The Lake Tanganyika cichlid species assemblage: recent advances in molecular phylogenetics (2008, background): “Indeed, diversification of the littoral cichlid tribes Eretmodini (Rüber et al., 1998) and Tropheini (Sturmbauer et al., 2003, 2005; Egger et al., 2007) was probably severely affected by lake-level fluctuations, coupled with parallel evolution of equivalent trophic types (Rüber et al., 1999; Sturm”
Adaptive, pre-adaptive and non-adaptive components of radiations in ancient lakes: a review (2004, background): “A correlation between general incidence of parthenogenesis in several ostracod lineages and the extent of their (endemic) species flocks in Lake Baikal and Lake Tanganyika is given in Fig.”
African cichlid fish: a model system in adaptive radiation research (2006, background): “A sixth lineage, the Tropheini, also show evidence of an early starburst followed by declining speciation rates (Sturmbauer et al. 2003), even though no ultrametric tree is published that would have allowed a plot.”
