Phylogeny and age of chromidotilapiine cichlids (Teleostei: Cichlidae)

Hydrobiologia, 2014
Chromidotilapiine cichlid fishes (Teleostei:Cichlidae) of West and Central Africa represent themost species rich ancient African cichlid lineage. Incontrast to the mega-diverse haplotilapiine cichlidsfrom the African rift valley and crater lakes, very little isknown about their phylogenetic history.

Cytotaxonomy of 41 Species of Neotropical Cichlidae

Copeia, 1979
Chromosome morphology for 40 species and diploid counts for 41 species of neotropical Cichlidae were prepared using colchicine treated gill epithelial squashes. Gross chromosomal evolution among this group appears to have been somewhat conservative with the majority of the species retaining the putative ancestral diploid number of 48.

The cost of parental care inHaplochromis ‘argens’ (Cichlidae)

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1994
The cost of parental care in the maternal, mouthbrooding cichlid,Haplochromis ‘argens’ was measured in terms of parental survival, fecundity and breeding frequency. In comparison with non-parental females, those that mouthbrooded eggs for a period of 16 days took 33 % longer to respawn. Parental females also grew more slowly between spawnings, and this

The Reproductive Behaviour of Aequidens paraguayensis (Pisces, Cichlidae)

Zeitschrift für Tierpsychologie, 1975
AbstractThe reproductive behaviour of aquarium‐held Aequidens paraguayensis is described, with emphasis on a quantitative comparison of male‐female parental roles. It is a biparental species. Eggs, laid on leaf litter, are guarded and aerated for about 32 hours (25–27° C) and newly‐hatched young are orally brooded for several days. Both sexes performed

Adaptations to feeding in herbivorous fish (Cyprinidae and Cichlidae).

2005
AbstractThis chapter describes the anatomical and behavioural adaptations of herbivorous cyprinids and cichlids for feeding on plants, including phytoplankton, algae, periphyton, macrophytes, seeds and detritus.

Karyotypes of six species of African Cichlidae (Pisces: Perciformes)

Experientia, 1981
Diploid numbers of 40–46 were found among the 6 species of African Cichlidae included in this karyotypic study. More species must be studies before any generalized conclusions regarding correlations between karyotypic morphology and phylogeny can be made.

The fossil record and biogeography of the Cichlidae (Actinopterygii: Labroidei)

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2001
The family Cichlidae is a large group of tropical fishes in the order Perciformes, with an estimated number of living species exceeding 1400. The modern distribution of the family Cichlidae is predominantly in fresh waters of Central and South America, Africa, Madagascar, India and the Middle East, with fossil members known from Africa, Saudi Arabia ...
