The utility of geometric morphometrics to elucidate pathways of cichlid fish evolution
Fishes of the family Cichlidae are famous for their spectacular species flocks and therefore
constitute a model system for the study of the pathways of adaptive radiation. Their radiation …

Geometric morphometric analyses provide evidence for the adaptive character of the Tanganyikan cichlid fish radiations
Abstract The cichlids of East Africa are renowned as one of the most spectacular examples
of adaptive radiation. They provide a unique opportunity to investigate the relationships …

Rapid evolution and selection inferred from the transcriptomes of sympatric crater lake cichlid fishes
Crater lakes provide a natural laboratory to study speciation of cichlid fishes by ecological
divergence. Up to now, there has been a dearth of transcriptomic and genomic information …

Phenotype‐environment correlations in a putative whitefish adaptive radiation
The adaptive radiation of fishes into benthic (littoral) and pelagic (lentic) morphs in post‐
glacial lakes has become an important model system for speciation. Although these systems …

Dealing with allometry in linear and geometric morphometrics: a taxonomic case study in the Leporinus cylindriformis group (Characiformes: Anostomidae) with …
To achieve maximum efficacy, taxonomic studies that seek to distinguish amongst species
must first account for allometric shape variation within species. Two recently developed …
