Intraspecific resource partitioning by an opportunistic strategist, inland silverside Menidia beryllina

An evaluation of the mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis, and the inland silverside, Menidia beryllina, as mosquito control agents in California wild rice fields.

The mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis, and the inland silverside, Menidia beryllina, were evaluated in experimental, one-tenth hectare wild rice plots in Lake County, California, for their impact on densities of Culex tarsalis, Anopheles freeborni and Anopheles franciscanus. Gambusia affinis were tested at 0.6 and 1.7 kg/ha and the silversides at ca. 0.9 kg/ha. The silversides did not survive well...

Effects of Artificial Lighting and Presence of Menidia Beryllina on Growth and Diet of Labidesthes Sicculus

Two atherinid species, Labidesthes sicculus (brook silverside) and Menidia beryllina (inland silverside), often co-occur in North American reservoirs. Menidia beryllina is a superior competitor for zooplankton and has displaced Labidesthes in a number of reservoir habitats. In Lake Texoma (Oklahoma-Texas), Labidesthes was thought extirpated from the reservoir after introduction of Menidia in th...

Acute effects of Permanone 31-66 (permethrin-piperonyl butoxide) on nontarget minnows and grass shrimp.

Immature sheepshead minnows (Cyprinodon variegatus), inland silversides (Menidia beryllina), mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki), and grass shrimp (Palaemonetes pugio) were exposed to the mosquito adulticide, Permanone 31-66, in a series of static toxicity tests conducted in the laboratory. At 24 h, in order of decreasing susceptibility, LC50 values were 0.843, 4.07, 5.46, and 6.04 ppb for grass ...
