Cichlid fishes from African Lake Tanganyika shed light on how organismal diversity arises

Lake Tanganyika in Africa is a true hotspot of organismal diversity. Approximately 240 species of cichlid fishes have evolved in this lake in less than 10 million years. A research team has investigated this phenomenon of ‘explosive speciation’ and provides new insights into the origins of biological diversity.
