“…A great deal of basic information has been accumulated on life-history variation in this group (e.g., Bellamy 1924, Constantz 1979, Endler 1980, Farr 1980, Reznick 1983, Stearns 1983, Trendall 1982. In particular, Reznick & Endler (1982) investigated differences in life-history characteristics among sets of natural populations of Trinidad guppies, Poecilia reticulata, exposed to differing types and intensities of predation.…”
