The Phylum Chaetognatha : A Bibliography, Grant C. George

Reports

This bibliography has resulted from an initial suggestion by Sargay Timofeev in the March 1990 newsletter of The Chaetognath Group, whose coordinator (Helga Kapp) further suggested that I be given the task. Both are forgiven. The eventual size of the task was unsuspected at its beginning in the fall of 1990; bibliographies are easily begun but decisions on their limits and conclusion are difficult. I have attempted to include all major and substantive works on the Chaetognatha. The inevitable omissions are inadvertent, although a recognized deficiency of the work lies in an incomplete listing of Russian references; I have included …

Life Cycle Studies Of Perkinsus Marinus : Host Specificity : Final Report, Frank O. Perkins

Reports

This project was initiated because it is important to know whether molluscs other than Crassostrea virginica can serve as reservoirs of infection of C. virginica by Perkinsus marinus or other species of Perkinsus when one is designing strategies to culture the oysters in waters where the disease organism is present.

Includes atlas of Perkinsus spp. structure.

Fish Assemblages At A Deep-Water Sewage Disposal Site (Dwd-106) : A Final Contract Report, J. A. Musick, J. C. Defosse, E. D. Grogan

Reports

Deep-water dumpsite 106 is located over the continental slope and rise about 106 miles east of New Jersey (Fig. 1). From March 1986 to July 1992 approximately eight million wet metric tons of sewage sludge were disposed there per year (Robertson and Redford, 1992). Because of the potential impact of this dumping on deep-sea ecosystems, NOAA/NMFS contracted the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, College of William and Mary (VIMS) to make otter-trawl collections in and around DWD 106 in 1990 and 1991. Specific objectives of these collections were:

1. To sample the demersal megafauna, especially fishes;

2. To provide frozen …
