TI  - Trade-offs between salinity preference and antipredator behaviour in the 
      euryhaline sailfin molly Poecilia latipinna.

AB  - Salinity preference and responses to predatory chemical cues were examined both 
      separately and simultaneously in freshwater (FW) and saltwater (SW)-acclimated 
      sailfin mollies Poecilia latipinna, a euryhaline species. It was hypothesized 
      that P. latipinna would prefer FW over SW, move away from chemical cues from a 
      crayfish predator, and favour predator avoidance over osmoregulation when 
      presented with both demands. Both FW and SW-acclimated P. latipinna preferred FW 
      and actively avoided predator cues. When presented with FW plus predator cues v. 
      SW with no cues, P. latipinna were more often found in FW plus predator cues. 
      These results raise questions pertaining to the potential osmoregulatory stress 
      of salinity transitions in euryhaline fishes relative to the potential fitness 
      benefits and whether euryhalinity is utilized for predator avoidance. This study 
      sheds light on the potential benefits and consequences of being salt tolerant or 
      intolerant and complicates the understanding of the selection pressures that have 
      favoured the different osmoregulatory mechanisms among fishes.
