Hearing in Cichlid Fishes under Noise Conditions
BACKGROUND Hearing thresholds of fishes are typically acquired under laboratory conditions. This does not reflect the situation in natural habitats, where ambient noise may mask their hearing sensitivities. In the current study we investigate hearing in terms of sound pressure (SPL) and particle acceleration levels (PAL) of two cichlid species within the naturally occurring range of noise level...
متن کاملTrophic radiation through polymorphism in cichlid fishes.
Several morphologically defined species of cichlid fishes (Cichlasoma) endemic to the Cuatro Cienegas basin of Mexico and differing in tooth structure, body shape, and diet are allelically identical at 27 gene loci. The presence of only one Mendelian population in each of three drainage systems studied and the occurrence of two of the morphotypes in the same broods indicate that the supposed sp...
متن کاملCrater lake colonization by neotropical cichlid fishes.
Volcanic crater lakes are isolated habitats that are particularly well suited to investigating ecological and evolutionary divergence and modes of speciation. However, the mode, frequency, and timing of colonization of crater lakes have been difficult to determine. We used a statistical comparative phylogeographic approach, based on a mitochondrialDNA dataset, to infer the colonization history ...
متن کاملThe Midas cichlid species complex: incipient sympatric speciation in Nicaraguan cichlid fishes?
Abstract Sympatric speciation is a contentious concept, although theoretical models as well as empirical evidence support its relevance in evolutionary biology. The Midas cichlid species complex (Amphilophus citrinellus, labiatus, zaliosus) from several crater lakes in Nicaragua fits several of the key characteristics of a sympatric speciation model. In particular, in A. citrinellus (i) strong ...
متن کاملSpeech Recognition Under Noise Conditions: Compensation Methods
In most of the practical applications of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), the input speech is contaminated by a background noise. This strongly degrades the performance of speech recognizers (Gong, 1995; Cole et al., 1995; Torre et al., 2000). The reduction of the accuracy could make unpractical the use of ASR technology in applications that must work in real conditions, where the input spee...
