Visiting intern studies Bermuda's Killifish

"Did you know that one of Bermuda's precious endemics is the Killifish (Fundulus bermudae)? If you've never seen this little fellow, go look in the mini-tank section in the Mangrove aquarium and you can observe him.

"He is about two and a half inches long, with a low dorsal fin, light brown to pale greenish yellow, darker on the ventral surface.

" He also sports dark, indistinct greenish-brown bands on his sides. He usually frequents fresh to brackish water ponds, particularly those fringed with mangroves.

"One of our visiting interns is doing a study on this species this summer which is revealing much new and fascinating information. Stay tuned.'' TOURISM TOU
