Genetic variation in the marbled lungfish Protopterus aethiopicus in Lake Victoria and introduction to Lake Baringo, Kenya

If any of those are of any good.
If you go to somewhere like http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/search or http://www.sciencedirect.com/ and use the search chances are be able to send you any you come up with you think look interesting... just ask.

yes, basic lung care will go a long way...but a key here is to incorporate vegetable matter into the diet, all lungfish species benefit from this, and you'd be surprised how avidly they'll take these foods (that is, if you haven't seen it already) --

giving vegetable matter is part of my basic lung care in my case I feed Hikari algae waffers and Saki-Hikari, as a suplement.

Any tips on other vegetable matter?

And if I'm correct there is also some benefit in feeding chicken (because of the grane they eat), And as a basic if feed Tiger shrimp (WO shell),
,Sprot (Sprattus sprattus), and tilapila, and some Freshwater snails. (in this order).

kensfishfood.com (i believe that's the link) makes really good veggie sticks, which incorporate several different types of vegetable matter into one stick/pellet. they are much cheaper than the hikari algae wafers, although they dissipate in the water much faster...although i've never had a problem with this happening before the lungfish gets to them. i feed those mixed with earthworm sticks regularly, as a supplement to shrimp, which i sometimes soak in vitamins as well--
