Endemic radiations provide splendid opportunities for studies in evolutionary biology.
Species flocks in ancient lakes, such as in Tanganyika, Malawi or Baikal, have featured …

The study of species flocks in island settings such as ancient lakes can contribute
significantly to our understanding of fundamental evolutionary processes, such as …

The paludomid gastropods of Lake Tanganyika are one of the most spectacular examples of
species flocks among molluscs. However, whether they provide an example of …

The patterns of adaptive radiations in ancient lakes provide valuable clues to mechanisms of
speciation and adaptation. In contrast to vertebrate radiations, for instance in fishes or …

Ancient lakes have provided considerable insights into the drivers of speciation and
adaptive radiation in aquatic organisms. Most studies of species-flocks, however, focus only …

The viviparous freshwater gastropod Tylomelania (Caenogastropoda: Cerithioidea:
Pachychilidae) endemic to the Indonesian island Sulawesi has radiated extensively in two …

Species flocks in ancient lakes have long been appreciated as ideal model systems for the
study of speciation and adaptive processes. We here present data from a new invertebrate …

As much as the century-long debate on what species are has created confusion and
controversy, not less has speciation been discussed, ie, the process of how new forms and …

Some of the world's most spectacular species radiations or species flocks are found in so-
called 'ancient lakes'. h ese are long-lived lakes that have existed for 100 000 years …

Lakes provide ideal natural laboratories for the study of evolutionary processes. Research
on an assumed adaptive radiation of a species flock of viviparous freshwater gastropods in …
