Endemic diversification of the monophyletic cottoid fish species flock in Lake Baikal explored with mtDNA sequencing.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Apr 2003

Kontula Tytti, Kirilchik Sergei V, Väinölä Risto

Abstract excerpt

In the ancient Lake Baikal in East Siberia, cottoid fishes have diversified into an endemic flock of 33 species. From an ancestral shallow-water, benthic life-style, Baikalian cottoids have shifted to deep-water life in environments even below 1500 m, and also colonized the pelagic habitat. We ex...
