  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Oxytetracycline (OTC) immersion was used to identify black-nosed crappies, a morphological variation of black crappie &lt;i&gt;Pomoxis nigromaculatus&lt;/i&gt;, stocked into Normandy Reservoir, Tennessee, during fall 1997. The technique effectively marked 97% of the treated fish. Analysis of one otolith per fish by one reader successfully identified 98% of marked and unmarked fish in a blind test. Marks were formed before annulus formation and were not obscured by annulus-related autofluorescence, suggesting that OTC can be effectively used late in the year (Oct and Nov) in Tennessee.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
