Pelvicachromis Drachenfelsi
''Pelvicachromis'' is a genus of small (), brightly coloured cichlids from tropical West Africa and Central Africa. They typically inhabit soft, acidic water ( pH 5.6 – 6.9). All species form monogamous pairs and use caves as spawning sites. Most are easily spawned in captivity with adequate water quality. Species There are currently 11 recognized species in this genus: * '' Pelvicachromis drachenfelsi'' Lamboj, Bartel & dell’Ampio, 2014 * '' Pelvicachromis humilis'' Boulenger, 1916 * '' Pelvicachromis kribensis'' Boulenger, 1911 * ''Pelvicachromis pulcher'' Boulenger, 1901 (Rainbow Kribensis) * ''Pelvicachromis roloffi'' Thys van den Audenaerde, 1968 * ''Pelvicachromis rubrolabiatus'' Lamboj, 2004 * '' Pelvicachromis sacrimontis'' Paulo, 1977 (Often mislabelled as ''P. pulcher'') * '' Pelvicachromis signatus'' Lamboj, 2004 * '' Pelvicachromis silviae'' Lamboj, 2013 * '' Pelvicachromis subocellatus'' Günther, 1872 * ''Pelvicachromis taeniatus'' Boulenger, 1901 ...

A dirk is a long bladed thrusting dagger.Chisholm, Hugh (ed.), ''Dagger'', The Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th ed., Vol. VII, New York, NY: Cambridge University Press (1910), p. 729 Historically, it gained its name from the Highland Dirk (Scots Gaelic "Dearg") where it was a personal weapon of officers engaged in naval hand-to-hand combat during the Age of SailO'Brian, Patrick, ''Men-of-War: Life In Nelson's Navy'', New York: W.W. Norton & Co., (1974), p. 35 as well as the personal sidearm of Highlanders. It was also the traditional sidearm of the Highland Clansman and later used by the officers, pipers, and drummers of Scottish Highland regiments around 1725 to 1800 and by Japanese naval officers.

Tropical Fish
Tropical fish are generally those fish found in aquatic tropical environments around the world. Fishkeepers often keep tropical fish in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. The term "tropical fish" is not a taxonomic group, but rather is a general term for fish found in such environments, particularly those kept in aquariums. Aquarium fish Tropical fish is a term commonly used to refer to fish that are kept in heated aquariums. Freshwater tropical fish are more commonly kept than saltwater tropical fish due to the common availability of fresh water sources, such as tap water, whereas salt water is not commonly available and has to be recreated by using fresh water with sea salt additions. Salt water has to be monitored to maintain the correct salinity because of the effects of evaporation. Freshwater tropical aquariums can be maintained by simply topping up with fresh water. Tropical fish are popular choices for aquariums due to their often bright coloration, which typically ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dwarf Cichlid
Dwarf cichlid is a term used by fishkeeping hobbyists to describe an arbitrary assemblage of small-sized fish from the family Cichlidae. Although the grouping is widely used in the aquarium industry and hobby, the grouping has no taxonomic or ecological basis and is poorly defined.Linke H, Staeck L (1994) ''American cichlids I: Dwarf Cichlids. A handbook for their identification, care and breeding.'' Tetra Press. Germany. Though dwarf cichlids are by definition small-sized cichlids, there is no accepted maximum length of a dwarf-sized cichlid. Some authors suggest a maximum of 10 centimetres (3.9 in.), while other suggest a maximum length of 12 centimetres (4.7 in.).Richter H-J (1989) ''Complete Book of Dwarf Cichlids.'' Tropical Fish Hobbyist, USA The term is most frequently used to describe small South American or West African species which are suitable for soft, acidic ( pH 4 to 7) densely planted aquariums, however, some aquarists and authors include within this "dwarf cichli ...

Pelvicachromis Taeniatus
''Pelvicachromis taeniatus'' is a species of cichlid from Benin and Nigeria that is occasionally kept as an aquarium fish. It is native to the soft-water rivers. This species can reach a length of SL. It is known to exist in a variety of geographically restricted varieties distinguished by differences in coloration. These are often given names such as "Nigerian red" or "Moliwe" that refer to the places where each variety is collected. The species ''P. taeniatus'' formerly included populations from Cameroon. A 2014 study by Lamboj, Bartel & dell’Ampio found that the Cameroon populations were a different species from the Nigeria populations, and identified the Cameroon populations as belonging to the species ''Pelvicachromis kribensis'' and ''Pelvicachromis drachenfelsi''. Lamboj, Bartel & dell’Ampio found that ''P. kribensis'', ''P. drachenfelsi''and ''P. taeniatus'' are closely related and form a clade within the genus ''Pelvicachromis'', which they described as the "''P ...

Albert Günther
Albert Karl Ludwig Gotthilf Günther FRS, also Albert Charles Lewis Gotthilf Günther (3 October 1830 – 1 February 1914), was a German-born British zoologist, ichthyologist, and herpetologist. Günther is ranked the second-most productive reptile taxonomist (after George Albert Boulenger) with more than 340 reptile species described. Early life and career Günther was born in Esslingen in Swabia (Württemberg). His father was a ''Stiftungs-Commissar'' in Esslingen and his mother was Eleonora Nagel. He initially schooled at the Stuttgart Gymnasium. His family wished him to train for the ministry of the Lutheran Church for which he moved to the University of Tübingen. A brother shifted from theology to medicine, and he, too, turned to science and medicine at Tübingen in 1852. His first work was "''Ueber den Puppenzustand eines Distoma''". He graduated in medicine with an M.D. from Tübingen in 1858, the same year in which he published a handbook of zoology for students of ...

Pelvicachromis Silviae
''Pelvicachromis silviae'' is a species of cichlid in the genus ''Pelvicachromis''. It is found in the Niger River, in the same region as congeners ''Pelvicachromis pulcher'' and ''Pelvicachromis taeniatus''. It was described by Anton Lamboj in 2013. Prior to its formal description it was relatively common in the aquarium fish hobby, denoted as either a subspecies of ''Pelvicachromis subocellatus'' or as an undescribed species similar to ''P. subocelatus'', ''Pelvicachromis sp. aff. subocellatus.'' Lamboj concurs that it is more closely related to ''P. subocellatus'' than to other ''Pelvocachromis'' species and regards it as part of the ''P. subocellatus'' group within the genus ''Pelvicachromis''. Lamboj named ''P. silviae'' after his wife Silvia, to thank her for supporting his scientific work. Although similar in appearance to ''P. subocellatus'' and the more common ''P. pulcher'', it has a deeper body than either species. The main body color is pale or yellowish brown, ...

Pelvicachromis Sacrimontis
''Pelvicachromis sacrimontis'' is a freshwater fish of the cichlid family known only from a small area of southeastern Nigeria. Currently Fishbase considers this binomial to be a junior synonym of ''P. pulcher'' and, it was also known as ''Pelvicachromis camerunensis'', ''P. pulcher'' "form B" or ''P. ''sp.'' aff. pulcher'' but some authorities now consider it to be a valid species. It is occasionally available in the tropical fish trade as "giant krib" and there are three colour morphs – red, green and yellow. And are the most colorful of the Pelvicachromis family. Today its popularity increases due to more order demands by aquarium hobbyists. General ''P. sacrimontis'' grows to a length of approximately with adult males some 15–25% larger than females. Sexual dimorphism and dichromatism is well developed. The body is generally brown and darker above than below.
