ABSTRACT Aim Lacustrine systems generally exhibit greater habitat stability than riverine systems, yet some lakes have experienced substantial lake‐level fluctuations throughout the Pleistocene. These environmental perturbations repeatedly altered habitat availability critical to the evolution of their diverse fish communities.

Seasons and seasonality in lakes: A synthesis amid global change
Abstract Seasonality in environmental conditions plays a fundamental role in shaping lake ecosystems. However, patterns of seasonality vary worldwide, and these patterns are shifting over time amid global change. Thus, it is increasingly important to evaluate how seasons and seasonality are represented in lake ecosystem research.

In spite of the global barcoding effort, there is still a lack of genetic data on African freshwater fishes. We aimed to contribute to bridging this gap by providing molecular data on commercially important catfish species from the north-western part of ...
