Vulnerability of the mosquito larvae to the guppies (Poecilia reticulata) in the presence of alternative preys.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The predatory potential of the larvivorous fishes can be affected by the presence of alternative preys. In the present study the predation pattern of the sewage dwelling Poecilia reticulata (Peters 1872) on the larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus Say 1823 (Diptera: Culicidae) was evaluated in the presence of alternative preys. METHODS The predation of Cx. quinquefasciatus...
متن کاملImplications of guppy (Poecilia reticulata) life‐history phenotype for mosquito control
Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are frequently introduced to both natural and artificial water bodies as a mosquito control. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that guppies can consume large numbers of larval mosquitoes. Our study investigates how intraspecific variability in guppy phenotype affects their importance as a mosquito biocontrol and how habitat conditions (natural ponds vs. water st...
متن کاملSocial networks in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata).
Social network theory is used to elicit details of the social structure of a population of free-ranging guppies, Poecilia reticulata. They were found to have a complex and highly structured social network, which exhibited characteristics consistent with the 'small world' phenomenon. Stable partner associations between individuals were observed, a finding that fulfils the basic prerequisite for ...
متن کاملSystemic Granulomatosis in Guppies Poecilia reticulata
In many guppy Poecilia reticulata farms in the vicinity of Bangkok, diseases have caused longlasting fish death and consequently large cumulative mortality. Diseased guppies were collected and subjected to histopathological analysis. The analysis revealed systemic granulomatosis as a remarkable histological sign. Rod-shaped bacterial cells with strong acid-fastness were found in the granulomas....
متن کاملEvidence for Mate Choice by Male Guppies (Poecilia reticulata)
1985). Female body size is positively correlated both Mate choice by males in organisms that do not make obviously costly contributions to offspring should be expected where sperm production is limited and courtship time is finite. Although male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) contribute only sperm to their offspring, preliminary evidence points to male mate choice in this species. Thus, the hypo...
