Abstract
Summary Gymnocharacinus bergi (Pisces, Characidae), an endemic fish in the headwaters of the Valcheta stream in northern Patagonia, displays a fright reaction. As this species inhabits a rapid stream, we hypothesized that the alarm reaction might be socially transmitted through visual information, because the detection of alarm pheromone would be restricted to those fish located downstream from the releaser. Alarm substances elicited a decrease in the swimming activity and a tendency to remain at the bottom of the aquarium. Individuals that observed the fright reaction, but were not exposed to the pheromone, spent significantly more time at the bottom of the aquarium imitating the alarm response, and tended to approach the others. Gregarious behaviour was observed; however, interactions (number of approaches) were stronger between those fish held prior to testing in the same aquarium; smaller fish in particular tended to get closer to bigger ones. Greater group cohesion was found between individuals that were exposed to the alarm pheromone.
