Euryhaline - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Euryhaline organisms are able to adapt to a wide range of salinities. An example of a euryhaline fish is the molly ( Poecilia sp.) which can live in fresh, brackish, or salt water. The European sho...

OSMOREGULATION, RED DRUM, AND EURYHALINE FISH: ENVIRONMENTAL PHYSIOLOGY ... Euryhaline fishes are subject to both effects during their lifetimes. Marine and freshwater fish have different types of kidney functions and structures in order to accommodate these dif­ferences.

Fish that can tolerate a wide range of salinity at some phase in their life-cycle are called euryhaline species. These fish, which include salmon, eels, red drum, striped bass and flounder, ... A period of gradual adjustment or acclimation, though, may be needed for euryhaline fish to tolerate large changes in salinity.

It was concluded that the tolerance of the olfactory receptors for large changes in osmotic pressure is not acquired while fish are maintained in fresh or sea water, but that the receptors of these euryhaline fish naturally provide the tolerance.

Now, I have a new word to describe this phenomenon, "euryhaline" fish ! Just last week, I mixed salt into a twenty gallon tank to bring the salinity to the 1.014 specific gravity mark on my hydrometer, so that I could house some brackish water species in this new setup.

Two types of chloride cells were identified in the gill epithelium of freshwater-adapted guppies. One type, referred to as an "alpha-chloride cell," was a pale, elongated cell located at the base of the secondary lamella in close contact with the arterioarterial pillar capillaries. ... In its cytoplasm, ... A second type,

Our goal was to evaluate the energy requirement for osmoregulation by the euryhaline fish Fundulus heteroclitus, to determine whether it is of sufficient magnitude to favor behavioral osmoregulation.
