A 40-year taxonomic enigma: multigene phylogeny resolves the polyphyly of Plectranthias (Perciformes: Anthiadidae) and supports a revised taxonomy
Abstract. Anthiadidae, a family of shallow and deep-water reef-associated fishes, include about 250 species distributed widely from tropical to temperate r

We have 🐟 herring pre print!
Our new study reveals that ancient gene flow between Pacific and Atlantic herring played a key role in helping Atlantic herring adapt to the brackish waters of the Baltic Sea.

Using fish teeth fossils from lake sediments, we found the haplochromine cichlids diversified quite rapidly and the entire food web evolved within just the first three millennia after the formation of modern Lake Victoria (which started refilling ~ 17k years ago). www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Fossil evidence for trait diversification in an adaptive radiation - Scientific Reports
Adaptive radiation is an important process for the origin of functional and ecological biodiversity. Understanding how, when, and why adaptive radiations occur is a long-standing interest in evolution...

Yet another example of the importance of natural history collections. Here, helping to address two questions:
• Responses to climate change (here, temperature and precipitation mattered in different ways)
• What sets range limits

Homoploid Hybrid Speciation in a Marine Pelagic Fish
