Cichlids: A Host of Opportunities for Evolutionary Parasitology

Trends in Parasitology, 2016
Thanks to high species diversity and a broad range of speciation mechanisms, cichlid fishes represent a textbook model in evolutionary biology. They are also of substantial economic value. Despite this importance, cichlid parasites remain understudied, although some are more diverse than their hosts.

A new species of Gyrodactylus (Monogenea, Gyrodactylidae), an ectoparasite from the endemic Iranocichla hormuzensis (Teleostei, Cichlidae), the only Iranian cichlid

, 2012
Iranocichla hormuzensis occupies a biogeographically peculiar position. This endemic of southern Iran is the only Iranian cichlid. While it is phylogenetically related to African oreochromine members of the cichlid family, it remains unclear how it has ...

Do Coexisting Cryptic Species of Predatory Peacock Bass (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) Partition Their Niche?

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have

Temporal diversification of Central American cichlids

, 2010
Background Cichlid fishes are classic examples of adaptive radiation because of their putative tendency to explosively diversify after invading novel environments.

Dietary utilisation of protein and energy from fresh and ensiled coffee pulp by the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003
Dietary protein and energy utilisation of diets containing fresh and ensiled coffee pulp were studied on 3.2 ± 0.2 g Nile tilapia for 28 days. Diets formulation and feeding were designed on the basis of daily dietary protein and energy allowance.

Vision‐Augmented Wearable Interfaces: Bioinspired Approaches for Realistic AI‐Human‐Machine Interaction

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 12, 18 June 2026.
This review presents recent progress in vision‐augmented wearable interfaces that combine artificial vision, soft wearable sensors, and exoskeletal robots. Inspired by biological visual systems, these technologies enable multimodal perception and intelligent human–machine interaction.

Testing conjectures about morphological diversity in cichlids of Lakes Malawi and Tanganyika

, 2005
The morphological diversity of Malawi and Tanganyika cichlids has often been qualitatively described, but rarely have hypotheses based on these descriptions been tested empirically.

Viral Pathogens Threatening Cage‐Cultured Nile Tilapia in Lake Victoria: Epidemiology, Emerging Risks and Integrated Health Management Strategies

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of cage culture for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Lake Victoria is central to food security and profitable development in East Africa. Nevertheless, viral conditions affect the sustainability of this sector, with significant imbalances in livelihood, trade and aquaculture adaptability.

The Integrated Genomic Architecture and Evolution of Dental Divergence in East African Cichlid Fishes (Haplochromis chilotes x H. nyererei)

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
The independent evolution of the two toothed jaws of cichlid fishes is thought to have promoted their unparalleled ecological divergence and species richness.
