Perissodus microlepis

''Perissodus microlepis'' is a species of cichlid endemic to Lake Tanganyika. This species reaches a length of TL. This species can also be found in the aquarium trade. It is a scale-eating 'parasite' on other fish species. It occurs in two distinct morphological forms. One morph has mouth parts twisted to the left, enabling it to eat scales off its victim’s right flank. In contrast, the other morph, whose mouth is twisted to the right, eats scales off its victim’s left flank. The relative abundance of the two morphs in populations is regulated by frequency-dependent selection.〔Hori, M. 1993. (Frequency-dependent natural selection in the handedness of scale-eating cichlid fish ). Science 260: 216–219.〕〔Stewart, T. A. and Albertson, R. C. (2010) ("Evolution of a unique predatory feeding apparatus: functional anatomy, development and a genetic locus for jaw laterality in Lake Tanganyika scale-eating cichlids" ) ''BMC Biology'', 8 (1): 8. 〕〔Lee HJ, Kusche H, Meyer A (2012) Handed Foraging Behavior in Scale-Eating Cichlid Fish: Its Potential Role in Shaping Morphological Asymmetry.
