SPECIES DIVERSITY OF CICHLIDOGYRUS (DACTYLOGYRIDAE) PARASITES OF TANGANYIKAN CICHLIDS: IT IS JUST BEGINNING … AND CONTINUES
Original language description
Cichlids are one of the most species-rich families of vertebrates. Lake Tanganyika, the deepest and oldest lake in Africa, counts the most genetically, morphologically and ecologically diverse cichlid assemblage of African lakes and holds about 250 endemic species belonging to more than fifty genera and 14 to 16 tribes. Its mostly endemic cichlids are considered as a model to study biological diversification and radiation. Tanganyikan cichlids were started to be investigated for their gill ectoparasites during a few last years. Our results seem to confirm that species richness of cichlid parasites in Lake Tanganyika is higher than the number of cichlid species in this lake. Based on our knowledge on freshwater fish monogeneans, the taxonomy of Cichlidogyrus will remain, just as their hosts’ systematics is frequently revised, a subject of frequent revision.
