Optimum level of dietary biotin for growth, feed utilization, and swimming stamina of fingerling lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush)
H. A. Poston
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 1803-1806
Triplicate lots of fingerling lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) held at 9 C for 20 wk were fed a semipurified basal diet supplemented with 1% spray-dried egg white or d-biotin at concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, or 5.0 ppm. Trout fed the basal diet, either alone or with egg white, grew more slowly and...
Duck nesting in fields of undisturbed grass-legume cover
Harold F. Duebbert, J. T. Lokemoen
1976, Journal of Wildlife Management (40) 39-49
A study of dabbling duck (Anatinae) nesting was conducted during 1971-73 on nine 12- to 54-ha Cropland Adjustment Program fields in the prairie pothole region of north-central South Dakota. The tall, dense vegetation was comprised of introduced cool-season grasses and legumes, primarily smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis), intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium),...
An acute septicaemic disease of brown trout (Salmo trutta) and Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) caused by a Pasteurella-like organism
T. Hastein, G. L. Bullock
1976, Journal of Fish Biology (8) 23-26
Ulcerations of the skin associated with haemorrhagic petechiae of liver and kidneys, were the main signs of disease affecting salmon and brown trout in Norway. A death rate of 15–20% was estimated for the 5 month period of mid-March-August, although mortalities occurred throughout the year. Bacteriological examinations, involving 36 isolates,...
Infection and mortality in captive wild-trapped canvasback ducks
R. M. Kocan, Matthew C. Perry
1976, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (12) 30-33
Fungal, bacterial and malarial infections, as well as malnutrition caused heavy mortality in a group of wild-trapped canvasbacks (Aythya valisineria) held in 10 × 3 × 2 m open water pens. Deaths occurred between 21 and 158 days after confinement and were associated...

Fine structure of an unidentified protozoon in the epithelium of rainbow trout exposed to water with Myxosoma cerebralis
S.B. Daniels, R. L. Herman, C.N. Burke
1976, Journal of Protozoology (23) 402-410
An intracellular protozoon was discovered in the epithelium of young rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) exposed for as short a time as 1 hr to water known to contain infective stages of Myxosoma cerebralis. Light- and electron-microscopic examination of this tissue revealed what appeared to be a proliferative stage (presumptive schizont) of a...

Utilization of satellite data for inventorying prairie ponds and lakes
E.A. Work, D.S. Gilmer
1976, Photogrammetric Engineering and Remote Sensing (42) 685-694
By using data acquired by LANDSAT-1 (formerly ERTS- 1), studies were conducted in extracting information necessary for formulating management decisions relating to migratory waterfowl. Management decisions are based in part on an assessment ofhabitat characteristics, specifically numbers, distribution, and quality of ponds and lakes in the prime breeding range. This...
An outbreak of erysipelas in eared grebes (Podiceps nigricollis)
Wayne I. Jensen, Sally E. Cotter
1976, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (12) 583-586
An outbreak of erysipelas killed an estimated 5,000 aquatic birds on Great Salt Lake (Utah) in late November, 1975. Although several thousand ducks and gulls were using the lake, at least 99 percent of the victims were eared grebes. A hypothetical explanation for the selective mortality is offered....
Female homogamety in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) determined by gynogenesis
Jon G. Stanley
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 1372-1374
Gynogenesis occurred in eggs of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) treated with X-irradiated milt from goldfish (Carassius auratus). Gynogenetic offspring were females, which indicates functional female homogamety in grass carp. Five of these gynogenetic fish were used as an egg source for a second generation of artificially gynogenetic fish. The percentage...
Feeding ecology of breeding gadwalls on saline wetlands
J.R. Serie, G.A. Swanson
1976, Journal of Wildlife Management (40) 69-81
The feeding ecology of breeding gadwalls (Anas strepera) from saline wetlands in North Dakota was examined in relation to sex, pair mates, reproductive status, food availability, and wetland type during the spring and summer of 1971 and 1972. Esophagi of males and females contained 40.4 and 48.2 percent animal food,...

Upland sandpiper nesting and management in North Dakota
L.M. Kirsch, K.F. Higgins
1976, Wildlife Society Bulletin (4) 16-20
Nests of 195 upland sandpipers (Bartramia longicauda) on the Missouri Coteau of North Dakota generally were well concealed by grassy vegetation which ranged from 15.4-30.8 cm in height. Nest densities ranged from 0.3 per 40.5 ha on annually tilled croplands to 6.8 per 40.5 ha on native grasslands during the...

Antimycin: Uptake, distribution, and elimination in brown bullheads (Ictalurus nebulosus)
D.P. Schultz, P.D. Harman
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 1121-1129
Radioactive antimycin was readily taken up in bile and tissues of brown bullheads (Ictalurus nebulosus) exposed to 0.045 μg/ml of 14C-antimycin for as long as 48 h. Bile contained the most and blood the least radioactivity at all sampling periods. The highest concentration of 14C-antimycin in muscle was 0.12 μg/g, after 12 h of exposure. The...
A relationship between avian carcasses and living invertebrates in the epizootiology of avian botulism
Ruth M. Duncan, Wayne I. Jensen
1976, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (12) 116-126
A survey of the sources of Clostridium botulinum type C toxin possibly utilized as food by aquatic birds in an epizootic area of avian botulism in northern Utah showed that living aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates normally found in close association with dead, decomposing birds commonly carried the toxin. Of 461 samples associated...
Morphology of androgenetic and gynogenetic grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella (Valenciennes)
J.C. Stanley, D.E. Schultz
1976, Journal of Fish Biology (9) 523-528
Crosses between female carp x male grass carp resulted in androgenetic grass carp and hybrids. Fertilizing grass carp eggs with carp milt that had been irradiated with ultraviolet light for 15 min at 1.0 mW/cm2 produced gynogenetic grass carp. We compared the morphology of experimental progeny with that of the parental...

Methods for capturing and marking howler monkeys for ecological studies are discussed. Systems for capturing and handling animals are compared. A dart with liquid Sernylan for capture and Sernylan or Ketamine as a holding drug was preferred to darts using powdered succinylcholine chloride (SCC) and ether. The effectiveness of both...

Avian botulism epizootiology on sewage oxidation ponds in Utah
Daniel W. Moulton, Wayne I. Jensen, Sondra K. Stewart
1976, Journal of Wildlife Management (40) 735-742
In the microenvironment concept of avian botulism epizootiology, it is hypothesized that invertebrate carcasses may serve both as a substrate for toxin production by Clostridium botulinum type C and as a vehicle for toxin transmission to water birds. We field-tested that hypothesis by attempting to induce botulism in wing-clipped mallard...
