We use historic water temperature measurements to define a deep-water warming trend in Lake Malawi, East Africa. Over the past six decades, the temperature of the deep water below 300 m has increased by ~0.7°C. The warming trend is due mainly to the

Males of mouthbrooding cichlids build sand-castle or sand-scrape structures. These are used as display sites to attract females, eggs are laid and inseminated there and then taken away by the female for brooding elsewhere. It has been suggested that

SUMMARY Parker attributed a mass mortality of Lates in Lake Albert to the shock effect of an earthquake which occurred at the same time. A consideration of the limnology of the lake and of limitations to the ability of fish to adjust their buoyancy s

Lake Malawi, in tropical central Africa, is 560 by 75 km and consists of a single basin, maximum depth 695 m. Below 250 m the lake is homothermal at about 22.5°C and is anoxic. Above this level there is a seasonal cycle with the development of a mar

Turner (1982 b ) considered that the presence of Chaoborus in Lake Malawi and its absence from Lake Tanganyika implies that the clupeid fishes of the latter are more efficient zooplanktivores than the fishes in Lake Malawi. He suggested that in lakes

Both Lake Malawi and Lake Victoria have many species of offshore demersal cichlids, most of which are stenotopic. In Lake Tanganyika there are fewer, more eurytopic, demersal species. These differences may be the effect of the physical regimes of the

Haplochromis chrysonotus, a semipelagic shoaling cichlid from Lake Malawi, has been observed spawning in open water up to ten metres above the substratum. It is suggested that open water spawning without the establishment of a substratum-based territ
