Comments: The guppy, Poecilia reticulata, is primarily a freshwater fish though it can tolerate low to moderate<br />

salinities. It has been introduced throughout the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indo-Pacific. However, many of the introductions<br />

may be in inland waters so that the invasion pattern shown here may overestimate the invasion of coastal systems.<br />
