Notes On Fungus Parasites Of Bivalve Molluscs In Chesapeake Bay, Jay D. Andrews
VIMS Articles
My hobby is collecting the mollusks of Chesapeake Bay.. Having placed a few specimens in museums, and having made a check list · (no new species yet) with appended distribution records, I found my hobby less stimulating than rily research .. , But then my research had. taken a turn which opened up new and inviting fields of discovery.
First came a devastating mortality of oysters in the Rappahannock River, for which no explanation has been found. Then Mackin et~ .. l. (']_950) discovered the fungus disease of oysters, Dermocystidium marinum ... But not until Ray (1952) developed the thioglycollate …

The Fishes Of The Tidewater Section Of The Pamunkey River, Virginia, Edward C. Raney, William H. Massman
The Fishes Of The Tidewater Section Of The Pamunkey River, Virginia, Edward C. Raney, William H. Massman
VIMS Articles
The distribution of the fish fauna of the tidewater section of most of the rivers that flow into Chesapeake Bay is poorly known. Indeed, this is true for practically all the great rivers tributary to the Atlantic from the Hudson southward to the Savannah. The few investigations usually have concentrated on commercial species and our understanding of distribution has been inferred from the knowledge of nearby Coastal Plain streams reported in such studies as those by Hildebrand and Schroeder (1928), Fowler (1945), Raney (1950), and Massmann, Ladd, McCutcheon (1952).
In 1949 the junior author began a study of the spawning …

Range And Habitat Of The Clam Polymesoda-Caroliniana (Bosc) In Virginia (Family Cycladidae), Jay D. Andrews, Catherine Cook
Range And Habitat Of The Clam Polymesoda-Caroliniana (Bosc) In Virginia (Family Cycladidae), Jay D. Andrews, Catherine Cook
VIMS Articles
The clam Polymesoda caroliniana (Bosc), which ranges north and eastward in brackish waters from Lavaca Bay, Texas,2 has not pre- viously been reported north of the Neuse River, N. C. (Van der Schalie 1933). On 7 April 1947, Richard Hoffman found several shells on the beach above Swann Point on the James River, a tributary of Chesapeake Bay (Fig. 1). On 20 April 1947, J. P. E. Morrison (personal communication) and Hoffman found living specimens in the mud and detritus around the knees of cypress trees one-half mile above Swann Point. These records are included in this paper through the …
Seasonal Patterns Of Oyster Setting In The James River And Chesapeake Bay, Jay D. Andrews
Seasonal Patterns Of Oyster Setting In The James River And Chesapeake Bay, Jay D. Andrews
VIMS Articles
The James River seedbeds are one of the few oyster-growing areas of the world still operated successfully as a free fishery on natural oyster grounds. It is characteristic of free fisheries that much is taken out and little is put back. For some 50 years, the James River seedbeds have continuously furnished most of the seed- oysters (young oysters) for the planters of Vir- ginia. That they are still productive is strong testimony to the natural fitness of the area for oyster culture. Yet, their survival as seed grounds must be attributed in no small measure to the laws prohibiting …

Report On Chemical Control Of Oyster Drills, 1948 : Summary Of Experiments, Richard L. Hoffman
Report On Chemical Control Of Oyster Drills, 1948 : Summary Of Experiments, Richard L. Hoffman
Reports
During the summer of 1948 the writer was employed at the Virginia Fisheries Laboratory: for the purpose of assisting with routine work in connection with the oyster population studies as well as to devote some time to investigation of the practicability of utilizing chemical repellents in control of the oyster drills (Urosalpinx and Eupleura) . Initial work was carried on to determine tolerance of the young oyster spat to various chemicals, and usually the optimum conditions were determined before introduction of drills.

VIMS Articles
This study of the York River and issues impacting the oyster fishery provides historical information on the river's physical and chemical conditions (temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, currents, etc.) effluent observations, history and data of the oyster fishery, oyster condition, biological and pathological work and experimental studies.
The project studies were responsible for the establishment of a fisheries laboratory in Yorktown, Va.
p. 59 - "Funds for the York River investigations were made available in 1935 by a special allotment from the Public Works Administration. Continuation of the project was made possible by regular allotments by the Bureau of Fisheries …
