Occurrence of the fish Girardinichthys viviparus (Cyprinodontiformes: Goodeidae) in an urban lake at Mexico City
A population of the Chapultepec splitfin Girardinichthys viviparus was found in the urban Lake Alameda Oriente. Biometry data for females and males are presented for first time for this population. The main causes of risk reported for this species in the aquatic system are water depletion and habitat alteration by treated wastewater used to keep the water level in the lake.KEYWORDSFreshwater, urban lake, threatened species, fish

Se incluye información sobre la biometría de hembras y machos por primera vez para este lago urbano de la ciudad de México. Las principales causas de riesgo reportadas para esta especie en este cuerpo de agua son la disminución del volumen de agua y la alteración de hábitat por el uso de aguas de desechos tratadas con el fin de mantener el nivel de agua del lago.PALABRAS CLAVEAgua dulce, lago urbano, especie amenazada, peces Universidad Estatal a Distancia, Costa Rica 2013-05-20 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/191 10.22458/urj.v5i1.191 UNED Research Journal; Vol. 5 No. 1 (2013); 89-95 UNED Research Journal; Vol. 5 Núm. 1 (2013); 89-95 1659-441X 1659-4266 eng https://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/191/117 |
