Abstract excerpt
Times-to-death (TTD) of mother and offspring mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) were examined during acute exposure to mercury concentrations of approximately 1.0 mg/L. Median TTD were more similar for fish sharing a common mother (defined herein as a sibship) and microhabitat during maturation than between sibships. Field populations may exhibit structure similar to that of these sibships. Correlations between...
