Electrophoretic Demonstration of the Hybrid Origin of the Gynogenetic Teleost Poecilia formosa
Electrophoretic serum protein analysis reveals that the gynogenetic species Poecilia formosa possesses two albumin bands that are identical with those of laboratory-produced hybrids of its two sympatric species, P. latipinna and P. mexicana. The presumed parental species possess single albumins that are different in electrophoretic mobility.

Influence of black spot disease on shoaling behaviour in female western mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis (Poeciliidae, Teleostei) [PDF]
Parasites can fundamentally alter the cost-benefit ratio of living in a group, e.g. if infected individuals increase the predation risk of shoal mates. Here, the effect of an infection with a trematode, Uvulifer sp.
