Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

The Chitande aulonocara (Aulonocara ethelwynnae) is a species of haplochromine cichlid which is endemic to Lake Malawi, only occurring in the north-west of the Lake near Chitande Island.[1] It occurs over habitats of mixed rock and sand and it feeds on benthic invertebrates.[2] The males show territorial behaviour all year and defend their territories from other males. These territorial males are found in deeper areas around Шаблон:Convert while the non territorial males and the females are rarely seen below Шаблон:Convert. Ripe females descend towards the males and spawning takes place in a cavity or, if the male's territory does not include a cavity, on the open sand.[1] The specific name honours the British ichthyologist Ethelwynn Trewavas (1900–1993) of the British Museum (Natural History) who described a number of species of cichlid from Lake Malawi.[3]
