest females in some species, we tested whether dominance per se favours mating priority in Nile tilapia females. Three matched-size adult females (n = 13) were grouped in a 140 l-aquarium during 3 days for hierarchical settlement. On the 4th day a male larger than the females was introduced in the group and kept there for 12 consecutive days until reproduction. Spawning occurred in 8 out of 13 replicates, and the alpha female was the first to mate in only 50% of the cases. Males may thus choose females according to size and not according to rank, as occurs in other cichlid species. As confrontations and the establishment of hierarchical dominance involve high energetic expenditure in Nile tilapias, the reason why females invest in such behaviors is still a question to be elucidated. Index terms: Reproductive behavior. Mate choice. Nile tilapias. Oreochromis niloticus. A dominância social da fêmea não promove prioridade de acasalamento em fêmeas de tilápia-do-Nilo. A dominância e o tamanho da fêmea são características importantes para a escolha do parceiro sexual em peixes. Como as fêmeas dominantes também são as maiores em várias espécies, procuramos verificar se a dominância em si promove a prioridade de acasalamento em fêmeas de tilápia-do-Nilo.

We investigatedbody shape variation, quanti ed usinglandmark-based geometric morphometrics, among cichlidspecies belonging to algaland zooplankton feeders coexisting along the rocky shores of Lake Malawi,in order to elucidate the adaptive signi cance of body shape. Signi cant differences were foundwithin zooplankton feeders in which Copadichromisborleyi hada shortergape, smaller eyes andshorter caudal peduncle relative to Ctenopharynxpictus and,within algal feeders, Labeotropheus fuelleborni hada shorterand inferior subterminal gape, and shorter head relative to Petrotilapiagena- lutea.Variationamong species is discussedwith reference to trophicand feeding microhabitat differ- entiationwhich enables us to appreciate the role

    Heredity 80 (1998) 702–714 Received 3 June 1997 Phylogeny of African cichlid fishes as revealed by molecular markers WERNER E. MAYER*, HERBERT TICHY & JAN KLEIN Max-Planck-Institut f¨ur Biologie, Abteilung Immungenetik, Corrensstr. 42, D-72076 T¨ubingen, Germany The species flocks of cichlid fish in the three great East African Lakes, Victoria, Malawi, and Tanganyika, have arisen in each lake by explosive adaptive radiation. Various questions concerning their phylogeny have not yet been answered. In particular, the identity of the ancestral founder species and the monophyletic origin of the haplochromine cichlids from the East African lakes have not been established conclusively. In the present study, we used the anonymous nuclear DNA marker DXTU1 as a step towards answering these questions. A 280 bp-fragment of the DXTU1 locus was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction from East African lacustrine species, the East African riverine cichlid species Haplochromis bloyeti, H. burtoni and H. sparsidens, and other African cichlids. Sequencing revealed several indels and substitutions that were used as cladistically informative markers to support a phylogenetic tree constructed by the neighbor-joining method. The topology, although not supported by high bootstrap values, corresponds well to the geographical distribution and previous classifica- tion of the cichlids. Markers could be defined that: (i) differentiate East African from West African cichlids; (ii) distinguish the riverine and Lake Victoria/Malawi haplochromines from Lake Tanganyika cichlids; and (iii) indicate the existence of a monophyletic Lake Victoria cichlid superflock which includes haplochromines from satellite lakes and East African rivers. In order to resolve further the relationship of East African riverine and lacustrine species, mtDNA cytochrome b and control region segments were sequenced.
