On September 5 the molecular phylogeny for a subset of species from the Apistogramma genus was published. This interests a lot of us geeks but the paper is very technical. I just posted a blog with my take on the paper, focusing on the interspecies evolutionary relationships. In addition to an analysis of the molecular phylogeny presented in Figure 1 I compare the results to the lineage, group, complex, subcomplex classification by Mike Wise. There is also a phylogeny 101 and some other comments on methodology and the sequence data for those who want to dig deeper.
I am sure there are errors and omissions, so please comment so I can fix them. Over time, I'd also like to link in information about geographic range.
