摘要

An endemic freshwater fish, Varicorhinus alticorpus, was studied from 1990 to 1993 in a fast flowing mountain stream in southern Taiwan (22 deg 30 min N, 120 deg 30 min E). The analysis of environmental conditions suggested that the fish could tolerate water temperatures between 19-24 deg C, a pH of 8.0-8.8, and flow velocity from 20-100 cm sec~(-1). The fish occupied riffles and pools. They foraged and schooled during daytime and aggregated in crevices between rocks at night. Most juveniles stayed at the shallow sandy-pebble flat by the pool where flow was slow. The species feed primarily on the periphyton growing on the rocks, and leave unique scars after grazing. One peak of juvenile recruitment was observed right after the rainy season, suggesting that reproduction of the fish has adapted to the climate. The change of abundance of adults along the habitats (at 150 to 800 m altitude) also indicated that the fish might migrate to low altitudes for spawning and disperse back to higher altitudes for exploiting new resources. The environmental biology of this fish shows an example of a cyprinid adapted to habitats in a subtropical mountain stream.
