- Abstract
The article offers information on salmonid fishes. It states that salmonid fishes have become naturalized in austral countries and appear linked to the decline of native fishes, particularly galaxiids. A theoretic approach to explaining the abundance indices(AI) of Galaxias platei revealed a negative association with the AI of salmonids. Introduced salmonids had reproductive failure due to insufficient spawning habitat and harsh environmental conditions.
