The phenomenon of a massive vertebral deformity was recorded in the radiating Labeobarbus assemblage from the middle reaches of the Genale River (south-eastern Ethiopia, East Africa). Within this sympatric assemblage, five trophic morphs - generalized, lipped, piscivorous and two scraping feeders - were reported between 1993 and 2019. In 2009, a new morph with prevalence of ~10% was discovered. The new morph, termed short, had an abnormally shortened vertebral column and a significantly heightened...
