A Guide to the Parasites of African Freshwater Fishes
A Guide to the Parasites of African Freshwater Fishes Edited by T. Scholz, M.P.M. Vanhove, N. Smit, Z. Jayasundera & M. Gelnar Volume 18 (2018) Chapter 2.1. FISH DIVERSITY AND ECOLOGY Martin REICHARD Diversity of fshes in Africa Fishes are the most taxonomically diverse group of vertebrates and Africa shares a large portion of this diversity. This is due to its rich geological history – being a part of Gondwana, it shares taxa with the Neotropical region, whereas recent close geographical affnity to Eurasia permitted faunal exchange with European and Asian taxa. At the same time, relative isolation and the complex climatic and geological history of Africa enabled major diversifcation within the continent. The taxonomic diversity of African freshwater fshes is associated with functional and ecological diversity. While freshwater habitats form a tiny fraction of the total surface of aquatic habitats compared with the marine environment, most teleost fsh diversity occurs in fresh waters. There are over 3,200 freshwater fsh species in Africa and it is likely several hundreds of species remain undescribed (Snoeks et al. 2011). This high diversity and endemism is likely mirrored in diversity and endemism of their parasites. African fsh diversity includes an ancient group of air-breathing lungfshes (Protopterus spp.). Other taxa are capable of breathing air and tolerate poor water quality, including several clariid catfshes (e.g., Clarias spp.; Fig. 2.1.1D) and anabantids (Ctenopoma spp.). Africa is also home to several bichir species (Polypterus spp.; Fig. 2.1.1A), an ancient fsh group endemic to Africa, and bonytongue Heterotis niloticus (Cuvier, 1829) (Osteoglossidae), a basal actinopterygian fsh.

GREENWOOD Fons Nilus'" East African Fisheries Research Organization ~xplorersof' . ;ton, Fresh_ CHAPTER I I\.bruzzi,Dr: knowledge : INTRODUCTION ~ss to it, the ,THE fishes of Uganda have been subject to considerable study. Apart from .h to take it many purely descriptive studies of the fishes themselves, three reports have . been published which deal with the ecology of the lakes in relation to fish and , fisheries (Worthington (1929a, 1932b): Graham (1929)).Much of the literature is scattered in various scientific journals, dating back to the early part of the ; century and is difficult to obtain iIi Uganda. The more recent reports also are out of print and virtually unobtainable. The purpose .of this present survey is to bring together the results of these many researches and to present, in the light of recent unpublished information, an account of the taxonomy and biology of the many fish species which are to be found in the lakes and rivers of Uganda. Particular attention has been paid to the provision of keys, so that most of the fishesmay be easily identified. It is hardly necessary to emphasize that our knowledge of the East African freshwater fishes is still in an early and exploratory stage of development. Much that has been written is known to be over-generalized, as conclusions were inevitably drawn from few and scattered observations or specimens. From the outset it must be stressed that the sections of this paper dealing with the classification and description of the fishes are in no sense a full tax- onomicrevision although many of the descriptions are based on larger samples than were previously available.

Out of Lake Tanganyika: Endemic Lake Fishes Inhabit Rapids of the Lukuga River
355 Ichthyol. Explor. Freshwaters, Vol. 22, No. 4, pp. 355-376, 5 figs., 3 tabs., December 2011 © 2011 by Verlag Dr. Friedrich Pfeil, München, Germany – ISSN 0936-9902 Out of Lake Tanganyika: endemic lake fishes inhabit rapids of the Lukuga River Sven O. Kullander* and Tyson R. Roberts** The Lukuga River is a large permanent river intermittently serving as the only effluent of Lake Tanganyika. For at least the first one hundred km its water is almost pure lake water. Seventy-seven species of fish were collected from six localities along the Lukuga River. Species of cichlids, cyprinids, and clupeids otherwise known only from Lake Tanganyika were identified from rapids in the Lukuga River at Niemba, 100 km from the lake, whereas downstream localities represent a Congo River fish fauna. Cichlid species from Niemba include special- ized algal browsers that also occur in the lake (Simochromis babaulti, S. diagramma) and one invertebrate picker representing a new species of a genus (Tanganicodus) otherwise only known from the lake. Other fish species from Niemba include an abundant species of clupeid, Stolothrissa tanganicae, otherwise only known from Lake Tangan- yika that has a pelagic mode of life in the lake. These species demonstrate that their adaptations are not neces- sarily dependent upon the lake habitat. Other endemic taxa occurring at Niemba are known to frequent vegetat- ed shore habitats or river mouths similar to the conditions at the entrance of the Lukuga, viz. Chelaethiops minutus (Cyprinidae), Lates mariae (Latidae), Mastacembelus cunningtoni (Mastacembelidae), Astatotilapia burtoni, Ctenochromis horei, Telmatochromis dhonti, and Tylochromis polylepis (Cichlidae). The Lukuga frequently did not serve as an ef- fluent due to weed masses and sand bars building up at the exit, and low water levels of Lake Tanganyika.

Ipinjolu Department of Forestry and Fisheries, Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Nigeria LengthResearch Full Article [*Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected]: : +2348137844490] ABSTRACT: Study was carried out on Auchenoglanis occidentalis from River Rima, North-Western Nigeria to provide information on gonadosomatic index, fecundity and egg size. Eight hundred samples of the fish (398 females, 399 males and 3 with unidentified sexes were examined between November 2005 and December 2008. GSI, fecundity and diameter of the eggs were analysed. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between GSI, fecundity and egg size with total length (TL), total weight (TW), gonad weight (GW) and gonad maturation stages (MS). Six stages of gonad maturation were established. Mean gonadosomatic index (GSI) for female and males were 2.01±2.75SD and 0.17±0.32SD, respectively. It varied with sex, size class and gonad maturation stage, and exhibited significant (P<0.05) correlation with fish TL, TW and MS in females but not in males. Mean fecundity was 2834.45±2530.87SD and it correlated significantly (P<0.05) with GW, MS and inversely with egg diameter but not with TL and TW. Mean egg size was 1.31±0.33mm. It correlated significantly (P<0.05) with TL, TW and GW but not with MS.
