Molecular phylogenetics reveals convergent evolution in lower Congo River spiny eels

BACKGROUND: The lower Congo River (LCR) is a region of exceptional species diversity and endemism in the Congo basin, including numerous species of spiny eels (genus Mastacembelus). Four of these exhibit distinctive phenotypes characterized by greatly reduced optic globes deeply embedded into the he...
