NATURAL ENEMIES 461 found very eflBcient as a destroyer of mosquito larvae and has been extensively introduced into various parts of the tropics from its home in Barbados and other West Indian Islands. Except where other fish are present to prey upon it, this tiny. Fig. 208. Some good natural enemies of mosquitoes; A, common killifish, Fundulus heteroclitus, of great value in brackish marshes; B, fresh-water killifish, Fundulus diaphanus, valuable in fresh-water streams and ponds, f nat. size. (After Jordan and Evermann.) fish usually thrives wherever introduced, and carries with it a noticeable diminution in mosquitoes. Other species of the same family occur in various parts of the world and are almost in- variably deadly enemies of mosquito larvae. Other natural enemies of the larvae besides fish might well be encouraged in ponds or reservoirs. The western newt or water- dog, Notophthalmus (or Diemyctylus) torosus, which is abundant all along the Pacific Coast of the United States, has been observed to feed very largely on larvae. In Oregon the author has ob- served grassy pools, which were otherwise ideal breeding places for mosquitoes but which contained numerous water-dogs, ab- solutely free of larvae, whereas other pools not a quarter of a mile distant in which no newts were found were swarming with larvae and pupae. Recent experiments by the author, not yet published, have demonstrated conclusively that this salamander can be utihzed successfully to keep mosquito larvae out of such receptacles as rain barrels, troughs, etc..
