Notophthalmus I put the 'snork' in 'snorkeling'! Mar 4, 2008 1,977 0 0 Tennessee Oct 20, 2009 #15 Hybridization is extremely unlikely. Despite their similar appearances, Gambusia and Poecilia are not that closely related within Poeciliidae. Also, they have different chromosome numbers (2n=48 in Gambusia, 46 in guppy/Endler).
