The present study will attempt to reconstruct the                       phylogenetic history of the genus Fundulus, a group of about 35                 species of freshwater and brackish water fishes, commonly known                 as killifishes or topminnows, using genetic similarities                        determined from starch gel electrophoresis of enzymes.  This is                 an ideal group of species for studies for this sort, because the                number of species is large enough to provide interesting results,               permit thorough examination of the variety of geographical areas                and ecological habitats occupied, and to utilize information from               disparate types of studies to interpret patterns and processes of               evolution.  The results of the study will be useful to many                     biologists since killifishes have been used extensively as                      experimental animals for many kinds of biological research.
