Mountain streams in Trinidad host a number of species, with the most common being the familiar guppy Poecilia reticulata and a killifish Rivulus hartii. While killifish and guppies often coexist in downstream reaches, headwater reaches typically host killifish alone, as waterfalls restrict the upstream movement of guppies. Under these conditions the densities of killifish average two to three times greater than when guppies are also present. Given that previous work has mostly depicted killifish as predators of guppies, the negative effect of guppies on killifish densities required additional explanation. Laboratory trials showed that the predatory relationship reverses when size is considered; adult guppies can consume hatchling killifish. To test the potential impact of guppy predation in more natural conditions, we conducted field introductions and mesocosm studies to identify the relative contributions of predation and competition to the interaction. Results from both studies were inconsistent with competition being the sole interaction, and supported predation by guppies as a key contributor to the reduction in killifish density when guppies are present. We suggest that this study demonstrates how an invader's ability to consume its predator can facilitate the initial stages of its invasion into potentially hostile habitat. Fourth-order Guanapo River, Trinidad. Guppies were introduced into four tributaries upstream of this location. Photo: Doug Fraser.
