From a pair to a dozen: the piscivorous species of Haplochromis (Cichlidae) from the Lake Edward system
Piscivory is a common trophic niche among cichlids of the East African Great Lakes, including Lakes Edward and George. From these two lakes, we examined the taxonomic diversity of cichlid species with a piscivorous morphology. Prior to this study, two piscivorous species were formally described, Ha...
