Tetrahymena Infection in Guppy, Poecilia reticulata.
Fish Pathology, 2000 Out of 78 diseased guppies imported from Singapore to Japan, 43 fish were found infected with ciliates. Thus, pathological examination of guppies naturally infected with ciliates and identification of a ciliate sampled from guppies in Singapore were conducted. Most of the ciliates parasitized the inside of scales, muscles or internal organs, while some

Predator-induced changes of female mating preferences: innate and experiential effects [PDF]
, 2011 Background: In many species males face a higher predation risk than females because males display elaborate traits that evolved under sexual selection, which may attract not only females but also predators. Females are, therefore, predicted to avoid such
