Fluoxetine (Prozac™) is designed to alter human behaviour; however, because many physiological pathways are conserved across vertebrates, this drug may affect the behaviour of fish living in fluoxetine-polluted environments. Although a number of studies have used behaviour to document the sub-lethal effects of fluoxetine, the repeatability of these effects across experiments, across behavioural...

Few studies have systematically investigated mid- or long-term temporal changes of biological characteristics in invasive alien species considering the different phases of an invasion. We studied the invasion performance of one of the most invasive species worldwide, the round goby Neogobius melanostomus, from total absence over first occurrence until establishment from 2010 to 2015 in the uppe...

rural plain areas of India, where Anopheles culicifacies Giles (Diptera: Culicidae) is the primary malaria vector species. This species is responsible for about 60–65% of all reported malaria cases in India1 that breeds in irrigation channels, ponds, pools and rice fields. Anopheles fluviatilis James, is another important vector of malaria in India, which is found specifically in foothills and ...

The tritrophic interaction Argia insipida Hagen in Selys, the Trichogrammatidae egg parasitoid Pseudoligosita longifrangiata (Viggiani) and the host plant Tonina fluviatilis (Eriocaulacea), which is a substrate for egg deposition of A.insipid, was investigated. The study locality was a stream with rapids where macrophytes such as T. fluviatilis grow. Information on aquatic egg parasitoids is sc...

Total length, body mass and gut content mass of young-of-the-year (YOY) perch Perca fluviatilis, dace Leuciscus leuciscus and bleak Alburnus alburnus were recorded over the summer of 2006 at three littoral sites at Upper Lake Constance. In P. fluviatilis and L. leuciscus, gut content mass correlated positively with wave-induced energy flux (E(F)) of the respective site and sampling day, while n...

Intraguild predation interactions make fish communities prone to exhibit alternative stable states with either piscivore or prey fish dominance. In the Baltic Sea, local declines of coastal piscivores like perch (Perca fluviatilis) have been observed to coincide with high densities of sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus). Mechanisms behind this shift between piscivore and stickleback dominance...

considering its gobiidea and feeding fish sturgeon caspian sea highest main and the need to fecundity this fish, this study was done in babolroud and tajan rivers in mazandaran. in order to conduct the study, 197 sand goby we were caught using an electros choker machine (v300-200) in the spring of 1390 ,which was the spawning season, at the tajan river (sari) and babolrood (babol). 103 fish whi...
