CICHLIDOGYRUS (MONOGENEA: DACTYLOGYRIDAE) FROM LAKE TANGANYIKA CICHLIDS: A PHYLOGENETIC AND EVOLUTIONARY APPROACH OF THE PARASITE FAUNA OF LAKE TANGANYIKA CICHLID TRIBES

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Lake Tanganyika, the oldest lake in Africa, harbors the most genetically, morphologically and ecologically diverse cichlid assemblages of the African Great Lakes. Its mostly endemic cichlids are considered as a model to study adaptive radiation and rapiddiversification. Because of the apparently high host specificity of gill monogeneans, phylogenetic studies using molecular data of these parasites offer an interesting additional approach to study their host?s diversity, evolution and host-parasite interactions. Cichlids in Africa are known to host five different genera of monogeneans, Cichlidogyrus being the most diverse with more than 95 species recorded from more than 70 cichlids. Members of Cichlidogyrus are gill ectoparasites. To recognize different species of Cichlidogyrus, morphological data (haptor and male copulatory organs (MCO)) in addition to molecular phylogenetic analyses are used.
