Effect of Social Rank on Gut Microbes and Their Metabolites of Greater Long‐Tailed Hamsters (Tscherskia triton)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Social rank in greater long‐tailed hamsters (Tscherskia triton) shapes gut microbiota composition and metabolite profiles. Dominant males exhibit a “high‐vigilance, metabolically activated” phenotype, with elevated aggression and specific gut microbiota enriched in energy‐harvesting taxa and fecal queuine.

Genetic Diversity of the Cichlid Andinoacara latifrons (Steindachner, 1878) as a Conservation Strategy in Different Colombian Basins

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Cichlids constitute a diverse monophyletic group that have developed adaptive strategies to thrive in diverse environments. Andinoacara represents an example of diversification on the South American Andean uplift, providing a key model for understanding ...

Can Food Acquisition Priority Alter Emotion, Physiological Responses, and Social Rank in Fish?

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We tested whether a cichlid fish perceives inequitable food distribution by manipulating feeding order. Priority‐fed individuals consumed more, had higher condition factors, and exhibited lower whole‐body cortisol than delayed‐fed fish, while personality, metabolism, dopamine, and social rank did not differ.

Evolution: Cichlid Models on the Runaway to Speciation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Rapid speciation has fascinated biologists for a long time. A recent study shows that ecological opportunity and sex-biased color differences increase the likelihood of speciation in African cichlid fishes.

Gut Microbiome Functional Reprogramming Reflects Divergent Social Strategies in a Wild Primate

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Wild golden snub‐nosed monkeys employ divergent social strategies, forming reproductive one‐male units and bachelor all‐male units. We reveal that these social structures, intertwined with seasonal diets, drive distinct functional reprogramming in their gut microbiomes. This adaptive microbial plasticity plays a crucial role in primate socio‐ecological

Rapid generation of ecologically relevant behavioral novelty in experimental cichlid hybrids

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The East African cichlid radiations are characterized by repeated and rapid diversification into many distinct species with different ecological specializations and by a history of hybridization events between nonsister species.

AI‐Assisted Morphometric Analysis and Molecular Phylogeny for a Dactylogyrid (Monopisthocotyla) Skin Parasite of an Ornamental Crenuchid Fish From Brazil

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a formal description and taxonomic appraisal of Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n., a Neotropical parasite belonging to the family Dactylogyridae, integrating AI‐assisted morphometric analyses, molecular data, and phylogenetic reconstruction. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n.

On the occurrence of three non-native cichlid species including the first record of a feral population of Pelmatolapia (Tilapia) mariae (Boulenger, 1899) in Europe [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Thermally influenced freshwater systems provide suitable conditions for non-native species of tropical and subtropical origin to survive and form proliferating populations beyond their native ranges.
