Abstract Analysis of the diversification of barbs of the generalized form of the Barbus (= Labeobarbus) intermedius complex in the monomorphic populations of Langano and Awasa lakes and in the polymorphic population of Lake Tana makes it possible to reveal parameters of the variability that is directed to trophic resource partitioning. The great similarity of the parameters revealed in the three studied water bodies shows that in monomorphic populations the structure of variability directed to trophic resource partitioning is identical to that in the polymorphic population. The concept of “vector of trophic resource partitioning” is introduced. In the polymorphic population, this vector makes the main contribution to the diversification of individuals, while its importance is secondary in monomorphic populations. It is concluded that the different evolutionary potential of polymorphic and monomorphic populations is determined by the specific weight of diversification caused by the vector of trophic resource partitioning. The original method of data analysis used in the study may be promising for studying similar situations in other systematic groups.

Trophic resource partitioning is one of the main drivers of adaptive radiation. The evolutionary diversification of large African barbs, the genus Labeobarbus, seems to be related to mouth polymorphism. The chisel-mouthed or scraping phenotype has repeatedly evolved within Labeobarbus. At least five ecomorphs with a scraping mouth morphology were detected in the waters of the Ethiopian Highlands and can be provisionally classified into two groups: (i) “Varicorhinus”-like, and (ii) “Smiling”-like. Previously, all Labeobarbus with a scraping-mouth morphology were considered to be periphyton feeders. Using data on morphology, diet and stable isotope ratios (C and N), we addressed the question: does a scraping-mouth morphology predict feeding on periphyton? Our study revealed that five scraper ecomorphs exhibited three main feeding modes: (i) periphyton-eating, (ii) herbivory–detritivory, and (iii) insectivory. Two cases of the parallel divergence of sympatric ecomorphs with distinct feeding modes (herbivory–detritivory vs. insectivory) were revealed in two geographically isolated basins. A significant difference in δ15N values was detected among sympatric scraper ecomorphs. A periphytonophagous scraper was rich in δ15N values that are comparable with those in sympatric piscivorous fish. This data sheds light on the possibility of the utilization of periphyton as a protein-rich food by fishes.
