Osteology of the African annual killifish genus Callopanchax (Teleostei: Cyprinodontiformes: Nothobranchiidae) and phylogenetic implications (2008/2009)
Osteological structures of Callopanchax are first described and illustrated. Twenty-six characters derived from comparisons of osseous structures among some aplocheiloid fishes provided evidence supporting hypotheses of relationships among three western African genera (Callopanchax, Scriptaphyosemion and Archiaphyosemion), as proposed in recent molecular analysis. The clade comprising Callopanchax, Scriptaphyosemion...
