Evolution of a cichlid fish in a Lake Malawi satellite lake.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

Allopatric divergence in peripheral habitats may lead to rapid evolution of populations with novel phenotypes. In this study we provide the first evidence that isolation in peripheral habitats may have played a critical role in generation of Lake Malawi's cichlid fish diversity. We show that Lake Chilingali, a satellite lake 11.5 km from the shore of Lake Malawi, contains a breeding population of Rhamphochromis,...
