Discocilia And Paddle Cilia In The Larvae Of Mulinia Lateralis And Spisula Solidissima (Mollusca: Bivalvia), Bernardita Campos, Roger L. Mann

The bivalve larval velum contains four bands of cilia: inner and outer preoral bands, an adoral band, and a postoral band. The preoral bands of compound cilia are generally considered to be used for both locomotion and food gathering. The adoral and postoral bands function in concert with the preoral bands in food gathering and transfer of food to the mouth. Cilia are usually described as cylindrical structures which taper to a blunt tip. Modified cilia with disc-shaped (discocilia) or pad dle-shaped ends have been recorded in several invertebrate species. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate the presence of …

Fisheries management papers
The 1986/87 Australian catch was about 8,300 tonnes. At present levels of fishing,it has been suggested that this could be substantially increased. The fishery is not in danger of over-exploitation. Rather, the problem could be that there is more fish available than existing markets could absorb. However, there are prospects for increasing the present volume of fish sold domestically and for developing new products and markets in Australia and overseas.

Draft Management Plan For The Perth Metropolitan Purse Seine Fishery, P. Millington
Draft Management Plan For The Perth Metropolitan Purse Seine Fishery, P. Millington
Fisheries management papers
As part of a development strategy for inshore purse seine fishing along the Western Australian coast this plan proposes management measures for the purse seine fishing boats operating along the coast near the greater Perth Metropolitan area. Using as a basis the restricted entry Cockburn sound purse seine fishery, the plan proposes the introduction of a limited entry regime for inshore purse seine fishing between Lancelin to just south of Mandurah. This regime will permit management of the available pelagic fish stocks in the area and also protect the economic position of the existing participants by providing an environment for …
Fishery And Culture Of Selected Bivalves In Mexico: Past, Present And Future, Erik Baqueiro, Michael Castagna
Fishery And Culture Of Selected Bivalves In Mexico: Past, Present And Future, Erik Baqueiro, Michael Castagna
VIMS Articles
This paper reviews the culture of selected bivalves of Mexico. Most species are utilized locally, but there is potential for some exports. The culture and fisheries of bivalves are often hampered by lack of information and restrictive regulations. Pinctada mazatlanica was grown for pearls and pearl shell production in the early 1900s. The methods used for its culture are reviewed. The culture of a few commercial species has shown encouraging results. Over 10,000 kilometers of coastal area with more than 1.5 million hectares of coastal lagoons and bays, plus a subtropical climate, give Mexico a great potential for the development …
Rehabilitation Of The Troubled Oyster Industry Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay, William J. Hargis Jr., Dexter S. Haven
Rehabilitation Of The Troubled Oyster Industry Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay, William J. Hargis Jr., Dexter S. Haven
VIMS Articles
After 1885 Virginia's lower Chesapeake Bay system produced more oysters per year than any other area in the United States and remained predominant until 1960. Since then she has surrendered supremacy as annual harvests of her troubled oyster industry have steadily declined. Numerous factors were responsible for the tremendous productivity of the lower Bay's oyster beds; a number have been involved in its decline. Natural events, such as the catastrophic epizootics of the early 1960's, continuing disease and predation, increased salinities of drought years and great freshets of tropical storms have contributed significantly to the reduction. Pollution and other man-related …

A Mark-Recapture Study Of Striped Bass In The Rappahannock River, Virginia Annual Report 1987-1988, Joseph G. Loesch, Bruce W. Hill, William H. Kreite Jr.
Reports
Internal anchor tags with external tubes were used to tag 3, 319 striped bass in the Fall of 1987 and 2,024 in the Spring of 1988 in the Rappahannock River. The total number tagged was adjusted to 3,170 and 1,973 by removing from consideration all fish that were at large less than a week. The available stock of striped bass in the Spring contained both young resident fish and mature nonresident fish which left the area of capture after spawning, presumably to migrate north in coastal waters. The exodus of the mature fish after spawning was responsible, in part, for …

During the months of June and September 1988, gear experiments were conducted aboard the F/V Carolina Dawn and Carolina Capes. The primary objective of the experiments was to assess the technical efficiency and size selectivity of 3.5-inch ring dredges relative to the current commercially-used 3.0-inch ring dredges. Secondary objectives were to analyze the economic and regulatory ramifications of using 3.5-inch ring dredges to control the age-at-capture and enhance the yield-per- recruit.
Propagation Of Adherent Bacteria On The Brittlestar Ophionereis Annulata (Le Conte) After Enrichment Of Seawater With Amino Acids, Michael A. Rice
Propagation Of Adherent Bacteria On The Brittlestar Ophionereis Annulata (Le Conte) After Enrichment Of Seawater With Amino Acids, Michael A. Rice
Michael A Rice
Epidermal surfaces of the ophiouroid Ophionereis annulata (Le Conte) were examined by scanning electron microscopy. Microvilli, which are characteristic of many transport epithelia, are present on the epidermal surfaces. Epidermal surfaces of freshly-collected brittlestars were compared with brittlestars that were maintained in the laboratory for 48 hours in fresh seawater and in seawater enriched with 20uM glycine. Very few bacteria were observed on the surface of the freshly-collected animals or on animals maintained in the laboratory in fresh seawater. The epidermal surfaces of animals maintained in seawater enriched with 20 uM glycine showed extensive mats of coccoid and bacilloid bacteria. …
