Adaptive radiation, speciation, and reproductive isolation in African weakly electric fish : (Genus Campylomormyrus, Mormyridae, Teleostei)

The ultimate aim of this study is to better understand the relevance of weak electricity in the adaptive radiation of the African mormyrid fish. The chosen model taxon, the genus Campylomormyrus, exhibits a wide diversity of electric organ discharge (EOD) waveform types. Their EOD is age, sex, and s...
