This study evaluated whether the African cyprinid Barbus neumayeri from Rwembaita Swamp (low-oxygen) and Njuguta River (high-oxygen) in the Kibale National Park, Uganda differed in traits related to aerobic and anaerobic metabolic potential. Haematocrit was measured as an index of blood oxygen-carrying capacity, and tissue activities and isozyme composition of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were m...

This study described the behavior of the swamp-dwelling African cyprinid Barbus neumayeri in response to laboratory acclimation to normoxic and hypoxic conditions to detect costs associated with hypoxia exposure. Behavioral observations were conducted every two weeks over a four-week acclimation period in both normoxic and hypoxic conditions, and feeding trials were conducted after six weeks of...
