Verdel K. Dawson, Joe B. Sills, Charles W. Luhning
1982, Investigations in Fish Control 90
Residues of the 2-aminoethanol salt of 2',5-dichloro-4'-nitrosalicylanilide (Bayer 73), as determined by gas-liquid chromatography, were rapidly accumulated by fish exposed to the lampricide -in blood plasma, gallbladder bile, and muscle tissue of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri), and in bile and muscle of channel catfish (Ictalurus...
Changes in vegetation structure in seeded nesting cover in the prairie pothole region
K.F. Higgins, W.T. Barker
1982, Special Scientific Report - Wildlife 242
A sample of 365 stands of seeded nesting cover (mixtures of cool-season grasses and legumes) was studied in the glaciated prairie pothole region during 1977-79. Measurements of species composition, canopy cover, plant height, and visual obstruction values differed with stand age but only in a general way when results from...

Case report: lead poisoning in common loons (Gavia immer)
Louis N. Locke, Stephen M. Kerr, D. Zoromski
1982, Avian Diseases (26) 392-396
Two emaciated common loons (Gavia immer) were believed to have died of lead poisoning when fragments of fishing lines and lead sinkers were discovered in their stomachs. Later a third emaciated loon, which had only the remnants of fishing line in its stomach, was suspected of being a possible lead-poisoning...
Amino acid nutrition of fishes: requirements and supplementation of diets

The purpose of this paper is: (1) to make a concise review of the published dietary requirements of fishes for amino acids, (2) to describe recent findings at the Tunison Laboratory concerning amino acid nutrition of trout, (3) to review specific signs of deficiency of amino acids, and (4) to...
Evaluation of the river die-away biodegradation test
Glenn D. Wylie, John R. Jones, B. Thomas Johnson
1982, Journal of the Water Pollution Control Federation (54) 1231-1236
The reliability of the river die-away (RDA) test for establishing the biodegradability of chemicals was assessed. Reproducibility of biodegradation in the RDA test was analyzed under conditions in which the test is commonly done. Biodegradation results were not reproducible for di-2-ethylexyl phthalate (DEHP) and phthalic acid in replicated RDA tests...

1982, Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (28) 319-321
In April 1980, a Cooper's hawk (Accipiter cooperii) was found on the ground in Lakewood, Colorado, unable to fly and in convulsion. The bird died shortly thereafter. The hawk was packed in dry ice and shipped air express to the Fish and Wildlife Service, U. S. Department of the Interior,...
A population model of the lizard Uta stansburiana, in southern Nevada
Frederick B. Turner, Phil A. Medica, K. W. Bridges, R. I. Jennrich
1982, Ecological Monographs (52) 243-259
Population densities, reproduction, and survival of the lizard Uta stansburiana were measured at the Nevada Test Site in southern Nevada, USA, between 1964 and 1974. These data were used to develop a model of the population dynamics of this species. Results of irrigation experiments in 0.4—ha enclosures near Mercury, Nevada,...
A review of pond zooplankton production and fertilization for the culture of larval and fingerling striped bass
J. G. Geiger
1982, Aquaculture (35) 353-369
Successful culture of the planktivorous fry of warmwater fish species such as striped bass (Morone saxatilis) depends heavily upon the composition and density of zooplankton established in rearing ponds during the 4–6-week culture period. The paper reviews the growth, reproduction, and...

The Crater District of Haleakala National Park was surveyed for ants. Three species were found. Argentine ants (Iridomyrmex humilis) occurred only within I km of the park headquarters and the nearby research facility. Hypoponera opaciceps was found in small numbers throughout the Crater District. Cardiocondyla emeryi was present only at...
Survival, growth, and catchability of rainbow trout of four strains
J.L. Brauhn, H. Kincaid
1982, North American Journal of Fisheries Management (2) 1-10
Fingerling rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) of genetically different strains survived, grew, and were caught at different rates by anglers and in gill nets after release from a hatchery into a 1‐hectare pond. When two domestic strains were compared, more fish of the strain genetically selected for fast growth were caught...

The nomenclatural enigma of single versus double -i endings for scientific patronyms emended to represent a man's name: A comment and some considerations
M.R. Jennings
1982, Fisheries (7) 9-10
The current inconsistency over the use of single vs. double -i endings for singular masculine scientific patronyms in official lists of scientific names of fishes causes needless confusion and labor. Taxonomists once preferred rules for Latinization calling for double -i endings, but current rules suggest single -i endings. Recent rulings by the International Commission of Zoological...
