从马拉维湖出口的大多数观赏鱼是10个经常出没于岩石的属的慈鲷，统称为奇通加名字Mbuna。这些鱼类提供了一个典型的例子，在湖内异域物种。文中给出了196种的分布，并对生境偏好、深度分布和行为作了说明。相当大的重点放在着色和标识，它认为，他们是重要的配偶识别。简要说明了其他一些岩石海岸鱼，特别是在属Cyrtocara。水族馆鱼类资源的价值主要在于其物种丰富度。大多数Mbuna物种在地理上受到限制和狭窄。大多数发生在上20米。姆布纳是营养专家，但有能力在各种食物资源的机会喂养。资源分配受不同营养类群的影响。有证据表明，在一个特定的营养群体中，以...
Most aquarium fishes exported from Lake Malawi are cichlids of 10 rock-frequenting genera collectively referred to by their Chitonga name, Mbuna. These fishes provide a classical example of intralacustrine allopatric speciation. The distribution of 196 species is given with notes on habitat preferenda, depth distribution and behaviour. Considerable emphasis is placed on coloration and markings for identification and it is argued that they are important for mate recognition. Brief notes are given on some of the other rocky shore fishes particularly in the genus Cyrtocara. The value of the aquarium fish resource resides principally in its species richness. Most Mbuna species are geographically restricted and stenotopic. The majority occur in the upper 20 m. Mbuna are trophic specialists, but have the ability to feed opportunistically on a variety of food resources. Resource partitioning is effected by different trophic groups. Evidence suggests that species within a particular trophic group which feed upon ...
