Trophic specialisation reflected by radular tooth material properties in an “ancient” Lake Tanganyikan gastropod species flock
BACKGROUND: Lake Tanganyika belongs to the East African Great Lakes and is well known for harbouring a high proportion of endemic and morphologically distinct genera, in cichlids but also in paludomid gastropods. With about 50 species these snails form a flock of high interest because of its diversi...
