Here's a treat for #sciartportfolioweek: Examples of rapid radiations in evolution, plus a few close-ups of my #vector illustrations of East African cichlids (Mchenga conophorus and orange blotch morph of Labeotropheus feulleborni). ©2019 Annual Reviews https://t.co/8Ofn4f2scc
Crystal water turns to dark
Where ere its presence leaves its mark
And boiling currents pound like drums
When something cichlid this way comes..
A Tropheus moorii for my dad, who is a big fan of cichlids. #cichlids
Another try at digital painting today for #SundayFishSketch. Mikrogeophagus ramirezi, a blue ram cichlid (electric blue ;) ). #sciart #ichthyology #cichlid
There are some pretty amazingly-coloured cichlids out there. This fish, Pundamilia nyererei, from Lake Victoria, is often used as a model species for sexual selection, sensory drive, and speciation.
To all the moms who are balancing things right now, female African cichlids can relate - many cichlid species are maternal mouthbrooders, meaning moms carry their eggs and/or young in their mouths. During this time (sometimes up to a month!), she doesn't eat #SundayFishSketch
Cichlids are an awesome alternative for those who love large brightly colored fish--but don't necessarily want a saltwater tank. 🤔 🐟
What is YOUR favorite thing about cichlid keeping?
Happy #SundayFishSketch! I needed a cartoon jaw diagram of Satanoperca oral jaws so... here they are! Adding to my growing collection... #Cichlids #Snootsquad #Ichthyology #SciArt
Hello #TeamFish! I’m a science illustrator who paints cichlids and other fish. Always happy to paint fish for scientists in need of fish art for talks, websites, presentations, or simply to create your own wall o’ fish. #sciart
This was Katharine Asher’s gorgeous pitch for DeBeers activations at Paris Couture Week & also to consider the design as a suitable print for the venue carpets.
The abstract watercolour was for use as a linking graphic thread with a hand-drawn feel of snake, cichlid & zebra skin.
Dip pen and ink fish sketches! Including one I recognize as
an Earth Eater Cichlid! @zsllondonzoo

@sketchophia Heyyo! I wanna tag @haydendrawsalot who draws amazing things😁👏 And I’m very fascinated by tropical fish 🐠 especially small cichlids, gouramis and rasboras. 🐟
An idea that's been on the back of my mind for the past year, finally materializing in time for the end of #Mermay2019.
Cichlids are fussy about their substrate and will pout if you move things around. Altums are esp. expensive and difficult to keep. Therefore, a mermaid oujo.
Day 26 of #mermay2019 is the Kribensis and it is my first cichlid and first fish from Africa!

Our favorite #cichlid Burt has a new blog post! He talks about our research showing that his #brain responds better to #olfactory signals from females, while his wimpy friend Tyrone's brain responds to signals from males
