Department of Ecology and Evolution, State University of New York, Stony Brook, New York 11794, U.S.A. University of Georgia's, Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, Drawer E, Aiken, South Carolina 29802, U.S.A. Cyprinodontiforms are a diverse group of approximately 900 pantropical and temperate fishes, mostly found in freshwater.
The evolution of bundled sperm, spermatozeugmata, is probably not a prerequisite for internal fertilization because at least one species with internal fertilization has free spermatozoa.

 Gambusia Control Homepage
Where mosquito-borne diseases pose a threat to human health, and native fish are not suitable control agents (such as urban areas in Thailand and Venezuela) stocking water bodies with poeciliids (such as gambusia and guppies Lebistes reticulatus) may be one of the few means of mosquito control.
Cyprinodontiformes is thought to have originated in the Cretaceous Period (Parenti, 1981) and is native to the New and Old Worlds, west of Wallace's line.
(Cyprinodontiformes) are piscivorous annuals, restricted to seasonal pools, in which they may be able to eliminate gambusia refuge populations.

 KILLI-DATA ONLINE - Introduction to Killifish
Progressively, the name has been extended to other groups of related fishes from northern America, Mediterranean countries and finally tropical countries, when aquarists of the twentieth century became passionately interested by these fishes.
Cyprinodontiformes -or shortly Cyprinodonts- are split artificially into oviparous species, properly Killifish (about 740 valid species), and viviparous groups (about 300 valid species), properly livebearers, featuring Guppies, Xiphos, famous aquarium fishes, or the beautiful Goodeids, or Anableps (4 eyed-fish), or Gambusies, (unfortunately) planted all over the world, for mosquito control.
There, he proposes an improved classification of Cyprinodontiformes, based on a personal synthesis of publications and not on his own work.

 Abstract of Sides & Lydeard (2000)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The nuclear gene X-src is a member of the tyrosine-kinase class of proto-oncogenes whose normal product is localized within the cytoplasm of the cell.
The X-src gene has been used in only a few phylogenetic studies, each focusing on systematics of killifishes (Cyprinodontiformes).
The present study is an attempt to examine the phylogenetic utility of X-src for uncovering relationships of representative cichlid fishes, especially the cichlids of Middle America.

 I Ciprinodontiformi, Cyprinodontiformes
Un gruppo di particolari caratteri morfologici - fra cui la mancanza di linea laterale, di dotto pneumatico e di ossa weberiane - stabilisce però una netta distinzione dai Ciprinidi e da molto tempo ha indotto gli ittiologi a porre questi pesci in un particolare ordine variamente denominato: Cyprinodontes (Jordan), Microcyprini (Regan), Cyprinodontiformes (Berg).
Più di recente, furono riconosciute tali affinità con le Aguglie e i Pesci volanti da una parte, con le Aterine dall'altra, che nella classificazone di Greenwood e collaboratori (1966) tutti questi pesci sono riuniti a costituire l'ordine Atheriniformes.
Gli Atherinomorpha, raggruppamento comprendente gli ordini Cyprinodontiformes e Atheriniformes, considerati un tempo separatamente dagli Acantopterigi, sono stati successivamente inseriti in questo superordine.
