Fig. 1. — Recurrent evolution of horizontal stripes in East African cichlids. (A) Phylogeny of East African cichlid lineages based on 6,545 genome-wide random loci of 3 kb. Node color indicates lake of origin (Malawi in blue, Tanganyika in green, Victoria in orange, and the Lake Victoria outgroups in purple) and if the species shows horizontal stripes (dark color with stripes) or not (light color). (B) Map of the African Great Lakes and surrounding lakes with dotted lines connecting species in the phylogeny to their lake of origin. Horizontal stripes are present in about one-third of the species in all radiations. Photographs from top to bottom: Pundamilia nyererei, Haplochromis sauvagei, Astatotilapia stappersii, Pseudotropheus demasoni, Melanochromis kaskazini.
