Genetic and environmental effects on the morphological asymmetry in the scale‐eating cichlid fish, Perissodus microlepis

The scale‐eating cichlid fish, Perissodus microlepis, from Lake Tanganyika are a well‐known example of an asymmetry dimorphism because the mouth/head is either left‐bending or right‐bending.
