Development of the caudal-fin skeleton reveals multiple convergent fusions within Atherinomorpha
Frontiers in Zoology, 2021 Background The caudal fin of teleosts is a highly diverse morphological structure and a valuable source of information for comparative analyses. Within the Atherinomorpha a high variation of conditions of the caudal-fin skeleton can be found. These range

Mating and aggressive behaviour of Brachyrhaphis olomina (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae) [PDF]
Journal of Ethology, 2017 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’

SPERMATOGONIES ET SPERMATOCYTES FLAGELLÉS CHEZ POECILIA RETICULATA (TÉLÉOSTÉENS CYPRINODONTIFORMES) [PDF]
Annales de Biologie Animale Biochimie Biophysique, 1969 La présence d'un flagelle sur des spermatogonies et spermatocytes et de 2 flagelles sur des spermatides est décrite chez le Guppy (Poecilia reticulata). Les flagelles présents sur les gonies et spermatocytes sont plus courts que ceux des spermatides et débouchent directement hors des cellules. Le mode de formation des flagelles est discuté.
