Low Predictability of Colour Polymorphism in Introduced Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) Populations in Panama

Colour polymorphism is a recurrent feature of natural populations, and its maintenance has been studied in a range of taxa in their native ranges. However, less is known about whether (and how) colour polymorphism is maintained when populations are removed from their native environments, as in the c...
