Metabolism, movement behaviour, and salinity responses of invasive mosquitofish compared with a threatened toothcarp
The success and impact of invasive non-native species depend on how they cope with local abiotic conditions, especially in comparison to co-occurring native taxa. In aquatic systems, salinity serves a...
