Open AccessStable species boundaries despite ten million years of hybridization in tropical eels
Genomic evidence is increasingly underpinning that hybridization between taxa is commonplace, challenging our views on the mechanisms that maintain their boundaries. Here, we focus on seven catadromous eel spe...

Assortative mating preferences between colour morphs of the endemic Lake Tanganyika cichlid genus Tropheus
Female mate preferences effectuate reproductive isolation among and sexual selection within species. Both mechanisms have been associated with the diversification and speciation of cichlid species flocks of th...

Open AccessNuclear and mitochondrial data reveal different evolutionary processes in the Lake Tanganyika cichlid genus Tropheus
Cichlid fishes are notorious for their wealth of intra- and interspecific colour pattern diversity. In Lake Tanganyika, the endemic genus Tropheus represents the most impressive example for geographic variation i...

Open AccessReticulate phylogeny of gastropod-shell-breeding cichlids from Lake Tanganyika – the result of repeated introgressive hybridization
The tribe Lamprologini is the major substrate breeding lineage of Lake Tanganyika's cichlid species flock. Among several different life history strategies found in lamprologines, the adaptation to live and bre...
