Oreochromis contains more than 30 species, and several undescribed forms exist. Judging from mtDNA sequence analysis, several clades seem to exist. Research is hampered because hybridization runs rampant in these fishes, which confounds mtDNA data ( Wami tilapia is an example), and the fast speed of evolution makes choice of appropriate nuclear ...
