Freshwater fish as hosts for parasites in Australia: How much do we really know?
Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2024.Abstract Australia has a highly endemic freshwater fish fauna, but basic biological knowledge for most is lacking. This includes an understanding, and description, of their parasite fauna. Additionally, the impacts of introduced fish species, and their parasites which have transferred across to native species, are also mostly unknown.

Effects of artificial photoperiod on the body colouration in the ornamental fish poecilia sphenops
Kongunadu Research Journal, 2020 In Orange balloon Molly, Poecilia sphenops, the development of chronic stress due to continuous exposure to artificial LED lighting irrespective to photoperiod causes deterioration in the body colour even in the presence of carotenoid rich green water and artificial feed with added additives in the experimental fishtank setup. In the present study, the

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2010 Poecilia sphenops was acclimated to two thermal fluctuations, each following a symmetrical and asymmetrical cycle. The critical maximum temperatures of the fish were significantly different (P < 0.001) between the thermal fluctuations: 40°C for the 20-29°

Sex-specific local life-history adaptation in surface- and cave-dwelling Atlantic mollies (Poecilia mexicana) [PDF]
, 2016 Cavefishes have long been used as model organisms showcasing adaptive diversification, but does adaptation to caves also facilitate the evolution of reproductive isolation from surface ancestors?

Survival in an extreme habitat: the roles of behaviour and energy limitation [PDF]
, 2018 Extreme habitats challenge animals with highly adverse conditions, like extreme temperatures or toxic substances. In this paper, we report of a fish (Poecilia mexicana) inhabiting a limestone cave in Mexico.
