    Phylogenetic relationships between some African Characidae, Disticho-dontidae and Hepsetidae: results of allozyme and mtDNA data analyses

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Aquatic Science • Authors: FH van der Bank A Kotzé TM Falk
    The present study considers phylogenetic relationships of some southern, eastern and western African Characidae, Distichodontidae and Hepsetidae species, for which only limited genetic data with respect to their classification and phylogeny are currently available. Thirteen species representing three families and...
