💕 Everyone is getting ready to look beautiful for #ValentinesDay and so are brightly coloured #guppies!
Population geneticist Deborah Charlesworth @EdinburghUni looks closer into colouration mutations accumulating on the Y #chromosome in 🐟

Can anyone help confirm ID of this #Poeciliid? Found in St Anns River, #Trinidad last weekend in pools alongside #guppies (#Poecilia reticulata). #fishsci #fish #freshwater

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 5
#MarineLifeMonday
Most #fish species alive today, from #salmon to #guppies, belong to a single group. In the #Devonian, though, many lineages were abundant. #Quebec's 🇨🇦 #ParcNationalDeMiguasha provides a glimpse of this #biodiversity, which includes #lungfish such as Scaumenacia curta, shown here in the #RoyalOntarioMuseum. Their lobed fins contain many of the same #bones as our arms, evidence that lungfish are much more closely related to us than to most other fish.

Guppies are a classic example of #parallelevolution but are they really so parallel? An analysis of published #guppy papers by @alexisheckley @AllegraPearce4 @photopidge @ecoevoevoeco @KristaOke
shows low extent of parallelism

10,000 (guppy) lifetimes in a single figure.

This plot shows the capture history of 10,000 #guppies in one of our #LongTermEcology study populations in Trinidad, part of #TheGuppyProject
Each of these fish were caught, given a unique identifying tag / ID'd, measured, weighed, photographed, sampled for DNA, then released back where we found them.
