CHAPTER 17. CICHLIDAE (Family 387) (Kevin Fitzsimmons Wade O. Watanabe) ? 17.1 General introduction (Cichlidae) 17.2 Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) (~20 pages 8-9 500 words) INTRODUCTION TO Tilapia Culture Chapter Tilapia, native to Africa and the Middle East, are one of the world’s most important food fishes. People living in the native range of tilapia have caught these fish in the wild for millennia. Tilapia is a common name that is now applied to several genera and species of fish that were formerly classified in the genus Tilapia, in the Family Cichlidae. In the reclassification scheme developed by Trewavas (1983) the several hundred species of Tilapia were split into three genera, Oreochromis, Sarotherodon and some remained as Tilapia. The Oreochromis are maternal mouthbrooders, the Sarotherodon are paternal mouthbrooders and the Tilapia are substrate spawners. The species that are most commonly reared in aquaculture are in the genus Oreochromis. These include the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, the Mozambique tilapia, O. mossambicus, the blue tilapia, O. aureus, and O. urolepis hornorum, sometime called the Wami River tilapia. These species will all readily hybridize in captivity. There are now many strains of the parent species along with many hybrid strains available to growers. These will be described in some detail later in the chapter. There are also several species in the genus Tilapia and the genus Sarotherodon that are of interest to aquaculture. Tilapia, like the other cichlids, are of special interest to hobbyists and ecologists. Tilapia in Africa have been intensively studied for the species clusters that have evolved in the Rift Lakes of East Africa. Some lakes contain over one hundred species in a single genus. Some of the tilapias native ranges extend up into Israel and Syria. One of the common names for the fish is St. Peter’s fish. This comes from the fact that two species of tilapia are native to lakes in Israel and a
