Lake Tanganyika Cichlids

"Taken as a whole the Tanganyikan cichlids represent the most outstanding example of adaptive radiation of all those to be considered" - G. Fryer & T.D. Iles (1972). 

Working with the Salzburger Lab at the University of Basel, I am creating watercolor illustrations of all 250+ species in Lake Tanganyika. These beautifully diverse cichlids will appear in papers and presentations of the lab's research into the molecular processes underlying adaptation and diversification.
