Chindongo Bellicosus
''Chindongo'' is a genus of haplochromine cichlids, the species of which are endemic to Lake Malawi. The genus was described in 2016 with ''Chindongo bellicosus'' as the type species, the authors then added species previously classified in the genus ''Pseudotropheus'' in the ''P. elongatus'' species complex. Characteristics The differences which distinguish the genus ''Chindongo'' from other mbuna genera in Lake Malawi are the possession of bicuspid teeth in the front parts of the outer rows of both the upper and lower mandibles, the vomer is moderately to steeply sloped and has a narrow rostral tip has an angle of between 53° and 68° with the parasphenoid, they have a small mouth in which the lower jaw is slightly shorter than the upper jaw, there is a wide tooth bearing area on the anterior portions of both the premaxillary bone and dentary which have three or more rows of teeth (normally 5–6 rows) and a pattern of vertical bars on their flanks throughout their development. ...

Taxa Named By Jay Richard Stauffer Jr
In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; plural taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion. If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were set forth in Carl Linnaeus's system in ''Systema Naturae'', 10th edition (1758), as well as an unpublished work by Bernard and Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. The idea of a unit-based system of biological classification was first made widely available in 1805 in the intro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Donald S
Donald is a masculine given name derived from the Gaelic name ''Dòmhnall''.. This comes from the Proto-Celtic *''Dumno-ualos'' ("world-ruler" or "world-wielder"). The final -''d'' in ''Donald'' is partly derived from a misinterpretation of the Gaelic pronunciation by English speakers, and partly associated with the spelling of similar-sounding Germanic names, such as ''Ronald''. A short form of ''Donald'' is ''Don''. Pet forms of ''Donald'' include ''Donnie'' and ''Donny''. The feminine given name ''Donella'' is derived from ''Donald''. ''Donald'' has cognates in other Celtic languages: Modern Irish ''Dónal'' (anglicised as ''Donal'' and ''Donall'');. Scottish Gaelic ''Dòmhnall'', ''Domhnull'' and ''Dòmhnull''; Welsh '' Dyfnwal'' and Cumbric ''Dumnagual''. Although the feminine given name ''Donna'' is sometimes used as a feminine form of ''Donald'', the names are not etymologically related.

Pseudotropheus Saulosi
''Pseudotropheus saulosi'' is a species of cichlid endemic to Lake Malawi in East Africa where it lives in areas with rocky substrates. It is classified as a dwarf-mbuna and was first described by Ad Konings in 1990 who gave it the specific name ''saulosi'' in honour of Saulos Mwale who caught over 3,000 specimens in a single day on the expedition which collected the type. It comes from an area of the lake called Taiwan Reef, and from nowhere else. This fish can also be found in the aquarium trade.Barber, PPseudotropheus saulosi.CichlidForum. Retrieved 16 April 2017. This species can reach a length of TL. The fish are born yellow but as they reach maturity males turn blue with several vertical black bars. Less dominant males are paler blue and it is possible for some younger males to remain mixed in with the females, in typical yellow female dress. When the dominant male leaves a certain group, one of these incognito males may color up and become dominant. ''Pseudotropheus s ...
