Gambusia 응 Gambusia is a large genus of viviparous fish in the family Poecilidae (order Cyprinodontiformes). Gambusia contains over 40 species, most of which are principally found in freshwater habitats, though some species may also be found in brackish or saltwater habitats. Mosquito fishes (Gambusia spp.), so called for their ability to eat numerous mosquito larvae, actually often eat other Diptera, especially adults fallen to the water surface.
