Comparable Ages for the Independent Origins of Electrogenesis in African and South American Weakly Electric Fishes
One of the most remarkable examples of convergent evolution among vertebrates is illustrated by the independent origins of an active electric sense in South American and African weakly electric fishes, the Gymnotiformes and Mormyroidea, respectively. These groups independently evolved similar comple...
