  abstract = {{T}he chromosomal diversity within six species of {M}ormyridae belonging to six different genera ({G}nathonemus petersii, {M}arcusenius moorii, {I}vindomyrus obdenboschi, {B}rienomyrus sp., {S}tomatorhinus walkeri and {P}etrocephalus microphthalmus) is investigated for the first time. {T}hese species have a conserved diploid chromosome number of 2n = 50 (except {G}. petersii 2n = 48) but different chromosome formulae, essentially involving pericentric inversions. {C}-banding has been used for the localization of heterochromatin. {F}or a deeper interspecific comparison, several molecular markers were localized in the chromosomes by fluorescence in situ hybridization ({FISH}): a 18{S} r{DNA} probe; a microsatellite probe ({GAA})(10), and a telomeric probe ({TTAGGG})(7). {T}he distribution of the 18{S} r{DNA} patterns, in particular, shows an amazing specific diversity, confirming a rapid radiation accompanied by major chromosome rearrangements.},
