Compliance with ethical standards
:
: The experimental procedure was authorized by the Natural Environment and Biodiversity Division at the Catalan Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (Num. DAAM 8289). Fish capture and maintenance were approved by the Committee for an Ethical Use of Experimental Animals at the University of Barcelona (Num. 193/15). Lab experimentation with endangered <i>Aphanius iberus</i> stocks for ex situ conservation purposes was compensated by returning the experimental individuals and the newborn hatchlings born in the lab to wildlife.
