Potential mechanism of sound production in Oreochromis niloticus(Cichlidae) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2009
SUMMARY Although acoustic communication is an integral part of cichlid behaviour,its mechanism has never been identified before. In the present study, a combination of approaches was used to investigate the sound-producing mechanism of Oreochromis niloticus. Synchronisation of high-speed video data (500 frames s–1) and cineradiographies (

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 1687-1700, June 2026.
Abstract A new species of pearl cichlid of the ‘Geophagus’ brasiliensis species group, endemic to the Piranga River, a major tributary of the upper Doce River basin in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil, is herein described. The new species is delimited using an integrative approach, with molecular‐based species delimitation methods coupled
