Correction to: Mating and aggressive behaviour of Brachyrhaphis olomina (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae) [PDF]
Abstract Despite the increasing interest in the use of intromittent male genitalia and coercive mating behaviour in poeciliids, detailed studies of the mating behaviour of most species in this family are lacking. We describe here the mating and aggressive behaviours of Brachyrhaphis olomina, and correlate them with the condition of the female’

Extensive karyotype variability of African fish genus Nothobranchius (Cyprinodontiformes) [PDF]
Karyotypes of 65 species of the genus Nothobranchius Peters, 1868 were reviewed and of those 35 examined first time. The results of present study have shown that fishes of the genus Nothobranchius possessed highly diverse karyotypes.

Karyosystematics of an Endemic tooth-carp, Aphanius shirini (Teleostei: cyprinodontidae) from Iran [PDF]
The karyological and cytological characteristics of an endemic cyprinodont fish of Iran, Aphanius shirini have been investigated for the first time by examining metaphase chromosomes spreads obtained from gill epithelial and kidney cells.

Sex change (sequential hermaphroditism) has evolved repeatedly in teleost fishes when demographic conditions mediate fundamentally different sex-specific returns for individuals of particular age and size. We investigated the conditions for potential sex

Genomic Signatures Associated with Transitions to Viviparity in Cyprinodontiformes
AbstractThe transition from oviparity to viviparity has occurred independently over 150 times across vertebrates, presenting one of the most compelling cases of phenotypic convergence. However, whether the repeated, independent evolution of viviparity is driven by redeployment of similar genetic mechanisms and whether these leave a common signature in ...
