quarter and one - half the length of the palatine process ( fig . 22e ) . in ventral view , about three - quarters of the way from anterior to posterior , the pterygoid curves and bends laterally toward the otic region . in lateral view the element shows a dorsally convex arch , sloping upward from the lowest position at the posterior end to the highest point at the anterior end . the posterior tip of the pterygoid is spatulate in u . woodmasoni .", "in dorsolateral view , the wide , anterior portion of the palatine extends laterally only to the lacrimal duct , falling short of the terminus of the maxillary process of the prefrontal . in addition to the tiny foramen visible in this view in u . woodmasoni , a second foramen is located at the posterior extent of the contact with the maxilla , near the base of the pterygoid process . when viewed laterally , the tapering of the pterygoid process and the end of contact with the frontal occur anterior to the optic foramen , farther anteriorly than in u . woodmasoni . the clasping articulation of the pterygoid process of the palatine with the palatine process of the pterygoid is depicted in figure 17b .", "the dentary has a much more sharply pointed posterior tip than that of u . woodmasoni , and the teeth end posteriorly at the splenial - angular suture . the groove for meckel ' s cartilage is open in anterior view , and this creates a medial , trochlea - like expansion of the anterior tip of the dentary . eight teeth are present .", "the coronoid process of the compound bone is broad , and somewhat triangular . a foramen pierces the medial surface of the retroarticular process , but none occurs ventral to the coronoid process . the retroarticular process is like that of u . woodmasoni , and both the dorsal portion of the process and the anterior rim of the socket for the quadrate constrict the cotyle .", "in ventral view the anterior edge of the vomer has a short , ventral premaxillary process with a shallow , lateral indentation and farther laterally a tiny , pointed projection that juts between the premaxilla and septomaxilla ( figs . 4b ; 17b ) . the anterior margin of the anterolateral process is posterior to that projection . compared to u . woodmasoni , the anterolateral process is expanded and has a squared appearance . the anterolateral process of the vomer and the anteromedial process of the maxilla do not touch but both are in contact with the overlying septomaxilla . within the vomeronasal opening , a thin bar of bone separates the smaller , medial half from the lateral half . as in u . woodmasoni , u . rubromaculata has a long , thin palatine process .", "as in u . woodmasoni , the maxilla and ectopterygoid of u . rubromaculata have a long mediolateral contact , with the maxilla lateral to the ectopterygoid . however , in u . rubromaculata the posterior rim of the posteriormost tooth position coincides with the beginning of the contact with the ectopterygoid . in ventral view , the palatine process is broader , larger , and more rounded medially than in u . woodmasoni ( fig . 4b ) . the maxilla and vomer do not contact in palatal view . the teeth are much larger and fewer in number than in any other taxon examined ( six positions on the left , five on the right ) . our tooth count is consistent with a previous report of five maxillary teeth in u . rubromaculata [ 15 ] .", "the supraorbital processes are robust and similar to those of u . woodmasoni , but the sagittal crest is stronger and terminates anteriorly at a triangular , roughened , shallow depression . there is only a small posterior notch along the midline . in lateral view , the majority of the cn v 2 foramen is in the braincase , and the parietal completes only the anterior - most portion .", "the prefrontal is not as anteroposteriorly shortened as in r . blythii , nor is it as round as in u . woodmasoni ( fig . 8b ) . in this specimen ( tmm m - 10046 ) the prefrontal and parietal closely approach , but do not actually contact , one another . the rounded inflection of the anterodorsal margin is located at the junction with the nasal and septomaxilla .", "the frontals are proportionately wider and shorter than in the uropeltis specimens . the contacts in the articulated skull are the same , although sharper and more angled than in r . blythii . in dorsal exposure , a small , pointed process appears to jut into the junction of the frontal with the prefrontal and supraorbital process of the parietal and may occur because the prefrontal and supraorbital process are in contact . a similar , but narrower , surface extends into the junction between frontal , nasal , and prefrontal . the crista trabecularis ends at the frontal - parietal suture .", "the basioccipital and basisphenoid are fused in all of our adult specimens , although previously those bones were reported to remain separate [ 17 ] . thus , this species exhibits the same degree of fusion found in rhinophis and uropeltis . dorsally , no sagittal crest occurs in the supraoccipital region . the canals piercing that area are more medially positioned than they are in species of uropeltis and rhinophis and open posteriorly inside the dorsal margin of the foramen magnum . the occipital condyle is short , lacking any solid neck between the triangular trough leading into the braincase and the actual condyle , and there is no posterior fovea as exhibited by uropeltis and rhinophis ( figs . 5c , 27 ) . the number of hypoglossal openings varies individually in b . rhodogaster . in tmm m - 10019 , tmm m - 10027 , and tmm m - 10022 there are two on the right and one on the left , whereas in tmm m - 10016 , tmm m - 10023 , and tmm m - 10020 there are two on the left and one on the right . in tmm m - 10013 , tmm m - 10017 , tmm m - 10018 , tmm m - 10024 , and tmm m - 10014 the opening is single on both sides , and in tmm m - 10015 , tmm m - 10026 , and tmm m - 10020 it is paired on both sides . when paired , one opening is located dorsal to the other , and the more dorsal opening is smaller . an exception occurs in specimen tmm m - 10011 , in which the opening is single on the right , but on the left it appears to be paired as a result of a deep division of one large foramen .", "the supraorbital processes are straight and slender , with little tapering and a shorter length relative to the other species we examined ( fig . 8a ) . dorsally the sagittal crest is stronger than in the three uropeltis species examined and ends anteriorly at a weakly depressed , roughened , irregular spot . the two lobes of the shelf dorsal to the otic region are relatively short , and there is a small , squared notch at the posterior midline . in lateral view the cn v 2 opening is almost entirely within the braincase , but a small portion of the parietal completes its anterior edge .", "anterior is to the left unless noted ; scale bars = 0 . 5 mm . a from u . woodmasoni ( tmm m -

quarter of the way from the anterior end of the bone . a distinct bend with a roughly square flange or extension is placed at the point where the posterior tip curves upward toward the otic region . this occurs three - quarters of the way down the bone , moving from anterior to posterior .", "the nasals are more rectangular than in species referred to either uropeltis or rhinophis . tapering occurs only at the anteromedial tip and is visible only in dorsal view ( figs . 5c , 12g ) . the overall appearance is of a rectangular bone with an anterolateral notch . the nasal process of the premaxilla is exposed in the narrow space between the anterior ends of the nasals . in lateral view , the nasal shares an elongated contact with the septomaxilla ; no dorsal emargination is present , but the posterior margin of the external naris excavates a shallow notch in the anterior surface of the nasal ( figs . 2c , 12h ) .", "the ventral premaxillary process is small and rounded , abuts the vomerine process of the premaxilla , and possesses a shallow indentation laterally ( figs . 7b ; 18b ) . the anterolateral process is squared and meets the anteromedial process of the maxilla . the anterior projection of the posterolateral process forms much more of the vomeronasal opening than in any other species examined . the small , pointed process that projects into the vomeronasal opening originates dorsal to the ventral surface , rather than at it as in the three species of uropeltis , and r . blythii . dorsally , the vomer has a strong medial inflection . the palatine process is not elongate .", "the posterior part of the transverse process of the premaxilla slots into the space between the anteromedial process and the anterior tip of the maxilla ( fig . 3i ) , forming a clasping articulation between the two elements . in palatal view , the entire anterior surface of the anteromedial process forms a firm articulation with the transverse process of the premaxilla ( unlike in u . woodmasoni , in which only a small lateral portion of the anterior surface contacts the premaxilla ) .", "the dentary is similar to that of u . woodmasoni , except in the case of the teeth , which extend farther posteriorly ; two full sockets are located posterior to the angular - splenial suture . eight teeth occur on the dentary ; like the maxillary teeth , they are enlarged relative to those of other taxa examined ( fig . 2b ) . our tooth count is higher than a previous report of six or seven dentary teeth occurring in specimens of u . rubromaculata [ 15 ] .", "the contact of the prefrontal with the nasal in lateral view is longer than in u . woodmasoni , and the inflection in the shape of the anterodorsal margin occurs ventral to the junction with the nasal and septomaxilla . as in u . melanogaster , the lateral surface appears anteroposteriorly compressed , and overall the bone is taller than it is long ( fig . 8a ) . the frontal process is much larger than the lateral foot process , but does not contact the supraorbital process of the parietal .", "in lateral view , the entire dorsal margin of the compound bone is arched from the posterior extent of the dentary articulation to just anterior to the articulation with the quadrate , forming a large , broad , rounded coronoid process ( fig . 8a ) . this gives the compound bone a wide and smooth appearance at its midpoint . a tiny coronoid bone is present , but unlike in u . woodmasoni , a sliver of the bone is visible in lateral view along the dorsal margin of the compound bone .", "when the six characters that exhibited the highest degree of polymorphism and individual asymmetries ( i . e . , characters 4 , 6 , 7 , 11 , 13 ) were removed from the analysis , 469 mpts were recovered ( tree length = 49 , ci = 0 . 7755 , ri = 0 . 8791 ) . as indicated by the majority rule consensus ( fig . 29b ) , a clade comprising species of uropeltis , rhinophis , and plectrurus was recovered in most topologies ( 87 % ) . however , in both the majority rule and strict consensus , resolution of relationships other than the position of species of melanophidium was extremely poor , suggesting that the excluded characters carry phylogenetic signal and should be revised rather than discarded ( figs . 29b , 30b ) .", "the parietal is a smoothly rounded , dorsally convex , midline element . at its anterolateral margin , a fingerlike supraorbital process extends anteriorly onto each frontal . in addition to the frontal , the parietal contacts the fused braincase complex posteriorly and ventrally , and occasionally the prefrontal anteriorly ( via the supraorbital process ) . the parietal closely approaches the pterygoid laterally , but soft tissue prevents contact . in all uropeltids we examined , only a single , unpaired parietal is present , although previous authors reported that incomplete fusion of the parietals is visible in some specimens of rhinophis and uropeltis [ 17 ] . it seems likely that those reports were based on the narrow , slit - like opening along the posterior midline of the parietal visible in some specimens ( e . g . , fig . 15 ) .", "both specimens resemble u . woodmasoni in their frontal proportions , but as in the other rhinophis species we examined , the frontals show much less mediolateral tapering in dorsal view . the crista trabecularis ends just anterior to the frontal - parietal suture . in all rhinophis species examined the optic foramen was contained within the frontal . in tmm m - 10038 , the palatal bones are disarticulated , and it is clear that the posterior bifurcation of the ventral groove is absent . in tmm m - 10037 the frontal process of the prefrontal and the supraorbital process of the parietal are in contact .", "the supraorbital processes of the parietal are proportionately narrower and straighter than in u . woodmasoni , and also are less tapered anteriorly . in dorsal view , the sagittal crest is more strongly developed in u . rubromaculata , but still weak , and the crest ends at a circular , roughened patch of bone instead of terminating at a depression . the posterior margin of the parietal has a prominent trilobed appearance . in lateral view , the opening for the cn v 2 is almost entirely within the braincase , but the anterior margin is completed by the parietal ( fig . 2b ) .", "in one specimen ( tmm m - 10032 ) , the caudal process is proportionately longer than the shaft , reaching 2 . 5 times the length of the latter . the second specimen , tmm m - 10045 , lacks this extra length and shows a stronger resemblance to u . woodmasoni , although both specimens of u . melanogaster have a more slender quadrate ( fig . 25b ) . the anterodorsal margin of the quadrate curves so that the anterodorsal corner is ventral to the dorsal margin of the bone . the angle between the caudal process and the shaft is more acute , roughly 90\u00b0 .", "the anterolateral process is large , broad , and squared in ventral view . it meets the anteromedial process of the maxilla and maintains contact with it along the posterior margin of the latter , moving toward the body of the maxilla . the anterior margin of the vomer is more like that of u . woodmasoni than r . blythii . it is also similar to those taxa in that the small process that projects into the vomeronasal opening originates on the ventral surface of the bone . as in all other rhinophis species we examined , the palatine process is not elongate ( figs . 7d ; 19b ) .", "the maxilla more closely resembles that of u . woodmasoni than r . blythii in lateral view , because the anterior tip does not extend ventrally past the premaxilla at the suture between the two elements , but the maxilla does deepen just posterior to that suture ( fig . 8b ) . the posteriormost lateral foramen is entirely anterior to the ascending process . in ventral view , the palatine process is small and does not extend far medially ( fig . 7b ) . seven tooth positions occur on each side , and the posteriormost tooth is positioned at the level of the anterior - most contact with the ectopterygoid .", "in anterolateral view the dorsal premaxillary process of the vomer extends anteriorly past the septomaxilla and is visible in the floor of the external naris . in ventral view , the triangularly pointed ventral premaxillary process of the vomer lies lateral to the vomerine process of the premaxilla ( figs . 7a ; 18a ) . the medial surface of the premaxillary process is l - shaped and receives the vomerine process of the premaxilla . posterolaterally , the anterolateral process of the vomer contacts the anteromedial process of the maxilla on the right side , but not the left side , of our specimen ( tmm m - 10030 ) . the posterolateral process and its anterior projection are broader and rounder than in the other species of uropeltis examined . the posterolateral process is thickened and a small ridge occurs where the process forms the posterolateral margin of the vomeronasal opening . the palatine process is not elongate .", "the prefrontal is similar to that of u . woodmasoni , but has a relatively larger frontal process that is also larger than the lateral foot process . in lateral view the rounded inflection in the anterodorsal margin occurs just posterior to the junction with the nasal and septomaxilla . a clear gap separates the frontal process of the prefrontal and the supraorbital process of the parietal . additionally , the entire anterior half of the ventrolateral margin ( including the medial foot process ) is overlapped by the ascending process of the maxilla , so that no part of the prefrontal is visible between the septomaxilla and the ascending process of the maxilla .", "as in the other rhinophis , the anterior lateral foramen of the maxilla is positioned more posteriorly than in u . woodmasoni . the lateral maxillary foramina are proportionately larger than any other taxon surveyed . the posterior - most foramen is located ventral and slightly posterior to the midpoint of the ascending process ( fig . 8d ) . ventrally , the anteromedial process is reduced , and the palatine process has a triangular , posteriorly directed point ( fig . 7d ) . the vomer and maxilla contact in palatal view . there are seven tooth positions on each side , and the posteriormost tooth is positioned just anterior to the anteriormost contact with the ectopterygoid .", "the shape of the septomaxilla is similar to that of u . woodmasoni in lateral view , but is more rounded overall . in lateral exposure , its anterior margin curves so that the ventral portion extends farther anteriorly than the dorsal ( fig . 8a ) . the septomaxilla reaches its anteriormost extent at the level of the premaxilla - maxilla suture and contacts both bones at that suture . there is no palatal tubercle visible between the junction of the vomer , premaxilla , and maxilla . the vomer and maxilla meet in palatal view because of complete underlap of the septomaxilla by the vomers and a robust anteromedial process of the maxilla ( fig . 7a ) .", "anterior is to the left ; scale bars = 1 . 0 mm .

5a ; 12a , b ) . in lateral view , a broad , crescentic ventral emargination forms the dorsal border of the external naris . in most specimens , the emargination begins at the anterior point of contact with the septomaxilla and increases in a gradual curve anteriorly . in tmm m - 10003 , tmm m - 10005 , and tmm m - 10010 , the emargination begins anterior to that contact . the anterolateral extent forms a rounded surface with a slight ventral inclination ( fig . 2a ) ;

12 m 2 of absorbent material ( cox and d ' antonio , 2009c ) ; however , such a quantity of moth wings is practically infeasible . besides , the shorter wavelengths of the ultrasonic spectrum render feasible the measurement of the absorption coefficient with a smaller chamber and smaller quantities of absorbent material . still , since this study did not follow the standard faithfully , the measured absorption quantity has been called absorption factor . the same term was employed by the only other documented study of sound absorption in the ultrasonic spectrum ( zeng et al . , 2011 ) .", "even with these measures , the reverberation time is spatially dependent within the reverberation chamber . to reduce the effect of non - diffuseness , two ultrasonic transducers equipped with funnels were utilised to direct the ultrasound into the chamber through 7 mm openings , scattering multi - directionally the acoustic wave that entered the chamber . in addition , the recording device , an ultrasonic microphone , could move freely up and down inside the chamber , allowing for spatial averaging of the measured reverberation times ( fig . 1 a ) .", "the absorption factors of the empty chamber and of the moth wings were measured over nine 1 / 3 octave bands that have centre frequencies from 20 to 100 khz . the parameter", "( s ) is the reverberation time after the introduction of the moth wings .", ") . the wings of each set were placed on a white background of known surface area and an image was obtained . the image was smoothened with edge - preserving bilateral filter (", ") . in the binary image , one class of pixels represents the wings and the other represents the background .", "first , the recorded signal of main frequency f was filtered with a bandpass digital filter designed with a kaiser window . the filter passed frequencies between f l and f h in order to retain only frequencies within the 1 / 3 octave band , frequencies outside this range were attenuated 80 db ( fig . s2a ) .", "the decay curve of the filtered signal has many fluctuations that render difficult the identification of the point where the response drops 60 db after the offset of sound ; therefore , the curve has to be smoothed . the first step of the smoothing process is to obtain the filtered signal ' s envelope by using the hilbert transform :", "( s ) is the time point where the signal merges with the noise level . the parameter", "is a maximally flat curve , meaning that its gradient is constantly negative . as a result , the curve crosses the \u221260 db point once . this property makes schroeder ' s integration method useful for the estimation of the reverberation time . however , in most cases l (", ") > \u201360 [ db ] . this means that the signal merges with the noise level before reaching the \u221260 db point . therefore , the reverberation time has to be estimated using linear regression .", "to compare the absorption factors among the nine preparations ( 3 chalcosiines and 3\u00d72 male and female saturniids ; fig . 2 a - d and fig . 3 a ) , a repeated measures model , specifically a subject - by - treatment model ( doncaster and davey , 2007 ) , was fitted . in the model , the absorption factors are the responses , preparation is the between - subjects factor , which is used as the predictor variable , and frequency is the within - subject factor . anova was used to test if the absorption factors differ significantly according to preparation ( fig . 3 a ) , and repeated measures anova to test if there is a significant effect of frequency on absorption factor as well as significant preparation - frequency interaction . the p - values of the repeated measures anova were computed using a greenhouse - geisser correction ( \u03b5 = 0 . 79 ) because mauchly ' s test for sphericity indicated that that the sphericity , hence the compound symmetry assumption , does not hold ( \u03c7 2 = 144 . 80 , p < 0 . 001 ) . to do pairwise comparisons between preparations , post hoc tukey - kramer tests were used ( fig . 2 a - d and fig . 3 a ) .", "accordingly , a repeated measures model was used for the comparisons among the three preparation groups ( chalcosiines , male and female saturniids ; fig . 2 e and fig . 3 b ) , albeit with the preparation group as the between - subjects factor . the same tests were carried out as with the above model . again , the sphericity did not hold ( \u03c7 2 = 142 . 61 , p < 0 . 001 ) , and a greenhouse - geisser correction ( \u03b5 = 0 . 81 ) was used for the calculation of the repeated measures anova p - values . all statistical analysis was conducted in matlab ( mathworks , uk ) , and a p - value of < 0 . 05 was considered statistically significant .", "is the noise . the equation is in db form and all quantities are measured in db .", "( m ) is the detection distance of the target ( e . g . moth ) , and", ") is the atmospheric attenuation factor . the first term of the equation accounts for loss due to spherical spreading and the second one for loss due to atmospheric attenuation .", "have wings of similar size and shape , their ratios of incident to returned sound intensity depend on the absorption factors of their wings alone . specifically , they are related as follows :", ") , which in this study returns exactly one real solution . eqn 13 was used to compare the detection distances of female and male", "we thank colleagues in the laboratories of the centre of ultrasonic engineering at the university of strathclyde for their advice and assistance during this work .", "a . n . conceived the study , which was designed by a . n . , f . g . and j . f . c . w . experiments were carried out by a . n . and f . g . ; data analysis was performed by a . n . a . n . , f . g . and j . f . c . w . interpreted the findings . a . n . drafted the article . all authors read and approved the final version of the manuscript .", "the research leading to these results has received funding from the european research council under the european union ' s seventh framework programme ( fp / 2007 -

tetramethylbenzidine ( tmb ) is added to an electrode with capture - target - detector complexes bound to its surface , the substrate is oxidized by hrp and reduced by the working electrode . this redox cycle results in shuttling of electrons by the substrate from the electrode to hrp , producing current flow in the electrode .", "authors : r . craig stillwell , ian dworkin , alexander w . shingleton , w . anthony frankino .", "authors : rangaraj m . rangayyan , shantanu banik , j . e . leo desautels .", "authors : peiling yap , thomas f\u00fcrst , ivan m\u00fcller , susi kriemler , j\u00fcrg utzinger , peter steinmann .", "institutions : swiss tropical and public health institute , basel , switzerland , university of basel , basel , switzerland .", "authors : yanping chen , adena why , gustavo batista , agenor mafra -

based metrics such as fractional anisotropy ( fa ) , together with fiber tracking ( ft ) accompanied by tractwise fractional anisotropy statistics ( tfas ) at the group level in order to identify differences in fa along wm structures , aiming at the definition of regional patterns of wm alterations at the group level . transformation into a stereotaxic standard space is a prerequisite for group studies and requires thorough data processing to preserve directional inter - dependencies . the present applications show optimized technical approaches for this preservation of quantitative and directional information during spatial normalization in data analyses at the group level . on this basis , ft techniques can be applied to group averaged data in order to quantify metrics information as defined by ft . additionally , application of dti methods , i . e . differences in fa - maps after stereotaxic alignment , in a longitudinal analysis at an individual subject basis reveal information about the progression of neurological disorders . further quality improvement of dti based results can be obtained during preprocessing by application of a controlled elimination of gradient directions with high noise levels . in summary , dti is used to define a distinct wm pathoanatomy of different brain diseases by the combination of whole brain -

( 2014 ) . we explored a likely evolutionary scenario for clam shrimp claspers based on a combination of clasper homologies , functionality , and branchiopoda phylogeny as available in several papers ( e . g . , richter et al . , 2007 ; olesen , 2009 ; olesen and richter , 2013 ; kaji et al . , 2014 ; sigvardt and olesen , 2014 ; fig . 13 ) . our general conclusion is that all similar ( but not necessarily homologous ) clasper parts ( movable finger , palps , and palm ) have the same general function in laevicaudata and spinicaudata ( fig . 11 ; cyclestherida amplexus not studied ) . . . .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "cs is powered by eprints 3 which is developed by the school of electronics and computer science at the university of southampton . more information and software credits .", "developmental genetics and arthropod evolution : part 1 , on legs . - pubmed - ncbi", "warning : the ncbi web site requires javascript to function . more . . .", "institute for biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics , university of amsterdam , netherland . schram @ urltoken", "left : a mirrored right lateral view of daphnia magna , courtesy of urltoken right : a right lateral view of a fairy shrimp , courtesy of u . s . fish and wildlife service", "with almost 800 described species , it is difficult to generalize about the branchipods . most live in fresh or brackish ( slightly salty ) water and a few are found in marine habitats . many are found exclusively in temporary ponds , where their eggs survive long periods of drought . you often find packages of dried eggs for sale in pet and toy stores . when the eggs are placed in water with an airstone , they hatch in just a couple days and you can watch them grow and swim . they are often used as food for aquarium animals .", "it is even more difficult to generalize about the body form of branchiopods . the thorax and abdomen are fused or indistinguishable in most but the anostraca . their appendages are generally phyllopodus ( leaf - like ) , although some groups have more appendages than others . they have a combination of paired compound and / or a single simple median eyes . many are capable of parthenogenesis ( growing from unfertilized eggs ) but several use other reproductive strategies , ranging from releasing eggs when the adult molts to encapsulating the eggs in a modified molt .", "branchiopods feed in many ways . some suspension feed and either remove organic particles from the water as they swim or stir up sediments to suspend organic particles that have settled and then remove them from the water . others scrape organic matter from sand grains and rock . still others actively prey on other small animals .", "scourfield , d . j . 1926 . on a new type of crustacean from the old red sandstone - lepidocaris rhyniensis . phil . trans . roy . soc . lond .

preserved from the devonian age rhynie chert in scotland ( russell - hunter 1969 ) . these lacked a carapace ( as with the anostraca ) and had a pair of very large second antennae that probably were used for swimming as in the modern cladocera ( russell - hunter 1969 ) .", "branchiopods probably originated in marine environments , but only those who migrated to fresh water survived . the fact that they are especially adapted to temporary pools and waters that are too extreme for other animals to live in ( like salt lakes ) indicates that they could have sought refuge in these places because they were unable to compete with or evade the more advanced groups of animals evolving in their original habitats . this resulted in a short generation cycle and small body size .", "the large branchiopods anostraca , notostraca , and conchostraca ( even if it the last one seems to be a partially artificial order ) are considered to be the most primitive , and most of them are still unable to live in waters where there are fish and other advanced predators , since they are too slow and vulnerable to survive them . a few of them , however , have adaptations allowing them to cope with this problem well enough to survive , even with predators around them .", "the small branchiopods , mostly represented by water fleas , have succeeded in becoming zooplankton in such a degree that waters filled with fish and other threats are no longer a problem . their main adaptation for survival is their high number thanks to their small size , ability to produce many offspring , and short life cycle .", "hobbs , h . h . 2003 . crustacea in encyclopedia of caves and karst science . routledge . retrieved december 5 , 2006 .", "myers , p . , r . espinosa , c . s . parr , t . jones , g . s . hammond , and t . a . dewey . 2008b . phylum brachiopoda the animal diversity web ( online ) . retrieved may 26 , 2008 .", "russell -

ant - parasitoid relationships . all other work conducted to date has been limited to the identification and basic biology of parasitoids [ 23 ] , [ 24 ] , [ 25 ] , [ 26 ] , [ 27 ] , and demonstrating the impacts of parasitoids on lac insects [ 22 ] , [ 28 ] , [ 29 ] . here , for the first time , we investigate the role of ants in protecting lac insects from parasitoids within the typical conditions of a lac farming system . specifically we address two hypotheses : 1 ) that different ant species with different abundance levels provide different levels of protection to k . yunnanensis ; and 2 ) that these relationships differ with the different life stages of k . yunnanensis .", "the study was carried out on private land ; we confirmed that the owner of the land gave permission to conduct the study on this site .", "at experimental commencement in october 2009 , one third of the trees throughout the plantation were inoculated with k . yunnanensis , typical of normal lac farming practices . inoculation involved placing brood lac , containing k . yunnanensis larvae , on branches . the larvae move from the brood lac onto the branches and aggregate .", "we selected 174 d . obtusifolia that were eight years old , 2 . 5 m to 2 . 8 m high , with a trunk diameter of 5 cm to 7 cm , and spaced at least 20 m apart . for the ant exclusion treatment , prior to k . yunnanensis inoculation , all ants visiting or living on 60 trees were removed , and a ring barrier of insect glue was applied to the main branch 0 . 5 m above the ground to prevent ant access . all other vegetation touching the tree were also cleared . every second week the insect glue was replaced and the surrounding vegetation was cleared to maintain ant exclusion .", "if our two treatments merely varied the abundance of a single ant species we would anticipate having a single relationship between parasitoids and the ants of the two ant attendance treatments . instead , because there are different ant species within the two ant attendance treatments , we would anticipate multiple relationships . this more complicated design reflects the on - ground reality of the farming system and therefore has greater practical application .", "except when stated otherwise , analyses were conducted using statistica 11 . not all k . yunnanensis aggregations were parasitized and there was no pattern of lack of parasitism with treatment ( e . g . all non - parasitized aggregations being in the high ant attendance treatment , or increasing lack of parasitism with decreasing ant attendance ) , so we excluded such trees from statistical analyses , leaving 22 , 20 and 21 samples ( february ) and 28 , 29 and 22 samples ( april ) in the exclusion to high ant attendance treatments respectively .", "mean ( \u00b1se ) lac crust area sampled in the three treatments and two sample times .", "to compensate for the slight non - homogeneity of sample size , we initially standardized the ant and parasitoid data per crust area , however , we found no relationship between ant abundance or parasitoid abundance with crust area . instead it appears that ants merely respond to the presence / absence of crust , and the effects on parasitoids are dependent on the type and number of ants present , irrespective of the size of the crust . additionally , the patterns of parasitoid abundance per crust and their statistical separation were identical when using non - standardized and standardized data . accordingly we used unadjusted abundance data for both ants and parasitoids in all analyses , and acknowledge that sample surface area of crusts between sample times are not fully homogeneous .", "non - metric multidimensional scaling was used to compare homogeneity of ant community structure of the low ant attendance treatment between the two sample times , and parasitoid community structure among the three treatments in the two sample times . the association matrices were based on a bray - curtis association of species - level abundance data per crust of ants and parasitoids respectively . differences among categories were tested using analysis of similarity ( anosim ) for the ant data , and permanova for the parasitoid data . all multivariate analyses were conducted using primer 6 .", "because parasitoid abundance and species varied so greatly between the two sample times , different statistical tests were used for different levels of analysis . total parasitoid abundance data were compared among treatments and between sample times using 2 - way anova , and tukey ' s hsd test for the post - hoc comparison of means . the abundance data was log ( x + 1 ) transformed so that residuals met parametric test assumptions , with normality and homogeneity of variance being assessed using graphical observations and levene ' s test respectively .", "abundance data of individual species could only be assessed for the three most common species , but not always for both sample times . additionally these data could not satisfy assumptions for parametric tests . for consistency of tests , where there were enough data to perform a test , we analysed sample times separately using non - parametric kruskal - wallis anova .", "parasitoid species richness per crust varied little and was heavily skewed , so we compared parasitoid species richness among treatments and between sample times using a poisson - log generalized linear model .", "within the low ant attendance treatment we found 11 species tending crusts , six in february , and eight in april ( table s1 ) . the two most abundant species were crematogaster ferrari and c . macaoensis , contributing 50 . 8 and 30 . 5 % of individuals respectively . ordination of the species - level ant abundance data showed that the species and their abundances differed significantly between the two sample times ( figure 2 ; anosim global r = 0 . 133 , p = 0 . 005 ) . this is largely due to the february sample having approximately half ( 5 ) the number of ants per crust compared to the april sample ( 10 ) , and the greater presence of the two most common ants , c . ferrari and c . macaoensis in april compared to february ( present on 86 % of crusts vs 65 % respectively ) .", "data are for low attendance treatment only , sampled in february ( closed symbols ) and april ( open symbols ) . 2d stress = 0 . 1", "a total of 2574 individuals of parasitoids belonging to five species were collected ( table 1 ) . the two most abundant species were tetrastichus purpureus and tachardiaephagus tachardiae , contributing 82 . 7 % and 13 . 2 % of individuals respectively . total parasitoid abundance varied greatly with treatment ( two - way anova ; f = 4 . 4 , p = 0 . 014 ) and sample time ( f = 52 , p < 0 . 0001 ) , with the two factors having a strong interaction effect ( f = 33 , p < 0 . 0001 ) . total parasitoid abundance was lowest in the february sample when k . yunnanensis was in its younger life stage , and interestingly was significantly lower in the ant exclusion treatment ( figure 3 ) . in april , all three treatments had significantly different parasitoid abundances ( figure 3 ) , with abundance being highest in the ant exclusion treatment and the lowest in the high ant attendance treatment .", "mean ( \u00b1se ) parasitoid abundance in the three treatments and two sample times .", "mean ( \u00b1se ) parasitoid species abundance data within the three ant attendance treatments from the two sample times .", "when ants were present , there were strong negative relationships between total parasitoid abundance and ant abundance , with the relationships being dependent upon the ant species composition and abundance ( figure 4 ) . for the single species c . macaoensis , its relationship with parasitoid abundance was consistent between the two sample times . however , the ant assemblages of the low ant attendance treatment that differed between the two sample times ( figure 2 ) displayed distinctly different relationships with parasitoid abundance ( figure 4 ) . the patterns of total parasitoid abundance were clearly driven by the two most abundant parasitoid species ( figure 5a , b ) . no relationship was evident for marietta javensis , the only other species with enough data to analyse ( figure 5c ) .", "treatments and sample times are low ( triangles ) and high ( circles ) ant attendance treatments sampled in february ( closed symbols ) and april ( open symbols ) . relationship metrics are : low ant attendance february sample : y = 22 . 627e \u22120 . 459x , r 2 = 0 . 9257 ; low ant attendance april sample : y = 831 . 1e \u22120 . 439x , r 2 = 0 . 914 ; high ant attendance : y = 39371x \u22122 . 837 , r 2 = 0 . 8571 .", "treatments and sample times are low ( triangles ) and high ( circles ) ant attendance treatments sampled in february ( closed symbols ) and april ( open symbols ) . relationship metrics are : graph a ) low ant attendance february sample : y = 70277e \u22120 . 301x , r 2 = 0 . 464 ; low ant attendance april sample : y = 839 . 3e \u22120 . 454x , r 2 = 0 . 827 ; high ant attendance : y = 2930 . 6x \u22122 . 079 , r 2 = 0 . 753 ; graph b ) low ant attendance february sample : y = 10 . 316x \u22121 . 128 , r 2 = 0 . 496 ; high ant attendance : y = 523271x \u22123 . 87 , r 2 = 0 . 638 .", "treatments and sample times are low ( triangles ) and high ( circles ) ant attendance , and ant exclusion ( squares ) , sampled in february ( closed symbols ) and april ( open symbols ) . 2d stress = 0 . 1 .", "our results clearly showed strong negative relationships between the abundance of tending ants and parasitoids , with the relationships being dependent upon the ant species present , ant abundance , and the k . yunnanensis developmental stage . greatest parasitism rates occurred at the oldest developmental stage measured , with the rate being least where crematogaster macoensis were present in high abundance .", "asymmetric protection from enemies provided to symbionts by different ant species is well documented globally [ 7 ] , [ 10 ] , [ 33 ] , [ 34 ] with greater protection being provided by ants with greater abundance and greater aggression . here , c . macaoensis was the most abundant , and the most aggressive species , and it provided the greatest protection from parasitoids possibly because they build structures over the lac crusts that provide additional protection against parasitoids . so from the perspective of both k . yunnanensis , and the farmer , c . macaoensis is best to protect lac insects within this agricultural system .", "more broadly for theoretical ecology , several hypotheses have been offered to explain mutually beneficial interactions between ants and honeydew -

( 1997 ) and wagner ( 2005 ) are also useful for larvae . many species can be identified from either stage and except for some datana the larvae do not have to be last instars . genitalia dissection will sometimes be necessary with single adult specimens or even small series and obviously for such species photographs are not acceptable .", "when possible base boundaries on vegetation structure , foodplant distribution in area or other known habitat features . see habitat and food comments fields for species - specific information on what constitutes habitat when mapping occurrences . note in particular care must be taken for the few that specialize on tree or shrubs that are localized within large forests .", "when multiple habitat patches occur in a large community complex such as a barrens or savanna or in a landscape feature like a ridgeline or canyon , regard all as one metapopulation .", "there are no real data but experience generally suggests habitats are either fully occupied or vacant at least over periods of a few years and usually in every generation . occurrences are usually hundreds of hectares to dozens of square kilometers . occurrences even of globally rare species can be more than 10 kilometers in at least one dimension - - at least in new jersey . all of this argues for large separation distances within suitable habitat . adult males are powerful fliers but heavily laden females probably are not . very few species feed as adults and so they probably do not live long . individual movements are probably modest , a few kilometers or less . long distance strays are virtually unknown . this suggests a short distance across unsuitable habitat . clearly some species recognize and respond to habitat features , for example all known occurrences of heterocampa varia in new jersey are clearly mostly in the 500 to 10 , 000 + hectare range but strays of males out of habitat are rare and of females unknown even with potential foodplants ( oaks ) ubiquitous . datana ranaeceps also rarely is found out of habitat there even though its foodplant is much more widespread and this moth seems absent from virtually all ( dozens to few hundred hectare ) habitat patches more than about 10 kilometers from the true pine barrens region in new jersey . h . varia appears to be absent from the willow grove lake preserve in new jersey even though there is a large population in nearby similar xeric oak woodland which would have been no more than about 10 - 20 kilometers separated originally , although more now . one does not usually find the forest species in residential areas more than a kilometers from woods . females at least apparently do not cross unsuitable habitat often . many species are very heavily egg laden and deposit eggs in rather large masses rather quickly after mating and so probably do not disperse them widely . some clostera and datana are extreme examples but females of heterocampa sometimes and schizura probably always also lay eggs in masses , although often in more , smaller masses . this also supports short distances over unsuitable habitats . do not use the 2 kilometer distance with substantial ( > 100 hectare ) occupied habitat patches separated by areas of marginal habitat .", "most notodontidae are widespread woodland or forest moths and typically they are not localized within such places unless the foodplant is . for species where there is some understanding of what actually is suitable habitat , few if any , observations suggest consistent partial occupancy but as noted some do require certain vegetation features ( often sparsely wooded to open scrub of some sort ) in addition to foodplant . notodontids seem to reliably occupy all available habitat where they are present at all , although they may of course be temporarily absent from patches within larger habitats ( especially datana ) . this radius is certainly unrealistically low for most species in large expanses of habitat but some limit is needed . if the habitat does not appear to be a large scale forest or woodland type , do not use this radius . for example some datana and a few others do sometimes occur in small habitats , but in such cases these should be obvious based on the foodplant .", "use the generic guidelines for the application of occurrence ranks ( 2008 ) . the key for ranking species occurrences using the generic approach provides a step -

year - old season , winning six in a row , including his first g1 victory in the 2016 jbc classic ( dirt , 2 , 100m ) in november . he just missed by a neck in the following champions cup ( g1 , dirt , 1 , 800m ) before another second in his last start , the tokyo daishoten ( g1 , dirt , 2 , 000m ) .", "in dubai\u2019s biggest international horse racing event , which takes place this year on march 26 , japanese runners have been successful seven times already : the 2011 dubai world cup with victoire pisa ( jpn , by neo universe ) ; three titles in the dubai sheema classic with stay gold ( jpn , by sunday silence ) , heart\u2019s cry ( jpn , by sunday silence ) and gentildonna ( jpn , by deep impact ) in 2001 , 2006 and 2014 , respectively ; twice in the dubai turf with admire moon ( jpn , by end sweep ) in 2007 and with just a way ( jpn , by heart\u2019s cry ) in 2014 ; and the 2006 godolphin mile with utopia ( jpn , by forty niner ) .", "when i mounted , i opened my heart and held a feeling of love and appreciation . i thought about how beautiful she is and held the picture in my mind of her perfection and her potential . whisper became light in my hands and very responsive to my leg aids . her center of gravity shifted back , her forehand became lighter and i felt a shift in her heart as though she was smiling . the feeling of oneness was remarkable . this is a typical example of the importance of heart coherence and illustrates how our attitude affects performance . practicing with a smile on our lips , an open heart , and a desire to flow together , can have a huge effect on performance and take the horse / human relationship to inspiring levels .", "shigeyuki kojima , trainer \u201cin the nhk mile cup , this colt\u2019s responses were better than the jockey had expected and he got too close to the horse in front at the third turn and lost his balance . that made a difference and was a real shame . he\u2019d been showing signs of getting a bit sour so we worked him in the pool for a change of scenery . he\u2019s now back looking really good and listening for the rider\u2019s signal . most importantly , he\u2019s calm . the distance is far from his best but if he takes the lead or you put on the brakes at some point , it ensues in a loss , so i think it\u2019s better to keep him away from the others and try to make the most of his late speed . \u201d", "given the high stakes , owners strive to improve the odds by employing the services of proven winners . deep impact , one of japan\u2019s best - loved and most famous racehorses , is also one of the country\u2019s leading live sperm donors . hundreds of times a year , the stallion is trundled off from his home in a farm a few hours from paca paca to inseminate another unsuspecting mare . if this union produces a foal , deep impact\u2019s owner , katsumi yoshida , is rewarded with \u00a530 million . so successful has the thoroughbred been that deep impact is currently earning \u00a56 billion ( almost $ 60 million ) a year . and at 14 \u2014 middle - aged for a horse \u2014 the stallion is still young enough to sire hundreds more children , as long as the spirit \u2014 and the body \u2014 is willing .", "although maurice , a shin hikari ( jpn , by deep impact ) and lovely day ( jpn , by king kamehameha ) left the racing scene as of the end of last season , the middle - distance category still maintains its high standard . several g1 winners remain in training , led by kitasan black ( jpn , h5 , by black tide ) , winner of the 2016 tenno sho ( spring ) ( g1 , 3 , 200m ) and japan cup , as well as the season\u2019s horse of the year . kitasan black will focus on racing in japan this spring , beginning with the osaka hai ( 2 , 000m ) \u2014upgraded to g1 status this year\u2014on april 2 , then the tenno sho ( spring ) on april 30 and the takarazuka kinen ( g1 , 2 , 200m ) on june 25 .", "the japanese runners turned in remarkable results at sha tin in hong kong last year where japan\u2019s maurice ( jpn , h5 , by screen hero ) claimed victory against hong kong\u2019s top milers in the hong kong mile ( g1 , 1 , 600m ) and a shin hikari ( jpn , h5 , by deep impact ) added another trophy in the hong kong cup ( g1 , 2 , 000m ) in december . maurice , 2015 horse of the year following victories in the yasuda kinen ( g1 , 1 , 600m ) , the mile championship ( g1 , 1 , 600m ) and the hong kong mile , cancelled his trip to dubai due to a minor hoof problem but is scheduled to have a go at becoming the first japanese winner of the champions mile ( g1 , 1 , 600m ) on may 1 .", "b ) if any race on the afternoon is going to be a championship clincher , as the day designates , then it ' s the sprint . apart from five - furlong specialist profitable , we could have every other group 1 winner in the league this year , namely mecca ' s angel , twilight son , limato and quiet reflection . if we get three in a row , never mind the jackpot of four , then , as the americans say , we got ourselves a horse race . fine margins make a big difference in top - level sprints , and arguably the least conditional of the quality quartet in the three - year - old , quiet reflection , who can do it on any ground , in any way , and we don ' t yet know her ability limits , when we do with the rest .", "the first major dirt race of the fall season , held on the same day as the kyoto daishoten , was the mile championship nambu hai . the winner in record time was copano rickey ( jpn , h6 , by gold allure ) , the 2015 best dirt horse and son of gold allure , who scored his eighth career g1 title . in third , 4 - 3 / 4 lengths behind , was hokko tarumae ( jpn , h7 , by king kamehameha ) , winner of the 2014 champions cup ( g1 , dirt , 1 , 800m ) . both horses will join 2015 champions cup runner - up nonkono yume ( jpn , c4 , by twining ) and third - place finisher sound true ( jpn , g6 , by french deputy ) in their next start , the jbc classic ( dirt , 2 , 100m ) on november 3", "masahiro yokota , assistant trainer \u201cthe pace was fast in the second lap of the aoba sho and after the 1 , 000 - meter mark and with it being 2 , 400 meters , it was very tough for him leading the way he did . he\u2019s really too serious of a horse and he\u2019d do better if he could relax a bit under way . for about a week after that we took pains to make sure he was fully recovered , then worked him up the hill course . daichi shibata rode him on the woodchips over the flat on may 19 and all looked in order . i\u2019m hoping he\u2019ll be able to use the experience he has having run before under the derby conditions . i don\u2019t know if he\u2019ll be able to settle well or not , but he is good over bad ground , so rain would be most welcome . \u201d"]}

in my experience , there are several reasons . first , aphanius mento requires space . this is quite a contrast to the average killifish that is content in a two gallon aquarium . enough though their maximum size is about two inches , a group of persian killies should be kept in a 45 gallon aquarium , and even bigger is better . a breeder flat or large plastic \" blanket \" box can be used to breed the adults . in this \" small \" container , you will need to closely monitor the females . the dominant male can be extremely aggressive toward the females , and the females need room to run . without enough space , you will end up with a lonely male .", "aphanius vladykovi : 35 males ( 17 . 3\u201329 . 2 mm sl ) and 35 females ( 16 . 1\u201341 . 4 mm sl ) from the chaghakhor wetland in the upper reaches of the karoun basin ( iran , chahar mahale bakhtyari province ) , 31\u00b055 ' n , 50\u00b056 ' e . males : zm - cbsu , 6408 - 09 , 6413 - 14 , 6416 , 6418 , 6420 - 21 , 6423 , 6425 - 27 , 6430 , 6433 - 41 , 6443 - 44 , 6446 , 6448 - 49 , 6451 - 57 : females : zm - cbsu , 6401 - 03 , 6405 - 07 , 6410 - 12 , 6415 , 6417 , 6419 , 6422 , 6424 , 6428 - 29 , 6431 - 32 , 6442 , 6445 , 6447 , 6450 , 6458 - 70 .", "dorsal spines ( total ) : 0 ; dorsal soft rays ( total ) : 9 - 11 ; anal spines : 0 ; anal soft rays : 7 - 10 . can be diagnosed from other species of aphanius , valenciidae and fundulidae in europe by having the following characters : males possess a hyaline to bluish - grey caudal fin , with 2 - 5 dark grey bars , 10 - 20 dark grey to dark blue bars on a silvery background , bars usually irregularly shaped and set , often connected , breaking up into a mosaic of dark blue and silvery spots along back and in posterior part of body ; females have numerous dark brown spots on sides and back ; 23 - 27 scales in lateral line series on body ; pectoral fin with 9 - 10 rays ; and anal fin with 7 - 8 rays ( ref . 59043 ) .", "apart from those few specimens that show the neural spine smaller to equal to those of pu4 and / or pu5 , all specimens of \u2020 kenyaichthys exhibit a neural spine on pu2 that is wider than those of pu4 and pu5 ( see above ) , like the studied extant cyprinodontiform species , with the exception of one specimen of aphanius mesopotamicus ( see table 3 ) . furthermore , \u2020 kenyaichthys displays mean values and ranges of pu3 / pu5 neural and haemal spine ratios that are comparatively close to the mean values of the studied aplocheiloid specimens ( see table 3 ) . in addition , the haemal spine pu2 / pu4 mean value of \u2020 kenyaichthys is closer to the respective value of the studied aplocheilid specimens , whereas the haemal spine pu2 / pu5 mean value of \u2020 kenyaichthys is closer to the respective value of the studied nothobranchiid specimens ( see table 3 ) .", "aphanius sophiae : 35 males ( 19 . 3\u201333 . 3 mm sl ) and 35 females ( 18 . 6\u201336 . 6 sl ) from the ghadamgah spring - stream system ( close to type locality ) in the kor river basin ( iran , fars province ) , 30\u00b015 ' n , 52\u00b025 ' e . males : zm - cbsu , 8460 , 8462 , 8462 , 8466 , 8468 , 8470 , 8472 - 73 , 8475 , 8477 , 8479 , 8481 , 8483 , 8485 , 8487 , 8479 , 8489 , 8491 - 97 , 8499 , 8501 , 8503 - 09 , 8511 - 13 ; females : zm - cbsu , 8461 , 8463 , 8465 , 8467 , 8469 , 8471 , 8474 , 8476 , 8478 , 8480 , 8482 , 8484 , 8486 , 8488 , 8490 , 8498 , 8500 , 8502 , 8510 , 8514 - 29 .", "aphanius farsicus : 35 males ( 20 . 0\u201326 . 8 mm sl ) and 35 females ( 20 . 4\u201335 . 2 mm sl ) from the barm - e - shur spring in the maharlu lake basin ( type locality ) ( iran , fars province ) , 29\u00b027 ' n , 52\u00b042 ' e . males : zm - cbsu , 9413 , 9415 , 9417 , 9421 , 9441 , 9443 , 9447 , 9449 , 9459 , 9467 , 9481 , 9483 , 9485 , 9487 , 9489 , 9493 , 9497 , 9499 , 9503 , 9511 , 9513 , 9515 , 9517 , 9519 , 9527 , 9529 , 9531 , 9533 , 9537 , 9539 , 9541 , 9555 , 9557 , 9559 , 6375 ; females : zm - cbsu , 9410 , 9412 , 9420 , 9422 , 9428 , 9442 , 9444 , 9452 , 9458 , 9472 , 9474 , 9478 , 9482 , 9488 , 9492 , 9494 , 9498 , 9500 , 9502 , 9504 , 9506 , 9510 , 9516 , 9520 , 9530 , 9532 , 9534 , 9536 , 9558 , 9560 , 9562 , 9564 , 6364 , 6359 , 6385 .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd html 4 . 01 transitional / / en \"", "javascript is required to use this web site . please turn it on before proceeding .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .", "carmona , j . & darwall , w .

however , morphological features of the surface of the carapace are well exhibited so that detailed comparisons can be made . examination of types , or illustrations of types , of all other species within the genus confirms that the form of the carapace ridges , shape of the rostrum , and outline of the posterior element of the mesogastric region provide ample evidence that c . grayi is unique . all species within the genus , except c . concava , c . senegalensis , and c . grayi , possess ridges that are broadly rounded . the three exceptions have narrower , more sharply defined , granular ridges . among these three species , only c . senegalensis and the new species have downturned , triangular rostra . costacopluma concava , as with all other species of the genus for which the rostrum is known , bears a rostrum that is broadened or clearly bifid distally . all species of costacopluma , with the exception of c . senegalensis and c . grayi , have rostra that are substantially narrower proximally than it is distally . costacopluma grayi can be readily distinguished from c . senegalensis because the former exhibits a beaded rostral surface , a distinctly beaded lateral margin , and a nearly circular posterior element of the mesogastric region . the posterior part of the mesogastric region on c . senegalensis is transversely ovoid and lacks beaded ornamentation .", "retroplumoidea ( crustacea , brachyura ) nel terziario del vicentino ( italia settentrionale ) .", "fossil decapod crustacea from the late cretaceous coon creek formation , union county , mississippi .", "the eocene tallahatta formation of alabama and georgia : its lithostratigraphy , biostratigraphy , and bearing on the age of the claibornian stage .", "a new crab , costacopluma bifida ( crustacea , decapoda ) from the palaeocene of venezuela .", "a table of the north american tertiary horizons , correlated with one another and with those of western europe , with annotations .", "costacopluma nordestina n . sp .

( if you want to blame someone for the devaluation of this word , look no further than the breeders\u2019 cup , which insists on calling the winner of each of its races a champion , as in \u201cbreeders\u2019 cup juvenile fillies turf champion . \u201d )", "the belmont stakes champion ' s dam , palace rumor , doesn ' t boast the same resume , but isn ' t half bad , either . she never placed at any of the triple crown legs , but had success in winning the audubon oaks at the famous ellis park in 2006 .", "three chimneys , on the other hand , is putting a whole new spin on rushing our best horses off to stud at the drop of a hat . they certainly sweetened the deal , when they opened the door for palace malice to run next year , which helped them win the opportunity to stand the top horse at their farm , but they did more than that . they did something good for the sport of racing , and i think i can speak for millions of race fans everywhere when i say , that i am grateful . grateful for the chance to see more or this . . ."]}

lgm event . other views regarding the lgm in holderness and southern yorkshire are challenged . consideration is given to the extents and levels of proglacial lakes , and a case is made that a bedrock sill at gainsborough exerted stronger control on lake levels than oscillations of ice in the humber gap . isostatic displacements related to the two advances are held responsible for the existence of lake humber in two discrete phases .", "the sediments at welton - le - wold have been described and discussed for some 40 years , mainly because of two important features , the discovery of artefacts beneath ancient tills and the direct overlay of devensian till on one of these . quarry operations ceased in 1973 , and in 2004 a report for english heritage ( aram et al , 2004 ) described renewed research and also presented an interpretation of environmental circumstances that differed from earlier accounts . the earlier views were reiterated ( straw , 2005 ) , but two recent papers ( green , 2011 ; gamble , 2014 ) relied on the 2004 version . data concerning the sediments , their modes and environments of deposition are now confirmed , and age estimates place the older deposits firmly within mois 8 ( 300 - 245ka bp ) .", "in addition to the two new fossil locations previously described within chamwood forest , multiple new fossil planes , including new locations , have been discovered over the last year . multiple disc - form fossils abound in these localities . probable new species are described , albeit largely as single specimens . one of the newly discovered localities offers the highest concentration of fossil forms to be found within charnwood forest to date .", "new localities with precambrian fossils have been found in charnwood forest . new specimens include hadrynichorde aff . catalinensis , which is a species potentially new to britain . also revealed are juvenile forms of organisms not recorded previously , and fossil forms that have no clear associations with currently recognised species .", "the lower jurassic marlstone rock formation was formerly worked for ironstone near denton ( se lincolnshire ) , and the middle jurassic northampton sand formation near hungerton and colsterworth ( se lincolnshire ) and saltby ( ne leicestershire ) , southwest and south of grantham . two ammonites from the northampton sand formation at hungerton are illustrated .", "when the upper greensand of the haldon hills was surveyed in the 1960s poor exposure made its subdivision impossible , but a seismic survey revealed a remarkable thickness variation from 16m to 84m . this variation was explained in terms of contemporaneous down - folding of the basement during deposition . later excavations for the re - aligned a38 road across great haldon yielded good sections that enabled a succession to be compiled and aided correlation with the sections in east devon . there remain major questions concerning the erosional history of the upper greensand , and there is no explanation either for the survival of the haldon hills themselves or for the absence of any upper greensand outliers between haldon and the main outcrop of east devon .", "discrete , funnel - shaped structures consisting of downwarped and disrupted strata are described from a restricted stratigraphical interval in the late neoproterozoic charnian supergroup , just above the base of the bradgate formation at exposures in bradgate park , in charnwood forest , leicestershire . the structures occur within a deep - water marine turbidite succession and have attracted much attention , with a variety of explanations advanced to account for their origin including volcanic bomb - impacts and burrowing organisms . this article describes these structures , interprets their mode of origin , and concludes that they compare with features known as ' thixotropic wedges ' . the latter have been described from various other parts of the world and are commonly placed within a category of soft - sediment deformation phenomenon known as ' seismites ' . such an association may have important implications for the style of turbidite sedimentation in the charnian supergroup as a whole .", "in 1849 , john plant reported \" polypidoms of a coralline \" from the \" keuper sandstone \" exposed in a railway cutting near leicester . he proposed the name gorgonia keuperi for these structures , but this is a nomen nudum . subsequent authors have consistently questioned the organic origin of ' gorgonia keuperi ' , or considered it to be an ichnofossil , but it has never been illustrated . museum specimens labelled ' gorgonia keuperi ' have been found to contain a number of ichnofossils , amongst which the commonly occurring planolites montanus is considered most likely to be the inspiration for what john plant termed ' ' gorgonia ' .", "a considerable volume of palaeoclimatic research has emerged in the last 20 years since the initial publication of the greenland ice core records . this review focuses on the pattern of holocene climate change that includes a remarkable oscillation in the so - called 8 . 2 ka bp event . the footprint of this is tracked across the north atlantic , from its spectacular origins in the hudson bay megaflood , to the greenland ice sheet , and on into western europe and beyond . researchers are unanimous in recognising a sharp temperature downturn in this anomaly , but differ in their understanding of its impact on precipitation . a hypothesis of cold aridity is proposed , and the paper concludes with a speculative look into the future .", "phosphate is a minor component of mesozoic and tertiary formations . it occurs widely scattered as nodules in argillaceous sediments , but is commonly concentrated in pebble beds and may be found replacing fossils . phosphatic animal remains are rare and commonly occur immediately above major discontinuities , and fossilised animal faeces ( coprolites ) are extremely rare . phosphatic pisoliths occur at only one horizon .", "the hucklow - eyam - longstone area is largely composed of the monsal dale and eyam limestones subdivisions of the carboniferous limestone , with a cover of millstone grit shales and sandstones . workable mineral veins are hosted in late visean limestones above the cressbrook dale lava . a few have been followed beneath the namurian shale cover . the limestones dip gently eastwards except for the late visean longstone edge monocline . the e - w hucklow edge rake and the watersaw - high - deep rake vein systems dominate and a geological history of fracturing in late visean times followed by episodic mineralization in westphalian times can be deduced ."]}

year ban from jan 2007 on exports of timneh from four west african countries , and the importation of wild - caught birds into the eu was prohibited in 2007 , leading to a fall in exports of both species , but the number of exportations rose once again in 2008 / 09 ( del hoyo et al . 2016 ) .", "each protected area designated with partial habitat status might not harbour the grey parrot in some of its parts due to the presence of savannah and grassland which do not attract the parrot . in some cases , the difference in habitat type in a protected area might be due to degradation from past socioeconomic pressures on the habitat or because that part of the protected area was on a relatively higher elevation than other parts . generally , high elevations brought about changes in vegetation composition and structure . for example , most of the grey parrots were detected below the elevation 800 m in the montane protected areas . in all , 54 . 6 % of the protected areas were completely covered with rainforest ( table 2 ) . the parrot therefore had more habitat resources for exploitation in those protected areas than those with partial rainforest .", "of particular concern is the effect of both the legal and illegal trade on the subspecies p . e . timneh , which has smaller numbers and a more limited distribution than the nominate species . there has been no effort to assess the impacts of trade in three of the five range states , nor to assess the effect of guinea having exported numbers of birds in excess of its estimated population .", "a survey was carried out by a team on the ground in the study area from 2008 to 2011 involving collection of nationwide data on parrot population distribution , abundance , and vegetation associations . two major methods ( questionnaire and point count ) were used for field data collection .", "p . erithacus the populations in upper guinea , nigeria and cameroon may have suffered reductions similar to those suffered by p . timneh . the populations in the congo basin , including equatorial guinea , gabon , republic of congo , dr congo , central african republic may have suffered some declines as stated previously in the birdlife grey parrot factsheet , due to harvesting and forest loss . however , it is unlikely we have sufficient data on the population in any congo basin country to say precisely that the decline of this species has exceeded 30 % . estimations of forest loss are likely to be the best proxy of p . erithacus population decline and should be used for this purpose .", "the contemporary range of the parrot has not drastically contracted but has been reduced through fragmentation and deforestation in all regions . fragmentation was observed not only in logged forest concessions , farmland , and human settlements , but also in some parts of protected areas which were encroached with farms and human settlements . for example , villages were observed in the korup national park and the santchou reserve pending government resettlement activities to the support zone of the protected areas . all the regions with parrot populations had at least 20 . 40 % of surviving rainforest ( table 3 ) .", "ecology : timneh parrots are found in primary and secondary rainforest , forest edges and clearings , gallery forest , mangroves , savanna and cultivated land . diet consists of a variety of seeds , nuts , fruits ( including oil - palm ) and berries . birds will sometimes travel vast distances for food . they are generally seen in small , but vocal , flocks of a few dozen , usually not more .", "has all the great attributes of these popular birds . though the timneh is a less common subspecies than the african grey congo , it ' s a very intelligent and clever bird . african greys are known to be the best talkers in the bird world . they are able to learn 200 or more words and all kinds of tricks . they also frequently imitate the sounds of their environment , and including people .", "they equal the congo ' s in pet potential and \" talking \" ability . they are darker grey in color and have a maroon tail . we have found hand fed tags to be playful and affectionate . they need a \" grey \" sized parrot cage , lots of stimulating toys and an affectionate owner . they bond closely with their owners and delight in being part of the family . our breeding tag ' s are on a pelleted diet with the addition of fresh fruits and veggies .

atlantic equatorial coastal forest , which is made up predominantly of mangrove swamp forest ( figure 3 ) ; and the cross - sanaga - bioko forest , which is predominantly made up of a mixture of lowland and highland rainforest .", "the species has a wide distribution across tropical africa , from guinea - bissau east to kenya and tanzania , and south to angola ( 2 ) , including populations on the islands of pr\u00edncipe and s\u00e3o tom\u00e9 ( 3 ) . p . e . timneh is restricted to the western part of this range , from guinea to ivory coast , with isolated populations in guinea - bissau and southern mali ( 3 ) ( 6 ) .", "grey parrots usually bond with one person . they wouldn ' t do well with most children , as they are not very patient and will bite if they are being handled . mind you , which parrot wouldn ' t . . . for kids , i would always recommend parakeets and cockatiels .", "the timneh , like most birds , are far more intelligent than humans realize . they are more than a pet . they are a permanent 3 year old dressed in feathers with an unending capacity to love and a need to learn . greys require a lot of attention and stimulation to be a happy healthy member of the family . they want to learn throughout their lifetime and are interested in expanding their knowledge on just about anything .", "focus of future work : wpt ' s focus is to work with communities living within the jo\u00e3o vieira \u2013 poil\u00e3o national park in guinea - bissau to identify long - term solutions for the protection of these areas . ongoing support for law enforcement in the region will diminish the threat of illegal trade . in 2018 , wpt will support research focused on timneh ' s status and threats to their survival , being carried out in sierra leone .", "much of the grey\u2019s appeal comes from its talking ability . it is among the best talkers in the parrot family , able to repeat words and phrases after hearing them just once or twice . this bird reaches full talking ability around a year of age , and most individuals become capable mimics much earlier .", "the study area covered the whole of the southern part of cameroon where rainforest exists ( figure 1 ) . sample points were selected randomly on each path in protected or nonprotected areas , to ensure that a cross - section of the major vegetation types in the geographical range of the grey parrot was sampled .", "if you notice any of this bird illnesses in your african grey , immediately provide a warm , draft free , secure environment kept at about 86\u00b0f ( 30\u00b0c ) . place food and water close to the perch where it is easily accessible . an ailing parrot should be taken to a avian veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment .", "geographic coordinates ( longitude and latitude ) and altitude of each sampled site and all parrot detection points were registered with a global positioning system ( gps ) . this information was later downloaded into arcgis software and analysed for distribution on a topographic map of cameroon . satellite vegetation data on cameroon were obtained from various databases . the data consisted of aboveground vegetation biomass ( mg / ha biomass ) , cameroon ecoregions , and vegetation ( land cover ) datasets . each vegetation dataset was analysed and arranged on the cameroon topographic map in various layers . finally , the parrot detection points were arranged in a layer , which was superimposed on each vegetation map to come out with various distribution maps of the bird .", "the research team was made up of five persons ( two wildlife biologists , an environmental geographer , a rural sociologist , and a driver ) . structured questionnaires ( open and closed ) , personal interviews , and focus group discussions were administered to a cross - section of the rural population on aspects of parrot distribution , forest exploitation , and wildlife conservation activities .", "besides talking , african greys can and will make all the sounds they hear in the home . they can mimic all the other birds and pets , and of course , they can use any voice that they hear in the house as well . they can begin to mimic even before they are weaned , but not usually in clear sounds for some time . timneh african greys don ' t really start speaking until they reach a year of age or older . as you interact with them , they will talk and associate words with meanings ."]}

parks and petrol - stations . presumably , they feel more secure when sleeping with the lights on .", "starlings are great at mimicry , with examples including machines , such as telephones and car alarms , and other birds such as curlews and pied wagtails . consequently , it ' s difficult to know what their song is other than a medley of squeaks , clicks and whistles .", "a clutch consists of 4 - 6 glossy blue eggs , which are laid one every other day . the incubation usually starts after the third or fourth egg has been laid . the young hatch about 14 to 15 days later . the female broods the chicks for about two weeks , with the female staying at the nest during the night . the chicks are fed by both parents until they fledge ( leave the nest ) about three weeks later . one instance of interspecific feeding has been reported - where a common myna fed a young asian pied starling .", "starlings seem to have an insatiable appetite and will eat just about anything from anywhere - except starling proof feeders - and throw much of it about while they are at it ! further , they feed in flocks and so several birds are usually feeding in this lively manner , which is a sight to behold .", "each winter many thousands of starling enter the uk from mainland europe often forming large evening murmurations in rural , urban and semi -

$ 40 . additional features will cost more than that but it is always less than an ac .", "an ac unit requires lot more energy than a tower fan . an ac drags in hot air , cools it and flushes out the cool air through vents . an air conditioner pulls more electricity to run this process .", "a best tower fan needs only 2400 watts in an entire day , whereas , the same power is required every hour to run an ac . therefore , you can save a great deal of money if you are running a tower fan instead of an ac . energy star rated products are designed to consume less energy , however , they don\u2019t come cheap", "for an highest quality tower fan , take a look at this site , these guys have reviewed some great tower fans , which are great for cooling small - to medium - sized rooms .", "air conditioners are heavier and bigger appliances , therefore , they produce more noise . though , these are designed to work quietly but some amount of noise does come from them . a tower fan operates softly without disturbing your sleep .", "the air conditioners are generally non - portable . new versions of portable acs have been launched , however , these are not as efficient as the main stream ac machines . portability helps you to carry it wherever you want and enjoy the cool breeze but acs are not good for you if you want a portable home cooling appliance .", "the tower fans are portable . you can fix a location or keep changing it , whatever suits you . the models are lighter , sleek and smooth , therefore , helps you save more space . the weight is easy for carrying purpose .",

change speed levels with the help of a remote .", "i hope that after the comparison between tower fans and acs you would be able to decide which one is the best for you . tower fans are highly recommended if you want to save a great deal of money when purchasing the unit and also when running it . whereas , the acs are only good for cooling , but these do not help you save money .", "the flowering process in the garden represents significant transformations in the development of the vegetable plants . in some cases it signals the start of the cropping process . in other cases it represents the end of the productive life of a plant . flowering can also be a used to time events or can be a warning sign for a gardener \u2013 a sign that we may have done something wrong , or are taking a risk .", "many of the vegetables that we eat are in fact fruit or seeds \u2013 a fruit being roughly defined the part of the plant that contains the seeds . tomatoes , peppers , aubergines / eggplant , cucumbers , courgette / zucchini and squash are all technically fruit , some being eaten at the immature stage and others when fully ripe . runner bean and french / snap / green bean pods are immature fruit , with the peas , broad beans and sweet corn being immature seeds . all of these , and more , are dependent on flowers and pollination . if the flowers are delayed or there is not sufficient pollination , then there will be no crop \u2013 in most cases .", "pollination occurs with the transfer of pollen from the male flower to the female flower , or from the male part to the female part within the same flower . this pollination is done by the wind , by insects or automatically within the flower , depending on the plant and the growing conditions .", "there are very few plants in the vegetable garden that have male and female flowers on different plants . spinach is the most common with some plants being male and some plants being female . as we eat the leaves of this plant and not the fruit or seeds , pollination is not something for a grower to worry about , unless you want to save seeds . asparagus is another example , and the yield from male plants is apparently higher , so there may be an advantage to having more male plants .", "some vegetables have separate male and female flowers on the same plant \u2013 called \u2018imperfect\u2019 flowers \u2013 and the pollen must be transferred between them by the wind or an animal . sweet corn is one of the few crops in a vegetable garden that rely on wind pollination to ensure a decent crop . courgettes / zucchini and the closely related squash and pumpkin are the most common and vibrant examples of plants that rely on insects \u2013 or humans \u2013 to produce a crop .", "if you wanted to save seed for one variety of courgette , or if you wanted to specifically cross breed two different varieties , it is fairly easy to do with this manual pollination technique , so long as you can prevent insects from interfering in the process .", "flowers are considered to be \u2018perfect\u2019 if they contain both the male and female parts within the same flower . this obviously simplifies pollination , but the process still occurs . peas and french / green / snap beans have perfect flowers in which the pollen laden stamen brushes past the female stigmas as the flower opens \u2013 this is a self pollination process . even though bees may visit the flowers , they are not needed in the process , and very rarely do they transfer pollen from one flower to the next . this makes seed saving very convenient \u2013 though breeding is a trickier task .", "tomatoes also have perfect flowers and are self pollinating in most cases . all that is needed is for the pollen to be shaken onto the female part of the flower which is enclosed within the male part . this can be done by the wind shaking the plant , buy a buzzing insect landing on the flower , or by the gardener gently tapping or vibrating the individual flowers or the entire plant . in some of the larger beefsteak tomato varieties , the female stigma projects out of the flower a bit and can be cross - pollinated by insects carrying pollen from another flower .", "unfortunately suitable bees do not regularly come into the polytunnel , so i tried doing the triggering myself with a tiny paint brush . by holding onto the top petal of each flower , i was able to insert the brush into the flower and gently pull down the lower part , pushing open the flower and hopefully triggering the pollination just as a bee would . this seems to have worked as pods are now starting to form . it is a tedious job but a simple one . given how big the runner beans become , taking a few minutes to trigger even a few dozen flowers each morning can ensure a bigger harvest than most families can eat or freeze .", "warning sign the premature bolting of leaf plants is one of the key signals to a grower that things are not quite right for the plants . something is stressing them , and although there is little that a grower can do to reverse this bolting process , it is a good opportunity to learn about what might be done differently . sometimes it is simply weather conditions that are inappropriate for the plant , and a grower can choose to plant earlier , later or use different varieties and crops . bolting could also indicate that the plant felt too crowded , and did not have enough space above or below ground to grow any bigger . water stress , or lack of nutrients can also be a factor , both of which a grower can do something about \u2013 next time . bolting can also be caused by transplants that were not taken care of , were too long in the pots or modules , were not hardened off enough , or received rough treatment while being transplanted .", "one of the other warning sighs about flowering is the potential danger of increasing the problems with weeds . an annual weed can can go from flower to the production of viable seeds in a very short period of time . even if you pull out a flowering weed and throw it into the compost , the plant may have enough energy left in its roots and leaves to produce viable seeds , which will then be spread across the garden with the compost \u2013 unless it is a hot enough compost . vegetable plants can also become problematic weeds if you let them produce seeds . it is common to see a few old kale plants in an allotment being allowed to flower . while this is a beautiful sight , and very beneficial for pollinating bees , each of these plants can produce thousands of seeds , which can become a major weed the next year \u2013 something that i am currently experiencing . remember , one year\u2019s seeding requires seven years of weeding .", "one final aspect is that the timing of the flowing of various \u2018weeds\u2019 and naturally occurring plants in the vicinity can be a very useful guide to when things could be sown or transplanted . for example , dandelions flower each spring , but at different dates , depending on the overall conditions such as weather , soil temperature , etc . this could be used a signal that conditions are right for sowing some early plants . this of course takes experience , but in the context of climate change , it is useful guide to the changes of the season and when tasks should be done , rather than relying or dates in the calendar . there is so much to observe and learn .", "peas are not usually grown in protected gardens as they don\u2019t like the heat and the space is usually considered too valuable for such a low yielding crop . but i decided to try growing some peas in the polytunnel in order to produce an early treat before anything would be available outside . summary :", "the avola dwarf pea variety was used , which is supposed to produce an early crop from an overwintering or early spring planting . it is a round seeded variety and is supposed to grow 60cm tall . growing details include :", "the plants were healthy in general , with no significant problems , though they grew taller than expected . the crop was a tasty and welcome treat , but yields were low and the crop was later than expected .", "a total of almost 2 hours was spent on this crop , mostly on harvesting and setting up the supporting structure .", "gfi for this crop is 18 servings / hour or 16 . 5 servings / m\u00b2 .", "this is at the low end of the scale , a very inefficient use of time and space .", "a serving size was set at 50g , as they are usually eaten fresh and uncooked .", "calculation does not include the \u2018cost\u2019 of the tunnel , water and other inputs .", "the crop was relatively trouble free . one of the plants was damaged at base of a stem by an unknown pest . at the end of the cropping , some of the peas were eaten by a mouse .", "growing the peas at the side of the tunnel was a mistake as it made it more difficult and time consuming to harvest the peas .", "the peas grew to about 120cm tall , almost twice the expected height , causing them to outgrow the supporting structure , and making harvesting more difficult .", "try sowing earlier for an earlier harvest , possibly even in november as an overwintering crop .", "use a heavier cropping rather than a really early variety , which would produce over a longer period of time .", "the end of harvest in the tunnel should ideally coincide with the start of harvest of overwintering peas outside , to ensure a continuity of supply , but this is dependent on weather .", "peas are probably not as suitable as mangetout for protected cropping , given the difference in yield .", "kohlrabi is an unusual vegetable . closely related to the cabbage and the turnip , the edible component is actually a swollen part of the stem , which is similar in texture and taste to a broccoli stem , but milder and sweeter . while it is a common crop in parts of europe , it is very much a novelty here in ireland , and i trialed it in the protected garden as a hunger gap crop .", "the kohlrabi was grown in the same bed as carrots , beetroot , chard , turnip and radish , which were all to provide a crop before the summer crop of cucumbers and melons . a purple skin azur star variety was used with the following planting details :", "total yield including leaves estimated at 1 . 4kg / m or 5 . 7kg / m2 .", "a total of about 30 minutes was spent on this crop , most of it on the original sowing and filling in the gaps with transplants \u2013 including the time spent caring for and watering the tray of transplants .", "gfi for this crop is almost 40 servings / hour or 20 servings / m\u00b2 .", "if leaves were eaten gfi would increase to 85 servings / hr or 45 servings / m\u00b2 .", "with full germination , gfi could increase to 70 servings / hr , 120 with leaves .", "serving size set at 100g , not including a small amount of waste from peeling .", "calculation does not include the \u2018cost\u2019 of the tunnel , water and other imputs .", "beyond the poor germination of the original sowing \u2013 caused by either old seed or cool conditions \u2013 the crop was trouble free and quick to produce . there were no noticeable diseases or deficiencies , but one of the bulbs split , possibly due to inconsistent soil moisture . three plants ( 15 % ) failed to produce a useable bulb before the space was needed for other crops . the crop occupied a lot of space and the big leaves crowded out the slower growing carrots and beetroot .", "gfi should be 70 servings / hour or 25 servings / m\u00b2 with tender stems .", "finally , a few cobs of sweetcorn were ready to harvest in the protected garden ! given the cool and damp context , it is unusual to be able to eat any locally grown sweetcorn , and quite remarkable to be eating it fresh as early as july \u2013 one of the benefits of growing food in a polytunnel . it may be early in the season , but it has been a very long wait for me .", "i grew up in southern ontario , canada , near toronto , with a climate very suitable for growing corn \u2013 except for this year , with the droughts and heat wave seriously damaging many crops in the region . in the late summer many meals in our household were based around freshly harvested \u2018corn on the cob\u2019 , which had been purchased direct from a local farmer . it was a time of year that everyone eagerly anticipated , but the excellent quality of the sweetcorn spoiled me . unfortunately , or perhaps it is fortunate , i cannot tolerate the vacuum wrapped or frozen sweetcorn that is available for sale in ireland . i have gone without one of my favorite foods except when i happen to be back in canada during corn season . it has been 5 or 6 years , which is a long time to wait .", "this year was the first time that i have successfully grown a decent sweetcorn crop here in ireland . i tried a few times outside in gardens and allotments , but never produced more than a few kernels on a tiny cob . yesterday , i harvested 3 medium sized cobs , mostly full of kernels ! of course , they were not as good as the corn i grew up on , but considering the context , they were very much appreciated .", "in the last few decades , plant breeders have developed \u2018super - sweet\u2019 varieties , which store reasonably well . the older varieties , with their fuller flavor , do not keep as well , but grow better in irish conditions . the sugars in the kernels of these varieties start to convert to starch as soon as the cob is picked . even a few hours after harvesting , the flavor could have noticeably changed . for our meal last night , i followed the harvesting advice i learned as a kid :", "heat a large pot of salted water , and when it is almost boiling walk out to the field / garden . pick the cobs you are going to eat , then run back to the kitchen . husk them quickly and boil them until just tender . eat immediately with salt and lots of butter .", "water is one of the ways that copper may enter our bodies . the drinking of chlorinated water has been proved to an increased chance of developing colon cancer . therefore , you have to set up your hot water system carefully . the tankless water heaters are important part of the hot water system in our house . like most things involved in owning and caring for a home , tankless water heaters have always been full of promise and they are actually a lot more complex than you might think , especially when they were replacing an existing conventional water heater .", "installation was often complicated and costly installation is always a nightmare for homeowners even manufacturers haven\u2019t given up on the technology on improving the designs to make it easier to install . from the consumer reports , small tankless water heater can cost $ 120 - $ 350 for a unit and the installation can add $ 100 - $ 200 . while you will pay $ 800 - $ 3 , 000 or more a central tankless water heater , and the total cost will be increased up to $ 1 , 000 - $ 3 , 500 , includes the installation . how to reduce the cost of installation ? unless you\u2019re well experienced in this line that you can install the unit by yourself , it\u2019s smart to choose branded manufacturer because their advanced technology should make retrofit installations easier and less cost .", "inconsistent water temperatures this is another big bigger problem for house use . tankless water heaters are designed for providing plenty of hot water as long as the flow is high enough . one of the main reasons why the tankless water heater can\u2019t keep water temperatures due to the low water pressure . the low flow within your tankless unit results in shutting down the gas burner . the restriction in the hot water flow can cause inconsistent water temperatures as well because the mineral deposits block the shower head or faucet aerators . for the first situation , you should manually check the minimal required flow rate . the 2nd situation can be solved by cleaning every single of the unit .", "drawbacks even the on - demand water heaters come are more efficient than standard heaters as these innovations , but they are not for every family . for example , one of the most important aspects to be taken care of when it comes to tankless water heaters is exhaust venting . if the unit can\u2019t send out the high density heat , it could cause the heater to breakdown . regarding gas supply when you consider a tankless gas water heater . the same pressure and volume are important for heating water instantly by tankless water heaters . if you area doesn\u2019t have natural gas supply because of the extremely cold incoming ground water or your new house has not set up propane supply , a tankless model might not for your needs .", "do you suffer from back pain ? did you know that you can use herbal remedies to relieve back pain ? as people become more and more aware of the adverse side effects of painkillers and opioids , more and more are looking for alternatives to relieve pain . the good news is that there are many ways to ease the suffering without

cat\u2019s claw can be taken orally as a tablet , capsule or by drinking it in a tea . it has anti - inflammatory properties and aids in reducing swelling . inflammation and swelling are often associated with back problems like joint inflammation , spinal arthritis and herniated discs . while this particular herb is very helpful to treat the symptoms , it should be used in moderation as it

sensitivity . making it fantastic for conditions like muscle spasms , muscle injuries and other muscle related pain . valerian can cause drowsiness so is best taken at night .", "white willow bark white willow bark can be taken as a tablet or prepared as a tea . this remedy has been in use for centuries to treat inflammation . it contains salicin , a chemical with properties similar to aspirin ( acetylsalicylic acid ) which aids in pain reduction . while white willow bark has multiple benefits , it should be used in moderation as an overdose can lead to increased inflammation and worsen your pain and potentially cause other health concerns .", "there are many ways to treat the symptoms of back pain including the use of inversion therapy ( read inversion table reviews ) , floatation

risk categories does not necessarily mean their initial assessment was inaccurate .", "all taxa listed as critically endangered qualify for vulnerable and endangered , and all listed as endangered qualify for vulnerable . together these categories are described as ' threatened ' . the threatened categories form a part of the overall scheme . it will be possible to place all taxa into one of the categories ( see figure 1 ) .", "for listing as critically endangered , endangered or vulnerable there is a range of quantitative criteria ; meeting any one of these criteria qualifies a taxon for listing at that level of threat . each taxon should be evaluated against all the criteria . even though some criteria will be inappropriate for certain taxa ( some taxa will never qualify under these however close to extinction they come ) , there should be criteria appropriate for assessing threat levels for any taxon . the relevant factor is whether any one criterion is met , not whether all are appropriate or all are met . because it will never be clear in advance which criteria are appropriate for a particular taxon , each taxon should be evaluated against all the criteria , and all criteria met at the highest threat category must be listed .", "the different criteria ( a - e ) are derived from a wide review aimed at detecting risk factors across the broad range of organisms and the diverse life histories they exhibit . the quantitative values presented in the various criteria associated with threatened categories were developed through wide consultation , and they are set at what are generally judged to be appropriate levels , even if no formal justification for these values exists . the levels for different criteria within categories were set independently but against a common standard . broad consistency between them was sought .", "the criteria for the threatened categories are to be applied to a taxon whatever the level of conservation action affecting it . it is important to emphasise here that a taxon may require conservation action even if it is not listed as threatened . conservation actions which may benefit the taxon are included as part of the documentation requirements ( see annex 3 ) .", "the criteria are clearly quantitative in nature . however , the absence of high - quality data should not deter attempts at applying the criteria , as methods involving estimation , inference and projection are emphasised as being acceptable throughout . inference and projection may be based on extrapolation of current or potential threats into the future ( including their rate of change ) , or of factors related to population abundance or distribution ( including dependence on other taxa ) , so long as these can reasonably be supported . suspected or inferred patterns in the recent past , present or near future can be based on any of a series of related factors , and these factors should be specified as part of the documentation .", "taxa at risk from threats posed by future events of low probability but with severe consequences ( catastrophes ) should be identified by the criteria ( e . g . small distributions , few locations ) . some threats need to be identified particularly early , and appropriate actions taken , because their effects are irreversible or nearly so ( e . g . , pathogens , invasive organisms , hybridization ) .", "the data used to evaluate taxa against the criteria are often estimated with considerable uncertainty . such uncertainty can arise from any one or all of the following three factors : natural variation , vagueness in the terms and definitions used , and measurement error . the way in which this uncertainty is handled can have a strong influence on the results of an evaluation . details of methods recommended for handling uncertainty are included in annex 1 , and assessors are encouraged to read and follow these principles .", "in general , when uncertainty leads to wide variation in the results of assessments , the range of possible outcomes should be specified . a single category must be chosen and the basis for the decision should be documented ; it should be both precautionary and credible .", "when data are very uncertain , the category of ' data deficient ' may be assigned . however , in this case the assessor must provide documentation showing that this category has been assigned because data are inadequate to determine a threat category . it is important to recognize that taxa that are poorly known can often be assigned a threat category on the basis of background information concerning the deterioration of their habitat and / or other causal factors ; therefore the liberal use of ' data deficient ' is discouraged .", "listing in the categories of not evaluated and data deficient indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made , though for different reasons . until such time as an assessment is made , taxa listed in these categories should not be treated as if they were non - threatened . it may be appropriate ( especially for data deficient forms ) to give them the same degree of attention as threatened taxa , at least until their status can be assessed .", "all assessments should be documented . threatened classifications should state the criteria and subcriteria that were met . no assessment can be accepted for the iucn red list as valid unless at least one criterion is given . if more than one criterion or subcriterion is met , then each should be listed . if a re - evaluation indicates that the documented criterion is no longer met , this should not result in automatic reassignment to a lower category of threat ( downlisting ) . instead , the taxon should be re -

single threatening event can rapidly affect all individuals of the taxon present . the size of the location depends on the area covered by the threatening event and may include part of one or many

as any form of analysis which estimates the extinction probability of a taxon based on known life history , habitat requirements , threats and any specified management options . population viability analysis ( pva ) is one such technique . quantitative analyses should make full use of all relevant available data . in a situation in which there is limited information , such data as are available

short time period .", "e . quantitative analysis showing the probability of extinction in the wild is at least 10 % within 100 years .", "one of the simplest ways to represent uncertainty is to specify a best estimate and a range of plausible values . the best estimate itself might be a range , but in any case the best estimate should always be included in the range of plausible values . when data are very uncertain , the range for the best estimate might be the range of plausible values . there are various methods that can be used to establish the plausible range . it may be based on confidence intervals , the opinion of a single expert , or the consensus opinion of a group of experts . whichever method is used should be stated and justified in the documentation .", "an assessment using a point estimate ( i . e . single numerical value ) will lead to a single red list category . however , when a plausible range for each parameter is used to evaluate the criteria , a range of categories may be obtained , reflecting the uncertainties in the data . a single category , based on a specific attitude to uncertainty , should always be listed along with the criteria met , while the range of plausible categories should be indicated in the documentation ( see annex 3 ) .", "where data are so uncertain that any category is plausible , the category of ' data deficient ' should be assigned . however , it is important to recognize that this category indicates that the data are inadequate to determine the degree of threat faced by a taxon , not necessarily that the taxon is poorly known or indeed not threatened . although data deficient is not a threatened category , it indicates a need to obtain more information on a taxon to determine the appropriate listing ; moreover , it requires documentation with whatever available information there is .", "under section v ( the criteria for critically endangered , endangered and vulnerable ) there is a hierarchical alphanumeric numbering system of criteria and subcriteria . these criteria and subcriteria ( all three levels ) form an integral part of the red list assessment and all those that result in the assignment of a threatened category must be specified after the category . under the criteria a to c and d under vulnerable , the first level of the hierarchy is indicated by the use of numbers ( 1 - 4 ) and if more than one is met , they are separated by means of the ' + ' symbol . the second level is indicated by the use of the lower - case alphabet characters ( a - e ) . these are listed without any punctuation . a third level of the hierarchy under criteria b and c involves the use of lower case roman numerals ( i - v ) . these are placed in parentheses ( with no space between the preceding alphabet character and start of the parenthesis ) and separated by the use of commas if more than one is listed . where more than one criterion is met , they should be separated by semicolons . the following are examples of such usage :", "all assessments published on the iucn red list are freely available for public use . to ensure assessments are fully justified and to allow

( b ) a jump toward and to the right of the camera in which the body was raised by the front and middle legs to assume a higher take - off angle : body angle , 50\u00b0 ; take - off angle , 72\u00b0 ; take - off velocity , 4 . 0 m s - 1 ; body mass , 3 . 2 mg .", "philaenus had a mean take - off angle of 46 . 8\u00b12 . 0\u00b0 ( range 18\u00b0 to 90\u00b0 , n = 50 ) and a mode of 45\u00b0 ( fig . 10a ) . in the first few milliseconds after take - off the insect typically maintained a stable orientation , and in many jumps this continued until a landing feet - first on a vertical or horizontal surface . in other jumps , however , the body rotated about its long or transverse axes and occasionally about both axes ( fig . 10b ) . in the example shown , philaenus spun through four complete cycles during the first 50 ms after take - off . in a second jump , the abdomen started to rotate forward about the transverse axis 10 ms after take - off so that it rather than the head pointed forwards . in a third jump , the body began to rotate about its long axis after 10 ms and after 19 ms had rotated by 180\u00b0 so that the legs were pointed upwards . the rotation was completed 28 ms after take - off and then the next cycle of rotation began . in a fourth jump , the body first started to rotate about its long axis and then some 5 ms later also began to rotate about its transverse axis .", "in all species the wings remained folded during take - off , so that the movement was a pure jump powered by the hind legs and not assisted by active wing movements . occasionally , however , the wings were opened after take - off , and flapping flight was assumed though this did not always lead to sustained flight or even to maintaining the height attained by the initial jump ( fig . 11 ) .", "jump by cercopis . ( a ) sequential frames from the jump viewed from the side and captured at 2000 s - 1 with an exposure of 0 . 25 ms . ( b ) graph of the movements of six points on the body ( see cartoon inset ) during this jump . ( c ) sequential movements of the same six points superimposed on an image of cercopis in its starting position to show their vertical and horizontal displacement . the yellow arrows show the direction of the initial movements of the femoro - tibial joint . body angle at take - off , 16\u00b0 ; take - off angle , 45\u00b0 ; take - off velocity , 3 . 8m s - 1 ; body mass , 41 . 9 mg .", "the energy required to achieve this performance depends on body mass . in the heavier species such as cercopis the best jumps required 238\u03bc j but in the much lighter neophilaenus this fell to 28 \u03bcj ; philaenus required 136 \u03bcj . the power output in a jump depends on the time during which the energy is expended . in the 0 . 875 ms that philaenus took to accelerate its body the power output was thus 155 mw . the force exerted during the best jumps by philaenus was 66 mn . for the heavier cercopis the force was highest at 83 mn and for the lighter neophilaenus was lowest at 13 mn .", "jump by lepyronia . ( a ) two columns of sequential images from a jump captured at 4000 s - 1 and with an exposure of 0 . 25 ms . at the start , the body was raised at an angle of 61\u00b0 to the ground so that only the tips of the tarsi of the front and middle legs were in contact with the ground . ( b ) movements of five points on the body ( see image in c ) against time . ( c ) movements of the same body points to show their vertical and horizontal displacement . the black curved arrows show the direction of the initial movements of the femoro - tibial joint . body angle at take - off , 61\u00b0 ; take - off angle , 90\u00b0 ; take - off velocity , 4 . 0 m s - 1 ; body mass , 17 mg ; temperature , 36\u00b0c .", "in a laboratory chamber at a temperature of 25\u00b0c and in still air , the average height jumped by philaenus was 428\u00b126 mm ( n = 17 insects ) with the highest jumps reaching 700 mm , or 115 times its body length . none of the other species bettered these performances ; for example , in the same conditions aphrophora reached an average height of 263\u00b120 mm ( n = 13 ) . in a particular individual , jumping performance declined with increasing attempts to encourage jumping with the consequence that averaged values are likely to have underestimated the true jumping performance of these insects . the best indication of ability came by taking the maximal performance of particular individuals , which under laboratory conditions and temperatures may still be an underestimate .", "the orientation of the hind legs , and their key role in powering jumping , raised the question of whether this compromised their ability to contribute to walking . the striking feature of horizontal walking was that the hind legs did not show rhythmic movements in the walking pattern and were not sequentially placed on the ground and then lifted ( fig . 12a ) . instead they were held in the cocked position with the trochantera fully levated about the coxae so that the tarsi did not contact the ground . the hind legs were , however , used when climbing on a vertical surface on which there was limited traction ( fig . 12b ) . they moved rhythmically and were placed on the ground in time with the walking pattern so that they might therefore be expected to contribute thrust to the movement .", "( a ) trajectories of five jumps by the same philaenus . take - off angles are the average over the first 10 ms after take - off . ( b ) rotation of the body during a single jump by philaenus . a fixed point on the head in the vertical or in the horizontal plane was plotted against time . the body spins about its longitudinal ( y axis ) and transverse ( x ) axis undergoing five cycles of rotation in the first 70 ms that it is airborne . images were captured at 1000 s - 1 ; body mass , 12 mg .", "a jump in which aphrophora flapped its wings after take - off . the selected images captured at 1000 s - 1 and with an exposure of 0 . 25 ms are arranged in two columns . at take - off ( time 0 ms ) the wings were not opened . 5 ms later it started to lose height and 8 ms after take - off opened its hind wings and flapped them .", "the main thrust for jumping is provided by the hind legs . any contribution from the front and middle legs is limited as they are often lifted from the ground before movements of the hind legs begin . their primary responsibilities are therefore to provide a stable platform and to set the angle of the body and the take - off trajectory , by raising or lowering the anterior part of the body . the critical movement of the hind legs in generating the thrust for a jump is the depression of the trochantera about the coxae . before take - off , the hind legs are levated forwards at the coxo - trochanteral joints so that that the femora are tucked between the thorax and the middle legs and are apposed to the lateral and ventral surfaces of the coxae . the tibiae are also flexed about the femora . by contrast , the front and middle tibiae are held in their most forward positions at angles of 80 - 90\u00b0 to the longitudinal axis of the body . these critical actions of the hind legs in jumping are at the expense of their ability to contribute to the propulsion of the body in horizontal walking .", "in terms of the height jumped then philaenus comes out on top . its average height jumped was 428 mm with the best jumps attaining heights of 700 mm , or 115 times its body length . by contrast , in the same conditions aphrophora reached an average height of only 263 mm , or 27 times its body length . distance and height achieved will be determined by take - off velocity , take - off angle and by the drag . all the froghoppers achieve high take - off velocities ranging from 3 . 4 to 4 . 7 m s - 1 and average take - off angles are close to 45\u00b0 . drag will , however , be different because of the different body sizes and masses ( bennet - clark and alder , 1979 ) . the distance lost due to drag by philaenus is estimated to be about 25 % ( vogel , 2005 ) based on my data . the smaller neophilaenus would be expected to experience greater drag while the larger froghoppers should experience less .", "in terms of velocity , acceleration and force relative to body mass generated at take - off , then philaenus again comes out on top . it accelerates its body in less than 1 ms to achieve an average velocity over the first 3 ms of the jump of 4 . 7 m s - 1 . both neophilaenus and lepyronia approach but never better these velocities at take - off , but the heavier aphrophora and cercopis both take longer ( 1 . 5 ms ) to accelerate their bodies and achieve lower velocities .", "contribution of the hind legs of philaenus in walking . images were captured at 1000 s - 1 with an exposure of 0 . 5 ms . selected images , viewed ventrally , are shown at the times indicated . ( a ) horizontal walking . the middle and front legs were lifted in a sequence to perform a swing phase of similar duration ( thick black bars ) and contact the ground during a stance phase of variable duration ( thin blue bars ) . the hind legs did not move . ( b ) vertical walking in which the hind legs did contribute .", "fleas have been considered the best jumpers amongst the insects , accelerating their body within 1 ms to a take - off velocity of 1 m s - 1 ( bennet - clark and lucey , 1967 ; rothschild et al . , 1975 ; rothschild et al . , 1972 ) . froghoppers produce a substantially better jumping performance . philaenus accelerates its body to a take - off velocity that is more than 4 . 7 times faster than a flea despite having a body mass that is 27 times greater and a body that is four times longer . once airborne , however , the flea is likely to have its jumping distance reduced by 80 % due to drag compared to the 25 % reduction experienced by philaenus ( vogel , 2005 ) . heavier orthopteran insects such as locusts ( schistocerca gregaria ) with a mass of 1 - 2 g take 20 - 30 ms to extend their hind legs and accelerate their body ( brown , 1967 ) to a take - off velocity of 3 m s - 1 ( bennet - clark , 1975 ) while prosarthria teretrirostris with a mass of 280 mg takes 30 ms of acceleration to achieve a take - off velocity of 2 . 5 m s - 1 ( burrows and wolf , 2002 ) . the jumping distance of these larger insects is likely to be curtailed by only some 6 % due to drag ( vogel , 2005 ) . if jumping performance is expressed as the force exerted relative to body mass , then froghoppers again outperform other insects and other jumping animals . the force that froghoppers exert at take - off is more than 400 times their body weight and is , therefore , much higher than in other jumpers such as the flea ( \u223c135 times ) ( bennet - clark and lucey , 1967 ) , locust ( \u223c8 ) ( bennet - clark , 1975 ) and humans ( \u223c2 - 3 ) ( dowling and vamos , 1993 ) .", "potential predators of froghoppers are many and include birds , solitary wasps that provision their nests with froghoppers , and predatory social wasps or flies . parasitoids such as pipunculidae attack the pre - adult stages which are unable to jump . a further major danger may be unwitting predation by grazing mammals . they share this danger with all the other insects that live or feed on vegetation , but a rapid and long jump out of harm ' s way becomes advantageous . it may be that froghoppers are vulnerable while airborne and thus need to minimise exposure time in the air by jumping rapidly . this assessment of the value of jumping , however , poses further questions .", "the structural specialisations of the joints and the sequence of muscle actions that enable this remarkable jumping performance is analysed in two subsequent papers ( burrows , 2006 ; burrows , 2007 ) and further papers will explore the evolution of the particular jumping mechanisms in other families of these plant sucking bugs .", "i thank my cambridge colleagues for their help in collecting these bugs , for their constructive suggestions during the course of this work , and for their comments on the manuscript . this work was initiated at the wells field study centre , wells - next - the - sea , norfolk , england during an undergraduate field course , and i am most grateful to the warden christine marshall for the use of these facilities . some experiments were also carried out at the department of entomology , national institute of biology , ljubljana , slovenia and i am most grateful to dr meta virant and her colleagues for their support ."]}

[ 12 ] made an important advance by testing for analogous patterns of body size evolution in a non - insular system . specifically , they compared body sizes of animals living in deep - sea benthic habitats with their shallow - water living congeners . using the malacolog database version 3 . 3 . 3 of rosenberg [ 13 ] , mcclain et al . [ 12 ] took the gastropods of the western atlantic as a case study , and reported that a highly significant trend from dwarfism to gigantism was evident in the deep - sea species .", "here , i re - examine whether deep - sea gastropods manifest the island rule , making use of the improved statistical methods , and data collated from the recently updated malacolog database [ 24 ] , which has been both expanded , and revised to reflect advances in gastropod systematics [ 25 ] . it is found that the central conclusion of mcclain et al . [ 12 ] is robust , and that gastropod colonists of the deep - sea benthos do indeed exhibit island - rule - like evolution .", "to demonstrate the liberal nature of the standard tests of the island rule , consider results when deep - sea habitation is defined via the midpoint of the recorded depth range , i . e . , \u201cdeep - sea species\u201d have a range midpoint below 200m , and all other species are deemed \u201cshallow - water\u201d . with this definition , 254 genera contained both deep and shallow species , and their generic mean body sizes are plotted in figure 1a . applying the standard test [ 3 ] , [ 12 ] , the ordinary - least - squares regression slope ( dashed line ) is found to be highly significantly less than one ( n = 254 ; b = 0 . 902 ; t - test p = 0 . 0015 ) , which offers strong apparent support for the island rule . however , assigning species groups to the \u201cdeep\u201d or \u201cshallow\u201d categories at random , showed that even stronger support was obtained with \u223c43 % of 100 , 000 randomized data sets , suggesting that there is nothing exceptional in the trend observed in the true data . accordingly , the standardized - major - axis slope ( solid line ) was very close to one , and the permutation test showed no significant deviation from the pattern expected if deep - sea colonization had no effect on body size evolution ( n = 254 ; b = 1 . 020 ; permutation p = 0 . 476 ) .", "part a shows how different tests of the \u2018island rule\u2019 can give qualitatively different results . \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species were defined as those with a depth range midpoint > 200m , and all other species defined as \u201cshallow - water\u201d . the ordinary - least - squares regression ( dashed line ) differs significantly from the 1\u22361 line of the null ( dotted line ) , but the standardized - major - axis regression ( solid line ) shows no significant departure . part b shows a less ambiguous case : \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species are those never observed above 400m , and \u201cshallow - water\u201d species those never observed below 200m ; body sizes are within - genus means , taking equal numbers of deep - and shallow - water species in each genus .", "averaging across species has untested statistical properties [ 30 ] , but it does have the advantage of reducing noise and the influence of anomalous data . for example , figure 1b plots results for balanced samples with \u201cdeep - sea\u201d defined as > 400m . these data are clearly noisy , and the slope is strongly influenced by a single outlier ( the largest value on both axes ) . this point represents the genus fasciolaria , which contains just a single deep - sea species , the recently discovered fasciolaria tephrina [ 32 ] . to restrict the influence of such isolated observations , mcclain et al . [ 12 ] excluded from their analyses all genera with fewer than two shallow and two deep species . despite reducing sample size by \u223c2 / 3 , this procedure strengthens the observed effect , with a highly significant departure from the null now apparent at the shallowest cutoff depth ( table 1 part b ; figure 2 ) .", "the body sizes of deep - sea gastropods are plotted against those of their shallow - water congeners . \u201cshallow - water\u201d species were never observed below 200m , and \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species never observed above depths of a : 200m , b : 400m and c : 600m . separate standardized - major - axis regression lines are shown for the neogastropoda ( black points ) and all other groups ( grey points ) . the dotted line is the 1\u22361 expected under the null . genera with fewer than two deep and two shallow species were excluded .", "this study has confirmed the important findings of mcclain et al . [ 12 ] that the marine gastropods of the western atlantic show a pattern of body size evolution that is analogous to the island rule , with colonists of the deep - sea benthos tending to converge in size in a graded trend ( see also [ 16 ] ) . no evidence was found of phylogenetic heterogeneity in the strength of the observed effect , as results for the neogastropoda alone were indistinguishable from those for the remaining taxa . in contrast , the strength of the effect did increase systematically with range depth , with deeper - sea species showing a stronger tendency to converge in size . nevertheless , the effect is still apparent in species inhabiting the mesopelagic zone ( 200\u20131000m ) , and so cannot be attributed to unique features of abyssal ecology .", "since the pattern was first identified [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 3 ] the island rule has been explained in a large number of ways [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 11 ] . a powerful method of distinguishing between the competing explanations is to test for the presence of analogous patterns in systems that share some , but not all of the ecological characteristics of island habitats [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 34 ] . for example , one putative contributor to the vertebrate pattern is \u201cimmigrant selection\u201d , that is , between - lineage differences in the probability of reaching isolated islands , as opposed to differences in survival after colonisation [ 4 ] , [ 35 ] , [ 36 ] . the colonization of the deep - sea benthos differs clearly and qualitatively from the colonization of islands , and so if it is assumed that the similar patterns of body size evolution reflect a similarity of underlying cause [ 12 ] , this argues against immigrant selection as a key determinant of the graded trend that is observed in both cases .", "similarly , predator release is a particularly plausible explanation of the vertebrate island rule [ 1 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 6 ] , [ 11 ] ; this is partly because it can naturally account for both dwarfism and gigantism ( by assuming that large and small body sizes evolve as alternative strategies for predator avoidance ) , and partly because predator release is so clearly implicated in other unusual characteristics of island endemics ( such as tameness ) [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] . but there is little evidence that reduced predation characterises the deep - sea [ 12 ] , [ 14 ] , and indeed there is direct evidence of substantial predation acting on deep - sea gastropods [ 12 ] , [ 39 ] \u2013 [ 41 ] . the gastropod results therefore argue against the predator release hypothesis as a general explanation of the island rule [ 12 ] .", "we are therefore still far from understanding the causes of the patterns observed \u2013 and particularly the roles of inter - and intra - specific competition [ 3 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] . a detailed clarification of where the pattern does and does not hold will be an important step toward achieving this goal [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 20 ] .", "many thanks are due to andrew rambaut for providing a script to mine the malacolog database . many thanks also to lucy weinert , nicolas bierne , gary rosenberg , shai meiri . simon joly and an anonymous reviewer , who all greatly improved the manuscript with their comments and advice .", "conceived and designed the experiments : jw . performed the experiments : jw . analyzed the data : jw . wrote the paper : jw .", "foster jb ( 1964 ) evolution of mammals on islands . nature 202 : 234\u2013235 .", "van valen l ( 1973 ) pattern and balance in nature . evolutionary theory 1 : 31\u201349 .", "lomolino mv ( 1985 ) body size of mammals on islands : the island rule re - examined . am nat 125 : 310\u2013316 .", "lomolino mv ( 2005 ) body size evolution in insular vertebrates : generality of the island rule . j biogeog 32 : 1683\u20131699 .", "macarthur rh , wilson eo ( 1963 ) an equilibrium theory of insular zoogeography . evolution 17 : 373\u2013387 .

year - old candice berner was attacked and killed in 2010 by two or more wolves while jogging near the village of chignik lake on the alaska peninsula . wolf dna was recovered from berner ' s clothing and matched dna from wolves later shot in the area . the forensic evidence was consistent with the injuries to berner and the wolf tracks found around her body . both victims were fed upon . wolf attacks in canada are linked to habituation .", "a pack of mackenzie river wolves , normally found in north america , had been a feature at the highland wildlife park , kincraig , near aviemore , since 1972 .", "pack dynamic is the term used to describe how every wolf knows its place within its group .", "this hierarchy continues down through the pack to the omega wolf , which is usually picked on by the others .", "range : original range \u2013 northwest territories , canada current range \u2013 east of the mackenzie river , from the arctic coast to south of great bear lake . possibly as far south as great slave lake . northwest territories , canada", "the catchy name \" mackenzie river husky \" was coined from newcomers seeing the freight huskies and not being able to differentiate the different villages while passing through an area . the locals knew the huskies by their different villages , naming them accordingly : old crow dogs , ft . mcpherson dogs , arctic red dogs , porcupine river dogs , hay river dogs , etc . the name really took hold in the 1960\u0092s , from which the distortions grew , especially as the freight husky began to disappear .", "status like most other wolves , human activity ( hunting , trapping , etc . ) is by far the greatest threat . however , protection given to the mackenzie valley wolf has allowed its population to increase drammatically . the wolf population in alaska was estimated between 7 , 000 and 10 , 000 in 2006 . wolf population in the northern rocky mountains ( greater yellowstone area , nw montana , and idaho ) was estimated to be about 1200 and increasing . the u . s . fish and wildlife services has decided to remove the gray wolf from the federal endangered list in the northern rockies and the western great lakes . courts have overturned attempts in the past to remove them from the list . legal battles are expected .", "the mackenzie valley wolf weighs from 100 to 145 pounds . one weighing 175 pounds was caught in alaska in 1939 . their average length is from 5 to 7 feet in length , from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail . they can reach speeds of 40 miles per hour and travel as many as 70 miles per day . their coat consists of an outer layer composed of coarse guard hairs and a soft undercoat . they moult in late spring . the most common coat color is grey flecked with black , with lighter underparts , but individuals and populations also occur that are red , brown , black or almost pure white . the mackenzie valley wolf is no longer considered endangered .", "the \" mackenzie river husky \" is a catch all name , that can describe vastly different dogs depending on who is using that name . it can be used as follows : the mythical best northern sled dog ever ; as a sales tool to sell mixed breed mutts or unwanted litters ; in plain ignorance because someone said that\u0092s what the dog was ; someone trying to recreate the breed based on the falsehood that they are a mix of wolf , malamute and st . bernard or some other unlikely working dog combination ion ; or the truth that they are a freight husky , all but extinct .", "a spokeswoman for the park said the catalyst for recent problems was that the pack ' s leader died of natural causes some time ago and the female did not accept the next male wolf in the pecking order .", "habitat mackenzie valley wolves inhabit much of western canada and alaska including unimak island . in 1995 -

1960\u0092s under the guise of eradicating rabies ; and profitable sled dog racing that resulted in the development of a breed of small , high strung , running machines .", "what has allowed me to find breeding stock is the 1960\u0092s movement that sent vietnam vets , draft dodgers , and hippies to the interior of alaska to try a subsistence life style . a few hardy souls remain in bush communities that still have these huskies and a few crusty old trappers . the few i found in canada were so intermingled with the racing lines , that little of the old blood line remains . if anyone knows differently , please contact me .", "i remain a coordinator in my efforts to bring these dogs back . i personally have two litters a year . searching continually for new quality males to breed to my females as i expand my breeding pool for the future . i\u0092 m going into this with the firm understanding that its a 20 year project and there are no shortcuts that i\u0092m willing to take . i follow each of the pups through their lifetime to insure that my breeding program is on track . i depend on \" my people \" to help me with this project by their willingness to follow my guidelines for breeding , having pups and suitable placement . this is not a one person job short of having hundreds of huskies , which i am unwilling to do . this is truly a labor of love on my part to keep these huskies from extinction . the pups currently sell for $ 250 including worming , first shots and vet exam . hopefully , this project will continue to snowball so that there will be more available in the future with less restrictions . if you\u0092re interested , you must keep in contact with me and be patient .", "copyright \u00a9 1997 -

[ 1 ] \u2013 [ 6 ] ) . the discovery of these remarkable fossils in the mid - 1970s has been followed by a sequence of investigations revealing , among other things , morphological details of exceptional interest for understanding the evolution of , and relationships among , early arthropods . the famous \u2018orsten\u2019 taxa have provided significant insights into the cambrian biota and early phanerozoic metazoan evolution .", "the \u2018orsten\u2019 metazoans are represented by ecdysozoans ( moulting animals ) , including the scalidophoran nemathelminths and arthropods , all in the size range of 2 mm or less ( e . g . [ 3 ] \u2013 [ 5 ] , [ 7 ] ) . most of the fossils are arthropods ; they include lobopodians , tardigrades , pentastomids , chelicerates , agnostoids , phosphatocopines and skaracarids [ 4 ] .", "by contrast to the phosphatised \u2018orsten\u2019 taxa , the conventional record of shelly fossils in the uppermost mid - cambrian through furongian of sweden is dominated by agnostoids and polymerid ( in particular olenid ) trilobites ( e . g . [ 8 ] \u2013 [ 11 ] ) , commonly occurring in great abundance in shales and limestones . although approximately one hundred fairly well - preserved , juvenile specimens of the agnostoid agnostus pisiformis have been recovered in \u2018orsten\u2019 - type preservation [ 2 ] , only one specimen interpreted as a polymerid trilobite hypostome with associated soft tissues has hitherto been discovered [ 12 ] . this collectively suggests that the arthropod faunas of this age are taphonomically biased and that the dominance of polymerids and agnostoids in the conventional fossil record does not necessarily represent the true , original faunal composition of arthropods .", "the external morphology of the \u2018orsten\u2019 species has been thoroughly described ( e . g . [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 7 ] and references therein ) . however , the internal organs and tissues ( such as intestines and muscles ) of these fossils have rarely been addressed [ 4 ] . m\u00fcller and walossek ( [ 13 ] : pl . 1 , fig . 8 ) noted that a preserved \u2018steinkern\u2019 of skara might represent the gut , an assumption that is confirmed in the present investigation . moreover , maas et al . ( [ 4 ] : fig . 4e , f ) noted the preservation of guts , which they observed in skaracarids with a cracked - open cuticula . in the same paper , maas et al . documented a pentastomid arthropod with exposed muscle strands in the head region ( [ 4 ] : fig . 4g ) , which they referred to as the only known example of unequivocally internal matter in \u2018orsten\u2019 - type preservation .", "the limited knowledge of internal anatomy is a tantalizing drawback of the \u2018orsten\u2019 fossils and limits the extent to which palaeobiological conclusions can be drawn . the present investigation provides , by using synchrotron radiation x - ray tomographic microscopy ( srxtm ) , a chance to at least partly overcome that problem . our use of srxtm and 3d - rendering techniques applied to specimens of well known \u2018orsten\u2019 taxa from the cambrian of sweden has enabled internal structures to be revealed , a task that would be difficult with conventional techniques such as scanning electron microscopy ( sem ) . moreover , being a non - invasive technique , srxtm allows for internal structures of unique fossils to be studied without destroying the specimens . our work therefore provides a promising approach to understand the internal anatomy and functional morphology of these exceptionally well - preserved microscopic animals .", "mount kinnekulle is an erosional outlier in the province of v\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland , south - central sweden , comprising cambrian to silurian strata capped by dolerite intruded as sills during carboniferous through permian times [ 14 ] , [ 15 ] . the uppermost middle cambrian through furongian ( uppermost cambrian ) strata of mount kinnekulle crop out in a few natural exposures and a number of abandoned alum shale quarries ( e . g . [ 3 ] : fig . 2 ; [ 8 ] : fig . 18 ; [ 16 ] : fig . 2 ) . these strata consist of interfingering beds and layers of black alum shale and bituminous limestone ( colloquially referred to as \u2018stinkstone\u2019 or \u2018orsten\u2019 ) . agnostoids and polymerid trilobites , predominantly olenids , occur frequently in the succession . biostratigraphically , the exposed succession spans the lejopyge laevigata zone through the peltura lobata zone of the alum shale formation [ 17 ] ; however , several stratigraphic gaps occur within the succession [ 14 ] .", "the material reported herein was collected from the \u2018transformatorstationen\u2019 locality at blomberg , on the southwestern part of mount kinnekulle ( n58\u00b032 . 558\u2032 ; e13\u00b019 . 910\u2032 ) . this locality exposes less than 2 m of bituminous limestones with a few , thin alum shale beds . all \u2018orsten\u2019 samples were collected from the lowermost part of the exposure and belong to the agnostus pisiformis zone ( guzhangian stage , or uppermost mid - cambrian ) . the required permits for the described field studies were obtained from the land owner .", "in the search for phosphatised \u2018orsten\u2019 fossils we followed the results of maeda et al . [ 6 ] and targeted coprolite - rich beds . slabs of such lithology , weighing approximately 0 . 5\u20134 kg each , were digested in ph - monitored buffered acetic acid , following the techniques described by jeppsson et al . [ 18 ] . the ph was adjusted to > 3 . 6 in order to avoid corrosion of phosphatic fossils . after digestion the resulting residue was rinsed through a 63 \u00b5m sieve cloth . subsequently , the residue was gently washed into a glass vial with deionized water in order to prevent growth of mould and algae . the residue was carefully investigated for exceptionally preserved microfossils under a binocular light microscope . specimens of interest were handpicked using a fine brush and stored submerged in water , to avoid damage prior to analyses .", "the \u2019orsten\u2019 arthropods analysed and discussed herein include one specimen ( the only one recovered from our sample residues ) of skara minuta , two phosphatocopines assigned to hesslandona sp . , and one phosphatocopine assigned to hesslandona trituberculata ( see [ 3 ] ) . approximately 15 phosphatocopines with ventral body details were recovered from our residues . for this pilot study , the three most complete and well - preserved specimens were selected for analysis , in order to increase the chance of finding internal soft - tissue structures .", "all figured \u2018orsten\u2019 specimens are stored at the department of geology , lund university , lund , sweden , with repository number lo ( for lund original ) .", "the transmission electron microscope ( tem ) micrographs of the extant mystacocarid derocheilocaris typica were prepared at the department of biology , lund university , sweden , using the procedure described in detail by elofsson and hessler [ 19 ] . the scanning electron microscope ( sem ) methods , including fixation techniques , and set - up for the same extant crustaceans were described by elofsson and hessler [ 20 ] . complementary sem studies of fossil specimens were performed using a hitachi s - 3400n instrument at the department of geology , lund university , sweden .", "diagenetic phosphatisation can produce a variety of shapes and textures that may be mistaken for fossilised soft tissues [ 24 ] \u2013 [ 26 ] . herein , criteria such as symmetry , position within the body cavity , continuity and , perhaps most importantly , comparisons with equivalent structures in extant crustaceans with a similar degree of development , have formed the basis for our assessments and allowed structures to be distinguished from taphonomic and / or diagenetic artefacts ( cf . [ 4 ] , [ 13 ] ) .", "the skara minuta specimen ( lo 11408t ) measures 400 \u00b5m in length ( note , however , that the posterior portion is lacking ) and 130 \u00b5m in width and is preserved in minute detail ( fig . 1a\u2013e ) . in addition to the cephalothorax and the first two thoracic segments , the specimen includes the proximal portions of the first and second antennae , mandibles , first and second maxillae , and maxillipeds ( fig . 1b , c , e ) . for a detailed description of s . minuta , as well as the other known skaracarid species from sweden , skara anulata , see m\u00fcller and walossek [ 13 ] . herein , we focus on the preserved internal tissues .", "( a ) dorsal , ( b ) lateral , ( c ) anterior , ( d ) posterior , and ( e ) ventral views . abbreviations : a1 , first antenna ; a2 , second antenna ; am , arthrodial membrane ; ct , cephalothorax ; la , labrum ; md , mandible ; mx1 , first maxilla ; mx2 , second maxilla ; mxp , maxilliped ; r , rostrum ; som , site of mouth ; ts1 , first thoracic segment ; ts2 , second thoracic segment .", "the central space of the animal contains structures interpreted as the digestive system , which is composed of the oesophagus ( or foregut ) and the midgut ( figs . 1d , 2a\u2013c ) . the oesophagus is a uniform structure approximately 100 \u00b5m long and 20 \u00b5m in diameter . it has a fairly straight course from the mouth to the midgut due to the forwardly positioned and ventrally directed mouth ( figs . 1e , 2a ) . the short transition zone from oesophagus to midgut is indistinct ( collapsed ) in our specimen and we cannot establish whether it is an oesophagus telescoping into the midgut ( see below ) or a widened portion of the posterior oesophagus . therefore , the simplified schematic drawing ( fig . 3 ) merely shows the transition zone as a simple tube . on the other hand , the midgut appears rather well preserved in the animal and distinct from the oesophagus , as judged also by the size and similarity to those structures in extant crustaceans . the midgut is approximately 40 \u00b5m in diameter and the irregular lumen is clearly visible in cross - section ( fig . 2b , c ) . midgut glands are not observed in our specimen .", "( a ) ventral view ( cropped isosurface ) showing the oesophagus , parts of the midgut and a dorsal transverse tendon .

[ 29 ] ( see also [ 3 ] , [ 30 ] ) . the internal structures in our specimens are compared to similar relevant structures in extant crustacean relatives .", "dahl [ 31 ] investigated the topography of the crustacean head . in crustaceans filtering food particles from a current produced by the appendages , the mouth opening is ventral and directed backwards and the oesophagus makes a curve in the back of the head to meet the midgut . with other modes of feeding , exemplified as browsing and gnawing , the mouth is more anterior in position and the oesophagus is more or less straight . dahl [ 31 ] concluded that there is a correlation between the mode of feeding and the topography of the anterior head region . he also postulated that filter - feeding was the ancestral feeding mode of crustaceans .", "the simplest form of intestine in crustaceans , such as cephalocarids and mystacocarids ( fig . 5 ) , consists of an oesophagus that joins the midgut without intervening structures [ 19 ] , [ 33 ] , a condition normally occurring in filter - feeding animals . skara minuta has a similarly simple structure although in this case with a presumed alternative mode of feeding .", "m\u00fcller and walossek ( [ 13 ] : 22 ) noted that numerous external muscle scars observed on various parts of the body of skara indicate a great number of muscles . however , because no internal structures were preserved , m\u00fcller and walossek [ 13 ] found it speculative to reconstruct or interpret internal features based only on the muscle scars . in this study , we are able to address some of these issues .", "arthropods develop specific internal attachments for muscles . in extant taxa they are connective , i . e . formed by muscle tendons ( figure 5 ) , or cuticular formed by invaginations from the cuticle ( apodemes ) , or a combination of both . the attachment sites can detach from the cuticle and epidermis and form an internal skeleton . the endoskeletal variation is considerable within arthropod taxa [ 34 ] . the attachment sites can be both intersegmental and intrasegmental . trunk segments are usually equipped with dorsal and ventral transverse structures for the insertion of dorsal and ventral longitudinal muscles as well as dorso - ventral and extrinsic limb muscles ( e . g . [ 27 ] ) . more complicated endoskeletal bars and plates are found in the head region where intersegmental and intrasegmental elements coalesce . the latter are situated above and close to the ventral nerve cord .", "in the s . minuta specimen analysed , two structures are interpreted as endoskeletal remains . dorsally , in the trunk segments below the arthrodial membrane ( fig . 1d ) , transverse thickenings , or tendons ( fig . 2a , b ) , indicate longitudinal muscles of a size that would allow great flexibility , similar to those of the highly movable cephalocarids [ 27 ] .", "the head plate consists of a combination of endoskeleton and muscles . the fossil material does not allow a separation between the two . since no apodemes were found in our specimen it is likely that the endoskeletal structures were tendon - like and thus not particularly elaborate . the muscles to the head appendages are large , especially those associated with the second antennae and mandibles . this indicates muscle strength and a good capacity to handle food in a mode described above .", "the labral muscle equipment has been investigated in some extant crustaceans . a highly movable labrum was described for species belonging to the conchostracan phyllopod genus caenesteriella by larink [ 35 ] . six pairs of essentially dorso - ventral muscles line up along the long axis of the labrum . the distal swelling of the labrum contains a network of muscles . a pair of longitudinal muscles insert proximally in the ventral portion of the labrum and in the head behind the compound eyes . the dorso - ventral muscles flatten the labrum and the longitudinal muscles open the buccal cavity . together , these two functions aid in the collection of food .", "similar functions are found in the cephalocarid crustacean hutchinsoniella macracantha [ 32 ] . two groups of dorso - ventral muscles widen the labrum and the buccal cavity . one longitudinal muscle pair spans the ventral length of the labrum and one other muscle pair , which is dorso - ventrally inserted into the ventral labral surface and into the dorsal head - shield , opens the buccal cavity . a transverse muscle pair counters the movement of the dorso - ventral muscles .", "the functional pattern is repeated in the mystacocarid crustacean derocheilocaris remanei [ 33 ] which has three pairs of dorso - ventral muscles inside the labrum and two pairs for operating the labrum . one pair inserts longitudinally into the middle of the dorsal surface of the labrum and into the head , and the other pair extends from the labrum to the dorsal head capsule .", "the musculature of the labrum of extant crustaceans can serve as a template only in a functional context . a strict morphological pattern serving all crustacean taxa is not present .", "the longitudinal muscle pair found in the phosphatocopine specimens fulfils one of the above - discussed functions , namely moving the labrum up and down , thus opening the buccal cavity . a speculative explanation for the appearance of musculature in the labrum from an evolutionary point of view is that opening of the buccal cavity could take preference over a more sophisticated armament , allowing also a flattening of the labrum . the lack of dorso - ventral muscles in the investigated phosphatocopines may imply that these muscles appeared at a later stage in the evolution of crustaceans ; however , it could also simply be a preservational artefact .", "video clip showing the labrum of hesslandona sp .

passing - touchdown , 942 - rushing - yard effort in 1990 , his running backs were 1970s - style plodders anthony toney and keith byars . his receivers were pretty good , but the eagles offensive lines of the era were built out of steroid violators , converted defensive linemen and other assorted castoffs and buddy ryan experiments .", "the letter was undated , but found among specimens dated from 1928 , addressed to \u201cgeorge and alice . \u201d the wounds from the great war were starting to heal after a decade of peace and rebuilding , the great depression was not even a shadow of a thought , fitzgerald\u2019s famous book had exploded in popularity ; the jazz age was truly in full swing . somewhere out there was mary , trading through fields collecting dragonflies .", "faulk gained over 1 , 000 rushing and receiving yards in 1999 . he led the league in touchdowns in 2000 and 2001 . he averaged no less than 5 . 3 yards per rush for three consecutive years , leading the league each year and supplementing the rushing production with over 80 receptions per season . faulk wasn ' t just the nfl ' s best playmaker from 1999 through 2001 . he was the best player , period .", "we will start discussing and examining lepidoptera in late november . scales are certainly a contributing factor to lepidoptera\u2019s diversity , and their patterns are important for determining species . is their a great read about lep scales ? or should we focus our discussion on host plat relationships , chemical defense , moth avoidance , proboscis morphology \u2026 ? photo by johan j . ingles -

two punch is what earned him a spot on this countdown .", "the various woody areas of the kruger national park offer many suitable shelters and habitats , from mopane forests near mopani rest camp to tree - rich woodland areas found in scattered areas throughout the park . trees with natural holes in them are preferred by most squirrel species , because of its use as a shelter and place in which to raise young . the more trees in a woodland area the better for these animals , whether it be acacia thorn trees or larger trees . their main food source is also found within trees ; seeds . they also spread seeds around large trees to facilitate regrowth , thereby giving back what they take and keeping up their end of the symbiotic relationship they share with trees .", "hester holds the nfl record with 20 non - offensive touchdowns . that ' s an astounding number for a modern player , particularly one who played on offense ( defenders can mix in some pick - sixes with their kick and punt returns ) . hester was also a capable screens - and - bombs receiver stuck in largely bad offenses for much of his career . but he was at his best when he could specialize in the dying art of fielding kicks and punts .", "in modern football , trippi would be a cross between christian mccaffrey , terrelle pryor and jabrill peppers , with a dash of marquette king sprinkled in . great prospects like these still leave college for an nfl befuddled about how best to make use of their gifts . for trippi , the chicago cardinals tried a little of everything , and it worked . today ' s nfl teams can still learn something from their post - wwii forebears . give great playmakers the ball . worry about the labels later .", "given 18 inches of daylight , gale sayers performed feats that are still dazzling over half a century later . he jump -

to - late ' 70s . with tarkenton and many of the vikings stars already well past their prime when everything came together , they had a habit of finishing one or two games shy of a championship .", "yet in the mid - 2000s , it was still possible for a return man to be a great team ' s most valuable offensive player , as hester proved for the bears . his six return touchdowns in the 2006 regular season and playoffs helped a team with a blundering offense come within a rainy day run - in with peyton manning of winning a super bowl . when he wasn ' t taking a kickoff to the house , he was forcing opponents to squib kick to avoid him , giving the bears offense the field position it desperately needed to muster a few points .", "on this list of all - time playmakers , it must be noted that vick spent what should have been his prime either in jail or rebuilding the nfl ' s trust on the eagles bench . he robbed himself of those great years , and it cost him a chance to be the best playmaker ever . he doesn ' t even rank first among our quarterbacks . but vick is in a category all his own , as both an athlete and cultural figure . few inspire more complex emotions . the off - field ugliness was undeniable . but so was the on - field beauty .", "they are most active , out and about during the daytime , making them diurnal creatures , but spend most of their time in trees , on branches and between leaves where the sun\u2019s grasp on them is not that strong . they mostly forage for food during this time , but keep a careful lookout for any predator that might come walking or flying by , because squirrels overall , especially juvenile squirrels , are very vulnerable and are almost last on the food chain . they also groom and socialize vocally with one another during the day , checking for parasites and keeping up their appearance and hygiene .", "call these players products of brady and the patriots system if you like . but several of these players ( like welker ) have had success elsewhere , and the system itself points the way to the future . the patriots used to be alone in plucking guys like welker off other rosters or drafting and grooming edelman types for slot receiver roles . copycats are catching on , and players like christian mccaffrey can now enter the draft marketing themselves as patriots - style weapons , even as television analysts shrug their shoulders and ask \" what position does he play ? \" like it ' s still 1977 .", "speaking of ryan experiments : buddy held the very concept of coordinating a modern offense in near contempt . cunningham ' s job was to drop back and make stuff happen , whether it was a bomb to fred barnett or calvin williams , a pirouetting ballet recital of a scramble or some combination of both . sometimes , the results were highlights that will be remembered forever , like the 95 - yard touchdown to barnett or the apparent carl banks sack that cunningham turned into a touchdown pass to jimmie giles . sometimes , cunningham spent whole afternoons running for his life on 3rd - and - 25 .", "when grange joined the nfl in 1925 , it changed perceptions about professional football . his presence at a bears road game could put a struggling host team in the black for the season . fans came to see the most dynamic , elusive all - purpose weapon of that primitive era . grange ran , passed and returned punts in an era when punt returns were much more integral to the game than they are now . football before grange was college lads clobbering each other in the mud . grange introduced quickness and grace to the sport . he was , quite literally , the nfl ' s first playmaker ."]}

j\u00f6rger and schr\u00f6dl 2013 ; tripp and lendemer 2014 ) , and the approach is only slowly becoming more common ( fig . 1 ) .", "by november 2015 , 98 molecular diagnoses of species of acoelomorpha , alveolata , angiospermae , annelida , arachnida , arthropoda , ascomycota , chordata ( reptilia and pisces ) , fungi , lepidoptera , mollusca , and nematoda have been published ( table 1 ) . relatively few protologs refrain from also providing a morphological description ( brower 2010 ;

( 2010 ) , it is often quicker and cheaper to use diagnostic dna features than to rely on the traditional expert - centered paradigm of identification ."]}

year life cycle of lamyctes emarginatus is a strategy that allows this species to populate the same habitats as lamyctes curtipes \u2013 a species of a similar body size and probably very similar ecological requirements . adult specimens of the annual species lamyctes emarginatus appear in the environment in the summer and fall , when there is enough food to suffice for perennial species , such as lamyctes curtipes .", "the riparian forest habitat is dominated by lamyctes curtipes \u2013 a species that prefers wet and humid habitats with high vegetation cover . this species , was found alive after 34 days of inundation ( adis and junk 2002 ) . in central europe it inhabits primarily riparian forests , alder swamp forests , river and brook sides , wet meadows with flooding and more rarely humid deciduous forests ( voigtl\u00e4nder 2005 ) . in the investigated area a small number of the specimens of this species was also collected from dry and xerothermic habitats ( table 1 ) . it can be assumed that these specimens have only immigrated from surrounding habitats , and they do not form stable populations in these habitats .", "most species in the bug river valley inhabit thermophilous thickets \u2013 an environment that is already similar to forest habitats . this is clearly manifested by the composition of chilopoda community , in which we can find typically forest - dwellers \u2013 such as lithobius mutabilis or strigamia acuminata .", "our results confirm the need to protect xerothermic habitats , unique almost throughout entire central europe , which due to their dispersion and their small area covered are fairly easily subject to the process of destruction . these environments are refuges for rare species of animals \u2013 including centipedes , as our research shows . lithobius dudichi presumably belongs to the relict xerothermic species of steppe provenance and is presumably in danger of extinction .", "the results from our research in the bug valley also show that centipedes are a valuable indicator group for the assessment of habitat conditions . the information about the species composition of chilopoda communities , the dominance structure and their dynamics may thus be useful in characterizing specific location types .", "we wish to extend our gratitude to karin voigtl\u00e4nder and ivan tuf for the extremely valuable comments to the first version of the manuscript .", "m . sta\u0144ska and i . hajdamowicz were supported by grant of siedlce university of sciences and humanities 222 / 05 / s .", "terrestrial invertebrates inhabiting lowland river floodplains of central amazonia and central europe : a review .", "[ tausend -

in the serran\u00eda de huanchaca , while the second is arboricolous and associated with seasonally dry forests [ 4 ] , [ 121 ] . tropidurus xanthochilus and its sister species widely distributed in the chaco , t . spinulosus , were previously suggested to have parapatric distribution where the forests of the tarvo and paragu\u00e1 rivers intergrade with the semideciduous chiquitano dry forest [ 4 ] . however , the closest known populations of t . spinulosus is located 350 km south of the type locality of t . xanthochilus [ 4 ] , and despite the distributional data are scarce , the range of these species as currently known still define allopatric distributions [ 5 ] . tropidurus callathelys is also allopatric in relation to its sister species , t . melanopleurus , which occupies the andean foothills from northern argentina to southern peru [ 5 ] . indeed , the distribution and phylogenetic relationships of both species pairs effectively suggest a single vicariant event as responsible for the origin of the species endemic to huanchaca . however , no data is currently available to provide an effective test of the temporal congruence between speciation events . to assess the timing of these events is not only essential to properly test the hypothesis of a common diversification history , but also to identify the vicariant processes involved .", "carvalho , a . l . g .

, son escasos los estudios sobre uso del espacio y distribuci\u00f3n espacial . en este trabajo se estudi\u00f3 la organizaci\u00f3n espacial del lagarto sax\u00edcola tropidurus torquatus basado en la poblaci\u00f3n interiorana de uno afloramiento rocoso en el estado de minas gerais , sudeste del brasil . los lagartos fueron individualmente marcados y observados durante las estaciones reproductiva y no reproductiva . con el m\u00e9todo del m\u00ednimo pol\u00edgono convexo fue encontrado que el tama\u00f1o promedio del dominio vital de los machos durante la estaci\u00f3n reproductiva fue m\u00e1s grande que el de las hembras y en la estaci\u00f3n no reproductiva hembras y machos mantuvieron dominios vitales similares en el tama\u00f1o . el m\u00e9todo de la media arm\u00f3nica mostr\u00f3 que el tama\u00f1o promedio del area de vida de machos fue mayor que el area de las hembras en ambas estaciones . como esperado para una especie polig\u00ednica , el n\u00famero medio de machos con dominios vitales sobrepuestos a los de las hembras tendi\u00f3 a ser m\u00e1s grande en la estaci\u00f3n reproductiva . intrasexualmente , el n\u00famero de hembras con sus dominios vitales asociados a los de otras hembras tambi\u00e9n fue mayor en la estaci\u00f3n reproductiva . para los machos , este n\u00famero permaneci\u00f3 bajo en ambas estaciones , lo que sugiere que los machos usan areas m\u00e1s exclusivas , mientras los dominios vitales m\u00e1s peque\u00f1os de las hembras al parecer sostengan una mayor densidad de individuos durante la estaci\u00f3n reproductiva . la frecuencia de uso de los microh\u00e1bitats relacionados a la vegetaci\u00f3n aument\u00f3 en la estaci\u00f3n no reproductiva y el padr\u00f3n de actividad de los

up defensive posture that protects the most vulnerable parts of the body ( legs , mouthparts , antennae [ 22 , 28 ] ) . nevertheless , the wings are rather unprotected and might be injured by a beewolf female . second , if beewolves females detect signs of the presence of cuckoo wasps they might remove bees from the nest that have possibly been parasitized [ 25 ] . thus , a cuckoo wasp should avoid detection to minimize wastage of time and investment . this means that cuckoo wasp females should avoid detection when they are encountered by a host female in the nest . however , it would probably be even more important for the cuckoo wasps not to leave any detectable traces of their presence when they had entered the nest and oviposited on a paralyzed honeybee .", "cuckoo wasps get their name thanks to their parenting strategy . similar to the cuckoo bird , cuckoo wasps lay their eggs in the nests of other bees . when a cuckoo wasp larva hatches , it eats the other bee larvae and then consumes the stores of food left in the nest . because of this behavior , the cuckoo wasp is a parasite to a variety of other bee and wasp species . even the eggs of walkingsticks are not off limits . the adult cuckoo wasp may be an emerald , gold , or garnet color , and has black eyes , wings , and legs . it is tiny compared to other bees , but its dimpled , shimmering body is bright enough to attract attention . adults drink flower nectar and have very small stingers . they tend to curl up when threatened if they are unable to escape . they are active during the summer and can be found in a wide variety of habitats and natural areas , but are often seen visiting flowers .", "these social wasp species earn themselves the alternate name of a \u2018cuckoo wasp\u2019 , due to their reproductive habits : the females sneak inside the nests of other hymenopteran insects such as mason bees , where an egg is laid from which larvae emerge and proceed to devour the contents of the nest .", "cuckoo wasp , common name for a group of mostly small , stinging wasps . cuckoo wasps are brilliant metallic blue , green , or reddish in color . they are parasites that lay their eggs in the nests of bees , wasps , and certain other insects , which are called their hosts . there are approximately 3000 species of cuckoo wasps throughout the world , including about 230 species in the united states and canada . cuckoo wasps are also called gold wasps , ruby wasps , and jewel wasps .", "we conclude that h . rutilans females closely mimic the composition of cuticular compounds of their host species p . triangulum . the occurrence of isomeric forms of certain compounds on the cuticles of the cuckoo wasps but their absence on beewolf females suggests that cuckoo wasps synthesize the cuticular compounds rather than sequester them from their host . thus , the behavioral data and the chemical analysis provide evidence that a specialized cuckoo wasp exhibits chemical mimicry of the odor of its host . this probably allows the cuckoo wasp to enter the nest with a reduced risk of being detected by olfaction and without leaving traitorous chemical traces .", "three cuckoo wasps from siberian and baltic amber ( hymenoptera : chrysididae : amiseginae and elampina . . .", "we observed interactions between cuckoo wasps ( h . rutilans ) and beewolf females in the field in a beewolf nest aggregation on the campus of the university of w\u00fcrzburg . over several years there were about 100 \u2013 500 beewolf nests ( easily detectable due to the characteristic nest mounds ) and 50 \u2013 500 h . rutilans females ( determined by capture -

damaging beetle grubs , some tiphiid wasps species are considered beneficial . you can see a picture of a tiphiid larva feeding on a beetle grub in the life cycle section above .", "sphecid wasps family : sphecidae there are many species of sphecid wasps in kentucky . most are shiny black or metallic blue , some with bright red , yellow , or orange markings . the most common sphecid wasps are in the subfamily sphecinae and are called \" thread - waisted wasps . \" these sphecids have a long , narrow , antlike appearance . most thread - waisted wasps build their nests underground . some sphecids , often called \" mud - daubers , \" make mud nests for their larvae which they attach to the sides of rocks and buildings . the cicada killer wasp ( sphecius specious ) is also a type of sphecid wasp . at 1 1 / 2 , \" cicada killers are the largest wasps found in kentucky . they are commonly seen in late summer as they hunt for cicadas which they use to provision their eggs in underground burrows . like many sphecid wasps , cicada killers are able to sting people , but they will not do so unless provoked .", "hymenoptera , even those equipped with a sting , are sought as food by other animals . skunks , badgers , field mice , shrews , and other animals attack bee nests for the insects as well as for the honey . the larvae of the wax month ( galleria mellonella ) live in bee nests , where they eat beeswax , thus damaging the nest . the cuckoo bee ( anthophorinae ) , a close relative of the bumblebee , lays its eggs in bumblebee nests , where the larvae are cared for and nourished by bumblebee workers .", "these large wasps are called spider wasps because their young feed on paralyzed spiders . they generally are black or brown but some are brightly colored or metallic . spider wasps are common and are often observed searching for spiders on lawns . others can be seen moving quickly along the trunks of fallen trees , flitting their wings . like other stinging wasps ( including hive wasps , bees , and cuckoo wasps ) , female spider wasps have their egg laying device modified into an effective ( and sometimes painful ) stinger . common kentucky spider wasps are about 1 \" long .", "female cuckoo wasps are widely believed to be unable to sting , the sting apparatus being reduced and supposedly non - functional , yet cases are known where people have received painful stings from larger species . a long , thin appendage may sometimes be seen extending from the tip of the female abdomen . this is not a \u2018stinger\u2019 but an ovipositor used for inserting eggs into a nest of a host . observations of oviposition are few but one author noted that a female of stilbum cyanurum wet the mud wall of a host nest , softening it , then inserted its ovipositor to deposit an egg .", "according to kimsey & bohart ( 1990 ) , four genera of cuckoo wasps occur in australia . stilbum includes just one species , s . cyanurum , which is the largest and most impressive of all . it is distinguished by having a strong , concave , median projection on the rear of the thorax and four downward pointing teeth on each side of the thorax . it breeds in the nests of mud - dauber wasps ( delta and sceliphron ) which are commonly found on the walls of buildings . it may also parasitize the nests of some megachilid bees . this species is found throughout australia and much of the eastern hemisphere . its size varies markedly .", "velvet ants family : mutillidae velvet ants are large ( 1 \" long ) wasps in the family mutillidae . although they are wasps , they are called ants because the females do not have wings . male velvet wasps usually have shiny black wings . velvet ants are covered in dense hair , and most species are bright red or orange with black markings , although some species are metallic green . common velvet ant females place their eggs in the larval and pupal chambers of bee and wasp nests . large velvet ants have very long stingers and are sometimes called \" cow killers , \" but they will only sting if grabbed or if stepped on with bare feet .", "there are two evolutionary options for h . rutilans femalesto avoid olfactory detection by beewolves . first , cuckoo wasps could mimic the odor of the honeybees that are temporarily couched in the main burrow . second , h . rutilans females might mimic their beewolf host . we consider the imitation of the cuticular compounds of the beewolf host the better alternative , since the host ' s hydrocarbon profile can be found all over the nest walls due to the digging activity ( kroiss and strohm unpubl . data ) and also on the honeybees . this is because in order to prevent the paralyzed bees from molding they are treated by the beewolf females with a secretion from the postpharyngeal gland that is identical to the beewolves ' cuticular hydrocarbons [ 29 - 31 ] .", "h . rutilans might employ a combination of strategies to evade detection . if encountered in the nest , they run away or remain motionless . they possibly leave only very small amounts of decisive and traitorous substances in the nest . most notably , the composition of their cuticular hydrocarbons is very similar to that of their host . thus , h . rutilans females seem to be able to avoid detection when directly encountered by a beewolf female in the nest . much more important , however , is the reduction of the conspicuousness of scent marks left in the nest burrow or on the bee during oviposition . this is to our knowledge the first reported evidence for chemical mimicry ( sensu [ 19 ] ) in a parasitoid of a solitary wasp .", "flowering plants bring more than beauty to a garden . many beneficial insects , the kind that help reduce pests on our plants , depend on nectar and pollen to provide nutrients necessary for life . we met some of these characters in previous episodes of bug of the week such as the parasitic ichneumon wasp ( need link to april 7 , 2008 ) , the lovely green lacewing ( link to april 10 , 2006 ) , and the flower flies ( link to may 8 , 2006 ) . a constant array of flowering plants in a landscape may help make it more sustainable . a favorite flowering perennial in my landscape is yarrow . this showy member of the aster family has many medicinal uses in addition to being an excellent attractor of pollinators and pest - eating beneficial insects .", "during warm months , solitary wasps are commonly found in lawns , gardens , field crops , woodlands , and weedy fence rows . most species fly slowly as they search for prey or visit flowers for nectar . although solitary wasps are less likely to sting than hive - dwelling wasps , some ( like sphecid wasps ) will sting when captured , so it is best to capture them with an insect net and immediately place them in a sturdy container . although solitary wasps usually fly slowly , they are almost always on the move , so it can be difficult to get a good picture . the best technique is to keep your camera focused on a flower that is being visited by lots of insects - within a few minutes , a wasp will probably visit , and you can snap a picture .", "in order to assess whether beewolf females respond to the presence of h . rutilans females at all we observed the behavioral interactions outside of the nest . to test whether h . rutilans females employ chemical camouflage inside the nest we conducted to sets of behavioral experiments . first , in observation cages we recorded the interaction of the cuckoo wasps with beewolf females inside the nest burrow . second , we conducted a recognition bioassay by assessing the response of beewolf females towards filter discs treated with different extracts : solvent only , cuticular extracts of another chrysidid , chrysis viridula , and cuticular extracts of h . rutilans . we predicted that beewolf females should ignore the discs treated with solvent only ( negative control ) , they should respond to the discs treated with c . viridula extract ( positive control ) and they should not ( or only weakly ) respond to h . rutilans extracts .", "a priori , chemical camouflage and mimicry seem unlikely to evolve in a chrysidid wasp that attacks a solitary host . chemical camouflage , i . e . the acquisition of mimetic compounds from a solitary host by a parasitic species , might be problematic since , in contrast to parasites of social hosts , there is little opportunity to sequester cloaking chemicals . social host species possess large nests and a large number of colony members that might serve as sources for the relevant compounds . brood parasites of solitary brood caring hymenoptera have rarely been studied in detail [ 53 ] . the only example of chemical camouflage in a brood parasite of a solitary species comes from nomada bees . in some species of this genus , females have been reported to acquire mimetic odors by being perfumed by males during mating . females of these species seemed not to elicit aggressive responses when encountered by host females of the genus andrena [ 2 ] . chemical cloaking in chrysidid wasps has not yet been reported .", "beewolf females often attacked and evicted h . rutilans when they encountered them in front of their nest . this seems to be the rule for interactions between hosts and chrysidids although linsenmaier [ 37 ] reported that there are also cases where chrysidids do not elicit antagonistic behavior by their hosts . prolonged stays at hosts ' nests as observed in h . rutilans , have also been reported for other chrysidids [ 22 , 37 , 38 ] . staying in vicinity of the host nest might allow the chrysidids to adjust the timing of oviposition to the most suitable stage of the provisioning cycle or to enter the nest in the absence of the host female . that h . rutilans females placed themselves under some cover ( e . g . leaves ) during prolonged stays might , besides the reduction of water loss , represent an attempt to hide themselves from the host females . other chrysidid species also seem to hide near the entrance of a host nest and inspect the nest or brood cell after the host female has deposited provisions and departed for a new foraging flight [ 37 ] . this suggests that , similar to beewolves , most host species might recognize cuckoo wasps visually outside the nest . since most chrysidids are brightly colored ( see e . g . drawings in [ 37 ] ) this is not surprising .", "html public \" -

8 cm ( about 3 inches ) is usual .", "south american pufferfish are found in a variety of habitats , from quite soft and acidic rivers like the rio negro through to the estuary of the amazon river . in other words , water chemistry itself is not particularly important . anything between ph 6 - 8 , 5 - 20 degrees dh will suit them well . while not common in brackish water habitats , they will do well in low salinity systems up to around sg 1 . 005 .", "on the other hand , as with all pufferfish , water quality should be good . by pufferfish standards , south american puffers can be considered hardy , and they are certainly less sensitive to nitrate than things like tetraodon mbu . but that doesn ' t mean that they will put up with bad water quality for long . generous filtration and regular water changes are essential . taking into consideration their need for strong water current , canister filters ( either internal or external ) offering water turnover of 6 - 10 times the volume of the tank per hour are in order . change 25 - 50 % of the water per week , aiming for less than 20 mg / l nitrate if possible , and certainly no more than 50 mg / l .", "unlike almost all other freshwater pufferfish , south american pufferfish are not territorial and exhibit no aggressive behaviour towards their own kind or other species . in fact they are nervous when kept singly , and become much less \" neurotic \" when kept in groups . during the daytime fish will follow one another around briefly , often squabbling over food ; but at night ( or if alarmed ) they will settle on the substrate as a group .", "in the wild breeding seems to be similar to that of pelagic pufferfish , with the parents exhibiting no broodcare at all . the eggs are relatively small and the fry are planktonic . breeding behaviour has not been ( knowingly ) observed in aquaria , and in all probability rearing the fry will be very difficult .", "in broad terms these fish are hardy , and when sick respond well to medications ( such as esha 2000 for finrot and fungus ) and heal quickly .", "however , two aspects of healthcare need mentioning . for whatever reason , south american puffers are very prone to whitespot ( ick ) and are often among the first fish to show the symptoms such as \" flashing \" against rocks and the white cysts on the skin . treatment needs to be prompt if serious problems are to be avoided . i have used esha exit to treat whitespot on south american puffers without any problems , but because puffers tend to be sensitive to certain chemicals , it ' s a good idea to observe your fish closely during any treatment . alternatively , adding tonic salt to the aquarium at a dose of 3 grammes per litre and raising the temperature to around 28 degrees c should kill the parasites without doing the pufferfish any long - term harm .", "the other major healthcare issue with south american puffers is the rate at which their teeth grow . even by pufferfish standards , this species has peculiarly fast - growing teeth . while some hobbyists ( myself included ) have managed to slow down tooth growth by manipulating the diet so that it contains crunchy foods like snails , in reality most aquarists will find themselves needing to \" trim \" the teeth one or more times per year .", "while this might sound a bit nerve - wracking , it ' s actually pretty easy and a lot less stressful for the fish than having an overgrown beak that prevents it feeding properly .", "whether or not the south american pufferfish is a good community fish can be argued both ways . on the one hand , it is not aggressive and it doesn ' t view live fish as food , except perhaps livebearer fry but on the other hand the south american puffer is a confirmed fin - nipper . when hungry it will view the fins of slow - moving and long - finned fish as food . while not unusual in this regard ( many tetras and barbs behave the same way ) this does mean that it can ' t be kept with many of the most popular community fish . angelfish , gouramis , congo tetras , livebearers , corydoras and so on are all likely to be nipped .", "in my experience , the safest tankmates are those that hide all day ( like synodontis catfish ) and those that are very fast swimmers ( such as glassfish and bleeding heart tetras ) . but if this approach is to work the tank will need to be reasonably large so that these fish can keep out the way of the puffers .", "the ideal situation though is surely to keep a group of south american puffers by themselves . being nicely coloured , constantly active , and not too big , a pack of half a dozen specimens would look great in a 125 - 180 litre / 33 - 44 gallon tank .", "often pushed as the \" community tank puffer \" this is only fair up to a point , and these are still nippy fish at time . but they are quite easy to keep , hardy , and generally very well behaved aquarium fish . for the aquarist looking for a pufferfish species that is exciting to watch as well as attractive and interesting , it ' s hard to think of a better species than the south american puffer !", "occurs throughout much of the amazon basin in brazil , colombia , peru , and ecuador , including the amazonas / solim\u00f5es main channel plus the rios par\u00e1 , tocantins , jari , xingu , tapaj\u00f3s , uatum\u00e3 , madeira , trombetas , negro , purus , tef\u00e9 , japur\u00e1 / caquet\u00e1 , juru\u00e1 , juta\u00ed , i\u00e7\u00e1 / putomayo , javary , ampiyacu , amacayac\u00fa , napo , nanay , mara\u00f1\u00f3n , and ucayali , with its range extending at least as far upstream as pucallpa in eastern peru .", "there are also numerous records from drainages north of the amazon mouth including the essequibo and waini in guyana , and lower orinoco in venezuela . it appears to be absent from french guiana and suriname .", "has been recorded in lower , middle , and upper river basins with habitats including sandbars , beaches , floodplain lakes , banks with overhanging vegetation , and fast -

50 % should be considered mandatory .", "wild examples can be delicate and sensitive to white spot / ich post - import , so a lengthy quarantine period may be required .", "tetraodontids lack true teeth , the jawbone itself being modified into four fused toothlike structures . these grow continuously at a surprising rate , so offer regular meals of shelled invertebrates such as snails , crab legs , cockles , etc . , in order to maintain them at a reasonable length . there is some evidence to suggest that aufwuchs form a significant proportion of the natural diet , therefore it may be worth permitting or even encouraging algal growth on hard items of d\u00e9cor .", "additional foods can include chopped shellfish , small earthworms , and live or frozen chironomid larvae ( bloodworm ) , artemia , etc . dried products should not form the principal component of the diet , although pelleted formats with a very hard consistency may prove useful .", "not aggressive as such but unsuitable for the general community aquarium , and best -

pattern of small spots that can range from brilliant white to pale yellow . the fins are dark too , with both spots and stripes that may run together forming crosswise bars . their bellies are normally lighter in color with similar spots . as these catfish age they become more of a solid darker color with a white underside . no two look fish look exactly the alike .", ". in fact these two are so similar in looks that to distinguish them , you need to know where they are collected . the spotted raphael is from the amazon basin in bolivia , brazil , colombia and peru , while the spiny catfish has a very restricted occurrence , known only from the r\u00edo orinoco drainage in venezuela .", "10 years - they have an average lifespan of 10 years , however in captivity they have been known to live as much as 15 to 20 years .", "the spotted raphael catfish is fairly hardy , making it a great choice for a beginning fish keeper . they are fairly small and and not very picky about what they eat . these are bottom scavengers that do a great job cleaning the tank .", "their water requirements are very easy to meet and their temperament is of a peaceful nature , making them good community fish . there is not usually much of a need to upgrade to a bigger tank as much as it is with some of the larger catfish , unless you want to increase the number of fish you ' re keeping . they do have sharp spines on the dorsal fins and so should be transported using a glass or plastic container rather than a net .", "the spotted raphael catfish are omnivores and not fussy terms of feeding . in the wild they will feed on a variety of crustaceans , worms , insects , and plant matter . they are bottom feeders , and in the aquarium they will eat any food that reaches them . feed them daily , being nocturnal they prefer to be fed right before or after the lights are turned off on the aquarium .", "to keep a good balance give them high quality sinking pellets everyday , along with freeze - dried bloodworms and tubifex . they will also eat all kinds of live , frozen , and prepared foods , including flakes , that have sunk to the bottom . protein foods are important for them , so the occasional whole or chopped earthworm is good as a regular treat . they will eat snails , so can be employed to clean up a snail overpopulation , as long as the aquarium ' s conditions are suitable for this fish .", "omnivore - they do eat some plant matter in the wild , but protein is the main staple of their diet .", "yes - they will eat any foods that reach the bottom of the aquarium .", "daily - this fish is nocturnal and prefers to be fed right before or after lights out in the aquarium .", "these are hardy fish that tolerate most water conditions . in the wild the shallow flood waters of its homeland can cool off drastically at night , and they then tolerate temperatures as low as to 15\u00b0 c for a short period . but extremes should be avoided in the aquarium to avoid stress and illness .", "they are very low maintenance and their tank only requires water changes of 30 % a month . there really isn ' t much that needs to be done for the easy going catfish . this is one of the catfish that have sharp spines not only on the dorsal fins but on the pectoral fin as well . it is better to capture them in a glass or plastic container for transport .", "monthly - these low maintenance fish only require water changes of 30 % a month .", "the spotted raphael catfish are moderately sized fish . they need a minimum sized tank of 35 gallons , with 45 gallons or more being better . they tend to be nocturnal , getting most active in the evening and nighttime when they come out to scavenge for food . they may seem shy during the day , spending much of their time hiding , but once they are comfortable they will come out for a swim around . as with most catfish they enjoy well oxygenated waters and this can be accomplished using an undergravel filter and a powerhead . they prefer slightly acid water with low hardness .", "provide a dimly lit setup with hiding places . plants , twisted roots , and driftwood are the best decor . they will not harm plants and will appreciate some in floating cover as well , to help reduce the light . when young they tend to hide in dense vegetation , but they also like to wedge themselves into tight crevices and to burrow . provide a sandy or fine gravel bottom with at least one corner without plants .", "35 gal ( 132 l ) - a 35 gallon tank is minimum , but 45 gallons or more is better , especially for a larger community .", "the spotted raphael catfish are peaceful bottom scavengers . they are a good community fish and are friendly with other medium to large community tank mates , avoid fish that are so small they could be considered food . they can be kept singly , but they have a gregarious nature and enjoy being in groups of 4 or more . they will also school with similar looking catfish relatives . with its armored thorny protection it usually be kept with more aggressive tankmates . south and central american cichlids , larger characins , pimelodus , and trichogaster are all good choices .",

own kind , keeping 4 or more is recommended .", "monitor - can usually be kept with semi - aggressive and even aggressive fish such as cichlids .", "threat - is aggressive - the raphael catfish are sometimes used to rid an aquarium of snails .", "the spotted raphael catfish has rarely been bred in captivity other than artificially with the use of hormones . some spawning success has said to have happened , but reported as being accidental and there is little information is available .", "it is believed that they may be a bubble nest builders in nature , with eggs laid among floating plants . it has been reported that other species of small doradidae could be called nest builders . in the tank they may gather up general debris or find an area with old leaf litter and tidbits of wood , and try to hide beneath it . then other fish of the same species will tend to swim around this \" nest . \" but whether they had a successful spawn has not been reported . for information on the breeding of catfish in the aquarium , see : breeding freshwater fish : catfish .", "the spotted raphael catfish are fairly hardy when mature , but are subject to the same diseases as other tropical fish . disease is not usually a problem in a well maintained aquarium and these catfish are very resilient . the most common problem that happens to this fish are injuries from netting and transportation . take great caution when catching and removing this fish . high nitrate levels can also cause these catfish to develop infected barbels ; this makes it difficult for them to navigate and eat normally . maintain nitrate levels below 20 ppm through regular water changes .", "because they are a scaleless fish , catfish can be treated with pimafix or melafix but should not be treated with potassium permanganate or copper based medications . malachite green or formalin can be used at one half to one fourth the recommended dosage . take care when treating disease as the", "the best way to proactively prevent disease is to give your fish the proper environment and give them a well balanced diet . the closer to their natural habitat the less stress the fish will have , making them healthier and happy . a stressed fish will is more likely to acquire disease . anything you add to your tank can bring disease to your tank . not only other fish but plants , substrate , and decorations can harbor bacteria . properly clean or quarantine anything that you add to an established tank so not to add new diseases to the tank . for information about fish diseases and illnesses ,

ceramic hide . it would grow too fat to get out , we ' d break it out eventually and it would go into another one . it ' s never swam around . the other dy we broke him out again and made sure there wasn ' t anything else for him to get stuck in . i ' m interested to see if he starts to swim around finally . he is currently snug between some rocks . he can definitely get out though if he wants .", "they don ' t move around much during the day . i ' ve had a striped raphael for quite a long time and got the spotted one a year ago . they hide all day until night . i thought for sure my spotted one was stuck in a piece of driftwood . i tried like hell to get him out but couldn ' t . two nights later after i feed the tank and turned lights off here he comes wiggling out of the wood . i used to have ceramic hides but a friend of mines striped cut his soft belly on a one and got an infection and died so now i only use driftwood and rocks ( smooth ) .", "i have a raphael and he is indeed my favorite fish . believe it or not , i have had him for more than 30 years ! ! i bought him as a tiny baby about 1980 . he has outlived all other tankmates and even a disasterous event that killed every other fish in the tank for an unknown reason . he is quite large and loves to hide in a cave all the time . does anyone know how long these fish live ?", "at least two years prior to giving him to me . i gave my community tank to my brother when i went away to college . all his fish died except for the raphael . he then gave him to a neighbor who had a large cichlid tank . the neighbors fish all died except for the raphael . by this time i had moved back to the area and took the fish back . he ' s been doing great ever since . there have been a few times when i was moving him that i thought he was dead , since he did not swim or move at all , and he just layed upside down at the bottom of the bucket . seems like he was in some kind of suspended animation . this is my favorite fish , even though he doesn ' t move much during the day . he ' s had hundreds of tank mates over the last two decades and he ' s outlasted them all .", "update , 9 years later and my spotted raphael is still going strong . he is at least 27 years old now . he still perks up whenever i drop food in the tank and he seems as healthy as ever . it ' s amazing that an aquarium fish can live

one families and subfamilies of birds , the solomons have forty - four . the solomons are considered a center of bird endemism , with at least seven endemic genera . the dropoff in diversity seen in other animal groups as one moves east from new guinea is also consistent with that seen in birds . whereas new guinea has seventy - one families and subfamilies of birds , and the solomons have forty - four , vanuatu has thirty - one ( keast 1996 ) .", "between november and april of each year the solomon islands are subject to tropical cyclones , which are an important source of natural disturbance to the islands ' forests . extreme droughts are also a natural event and occur irregularly at intervals of six to twenty years ( mueller -

five and 100 segments with either a single or double row of feet on each segment , giving the illusion of a thousand feet ( although millipedes only have up to 750 legs ) . the seventh segment appendages are often specialized into copulatory organs called gonopods . many species of millipedes can be identified only by using morphological characteristics when viewing the male copulatory structures . millipedes breathe through structures called spiracles . each abdominal segment contains two spiracles , which open into air chambers connected to tracheal tubes . after millipedes mate , females lay eggs and guard them . hatchlings hatch from eggs and have only a few pairs of legs . each time they molt ( shed their exoskeleton ) , they gain more segments and legs .", "a very common species of millipede in arkansas is pseudopolydesmus pinetorum ( bollman ) . this species has a flattened body and is a brownish color . other common millipedes include the families parajulidae and eurymerodesmidae . a few genera of millipedes within arkansas are rather colorful , with yellow and orange markings on the body segments , such as in apheloria , auturus , and eurymerodesmus . one species occurring within arkansas , narceus americanus , is a very large millipede with a brownish body with orange and green markings along the periphery of the segments . brachycebe lecontei is a millipede that has a pink body .", "published collections of millipedes date back to the late 1800s . in 1888 , charles h . bollman published the \u201cpreliminary checklist of the myriapoda of arkansas , with descriptions of new species\u201d in entomologica americana . dr . nell bevel causey , who held a faculty position at the university of arkansas ( ua ) in fayetteville ( washington county ) , authored numerous species and genera , many of which are endemic to arkansas . much of the knowledge of millipede species occurring in arkansas can be contributed to this early work . other diplopodologists who have contributed to the knowledge of millipedes are william a . shear and richard l . hoffman . as recent research conducted in arkansas by rowland m . shelley and chris t . mcallister has increased the known species and distributional limits within the state , there is not a current comprehensive species list for arkansas .", "some millipede species in arkansas , such as euryurus leachii ( koch ) , are typically more commonly found on the eastern side of the mississippi river but do occur within the state . yet , others , such as abacion texense ( loomis ) , are more commonly found in the central portion of the united states but do occur east of the mississippi river .", "of potential concern to cave ecosystems is the exotic and invasive greenhouse millipede oxidus gricilus , which can be quite common in some cave systems . this species , however , is not limited to cave environments , and the potential harm this exotic millipede might bring to native fauna is not known at this time . native environments , especially cave systems , can be very fragile and susceptible to threats from exotic species of wildlife .", "millipedes , especially arkansas\u2019s species , are essentially harmless to humans , as they lack structures to bite , pinch , or sting . however , when handled , millipedes often emit defensive secretions . these secretions are generally harmless , but some people can develop skin and eye problems after contact . millipedes that emit defensive secretions often exhibit aposematic coloration ( colors warning about defensive secretions ) .", "in general , millipedes can be found wherever the habitat is moist . they play an integral ecological role , as they are important in nutrient recycling of plant material . they fragment this plant material ( detritus ) , increasing microbial breakdown and soil nutrient cycling . they are more commonly seen in the spring and fall months of the year when the temperatures are not too hot or too cold and there is ample moisture in the ground . during certain times of the year ( such as in the fall months when temperatures and moisture levels align ) , large numbers of millipedes can be seen moving about . although arkansas is home to some rare and even endemic millipedes , many species are easily encountered just by flipping logs , rocks , or other debris .", "for additional information : hopkin , s . p . , and h . j . read . the biology of millipedes . oxford , uk : oxford university press , 1992 .", "mcallister , c . t . , c . s . harris , r . m . shelley , and j . t . mcallister iii . \u201cmillipeds ( arthropoda : diplopoda ) of the ark -

to - side while it flares its opercula . once it is within striking range of its prey , the lionfish will begin to rhythmically twitch its dorsal spines back - and - forth while vibrating the lower tips of its pectoral rays to confuse the food item . finally , the lion strikes and sucks its hapless prey into its mouth a la hoover .", "while most lionfish exhibit slow , even respirations , it is important to realize that the fu manchu\u2019s normal breathing rate always seems to be rather fast , so don\u2019t worry if you notice this . one final note regarding the fu manchu is that it is probably the most intolerant of conspecifics of any of the lionfish species . even in larger setups , these fish will seek each other out and fight . it is conjectured that a m - f pair may not fight , however , unlike d . brachypterus , d . biocellatus is not sexually dimorphic / dichromic , thus it is impossible to discern the sex of this species .", "whenever we\u2019re asked to recommend a single dwarf lionfish species , this is our choice , hands down . fuzzies are pretty , hardy , and personable fish , and have relatively small mouths when compared to many other lionfish species . as their most popular common name implies , the scales of this lionfish have a fuzzy appearance to them . although these fish come in three basic color morphs ( brownish , red , and yellow ) , they can be virtually any combination of these hues . the brownish morph is the most common , and the yellows are a pretty rare find , as this color morph is only found in fish that hail from the lembeh strait and typically command a high price ( $ 300 -

catcher and a fabulous fish if you happen to find one .", "once you learn the differences in their spot pattern , the mombasae ( left ) and the antennata ( right ) are easily distinguishable .", "the p . radiata is harder to find than some of the other lions and often suffer during shipping , but their beauty is undebatable and they are a lucky find .", "given our love for all things scorp , we have a hard time saying that a particular lionfish is the prettiest , but this species would definitely be on the short list . it is one of the species that we most often field questions about , simply based on looks alone . speaking of looks , this fish is easily identified by the two horizontal white stripes on its caudal peduncle . radiata lions exhibit broad vertical body bands that are typically dark red / maroon / brown , sometimes with a darkish green / black tint to them . these dark bands are separated by thin , stark white stripes . the lower rays of their long pectoral fin are connected by a membrane near the body up to about a quarter of their length , and the membranes of their second dorsal , anal and caudal fins lack color or markings , hence one of this fish\u2019s common names : clearfin lionfish . this species typically sports a pair of supraorbital antennae .", "although there are other attributes that id a radiata , the tail pattern is unique to its species .", "radiata lions tend to ship poorly , so finding a pristine , healthy specimen may take some patience . however , a few minor dings should heal up and disappear in pretty short order with good food and low - stress tank conditions . another thing makes this fish a bit more of a find ( and more expensive ) is the fact that in the wild , it is a bit rarer than many lionfish species .", "like the other medium lionfish species , p . radiata feeds on crustaceans ( mostly crabs and sometimes shrimp ) in the wild . therefore , a new fish that is being conditioned ( or stubborn weaners ) should be offered live ghost shrimp , small crawfish , or fiddler crabs as first foods . radiated lionfish approach their prey in an interesting forward - tilted , head - down attitude with their pectoral fins outstretched . this species has been dubbed difficult to keep due them being poor shippers , the fact that they are intolerant of poor water quality , and are sometimes difficult to feed / wean . however , although our specimen did look a bit rough from being in the procurement chain , it is a solid stick - feeder and will eat almost anything it is offered .", "russel\u2019s lionfish can best be described as a volitans in a slightly smaller package , both in habits and care . it is often seen offered for sale under the incorrect common name red volitans . i actually asked the owner of an aquarium shop why he mis - id\u2019d this fish , and he told me \u201cthe people who really know , know , but most people don\u2019t , and it avoids confusion\u201d . i can\u2019t say i agree with the logic , especially since he has a bit of a passion for oddball fish , but i guess it works for some folks .", "the p . russelii is most easily identified by the lack of spots on its caudal and median fins , which also gives rise to one of its common names clearfin lionfish . its white body is adorned with reddish - brown vertical bands , which are sparser and more widely spaced than those of the p . volitans . additionally , russel\u2019s lionfish lack the dark markings under its chin that the volitans has . once you see a russel\u2019s , you won\u2019t mistake them as p . volitans thereafter .", "note the spots on the caudal fin ( tail ) of the p . volitans that is absent on the p . russelii . occasionally a russels will have spots on their tail , so it\u2019s not an identifier .", "note the lack of chin markings of the p . russelii to the left .", "this fish is bold , and is almost always out and about in the water column . it is extremely tolerant of tankmates ( unless it thinks they\u2019re snack - size ) , and handles polluted water very well . if you like p . volitans , but don\u2019t quite have the room for one , p . russelii is for you !", "this species is what one would have to consider thee lionfish . whenever a person mentions that they keep a lionfish , it is most likely a p . volitans . at this writing , we have kept nine species of lionfish , and although each species has its own allure , there is nothing quite like an adult p . volitans in terms of sheer presence and graceful beauty . they make the ultimate centerpiece fish for the larger aquarium . unfortunately , these fish are often offered as 2\u201d juveniles , and many keepers are unaware as to how large and / or how fast these fish can grow , so many specimens end up being cramped and tank - stunted instead of being able to spread their fins and cruise about their tank .", "p . volitans is typically very easy to feed and wean , and weaning is often accomplished by simply adding a chunk of food to the water column , as this species has a voracious appetite . their maximum prey size is often underestimated by aquarists who watch in horror as their adult volitans slurps down a 6\u201d + long tankmate in the blink of an eye .", "this species is probably the most forgiving of all lionfish species in terms of water quality and other forms of negligence visited on them by the aquarist . in fact , in the past , this fish was sometimes used to cycle new setups , as they could handle the various spikes in water chemistry . one of the most often made mistakes with this fish is to under - tank it . even a smaller adult will end up being a 12\u201d cube ( including fins ) , so they require a minimum front - to - back depth of 18\u201d just to be able to turn around comfortably .", "think a lion and a trigger make good tankmates ? click on the picture to see jerry barbian\u2019s video as to why this coupling may become a problem .", "people frequently try to mix volitans with triggers . some people have had success , which can be found more frequently with the pelagic species of triggers . and then there is the more common outcome of a lion and a trigger below . it\u2019s your risk . have a plan \u201cb\u201d if it doesn\u2019t work out .", "in a two year span , this lion went from a walnut to a football .", "average size : 5\u201d - 6\u201d tl ( ~ 13 \u2013 15 cm ) natural habitat : usually found on open reef flats , in sheltered coastal bays and fine sand or muddy habitats . care level : difficult minimum tank size : 30 g ( ~ 114 l ) frozen food conversion : difficult", "the electric blue bands of the pectoral fins , lends to the beauty of the fish .", "as flash colors to warn away and confuse predators . the pelvic fins of the bluefin are typically black , hence the common name \u201cblackfoot lionfish\u201d . finally , the trailing edge of their caudal fin is perfectly straight ( squared - off ) , with the uppermost ray elongated to form a streamer . if it weren\u2019t for the difficulty in keeping this fish , it may very well be the perfect lionfish in terms of appearance and size .", "another interesting habit of the bluefin is the fact that they are often seen out in the open resting or even partially buried in shallow depressions which they excavate in the soft substrate . when startled , this lion will rear up in its depression , directing the business ends of its dorsal spines toward the attacker . if the attacker persists , it will flash its pectorals and rotate itself 360\u00ba in an effort to bewilder the offender as well as to have the ability to defend itself in place . it will leave its foxhole only as a last resort .", "this little lion is definitely a rare find , and a special case , as to have even a small chance of keeping it alive for any appreciable length of time , it must be kept under temperate conditions ( less than 65\u00baf ) . we have been fortunate enough to have had our specimen under our care for well over a year , however , the early months were indeed rough ) .", "we consider the p . heterura to be the most beautiful out of all the lions . we had ours 1 year 7 months before we lost him when he jumped out of the tank . cover your tanks !"]}

elevation trans - pyrenean incursion that has led to asymmetrical introgression among divergent lineages . cytonuclear discordance in patterns of genetic structure and introgression at contact zones suggests selection may be involved at various scales . suture zones are important areas for the study of lineage formation and speciation , and our results show that biogeographic barriers can yield markedly different phylogeographic patterns in different vertebrate and invertebrate taxa .", "additional fine - scale sampling at contact zones among lineages will also be needed to understand introgression dynamics at other areas , such as the beret site , where all individuals carry french mtdna and spanish ndna , or the contact zone in the western pyrenees between the blue and red clades detected at the iba\u00f1eta site , where individuals show blue central - pyrenean ndna , yet half of them carry red mtdna haplotypes . patterns at these individual sites are similar to those found at some sites in southern france , and a more thorough geographic context provided by finer -

gap extension = 0 . 2 ) . all the cytb sequences had the same length and therefore no gaps were postulated . these sequences were translated into amino acids using the vertebrate mitochondrial code and no stop codons were observed , suggesting they were probably all functional . although some gaps were postulated in order to resolve length differences in the 12s rrna and 16s rrna gene fragments , all positions could be unambiguously aligned and were therefore included in the analyses .", "three methods of phylogenetic analysis were employed for all three independent partitions and the combined dataset and their results compared . these were : maximum likelihood ( ml ) , bayesian analysis and maximum parsimony ( mp ) . modeltest v . 3 . 06 ( posada & crandall , 1998 ) was used to select the most appropriate model of sequence evolution for the ml and bayesian analyses of the independent partitions and the combined dataset , under the akaike information criterion . this was , in all four cases , the general time reversible model ( gtr ) taking into account the proportion of invariable sites ( i ) and the shape parameter alpha of the gamma distribution ( g ) . for the mp analyses , apart from an unweighted analysis ( ts = 1 , tv = 1 ) , independent analyses were also carried out for each dataset taking into account the observed transitions ( ts ) / transversions ( tv ) ratios and the presence of saturation in the cytb 3rd codon ts . these were : cytb ( ts = 1 , tv = 4 ) ;

farris et al . , 1994 ) . in this test , 10 000 heuristic searches were performed after removing all invariable characters from the dataset ( cunningham , 1997 ) . to test for incongruence among datasets we also used a reciprocal 70 % bootstrap proportion ( mason - gamer & kellogg , 1996 ) or a 95 % posterior - probability threshold . topological conflicts were considered significant if two different relationships for the same set of taxa were both supported with bootstrap values \u2265 70 % or posterior - probability values \u2265 95 % .", "topological constrains to test alternative topologies were constructed using macclade v . 4 . 0 ( maddison & maddison , 1992 ) and compared with optimal topologies using the shimodaira - hassegawa ( sh ) ( shimodaira & hasegawa , 1999 ) test implemented in paup * 4 . 0b10 ( swofford , 1998 ) .", "ml estimates of divergence times for the combined dataset were obtained after discovery of lineage rate constancy across the tree using the likelihood ratio test ( huelsenbeck & crandall , 1997 ) . the error associated with finite sampling of nucleotides for reconstructing branch lengths was calculated by a three - step non - parametric bootstrap procedure ( efron & tibshirani , 1993 ) : ( 1 ) 100 data matrices were generated using the seqboot program in phylip 3 . 57 , ( 2 ) the matrices were imported into paup * 4 . 0b10 and 100 trees with branch lengths were obtained using the gtr + i + g model of sequence evolution ( see above ) and the tree of figure 2 as a constraint , and ( 3 ) trees with branch lengths were transformed into trees with node times using treeedit v . 1 . 0 . the different values across the 100 trees were used to calculate the average and the standard deviation for the relevant nodes .", "x - rays images used in the osteological comparisons were taken in a dedicated facility of the natural history museum , london following specific protocols optimized for urodeles . in total , 69 specimens belonging to the salamandridae and covering the whole geographical distribution of the western brook newts were x - rayed ( see appendix 2 ) .", "to calibrate the phylogenetic trees , we used the methods described above ( see material and methods ) and an internal calibration point based on the assumption that divergence between pleurodeles waltl michahelles , 1830 and the ancestor of both north african p . poireti ( gervais , 1835 ) and p . nebulosus ( guichenot , 1850 ) was initiated by a vicariance event at the end of the messinian salinity crisis , approximately 5 . 3 mya , when the opening of the strait of gibraltar separated european and african populations of pleurodeles ( carranza & arnold , 2004 ; carranza & wade , 2004 ) .", "the results of the combined analyses for the combined dataset are presented in figure 2 and all the different methods employed clearly indicate that euproctus is polyphyletic . to test this result , the log likelihood of the ml tree presented in figure 2 ( \u22126882 . 664 ) was compared with the log likelihood of an ml tree constrained so that euproctus was monophyletic ( \u22126954 . 332 ) . the results of the sh test showed that the constrained tree is significantly different , having a significantly worse log likelihood value than the unconstrained solution ( diff - ln l = 71 . 66744 ; p < 0 . 001 ) , and hence the tree in figure 2 , where euproctus is polyphyletic , is consequently preferred .", "by contrast , the tyrrhenian brook newts form a highly supported monophyletic group ( 100 % in all analyses ) with unresolved affinities to mesotriton and lissotriton . our data support e . montanus and e . platycephalus having diverged from each other approximately 5 . 5 mya , a date that coincides with the end of the messinian salinity crisis and the refilling of the mediterranean sea ( see carranza & arnold , 2004 ) ."]}

2 on the proliferation of these cells , thus suggesting a common mechanism for these proteins . gene expression analysis of human fibroblasts growing on alt - c - or collagen - coated plates showed that alt - c and collagen i induce a very similar pattern of gene expression . when compared with cells growing on plastic only , alt - c up - regulates the expression of 45 genes including the vegf gene and down - regulates the expression of 30 genes . fibroblast vegf expression was confirmed by rt - pcr and elisa assay . up - regulation of the vegf gene and other growth factors could explain the positive effect on huvec proliferation . alt - c also strongly activates akt / pkb phosphorylation , a signaling event involved in endothelial survival and angiogenesis . in conclusion , alt - c acts as a survival factor , promoting adhesion and endothelial cell proliferation .", "html public \" -

at the time , a senator and former military tribune residing in vetulia . as civil strife began to mount in resistance to austark ' s religious pogroms , the primarch began to use close family members of provincial governors trapped in the capital as leverage to ensure their loyalty . when severus ' wife liara and her entourage were refused free movement out of the city after visiting her daughter in the spring of 63 a . d . , severus unsuccessfully pleaded with the primarch to let her return to athenia .", "depicts severus ( shown left in gold ) decimating the pagan forces of primarch austark ii .", "an 11th century depiction of the \" donation of severus , \" which adorns the walls of the sinistrian chapel within the apostolic palace .", "upon his deathbed in 76 a . d . , primarch severus , ordered in a letter bearing the seal of the imperial household that custodianship for the dominion be turned over to the church -

determination and a protector of catholic communities around the region . less enamored observers have frequently characterized his military exploits in belmia as that of a \" hapless warmonger , \" driven by a misguided \" crusading mentality , and a dangerous sense of \" catholic supremacism \" .", "consisting of 12 cardinals is charged with the review of all legislative proposals passed by the npc . the esc may only veto legislation by unanimous agreement , though it is empowered to attach \" mandatory amendments \" to proposed legislation . such amendments , carrying the support of two thirds of the cardinals on the committee , function as editorial prerequisites for a bill ' s enactment . the amended bill , if not challenged by the national people ' s congress over a period of ten days , becomes law . if the npc challenges the amended bill , it may move to the floor for debate again , followed by a \" nullification \" vote . a four - fifths vote may override an esc amended bill , rendering it \"", "\" ( a dead law ) . at any time , the npc and esc may appeal to the supreme pontiff to strike down or approve the law . the esc is also responsible for vetting and approving candidates for political office appointments , and national elections . citizens wishing to run as a candidate for one of the nationally recognized parties must be reviewed by the committee , and successfully petition the support of three cardinals ( and not opposed by more than four ) . committee members ( who serve septennial terms ) are exclusively appointed by the church , with six directly appointed by the supreme pontiff , and six elected from within the college of cardinals .", "within the church itself , a vast bureaucracy works in coordination with civilian government branches to facilitate effective governance . the curia of vaticaina is comprised of ten congregations , thirteen councils , four secretariats , three tribunals , and one prefecture . among the most active of the major curial institutions are the congregation for the evangelization of the peoples , which oversees the catholic church ' s various missionary activities across undria ( and within the astavian nation itself ) , and the congregation of divine mercy , which functions as the nation ' s primary social aid provider . most astavian social welfare , job training , food stamp , and public assistance programs fall under the administration of the congregation of divine mercy ( typically working with funds provided by the apostolic camera ) , although standards of national healthcare fall under the jurisdiction of the national health council .", "\" rests with the supreme pontiff , who selects a candidate from a list of four . two names are submitted by the chairman of the esc , and two more by the consul ( both the chairman and consul may concur on candidates , and stipulate such in the submitted list ) . in turn , the excelsus advocatus directly appoints the 7 justices of the supreme judicial council and the chief public prosecutor . courts in astavia are largely divided along secular and religious lines . for the most part , the secular courts of the nation bear the brunt of the civil cases and criminal prosecutions that make their way through astavia ' s judicial system on a yearly basis . at the local level , 112", "administer justice for both criminal and civil cases . decisions made at the district level may be appealed to one of 17", ", which have appellate jurisdiction over specific regions across the country . at the highest civil level , the 7 - judge panel of the", ", exercises total authority to reconcile discrepancies ( constitutional or otherwise ) between decisions made by circuit courts .", "three established tribunals exercise various forms of judicial power within astavia ' s catholic church . normal judicial appeals on sacramental matters ( such as marriage annulment ) , may work their way up through local church courts to the vetulian rota . some civil cases , if agreed upon by both parties , may also be taken to the vetulian rota provided both parties are practicing catholics in good standing with the church . the high signatura is the supreme appellate and administrative court of the astavian see , wielding jurisdiction over decisions made by the vetulian rota , as well as the administrative decisions of church prelates . additionally , it oversees and regulates the legal framework that innervates the curia ' s administration . the apostolic suprema council ( colloquially referred to as the cloistered council ) deals primarily with matters of conscience and morality . officially , the suprema is the judicial wing of the office of the holy inquisition , which generally falls under the broad categorization of a curial institution , though its administration and operation is largely kept separate from the curia itself .", "astavian catholics may also elect ( so long as both the plaintiff and defendant assent ) to have civil cases brought before an ecclesiastical court , officially convened by a bishop , but typically administered by a designated local prelate . decisions by ecclesiastical courts may be appealed to one of 13 canon courts ( one for each province , and one for overseas territories ) , which are each overseen by three appointed canon judges . these courts fall under the supreme jurisdiction of the high signatura , the decisions of which ( since they are carried out on direct papal approval ) , cannot be appealed . while ecclesiastical courts are not empowered to hear criminal cases under normal circumstances , the apostolic suprema council of the ohi wields loose powers to conduct trials and carry out sentencing for certain categories of offenses , including crimes endangering national security , treason , and heresy . like the high signature , the suprema ' s decisions are final and cannot be appealed - rendering it ultimately answerable only to the supreme pontiff . the curate ' s court of review , a sub - court of the ohi , handles crimes allegedly committed by clerics and citizens closely associated with the church . the ohi ' s jurisdictional claim to legitimately investigate , detain , prosecute , and punish clerics and other church officials has been the subject of considerable criticism between catholic nations in undria , particularly in cases where the alleged offending party has been a foreign national who sought refuge in his or her home country .", "paf su -

( 2005 ) investigated the effect of nine alternative ad hoc partitioning strategies on model fit , topology and node support in bayesian framework and found variation in inferred tree topologies at weakly supported nodes . other studies have noted that partitioning scheme choice affects node support ( ward et al . 2010 ; rota and wahlberg 2012 ; powell et al . 2013 ) , tree topology ( strugnell et al . 2005 ; leavitt et al . 2013 ; tao et al . 2013 ) , and branch - lengths ( poux et al . 2008 ; ho and lanfear 2010 ) . occasionally the choice of partitioning scheme has little or no effect on tree characteristics at all ( cameron et al . 2012 ) . . . .", ". . . although these studies demonstrate that partitioning can have important effects on phylogenetic inference , it is difficult to draw any general conclusions from them . the partitioning schemes compared within each study were selected on an ad hoc basis with very different approaches ; some studies compared a small set of very similar partitioning schemes ( e . g . , cameron et al . 2012 ) , and others compared extensive sets of very different partitioning schemes ( e . g . , rota and wahlberg 2012 ; leavitt et al . 2013 ) . furthermore , previous studies used a variety of different phylogenetic methods , software implementations , and tree inference methods . . . .", ". . . using the program tiger ( cummins & mcinerney , 2011 ) , all of the sites in the alignment were sorted into 80 bins based on their relative evolutionary rate , with invariable sites being sorted into bin 1 , and the fastest - evolving sites into bin 80 . the bins were then combined into partitions as described by rota & wahlberg ( 2012 ) , resulting in eight partitions ( partition 1 contained the slowest - evolving sites and partition 8 the fastest - evolving sites ) . in some of the analyses , as described later , the fastest partitions were excluded . . . .", ". . . the tree shown infig . 5 is the result of the analysis of the dataset ( full _ ex78 ) from which the fastest - evolving sites were excluded using the program tiger ( cummins & mcinerney , 2011 ) , partitioned using a previously described procedure ( rota & wahlberg , 2012 ) , and analyzed with mrbayes v . 3 . 2 ( ronquist et al . , 2012 ) . the topology is identical to that recently presented in regier et al .

[ source 1 , source 2 ]", "carpets require the basic chameleon care , such as uv lighting , the correct delivery of water and heating , etc . i always recommend natural sunlight for health and best colours , if your location is suitable .", ". this allows them to control the wavelength of the light reflected by the iridiophores and so , the colour . combined with the chromatophores , the different chameleon species can cover most of the visible spectrum of colours .", "coming from various parts of madagascar , they are not restricted to one habitat or ecosystem . this means they are fairly tolerant of temperature ranges but the following are optimum : daytime between 25\u00b0c and 30\u00b0c , dropping at night by 5\u00b0c to 10\u00b0c . do not let the temperature fall below 12\u00b0c or rise above 32\u00b0c . the carpet chameleons may survive but they could become stressed .", "also provide nontoxic plants ( such as a ficus benjamina ) , sticks of various sizes and vines , so they may feel secure . chameleons become stressed when they see other chameleons , even if they see one across the room . if you notice a chameleon stressing \u2014 changing to gravid or unreceptive colors , hissing or puffing up for no apparent reason \u2014 it may see its reflection or have view of a chameleon in another cage .", "when you purchase any chameleon , please do the animal and yourself a favor : get a fecal check . it\u2019s the only way to be completely sure the animal doesn\u2019t have parasites . veterinarians can do this simple test . all you have to take to the vet office is a fresh stool sample . even a healthy - looking , active chameleon with a tight grip and strong tongue can harbor a fatal parasite load . parasites are commonly aggravated by stress , which can grow to unmanageable levels in a relatively short amount of time in captivity . even a very heavy load of parasites , if caught early in an otherwise healthy chameleon , can be treated and cured .", "hatchling carpet chameleons can be kept in much the same way as the adults , but even more care should be taken to make sure the temperature and humidity are precise . hatchlings are very strong and usually eat voraciously in a day or two . furcifer lateralis subspecies grow so quickly that it is imperative that supplements contain a high - quality form of calcium to ensure proper growth of bones and muscles .", "scheme of a chameleon\u2019s skin section in which the iridiophores ( blue ) with nanocrystal layers and the different kinds of chromatophores can be seen ; xanthophores ( yellow ) , erythrophores ( red ) and melanophores ( black ) . image by", "chameleons ( chamaeleonidae family ) are extremely cryptic lizards , as their coloration is usually very similar to that of their habitat\u2019s . also , many chameleon species present the ability to actively shift their colours , making their camouflage even more complex .", "as long as no aggressive behavior is present , a clutch of 10 to 15 hatchling carpet chameleons can be housed together in a screen cage measuring 1 foot long , 1 foot wide and 2 feet tall for no more than a month . after that time , keep no more than five hatchlings per cage . furcifer lateralis subspecies grow quickly , and adults require their own cage after they reach 3 months old .", "changing skin color is an important part of communication among chameleons . according to the san diego zoo , a chameleon ' s skin changes colors in response to its emotions , such as anger or fear , changes in light , temperature or humidity .", "] . to help alleviate this , we estimated chameleon divergence both ways and then assessed concordance . while the dates inferred using the nd2 molecular rate were generally older , the dates did not largely vary between analyses with respect to geologic period ( see", "as we\u2019ve just seen , the variety of colorations among the distinct chameleon species is huge . yet , their incredible abilities haven\u2019t saved chameleons from being on the endangered species list , as many of them are in danger of extinction , mainly because of the destruction of their habitat due to the logging industry and because of poaching for the illegal exotic animal trade . we hope that with a better awareness of these spectacular and colourful lizards , future generations can still delight with chameleon colour shifts for a long time .", "many chameleon species , including panther ( furcifer pardalis ) , jackson\u2019s ( chamaeleo jacksonii ) and senegal ( chamaeleo senegalensis ) chameleons will display dark brown colors if they are cold , sick or stressed . other chameleons , including many of the stump - tailed chameleons ( brookesia sp . ) , always display brown or other earth tones that help them to blend in to their natural habitat . outstalet\u2019s chameleons ( furcifer outstaleti ) , potentially the largest chameleon species in the world , usually exhibit grey or brown colors .", "supply water to your chameleon twice daily in the form of a mist , spray or dripper . i use tap water in a hudson sprayer to mist my enclosures . a humidifier also helps to keep humidity in check . do yourself a favor and get the more expensive one with the auto shut - off . i use only distilled water in the humidifier . this keeps minerals from building up and causing the misting nebulizer to malfunction . make sure to wet the chameleon\u2019s body as well as the plants in the enclosure .", "2 . colour changing . most chameleons change from brown to green and back , but some can turn almost any colour . a change can occur in as little as 20 seconds . chameleons are born with special cells that have a colour or pigment in them . these cells lie in layers under the chameleon\u2019s outer skin . they are called chromatophores . the top layers of chromatophores have red or yellow pigment . the lower layers have blue or white pigment . when these pigment cells change , the chameleon\u2019s skin colour changes .", "there are more than 160 sub species of the chameleon and they have a huge diversity when it comes to where they are located . some of those common areas include florida , california , hawaii , asia , sri lanka , spain , madagascar , and portugal .", "] that offer possible explanations for the production of this biodiversity . in this study , we focused on four hypotheses that we consider the most likely candidates for diversification , based on our chameleon target group distributions ( e . g not montane ) and ecology ( see", "carpet chameleons do well on a diet of medium - sized crickets , flies and other small insects . offer five to six gut - loaded feeder insects per meal . i generally feed my chameleons twice a week , and i allow the feeder insects to roam the cage freely . this forces chameleons to use their hunting abilities and keep their tongues strong . dish feeding is also an option , but there is a higher risk of tongue damage when using a dish .", "the time period for actual mating can vary from a few minutes to more than an hour . the carpet chameleons should not be disturbed during this time . after mating has taken place , the pair pulls apart , and the female usually tries to escape the vicinity of the male . remove the female , place her in her enclosure , offer food and water , and let her relax . if the female doesn\u2019t show signs of being gravid , try mating her again .", "if you intend to breed carpet chameleons ( furcifer [ chamaeleo ] lateralis ssp . ) , please purchase only unrelated animals . some species are represented by very small gene pools , and extra effort must be made to keep these animals genetically divergent and pure to avoid genetic depression and hybridization . captive - bred or wild - caught furcifer lateralis subspecies mature and breed at the early age of 8 to 12 months , and they are subsequently gravid for the rest of their reproductive lives .", "the chameleon is a very popular type of lizard due to the fact that it has the ability to change colors based on their mood . this also allows them to blend into the surroundings for safety . other factors influence color too including mating season and even the temperature around them .", "the mating season for the chameleon can vary based on the time of year and the location of them . the sub species that is being evaluated will also influence that period of time . all chameleons lay eggs and that typically will occur in four weeks or less after mating takes place .", "many people think chameleons change colour to blend in with their surroundings . scientists disagree . their studies show that light , temperature and mood cause chameleons to change colour . sometimes changing colour can make the chameleon more comfortabl . sometimes it helps the animal communicate with other chameleons . [ source ]", "there aren\u2019t many chameleons who can make their whole body red , but several types of panther chameleon display some red in their pattern . one exception is male panther chameleons from the east coast of madagascar , notably those from tamatave , who display bright red or orange coloration over their entire body .", "chameleon owners need to be prepared to spend not only time on this creature but also money . the lizard is normally the most inexpensive part of startup costs . hidden costs include parasite checks , possible treatment , follow - up fecal checks , possible blood work , tests for bacterial infections and other expenses .", "any animal that can change colours and look in two directions at once is worth learning more about . armed with a tongue you have to see to believe , the chameleon may be one of the coolest reptiles on the planet . here are ten things you may not have known about our lizard friend .", "chameleons are famous for changing colors . they don\u2019t do it to camouflage themselves , as is commonly thought ; they change color in response to temperature , stress level , reproductive state and mood . male chameleons are usually more boldly colored than females and usually display their most intense colors when confronted by another chameleon .", "even when you are familiar with the various locations where the chameleon you may not see them . they do blend in exceptionally well to their surroundings . as a result you will have to try to focus on a given area and be patient to wait to see if you can make out the shape of one of them .", "i have had much better luck breeding and maintaining healthier captive animals with a humidity higher than 70 percent . if humidity in the enclosure drops below 70 percent , a weekly deep hydration is necessary . even with a humidifier present i prefer this shower method . gently place the chameleon on a clothes - drying rack or plant in the shower stall . turn the shower on so a light , lukewarm rain falls on the chameleon for 30 to 60 minutes . in drier climates the shower method may be used twice a week or more . outdoor enclosures can be fitted with automatic mister systems , which reduce the risk of dehydration and make watering easier for the lizardkeeper .", "chameleons are loners . in fact , most of the time females don ' t want males to even come near them . during the rare moments when the female is willing to be touched , the male will approach for mating . a brighter colored male chameleon is more likely to convince a female to mate than a duller colored male .", "breeding only the strongest and healthiest chameleons adds to the future strength of the gene pool . all subspecies of f . lateralis are avid breeders . in my experience , once sexual maturity is reached , female carpet chameleons have produced a clutch every six to eight weeks . maturity can occur as early as 2 or 3 months of age . once bred , females lay between five and 20 eggs depending on the subspecies . generally larger subspecies produce more eggs than the smaller ones . eggs hatch in as few as five to seven months . they can produce upwards of 200 eggs in a lifetime .", "the most obvious motive ( even if not the most important ) is camouflage . even if the standard coloration of most chameleon species is cryptic enough , in case of necessity chameleons are able to blend in even more with their surroundings . this helps them not to be detected by their prey , but mainly to go unnoticed by their predators .", "the chameleon has a body that is wide and appears to be puffed up . they have a head that is narrow so you can see their shoulders from the front . they have wide eyes on the sides of the head and a tongue that is wide and long . they move from side to side when they walk with a gait that appears to be quite awkward .", "this species , as with most other chameleon species , is strictly diurnal . they generally spend the early part of the day warming up their bodies by assuming a very dark coloration and exposing as much surface area as possible to sunlight . after they have reached the desired body temperature , they begin hunting for prey , an activity which usually lasts for the rest of the daylight hours .", "5 . ballistic tongues that are 1 . 5 - 2 times the length of their body . chameleons feed by ballistically projecting their long tongue from their mouth to capture prey located some distance away . while the chameleon\u2019s tongue is typically thought to be 1 . 5 to 2 times the length of their body ( their length excluding the tail ) , it has been recently discovered that smaller chameleons have proportionately larger tongue apparatuses than their larger counterparts . tongue projection occurs at extremely high performance , reaching the prey in as little as 0 . 07 seconds , having been launched at accelerations exceeding 41 g . the chameleon tongue\u2019s tip is a bulbous ball of muscle , and as it hits its prey it rapidly forms a small suction cup . [ source 1 , source 2 ]", "may contain chameleons in small terrariums . the main thing that creature felt roomy , comfortable . the bottom is littered with a thick ball of a special substrate . since the heat - loving animals , it requires special care . above the house your pet arrange lamps with ultraviolet radiation . daytime temperature should be about twenty - five degrees , the lamp can not use at night . daily moisturize the air in the terrarium . sprinkling the bottom wall of the water drops . this procedure is recommended in the morning . as feed , use of cockroaches , beetles . they also eat green food ( spinach , lettuce , dandelion leaves ) . insects can be purchased at a pet store . carpet chameleon eats a lot . so feed him every day . drink animals ordinary water . at the bottom of the cage , place a sustainable capacity in water . but as chameleons do not like to drink , you need to water them occasionally violently . the main thing is not to overdo . in the mouth , pour a few drops . for ease of use the syringe , pipette .", "3 . chameleon eyes have a 360 - degree arc of vision and can see two directions at once . chameleons have the most distinctive eyes of any reptile . their upper and lower eyelids are joined , with only a pinhole large enough for the pupil to see through . they can rotate and focus separately to observe two different objects simultaneously , which lets their eyes move independently from each other .", "the tongue is another interesting feature of the chameleon . the tip of their tongue is covered with a sticky secretion that grabs its prey . they can \" shoot out \" their long tongue ( which can be as long as their body ) and have their prey in their mouth in a fraction of a second ( faster than what the human eye can see ) . they can repeat this action immediately afterwards .", "chameleons live in madagascar , africa , spain , portugal and asia in rain forests , savannas , semi - deserts and steppes , according to the san diego zoo . they typically stay in trees or bushes , though some species do live on the ground . for example , the horned leaf chameleon lives in dead leaves on forest floors according to the national wildlife federation . [ photos : 11 colorful chameleons of madagascar ]", "no matter what species , chameleons become mature at 1 to 2 years of age . the exception is the madagascan chameleon . it has been labeled as the vertebrate with the world ' s shortest life span , according to encyclopedia britannica . their eggs hatch in november , the young become adults in january , they lay eggs in february , and then the entire adult population perishes after a lifespan of just three months .", "a gravid female chameleon that does not like to be in the proximity of an amorous male usually exhibits unreceptive coloration , which is different from her normal resting colors . this beautiful display of color announces to the male that female does not want anything to do with him . yet some males will try to mount anyway , so to prevent unnecessary stress , it is advisable to remove a gravid female after mating has taken place .", "carefully dig up the chameleon eggs , and place them in a plastic container with a sealed lid for incubation . i use a tupperware cupcake container without holes . the container should be filled halfway with damp vermiculite purchased at a garden center . mix in enough water so when it\u2019s squeezed , a few droplets dribble off . too much water drowns the eggs . place eggs in rows 1 inch apart and half - buried in vermiculite .", "although i believe chameleons should be in natural sunlight as much as possible , an indoor environment is fine for most animals . they require a full - spectrum fluorescent light and a heat dome light . i position the dome light so the highest point the chameleon can reach is no more than 90 degrees fahrenheit . ambient temperatures can range from 70 to 80 degrees . chameleons should not be able to touch bulbs , or burns can result .", "chameleons are different from many reptiles because some of the species , like the jackson\u2019s chameleon , have live births . these species can give birth to eight to 30 young at one time after a gestation of four to six months . while the young are born live instead of in an egg , they started as an egg . these mothers incubate the eggs , minus a shell , inside of her body instead of laying them in a nest .", "is almost entirely insectivorous , and prefers insects which normally reside in trees or shrubs . these include most flies , grasshoppers and crickets , and various insect larvae . adult specimens are also known to consume very small lizards and even small newborn rodents ( in captivity ) . this species hunts for food in the typical chameleon style of slowly creeping through tree or shrub branches , using its excellent eyesight to spot insects . as the desired prey is selected ,", "the chameleon tends to be a timid type of lizard and they will retreat rather than fight when they can . they are often kept as pets due to their calm nature and the fact that they can amazingly change colors . however , they can be tough to care for because they need the right balance of food , heat , and places to climb in order to really thrive . they are believed to be a very intelligent species of lizard .", "also watch them for signs of overheating while in direct sunlight . chameleons showing dark green or solid black are basking . blanching , turning very light green , yellow or even white , indicates that the animal should be removed from the sun and given shade and water . a trip to the shower for \u201cdeep hydration , \u201d a watering method i discuss later , is a good idea for any chameleon found overheated , blanched or panting with an open mouth .", "the main function of chameleons colour change is intraspecific communication . chameleons use different colour patterns known as liveries in some countries , which are changed in order to transmit information to other individuals of their same species like their stress degree , their reproductive or health status , etc\u2026 a chameleon\u2019s standard coloration is usually similar to that of their habitat . so , this colour pattern usually indicates a healthy animal , while if they feel sick or have some physical problem , they usually present paler and duller colorations .", "a total of 129 individuals belonging to furcifer oustaleti ( n = 89 ) and furcifer verrucosus ( n = 40 ) , collected between 1990 and 2012 , were included for analysis . the closely related species furcifer labordi , furcifer major , and furcifer antimena were included to test the sister species relationship of f . verrucosus and f . oustaleti [ 1 , 2 , 5 ] . furcifer campani was used as the furcifer outgroup taxon to root all phylogenetic trees . the following chameleon species were also included in the species tree analysis to estimate divergence dates : chamaeleo namaquensis , chamaeleo chamaeleon , furcifer cephalolepis , and furcifer polleni . these species are distantly related to the ingroup taxa , and were only included to allow for the fossil calibration in the divergence dating analysis .", "another in the too -

taylor 2000 ) .", "version 3 . 0 : iucn / ssc criteria review working group ( 1999 ) following comments received , a series of workshops were convened to look at the iucn red list criteria following which , changes were proposed affecting the criteria , the definitions of some key terms and the handling of uncertainty .", "version 3 . 1 : iucn ( 2001 ) the iucn council adopted this latest version , which incorporated changes as a result of comments from the iucn and ssc memberships and from a final meeting of the criteria review working group , in february 2000 .", "all new assessments from january 2001 should use the latest adopted version and cite the year of publication and version number .", "in the rest of this document , the proposed system is outlined in several sections . section ii , the preamble , presents basic information about the context and structure of the system , and the procedures that are to be followed in applying the criteria to species . section iii provides definitions of key terms used . section iv presents the categories , while section v details the quantitative criteria used for classification within the threatened categories . annex i provides guidance on how to deal with uncertainty when applying the criteria ; annex ii suggests a standard format for citing the red list categories and criteria ; and annex iii outlines the documentation requirements for taxa to be included on iucn ' s global red lists . it is important for the effective functioning of the system that all sections are read and understood to ensure that the definitions and rules are followed .", "the information in this section is intended to direct and facilitate the use and interpretation of the categories ( critically endangered , endangered , etc . ) , criteria ( a to e ) , and subcriteria ( 1 , 2 , etc . ; a , b , etc . ; i , ii , etc . ) .", "extinction is a chance process . thus , a listing in a higher extinction risk category implies a higher expectation of extinction , and over the time - frames specified more taxa listed in a higher category are expected to go extinct than those in a lower one ( without effective conservation action ) . however , the persistence of some taxa in high - risk categories does not necessarily mean their initial assessment was inaccurate .", "all taxa listed as critically endangered qualify for vulnerable and endangered , and all listed as endangered qualify for vulnerable . together these categories are described as ' threatened ' . the threatened categories form a part of the overall scheme . it will be possible to place all taxa into one of the categories ( see figure 1 ) .", "for listing as critically endangered , endangered or vulnerable there is a range of quantitative criteria ; meeting any one of these criteria qualifies a taxon for listing at that level of threat . each taxon should be evaluated against all the criteria . even though some criteria will be inappropriate for certain taxa ( some taxa will never qualify under these however close to extinction they come ) , there should be criteria appropriate for assessing threat levels for any taxon . the relevant factor is whether any one criterion is met , not whether all are appropriate or all are met . because it will never be clear in advance which criteria are appropriate for a particular taxon , each taxon should be evaluated against all the criteria , and all criteria met at the highest threat category must be listed .", "the different criteria ( a - e ) are derived from a wide review aimed at detecting risk factors across the broad range of organisms and the diverse life histories they exhibit . the quantitative values presented in the various criteria associated with threatened categories were developed through wide consultation , and they are set at what are generally judged to be appropriate levels , even if no formal justification for these values exists . the levels for different criteria within categories were set independently but against a common standard . broad consistency between them was sought .", "the criteria for the threatened categories are to be applied to a taxon whatever the level of conservation action affecting it . it is important to emphasise here that a taxon may require conservation action even if it is not listed as threatened . conservation actions which may benefit the taxon are included as part of the documentation requirements ( see annex 3 ) .", "taxa at risk from threats posed by future events of low probability but with severe consequences ( catastrophes ) should be identified by the criteria ( e . g . small distributions , few locations ) . some threats need to be identified particularly early , and appropriate actions taken , because their effects are irreversible or nearly so ( e . g . , pathogens , invasive organisms , hybridization ) .", "the data used to evaluate taxa against the criteria are often estimated with considerable uncertainty . such uncertainty can arise from any one or all of the following three factors : natural variation , vagueness in the terms and definitions used , and measurement error . the way in which this uncertainty is handled can have a strong influence on the results of an evaluation . details of methods recommended for handling uncertainty are included in annex 1 , and assessors are encouraged to read and follow these principles .", "in general , when uncertainty leads to wide variation in the results of assessments , the range of possible outcomes should be specified . a single category must be chosen and the basis for the decision should be documented ; it should be both precautionary and credible .", "when data are very uncertain , the category of ' data deficient ' may be assigned . however , in this case the assessor must provide documentation showing that this category has been assigned because data are inadequate to determine a threat category . it is important to recognize that taxa that are poorly known can often be assigned a threat category on the basis of background information concerning the deterioration of their habitat and / or other causal factors ; therefore the liberal use of ' data deficient ' is discouraged .", "listing in the categories of not evaluated and data deficient indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made , though for different reasons . until such time as an assessment is made , taxa listed in these categories should not be treated as if they were non - threatened . it may be appropriate ( especially for data deficient forms ) to give them the same degree of attention as threatened taxa , at least until their status can be assessed .", "all assessments should be documented . threatened classifications should state the criteria and subcriteria that were met . no assessment can be accepted for the iucn red list as valid unless at least one criterion is given . if more than one criterion or subcriterion is met , then each should be listed . if a re - evaluation indicates that the documented criterion is no longer met , this should not result in automatic reassignment to a lower category of threat ( downlisting ) . instead , the taxon should be re - evaluated against all the criteria to clarify its status . the factors responsible for qualifying the taxon against the criteria , especially where inference and projection are used , should be documented ( see annexes 2 and 3 ) . the documentation requirements for other categories are also specified in annex 3 .", "the category of threat is not necessarily sufficient to determine priorities for conservation action . the category of threat simply provides an assessment of the extinction risk under current circumstances , whereas a system for assessing priorities for action will include numerous other factors concerning conservation action such as costs , logistics , chances of success , and other biological characteristics of the subject .", "re - evaluation of taxa against the criteria should be carried out at appropriate intervals . this is especially important for taxa listed under near threatened , data deficient and for threatened taxa whose status is known or suspected to be deteriorating .", "a taxon may be moved from a category of higher threat to a category of lower threat if none of the criteria of the higher category has been met for five years or more .", "if the original classification is found to have been erroneous , the taxon may be transferred to the appropriate category or removed from the threatened categories altogether , without delay ( but see point 10 above ) .", "the term ' population ' is used in a specific sense in the red list criteria that is different to its common biological usage . population is here defined as the total number of individuals of the taxon . for functional reasons , primarily owing to differences between life forms , population size is measured as numbers of mature individuals only . in the case of taxa obligately dependent on other taxa for all or part of their life cycles , biologically appropriate values for the host taxon should be used .", "subpopulations are defined as geographically or otherwise distinct groups in the population between which there is little demographic or genetic exchange ( typically one successful migrant individual or gamete per year or less ) .", "the number of mature individuals is the number of individuals known , estimated or inferred to be capable of reproduction . when estimating this quantity , the following points should be borne in mind :", "mature individuals that will never produce new recruits should not be counted ( e . g . densities are too low for fertilization ) .", "in the case of populations with biased adult or breeding sex ratios , it is appropriate to use lower estimates for the number of mature individuals , which take this into account .", "where the population size fluctuates , use a lower estimate . in most cases this will be much less than the mean .", "reproducing units within a clone should be counted as individuals , except where such units are unable to survive alone ( e . g . corals ) .", "in the case of taxa that naturally lose all or a subset of mature individuals at some point in their life cycle , the estimate should be made at the appropriate time , when mature individuals are available for breeding .", "re - introduced individuals must have produced viable offspring before they are counted as mature individuals .", "generation length is the average age of parents of the current cohort ( i . e . newborn individuals in the population ) . generation length therefore reflects the turnover rate of breeding individuals in a population . generation length is greater than the age at first breeding and less than the age of the oldest breeding individual , except in taxa that breed only once . where generation length varies under threat , the more natural , i . e . pre - disturbance , generation length should be used .", "a reduction is a decline in the number of mature individuals of at least the amount ( % ) stated under the criterion over the time period ( years ) specified , although the decline need not be continuing . a reduction should not be interpreted as part of a fluctuation unless there is good evidence for this . the downward phase of a fluctuation will not normally count as a reduction .", "a continuing decline is a recent , current or projected future decline ( which may be smooth , irregular or sporadic ) which is liable to continue unless remedial measures are taken . fluctuations will not normally count as continuing declines , but an observed decline should not be considered as a fluctuation unless there is evidence for this .", "extreme fluctuations can be said to occur in a number of taxa when population size or distribution area varies widely , rapidly and frequently , typically with a variation greater than one order of magnitude ( i . e . a tenfold increase or decrease ) .", "the phrase ' severely fragmented ' refers to the situation in which increased extinction risk to the taxon results from the fact that most of its individuals are found in small and relatively isolated subpopulations ( in certain circumstances this may be inferred from habitat information ) . these small subpopulations may go extinct , with a reduced probability of recolonization .", "extent of occurrence is defined as the area contained within the shortest continuous imaginary boundary which can be drawn to encompass all the known , inferred or projected sites of present occurrence of a taxon , excluding cases of vagrancy ( see figure 2 ) . this measure may exclude discontinuities or disjunctions within the overall distributions of taxa ( e . g . large areas of obviously unsuitable habitat ) ( but see ' area of occupancy ' , point 10 below ) . extent of occurrence can often be measured by a minimum convex polygon ( the smallest polygon in which no internal angle exceeds 180 degrees and which contains all the sites of occurrence ) .", "figure 2 . two examples of the distinction between extent of occurrence and area of occupancy . ( a ) is the spatial distribution of known , inferred or projected sites of present occurrence . ( b ) shows one possible boundary to the extent of occurrence , which is the measured area within this boundary . ( c ) shows one measure of area of occupancy which can be achieved by the sum of the occupied grid squares .", "the term ' location ' defines a geographically or ecologically distinct area in which a single threatening event can rapidly affect all individuals of the taxon present . the size of the location depends on the area covered by the threatening event and may include part of one or many subpopulations . where a taxon is affected by more than one threatening event , location should be defined by considering the most serious plausible threat .", "a quantitative analysis is defined here as any form of analysis which estimates the extinction probability of a taxon based on known life history , habitat requirements , threats and any specified management options . population viability analysis ( pva ) is one such technique . quantitative analyses should make full use of all relevant available data . in a situation in which there is limited information , such data as are available can be used to provide an estimate of extinction risk ( for instance , estimating the impact of stochastic events on habitat ) . in presenting the results of quantitative analyses , the assumptions ( which must be appropriate and defensible ) , the data used and the uncertainty in the data or quantitative model must be documented .", "extinct ( ex ) a taxon is extinct when there is no reasonable doubt that the last individual has died . a taxon is presumed extinct when exhaustive surveys in known and / or expected habitat , at appropriate times ( diurnal , seasonal , annual ) , throughout its historic range have failed to record an individual . surveys should be over a time frame appropriate to the taxon ' s life cycle and life form .", "extinct in the wild ( ew ) a taxon is extinct in the wild when it is known only to survive in cultivation , in captivity or as a naturalized population ( or populations ) well outside the past range . a taxon is presumed extinct in the wild when exhaustive surveys in known and / or expected habitat , at appropriate times ( diurnal , seasonal , annual ) , throughout its historic range have failed to record an individual . surveys should be over a time frame appropriate to the taxon ' s life cycle and life form .", "critically endangered ( cr ) a taxon is critically endangered when the best available evidence indicates that it meets any of the criteria a to e for critically endangered ( see section v ) , and it is therefore considered to be facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild .", "endangered ( en ) a taxon is endangered when the best available evidence indicates that it meets any of the criteria a to e for endangered ( see section v ) , and it is therefore considered to be facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild .", "vulnerable ( vu ) a taxon is vulnerable when the best available evidence indicates that it meets any of the criteria a to e for vulnerable ( see section v ) , and it is therefore considered to be facing a high risk of extinction in the wild .", "near threatened ( nt ) a taxon is near threatened when it has been evaluated against the criteria but does not qualify for critically endangered , endangered or vulnerable now , but is close to qualifying for or is likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future .", "least concern ( lc ) a taxon is least concern when it has been evaluated against the criteria and does not qualify for critically endangered , endangered , vulnerable or near threatened . widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category .", "not evaluated ( ne ) a taxon is not evaluated when it is has not yet been evaluated against the criteria .", "note : as in previous iucn categories , the abbreviation of each category ( in parenthesis ) follows the english denominations when translated into other languages ( see annex 2 ) .", "( e ) the effects of introduced taxa , hybridization , pathogens , pollutants , competitors or parasites .", "e . quantitative analysis showing the probability of extinction in the wild is at least 50 % within 10 years or three generations , whichever is the longer ( up to a maximum of 100 years ) ."]}

south migration in the waters off california , oregon , washington , alaska , and canada . the females migrate south in the spring to give birth off oregon and california , where a significant number of neonates and young juveniles are found beached at that time every year .", "there appears to be a strong sexual segregation in this species with males dominating the western north pacific and females dominating the eastern north pacific . in fact , males and females probably do not form mixed groups , as catches of salmon sharks are almost always dominated by one sex or the other . although trans - pacific movements have not been documented , they are suspected to occur , particularly during the mating period , which is probably in summer or autumn .", "salmon shark populations also appear to be segregated by size , with large sharks generally inhabiting the more northern reaches of the species ' range , and smaller sharks staying in the southern parts . the larger , more mature sharks are more active in migrations , like the ones described above , while juveniles tend to remain in nursery areas until they reach about 3 . 6 to 3 . 9 ft ( 110 to 120 cm ) in length . the waters off the coast of california appear to be a major nursery ground for the northeast populations , with juveniles remaining there for one to two years after birth . the northwest salmon shark populations have nursery grounds in the open -

current heat exchangers ( retia mirabilia ) that allow them to retain the heat produced by the metabolism of these fast - swimming sharks . salmon sharks have retes in the cranium near the eyes , in the locomotor muscles , and in the viscera . they also have vascular shunts that allow them to alter the route of blood flow , further regulating rates of heat gain and heat loss . a few other fast - swimming fish , like tunas , also have this homeothermic ability , so this is an instance of convergent evolution between lamnid sharks and tunas .", "recent studies have shown that the salmon shark does indeed maintain an internal temperature well above ambient water temperature . in fact , the salmon shark probably has the greatest thermoregulatory ability of any shark , and internal body temperatures up to 60 . 1\u00b0f ( 15 . 6\u00b0c ) greater than sea surface temperature have been recorded .", "this thermoregulatory ability allows salmon sharks to range vertically through the water column in search of prey and to extend their niche to boreal waters .", "food habits salmon sharks are opportunistic feeders . their diet consists mainly of pelagic and demersal bony fishes , such as pacific salmon , steelhead trout , herring , sardines , pollock , alaska cod , tomcod , lancetfishes , daggerteeth , sauries , lanternfishes , pomfrets , mackerel , lumpfishes , sculpins , etc . non -

5 embryos . it is ovoviviparous , meaning that it gives birth to live young , but in the uterus ( womb ) , embryos have no placental or other direct connection to the mother . oophagy , or consumption of unfertilized eggs by embryos , has been documented in this species . during gestation , the mother continues to ovulate unfertilized eggs ( ova ) , which proceed from the ovary to the nidamental gland , where they are filled with yolk . these nutritive ova then pass to the uterus , where they are consumed by the growing embryos . this is how embryos are nourished during most of gestation . embryos are born at about 2 . 8 to 3 . 1 ft ( 84 -

they do not contain high oxalic acid amounts like spinach and chard . goiters caused by this are rare and the feeding of a varied diet that is not heavily based on these plants should offset this tendency .", "these small attractively marked tortoises are found in the kalahari , cape and namibia . the geometric tortoise is an endangered species and is subject to strong legal protection . these are all delicate small tortoises that are extremely difficult to maintain in captivity outside their natural areas . they are very prone to respiratory disease especially if housed with other species -

return resources as defined by foraging models , especially in relation to polynesian fishing technologies . ecological , life history , and sportfishing data is compiled in support of this claim , while their role in indigenous fisheries is assessed with linguistic , ethnographic , and archaeological evidence . the latter shows that , despite being naturally distributed across the region , and recognized by a common polynesian referent ( kiokio or a close cognate ) , only two polynesian localities ( cook and hawaiian islands ) provide unambiguous historical evidence for well - developed albula fisheries ; their historical importance also is suggested on tubuai ( austral islands ) where they have declined . in tokelau and in the tuamotu islands they play a modest role in contemporary fisheries , while the evidence compiled here suggests more incidental use elsewhere in polynesia . three hypotheses are examined to explain the disjunction between the highreturn potentials of bonefishes and the available evidence for their traditional importance : 1 ) ethnographic and archaeological preservation and / or collection biases are factors ; 2 ) bonefishing was once more widely practiced but has declined as a result of harvesting pressures , climate change , or other processes ; and / or 3 ) geographic variability in conditions favoring bonefish abundance ( e . g . , habitat , food sources ) have led to a discontinuous and uneven pattern of cultural use across polynesia . the available evidence suggests that all three factors may be relevant .", "physical characteristics : bonefishes have a blue -

strewn bottom , other times in a weed - choked area , and even over mud . adaptation to this extreme environment has lead to another evolutionary \u201cleap\u201d ( please excuse the pun ) \u2014they are excellent jumpers . often in this extremely shallow environment , they need to move from one small water hole to another . they do this by jumping , flipping , and otherwise hopping from leaf to leaf and pool to pool .", "my late friend , well - known aquarium fish international contributor al castro , used to tell the humorous story of his first experience with a pair of f . gardneri . he brought them home and put them in a gallon jar . he walked outside to call his wife in from the garden to come and see them . she asked him if he meant the fish that had followed him out . he turned around , and there on the ground was the male , flipping and flopping down the sidewalk . he went inside and found the female flipping her way across the floor . learn from al , and keep them tightly covered !", "a setup for keeping f . gardneri can be as simple as a gallon jar or as elaborate as a well - decorated planted aquarium . they are ideally suited for the desktop aquariums with built - in filtration and lighting now becoming popular . these nano tanks , from 5 to 10 gallons in size , and with a variety of beautiful plants , would be an ideal home for a couple of pairs .", "water changes are very important . keep the water as clean as possible , especially in a smaller aquarium , and doubly so if you have no filter in the aquarium . room temperature is fine , so no heater is necessary , unless the temperature drops into the low 60s fahrenheit . then a small heater set to the low 70s will be all that is needed . no filter is necessary , again as long as you change water frequently . water parameters are not that important , as f . gardneri comes from a wide range of habitats and is pretty adaptable . ideal conditions would be a ph just below neutral with low hardness . some killifish hobbyists add salt to the water ; others don\u2019t . i\u2019m one of the aquarists who doesn\u2019t , and i\u2019ve never had a problem with them .", "as i mentioned , many killifish hobbyists keep them as pairs or trios in small \u201ccritter tanks\u201d ( the kind with the tight - fitting lids ) . there is no filtration or lighting , though f . gardneri are not shy , as are many other killifish , and they love bright light . these killifish hobbyists do water changes two or three times a week , and feed live foods exclusively , so there is little pollution in the water . the idea here is breeding . for this , they use a couple of nylon yarn mops . i\u2019ll have more on this method of breeding in just a bit .", "i like to use a planted 10 - gallon aquarium . i prefer to use what killifish hobbyists call the \u201cpermanent method\u201d for keeping and breeding them . this means setting up a standard 10 - gallon aquarium with a nice grouping of plants at all levels of the aquarium , including floating plants . i use water sprite ( ceratopteris sp . ) . the adults live in this aquarium all the time . fry appear on occasion , and i remove them with a small cup to a separate rearing aquarium . this method is not as productive as using mops , but it is a lot easier .", "if you want maximum productivity , there are several things to do to increase egg production . first , separate the adults for a week or two . feed them heavily on live foods and meaty frozen foods , such as bloodworms and brine shrimp . give them a lot of water changes . this is known as conditioning the breeders . after about two weeks of conditioning , put the pair together in a breeding aquarium with a couple of nylon spawning mops lying on the bottom . the fish will start spawning within hours . by the next day , the mops should be full of eggs . the eggs can be easily seen in the mops as clear round \u201cbubbles . \u201d remove the mops to a separate small aquarium or plastic shoebox filled with water of similar parameters as the spawning aquarium . then add a couple more mops to the aquarium . give the pair another day or so , and then move them back to the main aquarium . the mops can be added to the same hatching container as the previous mops .", "some breeders add a bit of salt and a drop of methylene blue to the hatch water , along with a slowly bubbling airstone . others add acriflavine instead of the methylene blue . still others add nothing special to the hatch water . the idea is to keep any fungus that develops on infertile eggs from infecting the fertile eggs . a variation on this is to use a small dish filled with a hatch mix ( water , methylene blue , salt ) . hand - pick individual eggs , and drop them one at a time into this hatch container . this is very labor intensive , but it gives the breeder good control , so they can quickly remove any eggs that go bad .", "whatever method you choose , the eggs will hatch in about 14 days . upon hatching , the fry have used up their yolk sacs and are hungry . they will take newly hatched brine shrimp , vinegar eels , microworms or walter worms , and other small foods such as commercial fry foods . i gently remove each baby fish from the hatch container immediately after they hatch and move them to a plastic shoebox filled with clean water of the same parameters . i add a clump of java moss ( taxiphyllum sp . ) to the box and a couple of small ramshorn snails to help clean up uneaten food .", "the fry grow quickly and in just about 7 or 8 weeks , the young males will begin to color up . if you reach this point , congratulations ! you\u2019ve had another successful adventure in fish breeding .", "the author outlines the complex history and classification of this popular killifish , with a focus on optimal living conditions , breeding , and its widely variable populations .", "maturity : l m ? range ? -

exactly what fish to purchase because killifish are generally referred to ( especially amongst enthusiasts ) by their scientific names and some familiarity is needed to know what fish these names represent . as you read about the various species in publications like the journal of the american killifish association ( jaka ) and a variety of books that are available , you will develop a sense for the fish .", "when the time comes to choose your first killies , do so with care . needless to say , choose healthy fish , but be careful also to choose fish that are correctly identified . many species and strains of killifish look very similar and killies sold in pet stores are frequently misidentified . furthermore , many killifish are maintained as known locality strains . for example nothobranchius rachovii beira \u201991 , a very beautiful fish , represents a particular strain of this species identified by the locality and the year in which it was collected . it is strongly felt , in the killie hobby , that such strains not be crossed with others , even when they appear to be the same fish . such crossings can produce hybrids , which may be sterile , or at least are fish that nature never produced .", "the remainder of this section will briefly discuss some of the genera of killifish , and some of the species found within them , with a particular emphasis on those that are suitable for beginners .", "this is one of the most popular of the killifish genera among hobbyists , and it contains a large number of species that are maintained in the hobby . these species hail from west africa , many are beautiful and relatively easy to maintain and breed . most are spawned on floating mops ( see below ) .", "one of the most commonly seen and a suitable beginner\u2019s fish , is aphyosemion australe , one the few killies that does have a common name , the lyretail . this species spawns in floating mops . it comes in three color strains . the chocolate is the natural form , while the gold and the orange were developed in aquarium populations . other species in this genus that are suitable for beginners are a . calliurum , a . ahli , and a . bivittatum . aphyosemions with the same species name are often identified as coming from specific populations or locations . different populations may or may not be genetically identical .", "this genus contains several very colorful species that are suitable for beginners . these include the popular fp . gardneri , fp . filamentosus , and the emblem fish of the aka , fp . sjoestedti . many of the strains of fp . gardneri are relatively easy to maintain and breed as is fp . filamentosus . fp . sjoestedti is a little more challenging , although it can be hard to resist its charms . all of these species come in several strains . some fp . gardneri are top spawners , while fp . gardneri nigerianus and fp . gardneri garderni are switch ( top / bottom ) spawners . the other two species mentioned are bottom spawners .", "there a several popular genera and species amongst the south american annuals . nematolebias whitei is an excellent beginner\u2019s fish , easily bred and cared for in the aquarium . it is a truly elegant fish and its spawning behavior is fascinating . perhaps its only disadvantage is that , like many other annuals , the beginner has to wait for some months between first spawning and first hatch .", "species in this genus are surface fish , feeding on insects that fall into the water . they prefer to lay their eggs at the top of floating mops or plants . they are hardy , many are of good size , and many are easily bred and maintained in aquaria . good examples , and good choices for beginners are e . sexfasciatus and e . fasciolatus . the genus also contains some challenging species . for example , the diminutive e . annulatus , although strikingly beautiful , would not be a good beginner\u2019s choice .", "there are many other interesting genera , including the north american native killies , including the desert pupfish and the florida flagfish , jordenella floridae , the genera rivulus , rachovia , austrofundulus , and on and on . many of these are discussed elsewhere on this site .", "as discussed already , it is easy to hybridize some of the killies species . it is the policy of the american killifish association to discourage hybridization except for scientific and research purposes . the organization believes that the fishes should remain as they are in nature and that hobbyists should not intentionally change color patterns , form , or identity . every member of the aka is urged to maintain this policy .", "everyone is urged to maintain the highest standards in his fish keeping by maintaining optimum environmental standards for his or her fish and by only passing on fish to other hobbyists that meet the highest standards of good health and color .", "good luck with your hobby and may you have many years of success and enjoyment with killies . if you are not yet a member of the aka , we look forward to having you join and meeting you .", "as will be discussed later in this document , fry are often hatched in smaller containers , such as plastic \u201cshoe boxes\u201d or other storage boxes . in a typical fishroom for killifish , therefore , you will usually see tanks and containers in a wide variety of sizes . how these are arranged is a matter of personal taste , but killie fishrooms often have racks of tanks with small breeding tanks on top and larger rearing tanks below . one advantage of a fishroom is that the whole room , rather than individual tanks , can be heated . the fishroom shown here is that of norbert dadaniak in germany . you can click on the image to see it at larger size . use the back button to return to this page .", "planted tanks are pleasing to view , and plants help to utilize organic wastes produced by the fish and , to some degree , in oxygenating the water . however , many killie keepers avoid the use of plants in breeding tanks , and even in rearing tanks . plants can make the collection of eggs , described later , difficult . furthermore , bottom spawners may spawn in the gravel substrate , which is may be undesirable . on the other hand , one technique for spawning the \u201cplant spawners\u201d involves the use of a permanently planted tank and some breeders spawn bottom spawners over gravel . a common compromise is to use bare breeding tanks , and planted rearing tanks .", "what plants to use is a matter of choice for the aquarist but , because killies often do best in tanks with relatively low lighting levels , plants tolerant of low light conditions are best . these include the cryptocorynes , java moss , and java fern . if gravel is used as a substrate it usually should be of a type that will not harden the water . a quartz sand or fine gravel favored by aquatic plant enthusiasts is # 3 blasting sand , available at many hardware stores .", "many killies , such as the aphyosemions , come from forest streams that are protected from direct sunlight , and prefer subdued lighting . in brightly lit aquaria , plants may provide some shading for killies that prefer low light conditions . many killies appear at their best when light falls from above and to the front of the tank . because of this , many killie enthusiasts illuminate their tanks , especially breeding tanks , by ceiling lights , with fixtures over only those tanks where more intense lighting is required .", "small aquaria , such as are often used for housing killies , are more easily polluted than large aquaria . the relatively small volume of water easily accumulates waste products , generating ammonia and nitrites , which are extremely toxic to fish . most killie keepers , at least in the united states , therefore utilize some form of aeration and filtration . air driven filters provide a home for aerobic nitrifying bacteria , which break down the harmful ammonia and nitrite to nitrate , a much less toxic end product .", "various types of filters can be used , but for small tanks the most popular are simple box filters , containing filter \u201cwool\u201d , or sponge filters . both provide a large surface area for bacteria to colonize and filter particulate matter from the water . sponge filters have the advantage of not entrapping fry , a potential problem with box filters . in larger aquaria where a substrate is being used , under - gravel filters may also be used .", "ideal water temperatures vary depending on the species , but for most killifish the temperature should be in the range of 72 - 75 \u00b0f . conventional aquarium heaters may be used , but because serious killie keepers have several or many tanks , it is common for the whole room to be heated . another advantage of this approach is that tank covers do not have to accommodate heater cables . many killies are great jumpers and will exit the tank , and this life , through such small openings . the killie fancier , therefore , must ensure that tank covers are closely fitted .", "it is impossible to generalize about the water conditions required by killies . some , such as a . cameronense come from soft , acid waters , while others come from harder , alkaline waters , and others from brackish waters . some killies must have particular water conditions . others , such as nothobranchius species , can tolerate a range of water conditions . naturally , no fish should be subjected to sudden changes in ph and hardness .", "the ph of water may be changed using weak acids , such as sodium biphosphate ( nah 2 po 4 ) or weak bases , such as sodium bicarbonate ( nahco 3 , or baking soda ) . it is easy to change ph excessively using these chemicals , and the ph change produced may not be stable . a better way to reduce ph is to filter the water through peat moss . the peat moss is best boiled and rinsed then placed in a box filter between layers of filter wool . after a day or two the water will be amber and somewhat more acid . to increase ph it is best to include some form of calcium carbonate in the tank , such as a lime sand or gravel . carbon dioxide ( co 2 ) released as a waste product by the fish dissolves in water to produce carbonic acid , which will react with calcium carbonate to produce soluble calcium bicarbonate . the latter provides buffering capacity , helping to stabilize the ph of the water in the aquarium .", "a varied and balanced diet is a practical necessity to achieve any degree of success with killifish , particularly in breeding them . many killifish do really well only if supplied with livefood . others do well on frozen foods and some , on dry foods . at any rate , exclusive use of a single food should be avoided , as this practice is likely to lead to nutritional imbalances and deficiencies . you will find useful information on foods on other sites , such as the krib .", "this food is a staple of many killie fishrooms . in some areas live adult brine shrimp can be purchased . these are a good nutritional source and are eagerly taken by most killies . as they live in strong salt water , they are less likely to carry parasites and bacteria harmful to freshwater fish . frozen brine shrimp are widely available and widely used . they are readily accepted by most fish but , as with any non - live food , care must be taken not to overfeed .", "this little crustacean is one of the most widely used live foods . daphnia can be cultured artificially , at least in limited quantities , but most aquarists collect them from pools and ponds . a drawback to use of daphnia collected in this way is the danger of collecting other organisms potentially dangerous to aquarium fish . daphnia are said to act as a laxative for fish and , like other foods , daphnia should not be fed exclusively .", "this is an excellent live food for killies , although available only seasonally . they may be collected from standing water and ponds , either by swiftly passing a net through the water near the surface , or by collecting the egg \u201crafts\u201d , which can be allowed to hatch in a container of water in the fishroom . many aquarists recommend culture of mosquito larvae by leaving out a container of water , which is allowed to become green with algae . the egg rafts or larvae are then collected under controlled conditions . care must be taken to avoid allowing the larvae to complete the life cycle and become mosquitoes . that is a good way to make yourself unpopular with the neighbors and should be avoided because of the mosquito borne west nile virus . as with the collection of other live foods , there is a risk of introducing fish enemies with the food .", "tubifex worms are small worms that live in filthy places , such as sewage run - offs and the like . they can be collected from such sites , or purchased from some stores . tubifex are an excellent food for killifish , but they carry the reputation of transmitting a variety of diseases . this risk may be reduced somewhat by holding the worms for a time in a shallow tray through which cold water runs . in this way evacuated matter and detritus from dead worms are washed away .", "blackworms are similar to , but distinct from , tubifex worms and are also an excellent food . they can be purchased , either from a store , or directly from companies that grow them for profit . some of these producers are associated with fish farming operations . others are dedicated purely to growing blackworms . those associated with fish farms may be more likely to transmit fish diseases . like tubifex , blackworms carry a reputation for transmitting diseases . however , some breeders swear by them . blackworms may be maintained for some time under running , cold water or refrigerated in dishes with enough water to barely cover them .", "two fruit fly ( drosophila ) mutants , vestigial wing and flightless , make excellent food for killies . by virtue of the mutations they bear , they cannot fly . they can crawl , though , so it is advisable to feed just enough that the fish will eat them immediately . these flies are usually cultured in some sort of bottle into which a fruit fly medium , with a sprinkle of dry yeast , has been placed . the bottle is plugged with a piece of plastic sponge , or some such thing , after the flies are added . after some days larvae will appear , which then pupate , and eventually adult flies will emerge , at which stage they can be fed to the fish . fruit fly medium can be cooked , but this is a time consuming and messy business . instant medium can be obtained from biological suppliers such as carolina biological , and is much easier to use . a starter culture of flies can be purchased from similar sources , or obtained from other hobbyists . starter cultures , again , are often listed in the f & el .", "beef heart , trimmed of fibrous tissue and fat , can be frozen , then grated to produce \u201cworm - like\u201d pieces . many hobbyists use beef heart as the basis for a prepared food containing vegetable matter , vitamins and other additives . others prepare similar paste foods based on shrimp and fish . these are fed as small pieces or gratings . care must be taken to feed only as much as will be eaten immediately , as remnants of this type of food can

leaving rates ( derived from previous empirical observations of unimpeded nest leaving ) to the non - interacting \u2018ants\u2019 did not reproduce the log - poisson statistics (", ") . therefore , the scenario in which the decision to leave the nest is a purely probabilistic consequence of the individual exit rate is inaccurate .", "statistics in the control colonies demonstrates that the log -

brood colonies show statistics that are intermediate between log poisson and poisson . we hypothesized that the removal of the brood would change the spatial distribution of the interactions between the workers within the colony , so causing a loss of log - poisson temporal statistics . indeed , the loss of the log - poisson behaviour suggests that the particular pattern of ant\u2013ant interactions mediated by the presence of brood of various developmental stages sorted into an annular structure is important for the generation of log - poisson statistics . in summary , to explain the production of the log - poisson statistics , it is necessary but not sufficient to invoke only the natural variation in the ants ' nest - leaving tendencies or the nature of the interactions between the workers .", "so what then would be sufficient ? it is reasonable to suppose that decreasing the density of ants within the nest might cause a reduction in the rate at which ants encounter one another . then , if individual exit probabilities were downregulated ( i . e . inhibited ) as the encounter rate decreases , the exit rate would decline more rapidly than if there were no density effects . clearly , in order to construct an individual - level model that reproduces the collective log - poisson statistics , we will need a much more detailed understanding of how ant\u2013ant interactions within the nest influence subsequent decisions to leave it .", "our results demonstrate how analysing the behaviour of social insect colonies using the tools of record dynamics brings new insights in their organization and opens up the prospect of developing a new theory to help identify what makes an ant colony a cohesive society . substantial and irreversible changes in complex systems can originate from the combination of temporal stochasticity and strong interactions between the components . in the physical sciences there is strong evidence for the role of such record dynamics in a wide range of condensed -

mate density . similar time intervals play an important role in allocating labor in partitioned tasks , efficiently balancing the numbers of workers foraging for material with the numbers using this material at the nest ( jeanne , 1986 ; seeley , 1995 ) . a second possibility is that each ant integrates information from many encounters over the duration of her visit . use of multiple encounters could improve the precision of her estimate , as others have suggested for partitioned tasks ( ratnieks and anderson , 1999 ) . similar cues have already been implicated in labor allocation within harvester ant colonies , where an ant ' s probability of switching to a given task is positively related to her rate of encounter with nest mates already performing that task ( greene and gordon , 2003 ; gordon and mehdiabadi , 1999 ) .", "in this study , i examined the potential roles of encounter rate and indirect pheromonal signals in detection of a nest - mate quorum . i began by determining when , during an emigration , scouts pay attention to quorum attainment , and by estimating the time they devote to its measurement . i then explicitly tested the importance of each cue by manipulating its availability to scouts and determining how this affected their subsequent recruitment decisions .", "apparatus used to control access of ants to a new nest site . the dish containing the old nest is mounted on a rack - and - pinion mechanism that allows it to be joined with or separated from the dish containing the new nest .", "the time required by ants to decide whether a quorum is present may help to distinguish among potential mechanisms . detection of volatile pheromones is potentially very rapid , while measurement of lag to the first encounter may be more time consuming , and integration of a series of encounters should take longer still . to determine whether time devoted to quorum detection changed as ants switched from tandem runs to transports , i measured the duration of each visit to the new site by individually marked recruiters . emigrations were observed in a large tray with fluon - coated walls . an inhabited nest was placed against one wall of the tray and a single empty nest against the opposite wall , 60\u201365 cm away . digital video cameras recorded the ants ' activity at each nest throughout the emigration . visit durations and subsequent recruitment behavior were measured from the videotapes . only data from ants that led tandem runs were analyzed . i excluded the visit before each ant ' s first recruitment to avoid confounding time devoted to quorum detection with time needed to assess the nest . also excluded were visits that followed searches in the arena , to avoid confounding quorum assessment with prolonged stays in the nest that may follow these searches . six emigrations were observed : three by colony a6 , two by colony 6 , and one by colony 1 ."]}

[ 5 ] the other reasons why serpent has been used is the shedding of the skin that indicated longevity and immortality . the snake ' s ability to change from a lethargic stage to one of rapid activity symbolized the power to convalesce from an illness .

we are testing the hypotheses that ( 1 ) different - sized workers are adaptive as specialists for different tasks ( perhaps not , in prep , even though body size is clearly predictive of what tasks workers perform : jandt et al . 2009 , jandt & dornhaus 2009 ) ; ( 2 ) that they are the result of a trade - off between cheap , low - quality and expensive , high - quality workers ( perhaps , in prep ) ; that ( 3 ) small workers have other benefits besides being cheaper to produce , even if they do not perform any task well ( they may live longer under conditions of dearth , couvillon & dornhaus 2010 ) ; or ( 4 ) that they are the non - adaptive result of a biased larval care system . we have also found that small workers do not seem to be adapted to flying at hotter temperatures ( couvillon et al . 2010 ) . there is however some evidence that colonies which do have workers of varying body size perform better at some tasks ( in prep ) .", "we are studying the interactions and the exchange of workers , brood , and food between the nests of polydomous colonies .", "we show that in colonies of bumble bees , bombus impatiens ( 1 ) workers tend to remain at a specific distance from the colony center independent of their age , and thus the spatial pattern of workers on the nest is not random ; ( 2 ) smaller individuals maintain smaller spatial zones and tend to be closer to the center ; and ( 3 ) individuals who are more likely to perform brood care tend to remain in the center of the nest , whereas foragers are more often found on the periphery of the nest when not foraging ( jandt & dornhaus 2009 ) . as brood is present in all areas of the nest , this leads to larvae in the center of the nest being fed more frequently than those in the periphery . as a consequence of this , ( 4 ) larvae in the periphery of the nest remain smaller and form smaller workers . this is a mechanism creating worker polymorphism ( couvillon & dornhaus 2009 ) . what is the mechanism creating spatial preferences in workers ? ongoing studies will address this .", "the problem of how to compromise between speed and accuracy in decision - making faces organisms at many levels of biological complexity . striking parallels are evident between decision making in primate brains an collective decision - making in social insect colonies : in both systems separate populations accumulate evidence for alternative choices , when one population reaches a threshold a decision is made , and this threshold may be varied to compromise between the speed and accuracy of decision - making . we analyze the properties of both of these systems , and show in which ways the ant collective decision making system may be statistically optimal ( marshall et al . 2009 ) .", "we used data from published literature to characterize commonalities and differences in host choice between the four major types of ant social parasitism : xenobiosis , temporary parasitism , dulosis , and inquilinism . our analysis shows that xenobiotic parasites tend to have single or multiple host species that are very distantly related and have medium to large host colonies . temporary parasites tend to have multiple host species that are very closely related and have medium host colonies . dulotic parasites tend to have multiple host species that are slightly less related and have host colonies of any size . lastly , inquiline parasites tend to have single host species that are very closely related and have medium host colonies . in addition , a parasite tends to be very closely related to its host when the parasite has a single host species or large host colony sizes ( huang & dornhaus 2008 ) .", "click on the following parts to open different image pages from this road trip . from any image page , click the red home tab to get back to this home page", "seinet plants of the superstitions by k . c . rice wayne ' s word trivia note about the turtle ant", "a lthough i did not find the turtle ant on this road trip , i did make another interesting ant discovery in the superstitions . i found a minute army ant of the genus neivamyrmex under a rock . based on its minute size and several other distinguishing characteristics , i think it may be the seldom observed species n . nyensis . according to neivamyrmex authority gordon snelling ( personal communication , 26 jan . 2017 ) , it is n . leonardi ! a nearby rock had an equally small species of forelius , but army ants are easy to distinguish because they do not have eyes . since they are blind , they must trail closely behind each other , like following the car in front of you in dense fresno ground fog .", "army ant worker ( neivamyrmex ) from under a rock on superstition mountain . based on the description and key to neivamyrmex in urltoken ( and small size ) , it appears to be n . nyensis , a seldom observed species . according to neivamyrmex authority gordon snelling ( personal communication , 26 jan . 2017 ) , it is n . leonardi !"]}

e ) are derived from a wide review aimed at detecting risk factors across the broad range of organisms and the diverse life histories they exhibit . the quantitative values presented in the various criteria associated with threatened categories were developed through wide consultation , and they are set at what are generally judged to be appropriate levels , even if no formal justification for these values exists . the levels for different criteria within categories were set independently but against a common standard . broad consistency between them was sought .", "the criteria for the threatened categories are to be applied to a taxon whatever the level of conservation action affecting it . it is important to emphasise here that a taxon may require conservation action even if it is not listed as threatened . conservation actions which may benefit the taxon are included as part of the documentation requirements ( see annex 3 ) .", "the criteria are clearly quantitative in nature . however , the absence of high - quality data should not deter attempts at applying the criteria , as methods involving estimation , inference and projection are emphasised as being acceptable throughout . inference and projection may be based on extrapolation of current or potential threats into the future ( including their rate of change ) , or of factors related to population abundance or distribution ( including dependence on other taxa ) , so long as these can reasonably be supported . suspected or inferred patterns in the recent past , present or near future can be based on any of a series of related factors , and these factors should be specified as part of the documentation .", "taxa at risk from threats posed by future events of low probability but with severe consequences ( catastrophes ) should be identified by the criteria ( e . g . small distributions , few locations ) . some threats need to be identified particularly early , and appropriate actions taken , because their effects are irreversible or nearly so ( e . g . , pathogens , invasive organisms , hybridization ) .", "the data used to evaluate taxa against the criteria are often estimated with considerable uncertainty . such uncertainty can arise from any one or all of the following three factors : natural variation , vagueness in the terms and definitions used , and measurement error . the way in which this uncertainty is handled can have a strong influence on the results of an evaluation . details of methods recommended for handling uncertainty are included in annex 1 , and assessors are encouraged to read and follow these principles .", "in general , when uncertainty leads to wide variation in the results of assessments , the range of possible outcomes should be specified . a single category must be chosen and the basis for the decision should be documented ; it should be both precautionary and credible .", "when data are very uncertain , the category of ' data deficient ' may be assigned . however , in this case the assessor must provide documentation showing that this category has been assigned because data are inadequate to determine a threat category . it is important to recognize that taxa that are poorly known can often be assigned a threat category on the basis of background information concerning the deterioration of their habitat and / or other causal factors ; therefore the liberal use of ' data deficient ' is discouraged .", "listing in the categories of not evaluated and data deficient indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made , though for different reasons . until such time as an assessment is made , taxa listed in these categories should not be treated as if they were non - threatened . it may be appropriate ( especially for data deficient forms ) to give them the same degree of attention as threatened taxa , at least until their status can be assessed .", "all assessments should be documented . threatened classifications should state the criteria and subcriteria that were met . no assessment can be accepted for the iucn red list as valid unless at least one criterion is given . if more than one criterion or subcriterion is met , then each should be listed . if a re - evaluation indicates that the documented criterion is no longer met , this should not result in automatic reassignment to a lower category of threat ( downlisting ) . instead , the taxon should be re - evaluated against all the criteria to clarify its status . the factors responsible for qualifying the taxon against the criteria , especially where inference and projection are used , should be documented ( see annexes 2 and 3 ) . the documentation requirements for other categories are also specified in annex 3 .", "the category of threat is not necessarily sufficient to determine priorities for conservation action . the category of threat simply provides an assessment of the extinction risk under current circumstances , whereas a system for assessing priorities for action will include numerous other factors concerning conservation action such as costs , logistics , chances of success , and other biological characteristics of the subject .", "re -

introduced individuals must have produced viable offspring before they are counted as mature individuals .", "generation length is the average age of parents of the current cohort ( i . e . newborn individuals in the population ) . generation length therefore reflects the turnover rate of breeding individuals in a population . generation length is greater than the age at first breeding and less than the age of the oldest breeding individual , except in taxa that breed only once . where generation length varies under threat , the more natural , i . e . pre - disturbance , generation length should be used .", "a reduction is a decline in the number of mature individuals of at least the amount ( % ) stated under the criterion over the time period ( years ) specified , although the decline need not be continuing . a reduction should not be interpreted as part of a fluctuation unless there is good evidence for this . the downward phase of a fluctuation will not normally count as a reduction .", "a continuing decline is a recent , current or projected future decline ( which may be smooth , irregular or sporadic ) which is liable to continue unless remedial measures are taken . fluctuations will not normally count as continuing declines , but an observed decline should not be considered as a fluctuation unless there is evidence for this .", "extreme fluctuations can be said to occur in a number of taxa when population size or distribution area varies widely , rapidly and frequently , typically with a variation greater than one order of magnitude ( i . e . a tenfold increase or decrease ) .", "the phrase ' severely fragmented ' refers to the situation in which increased extinction risk to the taxon results from the fact that most of its individuals are found in small and relatively isolated subpopulations ( in certain circumstances this may be inferred from habitat information ) . these small subpopulations may go extinct , with a reduced probability of recolonization .", "extent of occurrence is defined as the area contained within the shortest continuous imaginary boundary which can be drawn to encompass all the known , inferred or projected sites of present occurrence of a taxon , excluding cases of vagrancy ( see figure 2 ) . this measure may exclude discontinuities or disjunctions within the overall distributions of taxa ( e . g . large areas of obviously unsuitable habitat ) ( but see ' area of occupancy ' , point 10 below ) . extent of occurrence can often be measured by a minimum convex polygon ( the smallest polygon in which no internal angle exceeds 180 degrees and which contains all the sites of occurrence ) .", "figure 2 . two examples of the distinction between extent of occurrence and area of occupancy .

single threatening event can rapidly affect all individuals of the taxon present . the size of the location depends on the area covered by the threatening event and may include part of one or many

analysis ( pva ) is one such technique . quantitative analyses should make full use of all relevant available data . in a situation in which there is limited information , such data as are available

a category of threat . listing of taxa in this category indicates that more information is required and acknowledges the possibility that future research will show that threatened classification is appropriate . it is important to make positive use of whatever data are available . in many cases great care should be exercised in choosing between dd and a threatened status . if the range of a

evidence concerning its numbers , trend and distribution . in cases where there are evident threats to a taxon through , for example , deterioration of its only known habitat , a threatened listing may be justified , even though there may be little direct information on the biological status of the taxon itself . in all these instances there are uncertainties associated with the available information and how it was obtained . these uncertainties may be categorized as natural variability , semantic uncertainty and measurement error ( ak\u00e7akaya et al . 2000 ) . this section provides guidance on how to recognize and deal with these uncertainties when using the criteria . more information is available in the guidelines for using the iucn red list criteria .", "natural variability results from the fact that species ' life histories and the environments in which they live change over time and space . the effect of this variation on the criteria is limited , because each parameter refers to a specific time or spatial scale . semantic uncertainty arises from vagueness in the definition of terms or lack of consistency in different assessors ' usage of them . despite attempts to make the definitions of the terms used in the criteria exact , in some cases this is not possible without the loss of generality . measurement error is often the largest source of uncertainty ; it arises from the lack of precise information about the parameters used in the criteria . this may be due to inaccuracies in estimating the values or a lack of knowledge . measurement error may be reduced or eliminated by acquiring additional data . for further details , see ak\u00e7akaya et al . ( 2000 ) and burgman et al . ( 1999 ) .", "one of the simplest ways to represent uncertainty is to specify a best estimate and a range of plausible values . the best estimate itself might be a range , but in any case the best estimate should always be included in the range of plausible values . when data are very uncertain , the range for the best estimate might be the range of plausible values . there are various methods that can be used to establish the plausible range . it may be based on confidence intervals , the opinion of a single expert , or the consensus opinion of a group of experts . whichever method is used should be stated and justified in the documentation .", "when interpreting and using uncertain data , attitudes toward risk and uncertainty may play an important role . attitudes have two components . first , assessors need to consider whether they will include the full range of plausible values in assessments , or whether they will exclude extreme values from consideration ( known as dispute tolerance ) . an assessor with a low dispute tolerance would include all values , thereby increasing the uncertainty , whereas an assessor with a high dispute tolerance would exclude extremes , reducing the uncertainty . second , assessors need to consider whether they have a precautionary or evidentiary attitude to risk ( known as risk tolerance ) . a precautionary attitude will classify a taxon as threatened unless it is certain that it is not threatened , whereas an evidentiary attitude will classify a taxon as threatened only when there is strong evidence to support a threatened classification . assessors should resist an evidentiary attitude and adopt a precautionary but realistic attitude to uncertainty when applying the criteria , for example , by using plausible lower bounds , rather than best estimates , in determining population size , especially if it is fluctuating . all attitudes should be explicitly documented .", "an assessment using a point estimate ( i . e . single numerical value ) will lead to a single red list category . however , when a plausible range for each parameter is used to evaluate the criteria , a range of categories may be obtained , reflecting the uncertainties in the data . a single category , based on a specific attitude to uncertainty , should always be listed along with the criteria met , while the range of plausible categories should be indicated in the documentation ( see annex 3 ) .", "where data are so uncertain that any category is plausible , the category of ' data deficient ' should be assigned . however , it is important to recognize that this category indicates that the data are inadequate to determine the degree of threat faced by a taxon , not necessarily that the taxon is poorly known or indeed not threatened . although data deficient is not a threatened category , it indicates a need to obtain more information on a taxon to determine the appropriate listing ; moreover , it requires documentation with whatever available information there is .", "under section v ( the criteria for critically endangered , endangered and vulnerable ) there is a hierarchical alphanumeric numbering system of criteria and subcriteria . these criteria and subcriteria ( all three levels ) form an integral part of the red list assessment and all those that result in the assignment of a threatened category must be specified after the category . under the criteria a to c and d under vulnerable , the first level of the hierarchy is indicated by the use of numbers ( 1 - 4 ) and if more than one is met , they are separated by means of the ' + ' symbol . the second level is indicated by the use of the lower - case alphabet characters ( a - e ) . these are listed without any punctuation . a third level of the hierarchy under criteria b and c involves the use of lower case roman numerals ( i - v ) . these are placed in parentheses ( with no space between the preceding alphabet character and start of the parenthesis ) and separated by the use of commas if more than one is listed . where more than one criterion is met , they should be separated by semicolons . the following are examples of such usage :", "all assessments published on the iucn red list are freely available for public use . to ensure assessments are fully justified and to allow red list assessment data to be analysed , thus making the iucn red list a powerful tool for conservation and policy decisions , a set of supporting information is required to accompany every assessment submitted for publication on the iucn red list of threatened species \u2122 :", "required supporting information under specific conditions ( e . g . taxa assessed under specific red list categories or criteria , plant assessments , reassessed taxa , etc . ) .", "tools available for preparing and submitting assessments for the iucn red list , including the iucn species information service ( sis ) and ramas\u00ae red list ( ak\u00e7akaya and ferson 2001 ) .", "note that the documentation standards and consistency checks for iucn red list assessments and species accounts will be updated on a regular basis .", "click here for a summary of the five criteria ( a - e ) used to evaluate if a taxon belongs in an iucn red list threatened category ( critically endangered , endangered or vulnerable ) .", "ak\u00e7akaya , h . r . and ferson , s . 2001 . ramas \u00ae red list : threatened species classifications under uncertainty . version 2 . 0 . applied biomathematics , new york .", "ak\u00e7akaya , h . r . , ferson , s . , burgman , m . a . , keith , d . a . , mace , g . m . and todd , c . a . 2000 . making consistent iucn classifications under uncertainty . conservation biology 14 : 1001 - 1013 .", "baillie , j . and groombridge , b .

flesh , it\u2019s liable to try that tactic again .", "move away trying to escape is the most logical solution . triggerfish is mostly aggressive during breeding season ( april to may ) , but they are known to attack divers basically at any time of the year . similar to other animals , they attack when their territory is invaded by intruders including other unfriendly fish and divers . if you unintentionally come too close to their nest , triggerfish will repeatedly chase you to send you away . an important thing to know is that triggerfish makes its territory in cone - shaped area with the tip of the cone at the bottom . if you bump into a titan triggerfish , swim away in horizontal direction and toward the bottom . many divers try to escape by ascending . that is a mistake and the fish will most probably keep on chasing them . ignore them", "the nest of the titan triggerfish is usually in a flat sandy area amongst the corals , an area that it will defend with a passion . mating season is a particularly aggressive time during which the trigger fish becomes even more territorial than usual . the teeth , designed for crunching through hard shells and coral , can inflict serious wounds on any would - be intruders .", "the titan triggerfish ( scientific name - balistoides viridescens ) is the largest of the triggerfish family , ranging from approximately 15 - 30 inches . their bodies have patterns of green , yellow , purple and gray , with black fin tips . they are indeed very photogenic . titans feed on hard coral , crustaceans and invertebrates , using a set of specialized teeth that are clearly designed for these food sources . the titans have independently rotating eye sockets , but apparently have poor vision , possibly adding to their territorial nature .", "very interesting , and well written . cool illustration of the diver\u2019s reaction after realizing that he had disturbed the nest of the triggerfish ! ! !", "while not always aggressive and on the attack , these highly territorial fish are no joke and are to be taken seriously . so when we received an email from underwater photographer david henshaw with images from a recent trigger attack in dumaguette , philippines , we decided that it was important to make sure that all of our readers understood more about the titan triggerfish , and their behavior .", "why the aggressive behaviour , one might wonder ? hard to say . while some triggerfish are merely reacting to what they perceive as threats to their nesting grounds - definitely a lesson for divers to respect the habitat of these fish - others seem to do so for the fun of it . this much is clear - titan triggerfish are extremely territorial by nature . the male stands guard over its nest and will charge at any divers or fish that cross into its territory ( the zone in a full circle directly above its nest .", "triggerfish are attractive animals and some species have become too popular for their own good . they are sought for the aquarium trade , which has prompted fishermen to gather even threatened species from the wild . researchers are working to raise triggerfish in captivity so that wild populations might more likely be left alone .", "titan triggerfish feed on shellfish , urchins , crustaceans and coral . they are the workers of the reef , often being busy turning over rocks , stirring up the sand and biting off pieces of branching coral . this is why one often sees other smaller fish species around it who feed from the left overs . they have also been observed being agressive to other fish who enter their territory .", "titan trigger and green moray eel 5 / 10 / 18 hi all great site . very informative < hi george > i just built a 450 gallon acrylic tank in my basement a month ago . my basement entrance has always kept me from anything larger then a 180 gallon but building it myself has fixed this issue . < great > current occupants are a green moray eel and a titan trigger . < one of the most aggressive trigger species and it gets too large ! > all the filter media sand and live rock was transferred from my 180 gallon into this new aquarium , the eel is new but the titan has been with me for about a year in the 180 i < caps > know the tank is to small for them once they get bigger , i am beginning the plans for a approximately 1000 gallon soon . the titan is about 9 inches and the green moray is 3 feet long . < keep an eye on the trigger as it is very mean with most tankmates > i believe i have a year or so before the 1000 is necessary . contemplating whether to go acrylic or plywood this time . my question is will the titan trigger get it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s adult coloration in a home aquarium ? < it will if good nutritional and environmental conditions are provided > thanks george < your welcome wilberth gamboa > re : titan trigger and green moray eel 5 / 10 / 18 thank you very much < welcome . wilberth gamboa >", "an orange -

dried seaweed sheets , frozen or steamed spinach leaf , and freeze - dried krill soaked in selcon , or a comparable amino - acid . it is important to feed triggerfish several times a day , as they will rapidly lose weight if fed sparingly . although many aquarists like to hand - feed their triggerfish , you should be aware that triggerfish , especially larger specimens , can inflict painful injuries with their strong jaws and teeth . when first introduced to the aquarium some triggerfish species can be quite shy and may hide whenever you approach their tank . but it will not take long before they become bold aquarium inhabitants .", "triggerfish are infamous for their nasty attitude and this behavior is especially evident around nests , where intruders , from other fish to human divers , are likely to be charged or bitten .", "but when the trigger appeared i obeyed jesse and ducked . the triggerfish fluttered awkwardly in a vertical position , facing downward , pecking at the sand even as its body tugged surface -

tipped \" or \" moustached triggerfish \" due to their appearance - they have dark markings above the mouth which look like a moustache - and black edgings on their fins .", "triggerfish are simply too goofy to be intimidating . in identification guides , the world\u2019s forty species of triggerfish fall into the ignominious category \u201coddly - shaped swimmers , \u201d which has to be a little embarrassing if you\u2019re a fish . triggers are endowed with huge bulging heads , independently rotating eyes that protrude like marbles , and tiny undulating fins that appear far too small to propel their decidedly un - aerodynamic bodies . to their credit , triggerfish also have a cool eponymous adaptation : to protect against predators they can raise two dorsal spines , which when locked into place resemble a trigger . the spines are usually engaged at night . they still look weird during the day .", "ordinarily you will encounter a solitary titan . like most reef fish , they are active during the day and will tuck themselves into the reef to sleep at night . understanding their nesting behavior and territorial nature is important for minimizing problematic encounters . while it is commonly cited that titans only attack while protecting their nests , this may not be true , as many incidents indicate aggression against territorial intruders even during non nesting seasons . titans nest in the sand adjacent to or within the corals . they will protect these nests with a rigor that is rarely seen from other species . the \" danger zone \" is a cone shaped area directly above the nest , all the way to the surface . so if you invade a titan ' s nesting zone , which more often than not you will do unintentionally , and find yourself with an aggressive male chomping at your fins and ramming you , ascending will not stop the titan from defending its turf . you must swim horizontally away from this zone . try to keep your eyes on the titan at all times , which is easier said than done , as these fish dart about in spurts of intense speed . keep your camera or fins between you and the fish if at all possible . better to have a hole or in fins than your body ! hardcore photographers would say to make sure you get the shot while evading attack , but we will be responsible and recommend focusing on not being harmed .", "triggerfish quickly learn to solve simple problems . for example , it does not take long for most species to learn to recognize where the food comes from , and established specimens will \u201cbeg\u201d at the water ' s surface every time their owner is in view . they will also spit water out of the aquarium . triggerfish in the wild often engage in a behavior called hydraulic jetting . this action gets its name from a triggerfish\u2019s directing a jet of water out of its mouth into the sand to uncover buried prey . triggerfish also use hydraulic jetting to flip over protected prey items like spiny sea urchins . in the aquarium they learn to associate the surface of the water , not the tank bottom , with food . so instead of spitting water at the substrate they blow it at the water ' s surface . although interesting , this behavior can cause severe problems if your top is not totally covered and you have electrical outlets near the tank .", "hey jk , thanks a lot for the kind words . i\u2019m proud to take credit for the interesting content of the post , but the pictures are another story : i actually lifted them from various sites around the internet ( with due accreditation ) . i\u2019ve tried to photograph triggers before , too , but it\u2019s hard to get a titan trigger to hold still for you !", "we hit the water that first day with some trigger - related anxiety . jesse had warned us that an especially large titan trigger made her home nearby , and that if we saw her we were to cower behind him like the pansies we were . screw that , i thought : i\u2019m provoking an attack . the resultant scar would be a cool synecdoche for a great story .", "triggerfish are laterally compressed , have relatively small mouths equipped with chisel - like teeth , heavily muscled jaws , and eyes that are positioned far back on the head . the powerful jaws and teeth are used to crush hard - shelled prey items , while having the eyes far from the mouth ensures that these vulnerable organs will not be damaged by sharp - spined prey items like sea urchins . triggerfish swim by sculling with the soft anal and dorsal fins ( this is known as the balistiform swimming mode ) , but if a sudden burst of speed is required they will use rapid sweeps of their tail . triggerfish occur in all tropical oceans , and most species associate with rocky outcroppings or coral reefs . there are several species that lead a pelagic lifestyle , roaming about the open ocean or living among sargassum algae rafts . but most species inhabit relatively shallow coastal waters . some triggerfish are sexually dimorphic and / or sexually dichromatic ; for example , in many species males are larger than females .", "there is one simple rule every diver should know and respect - limit the interactions with the marine life ideally to zero contact . underwater animals and plants have been there for millions of years , while humans have found home on land . as cute as many of them might look , there are several good reasons why we should not touch or harass marine life . direct interaction might be allowed ( or even necessary ) only in case of an official scientific research such as tagging certain fish or during rescue activities . read our previous blog post do not harras the marine life - you may hurt them . some fish are known to attack humans , but they do that based on the defensive survival instincts . when they feel threatened , they become aggressive . among many different fish species in the ocean , titan triggerfish is one of the most fearsome . here are some things you should do if you ever find yourself under the triggerfish attack .", "the halfmoom and bursa triggers , ( sufflamen chrysopterus ) , and ( sufflamen bursa ) respectively can also be kept in a community setting , as can the pinktail triggerfish , ( melichthys vidua ) , the bluechin triggerfish , ( xanthichthys auromarginatus ) , the crosshatch triggerfish , ( xanthichthys mento ) , and the sargassum triggerfish , ( xanthichthys ringens ) . the latter 4 species , as well as odonus niger have the distinction of being generally safe in reef settings , with the caveat that small shrimp should be added before the triggerfish , and the triggers themselves should generally be added last , and be the smallest fish in the tank . in fact , in all cases your trigger should be the last and smallest fish added to the community . the reason for this is that even relatively peaceable species like the huma huma , are only peaceable in relative terms ! they are still somewhat aggressive fish , and can do a fair amount of damage in an altercation . for this reason they generally should not only be added last , but also be the smallest fish in the tank . this mitigates the damage that these fish are capable of , and allows the trigger to become conditioned to the presence of his / her tank mates . simply following these two rules generally assures that the trigger does not establish itself as the dominant fish in the community , and allows the other inhabitants to adapt to the presence of the triggerfish . for their part , triggers are not generally susceptible to stress from larger , bullying tank mates , and they are quite well armored against anything short of a depth charge attack !", "some of our diving guests in padangbai suggest that it is best to pretend you don\u2019t care about the fish . of course this might not work when you actually are under the attack , but might be worth trying to avoid it in the first place . if you spot a titan triggerfish on alert , just pretend you don\u2019t care and turn your back on them . use your equipment as defense even under attack , divers should not defend by being offensive or aggressive . when scuba diving , divers enter the territory of marine animals so it is only natural that some fish see divers as a threat . the fish attack in order to defend their territories . it is not fair to attack them back . instead of fighting back using a pointer or other edged weapon , try to block the attack by using your camera , dive slate or fins . triggerfish is both powerful and intelligent , they can learn from previous experience . recognize the fish as a preventive measure , learn to recognize triggerfish before you go diving . some prominent characteristics include purple lower jaw , green or yellow fins , and eye socket that rotates independently . triggerfish are solitary creatures but smaller fish often tag along to feed on the leftovers . this fish is active during the day and usually hiding in the reef at night . if you spot them , keep a safe distance and avoid diving toward their direction to minimize interaction . want to learn more about other curious fish ? read our blog post about what you didn\u2019t know about nemo or how to behave around mola mola .", "there is so many of them in the maldives , not only the titan ones but incredible amount of the black ones that swim in a group -

protrusible upper jaw , with hard , specialised teeth that in most species are designed for cracking the shells of various hard - shelled invertebrates .", "speaking of things that should be kept out of the main tank , add your hands and arms to the list ! as much as possible anyway , you should avoid inserting your hands into a tank containing a large triggerfish \u2013 they can draw blood , and larger specimens ( though unlikely to be found in your home tank ) can remove fingers . the jaws of these fish are highly effective at what they are designed for , which is dismantling all manner of hardened items found in their environment . always be aware of where your triggerfish is when doing maintenance of your tank , even smaller specimens can deliver a painful and shocking bite .", "so what about invertebrates ? is it really possible to keep triggers with animals they may perceive as prey ? the answer is yes and no . it is very important that you choose your triggerfish species and invertebrate tankmates very carefully . many triggerfish have highly varied diets that include many different types of invertebrates , as well as plant material and small fish . take a look at a dietary study on the commonly kept rectangular triggerfish ( rhinecanthus rectangulus ) . this study lists the following in r . rectangulus stomachs ( in order of importance in the diet ) : amphipods , tunicates , filamentous algae , crabs , polychaete worms , shrimps , coralline algae , snails , sea urchins , isopods , bryozoans , tiny clams , and crab larvae ! there are a lot of animals in that list that many reef aquarists would prefer to have flourish in their tanks . but note that there were no corals listed . that does not mean that all triggers are not a threat to corals . triggerfish are very opportunistic , and some larger species have been known to bite off coral branches to get at crabs or echinoderms that are hiding within a coral colony . those species would indeed be unwelcome in your small - polyped stony coral tank . there are also food habit studies that have listed the tips of stony corals in trigger stomachs .", "\u201cthe triggerfish , she has a nest , \u201d jesse explained . on a whiteboard he drew a pile of rocks on the seafloor meant to represent the nest . \u201cshe stays near her nest all the time . and she has a territory around her nest , \u201d he went on , drawing as he spoke , \u201cshaped like this . \u201d", "no , its not a myth . i\u2019ve been attacked by a titan trigger fish a few weeks ago in indonesia . first he went to my divemaster and then after me . it was not like attacking once and go , no , he tried to byte me at least 3 times . they\u00b4re nesting now i suppose , since a girl has been chased as well by one in the same morning . it happened at 20meters deep + or \u2013 . now i laugh at myself but at the moment i was like oh nooooo ahahah . greetings from lisbon , portugal", "then you\u2019re in for an extremely rewarding and entertaining experience , and only the size tank you can invest in limits your choice of triggerfish . keeping a single fish alone in a species tank is the only viable option for certain species , including b . undulatus , and v . vetula \u2013 the undulated and queen triggers respectively . in fact , of the dream tanks that this author aspires to keep on day is a 120 gallon tank with a single , adult undulates trigger . for the b . vetula , the 2\u2019 queen triggerfish , it will have to be a tank in the 500 gallon range . now the aquarist is only faced with the challenge of dealing with the highly destructive capabilities of these fishes , and nothing is safe ! this means filters , powerheads , power cords and heaters ! for this reason , these items are best kept in a sump , and out of the main tank . they are also adept , ( and seemingly quite fond of ) , overturning and moving rocks and other pieces of d\u00e9cor . this tendency should be taken into account when aquascaping a tank that will eventually house and adult triggerfish .", "from an evolutionary standpoint , triggerfish are some of the most advanced fish in the sea . they are heavily armored , intelligent hunter - killers of the reef , and have a set of jaws that can annihilate any hard - shelled invertebrate you care to name they can also destroy just about anything else you care to name , both alive and otherwise , but we\u2019ll get to that shortly .", "for those of you who fall into that category , it is possible to keep some of the triggers that have a more varied diet in a reef tank with certain invertebrates . for example , i once saw a clown triggerfish ( balistoides conspicillum ) in a reef tank ! the owners said they had the trigger in the tank for over a year and that it had not caused any problems . the cnidarian community consisted mainly of soft coral \u201ctrees\u201d ( e . g . , sinularia , litophyton , lemnalia ) . many of those soft corals have toxins that make them unpalatable to the general predator . the tank contained no crustaceans , as the trigger would most likely make short work of them , but there were small demoiselles ( chrysiptera spp . ) that would dart into tight hiding places when the triggerfish got too close !", "hi there . i enjoyed this thread . i was in sodwana bay earlier this year with my girlfriend , honing our underwater photography skills in this beautiful part of the planet . mid way through one of our dives , while skirting over the reef at a depth of around 50 feet , i felt this hard tug at my fin . at first i thought i had carelessly snagged my fin on the reef and was angry at myself . the tugging was intermittent and rapid in nature \u2013 my first clue that this was a creature . as i turned to see what was up , i noticed this adult male titan triggerfish going ballistic at my one fin \u2013 he was really pissed off . i\u2019m telling you , 2ft + of raging fury was pretty terrifying . i kicked out \u2013 half in panic and half in frustration\u2026 . caught him square in the head too . it did nothing though and in an instant he was back at it . it wasn\u2019t until i tried to swim away really quickly that he finally let up , turned\u2026 . . and attacked my girlfriend who was behind me , witnessing the event . she bolted too \u2013 sideways and had to swim a big loop to get back to our group . i realized after reading your information , that i had in fact turned on my back to face the creature and through it all i snapped away furiously with my camera . most pics were pretty blurred since my shutter speed was set for macro photography at the time , but a few images turned out ok . my girlfriend and i travel the globe to dive with sharks \u2013 that\u2019s our passion . this was the most frightened we\u2019ve ever been in the water . i\u2019ll take sharks any day over an angry titan !", "the triggerfish that are better suited to the reef aquarium have some special qualities that make them more \u201cinvert - friendly . \u201d first of all , most of the species that are good for reef aquariums feed primarily on zooplankton or floating algae . as a result , they are \u201cdesigned\u201d a little differently from their less selective cousins . they have slightly smaller mouths ( not well suited for destroying aquarium equipment , including heater tubes ! ) that are a bit higher up on the head . as far as their behavior is concerned , they tend to spend more time in the water column hunting their lilliputian foods . some of them ( e . g . , the crosshatch triggerfish , xanthichthys mento ) form groups because they are more vulnerable when they are farther from the reef . they choose to feed together because there is safety in numbers .", "triggerfish can be quite aggressive in koh tao . here is a short compilation of some of the attacks we ' ve encountered whilst diving here ! no divers and no fish were injured in the making of this video : ) to license this video footage please email charlie . christie . mutch @ urltoken 1 video file -

biting is a relatively rare event , it is a good idea to protect that piece of equipment by placing it in a sump . if your aquarium is \u201csumpless\u201d you can build a barrier around your heater using egg crate material or a piece of plastic that has had numerous holes drilled in it ( e . g . , material commonly sold for tank dividers ) . the best option , though , is to obtain a titanium heater , which is totally resistant to a triggerfish\u2019s jaws . in addition to being trigger - proof , titanium heaters normally function better than standard glass heaters , and using an external thermostat reduces the risk of the heater\u2019s getting stuck in the on position . frequently check any airline tubing in the aquarium to see whether it needs to be replaced .", "the news couldn\u2019t be better in this department \u2013 feeding a triggerfish is the easiest thing you can imagine . most species feed on hard shelled invertebrates in the wild , so they spend their day browsing the reef for crabs , shrimp , snails , etc . in captivity , they will accept a wide range of fresh and prepared fish foods , only leaving the aquarist the task of making sure that a variety of food items are offered , and that vitamin supplements are administered now and then to insure proper nutrition . aside from a variety of appropriate foods that can be purchased in frozen form at most better fish stores , the aquarist can brows the seafood counter at his or her local grocer , and find many things that will have a triggerfish eating out of the keepers hands in no time flat . a few of these items are fresh squid , octopus , scallops , fish , shrimp and crab . these foods can be cut into bite sized morsels and offered to the trigger 2 or 3 times a day . whole crayfish can even be offered , shell and all , and this will allow you to witness the business end of a triggerfish doing what it was meant to do\u2026demolish and consume ! even the few available species that are planktivores in the wild readily accept and thrive on all the options mentioned above with the exception of large , whole invertebrates ."]}

when i heard this , i was so sad . i understand the need for pesticides , but if this species was totally wiped out , i think i may have rather gone with the lack of pesticides . i suppose it depends on the survival of humanity , but we are not at a point where this seems to be a critical concern . so it is something worth thinking about , or possibly limiting .", "saw my first luna moth on thursday night , june 14 , 2018 . the beautiful moth was on the mud room back door and flew into the garage when we opened the door . we left the garage door open for quite a while and then closed it . our son took a picture of it the next day hanging off the light fixture . we live in mid - coast maine .", "one of the most beautiful natural sights i ever witnessed as a young boy occurred one may morning when i chased an errant baseball into a mature hickory stand in new jersey . sunlight streamed through small openings in the leafy canopy onto lush ground foliage on the forest floor . a fully expanded , freshly emerged luna hung about one foot from the ground on the underside of a skunk cabbage stem .", "broadleaf host plants belonging to a large number of genera have been reported as hosts for luna moths ( godfrey et al . 1987 , tietz 1972 ) . however , some of the reported host plants may not be suitable for all populations of lunas . lindroth et al . ( 1989 ) studied first instar survival , duration of larval stage , and pupal weights of caterpillars fed on eleven different plant species and found that survival was poor on some plant species that were reported in the literature as hosts . it appears that different geographical populations of luna moths are adapted to different host plants ( lindroth et al . 1989 , tuskes et al . 1996 ) . lindroth et al . ( 1989 ) suggested that biochemical detoxification of host defensive chemicals by caterpillar enzymes may be a factor in this host plant specialization .", "on 8 / 31 / 17 my daughter found a luna moth worm . so we took it home and put it in a big open glass bowl . i have documented it with photos . what an amazing sight so far . found out with the help of google , that it didn\u2019t like apple trees but loves diamond willow . we placed the willow branches in the bowl and it immediately started its cocoon . on 9 / 1 / 17 at 6 : 00am it started its silk and finished on 9 / 2 / 17 at 3 : 30pm . been waiting all winter for it to hatch . i thought maybe it had died but now know it can take until july for it to become a moth . wish i could share the photos ! i will update when it turns to a beautiful luna moth : ) hope you all are enjoying nature\u2019s beauty !", "according to a 1989 study by richard lindroth , luna caterpillars\u2019 ability to eat those hickory leaves ( as well as the leaves of many other preferred host plant species , such as butternut and walnut ) depends on the lunas\u2019 enzyme production . hickory , butternut , and walnut trees all produce a defensive chemical called juglone . juglone can repel other plants from growing in the vicinity of these trees , and inhibit insects from dining on them .", "i once sent a first time customer five luna cocoons . upon receipt she \" freaked out \" and in a bit of a rage phoned me to complain that my cocoons were full of wasps and bees . she could hear them buzzing around in the cocoons . i explained that the sound was the sound of the pupae wiggling against the sides of their cocoons . i am not sure that she believed me until the beautiful moths emerged in the spring .", "a beautiful luna moth is clinging to door jamb outside on my deck this morning , may 12 in suwanee , ga . i ' ve never seen one before . we have a sweet gum tree that overhangs the deck , and while sweeping those annoying spiky balls off the deck every day is a pain , ( i was even thinking of cutting the tree down . . . oh no ! ! ) now i know that the tree attracts this gorgeous critter ! !", "hi , i stumbled upon this amazing caterpillar trying to take a photo of another caterpillar , but since i am so light footed , observant and careful i didn ' t . i thought at first it was some kind of weird seed pod until i saw it eating . the caterpillar i spotted looks very close to yours , but my caterpillars seem a little larger . i hope i ' m accurate on the luna moth if not it ' s something almost identical .", "luna caterpillars are said to be in their first instar stage when they hatch from the eggs . each time they shed their skins , they move into a new instar , i . e . , second instar , third instar , fourth instar and the fifth instar . the time spent in each instar will vary with local conditions , usually anywhere from 3 - 7 days in each of the first four instars , and 6 - 14 days in the fifth ( final instar ) .", "if you are going to overwinter the cocoons outdoors , make sure they are in a rodent proof cage , and one that will not overheat . it is also recommended that the cage sit on the ground and there not be airflow under the cocoons . windchills could take a toll . in their natural environment luna pupae spend their winters in cocoons that have fallen from the trees during leaf drop , or the larvae have crawled or dropped from the tree and spin cocoons among leaf litter .", "observation of the spinning process can be interesting . the caterpillars work tirelessly to pull some leaves together , anchoring them with a continuous strand of silk . the cocoon is often complete within a few hours . generally ( not always ) luna caterpillars that are going to overwinter in their cocoons will take on an amber to burgundy colouration just prior to spinning . they tend to spin a darker , coarser , thicker silk cocoon than the larvae ( successive brood ) which are not going to overwinter .", "the map below showcases ( in red ) the states and territories of north america where the luna moth may be found ( but is not limited to ) . this sort of data can be useful in seeing concentrations of a particular species over the continent as well as revealing possible migratory patterns over a species ' given lifespan . some species are naturally confined by environment , weather , mating habits , food resources and the like while others see widespread expansion across most , or all , of north america .", "successive brood larvae tend to spin lighter beige cocoons with finer silk as compared to the overwintering brood . in either case , caterpillars will shed their skins one more time inside the cocoon , usually 2 - 5 days after spinning , depending upon temperature , and enter the pupal stage . if you hold a five day old cocoon up to a light , you can usually see the outline of the pupa and the discarded skin through the walls of the cocoon . luna pupae tend to be quite active .", "when caterpillars are full - grown , they may begin to wander . the cocoon is spun among the leaves of the deciduous host plants but is not anchored to a twig as is the case with many polyphemus moth cocoons . therefore , they fall to the ground in autumn ( holland 1968 ) as the leaves fall and are not commonly seen . development from hatching to pupation takes a month or longer depending on temperature . luna moth caterpillars are never sufficiently common to cause significant damage to their host trees .", "probably the most recognized moth in north america , the luna moth is easily recognized by the green color , large wing span of about 3 - 4 inches , long tails , and eyespot on each wing . no other species in north america remotely resembles a luna moth . the earliest spring adults are much brighter green than later adults . females are lighter than males . in southern populations there is often a row of dark spots or a thin dark line on the forewing , as on the male illustrated here . the caterpillars are green with a brown head , but may become brown a day or so before they spin their cocoon . the body has a variable amount of sparse hairs ( but no spines ) . markings include a lengthwise yellowish line on each side and yellow between most of the segments , but no diagonal lateral ( side ) streaks . caterpillars of the polyphemus moth are similar but have conpsicuous diagonal yellowish lines on each abdominal segment and they are usually found on oaks , maples , and willows .", "the larva of the luna moth are bright green ( see video below ) and have narrow yellow lines on them . there is a band of yellowish spiracles , and some reddish colored tubercles on each side . some have observed raised pink spots , and this can vary from region to region . the head of the caterpillar is a brownish color . when the time comes for it to spin its cocoon it will do so in areas where there is a lot of leaves on the ground , among the leaves . its cocoon is thin and silken .", "the soft moth ( female to left , note narrow antennae ) can escape through a hole roughly 3 / 8 inch in diameter . once out of the cocoon , the moth must climb to hang its wings for inflation . i place my luna cocoons in a 11 \" x11 \" x 2 ' emerging cage made out of folded hardware cloth with a 1 / 2 inch mesh . the newly emerged , soft , pliant moths climb up the wire and hang from either the top or upper reaches of the sides . photo courtesy of john h . campbell", "luna caterpillars have incredibly variable diets overall , but very specific local preferences . in lindroth\u2019s study , he attempted to raise lunas on 11 different recorded host plants , and only experienced success with four of these . why didn\u2019t all of the caterpillars thrive ? lindroth hypothesized that local populations of lunas are specifically adapted to certain host plant species , possibly based on the types of enzymes their bodies produce to help them consume their food . since his lunas all came from one regional population , they might not have been equipped with the adaptations necessary to eat plants that lunas in other areas thrive on .", "here on prince edward island where i rear most of my luna larvae outdoors on live trees covered with rearing sleeves , the larvae require approximately five or six weeks ( 35 - 42 days ) to grow from hatchlings to cocoon spinners . it is rare that we get temperatures above 90 f in summer time . some years it seems it is even rare if we get temperatures into the 80 ' s . most summer days are in the 70 ' s and we usually get cooler , darker , rainy days once or twice a week . night time temps often dip into the 60 ' s .", "my best suggestion is that if you wish to rear larvae and have luna cocoons that overwinter , then you need to rear in such a way ( at such a time ) that larvae pass through their fourth instar with hours of light under 14 hours per day and be on a diminishing photo period cycle . if you ask me questions accompanied with specific information supplied , i can only offer a best guess . other obervations would be appreciated . please provide data : date , location , rearing conditions if you are going to submit observations . please provide same if you are going to ask questions . email :", "there are may ways to rear luna moths . airtight jars / containers is recommended for indoor rearing , at least for the first three instars to prevent desiccation / dehydration of larvae . once the larval bulk increases , the airtight conditions to conserve the moisture in the foliage is probably not quite as critical , but i would recommend putting the cut ends of foodplant stems in water that the caterpillars cannot crawl into if you are going to rear outdoors on cut food in screened cages or if you are going to rear indoors ( after third instar only ) on cut food in an airy container ( screened cage ) .", "daily interaction with your luna caterpillars should include frequent cleanings of the shelter . directly after the caterpillars hatch , line the bottom of their shelter with paper towels to catch droppings . at the end of each day , toss the paper towels out and replace them . this helps prevent the growth of mold . if you choose to handle your caterpillars , be very gentle . wash your hands before and after accessing their shelter to prevent the spread of bacteria . do not pull or tug on the caterpillars . let them come to you and climb off you on their own , as being forceful may damage their appendages .", "nick boyonoski and scott bessin provided technical assistance , dr . martha lutz reared the first generation of luna moths in kentucky , and dr . eric chapman helped find suitable field locations in kentucky . clint patterson , berea college forester , provided us with access to the berea college forest . the experiments conducted in kentucky were supported by the kentucky agricultural experiment station ( national institute of food and agriculture , u . s . department of agriculture , hatch project ky008066 1003549 ) , the experiments in ontario were supported by natural resources canada , and jgm acknowledges support from hatch project ca - r * ent - 5181 - h .", "the series of photos above show the luna caterpillar from 1st instar to cocoon . it takes about 10 days for the egg to hatch into a tiny caterpillar and about 5 - 6 weeks to grow into the full its size of about 2 . 5 inches long and 3 / 4 inch in diameter . the caterpillars are green in all instars except the first and resemble polyphemus . the 5th instar caterpillars are not as voracious as polyphemus and it was a little easier to keep them supplied with leaves . i raised 15 on sweet gum and they did very well as the cocoons were all larger than those of their parents .", "i work with a number of subcontractors in the united states who can ship luna eggs for me at various times , starting as early as march in alabama and as late as september from new jersey . in most cases , the subcontractors have either captured wild female moths at lights or have obtained pairings of their own reared or purchased females with wild males . fresh eggs are shipped at a time appropriate to their rearing in the respective areas of customers . shippers indicate the date of deposit with each shipment . eggs typically take eight days ( 80 - 85 f ) to twelve days ( 68 f ) to incubate , depending on storage temperature .", "many of you will have cocoons that are not going to overwinter . in the spring of march 2008 a shipping partner in southern alabama obtained a luna pairing ( wild males flying ) on march 9 . he reared the larvae outdoors in sleeves and the caterpillars started spinning cocoons on april 27 . i suspect moths from these cocoons will begin hatching the second or third week in may after spending only two to three weeks in cocoons . in contrast , on march 9 on p . e . i . in eastern canada , where i live , we were having a blizzard . there are still no leaves on the trees and there are patches of snow on the ground in shaded ditches as of may 3 .", "i ' m in the suburbs and let a part of my yard 100 % natural . i never spray pesticides ever ! ! ! i have so many amazing moths , butterflies and insects in my yard . so please everyone don ' t spray pesticide . enjoy the wildlife and see the beauty in nature . it ' s much more fascinating for kids as well as adults to experience these rare kind of sightings as the luna moth . i stopped my young kid neighbor passing by and within in an hour he had all his friends looking at the caterpillar and they were amazed and fascinated . letting your yard grow natural while keeping some tidy flower gardens on the outskirts looks beautiful and helps our wildlife . thank you for the great post !"]}

east asian rivers , but humphead glassfish also seem to do perfectly well in the hard , alkaline water of southern england .", "unlike some glassfish in the trade , these are strictly freshwater fish and shouldn\u2019t be kept in a brackish water aquarium .", "what matters more is water quality , particularly oxygen concentration . fish from fastwater habitats invariably do badly in nitrate - rich , oxygen - poor water . keep nitrates low by performing regular water changes , preferably keeping the nitrate concentration below 20 mg / l .", "to ensure the water is well oxygenated , ensure the tank is not overstocked , and install a filter that keeps the water moving vigorously . ideally the filter should provide a turnover rate around eight times the volume of the tank per hour . so for a 200 l / 44 gal aquarium , the filter needs to be rated at 1 , 600 lph .", "water temperature doesn\u2019t appear to be critical for these fish and they do perfectly well at the usual 25c / 77f favoured by most fishkeepers . on the other hand , higher temperatures will reduce the amount of oxygen in the water , so that condition would be something to avoid wherever possible .", "fussy eaters like all glassfish , humpheads are fussy feeders . at least during the initial stages , live and frozen foods will need to be used while settling these wild - caught fish into captive life . earthworms and river shrimps are particularly favoured , though midge and mosquito larvae are also readily enjoyed . small fish will also consume daphnia and brineshrimp .", "once settled in , they generally take frozen foods such as bloodworms without any complaint . at least some well - adjusted specimens take flake , but at the very least this food should be supplemented with additions such as chopped squid and prawn .", "all glassfish are opportunistic predators and the humphead has a deceptively large mouth . smaller fish such as guppies , danios and neons will quite likely be viewed as tasty food ! that same sad fate may befall small shrimps such as cherry and amano .", "social behaviour humphead glassfish may be schooling fish in the wild , but under aquarium conditions they tend to be aggressive towards one another .", "this behaviour can be prevalent among smaller glassfish species too and most likely reflects bullying between males as they jockey for dominance within the group .", "whatever the explanation , humpheads should be kept either in groups of at least eight specimens or smaller groups with just a single male .", "sexing these glassfish isn\u2019t too difficult either , since the males have those larger humps . males also tend to be a bit bigger , but that isn\u2019t apparent until all the fish are fully grown .", "curiously , maximum size of this fish under aquarium conditions appears to be a bit larger than the maximum size reported in scientific literature \u2014 10cm / 4\u201d as opposed to 8cm / 3 . 1\u201d .", "tank mates these fish work quite well in community tanks , with a few reservations . as already mentioned , they are predatory fish , eating any fish or shrimp they can swallow whole , so tank mates should be sufficiently large to minimise the risk . they are also a bit thuggish \u2014 yet another trait they share with other glassfish !", "while this doesn\u2019t mean they are nippy or territorial , it does mean they throw their weight around at feeding time . tank mates should be sufficiently robust to prevent this being an issue . barbs and characins would be fine , but mixing humpheads with discus or african butterflyfish would be a bad idea . otherwise they would make excellent companions for the likes of clown loaches , loricariid catfish , spiny eels , silver dollars and other robust community fish .", "although looking bizarre , humphead glassfish are beautiful and , while pricey , surprisingly hardy and adaptable fish with much to recommend them .", "pfk featured these fish in interesting imports , shortly after they first became available in the hobby .", "this item first appeared in the june 2009 issue of practical fishkeeping magazine . it may not be reproduced without written permission .", "\u00a9 1955 -

offs between the acquisition of costly but accurate information gained firsthand and the use of inexpensive but possibly less reliable social information . american crows ( corvus brachyrhynchos ) use both sources of information to learn the facial features of a dangerous person . we exposed wild crows to a novel \u2018dangerous face\u2019 by wearing a unique mask as we trapped , banded and released 7\u201315 birds at five study sites near seattle , wa , usa . an immediate scolding response to the dangerous mask after trapping by previously captured crows demonstrates individual learning , while an immediate response by crows that were not captured probably represents conditioning to the trapping scene by the mob of birds that assembled during the capture . later recognition of dangerous masks by lone crows that were never captured is consistent with horizontal social learning . independent scolding by young crows , whose parents had conditioned them to scold the dangerous mask , demonstrates vertical social learning . crows that directly experienced trapping later discriminated among dangerous and neutral masks more precisely than did crows that learned through social means . learning enabled scolding to double in frequency and spread at least 1 . 2 km from the place of origin over a 5 year period at one site .", "an animal ' s world includes environmental challenges that select for adaptive traits across generations [ 1 ] , as well as those that change within individual lifetimes and necessitate adaptive learning [ 2 ] . learning from direct trial and error experiences allows for a wide range of species to rapidly adjust their behaviour to changing conditions [ 3 \u2013 5 ] , but errors can be costly [ 6 , 7 ] . species able to observe and imitate others [ 8 ] , even crudely [ 9 ] , can forgo this cost by adjusting to changing environments through social learning and cultural evolution [ 10 , 11 ] .", "in our increasingly human - dominated world , animals frequently face new dangers and opportunities that would profitably be solved through social learning . nowhere may this be more apparent than in our cities , where changing abiotic conditions ; novel anthropogenic foods and other subsidies ; and exotic predators , diseases and competitors are potent , novel and erratic selective forces [ 12 , 13 ] . the behaviour of individual people towards animals is often changing , and recent studies have demonstrated that an ability to discern differences between humans [ 14 , 15 ] may enable successful species to adapt to , and even coevolve with , human behaviour [ 16 ] . because human actions often threaten animals , learning socially about individual people ' s habits would be advantageous .", "learning dangers by observing others is well understood in the laboratory [ 17 ] , but difficult to demonstrate in nature because public information can influence an animal ' s behaviour without the need for imitative social learning [ 18 , 19 ] . society can influence an individual ' s behaviour by stimulating ( contagion ) , exposing or supporting an action that already exists in the animal ' s repertoire . such socially influenced traits are subject to cultural transmission , but at best provide weak evidence for social learning as new behaviours need not be acquired [ 20 , 21 ] . by contrast , social animals often model adaptive traits that enable individuals to learn the object , location or circumstances that enhance fitness . such social learning ( i . e . stimulus enhancement or observational conditioning ; [ 19 ] ) is more rudimentary than imitating complex behaviours or learning about goals from others , but it is common among socially tolerant animals [ 22 , 23 ] .", "the american crow ( corvus brachyrhynchos ) is a successful resident of north american cities [ 24 ] with a typical fission\u2013fusion social structure within which many traditions and vocalizations appear to be socially learned [ 16 , 25 ] . one such tradition is the tendency of some crow groups to habitually follow or scorn particular humans . in experiments that we expand upon here , crows were capable of discriminating among individual people and remembering those who have aided or threatened them in the past [ 26 ] . threatening people are scolded with harsh vocalizations and may be mobbed by groups of scolding crows . individual crows learn from a single experience when they are captured and scold their captors , but in our experiments many more crows appeared knowledgeable than the few with direct , individual experience . crows recruit and tolerate others of their own and different species in mobs that form around dangerous people . this social tolerance during a situation when a typically neutral stimulus ( a person ) is paired with a signal of danger ( scolding ) could allow naive crows to learn about dangerous situations , locations and individual humans . alternatively , many naive crows may simply be stimulated to mob dangerous people because of the contagious nature of a mob [ 27 ] .", "mobbing is a compound social stimulus that includes both visual and auditory signals in response to predators that is found in a variety of taxa including fishes , birds and mammals [ 28 ] . mobbing has multiple functions including predation , deterrence and learning to identify predators [ 29 \u2013 32 ] . here , we are concerned with the latter and seek to distinguish contagious from socially acquired behaviour to understand the relative roles of individual learning and social learning in the acquisition of knowledge about people by crows . we test the hypothesis that observing others mob an object conditions an individual to react to that object and thus subsequently scold it [ 29 ] . our experiments in a field setting advance the relatively poor understanding of social learning pathways in nature [ 22 ] .", "we experimentally investigated the roles of individual and social learning by pairing an aversive experience ( capture , banding and release ) with a novel human face ( a full face mask worn by people trapping and handling the birds ) . after trapping , we investigated the strength of the ecologically relevant , unconditioned response ( fear , scolding or mobbing ) to the conditioned stimulus ( people wearing the mask used during trapping , \u2018dangerous face\u2019 ) and to similar stimuli ( people wearing other masks not used for trapping or no mask , \u2018neutral faces\u2019 ; see the electronic supplementary material , also see marzluff et al . [ 26 ] for details on masks , previous research at sites and discriminatory abilities of subjects ) .", "we trapped and then observed crows respond to masks at five sites . we began research at the university of washington ( uw ) main campus , where we contrasted crow responses over a 5 year period ( and ongoing ) to an extraordinary dangerous mask . to test the generality of our findings at uw , and test discrimination among ordinary faces in a fully balanced design , where each mask was dangerous at one site and neutral at all other sites , we conducted five - month long observations at four additional sites ( see the electronic supplementary material ) .", "while our goals varied among sites , our field procedures were standardized . two trappers each wore the same mask during capture with a net launcher and banding . in total , birds were held for 10\u201330 min by the masked trappers , during which time groups of crows who were not captured circled and gave alarm vocalizations ( the electronic supplementary material ) . after releasing the banded birds , we removed our masks while inside a nearby building . each bird was aged based on plumage and colour of the mouth lining ( [ 33 ] ; electronic supplementary material ) . adults were only marked using leg bands ( including colour bands that did not reinforce coloration known to be associated with status ) to minimize long - term stress on the crows . all trapping was carried out at the start of experiments ; once trapping was completed , no additional individual learning by experiencing or observing trapping was possible .", "to assess the responses of the crow populations at each site to people with masks after capture , we surveyed crows and their responses to a person slowly walking a 2\u20133 . 8 km - long route for 1\u20132 h ( figures 1 and 3 ; electronic supplementary material ) . surveys were carried out by the authors and others who were blind to the experimental objectives and expectations . observations made by blind observers are conservatively biased ( typically ascribing less discriminatory ability to crows because some scold vocalizations were not recognized as such ; [ 26 ] ) . each route included the trapping sites . at each site , the order of trials in which observers wore the dangerous trapping mask and the neutral masks was randomized . during surveys , which were limited to no more than one per day , observers paused briefly to look at each crow encountered and categorized its behaviour . we defined scolding as a harsh , alarm \u2018kaw\u2019 directed repeatedly at the observer accompanied by agitated wing and tail flicking [ 34 ] . mobbing ( or a mob ) is defined as contagious activity where more than one crow jointly scolds . mobbing may be accompanied by diving and following the masked observer . observers did not carry binoculars ( so as not to cue birds ) , but noted the unique band combination of each crow when possible , enabling us to determine if a particular individual was previously captured . although attraction of birds along the route to mobs may increase the chance of repeatedly counting the same birds within an experiment , we have no suggestion that it occurred . our routes were long , many of the crows were territorial and wandered little beyond their centres of activity , and we never observed a banded bird in more than a single mob within a trial .", "responses of lone , unbanded crows ( solid symbols , scolding ; open symbols , silent ) at site b ( urban and dense suburban bellevue , wa ; for other sites see the electronic supplementary material ) . each of the 11 repeated trials in which the dangerous mask was worn is represented as a straight line with segments proportional to the actual route ( lines 1\u201311 under the study route , letters orient lines to route ; dashed lines delineate the major segments ) . the locations of all mobs given in response to the dangerous person ' s presence and the responses of all lone unbanded ( never captured ) crows are plotted in a spatially explicit manner for each trial . scolding crows exposed to a mob ( observed within 100 m of the location where mobbing occurred on a previous trial ; these crows have a plus symbol ) are evidence of peer - to - peer social learning . scolding crows that were not exposed to a mob are evidence of social learning by observing the trapping event ( trial 1 ) , evidence of inherent scolding of a masked person ( trials 2\u201311 ) or the conservative nature of our assessment ( trials 2\u201311 ) .", "ongoing observations at our single long - term research site ( uw ) enabled us to describe the potential effect of social learning by detailing the nature of involvement in scolding by birds that were not trapped . we did this on a temporal basis by comparing the change in the number of birds scolding after trapping with two typical models of population - level cultural learning : linear and exponential rise to maximum [ 35 , 36 ] . network - based approaches [ 37 ] were not possible because many birds were not individually marked . rejection of the linear model would be consistent with lack of social learning . support for the linear model would be consistent with ongoing social learning . support for the exponential rise to maximum model would be consistent with learning by observation of the trapping event , but little or no further learning by observing scolding .", "we quantified the geographical spread in scolding by mapping the locations and average number of scolding birds during the first two weeks immediately after trapping , 1 . 25 years after trapping , and 2 . 7 years post - trapping ( 9 , 31 and 38 cumulative number of times crows were exposed to the dangerous mask prior to each time point , respectively ) . since the first 2 years of data suggested that the response area was increasing , we expanded our search of knowledgeable birds off of the typical route at the 2 . 7 year mark . we surveyed in a circular search area with a radius of 1160 m , positioned around our typical route . we started at the perimeter of the circle and worked our way in towards the centre . we drove until we saw a crow perched within 10 m of the ground , put on the mask , approached the crow on foot to observe its response , then removed the mask once back inside the vehicle . we surveyed this area on a weekly basis from 9 october 2008 until 30 november 2008 ."]}

sea shrimp retreats in a blaze of bioluminescent glory . when confronted by a predator , the bright red critter spews a glowing blue ooze from the base of its antennae into the water .", "the light temporarily stuns the offender , giving the shrimp precious time to back - flip its way to safety . it ' s similar to the time - tested strategy used by squids and octopuses , which squirt clouds of ink into the faces of their enemies .", "the glass squid is a master of luminous disguise . unlike the many species that use bioluminescence as an attention - grabbing beacon , this animal uses light as a cloak to evade prying eyes .", "aside from its opaque eyes and the polka dot - like chromatophores ( pigmented cells that aid in camouflage ) that cover its body , the glass squid is completely transparent . the chromatophores are not an issue , but the opaque color of its eyes can be a dead giveaway . many species hunt for prey by scanning the water column above them , looking for any telltale silhouettes that might signal the presence of their next meal .", "to confound its potential predators , the glass squid makes use of two u - shaped light - emitting photophores located at the base of its eyes : the lights cancel out the shadows cast by the opaque eyes . the effect of this strategy , called counterillumination , is to break up the squid ' s silhouette by mimicking the intensity and color of downwelling light from the surface .", "to survive in the dark recesses of the ocean , it helps to have a sharp pair of eyes . and preferably eyes that can see through others ' visual deceits . on both counts , the short nose green - eye fish swims above the fray .", "like many deep - sea predators , its eyes are turned upward to scan for prey blocking the light that comes from above . but where another fish might have been fooled by a prey using counterillumination , the short - nose green - eye fish uses its sophisticated peepers ( pdf ) to break up any bioluminescent shams .", "the green fluorescent pigment in the lenses of its eyes acts like a filter , absorbing the sea ' s ambient deep blue light . researchers believe this property allows the short - nose green - eye fish to distinguish between the lighter shade of blue given off by bioluminescent creatures and the richer blue of the ocean .", "the tropical mantis shrimp is known for one thing above all else : its amazing eyes . unlike our own primitive eyes , which detect three primary colors , the mantis shrimp ' s can see 12 . they can also perceive different forms of polarized light - - light waves oscillating in a single direction . this ability is primarily thought to help the shrimp nab the transparent animals that it feasts on .", "on the dimly lit seafloor , where the shrimp dig their burrows , their complex eyes have another crucial function : interspecies communication . pigments in the shrimp ' s appendages absorb the ocean ' s ambient blue light and emit it in a yellow - green color , resulting in the characteristic spotty markings . the light ' s wavelength is so specific that only other members of the species can trace it , which allows the mantis shrimp both to flaunt its goods to prospective mates and to threaten encroachers .", "at first blush , the hawaiian bobtail squid looks like just another bioluminescent cephalopod . like many of its relatives , the bobtail squid makes deft use of its light - emitting photophores to hunt , communicate with its peers , and hide from predators lurking below . but it ' s a fraud .", "instead of producing the light itself , the squid relies on a bioluminescent bacterium that dwells within its photophores . in exchange for shelter and a stable source of nutrients , the bacteria provide the squid with the ability to make light .", "the relationship begins immediately at birth . after emerging from its egg , the juvenile bobtail squid acquires the bacteria from the environment , and they start the process of colonizing its developing light organs .", "studies have shown that the squid can even control the intensity of the luminescence produced by the bacteria in order to match that of the downwelling light in the water column .", "when something looks too good to be true , it usually is . take the case of the deep - sea siphonophore , which makes red light to trap its prey . a close relative of the jellyfish , it was recently discovered by a team of monterey bay aquarium research institute ( mbari ) researchers .", "like all siphonophores , this unnamed species is what scientists call a \" superorganism \" : an animal that grows by budding off highly specialized structures , known as zooids . each zooids performs a specific function , such as feeding or reproduction .", "this creature ' s feeding zooids employ unique red \" lures \" at the tips of some tentacles to catch unwitting passers - by . to the fish that fall for the alluring bait , the red fluorescent tip looks just like a fat , juicy crustacean . the dangling blobs themselves are harmless , but nearby tentacles are equipped with a battery of potent stinging cells , that make quick work of the small fish .", "photophores contained within the tips are responsible for producing the red light . mbari scientist steven haddock believes the lures are an adaptation for living at depth , where food is scarce and fish are even scarcer .", "some bioluminescent species get really cranky when you disturb them . tomopteris , a tiny marine worm , erupts into a shower of angry sparks and unloads its eggs into the water before rapidly undulating away . what is unusual about this worm is that the sparks it shoots from its paddle - shaped swimming legs are golden yellow in color and not blue , like practically every other bioluminescent organism .", "other marine worms are thought to release glowing blue particles into the water to make themselves look less tasty to hungry predators . few deep - living species have the ability to detect yellow light , which , because it has a higher wavelength , gets absorbed in the shallow surface waters , so it is unclear why tomopteris uses it . for the moment , researchers are still trying to suss out the chemistry of the yellow luminescence , which may yield some clues about its unique function .", "biostor is built by @ rdmpage , code on github . page images from the biodiversity heritage library .", "thank you for visiting nature . com . you are using a browser version with limited support for css . to obtain the best experience , we recommend you use a more up to date browser ( or turn off compatibility mode in internet explorer ) . in the meantime , to ensure continued support , we are displaying the site without styles and javascript .", "all prices are net prices . vat will be added later in the checkout .", "herring , p . j . in the mollusca vol . ii ( ed . wilbur , k . m . ) 449 -

the failure to run him from june to october using the ground as an excuse gave rise to a suspicion that he wasn\u2019t quite the superstar his connections had described him as being . to me his fee is

sufficient quality offspring ( c . 1 % stakes winners ! ) . his two year olds of 2016 will have been conceived from a 30k covering fee so he might show a small rebound but all aspects of his career to

his pedigree and performance .", "verdict : a big beast of a horse but hard to argue with 10 group 1\u2019s between europe and australia . i didn\u2019t think much of high chaparral as a sire and the australian side of his pedigree will be unfamiliar to many here but did enough as a racehorse to justify his fee at least until his runners hit the track .", "verdict : a quality sprinter on two continents and a very good first crop of two year olds . didn\u2019t have a similar impact with his current two year olds and some of the initial fanfare has faded . also suffers from fertility issues

is a very subjective measure . looking at the published fees for 2013 there were a few fees that took my eye as representing particularly poor value . i wouldn\u2019t have time to list all the overpriced first season sires , so i\u2019m restricting myself to those sires with runners\u2026\u2026", "i could just cut and paste my comments from last year regarding high chaparral - yes he was a great racehorse , yes he has done very well in australia / new zealand but there is no way his european results merit a \u20ac25000 fee . it is extraordinary to think that he has yet to sire a european group 1 winner from his huge number of european conceived progeny . his sales returns have been good for the past two years but sooner rather than later european breeders will wake up to the fact that he is only managing 3 % stakes winners and is due a significant cut in fee . by way of comparison for the same fee you could access dalakhani who has 5 % stakes winners and has sired 5 individual european group 1 winners .", "not as egregiously bad value as his stud mate but nonetheless i think footsteps has been a disappointment and is now overpriced . he has managed only 2 % stakes winners and if you take into account that his stud fee was over 20k for his first three years at stud , his record is not going to improve in the coming years . his median for the past two years has hovered around his stud fee so the commercial market is hardly in love with him . interestingly he is the last and only storm cat line horse now in coolmore ireland but i\u2019m sure if a suitable offer came from overseas , coolmore would be happy to offload him and that particular experiment would come to an end without too many tears being shed by ireland\u2019s breeders . by way of comparison you could use azamour for the same fee and he has 4 % stakes winners .", "i wrote about elusive city last year when he was france\u2019s most expensive stallion at \u20ac15000 . he no longer holds this particular title but he still remains a sire who manages only 2 % stakes winners and he remains considerably overpriced . you could pick 20 stallions who represent better value but two similarly priced mr prospector line stallions that are far better sires ( albeit standing in the uk ) are medicean and zamindar .", "i might be eating my words on this one , given that he produced three very nice two year old colts last year in loch garman , havana gold and trading leather . however i\u2019m not arguing that teofilo isn\u2019t capable of producing high class horses but to me he didn\u2019t do enough last year to justify a hike from \u20ac25000 to \u20ac35000 . this is particularly the case when i felt that his three year olds were somewhat disappointing although admittedly the absence of his first crop star parish hall had a big impact on this . his stud fee owes a lot to the growing belief in galileo as a sire of sires and the fact that he shares the galileo / danehill cross with frankel probably helps along with some strong autumn sales results . people are taking a punt of fashion and on potential and although he is an interesting sire his fee should have stayed at its 2012 level until he truly delivered on that potential . by way of comparison at the exact same fee , his stud mate cape cross has demonstrated his ability to produce the goods and i would

saturday .", "for redoute ' s choice , a stint at stud in the northern hemisphere seems only natural . while he has been the pre - eminent australian - bred stallion of the current century , his background is one which is as synonymous with newmarket and belmont as it is with randwick and flemington . his family has only been in australia for two generations , the importation of his u . s . - bred granddam dancing show ( nijinsky ) to the antipodes in 1988 ranking in retrospect as one of most notable arrivals in australasian bloodstock history . thanks to dancing show , this family has become a notable part of the bloodstock scene down under , just as it already was on both sides of the atlantic , her granddam best in show ( traffic judge ) having been voted kentucky broodmare of the year in 1982 .", "by the late ' 80s , best in show was already ancestress of the likes of el gran senor ( northern dancer ) , try my best ( northern dancer ) and malinowski ( sir ivor ) . her subsequent descendants to have achieved celebrity status in the northern hemisphere include rags to riches ( a . p . indy ) , spinning world ( nureyev ) , xaar ( gb ) ( zafonic ) , peeping fawn ( danehill ) and jazil ( seeking the gold ) . furthermore , the hong kong champion designs on rome ( ire ) ( holy roman emperor { ire } ) descends from best in show ' s half - sister stolen date ( sadair ) . dancing show was imported into australia via new zealand .", "she had been covered to southern hemisphere time in 1987 by miswaki at walmac international farm in kentucky , and the resultant colt was born in new zealand in 1988 . she subsequently moved on to australia , imported by norman carlyon of muranna stud in victoria . at what turned out to be the twilight of the era of the dominance of star kingdom ( ire ) ( stardust { gb } ) - - ie . just before danehill began to have runners - -", "carlyon sent her to a couple of very good stallions from the star kingdom line . in 1990 she visited the 1988 g1 golden slipper winner star watch ( aus ) ( bletchingly { aus } ) , and in 1991 she visited the 1990 golden slipper winner canny lad ( aus ) ( bletchingly { aus } ) . dancing show ' s miswaki colt turned out to be umatilla ( nz ) , who won at group 1 level as a 2 - year - old in the 1990 / ' 91 season , taking the karrakata plate in perth at a time when it still was a race of national significance , worthy of group 1 status .", "her star watch colt became her second group 1 - winning juvenile : named hurricane sky ( aus ) , he landed the blue diamond s . in 1994 . her canny lad filly shantha ' s choice ( aus ) , a three - parts sister to hurricane sky , was less successful , winning one minor race over 1200 metres , but she now stands as a very high - achiever . by the time shantha ' s choice had retired to stud , the era of danehill had begun . shantha ' s choice duly did what many well - credentialed star kingdom - line mares did during the ' 90s and the early years of this century : she visited danehill , the consequence of which was that redoute ' s choice was born in 1996 . he went on to be a top - class racehorse , winning the blue diamond at two and the caulfield guineas at three .", "even greater achievements followed once he had retired to arrowfield , and dancing show ' s legend continued to grow with shantha ' s choice ' s subsequent children including platinum scissors ( aus ) ( danehill ) and manhattan rain ( aus ) ( encosta de lago { aus } ) .", "dancing show ' s next daughter after shantha ' s choice , show dancing ( nz ) ( don ' t say halo ) , also went on to be a top broodmare , most notably producing g1 australian guineas winner al maher ( aus ) ( danehill ) . redoute ' s choice has been australia ' s champion sire three times , and hasfinished in the top five on the general sires table in 10 of the past 11 years . he needs no introduction down under , and such is the freedom of information in the internet era , he needs no introduction anywhere else , either . he is adept at siring both high - class juveniles and classic horses , while eight of his aus - bred sons have sired at least one group 1 winner .", "that number seems sure to rise , and one of the young sires who could swell that tally is elzaam ( aus ) , who was conceived at arrowfield to northern hemisphere time in february 2007 and who raced with distinction in england , landing the carnarvon s . at newbury in 2011 by six lengths after failing by only a nose in the previous year ' s g2 coventry s . at royal ascot . elzaam retired to ballyhane stud in ireland in 2013 . his first juveniles currently include three winners , headed by king electric ( ire ) , who scored at the curragh two weeks ago .", "in the two years in which he stood as a reverse - shuttler at haras de bonneville , redoute ' s choice was easily the most expensive stallion in france . he thus received some very good mares , and consequently it looks certain that some very good racehorses will eventuate . over and above the aforementioned filly out of sunday nectar , those for whom particularly high expectations might be held include two who sold very well as yearlings in 2015 : a half - sister to last year ' s g1 1000 guineas heroine legatissimo ( ire ) ( danehill dancer { ire } ) and a half - brother to g2 prix du conseil de paris winner vadamar ( dalakhani { ire } ) .", "the former was bought by mv magnier in tattersalls book 1 for 725 , 000gns and is now named smoulder ( gb ) ; while the latter fetched i950 , 000 at arqana in august to the bid of john ferguson and is now named valcartier ( ire ) . redoute ' s choice ' s other european 2 - year - olds include the aga khan ' s homebred zarmitan ( fr ) , a son of the brilliant zarkava ( ire ) ( zamindar ) , who has joined alain de royer - dupre ' s stable and who holds an entry for next year ' s derby . redoute ' s choice ' s current total of 30 individual group 1 winners is remarkably good , but what is even better is that it is almost certain to continue to rise for years to come , courtesy of good horses in both hemispheres .", "macquarie legal practice is a

like , thick - walled carpometacarpi of the jamaican ibis xenicibis were interpreted by longrich & olson ( 2011 ) as weapons used in combat . such a role is supported by the presence of healed carpometacarpal and humeral injuries in two specimens . . . .", "the initial description of xenicibis was followed two years later by the discovery of a humerus ( upper arm bone ) found in jamacia\u2019s swansea cave . the unusual , robust nature of this bone led olson and steadman to believe that xenicibis was flightless that had evolved on jamacia . along with another fossil flightless ibis \u2013 apteribis glenos \u2013 described by olson and colleague a . wetmore in 1976 , xenicibis was one of the first flightless ibis to be recognized by science .", "while doubtless used for defense , as the ibis evolved its flightlessness on an island filled with predators , it ' s thought the club wing was used against other members of the same species , as evidenced by the high number of fractured bones found in the skeletal remains .", "chichester art i did not do any wildlife today , but jean and i had an interesting day of art in chichester . first , we went to see the john minton centenary exhibition at the pallant gallery . minton was a rather sad and tortured artist who committed suicide aged 39 . his art was not great , but he was a fine illustrator and did a large number of books and other things . his paintings included a huge mural called ' jamaican village ' .", ". . . birds , however , have been largely ignored until now . hitherto , only about ten fossil bird species were known from the pleistocene of jamaica ( morgan , 1993 ; mcfarlane et al . , 2002 ) , one of which is xenicibis xympithecus , a now - extinct , flightless ibis ( olson and steadman , 1977 ; longrich and olson , 2011 ) . . . .", "a very well written and presented article , tying in aspects of larmarckism whilst relating the importance of this new work on the genus xenicibis . the lack of native predators , ( excepting the presence of one or two birds of prey ) , leads me to suspect that the wings evolved for intraspecific combats , perhaps over nesting sites . after all , a number of extant ibis are extremely territorial .", "the skeleton of the sacred ibis of the ancient egyptians , as found in mummified form in egyptian tombs , from a paper cuvier had published in 1804 . cuvier identified this bird to be comparable to modern species . however since it was distinctly different from the living bird commonly identified as the same species , it had been used ( by other naturalists ) as evidence for the gradual \" transformation or evolution of animals over long periods of time ( from rudwick 1997 ) .", "xenicibis might have used its wings to clobber enemies in defence . unlike its living cousins , this ibis couldn\u2019t fly . many island birds lose the ability to fly because they aren\u2019t threatened by any land predators . as a result , their wings become small and stunted , as in the kiwi or the flightless cormorant of the galapagos . but prehistoric jamaica had no shortage of predators , including a boa , an extinct monkey , and several birds of prey . defence would have been important .", "the bedrooms are medium in size but are larger than the majority of the rooms in ibis properties in benelux . they are in very good condition and have recently benefitted from a make over where the colour scheme is a more attractive cream and beige , with wooden flooring and lcd televisions , along with a media hub in all rooms . the bathrooms are also in good condition and although with shower only , the showers are large with glass doors and are generally quite modern and attractive .", "fortunately , there are a few indications that xenicibis truly was a fightin\u2019 ibis . other than the fact that some modern birds fight with their wings , longrich and olson cite two broken arm bones which show signs of healing . one , a humerus , began to heal after being split in two , and the other , a carpometacarpus , has a large callus of bone which probably grew in response to a fracture . these findings are consistent with the idea that these birds were using their wings to strike each other .", "what remains unknown is what individual xenicibis were fighting and why . the most plausible answer is \u201cother xenicibis . \u201d since there is no indication that the anatomy of the weapon differed between males and females , longrich and olson propose that xenicibis fought each other over territory , particularly for good nesting spots . the wing clubs could have also been used to fight off predators , too , and this brings up an important point . we can generate ideas about the function of the bird\u2019s wings by looking at their anatomy and come up with multiple possible uses , but identifying those uses does not tell us why those particular traits evolved in the first place . the clubs of xenicibis may have evolved as a result of ibis -

( in fact , we are arguably still in the midst of it . ) the giant sloths , saber - toothed cats , glyptodonts , mammoths , giant hyenas , and other impressive pleistocene beasts only became extinct within the past 15 , 000 years or so . nor were all the strange creatures charismatic , mammalian megafauna . one odd ibis , first described over thirty years ago , was unlike any other bird to have ever evolved .", "the main object of interest is the bird\u2019s bizarre hand . the carpometacarpus \u2013 part of the bird\u2019s \u201chand\u201d you tear the meat off of while having chicken wings \u2013 is wider in diameter than the bird\u2019s thigh bone ( femur ) and has extraordinarily - thickened walls . behind this bone , the radius \u2013 a lower arm bone in line with the carpometacarpus \u2013 was unusually thick compared to the relatively slender companion bone , the ulna . additionally , there was a modified groove \u2013 properly called the carpal trochlea \u2013 on the end of the carpometacarpus closest to the rest of the body which allowed the wrist to be quickly swung forward in a way different from other avians . this was not the arm of flying bird , but it also differed from the wings of many ground - dwelling birds . rather than becoming reduced or vestigial , the wings of xenicibis actually became heavier and more robust .

it\u2019s hard to be sure , especially because there are few modern birds with similar bones to compare against . however , longrich and olson have found some compelling evidence that the bird struck heavy blows with its wings at least two specimens of xenicibis had arm bones that had broken and healed . the first had broken its upper arm ( humerus ) in two and the bones hadn\u2019t knitted together properly . the second had fractured its hand , and a massive callus had grown over the front edge . these birds struck something with enough force to injure themselves .", "alternatively , the bird could have boxed with its rivals . longrich and olson note that a couple of flightless birds have similar ( but far less extreme ) forearms , including the steamer duck and the extinct rodriguez island solitaire . and both of these species occasionally use ( or used ) their wings in to beat other individuals in fights .", "in fact , many birds use their wings as weapons ( including some ibises ) . some even have special adaptations for combat . waterfowl in particular , such as geese , ducks and swans , have a wide variety of spurs , spikes and bony knobs on their wrists . they use these weapons in battle and conflicts can be very violent ( although there\u2019s some debate about whether swans can actually break a person\u2019s arm ) . xenicibis just expanded on a theme that\u2019s common in the bird world and took it to an evolutionary extreme .", "birds have repeatedly evolved flightlessness to exploit insular environments where mammalian predators and competitors are absent , and flightlessness is typically associated with reduction of the forelimbs and pectoral girdle [ 1 , 2 ] . flightlessness has evolved dozens of times in island habitats , and in many taxa , including waterfowl , megapodes , rails , pigeons , parrots [ 2 ] and ibises [ 3 , 4 ] .", "later , a partial skeleton prepared from a block of cave breccia ( usnm 460349 ) included the radius , ulna and a carpometacarpus so utterly strange in morphology that it appeared to represent some inexplicable pathology . however , subsequent discoveries of additional material from numerous additional individuals , including almost all of the skeleton ( figure 1 ) , show that the bizarre morphology of the wing represents an adaptation unprecedented among the vertebrates , which we here describe and attempt to interpret .", "skeletal reconstruction of xenicibis xympithecus based on usnm 460349 and fossils from the red hills fissure cave deposits , saint andrews parish , jamaica .", "the highly modified manus is unlike that of any other bird , flightless or volant ( figure 2 a \u2013 d ) . the major metacarpal is massive , inflated , strongly bowed and expanded distally . its diameter is up to 12 . 8 mm dorsoventrally and 9 . 9 mm anteroposteriorly , exceeding the diameter of the femur . the bone is hollow , but the anterior wall is broad and thickened ( figure 2 e ) , being up to 3 mm thick in this area , whereas the cortex of the femur is under 2 mm thick .", "wing skeleton of x . xympithecus compared with eudocimus albus and apteribis glenos .

but the extreme modification of the forelimb argues that the wings had been adapted to function in some capacity .", "attempts to identify avian analogues are complicated by the unique morphology of xenicibis . the distally expanded radius does find parallels among steamer ducks ( tachyeres spp . ; n . r . longrich 2010 , personal observation ) and the extinct rodriguez island solitaire ( pezophaps solitaria , columbidae [ 11 ] ) . in those species , the wings are ( or were ) used to deliver hammering blows to conspecifics [ 11 , 12 ] , suggesting that the wing of xenicibis may have functioned as a weapon . perhaps a better analogue is to be found among some of the mantis shrimps ( stomatopoda : gonodactyloidea ) ; these have a club - like , distally inflated dactyl that is used to strike prey and conspecifics [ 13 ] , again hinting that xenicibis may have used the club - shaped hands to deliver blows .", "we therefore propose that the wing of xenicibis functioned as a club or flail . several features of the limb would have facilitated this function . kinetic energy is the product of mass and velocity squared ; accordingly , weapons such as clubs and flails have a long handle to increase the angular velocity of the club , and are heavily weighted to increase the mass accelerated by the swing , and the centre of mass is near the end of the club , where the angular velocity is highest . precisely this design is seen in the hand of xenicibis , where the end of the wing is massive , and the proximal metacarpus and long forelimb could act as a handle . the comparatively weak wrist joint does not preclude such a function , because during impact a club acts as a free body [ 14 ] ; the hollow metacarpal also allows the hand to achieve greater strength for a given amount of material , much like an aluminium baseball bat [ 14 ] .", "several morphological adaptations would have further increased the wing ' s effectiveness as a weapon . reduction of the extensor process and elongation of the manus would decrease the mechanical advantage of the wing extensors , producing a more rapid wing extension . the retention of long wing bones allows the forelimb to be swung rapidly , while the ability to hyperextend at the elbow and wrist increase the wing ' s effective length , and therefore its angular velocity when swung .", "this hypothesis can be tested by looking for direct evidence of agonistic behaviour in the form of traumatic injuries sustained from delivering or receiving blows . fractures are common in pugnacious birds such as the steamer ducks and solitaire [ 11 , 12 ] , and are therefore predicted to occur in xenicibis . two bones of xenicibis show evidence of healed fractures . the first is a humerus that was broken in two ( figure 4 a ) ; a fracture callus indicates healing although the bones failed to knit . the second specimen ( usnm 460349 ) is a carpometacarpus ( figure 4 b ) with a massive callus overgrowing the anterior surface of the major metacarpal and extending inside the bone as well ;

( the closest thing , storrs and longrich suggest , might be the formidable claws of mantis shrimp , though this analogy breaks down in terms of anatomy and function \u2013 imagine xenicibis using its wings to trap and consume prey ! ) being that many birds do have a modified carpometacarpus used for combat , however , it is a reasonable hypothesis that the odd wings of xenicibis were used as some kind of club or flail . the bird could have swung its arms so that the wide , thick parts of the carpometacarpus near the tip of the wing struck its opponent .", "the actual manner in which xenicibis fought is not discussed in the paper \u2013 i assume that will be the focus of further research \u2013 but longrich and olson propose that the unique weaponry of this bird underscores a grander theme of evolutionary change . of all the birds which have spurs , spikes , and clubs on their wings , none was quite like xenicibis . despite similar evolutionary pressures \u2013 fighting one another for territory , mates , or some other resource \u2013 multiple species of birds from various lineages have been adapted to have very different weaponry , with xenicibis having the oddest of all . even when selective pressures are the same , evolutionary quirks and contingencies can generate quite different outcomes .", "as strange as it may sound , prehistoric creatures like xenicibis make dixon\u2019s speculative beasts seem almost conservative in their anatomy . many of the creatures featured in after man are products of convergent evolution , testaments to the power of natural selection to funnel organisms down similar channels from disparate starting points . convergence is a real and significant part of life\u2019s pattern , but chance and contingency can open up unique evolutionary possibilities that cannot be predicted or foreseen . the more we learn about the fossil record , the stranger life becomes , and though i am a little saddened by the fact that i will never know what life is going to be like 50 million years from now , i am left in awe by the fantastic creatures which inhabited this planet in ages past .", "use of and / or registration on any portion of this site constitutes acceptance of our user agreement ( updated 5 / 25 / 18 ) and privacy policy and cookie statement ( updated 5 / 25 / 18 ) . your california privacy rights . the material on this site may not be reproduced , distributed , transmitted , cached or otherwise used , except with the prior written permission of cond\u00e9 nast . ad choices .", "an extinct flightless bird from jamaica fought rivals and predators using wings evolved into clubs , scientists suggest .", "the boney bludgeons carried by xenicibis xympithecus are unlike anything else known in the bird world -

3 offspring per year . the young stay with their parents for several months , while other offspring are born and raised . the lifespan of wild solenodons is thought to be relatively long , as one individual survived for more than eleven years in captivity .", "cuban solenodons are nocturnal ( vaughn et al . , 2000 ) . during the day , they stay in rock clefts , hollow trees , or burrows ( massicot , 2001 ) . only the toes of solenodon come into contact with the ground . however , they can run surprisingly fast and can also climb ( nowak , 1999 ) . although cuban solenodons are often found near vertical surfaces , they spend much of their time on the ground ( massicot , 2001 ) .", "there is really nothing on the planet like the solenodon . there are just two surviving species today , one found on cuba and the other , more well known , on hispaniola . but these two species alone are so distinct from any other mammal that they represent an entire biological family : solenodontidae . to put that in perspective every single species of mice and rat \u2013 from the african pygmy mouse to the northern luzon giant cloud rat \u2013 also represent a single family of 700 - plus species .", "like most other insectivores , solenodons rest during the day and become active at night . they usually spend their days in small groups within burrows or shallow hollows in the ground , but may also rest in small hiding places . they spread out at night to look for food alone , and will attack fellow solenodons that get too close , often inflicting nasty bites . if a predator approaches , the solenodon has the option of charging and biting , or running off . unless it is startled or has nowhere to flee , it will usually choose running over fighting .", "endemic to the island of hispaniola ( haiti and the dominican republic ) . s . paradoxus paradoxus occurs in northern hispaniola . s . p . woodi occurs in the south of the island , in the sierra de baoruco -

( n . ) ramosum as well as the gaudryceratids gaudryceras denseplicatum and g . tenuiliratum , joined now , however , by anagaudryceras politissimum , an immigrant from southern india , which much later , during the maastrichtian , was widely distributed in ai , swp , sep and nep , but in nwp it is confined either to the coniacian ( sakhalin ) or to the late campanian - early maastrichtian ( japan ) . this could also be connected with some temperature maximum , recorded for the coniacian and campanian ( yu . d . zakharov et al . , 2002 ) .", "tetragonitids are represented by tetragonites glabrus , which probably appeared already in the cenomanian of alaska ( bp ) , and later extended into the nwp , nep and ai provinces . a similar way of distribution can be determined for t . epigonus , which first appeared in the turonian of japan ( nwp ) and later extended to the eu , ai and swp provinces .", "the appearance of binneyites in sakhalin is interesting . this genus was held to be endemic to the northern western interior of north america ( wna province ) . since only a single specimen is known from the northwest pacific , probably , this is an example of post - mortem drift distribution ( compare kennedy & cobban , 1976 ) .", "of the family desmoceratidae only kitchinites ishikawai survives , but new ( sub ) species appeared as well , such as k . japonica , jimboiceras mihoense , damesites damesi intermedius and d . sugata . all of them are pacific endemics , with the exception of d . sugata , which is also known from the ai and south eu provinces . hourcquia pacifica , the endemic pseudotissotiid , survived into the coniacian .", "the coniacian of sakhalin and japan sees the first member of the family pachydiscidae , an endemic to nwp , menuites ( anapachydiscus ) sutneri . this constitutes one of the earliest appearances of menuites ( anapachydiscus ) ; an even earlier one was noted from post - turonian strata in durban , south africa ( kennedy et al . , 1973 ) .", "in the russian pacific , the santonian was characterised by a continued increase of taxonomic diversity , in spite of an abrupt temperature drop across the coniacian / santonian boundary ( yu . d . zakharov et al . , 2002 ) , which is reflected in the disappearance of many coniacian forms . however , as noted before , ammonites did not really depend of climate changes and usually rapidly recovered following such environmental crises .", "some long - lived species still occur , such as the phylloceratid , hypophylloceras ( neophylloceras ) ramosum , and the gaudryceratids gaudryceras tenuiliratum and g . denseplicatum . however , these two families also are represented by new species in northeast russia , that is , phyllopachyceras forbesianum ( phylloceratidae ) , and , in sakhalin , phyllopachyceras ezoense ( phylloceratidae ) , anagaudryceras yokoyamai and zelandites kawanoi ( gau - dryceratidae ) .", "the family tetragonitidae is represented by the endemic saghalinites saghalinensis , tetragonites glabrus , t . epigonus and t . popetensis , and one immigrant species , pseudophyllites indra , which appeared only in northeast russia . in far east russia , collignoniceratids are represented by the subfamily texanitinae , also with a high degree of provincialism . texanites ( plesiotexanites ) kawasakii and protexanites ( p . ) bontanti shimizui are known only from sakhalin , the latter being an immigrant from eu province , while p . ( p . ) fukazawai and p . ( p . ) shoshonensis have been recorded exclusively from northeast russia ( bp province ) .", "desmoceratids are still represented by species and subspecies which appeared earlier , that is , kitchinites ishikawai , k . japonica , damesites sugata and d . damesi intermedius . two others , d . d . damesi and hauericeras angustum , are new and both are endemic . hauericeras angustum probably originated from h . gardeni , after migrating in from ai to japan .", "there is a markedly wide distribution of pachydiscids , comprising eupachydiscus haradai , menuites ( m . ) menu , m . ( m . ) naibutiensis and m . ( m . ) japonicus . it appears that m . ( m . ) menu first appeared in the koryak upland , later in sakhalin and japan , and gave rise to two endemic species , m . ( m . ) naibutiensis and m . ( m . ) japonicus , which in turn disappeared from the pacific and migrated elsewhere , more specifically south africa and southern india ( ai province ) , where they appeared during the maastrichtian ( forbes , 1846 ; kennedy & henderson , 1992a , 1992b ; kennedy & klinger , 2006 ) .", "the family kossmaticeratidae shows the highest degree of provincialism , with three species of yokoyamaoceras known from northeast russia only , namely y . venustum , y . jimboi and y . kotoi . in sakhalin only two of these , y . jimboi and y . ishikawai , have been recorded .", "one the most interesting events in the santonian is the appearance of the mortoniceratine ( brancoceratid ) mortoniceras ? kawasakii , recorded by kawada ( 1929 ) . elsewhere in the world , representatives of mortoniceras sensu stricto are completely unknown from post - albian / lower cenomanian strata . probably , kawada\u2019s specimen is best reassigned to the subgenus mortoniceras ( submortoniceras ) , which is known from the campanian of california and oregon ( anderson , 1958 ) , and could thus represent the precursor of species of mortoniceras ( submortoniceras ) in california .", "the family tetragonitidae appears to have evolved furthest , with seven species known from campanian deposits in far east russia . two of these are cosmopolitan ( pseudophyllites indra and tetragonites epigonus ) , another two ( t . glabrus and t . popetensis ) are characterised by wider distribution than the remaining three , t . crassus , saghalinites teshioensis and s . saghalinensis , which are endemic to the north pacific . representatives of saghalinites have not yet been found in northeast russia .", "during the campanian , kossmaticeratids demonstrated absolute endemicity and provincialism . three species are known from northeasterly regions , namely yoko - yamaoceras jimboi , y . venustum and y . kotoi , while only one ( y . ishikawai ) was found in sakhalin .", "representatives of the collignoniceratidae are known only from the koryak upland , being the endemics protexanites fukazawai and p . aff . shoshonensis . these record the last appearance of this family and of the subfamily texanitinae , both here as elsewhere in the world ( wright et al . , 1996 ) .", "representatives of the family tetragonitidae , tetragonites popetensis , pseudophyllites indra and saghalinites sp . , are characterised by a relatively wide distribution . also interesting is the appearance of the kossmaticeratid brahmaites ( subbrahmaites ) sachalinensis , which clearly is an endemic subgenus and species , but this event is correlative with the fad of brahmaites ( b . ) brahma forbes in southern india , southwest france , madagascar ( collignon , 1938 ) and tunisia ( goolaerts et al . , 2004 ) , and also with the occurrence of b .

schindewolf 1958 ; farinacci et al . 1976 ; hewitt et al . 1993 ; kruta et al . 2009 ) , due to this fact , the typical features of these morpho - types ( e . g . three - layered structure and tubular layer ) were approximated to other types of upper jurassic aptychi . . . .", ". . . this lamellar structure makes it possible to understand the mode of aptychi growth : each new lamella was deposited along the lateral margin of the aptychus and slightly overlapped the previous one ; therefore , aptychi grew not only hori - zontally but also vertically , gradually thickening . similarly , with the thickening in a vertical direction , the laevaptychi of aspidoceratid macroconchs grew ( kruta et al . 2009 ) . therefore , despite significant differences in the microstructure and the number of calcitic layers , the growth pattern of aptychi in both sexual dimorphic counterparts of aspidoceratinae was quite similar . . . .", ". . . the outer chitinous lamella is sculptured by dense , concentric growth lines and has an indentation at the midline joint in the posterior margin . the outer calcified element of the lower jaw , i . e . , aptychus , is made of calcite ( schindewolf 1958 ;

rather , they directly differentiate into neural cells . thus , subsequent stages of neurogenesis must have diverged in the lineage leading to the onychophorans , such as mitotic divisions of the segregated neural precursor cells , the evolution of intermediate neural precursors , and the generation of epidermal and neural cells from the ventral neuroectoderm .", "if we assume that the presented evolutionary sequence is correct , we would have to conclude that neuroblasts have gradually evolved from npgs . there is indeed evidence from intermediate states that supports this theory . in the centipede strigamia maritima , all cells of a npg are attached to a single cell of the group rather than to the apical surface as in chelicerates and millipedes ( 14 ) . this cell expresses higher levels of delta transcripts as compared with the remaining cells of the group . thus , delta / notch signaling seems to generate single cells with distinct properties within the npgs in strigamia , although the whole group eventually invaginates and gives rise to neural cells . furthermore , in the basal insect schistocerca americana , groups of four to eight cells are selected in the ventral neuroectoderm ( 12 ) . one cell of the group , the neuroblast , delaminates , whereas the remaining cells of the group differentiate into a cap cell and sheath cells that surround the neuroblast and its lineage .", "our data on onychophoran neural precursor formation contradict neither the mandibulata nor the myriochelata hypothesis . however , we suggest that the invagination of npgs and the exclusive generation of neural cells in the ventral neuroectoderm of chelicerates and myriapods represent plesiomorphic characters that cannot be used to support the myriochelata hypothesis . furthermore , the deployment of onychophoran characters for outgroup comparison has to be considered carefully . crown - group euarthropods and probable stem - group onychophorans already existed in the early cambrian period ( 46 \u2013 48 ) . hence , the onychophoran lineage must have had a long evolutionary history diverged from the euarthropod stem lineage . therefore , extant onychophorans might not show the ancestral state of neurogenesis without modifications . indeed , our data show that the development of the nervous system in onychophorans largely does not reflect the ancestral pattern of euarthropod neurogenesis ; rather , it seems to show a mixture of derived characters and ancestral characters that have been present in the last common ancestor of arthropods but have been modified in the euarthropod lineage .", "for the detection of f - actin , we used alexa phalloidin 488 ( invitrogen ) ;

studded history . in fact , australia and new zealand have produced absolutely brilliant individuals that could hold their own in the company of great thoroughbreds anywhere and the history of how these stars came to be is rich and fascinating . as well , uncovering some of this history has only reinforced my sense of how intermingled the families of thoroughbreds are worldwide and how these connections have brought us the individuals who light up the turf from great britain to the usa to india to japan today .", "this , then , is the first of a series on thoroughbreds from australia and new zealand and begins , quite properly , with a thumbnail history of the origins of the sport .", "( note : being canadian and having few contacts in either australia or new zealand , it has been very difficult trying to discern what books to buy that would give me a good history of the australian and new zealand thoroughbred , including significant people as well as thoroughbred champions . any suggestions from vault readers would be deeply appreciated ! )", "the horse wasn\u2019t indigenous to australia , but with the arrival of british colonists it quickly became an essential component of settling the \u201cnew\u201d land ( i . e . \u201cnew\u201d to the settlers , that is ) .", "as is the case worldwide , the australian and new zealand ( aus + nz ) thoroughbred owes its origins to great britain , where the breed originated . however , aus + nz have a history of close collaboration in the development of their thoroughbred horse , much like that of england and ireland . although often lumped together for this reason , aus + nz are , of course , different cultures with different histories , even though australians have embraced new zealand -

loved thoroughbreds during the depression era .", "so you think , a two - time winner of the cox plate , was equine royalty in australia before he was shifted from trainer bart cummings to ballydoyle in ireland . despite his victories in great britain , can we say that we really saw the true so you think ?", "champion skyline ( 1955 ) typified the \u201clook\u201d of the aus + nz thoroughbred which focuses on \u201csolid and sensible . \u201d however , with the recent appetite for speed , we are inclined to wonder if that \u201clook\u201d with its emphasis on stamina is undergoing a qualitative shift .", "this painting of hector is an indication of the significance of his arrival to aus in 1830 . the travel companions were also known as old hector and old northumberland respectively , making the tracing of their influence even more complex .", "by 1840 the australian racing committee was formed , re - named the australian jockey club ( ajc ) in 1842 . in keeping with their mission to nurture the development of a unique aus thoroughbred , one known for strength and stamina , the ajc inaugurated and organized a program of classic races , the chief among them the vjc derby ( aus oldest derby ) , the ajc derby and the melbourne , sydney , brisbane and caulfield cups . all of the races accepted into the classic program were at distances of 1 . 5 miles or better . other states and jurisdictions in australia developed their own racing clubs in the 19th century , including victoria , which inaugurated its own victoria jockey club in 1864 , as well as queensland , southern and western australia and the island of tasmania . by 1883 , 192 racing clubs were registered with the ajc .", "another important early influence was fisherman ( 1853 ) , a british stallion imported by hurtle fisher in 1860 to stand at his stud in victoria , maribyrnong .", "fisherman ( 1853 ) was one of the foundation sires of the aus + nz thoroughbred . he is depicted here by the great equine artist , john frederick herring , sr .", "if ever a horse was the incarnation of stamina and strength , it had to be fisherman who , during his racing career , won 70 races , including 21 wins from 35 starts in a single racing season . winner of 26 queen\u2019s plate trophies and two ascot gold cups , fisherman on the occasion of his win of the first gold cup , was rewarded by being saddled up the very next day to run in the 3 + m queen\u2019s plate \u2014 which he won stylishly , ears pricked . fisherman was one of the best british stayers of the nineteenth century and it was little wonder he exercised such a potent influence on the aus + nz thoroughbred : in a short 5 seasons before his death , the champion sired 10 stakes winners and his progeny boasted a total of 25 stakes wins .", "new zealand began to import its earliest thoroughbreds from new south wales ( aus ) in the 1840\u2019s -

stage pathway for sex differentiation in a . diaphana lacerates . stage 1 : sexually undifferentiated individuals differentiate equally to either males or hermaphrodites . stage 2 : primary males progress with spermatogenesis and spermiation , whereas hermaphrodites undergo sex allocation in which one gender becomes the dominant gender in the polyp and the other gender represses and often disappears . hermaphrodites that undergo sex allocation may finally become males , females , or mature as hermaphrodites ( i . e . , trioecy ) .", "the glass anemone is a carnivore . in the wild aiptasia derive nutrition from their symbiotic alge , zooxanthellae , as well as from the water around them . they use their tentacles to capture organic matter that floats by , then insert the food into their mouths for ingestion . they generally eat zooplankton , but will always accept other foot particles .", "do water changes of 10 % monthly or 20 % every other month . they will flourish in poor water -

first with the horns pointed away from vital organs . roadrunners can also kill and eat rattlesnakes , often in tandem with another roadrunner : as one distracts the snake by jumping and flapping , the other sneaks up and pins its head , then bashes the snake against a rock . if it\u2019s is too long to swallow all at once , a roadrunner will walk around with a length of snake still protruding from its bill , swallowing it a little at a time as the snake digests .", "based on banding records , the oldest roadrunner was at least 7 years old .", "roadrunners hold a special place in native american and mexican legends and belief systems . the birds were revered for their courage , strength , speed , and endurance . the roadrunner\u2019s distinctive x -

[ 16 ] were able to resolve several difficult problems in the phylogeny of green plants by sampling the rbcl gene only , and it has been shown that supermatrix approach can handle even 90 % missing data without loss of accuracy if the data available contain enough informative characters [ 11 ] , [ 17 ] , [ 32 ] \u2013 [ 35 ] .", "the advances in fern systematics over the past decades have provided a rather good taxonomic understanding at the family level , and the recently proposed fern classification [ 8 ] was largely supported by the current study . generic delimitation , however , has remained ambiguous in a number of fern families [ 8 ] , [ 23 ] . the analyses presented here shed new light on several unresolved issues , and can be used as a starting point to a more robust classification at this taxonomic level . a good example was that of blechnaceae , a family composed of three well supported clades that ( apart from woodwardia ) do not correspond well with the currently accepted generic classification .", "until recently , most of the molecular systematic studies of ferns were based on classical fern taxonomy . the most convenient way of overcoming the impact of outdated taxonomies , as well as detecting contaminated or misidentified sequences [ 11 ] , [ 40 ] , [ 41 ] , is through the use of supermatrix analysis of all available data . the results presented here corroborated most recent findings in molecular fern systematics , but also provided a much wider view for future studies in fern evolution , taxonomy , and beyond . instead of relying on the classical fern taxonomy , pteridologists can now select proper outgroups and delimit their ingroups in an appropriate way from an evolutionarily perspective . as yet , only about one - fifth of the extant fern diversity is currently covered by genbank , but the road is open for a fully sampled fern tree of life , and ultimately , for a natural fern classification .", "sequence data was retrieved from genbank release 176 ( feb . 23 , 2010 ) using phylota browser ( urltoken ) . phylota assembles blast clustering for all sequences in the genbank release file [ 42 ] . clusters corresponding to four protein coding plastid genes , rbcl , rps4 , atpa , and atpb , were downloaded for root node \u201cmoniliformopses\u201d . this data set was further supplemented by downloading rbcl data of japanese ferns [ 43 ] and adding several fern sequences produced with standard methods and primers [ 3 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 44 ] \u2013 [ 49 ] in our laboratory and submitted to genbank , but not yet available on the queried release ( genbank accession numbers hq157300\u2013hq157307 , hq157324\u2013hq157330 , hq157332\u2013hq157334 , hq245099\u2013hq245103 , hq680978 ) . when multiple sequences were available for one taxon , the most complete one was retained and the other sequences excluded . a few sequences in the preliminary test analyses were positioned into highly questionable taxonomic groups , and these apparently misidentified or contaminated sequences were also excluded from the final analyses . the finally accepted fern sequences ( 2 , 656 taxa ) were further supplemented with 301 outgroup taxa representing lycophytes ( 205 taxa ) , angiosperms ( 61 taxa ) and gymnosperms ( 35 taxa ) .", "multiple sequence alignments were produced for each data set with muscle [ 50 ] using default settings followed by one round of refinement . due to variable sequence completeness all the alignments had high amounts of missing data at the 5\u2032 and 3\u2032 ends . these ambiguous regions were eliminated from the final data sets after visual inspection , as well as ambiguously aligned segment within the rps4 gene . however , possible errors in the sequences ( such as stop - codons ) were not investigated . indels inserted during the sequence alignment were treated as missing data in the corresponding phylogenetic analyses . because all the markers included were plastid genes they were expected to share a common evolutionary history and were analyzed simultaneously . aligned sequence matrices were concatenated with sequencematrix software [ 51 ] . in total , the data set consisted of 2 , 957 taxa ( rbcl 2 , 681 ; rps4 1 , 134 ; atpb 825 ; atpa 526 taxa ) and 4 , 406 aligned base pairs of molecular data ( rbcl 1 , 332 ; rps4 379 ; atpb 1 , 188 ; atpa 1 , 507 bp ) . the aligned data matrices and resulting trees are available at treebase ( urltoken , [ 52 ] ) .", "phylogenetic analyses were performed for the concatenated supermatrix under equally weighted parsimony criteria using tnt [ 53 ] and maximum likelihood criteria using raxml [ 54 ] . in the parsimony analyses 500 \u2018new technology\u2019 [ 55 ] , [ 56 ] search replications were used as a starting point for each hit . these replications saved no more than 10 trees per replication , and were run until the best score was hit 10 times , using tbr - swapping , random and constraint sectorial searches , five ratchet iterations , and five rounds of tree fusing ( xmult = repl 500 hits 10 css rss ratchet 5 fuse 5 hold 10 ) . the memory was set to hold 80 , 000 trees . branch support was evaluated by running 500 bootstrap replicates . tbr - swapping , sectorial search , and five rounds of tree fusing were employed in each replicate ( resample = boot replications 500 savetrees [ xmult = rss css fuse 5 ] ) . maximum likelihood ( ml ) analyses were performed using the parallel pthreads - version of the computer program raxml 7 . 2 . 8 [ 54 ] , [ 57 ] running in 2\u00d72 . 26 ghz quad - core intel xeon macintosh with 8 gb of ram . the search was initiated with 500 rapid bootstrap replications followed by a thorough ml search on the original alignment ( - t 16 - f a - x 12345 - p 12345 - # 500 - m gtrgamma ) . free model parameters were estimated by raxml under the gtr + \u03b3 model . this is the most commonly used model for real data sets , and provides good performance for large data sets [ 58 ] .", "congruence among the data sets was examined by running parsimony bootstrap analyses for each gene separately [ 59 ] . visual inspection of the family - level nodes did not reveal well - supported ( > 70 % support ) conflict at this phylogenetic level , with the exception of nested position of lonchitidaceae within lindsaeaceae in the atpa analysis ( data not shown ) . at lower phylogenetic levels the highly variable taxon sampling made the assessment of phylogenetic conflict highly problematic , and simultaneous analysis of all data sets was considered appropriate based on family - level congruence .", "concatenated supermatrix in nexus - format ( file can be opened after unzipping for example with mesquite [ 60 ] ) .", "the strict consensus tree of parsimony analysis with bootstrap support values in nexus - format ( file can be opened for example with figtree [ 61 ] ) .", "the ml tree with bootstrap support values in nexus - format ( file can be opened for example with figtree [ 61 ] ) .", "i thank all the researchers who have produced and shared dna sequences via genbank . the willi hennig society is acknowledged for making tnt publicly available . two anonymous reviewers are acknowledged for their constructive comments on earlier draft version of this manuscript .", "conceived and designed the experiments : sl . performed the experiments : sl . analyzed the data : sl . contributed reagents / materials / analysis tools : sl . wrote the paper : sl .", "pryer km , schneider h , smith ar , cranfill r , wolf pg , et al .

edward . interestingly , vundus are only found below the victoria falls - there have been no recorded catch above the falls .", "vundu camp has eight chalets , canvas under thatch , situated on the banks of the zambezi river in the magnificent mana pools national park . each spacious room provides great views over the river and is en - suite with running shower and flush toilet . the family room

healthy populations of lion and leopard and also wild dog , one of the most sought after animals to spot on safari . the position on the river also makes for wonderful bird watching as well as wallowing hippos and if you ' re lucky , the breath - taking sight of elephants swimming across the river .", "according to the african angler web site , vundu on lake nasser often forage close to shore at night , so that ' s when you should be out there after them . it ' s a pretty strong fish that puts up a good fight , so use sturdy gear . canned meat is a good bait , since it ' s oily and gives off an alluring odor to the fish . cast your bait 6 to 10 feet from the shoreline in the shallower water . stay away from the deeper water where your bait may get lost in the weeds .", "mana

when the weather is cool and dry , and august to october is summer , when the weather is hot and dry . in terms of game viewing , the dryer months , meaning a higher concentration of game at the permanent water sources , are a superb time to visit . alternatively come for some superb birdwatching at the end of the rains .", "vundu are also accused by locals of snatching babies from the banks of rivers and swallowing them whole while the parents wash clothes . this can be attributed to the catfish ' s barbels which allow it to detect chemical traces of its prey . the scent of the soap used to wash the clothes is detected by the catfish which then lures it in to search for the prey and ultimately it goes for the only thing it can swallow if big enough : a child . soap - baited techniques are used in other parts of africa to catch other species of catfish such as the african sharptooth catfish in which its barbels also allow it to pick up chemical traces of its prey and the soap lures them in .", "on land , vundu ' s 4wd game drives and walks can range throughout the national park , although most take place in the camp ' s own private ' concession ' . this is a prime area in the

1976 . the first brood stock originated from the wild from 40 african catfish transferred from the central african republic ( hogedoorn and vismans , 1980 ) . commercial farming of this species started in 1985 in recirculation aquaculture systems ( ras ) .", "much later catfish strains from israel and the republic south africa were introduced . these strains were crossed for the production of fingerlings and resulted in the currently cultured \u201cdutch strain\u201d african catfish .", "on farmers level brood stock selection is mostly done in a very primitive way . to hold and monitor large populations of different african catfish strains strictly separate for long periods is very costly . the results are , if you are successful , visible after a couple of years and the next problem for the commercial farmer is keeping this advantage for him selve !", "another problem for the farmer producing african catfish fingerlings is to show his customer the benefit of an improved strain . improvements in growth and feed conversion ratio of for example 5 % are great achievements in the mind of a researcher , but for a farmer small differences and most probable not spotted without serious farm recordkeeping .", "practically spoken the market for african catfish fingerlings is first of all price driven . next to this hatcheries focus on availability , size , uniformity and health status of the african catfish .", "most african catfish farmers ( tropics and europe ) are small to medium sized farmers , not well organised , and simply do not have the means and abilities to do serious research on genetic improvements of their stocks . the little research done on african catfish genetics is done by universities but has never been seriously implemented in practice .", "african catfish farming is a relatively new industry . in europe it started in the early eighties and in africa only few farmers were active in an extensive way by that time .", "the first broodstock came from the wild . in the netherlands for example , wild african catfish was imported from central africa and the first generations the selection was based on growth . my personal opinion is that we were just performing selection of fish which were able to adapt to the intensive way of farming in warm water recirculation systems . soon after the introduction of african catfish from central africa fish was brought in from israel and rsa . in the netherlands the strains were not kept separate and as a result the \u201cdutch african catfish\u201d is a result of 3 strains .", "meat quality and dress out percentage are very important parameters for the processing industry . variation is noticed between the strains from different locations in africa . in the tropics the aspect of meat quality and dressing percentage are of less importance because the fish is consumed as a whole ; no filets are taken from the fish and heads and intestines are not wasted .", "within the family of clariidae ( siluriformes ) intergeneric hybrids were produced through interbreeding between species from the genera heterobranchus and clarias ( ref . ) . a well - known intergeneric hybrid is a crossbred between the heterobranchus longifillis female and clarias gariepinus male , the so called \u201chetero - clarias\u201d . due to rearranging of genetic material from both species in the offspring , the intergeneric hybrids show characteristics of both parental species . a well known hybrid is the cross between a heterobranchus longifillis female and a clarias gariepinus male , called heteroclarias ( see figure 5 ) .", "in our hatchery in the netherlands we are producing this hybrid for a group of farmers linked to a processing plant . this group is very keen in producing and marketing this type of fish . the filet of heteroclarias is white in comparison with the pink / reddish colour of clarias gariepinus filets and contains 30 % more fat than clarias gariepinus filets , which improves the taste . the gonads of hybrids are almost absent and not active . for this reason the dressing percentage is relatively high compared to clarias gariepinus . the heteroclarias fish filet can be used as an alternative for white filets from marine fish species .", "a close up of a heterobranchus longifilis fingerling . please note the adipose fin ( as shown in the hybrid )", "as a fingerling producer of heteroclarias we notice big differences in behaviour with the common african catfish . the heteroclarias fingerlings show a wide variation in growth and severe cannibalism is noticed , especially when frequent grading is neglected . next to this the heteroclarias is easily stressed . after an age of 12 weeks , well graded fish show very equal growth and low mortality to the moment of harvesting at 1 . 4 kg .", "in the tropics the heteroclarias is considered superior over the clarias gariepinus in growth in pond culture and is considered as better growing fish .", "for a fingerling producer hybridisation has a major benifit . the hybrids are infertile and it is not possible for customers to continue breeding with those fish . the pure parent stock is kept on farm and is never shared with other farmers . the pure heterobranchus longifillis strain matures at a age of 2 years , which is very late compared to clarias gariepinus ( 1 year ) .", "the purpose of good brood stock maintenance is to harvest good quality eggs and sperm . the brood stock should be individually tagged to have tracability for each batch of offspring and to have the possibility for a breeding programme . th broodstock should be given enough time to recover from spawning and with the individual tagging it is possible to do proper record keeping .", "we prefer recirculation systems in a confined area with temperature control if necessary . in the tropics flow through systems can work too , if flushed with good quality bore hole water .", "in our farm the productivity of the female ( fecundity ) expressed as % of the body weight is between 5 - 15 % . the egg size tends to increase with the size of the female . in larger fish the number of eggs per gram of eggs is lower than in smaller broodstock . on average we count 500 eggs per gram . the average females we are using in our farm have a weight of 6 kg and produce 300 - 600 gram of eggs ( 150 . 000 - 300 . 000 eggs ) .", "a female is selected from one of the broodstock tanks . with a small tube it is possible to sample the eggs out of the ovaries to check if the nucleus has migrated to the side and the egg size has a diameter of 1 mm or above . most farmers do not perform this check , they just select by eye .", "in captivity females do not perform final ripening of the eggs without hormonal treatment . the injection of gonadotropin releasing hormone in the form of natural pituitary glands or synthetic products like ovaprim induces the final step of ripening called vitelogenisis . in this final step the eggs are provided with yolk and take up water .", "the period between injection with hormones and stripping of the eggs depends on the temperature of the water and the type of hormone used . through trial and error the perfect time for stripping can be determined . too early or to late stripping results in bad egg quality and thus poor spawning results .", "too early stripping : very dry\u009d egg mass . it is difficult to completely strip the female because the eggs do not flow out . the female often dies because of the stress and internal injuries .", "too late stripping : the egg mass is fluid . often the female has released a lot of eggs in the preparation tank already and stripping is very easy .", "several hours after stripping we perform final stripping to remove all ripe eggs from the ovaries of the female . this is to prevent that these ripe eggs die inside the ovaries and start to deteriorate . this will harm the fish and can cause death of the broodstock female . the females have to stay in recovery for a couple of days before putting them back to the broodstock tank .", "male clarias gariepinus do not release sperm after treatment with hormones like many other fish species . the males have ripe sperm all year round . the fish should be at least 1 year old to have ripe gonads . a lot of variation can be seen between males of the same age in ripeness and size of testis . in practice farmers sacrify males in order to dissect the testis out of the abdomen . by making incisions in the testis tissue the sperm can be collected . as a consequence new male broodstock needs to be added to the broodstock population sacrificing the males is a big constraint on genetic programmes .", "some farmers are using operation on the males . after tranquilizing the fish , a small incision is made in the belly of the fish and with a syringe with needle some sperm is taken out of the testis . finally the incision in the belly is stitched using veterinary stitching materialand the male is able to recover in 1 to 2 weeks . during this time the wound closes completely .", "unlike the sperm of mammals sperm of fish is not active , but will become active as soon as it is in the water . the sperm is active for less than a minute , so it has to find an egg quickly before all the energy has gone . this is the reason that during the proces of sperm collection all materials , hands and the fish should be dry . although these precautions are taken , the sperm can be activated accidently . the sperm concentration of good males is more than a million per ml !", "cryo conservation of sperm has been done on an experimental scale by universities and the method is quite successful . the problem of this method for farmers is that they have to be equipped with a laboratory and should have permanent availability of liquid nitrogen to keep the sperm preserved .", "the eggs and sperm are collected in a dry glass or porcelain bowl and a dry small glass or porcelain cup respectively . a simple but effective way of fertilization is to bring the eggs and sperm together in the egg collection bowl , mix it gently before adding water .", "in literature adding certain fertilizing solutions during fertilization is reported as being very benificial , because they are thought to extend the life of the sperm in order to improve the fertilisation rate . i prefer not to use any extra fluids because any extra handling can give a problem too .", "artificial propagation of african catfish is a relatively simple procedure and many farmers are very skillful in doing it . millions of larvae are hatched weekly in a country like nigeria but until today there still is a shortage of good quality fingerlings and juveniles . reproduction of african catfish is following a certain procedure , but farming the larvae for 1 or 2 months to juvenile stage comes down to the capabilities of the individual farmer .", "african catfish hatcheries in general can be very profitable , provided it has a good culture system and dedicated hatchery staff . because many farmers lack knowledge , proper management ideas and / or a properly build hatchery , the results between farmers can vary from 200 eggs needed for 1 juvenile to 5 eggs needed for 1 juvenile ( an african catfish juvenile being a 2 month old fish of approximately 8 grams ) .", "in europe african catfish hatcheries are strictly equipped with recirculation systems ( climate conditions do not allow to do otherwise ) . in the tropics hatcheries are either recirculation systems only or a combination of recirculation systems , flow through systems , hapa\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and small ponds .", "in many african countries the juvenile production is by far not meeting the demand . this results in high prices and often inferior quality of african catfish fingerlings / juveniles being sold . many african entrepreneurs are attracted to start a hatchery , but only very few succeed . on the long term i personnaly do not believe in small backyard farmers producing some fingerlings but in medium sized operations using recirculation technology well distributed over the country providing people with fingerlings / juveniles of good quality and support people in growing those fish to table sizes fish . what i can see from my experience is that hatcheries in africa but also in europe are considered as the centres of knowledge for other farmers .", "in our hatchery design for african catfish we divide the hatchery in different sections . each section provides the optimal environment for a certain life stage of the african catfish .", "we prefer a recirculation system with connected to a water purification unit . the tanks , both fish tanks and tanks of the water purification unit , can be build of materials like glass fibre , polyethylene or concrete . the water purification unit consists of a sedimentation tank , a pump tank , a bio tower and a uv - system . the system should be placed in a confined area were the temperature can be controlled . the tanks should be equipped with good drains for easy and quick selection of the broodstock before reproduction . next to this system a number of preparation - recovery tanks should be placed ( around 300 liters ) .", "the number of brood stock needed depends on the success rate of the spawning . for example one female can be used for eight spawnings per year ( in theory ) providing 3 , 2 kg of eggs . this equals around 1 . 6 million eggs and with a minimal 10 % survival till juvenile stage this results in a yearly production 160 . 000 african catfish juveniles .", "even in the tropics i prefer to import expensive compound feed from a reliable factory in europe instead of using locally produced and often unreliable feeds . i believe a good starting point is essential for a successful development of the offspring .", "in our hatchery we try to maximise the life span of the broodstock , since replacements are costly . males can be used 1 ( if the male is killed ) to 4 times ( if the operation procedure is used ) , before it is being replaced by new , younger males . old males ( above 4 years ) tend to develop testis with sponge like tissue and it is containing watery sperm with a low concentration of spermcells . females can be used for a long period and stay in a better condition for a longer time , especially when the females are used maximum twice per year . females reach a higher weight and size than males ( max . 15 kg and 1 . 30 meters ) . growing the next generation of broodstock should be done in a separate system .", "the incubation system should be placed in a room with controlled temperature . the temperature must be kept at 30 \u00b0c . even in the tropics the water temperatures in the night can drop to 24 \u00b0c , which has a negative effect on the growth and health status of the fry .", "the uv - c unit reduces bacterial blooms ( cloudy water ) and growth of fungus , which is developping after the eggs have hatched . with the hatching of the eggs a lot of egg fluids are released in the water . together with unhatched eggs this is a fertile medium for bacteria and fungi to grow . together with constant addition of fresh water , the uv - c device stops the bloom of these unfavourable organisms . the system should be build in a way that it is easy accessible in order to do proper cleaning and inspection .", "the fertilised eggs are spread over a sieve . the eggs are surrounded by oxygen rich water , which lowers egg mortality . the eggs hatch in around 24 hours with a water temperature of 29 - 30 \u00b0c . the larvae fall through the mesh of the mosquito net , while all dead eggs and egg shells are easily removed with the netting . during the first two days the larvae absorb the yolk sac and develop their intestines . after this period the larvae are able to swim freely in search for food . the larvae change in colour from transparent green to brown during this period .", "each hatching cycle takes 13 days ( preparation of the system 2 days , 3 days hatching and absorbing yolk sac , 7 days growing the fry , 1 day harvesting and cleaning ) . it is very important that between each cycle the system is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected .", "the first feed for african catfish fry is life artemia nauplii hatched on site . from experience we know that the survival rates and growth of fry starting with life artemia is higher than with dry larval feeds or encapsulated artemia .", "if dry feed is applied always start with dry feed before feeding artemia nauplii . with glass aquaria you are able to inspect the eating behaviour and the filling of the stomach very well and overfeeding or underfeeding can be avoided . well fed african catfish larvae show full bellies and these fish settle on the bottom of the tank .", "in this system the larvae can grow from 0 , 1 gram to approximately 0 , 5 - 1 , 0 gram . the system consists of a plastic tank connected to a biotower and a sedimentation tank . a pump is providing the flow and an uv - c unit provides clean water .", "in nigeria these systems are very popular , because they are sold preassembled for a reasonable price and the maintenance on these systems is very simple and low in cost . preferably the systems should be placed indoor , were a temperature can be maintained of 28 \u00b0c .", "at 0 , 5 to 1 , 0 grams the now called fingerlings are either sold to customers or moved to the juvenile section of the hatchery .", "in africa african catfish is sold as fingerling at this size . the fish is large enough to withstand transport in 20 liter polyethylene bags filled with 1 / 3rd water and 500 to 1000 pieces of african catfish fingerlings and 2 / 3rd oxygen . next to this the fish are able to breath atmospheric air using their branchial organ and can therefore be stocked in green water ponds which normally have big oxygen level fluctuations during the day .", "this section is suited for growing fingerlings of 1 , 0 gram to juveniles of approximately 8 grams . farmers like this size because they are more robust than fingerlings and mortality rates ( mostly due to cannibalism ) are much lower . these systems should also be placed indoors . temperature can be kept at 28 \u00b0c constantly .", "the primary reason for the loss of fish during this period is cannibalism . this loss can be reduced by proper grading for shooters , also during the growth period ( see later section for explanation of grading ) . after this stage , when juveniles are growing to consumption size , loss is less than 10 % .", "fingerlings growing to juveniles should be fed several times a day in regular intervals . african catfish is also active in the dark .", "the secret of the success of many hatcheries lies for a large part in the mangement of grading . african catfish is a carnivorous fish that displays canibalistic behaviour from the moment the african catfish have absorped the yolk sac and start eating . to minimize the effect of canabilism on overall survival of the fish grading must be performed on precize moments during the growth of fry to juvenile .", "grading is performed with either large mesh nylon sieves for small fry and fixed or adjustable graders with bars for larger advanced fry and juveniles . grading takes place when transferring the african catfish from one section to the other , but in between the african catfish can be graded at fixed times ( f . e . half way the growth period in that section ) and when shooters are spotted .", "light to dark olive brown on dorsal surface , getting lighter over the mid - body to a light brown , off - white belly . fins usually light brown . they can attain size", "fishing practice is as for most catfish but , naturally , larger baits and heavier tackle are used . anglers ' bait preferences include ox livers , hearts , kidneys , plucked birds , meat and fish that have been cut down the belly and turned inside out . the smaller specimens will take a spoon and , like their bigger brothers , tend to move down stream using the current and their heavy weight to combat the angler . the further they run the greater the possibility of getting snagged on some underwater obstruction . heavy tackle , to cut short this initial run and keep the battle in open water .", "both these fish break the existing record of 78lb , these two great fish must have been a pair foraging together see the pic below .", "we work hard to bring the

over time this type was probably lost . the designation of a neotype in this revision is thus necessary . the purpose of the designation is to clarify the species\u2019 taxonomic status and its assignment to ovabunda . although the sclerites were described quite accurately in the original description ( 0 . 024\u20130 . 036 mm in diameter , and \u201cspicules fused in pairs\u201d ) , sem micrographs of the sclerites are essential as in the other species of the revision .", "we also examined additional colonies that were identified by reinicke ( 1997 ) as xenia miniata . specimen rmnh coel . 6848 has two rows of pinnules , with 12\u201314 pinnules in the outermost row ;

fated moscow mannon by \u00bd a length in the ryanair novice chase , in a field that also contained balder succes , felix yonger and champagne fever . he returned to action in november at exeter and landed the haldon gold cup by 5 lengths from balder succes but a month later his jumping let him down as he disappointed badly in the tingle creek chase . god\u2019s own then headed to kempton park over christmas to contest the grade 2 wayward lad novices\u2019 chase but went down to a 10 \u00bd lengths defeat when third to vibrato valtat . he was then off the track until last month\u2019s arkle at cheltenham , when he came back to his very best to chase home un de sceaux , eventually finishing 6 lengths second . god\u2019s own then headed to aintree and finished a length second to sizing granite in the grade 1 maghull novices\u2019 chase .", "the amateur four - mile contest takes place on the opening day of the 2016 cheltenham festival \u2013 tuesday 15 th march ; with irish champion trainer mullins holding the first three in the betting . black hercules is the 4 - 1 favourite , followed by roi de francs ( 6 - 1 ) and pont alexandre ( 8 - 1 ) .", "as is his way , might bite set a blistering pace at the front and was 20 - lengths clear of his rivals coming to the final fence . after a crashing fall at kempton at the final fence in a similar position , nico de boinville got his mount to the other side \u2013 but that\u2019s where it all went a bit wrong .", "if that sounds presumptive in a field containing one of the most outstanding two - mile champions of all , sprinter scare , other previous title - holders in dodging bullets and sire de gruggy , not to mention a handful of other proven grade 1 winners , it does allow for the suspicion that sprinter & co appear to be lights of other days .", "while defi de seuil proved to be the finest juvenile hurdler in training as he swept aside the competition in the jcb triumph hurdle . phillip hobbs horse has been imperious all season , winning on each of his six starts . it was another victory in the race for jp mcmanus who now has owned 50 winners at the festival \u2013 the most in history .", "de bromhead has become more of a summer trainer in recent years and won a galway plate in 2015 with shanahan\u2019s turn which might be his aiming to avoid some of the better mullins horses in softer races ; he has started this new season well already with three winners . the national hunt season \u2018proper\u2019 will tell the tale however with his number of potts runners cut .", "vibrato valtat was a useful novice hurdler last term and has improved with each run this season over fences . after a good run back over hurdles at cheltenham\u2019s october meeting , vibrato valtat beat the useful thomas crapper by a length on his chasing debut at warwick in early november . the paul nicholls trained 6 year old was then second best by 1 \u00be lengths to dunraven storm at cheltenham\u2019s open meeting later that month , but reversed those placings when staying up the sandown park hill to beat his old rival by 2 lengths in the grade 1 henry viii novices\u2019 chase in early december . vibrato valtat was out again three weeks later and ran on well to beat three kingdoms by \u00bd a length in the wayward lad novices\u2019 chase at kempton park . he then headed to the kingmaker novices\u2019 chase at warwick in february and jumped well and looked really impressive when defeating the useful top gamble by 4 \u00bd lengths . he then headed to the arkle at cheltenham and tried to lay - up behind un de sceaux but paid the price in the home straight , eventually finishing 13 lengths fourth . once again vibrato valtat put up a game performance at aintree two weeks ago when 4 lengths second to clarcam in the grade 1 manifesto novices\u2019 chase .", "scudamore has won nine times at the cheltenham festival \u2013 thistlecrack , ryanair world hurdle 2016 ; un temps pour tout , ultima handicap chase 2016 ; next sensation , grand annual chase 2015 ; moon racer , wetherby\u2019s champion bumper 2015 ; ballynagour , byrne group plate 2014 ; dynaste , ryanair chase 2014 ; western warhorse , racing post arkle 2014 ; salut flo , byrne group plate 2012 ; and an accordion , william hill trophy handicap chase 2008 .", "if that poor performance can be forgiven , and it should , there was enough in his previous start at kempton to be enthused by his prospects over hurdles this season ; having travelled smoothly throughout the contest on the all - weather circuit , bringithomeminty displayed an impressive gear - change as he stretched 8 lengths clear of a well - regarded paul nicholls inmate , alibi de sivola , who himself was clear of the rest .", "runner - up on his sole start in an irish point - to - point , stellar notion made a winning debut under rules in a bumper at bangor - on - dee in december before making a successful start to his hurdles career , in a heavy ground novice at newcastle the following month . a strapping son of presenting , there was no disgrace in failing to concede 6lbs to un ace on his only subsequent outing and he is certainly worth following off his opening handicap mark of 121 .", "the pair have since bounced back in fantastic style , winning the grade 1 sodexo clarence house chase at ascot . in beating an inform sire de grugy by five lengths under the gary moore\u2019s horse ideal conditions , it was a big statement pre - cheltenham . quite simply , he\u2019s the one they all have to beat , but at a price of 4 / 5 is no good to us from an ante - post betting perspective ."]}

like characteristics of the heikegani crab shell . huxley theorized that the crab\u2019s samurai faces are the result of artificial selection . he proposed the fishermen fishing japan\u2019s waters would throw back any crabs whose shells looked like a samurai\u2019s face out of respect for the fallen heike . this preserved the dna of the heikegani with samurai - like faces while thinning the genetic lines of those without .", "but , while it certainly is an interesting theory , it\u2019s likely only a bit of scientific folklore . the snarling samurai face on the heikegani\u2019s shells is the result of nothing more than the natural site of muscle attachments . the crabs are only around four centimeters and not used for food , making the theory that fishermen threw samurai face - bearing heikegani back while keeping those without extremely unlikely . other crabs with human - like shells have also been found throughout the world , even appearing in the fossil record , lending even less credit to the still fascinating theory .", "magic is always involved , either because the death happened in a high - magic environment or because the samurai was dealt a magical deathblow . a heikegani is especially vicious when young , and kills other crabs and marine creatures it encounters until it develops the ability to travel onto land .", "the problem with this theory is that the heikegani crabs , which have a maximum length of 1 . 2 inches , are too small to be eaten , so it is unlikely they were ever caught for food in the first place . furthermore , analysis of the shells has shown that the face - like patterns are simply the result of connection points for muscle and ligament tissue . finally , heikegani crabs are not the only crabs with a human - looking face on the shell . a variety of crabs from the family dorippidae all appear to have human faces on their backs .", "carl sagan theorized that the crabs\u2019 samurai faces are the result of artificial selection . he proposed the fishermen fishing japan\u2019s waters would throw back any crabs whose shells looked like a samurai\u2019s face out of respect for the fallen heike . this preserved the dna of the heikegani with samurai - like faces while thinning the genetic lines of those without .", "in the aftermath of the battle , the leader of the genji , minamoto yoritomo , became the first shogun to realize complete military control of japan . the fate of the remaining heike was execution\u2013this time without exception . it\u2019s said the heike samurais\u2019 angry spirits were reincarnated into the heikegani crabs who ate their remains , their scowling faces now marking their carapaces .", "the heikegani crab has inspired reverence to ancient legends , as well as scientific investigation into the power of selection . while many believe the angry samurai face in the crab\u2019s shell is simply the result of the psychological phenomenon of pareidolia , others believe that the grimaced faces are the heike samurai warriors , who were reborn and are still , somehow , watching over them .", "famous american astronomer and author carl sagan once speculated that the resemblance was due to artificial selection . sagan proposed that the fishermen fishing japan\u2019s waters would throw back any crabs whose shells looked like a samurai\u2019s face out of respect for the fallen heike tribe . this preserved the dna of the heikegani with samurai - like faces while thinning the genetic lines of those without .", "a far more plausible theory is that any resemblance of a human face seen in the shells of the heikegani crabs is the result of pareidolia , the human brain\u2019s innate ability to recognize faces and human forms in a set of random stimuli . common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds , the virgin mary on toast , and the man in the moon .", "the battle of dan - no - ura was preceded by an immense struggle between the imperial rulers of japan , the taira clan ( later known as heike ) , who the heikegani crabs are named after , and the minamoto clan ( genji ) , who were fighting for control of the throne at the end of the 12th century in the genpei war ( 1180 - 1185 ) .", "while it sounds good and it does fit the mold for how selective pressures tend to work , there\u2019s a problem\u2013nobody eats heikegani . they\u2019re too small . plus , crabs with this kind of shell pattern aren\u2019t confined to only that small bay , but they can be found all over the bay of japan . and there are other species of crabs with similar patterns , although maybe not as pronounced .", "a japanese crab , the heikegani , has a shell closely resembling a samurai\u2019s face . legend says the crabs are the souls of the fallen heike samurai who died in a massive battle over the japanese imperial throne . the battle of dannoura , immortalized in the heike monogatari ( the tale of heike , ) was a pivotal moment in japan\u2019s history that both established the first shogunate and killed a child emperor .", "heikegani or heike crabs ( heikeopsis japonica ) are a species of crab native to japan many of who share a distinctive feature : strange markings on their carapace that have a striking resemblance to the face of an angry samurai . the crabs get their name from a japanese epic : the tale of the heike s , an epic prose tale about a battle that was fought in japan\u2019s inland sea , which is where these crabs are found .", "the reason people see a face in the crabs is because of a psychological phenomena called pareidolia , which makes vague or random things seem significant . seeing a samurai face in the shells of crabs\u2013even the japanese heikegani\u2013is like how we see shapes in the clouds or a man in the moon . ( i\u2019ve never quite been able to see a man in the moon , by the way . i tend to side with the japanese , who say it\u2019s a rabbit . )", "the battle of dan - no - ura gave rise to many legends , the strangest of which involves a crab . this crab has a distinctive shell with a pattern that vaguely resembles the angry face of a samurai . the story goes that when the heike warriors died and sank , their souls were transferred to the crabs and their gnarled faces were forever etched onto the crab ' s back . the crab is called heikegani or the heike crab . sometimes , it\u2019s also called the samurai crab .", "because of their fascinating backstory , heikegani have skittered their way out of the history books and traditional japanese art into popular culture . one can\u2019t help but faintly see their vestige in anthropomorphic arthropods like dr . zoidberg from futurama , crabby a la pokemon , or the subterranean \u201ccrab people\u201d in south park . even carl sagan cited the angry - looking crustaceans as evidence of artificial selection in the second episode of cosmos , but beyond the shores of japan , tattoos are where they\u2019re most commonly found , grimacing amidst the waves and wind bars of irezumi .", "the heikegani crab\u2019s legend finds its roots from the two rival families\u2019 involvement in japan\u2019s government , which eventually toppled the imperial courts\u2019 power . after a fierce battle between the two opposing samurai factions , the heike seized control of japan . their leader though , kiyomori taira , was in love with his rival\u2019s , yoshitomo minamoto , concubine . at her behest he showed an uncharacteristic degree of mercy by sparing her and minamoto\u2019s sons . though it might be considered noble by modern standards\u2013especially since killing them was legally permitted\u2013it was ultimately a mistake that would later put and end to the heike samurai .", "samurai are renowned for their resolve , but sometimes a samurai becomes so obsessed with her purpose that her soul can\u2019t depart from the material plane upon her death . unable to seek eternal rest , and unwilling to become undead in the pursuit of vengeance , the samurai soul instead finds a suitable host in which to continue its existence . a heikegani is the effect of such a joining : a tragic , furious symbiosis of the soul of a dead samurai and the body of a crustacean . this usually occurs when the samurai dies near a crab habitat and her soul imprints upon a newly hatched crab zoea .", "the mythos surrounding heikegani originates from a military conflict between two feuding japanese clans back in the 12th century . following a five - year power struggle known as the genpei war , the taira ( later referred to as the heike ) and minamoto clashed in a final battle at a small bay called dan - no - ura on april 25 , 1185 . the taira were severely outnumbered , and during the fighting , their child emperor \u2014 antoku \u2014 drowned . as the tide turned in their enemy\u2019s favor , the samurai , rather than dying in dishonor , took their own lives , leaping into the frigid sea .", "years later those very sons led an uprising against him after he installed his own grandson as the new child emperor . genji forces drove the heike out of the capital and proclaimed their own emperor . their forces pursued the fleeing heike samurai and the rival emperor to the shimonoseki straight , were a final , decisive naval battle ensued . the heike were outnumbered three to one , and the battle was quickly over . the emperor was drowned by his grandmother , who promised him a new kingdom under the sea . the heiki samurai were either killed or committed suicide by drowning themselves along with their emperor\u2013their dead bodies food for the heikegani crabs .", "\" okamoto wrote \" heikegani \" at age 39 from childhood memories of a popular edo picture book in which a young fisherwoman encounters the spirit of tamamushi , a heike court lady from the heian period ( 794 ~ 1185 ) . inspired by the illustrations of tamamushi in the book , the playwright created the character of a proud , modern woman who is unwilling to passively accept others ' choices and is prepared to use violence to achieve her ends . yet tamamushi ' s passion drives her to madness , causing her to kill her own sister and the man her sister wants to marry . ultimately , it leads her to her own self -

mediated alteration of species distributions has been characterized as a modern phenomenon with limited , and largely insignificant , historical antecedents . this conventional understanding fails to account for several decades of archaeological , paleoecological , and genetic research that reveal a long and widespread history of human transformation of global biodiversity (", "fossil evidence demonstrates that h . sapiens was present \u223c195 , 000 y ago ( 195 ka ) in east africa ( 19 ) and that , by 12 ka , our species had dispersed to the far corners of eurasia , australia , and the americas ( 20 ) . mounting evidence indicates that these late pleistocene dispersals , and the increase in global human populations with which they are associated , were linked in complex ways with a variety of species extinctions , extirpations , translocations , and new modes of niche modification . evaluating pleistocene anthropogenic impacts remains challenging , but novel methods and approaches are providing solutions to long -

to - catch game , such as fish , birds , rabbits , rodents and monkeys , that may signal anthropogenic impacts to resource availability ( 28 , 29 ) . other studies document decreases in the size of certain species , such as limpets and tortoises , that may also reflect resource overexploitation ( e . g . , refs . 8 and 30 ) . some of these changes may result from the expansion of bone , stone , shell , fiber , and other tool repertoires in the late pleistocene , enabling new forms of intensive exploitation ( e . g . , refs . 31 and 32 ) .", ") . of particular importance are new global analyses drawing on higher resolution data and computational modeling approaches . these studies indicate an important role for humans and an inverse relationship between severity of extinction and duration of hominin\u2013megafauna coevolution , with uniformly high extinction rates in areas where", "proportions of megafauna known to be extinct in each region of the globe relative to the length of coevolution and contact with humans ( genus homo ) ( adapted from figure 1c in ref . 39 and figure 1 in ref . 40 ) . the numbers next to each pie chart indicate the total number of megafauna genera originally present within each region .", "cascade effects of changes to species , showing long -

scale population movements ( 69 , 71 ) . plant and animal pathogens also spread in the neolithic . the northwest european elm decline ( 3700\u20133600 b . c . e . ) may have been caused in part by the spread of a pathogen , such as the fungal disease ophiostoma , carried by the elm bark beetle ( scolytus scolytus ) , which saw habitat expansion with clearance for agriculture ( 72 ) .", "new chronometric data are revealing the rapidity with which prehistoric extinctions sometimes unfolded ( 80 ) . new zealand saw numerous vertebrate extinctions after polynesian arrival ( e . g . , refs . 80 and 92 ) , including the elimination of various species of moa ( dinornis ) within two centuries of human colonization ( 97 ) . recent studies of sea lion and penguin adna show that several new zealand species once thought to have survived early human impacts were extirpated soon after human arrival and replaced within a few centuries by nonindigenous lineages from the subantarctic region ( 98 ) .", "extinction and extirpation rates underestimate human impacts because not all species under pressure went extinct . although hawaiian geese ( branta sandvicensis ) , unlike other species , survived the prehistoric colonization of hawaii by humans , adna research points to a drastic reduction in their genetic diversity after human arrival ( 99 ) . zooarchaeological data from the caribbean point to the overharvesting and decline of a variety of island marine species beginning \u223c2 , 000 y ago , with biomass , mean trophic level , and average size all radically altered ( 86 ) . research on california\u2019s channel islands points to similar impacts on a broad range of marine animals as a result of overexploitation by prehistoric hunter - gatherers ( 81 , 82 ) , patterns increasingly recognized on islands around the world .", "by the middle to late holocene , agriculture and the production of food surpluses paved the way for the emergence of larger human populations , increasingly dense , urbanized settlements , and more complex and intensive networks of trade , travel , and dispersal in many parts of the world . cultural niche construction became intense and elaborate , with dramatic implications for species diversity and distributions .", "multidisciplinary datasets reveal that agricultural intensification , in response to factors like growing populations and emerging markets , was a major driver of ecological change across the old world from the bronze age onwards ( 100 ) . in the near east , bronze age datasets reveal pervasive turnover from deciduous to evergreen oak and replacement of indigenous forest with cultivated orchard crops like olive ( olea europea ) , grape ( vitis vinifera ) , and fig ( ficus carica ) ( e . g . , refs . 101 and 102 ) . cereal crops and vegetation indicative of grazing and other anthropogenic disturbance ( e . g . , rumex , plantago , and artemisia ) increased . archaeological study of wood charcoal points to a decline in tree taxa richness from the middle bronze age to the late iron age ( 103 ) . by 1000 b . c . e . , one archaeologically tested model suggests that 80\u201385 % of areas suited to agriculture in much of the near east were cultivated ( 104 ) .", "similar trends can be seen for all early urban societies that have been studied . increased deforestation , linked to agricultural intensification and urbanization in the iron age , is evident in diverse sedimentary and paleoecological records in china ( e . g . , refs . 105 and 106 ) . european and near eastern landscapes in the roman period also saw significant transformation , with expansion of cultivation into previously marginal areas , growth of the cash crop industry , and a new emphasis on high yield agro - pastoralism ( 100 ) . sedimentary sequences across the eastern mediterranean record the highest holocene rates of soil erosion and sedimentation during the classical era ( 102 ) . population growth and political expansion in lowland mayan civilization have been linked to forest removal and erosion ( 107 , 108 ) .", "deforestation and the expansion of species favoring anthropogenic disturbance were not continual processes , and many sequences reveal temporary reversals in these long - term trends . for example , the arrival of plague in europe at several points from the late neolithic onwards , as now confirmed by recovery of yersinia pestis adna from human skeletons ( 69 , 109 ) , seems to have been linked to episodes of forest regrowth due to abandonment of agricultural fields ( 104 , 110 ) . by the iron age and sometimes earlier , however , changing species compositions were often irreversible . recent multidisciplinary research in \u201cancient\u201d forests in france demonstrated a strong correlation between roman sites and present - day forest plant diversity , with areas altered by roman agriculture and settlement favoring nitrogen - demanding and ruderal species ( e . g . , refs . 50 and 51 ) ( fig . 2 c ) . grassland diversity in present - day estonia maps closely to late iron age human population density ( 111 ) .", "a review of global archaeological , paleoecological , and historical datasets , distilled here into key trends and examples , suggests a number of general patterns concerning the long - term human shaping of biodiversity . first , human niche construction activities have had a major impact on the abundance , composition , distribution , and genetic diversity\u2014as well as extinction rates and translocation pathways\u2014of species globally . late pleistocene human impacts are the most difficult to assess , but , placed in the context of longer - term trends , they seem highly likely , especially given that even conservative estimates of anthropogenic contribution to megafaunal extinctions , extirpations , and depletions imply significant ecosystem impacts ( 38 , 47 ) .", "second , there is a strong link between present - day patterns of biodiversity and historical processes ( fig . 2 ) . the combined effects of human activity over the millennia include the creation of extensively altered , highly cosmopolitan species assemblages on all landmasses . \u201cpristine\u201d landscapes simply do not exist and , in most cases , have not existed for millennia . most landscapes are palimpsests shaped by repeated episodes of human activity over multiple millennia ( 5 , 36 , 100 ) .", "third , there is widespread evidence for increasing rates of human - mediated species translocation , extinction , and ecosystem and biodiversity reshaping through time . this acceleration is not constant but is characterized by pulses and pauses that reflect cultural , ecological , and climatic transformations at local , regional , and global scales . these changes have increasingly concentrated biomass into particular sets of human - favored plants and animals ( 134 ) .", "fourth , archaeological and paleoecological data are critical to identifying and understanding the deep history and pervasiveness of such human impacts ( 6 , 36 , 135 ) . ecologists and other researchers are often insufficiently aware of archaeological and other historical datasets . the continued default position among many researchers is that a landscape or seascape that does not have obvious , contemporary human alterations has experienced little human manipulation ( 136 ) . in fact , as exemplified by the revelation of dense prehistoric human settlements in parts of the amazon , the more appropriate default expectation is one of anthropogenic transformation , regardless of how pristine a modern landscape may superficially seem .", "finally , negative consequences of human activity , such as extinction , reduced biodiversity , and habitat destruction , tend to receive more attention from researchers than examples of resilience and sustainability ( 100 ) , probably because these transformations are more dramatic and visible in the archaeological record ( 137 ) . the anthropogenic reshaping of species distributions , however , has been central to the creation of landscapes capable of supporting increasingly dense human populations through time . domesticated ecosystems enhance human food supplies , reduce exposure to predators and natural dangers , and promote commerce ( 138 ) . the creation of novel ecosystems ( 139 ) has enabled the provision of ecological goods and services , not just in the modern era but throughout the holocene and in the late pleistocene as well ( 5 , 100 , 140 ) .", "another important consideration is the role of human niche construction as a major evolutionary force on the planet . processes of human niche creation have reshaped , and continue to influence , the evolutionary trajectories of a broad array of species . except for studies of domestication and antibiotic / pesticide resistance , however , investigation into processes of gene - culture coevolution has otherwise minimally explored the role of human culture in driving evolution in nonhuman species . however , human activities have exerted novel selection pressures that have had important evolutionary consequences not just for humans but also for the rest of the natural world ( 143 ) .", "we thank ardern hulme -

resistant uapaca bojeri and the genus sarcolaena . the shrub layer consists of asteraceae , rubiaceae , and leguminosae . there are also some endemic kalanchoe and aloe species .", "biodiversity features this ecoregion is similar to others in madagascar in that most natural vegetation cover has been destroyed . the remaining small and isolated patches or distinctly larger blocks are biodiversity \" jewels \" essential for a variety endemic species .", "current status the remaining natural habitats of the central highlands are extremely fragmented except for the zone spanning its eastern edge and the upper portion of the eastern escarpment . on the central highlands proper , the few patches of natural vegetation continue to be fragmented by grassland fires . habitats of the ecoregion are partially protected with the remaining central highland forests of ambohijanahary and ambohitantely being protected areas and the eastern slopes of andringitra and the upper slopes of ranomafana being national parks . however , the degree to which the protected areas can maintain and manage the integrity of these habitats varies . lack of resources , inadequate training and limited personnel , in addition to the absence of clear management plans , all contribute to the difficulty of preventing habitat destruction within the reserves .", "types and severity of threats remaining patches of forest and woodlands of the central highlands face continuous and intensive pressure from encroaching agriculture , increasing exploitation by growing human populations , and fire . introduced plants and animals are affecting the integrity of habitats . nearly all of the ecoregion has been modified either directly or indirectly by humans ( see lowry et al . 1997 ) .", "justification of ecoregion delineation the madagascar subhumid forest , located in central madagascar , is based on cornet\u2019s subhumid bioclimatic division ( cornet 1974 ) , with the eastern boundary delineated at 800 m elevation and the western boundary delineated at 600 m elevation . although the western boundary differs from humbert\u2019s vegetation map ( humbert 1959 ) , the 600 m contour better reflects climatic patterns which distinguish moist evergreen forest from dry deciduous forest ( schatz per . comm . ) . the ecoregion also includes disjunct subhumid areas such as mt . d\u2019ambre in the north and the analavelona and isalo massifs in the southwest .", "references burney , d . a . 1997 . theories and facts regarding holocene environmental change before and after human colonization . in natural change and human impact in madagascar , eds . s . m . goodman and b . d . patterson , pp . 75 -

water pools and streams on enderby island , auckland island , and campbell island , at places not far above sea - level . these specimens differed from the type in having the palm of the second gnathopod in the male oblique instead of transverse , and prove to be the same as c . subtenuis sayce , a species found in new south wales , victoria , and western australia .", "in december , 1922 , i found two specimens , male and female , in coitu , in a small fresh -

jointed , as in hyalella , so that the characters of the genus require further modification .", "from brackish water at cape town , south africa , barnard has described chiltonia capensis , which has no palp on the first maxilla and has the third uropod single - jointed , but differs in having the two gnathopods alike in both sexes\u2014thus requiring another modification of the characters of the genus .", "the presence of very similar species in fresh and brackish waters in new zealand , australia , south america , and south africa is important from a zoogeographical standpoint , and it is desirable that a careful comparison of the species in question should be made .", "this species is now known to be widely spread over the southern portions of otago and southland , it has been recorded from swampy hill ( near dunedin ) , from the old man range , from the neighbourhood of invercargill , from ruapuke island , and i have recently collected it in abundance from several localities at drummond and otautau in southland . in these places it lives in ditches and small streams on the various weeds that grow in the water , in much the same way as the ordinary fresh - water paracalliope fluviatilis does , though this species was not found by me in the same ditches . with p . caeruleus there was , however , the other species , p . subterraneus , but it was usually found a little deeper down , either on the surface of the mud or actually in the mud . p . caeruleus is slightly smaller than p . subterraneus , and can readily be distinguished by its dark - blue colour . most of the specimens are so darkly coloured that they appear black , but some are paler , especially on the appendages .", "the differences in structure from some of the forms of p . subterraneus are few and unimportant . the one that seems most constant is in the telson ,", "which is evenly rounded posteriorly and free from setules ; its upper surface is slightly convex ; the third uropods have the branches not much longer than the peduncle ( fig . 2 , urp 3 ) and , when seen in side view , slightly", "curved upwards ; the gnathopoda are rather more slender than in p . subterraneus , with the armature of the palm somewhat different , the propod bearing crenulate markings at the point where the finger impinges , and the finger having numerous setules towards the extremity ( see figs . 2 , gn 1 * , gn 2 * ) .", "the structure of p . subterraneus was somewhat fully dealt with by me in 1894 so far as the underground forms were concerned . it will only be necessary to mention now a few of the points in which differences occur in specimens from other localities . in all specimens the gnathopoda are of similar shape , the first stouter than the second ; in the eyreton specimens the palm of the first is minutely crenulate , but it is even in these from surface waters in southland . the appearance of the third uropod varies when seen from the side or from above . fig . 4 shows those of a specimen from eketahuna , fig . urp 3 being one of the pair seen from above , fig . urp 3 * the other from the side ; the branches are not much longer than the base , on the latter there is usually a small tuft of setules at the upper distal angle , and two or three separately placed on each upper margin . in specimens from southland streams the tuft at the distal", "angle may be larger , and there is sometimes a smaller but distinct tuft about the middle of the upper outer margin ( see fig . 6 ) . the telson is a flat oblong plate with lateral margins nearly straight , posterior corners narrowly rounded , and each usually bearing a single small setule , the posterior margin slightly concave . all these characters , and especially the last , are subject to modification even in individuals from the same locality ; thus one from wells at ashburton has the posterior margin much more deeply concave , and one corner without a setule ( fig . 7 ) .", "in the \u201cclippings\u201d and mount dick specimens the telson differs markedly from the more typical forms . the lateral margins are distinctly convex , the telson itself shorter and broader , the posterior margin deeply concave , and there are three or four setules at each corner and two or three more anteriorly placed on the lateral margin ( see figs . 8 and 9 ) .", "differently formed . the ordinary form is undoubtedly a female , being often found with eggs or young in the brood - pouch , and i looked upon the form with the large peculiar gnathopoda as the male . it differs so much , however , that it is not surprising that stebbing says ( 1906 , p . 295 ) ,", "\u201cthe supposed male is uncertain in respect to sex and to identity with the species . \u201d unfortunately i have seen very few specimens of the supposed male , and have now records of four only . one was dissected for use in drawing up the description i gave in 1894 and i have now", "gnathopods between those of the female and the fully developed male . unfortunately this was not the case , for its gnathopoda , though smaller and less bountifully supplied with spinules ( fig . 3 , gn 1 and gn 2 ) , are essentially the same as those figured in 1894 .", "i still feel convinced that the specimens in question are really males of p . subterraneus , for they are closely similar in all the characters except", "those that may be looked upon as secondary male characters ; none of them bears eggs , and it seems unlikely that there should be two species living in the underground waters drawn upon by the one well , that many dozens of specimens of one species , all females , have been obtained , but of the other only less than half a dozen and these all males . it must be mentioned , however , that among the numerous specimens of p . subterraneus examined from other localities i have seen no similar males ; it is , of course , possible that some may have been overlooked , for the gnathopoda are more or less concealed by the deep side - plates .", "i give figures of the telson and uropoda of p . subterraneus from different localities . it will be seen that there is considerable variation , just as there is in the subterranean forms of niphargus in europe , and that in consequence there is room for much difference of opinion as to the number of \u201cspecies\u201d into which they should be divided . in new zealand the subterranean species is also found in surface waters , most of these specimens being still colourless and apparently blind ; though some\u2014viz . , those from \u201cclippings\u201d and mount dick\u2014are found at great heights above sea -

[ 14 ] , cordyceps remained a big genus placed in family clavicipitaceae of order hypocreales . however , phylogenetic studies showed that neither cordyceps nor clavicipitaceae was monophyletic [ 14 \u2013 18 ] and hence cordyceps was segregated into several phylogenetic genera within three families of hypocreales [ 14 ] . according to the phylogenetic classification , cordyceps is now restricted to the clade containing the type species c . militaris , circumscribed to cordycipitaceae [ 14 ] . newly segregated genera ophiocordyceps and elaphocordyceps were placed under another family ophiocordycipitaceae ; the other two genera metacordyceps and tyrannicordyceps remained in clavicipitaceae sensu stricto [ 14 , 19 ] .", "following the recent revision in the international code of nomenclature for algae , fungi , and plants ( icn ) , elaphocordyceps is now synonymized with tolypocladium [ 20 ] and metacordyceps with metarhizium [ 21 ] . drechmeria , podocrella , polycephalomyces , and sphaerocordyceps are other genera that consist of members that were formerly described under cordyceps . cordyceps along with the newly segregated genera is linked to many asexual insect - pathogenic genera distributed in all three families clavicipitaceae s . s . , cordycipitaceae , and ophiocordycipitaceae [ 4 , 14 , 20 ] . further synonymizations of genera are recently proposed within ophiocordycipitaceae following icn [ 22 ] .", "the host range of cordyceps in classical sense is very broad and includes several orders ( coleoptera , lepidoptera , hymenoptera , hemiptera , orthoptera , araneae , diptera , blattodea , mantodea , dermaptera , odonata , phasmatodea , etc . ) . based on the published literature , nearly 60 % of the species of cordyceps sensu lato are recorded on two orders coleoptera and lepidoptera . the other major host orders are hymenoptera , hemiptera , orthoptera , and araneae . the majority of hosts ( more than 95 % ) in lepidoptera ( moths , butterflies ) and coleoptera ( beetle ) are larvae ; the rest are adults or pupae , making the host identification difficult . in contrast , majority of hosts in other orders are adults such as spiders ( araneae ) , fly ( diptera ) , ant , bee , and wasp ( hymenoptera ) , grasshopper , locust , and cricket ( orthoptera ) , cicada , bug , scale - insect , and coccid ( hemiptera ) , cockroach and termite ( blattodea ) , mantis ( mantodea ) , earwig ( dermaptera ) , dragonfly ( odonata ) , and stick - insect ( phasmatodea ) . why lepidopterans and coleopterans are mostly susceptible at larval stage while other orders are more susceptible at adult stage is not well understood .", "cordyceps fungi range in habitat from aerial to epigeal to subterranean ones [ 74 ] , based on their respective host species . when the host stage is adult , they grow on exposed environments such as leaf litter or are attached to some plant parts such as leaf and branch and in contrast to the larval or pupal stages that are buried in soil ( hypogeal ) or on wood up to nearly 50 cm , for example , o . longissima [ 75 ] and o . xuefengensis [ 76 ] . ophiocordyceps caloceroides that is buried in the soil more than 50 cm is exceptional which grows on adult spiders [ 77 ] .", "the pathogenic fungi sometimes produce parasite manipulated behaviors on hosts , such as death grip or biting behavior [ 78 \u2013 80 ] . some of the parasitized ants always bite lower side veins but never the laminar blade or the upper surface [ 79 , 80 ] . similarly , some species of ants are attached to lower side of twigs whereas others are found attached to leaves [ 81 ] . in other cases , aphids , ants , grasshoppers , planthoppers , flies , and so forth shift to elevated position at the time of dying , known as summit disease [ 82 , 83 ] .", "in this review , we present brief introductions of coleoptera and lepidoptera and their major subgroups parasitized by cordyceps fungi . we hope the present review will serve as a reference for researchers and scholars to get a quick look at coleopteran and lepidopteran hosts of cordyceps spp .", "we accumulated host information from published literature and analysed the hosts that belonged to coleoptera and lepidoptera . we found that hosts of only 60 % of cordyceps fungi are known at family or genus / species ranks ; the rest are known only at the order rank and hence no further discussions of the hosts could be done for them . hence , in this review , we dealt with only those hosts that are known at family or infrafamily ranks within coleoptera and lepidoptera and tried to analyse the major taxonomic subgroups that are associated with cordyceps fungi . we also analysed the host stage among coleopteran and lepidopteran hosts based on published literature .", "coleoptera is currently the most species -

gherardi & vannini , 1989 ) . the adaptative meaning of the clustering behavior was largely investigated by gherardi & vannini ( 1992 , 1993 ) . it is supposed that clusters serve as \" shell exchange markets \" or places were males and females can locate themselves easily . however , clustering may be a response to environmental factors , such as desiccation ( reese , 1969 ; gherardi & vannini , 1993 ) , and habitat heterogeneity ( snyder - conn , 1981 ; turra et al . in press ) .", "the aim of this study was to describe the clustering behavior of hermit crabs in the brazilian coast , focusing cluster size ( number of individuals per cluster ) , species composition , and shell utilization pattern . comparisons of populational parameters and shell adequacy and condition between clustered and scattered individuals were used as evidences to discuss theories on the factors that regulate the clustering behavior in the area of study .", "this study was conducted from september to december 1994 at the grande beach ( 45 o 24 ' w ; 23 o 49 ' s ) , s\u00e3o sebasti\u00e3o , northern coast of s\u00e3o paulo state , brazil . the area of study is an intertidal habitat of 160 m 2 composed by cobbles and boulders irregularly arranged forming natural refuges , holes and crevices . the tides are semidiurnal with maximal variation of 2 meters .", "twenty two quadrats of 1 m 2 were sorted in the area of study in order to evaluate the dispersion pattern and the activity of the hermit crabs during low tide . a dispersion index was calculated to access the pattern of distribution of hermit crabs ( elliott , 1977 ) . active individuals were those that were feeding or walking . each quadrat was characterized in relation to air exposure ( total or partial ) or submersion ( presence of tide pools ) . hermit crabs and their shells were identified and the number and size of clusters ( number of individuals present in each cluster ) were registered . shell adequacy and condition were also evaluated .", "the shell adequacy to the hermit crabs was evaluated using a visual index modified from abrams ( 1978 ) : 1 . hermit crab not visible ; 2 . pereopods visible but chelipeds not ; 3 . angle of 90 o between chelipeds and the plan of the shell aperture ; 4 . obtuse angle between chelipeds and the plan of the shell aperture ; 5 . chelipeds closing the aperture ; 6 . shield exposed . the shell condition was recorded using a modification of the condition index proposed by mcclintock ( 1985 ) . this index evaluates the degree of incrustation ( 1 . shell not incrusted ; 2 . until 50 % incrusted ; 3 . 50 % to 100 % incrusted ) and of physical damage in the shells used by the hermit crabs ( a . perfect ; b . perforations and / or less than 4 mm of the aperture damaged ; c . more than 4 mm of the aperture damaged and / or apex broken ) .", "in order to compare the size distribution between clustered and scattered individuals , three 0 . 50 m wide transects were sampled during the low tide . the crabs were classified as clustered ( 5 or more individuals ) or scattered , removed from their shells , and sized ( shield length ) with a milimetric ocular under stereomicroscope . cluster size was also recorded . the two - way anova and the log - likelihood g test were both performed with a 0 . 05 significance level ( zar , 1984 ) .", "the dispersion pattern of the crabs was contiguous ( i = 621 . 130 , d = 28 . 84 , df = 21 , p < 0 . 001 ) , and greatly influenced by the distribution of c . antillensis . most of the hermit crabs were present in clusters ( 70 . 88 % , g [ 1 ] = 46 . 96 , p < 0 . 001 ) , that were more frequently found in air exposed areas ( 14 clusters out of 15 ) . most of the aggregates ( 11 ) were monospecific , composed only by individuals of c . antillensis ( 10 ) or of p . criniticornis ( 1 cluster composed by 6 individuals in a tide pool ) . polyspecific clusters were dominated by c . antillensis but also presented individuals of p . tortugae , p . criniticornis and / or c . tibicen . the clusters composed or dominated by c . antillensis presented 5 to 42 individuals ( n = 14 , 12 . 78 \u00b1 10 . 29 individuals ) .", "the activity pattern of the hermit crabs was studied only during low tide . scattered and clustered individuals exposed to the air were inactive , differently from some isolated and submerged ones ( 3 individuals ) in tide pools . some isolated hermit crabs , exposed to the air and out of refuges , presented their shells with the aperture turned upward .", "in the transects 31 males and 27 females ( 14 ovigerous , 44 . 44 % ) of c . antillensis were collected ( table 1 ) . both males and females were more frequently found in clusters than isolated ( females : g [ 1 ] = 14 . 85 , p < 0 . 001 ; males : g [ 1 ] = 3 . 98 , p < 0 . 05 ) . size showed to be more dependent on the behavioral situation of the crabs ( clustered or scattered ) than on their sex , although males were sligthly larger than females ( table 1 ) .", "shell utilization differed between clustered and scattered individuals of c . antillensis ( g [ 5 ] = 262 . 14 , p < 0 . 001 ) ( fig . 1 ) . shells of tegula viridula ( gmelin , 1791 ) were more frequently occupied by scattered individuals , while shells of stramonita ( = thais ) haemastoma ( linnaeus , 1797 ) , morula nodulosa ( c . b . adams , 1845 ) , leucozonia nassa ( gmelin , 1791 ) , and cerithium atratum ( born , 1778 ) were used mainly by the scattered ones .", "shell adequacy and incrustation also differed between clustered and scattered individuals ( table 2 ) . shells were more adequate and incrusted for isolated than clustered crabs .", "physical damage did not show any relationship with the behavioral situation ( clustered or scattered ) of the crabs ( table 2 ) . shell adequacy also seemed to be dependent on the shell type ( g [ 16 ] = 33 . 65 , p = 0 . 006 ) , with shells of t . viridula and c . atratum presenting better adequacy than shells of s . haemastoma , l . nassa , and m . nodulosa ( fig . 2 ) .", "as expected , all hermit crabs that were exposed to the air were inactive , even those that were clustered and in refuges . at low tide the hermit crabs store water inside their shells and occupy moist microhabitats to avoid the lack of oxygen and the risks of desiccation ( gherardi et al . , 1989 ) . inactive and scattered individuals of c . antillensis presented the aperture of their shells turned upward . this behavior results in a higher retention of water inside the shell as suggested by reese ( 1969 ) , thus enhancing their resistence to long time exposure periods . active individuals were registered only in tide pools . in this way , the activity pattern can be related to the easier locomotion in water due to the lightening of the shells ( gherardi et al . , 1989 ) , and to the physical stress imposed by the air exposure situation .", "scattered individuals of c . antillensis were larger than clustered ones , as also showed in other studies with other species ( hazlett , 1966 ; gherardi & vannini , 1989 ; gherardi , 1991 ) . small individuals have a greater surface / volume ratio and are more susceptible to desiccation than the large ones ( gherardi & vannini , 1992 , 1993 ) . thus , clustering might also serve to reduce the risk of desiccation as also suggested by reese ( 1969 ) and snyder - conn ( 1981 ) .", "both males and females of this c . antillensis population occurred mainly in clusters , and 44 , 44 % of the females were ovigerous . these results support the hypothesis that clusters may serve as places where males can easily find females ( gherardi & vannini , 1992 , 1993 ) . in addition , clustering may also protect ovigerous females and their eggs from desiccation .", "the pattern of shell utilization of hermit crabs is frequently associated with shell availability as can be seen in this area ( leite et al . , 1998 ) , with c . antillensis occupying mainly shells of tegula viridula . however , scattered individuals of c . antillensis used shells of t . viridula in higher frequencies than do clustered ones , probably because these shells presented higher adequacy than the others , as also recorded in other studies ( gherardi , 1991 ; gherardi & vannini , 1993 ) . in addition , shells used by the scattered individuals of c . antillensis presented better adequacy , and higher incrustation and adequacy than that used by the clustered supporting the hypothesis that clusters may serve as \" shells exchange markets \" ( gherardi & vannini , 1993 ) .", "the small size of clusters in this area also seemed to be associated with the high availability of empty gastropod shells in this area ( leite et al . , 1998 ) . in this way , a high shell availability may indicate a good shell adequacy to this population , thus not forcing the crabs to look for new ones in dense aggregations .", "the meaning of the clustering behavior is still controversal and doubtfull . it is more parsimonious and reasonable to think that many selective forces , such as shell limitation ( behavioral factor ) and environmental stress ( physical factor ) are influencing together the clustering behavior in hermit crabs . to evaluate the role of each factor in the cluster formation it is needed a fully experimental study , isolating all possible factors to test one each time .", "acknowledgments \u0097 we wish to thank fapesp ( funda\u00e7\u00e3o de amparo \u00e0 pesquisa no estado de s\u00e3o paulo ) by the fellowship n o 93 / 2439 - 4 , and cebimar - usp ( centro de biologia marinha da universidade de s\u00e3o paulo ) for logistic support . giuliano buz\u00e1 jacobucci and ant\u00f4nio carlos cruz macedo revised the manuscript .", "elliott , j . m . , 1977 , some methods for the statistical analysis of samples of benthic invertebrates .", "hazlett , b . , 1966 , social behavior of the paguridae and diogenidae of cura\u00e7ao .", "leite , f . p . p . , turra , a . & gandolfi , s . m . , 1998 , hermit crabs ( crustacea , decapoda , anomura ) , gastropod shells and environmental structure : their relationship in southeastern brazil .", "snyder - conn , e . , 1980 , tidal clustering and dispersal of the hermit crab", "snyder - conn , e . , 1981 , the adaptive significance of clustering in the hermit crab", "turra , a . , jacobucci , g . b . , ara\u00fajo , f . m . p . & leite , f . p . p .

why do rainbow shark have gills ? gills enable the rainbow shark to breathe . gills consist of thin sheets of tissue containing blood vessels . as water passes over the gills oxygen is absorbed into the blood stream carbon dioxide passes out into the water . the gills are protected by a large bony plate called an operculum . some fish species however have lungs and breathe air . interesting facts and information - why do the rainbow shark have fins ? a fin is an external appendage or \" limb \" of a fish . fins are used for directing , stabilizing , or propelling the different fish species in water . numbers of fins vary between fish species , but there are usually seven . each of the fins on a fish are designed to perform a specific function :", "i have a 3 ft x 2 ft x 1 ft tank and have 25 fish in it . i have 2 rainbow shark , 2 silver shark , 10 gold fish , 2 angel , 4 bido , 4 red caps . they all are small to medium size . is the combination and quantity ok ?", "this page is dedicated to raising rainbow sharks , the main focus is forum with questions , answers and experiences ! we ' d love to hear about your rainbow shark , so before leaving this page tell us your story -

december 1848 and there , too , the officers of the militia had a hand in starting the sport . the first races in dunedin were held on 23 march 1849 as part of the anniversary day celebrations , with the eccentric dr manning a prominent owner . following the gold discoveries in the province , otago was , for a time , the strongest racing centre in new zealand . the celebrations on the first anniversary of the canterbury settlement on 16 december 1851 included four horse races over a course in hagley park facing the road running from the riccarton hotel to the fendalton bridge . the course was still in its native tussock . there was also early racing on the west coast and in taranaki ; but not in hawke ' s bay ( a district later to play an important part in new zealand racing ) until 1 january 1857 .", "this information was published in 1966 in an encyclopaedia of new zealand , edited by a . h . mclintock . it has not been corrected and will not be updated .", "a hurdle race was run on the first anniversary of nelson \u201cthrough fern and flax , up hill and down hill\u201d . nelson first placed racing on a sound footing . there was a good course , with thoroughbreds imported for racing and breeding , and horses trained and brought out to race in something like \u201ccondition\u201d . the course was at stoke , 4 miles from nelson . it was first used on 3 february 1845 .", "the early race meetings in the colony were controlled by local committees elected for the meeting only , generally at a public meeting of interested citizens . those elected made the arrangements , drew up the rules , and appointed the officials . in the larger towns the establishment of a racing club generally followed . these local clubs had their own locally varying rules , but based in common on those of the english jockey club . until the late 1860s each club was a separate identity , with little coordination because of the difficulties of travel and communication . consequently , disqualifications imposed by one club would not apply at another . the first attempts to introduce some form of unified control were made by the metropolitan clubs , a rather grandiose title for the times . it is not clear how certain clubs came to be so designated and to assume a limited control over the racing within their districts . but the metropolitan clubs of the 1860s and early 1870s did correspond with the main towns of the provincial districts . it is possible that there was some direction given from the colonial secretary at wellington , since at that time permits for race meetings were issued by his office , and programmes in each district were approved by the resident magistrate . in early minute books there are instances of the resident magistrate referring programmes back to the metropolitan club because they had not first had that body ' s approval . so probably the sheer need for a responsible body to give guidance on those matters and to settle disputes forced the metropolitan clubs to act as a miniature jockey club .", "after racing had been established for 30 years , the metropolitan clubs realised the need for some governing body to obtain uniform rules of racing and a uniform scale of weights . the first recorded move was made by the canterbury jockey club in 1875 and , on 11 november 1876 , during the course of the canterbury jockey club race meetings , a meeting of delegates resolved \u201cthat it was desirable to establish a new zealand jockey club , to frame rules and make a scale of weights to be used by all clubs running under the rules\u201d . there was obviously some dissatisfaction at the time , for in 1877 the canterbury jockey club resolved to recognise only the dunedin , wellington , auckland , and hawke ' s bay clubs . this made wanganui and taranaki hostile .", "the first truly constructive move came from the hawke ' s bay jockey club which , on 12 july 1883 , decided to set up a subcommittee , consisting of captain w . r . russell ( later to be the first president of the racing conference ) , r . u . burke , and c . b . winter ( the mover of the proposal ) , \u201cto consider the establishment of a new zealand racing association , and the drafting of rules for same , and that the matter be submitted to the clubs already mentioned and the taranaki and wanganui jockey clubs , which were to be the metropolitan clubs for the proposed districts the colony would be divided into\u201d . the proposal also suggested the monthly publication of a racing calendar , the registration of colours , and a turf register .", "the only record of this meeting is a letter addressed by the chairman to the colonial secretary . the letter declared that the purpose of the meeting was to help racing as a whole , pointed out certain advantages to the country in using the totalisator confined within its lawful limits , and suggested ways of controlling the totalisator and of encouraging the breeding industry . the colonial secretary ' s reply pointed out to the chairman that legislation would be necessary to give metropolitan clubs a defined and legal status under the gaming and lotteries act before the suggestions could be acted on . the colonial secretary proposed that the delegates ' recommendations could best be carried out by formulating them in a bill , which might then be introduced into either house of the legislature by some member interested in racing . no bill has ever been introduced ; the authority of the racing conference is still not enforced by statute .", "from 1887 to 1891 metropolitan club representatives met every year and sometimes twice a year , with some meetings being attended by representatives of the greymouth , nelson , and marlborough clubs . many of the early meetings were held in parliament buildings , and several of those early delegates were members of either the house of representatives or the legislative council . the hon . g . mclean , m . l . c . , chaired the first meeting and , except for the hon . j . d . ormond , the hon . w . r . russell ( who became a member of the house of representatives ) chaired all the other early meetings . f . d . luckie , of hawke ' s bay , became the conference secretary . the hon . e . mitchelson , the hon . o . samuel , dr earle , freeman r . jackson , r . h . nolan , francis henry dillon bell , and , above all , sir george clifford , were prominent in helping the racing conference to gain its high standing as quickly as it did .", "in 1897 r . h . nolan succeeded in having adopted his scheme for appeals against decisions of metropolitan clubs ' committees being heard by three appeal judges appointed by the president . this system was acclaimed at the time and has stood the test of the present day . the first appeal was heard in 1898 , the judges being dr earle , geo . hunter , and nolan .", "in 1899 it had been decided that country clubs be allowed two representatives on metropolitan committees . the registration of all racing clubs was enforced in 1900 . a most important step for owners was the institution of accident fees in 1903 . an accident fund for trainers , jockeys , and stablehands was established to relieve owners of their liability under the statutory provisions of the employers ' liability and like acts . the jockeys ' and trainers ' provident funds controlled by each metropolitan committee continued , but on a gradually changing basis .", "when the first world war broke out , the racing conference was pressed first to stop all racing , and then to reduce the number of race days . following the lead given in england , racing continued , but in 1917 a special committee agreed with the government to reduce race days by a third . the racing clubs were soon active contributors to the various war funds , and a number of courses were taken over for military purposes , notably wellington ( trentham ) , wairarapa , and manawatu .", "in 1921 the appointment of racecourse inspectors was agreed to , the first appointments being a . ward , r . g . black , f . cullen , and j . torrance . all were ex - police officers . through the work of the racecourse inspectors ( who cooperate closely with the police ) , the racecourses in new zealand are kept remarkably free of undesirables and prohibited persons . the independent licensing of trainers and jockeys by each metropolitan district committee also ended in 1921 , when a licensing committee was appointed and all licences issued by the racing conference . the southland metropolitan committee was created in 1925 , all clubs in the southland province being separated from the otago district .", "from 1898 the affairs of the racing conference had been administered from christchurch . with the growth of racing after the first world war it was decided that the headquarters should be more central . in 1930 they were moved to wellington . the constitution of the conference was altered in 1928 when the executive committee was formed . this first consisted of the president , vice - president , and six representatives , but in 1929 this was changed to include one representative of each metropolitan district . the licensing committee and the dates committee were abolished in 1933 and their duties taken over by the executive committee .", "racing fell off during the depression of the 1930s . the racing conference was faced with many difficulties because of the plight of some of the smaller country clubs . some became defunct and their permits were taken up by other clubs . race days were again reduced during the second world war and many racecourses were taken over by the military . the restricted racing and lack of transport raised many problems , as the number of horses in training was not reduced , nor was there any loss of interest in race meetings . these were often held under great difficulties because of the military occupation of the courses being raced on . in the later years of the war the executive committee sanctioned race meetings to raise patriotic funds .", "the conference considerably advanced steps in the interests of racing and the national bloodstock breeding industry when it set up its \u201cdope detection\u201d scheme in 1953 . racing expanded quickly in the auckland province ( especially in the waikato district ) with the great increase of population there . this led to the formation of the waikato metropolitan district in 1949 by the division of the auckland metropolitan district , then by far the largest and strongest in new zealand . there have been no changes in the metropolitan districts since . in 1962 the conference for the first time had its own building , in farish street , wellington .", "thus racing in new zealand is now controlled by the new zealand racing conference , which , consistent with its origin , is an association of the clubs registered under its rules . the racing conference does not run race meetings , as it is a purely legislative and administrative body . the year - to - year administration is done by an executive committee elected annually and comprising the president and vice - president , ex - officio , and one representative of each of the 10 metropolitan racing districts of new zealand . delegates of racing clubs meet annually in wellington in july , when legislative matters are dealt with by way of remits from the executive committee , district committees , or clubs . the racing conference registers all horses , issues all licences , administers the general trust fund ( accident fund ) , and publishes the new zealand stud book and the new zealand racing calendar . the secretary is the principal executive officer , and a staff of stipendiary stewards and racecourse inspectors attend all race meetings .", "in each metropolitan racing district a district committee generally supervises the racing in its district whether the meetings are run by totalisator , non - totalisator , or sports clubs . each district committee comprises one representative of each district totalisator club and an equal number of representatives of the senior club , which is known as the metropolitan club . each district committee must approve all programmes in its district and consider all applications for dates and licences before they are submitted with recommendations to the racing conference . it also hears all appeals against the decisions of racing club judicial committees and reviews all penalties imposed by the latter .", "there are 71 racing clubs and 17 hunt clubs authorised to use the totalisator and a total of 259 days allocated to racing . all racing clubs are non - proprietary , and the committee and the stewards of each are elected from the club members . each racing club runs its own affairs and its own race meeting . on race day , the committee or the stewards ( or sometimes both according to the club ' s constitution ) control the meeting , and all judicial matters are dealt with by a judicial committee appointed by the club . this committee must investigate all matters submitted to it by a stipendiary steward or racecourse inspector , neither of whom has any judicial powers . most racing clubs own their own racecourses . hunt clubs do not , and they are not individually represented on a district committee .", "how to cite this page : ' history - establishment and administration ' , from an encyclopaedia of new zealand , edited by a . h . mclintock ,

green coloration ( fig . 1 ) . they are roughly the same size to slightly smaller than a honey bee , usually about 1 . 3 cm in length . the wing membranes are darkened , but transparent . green orchid bees are very fast and agile flyers , and can be seen quickly darting from flower to flower separated by long periods of hovering . as with most bees in florida , females possess a stinger and males do not . although females can sting , they are quite timid in doing so . the sting itself is less painful than that of a honey bee , though unlike honey bees they can sting repeatedly .", "green orchid bees are most likely to be confused with metallic members of the bee family halictidae ( sweat bees ) . however , orchid bees can easily be identified by their long tongues , which are roughly two thirds as long as their bodies . in contrast , sweat bees have quite short tongues in comparison to their bodies . female orchid bees have corbiculae ( pollen baskets ) on their hind legs , in which they store collected pollen in order to provision their young ( figs . 2 , 3bc ) . though males lack corbiculae , they have characteristic enlarged hind tibiae ( fig . 3a ) . these unusual structures have a hole on the outer side , which provides access to the spongy compartment within . these unusual structures play an important role in the storage of fragrant , aromatic compounds which male orchid bees collect from their environment .", "figure 3 . hind legs of male ( a ) and female ( b , c ) green orchid bees . male bees have an enlarged hind tibia with a hole providing access to the spongy compartment which acts as storage for fragrant compounds collected from its environment . females have corbiculae ( pollen baskets ) for collecting pollen and propolis ( plant resins ) . photographs by aaron mullins , university of florida , ft . lauderdale research and education center .", "though closely related to highly social bees in the same family , orchid bees are primarily solitary , showing only primitively social characteristics such as occasionally sharing communal nesting locations . females construct nest cells out of propolis ( resins collected from plant sources ) ( fig . 4b ) . nests are located in any sort of enclosed cavity ; entrances are often sealed off with resin and plant debris ( fig . 4a , c ) . mature nests can contain up to 20 cells . the young are provisioned with nectar and pollen provided by the mother as they develop .", "figure 4 . a young orchid bee nest constructed inside an empty nucleus colony box ( a beekeeping hive box half as wide as a typical hive box used for housing small honey bee colonies ) ( a ) . the top has been removed revealing three cells under construction by a female green orchid bee ( b ) . the entrance has been sealed off with propolis ( plant resins ) except for a small hole allowing entry for the female bee ( c ) . photographs by aaron mullins , university of florida , ft . lauderdale research and education center .", "male orchid bees exhibit a peculiar behavior of collecting fragrant volatile compounds from their environment . these compounds are meticulously collected , stored , and ( presumably ) presented to females by fanning their wings and \u201cspray ventilating\u201d their bouquet for the inspection of prospective mates . fragrant compounds are collected by males with mop - like protrusions on their front tarsi ( fig . 3a , video 1 ) . they are then transferred into the enlarged hind tibiae through the hole . collecting a complex bouquet of fragrances and storing them within the hind tibia represents a considerable investment on the part of male orchid bees . fighting and robbing fragrance stores from competing males has been observed in nature . different species of orchid bee tend to be quite particular in the fragrances sought .", "this behavior is presumably what has led to the complex interaction with species - specific orchids in their native ranges . a particular orchid will provide fragrant compounds attractive to a specific species of orchid bee . in turn , the bees provide pollination of the orchid species . the arrival and success of the green orchid bee into florida without its natural mutualistic orchid has provided evidence that the mutualism is perhaps obligatory on the part of the orchid , but merely facultative for the bees . in florida , male green orchid bees are attracted to chemicals produced by certain wood -

when camelot attempted , and failed , to win the english triple crown . his final race of the season resulted in failure in the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp , paris when an abscess was later found to have been responsible for his below - par performance .", "the royalists , while losing fewer soldiers , were now in a precarious position , since reinforcements from chester were needed to follow up on the success and defeat poyntz ' s force . as such , langdale sent lieutenant colonel jeffrey shakerley to report to charles , requesting reinforcements . shakerley arrived in chester and delivered his message after 15 minutes , but no orders were issued for a further six hours after that . barratt speculates that one reason could have been the fatigue of the royalist troops , and another the rivalries amongst the royalist commanders : gerard and digby opposed each other , with other commanders disliking langdale ; and charles not being strong enough to stop the disputes . the parliamentarians , however , did send support : at approximately 2 : 00 pm , the chester forces dispatched 350 horse and 400 musketeers under colonels michael jones and john booth to reinforce poyntz .", "\" . . . there was nothing in his appearance , which warranted him becoming so celebrated through blacklock , and of the last - named he told us mr . sylvester reed ( who bought whitelock from\u00e4the sykes at sledmere ) said ' he dare not venture on his forelegs , as his fetlocks and pasterns , almost formed a straight line . he was a great black - brown , with a stride , which required half - a - mile to settle in ; a head like half a moon , with eyes quite in his cheeks , and quarters and shoulders as fine as horse could wear . perhaps to the eye he might be rather light in the fore - ribs , though the tape told a different tale , and the hocks of his stock generally stood well away from them , a formation which requires great strength in loin to support . the hunting field was quite as much their sphere as the racecourse . \"", "the royalist plan failed to take into account poyntz and his 3 , 000 cavalry ; evidently , they assumed he had lost track of them . this assumption was mistaken , and as charles entered chester , poyntz ' s soldiers arrived in whitchurch , approximately 15 miles from chester . after hearing about the situation , poyntz promised to advance in the morning \" with a considerable body of horse \" , which encouraged the parliamentarians around chester to continue resisting . one of his messengers was intercepted by sir richard lloyd , however , who immediately sent a message to charles and langdale . after a brief council of war , they resolved that gerard ' s force and the lifeguards , along with 500 foot , would advance to either join with langdale or prevent colonel jones ' s forces linking up with poyntz . charles would remain in chester , and watch the ensuing battle from a tower in chester ' s defences , later known as king charles ' tower .", "the stewards of the jockey club have decided to construct a new and cheaper ring , immediately on the right of the new stand on the flat at newmarket . this is to be done with a view of stopping the ready - money betting , traffic outside . at the sale of the late lord lonsdale ' s horses the five lots realised under \u00a31000 , valour , at \u00a3500 , fetching th 6 highest price . i notice that mr h . mills ' horse dr tanner , who was \u00abo named in the hope that it would make him \" fast , \" has won several races lately , so that the change of name has had a beneficial result . mr c . j . cunningham , one of the best amateur cross - country riders in england , rode in twelve races at the eglington hunt meeting on march 30th and 31st . out of the dozen he won no less than eight , was second in two , third in one , and unplaced only once . the list of winning jockeys up to april 14th stood as follows : \u2014", "the decision was made to aim reference point for both the st leger and the prix de l ' arc de triomphe . in his prep race he ran in the great voltigeur stakes at york in august . he won comfortably at odds of 1 / 10 , but sustained a minor injury when slipping on the heavily - watered ground . [ 12 ] only six horses opposed him in the st leger at doncaster in september . he started the 4 / 11 favourite and won by one and a half lengths from mountain kingdom . the win took his earnings to \u00a3774 , 275 , a record for a horse racing exclusively in britain . [ 13 ] on his final start , reference point started odds - on favourite for the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp in october . as usual , he led from the start , but in the straight he weakened abruptly and finished eighth behind trempolino .

as such , the arrival of charles and his force on 23 september was met with delight .", "fourteen racers ran for the english derby , won by shotover . the french derby was run at chantilly on the sunday before the english derby . tho result was a dead heat and division of the stakes between count de lagranges colt dandin ( by gabier\u2014 dulce domini ) and m . chaslon ' s st . james ( by le petit caporal\u2014 apparition ) . the third horse was m . devigne ' s colt jasmin ( by androcles \u2014 barbillonne ) . the race haa now been run forty - seven timed , and count de lagrange has won it eight times \u2014namely , withventre st . gris , in 1858 ;

this clubbing is reasonable . the rove beetle\u201ds abdomen is perhaps flexible and long , on the external appearance , they look like earwigs .", "larvae of this scarab beetle cause enormous damage to crops and pastures in the black soil country of northern new south wales , often denuding areas of up to several acres . the adult male ( illustrated ) has remarkably enlarged , leaf - like antennae , and it flies actively after rain in summer . females , with smaller antennae , rarely fly .", "this insect is called ' fiddler ' because its back markings resemble the shape of a fiddle . it is a typical rosechafer of the family scarabaeidae and is common in summer in victoria , n . s . w . and southern queensland where it seeks nectar in flowers of tea - trees , eucalypts and prickly box . larvae breed in rotting logs .", "most beetles must mate to reproduce . a few species are capable of parthenogenesis ( par - thuh - no - jeh - nuh - sihs ) , or the process by which larvae develop from unfertilized eggs . courtship behavior in beetles is uncommon . male ground , tiger , and rove beetles may grasp the female ' s thorax with their jaws before mating , while some male blister beetles tug on the female ' s antennae . in most beetles the males simply climb on the back of the female to mate . they may stay there for some time in order to keep other males from mating with her . males usually mate with several females if they have the opportunity . females mate just once or with many males ."]}

cultural context associated with their consumption .", "humans depend on biodiversity and the capacity of ecosystems to provide a multitude of goods and services that underpin a healthy human and natural environment . biodiversity is essential for human health , for example , in the provision of the raw materials for medicines . indeed , some 20 , 000 species are used in traditional medicine , which forms the basis of primary health care for about 80 percent of the 3 billion people in developing countries . more than half of the world ' s modern drugs are derived from biological resources , which supports the traditional and modern pharmaceutical sectors [", "] . although plants and plant - derived materials make up the majority of ingredients used in most traditional medical systems globally , whole animals , animal parts , and animal - derived products ( e . g . , urine , fat , etc . ) also constitute important elements of the materia medica . indeed , zootherapy , the use of animal products in healing , is an ancient and widespread practice across most cultures [", "little attention has been paid to the cultural , medical , economic , or ecological significance of zootherapeutic practices , even though the federal government ' s national policy of pharmaceuticals ( pol\u00edtica nacional de medicamentos , portaria no . 3916 / 98 ) specifies that \" the support to research aiming to use the therapeutic potential of the national flora and fauna , with emphasis on certification of their medical properties , should be continued and expanded \" [", "] . nevertheless , since the 1980s various publications have shown the importance of zootherapy for traditional communities from distinct socio -

like portion of the stomach . mullet also graze on epiphytes and epifauna from seagrasses as well as ingest surface scum containing microalgae at the air - water interface . larval striped mullet feed primarily on microcrustaceans . one study found copepods , mosquito larvae , and plant debris in the stomach contents of larvae under 35mm in length . the amount of sand and other food matter in the stomach contents increases with length indicating that more food is ingested from the bottom substrate as the fish matures .", "at restaurants where fresh or live fish are not available , the usual unspecified nameless white fish in fillet form that has apparently become the default is the so -

important dinners as an indigenous cuisine . remember , marcos was from ilocos , and probably grew up eating the fish ) . the fish itself is very difficult to catch , and is virtually never caught in any significant quantity . it is currently the most expensive fish in the philippines , currently selling at a market price of p4 , 000 to p5 , 000 per kilogram . the remoteness of the cagayan valley also contributes to its\u2019 scarcity , as the fish spoils rapidly , given the tropical heat and difficulty transporting it to market . like anything else , supply and demand drive the price . since ludong forms part of the cultural heritage of the cagayan valley , the demand is there . however , high market prices and the scarcity of the fish encourage illegal fishing or overfishing .", "rebecca\u2019s remembers that ludong season was part of the family\u2019s annual rituals : a tradition that has nearly disappeared . ludong was always regarded as a delicacy in the cagayan valley , normally a celebration or special ingredient , given the difficulty of catching the fish . it is normally prepared in sinigang as the main ingredient , with aubergines and tamarind , or roasted with calamansi in banana leaves ( wrapped as a parcel ) , or as the main ingredient in a variation of pinakbet , with aubergines , calabaza ( sometimes the flowers ) , and bagoong .", "the denr now regulates the fishing of ludong , prohibiting it during the spawning migration . however , the fines for violations are miniscule ( only p200 ) , which is not much disincentive when compared with the high market prices the fish commands . unfortunately , there is often very little way to distinguish catching a fish for subsistence or for cultural identity and catching a fish for profit . this is the same issue that governments have struggled with in other locations in the world , such as seal or whale hunting by inuits in canada . the need for conservation must take priority , yet fulfilling

balance between subsistence and conservation . apparently in this case , the people realized too late that they are their own enemy . but , as is always the case , man tends to be wasteful , or is lacking in discipline , when there is a perceived abundance of a resource . perhaps it\u2019s time to bring in japanese expertise on the farming of this endangered species .", "ricardo : that is far too simplistic and only looks from one angle . if you say that it is ignorance only from the side of the fishermen , what about those who demand the fish in the market and drive up the prices ? you see the same effect on fish species all over the world\u2026 look at how many species are decimated by consumer demand for frozen fish sticks .", "john , i agree that it is a shared blame all around ; however , what is done is done , and the clock can never be turned back . but in order to reverse the loss and to have some success at regeneration , i think the denr has to mete out a more serious penalty than its current p200 for anyone breaking the moratorium , don\u2019t you think ?"]}

( see", "i cannot tell by what logic we call a toad , a bear , or an elephant ugly ; they being created in those outward shapes and figures which best express the actions of their inward frames ; and having passed that general visitation of god , who saw that all that he had made was good . sir thomas browne , 1642 .", "as mentioned above , it is illegal to posses the toad in any state except arizona . in arizona it is legal to posses up to to 10 toads with a valid arizona fishing license . however , if it can be proven that the possession of the toads is for recreational drug use , it would constitute a criminal violation there as well .", "like most toads , sonoran desert toads eat anything that it can overtake and capture , mainly a variety of invertebrates , but lizards , mice , and toads have also been observed in its stomach contents . sometimes this toad can be seen sitting at night under a street light , eating passing flying insects . tadpoles are presumed to eat algae and detritus .", "after two weeks at 55\u00b0 f the toads were removed from the cold room and kept three hours at room temperature . they were then injected with 2ml . of beef pituitary extract , dissolved in absolute ethanol . the suspension was drawn into a 5 ml . luer - type syringe , and was injected with an 18 gauge needle . the injections were made with the toad placed with the dorsal region facing the palm of the hand , and the cloacal region pointing towards the finger tips . holding the toad in the above manner with the left hand , the injection was made in the lower left quadrant , about one - fourth inch into the abdominal region . care was taken to avoid injury to vital organs , especially blood vessels .", "the main defense of this toad is a poison that it secretes from glands in the skin . although this poison won ' t typically kill an adult human , it can make you very sick if you handle the frog and get the poison in your mouth . dogs can get sick or die if they pick up the frog with their mouths and play with it ."]}

"although there have been no conservation actions to protect this species to date , it is fully protected by legislation in samoa , guam , and in the northern marianas islands . suitable conservation actions for this species include the protection of known roosting caves , and the identification of additional important roosting sites . surveys are needed on population status and trends , as well as ecology , and threats ( e . g . , pesticide levels ) . a proposed survey of fossil remains on many of the southern islands of its historical range could yield potential translocation sites .",

population is certainly decreasing as the humid forest is converted into agricultural areas there is no evidence that the decrease has been rapid enough to warrant near threatened or threatened status .", "this species is restricted to the humid zone of eastern madagascar and has been recorded from around maroantsetra in the north to tolagnaro ( fort dauphin ) in the south ( goodman et al . 2006 )

collected by people for bushmeat in one part of eastern madagascar ( d . andriafidison pers . comm ) . otherwise , forest clearance for expanding agriculture threatens the foraging and roosting sites

2006 ) as well as from a network of protected sites around the baie de antogil ( goodman et al . 2006 ) . it probably does not require specific conservation action as long as forest vegetation is protected , but local populations should be monitored at roosting sites .", "justification : although this species is known only from scattered records it is listed as least concern in view of the

occurs on new ireland , lihir , tabar islands , bougainville , and buka , papua new guinea . in the solomon islands , it has been reported from the islands of guadalcanal , malaita , new georgia , and sanata isabel ( bonaccorso 1998 ; flannery 1995a , b ) . it has an elevational range of sea level to 1 , 600 m asl .", "flannery ( 1995a ) reports that this is a relatively common species on new guinea .", "this species inhabits shallow limestone caves and mining tunnels , with colonies typically consisting of between ten and 30 animals ( bonaccorso 1998 ; flannery 1995a ) . it is an insectivorous species that combines aerial feeding with foliage gleaning ( bonaccorso 1998 ) .", "suitable conservation actions for this species are the protection of known roosting caves , and identification of additional important roosting sites . the species has been recorded from crater mountain wildlife management area ( d . wright pers . comm . ) .", "justification : this bat is listed as least concern because although this species is declining due to the impacts of ongoing forest loss due to shifting agriculture and logging the reduction of suitable habitat is not thought to be sufficient to warrant listing in a higher category of threat . however , this species is not abundant within its range and requires close population monitoring and a reassessment may be needed in the near future .", "roosting colonies of p . tiavato are usually relatively small ( < 20 individuals ) .", "it appears to be associated with relatively intact forest and is believed to be forest dependent ( goodman et al . 2005 , 2006 ) . it is usually found roosting in the entrances to narrow caves and overhangs on rocks that receive weak sunlight ( cardiff 2006 , goodman et al . 2006 ,

2006 ) . its diet includes lepidoptera ( razakarivony et al . 2005 ) .", "the species is threatened by habitat loss due to slash - and - burn agriculture ( tavy ) and from charcoal collecting and

previous assessments were limited by the availability of information on distribution . in recent years , new records of presence based on captures and recordings of its signature echolocation call , along with regional acoustic surveys , have extended the known and possible range of this species . as a result of this new information , and given the lack of identified key threats , this species

san ) is a slice of life manga series by inuinu ( \u72ac\u72ac ) with yuri undertones . it\u2019s about mermaids ! however , the mermaids are a little strange here . unlike the ordinary \u201cgeneric fish tail\u201d appearance , the mermaids in this tale take on the features of real life sea creatures , and their features don\u2019t end at their tail fins .", "cats aside , she has some issues with self - consciousness as well , and it\u2019s thanks to otomi wakasa ( pictured above in the final panel ) that she\u2019s become a little better . wakasa is a human and friend to anko , but before we continue let\u2019s stop for a minute and talk about yuri .", "as i mentioned in my review of hitoribocchi no oo seikatsu , i like yuri quite a bit . yuri is the japanese word for \u201clilies\u201d , and in the context of manga / anime and such it is used to refer to a genre about lesbian romance . the name \u201cyuri\u201d might have its roots in the mirror opposite genre of \u201cbara\u201d ( meaning \u201crose\u201d ) but , uh\u2026i don\u2019t like bara . i\u2019m not going to discuss bara .", "at any rate , yuri has a few settings , i think . there\u2019s\u2026let\u2019s call them subtext yuri , standard yuri , and hard yuri , for simplicity\u2019s sake . while i call standard yuri \u201cstandard\u201d , the most common type you\u2019re probably going to see is subtext yuri , which basically applies to anko - san . this is a setting of yuri where the way girls interact with one another might make you raise your eyebrow and think \u201care these two going to kiss or something ? \u201d , but as this is subtext it never goes beyond that . you\u2019re not getting any kisses , just lustful stares , blushing , and maybe ( friendly ) confessions . i consider myself a pretty big yuri fan , so i\u2019ll take it where i can get it and delve into subtext yuri regularly . that said , most of what i read is standard yuri .", "putting it bluntly , standard yuri is what i\u2019d like most subtext yuri to end up as . you might have heard \u201csubtext yuri\u201d referred to as \u201cshoujo ai\u201d to differentiate from this , but i don\u2019t really know about that , and matters regarding the so - called \u201cgirls love\u201d genre are contentious . anyway , this is outright homosexual romance between girls , no ifs ands or buts . forbidden love ! the purest form of love ! i like it , i love it , but this review isn\u2019t the place to explain why .", "returning to anko - san , the manga wastes no time establishing the yuri subtext , because wakasa is a\u2026 \u201cfan\u201d of mermaids .", "now , although i share some of young wakasa - kun\u2019s spirit on these matters , i don\u2019t believe anko - san is just another slice of life series with some gay teasing . there are a lot of those . arguably every girl - based slice of life is such a series , and there is an appeal and comfort in that , but anko - san is more . i would call this a remarkable series , and a bit of a standout of its genre . i\u2019m not about to call this manga a work of genius or something , but it\u2019s definitely different , and not at all in a bad way .", "before we get into that properly , i\u2019ll briefly sum up the introduction of this series . after we meet wakasa and anko , the two characters go to school and encounter touna suzuki , a fighting fish ( betta ) mermaid and the third of the main characters that sticks around . her ( unwanted ) nickname is betako . she is a \u201crich girl\u201d ( ojou ) sort of character and a tsundere . i\u2019m not explaining what a tsundere is . you know what a tsundere is .", "after dealing with betako anko\u2019s day proceeds as usual until , during class , she starts suffering all of a sudden . we learn here that the reason mermaids are able to walk on land is due to taking something called mermaid medicine ( \u201cmermeds\u201d , as the translator for this series calls them ) and anko\u2019s are running out . the medicine changes one\u2019s tail fin into a pair of legs , and once it\u2019s run out the fin returns . anko doesn\u2019t want this to happen , especially not in front of others , because she\u2019s embarrassed by her tail fin\u2019s appearance . wakasa rushes her to the infirmary where she can get some medication , but it\u2019s a little too late and her tail fin reappears .", "after anko\u2019s tail fin is exposed , the nurse of the infirmary ( a deep sea mermaid as well ) and wakasa surprise her by complimenting her fin with not a drop of sarcasm . the nurse explains that from its shine it\u2019s clear anko takes great care of her fin , and wakasa is simply captivated by it entirely ( and not in the usual perverted way she reacts to mermaids ) . and so here we see a hint at what the series will mostly be about : helping mermaids with their problems .", "i\u2019d like to talk about yuri again , because of course i would , but first i should mention the fourth main character in this series . most slice of life series have four girls as the core group , for some reason ( it\u2019s a precedent set by azumanga daioh \u2018s notability , maybe ? ) , and anko - san isn\u2019t an exception . it is a bit strange , though , in that the two aside from anko and wakasa don\u2019t really get as much play as them . this is surely because of the \u201csolve the problems\u201d format of most of the chapters ; the ones where no real problems need solving feature a four man band as usual .", "so yes , meet the last of the four : fukuda akame , a pufferfish mermaid .", "the poor girl suffers from chuunibyou ( eighth - grade syndrome ) , a condition many have suffered from to some degree . it is characterized by feeling you are unique and incredibly special , and that you perhaps have magic powers . it is also worth noting that in cases of chuunibyou there is typically a distinct lack of shame . called \u201ceighth - grade syndrome\u201d because it tends to happen in middle school , young akame - kun has it in high school .", "akame is definitely the least significant character out of the main characters , and the chuuni gimmick is one that can often be pretty obnoxious , but honestly akame is my favorite character in anko - san .", "i don\u2019t think she\u2019s the best character , and i don\u2019t even pair her with anyone in the series , but heck , she\u2019s great . most of the times she appears she\u2019s just doing something a bit peculiar in silence while making a face like this , and that\u2019s enough to bring a smile to my face . she\u2019s rather a coward but can also stand against intimidation despite herself ( like a pufferfish , i suppose ) and her design is\u2026hm , puffy ( like a pufferfish , i suppose ) . therefore allow me to declare with all my might : akame is cute ! cute !", "behold , the ship ( that is , heh , relationship for you uninitiated ) i support .", "i didn\u2019t really touch on betako before because the time simply wasn\u2019t right . she\u2019s actually my second favorite character in this series , and a big reason why is her relationship with the main character anko . anko and betako\u2019s relationship is antagonistic . they almost , almost always fight when they happen to spend any length of time together ( usually instigated by betako\u2019s insults ) . but really , their relationship , it\u2019s like this :", "i\u2019m an absolute sucker for this sort of dynamic . it gets me every time , whether it\u2019s hetero or homosexual in nature . i\u2019m sure many of you have had this sensation overcome you when seeing two characters that constantly butt heads in fiction butt heads once more : the desire to shout \u201ckiss already\u201d . the reason for this is that like love , hate is passion . it\u2019s surging and powerful emotion ! negative or positive , that\u2019ll get your blood pumping . whether or not anko and betako will readily admit it , they enjoy their back and forth , and genuinely appreciate things about one another\u2019s character .", "two more things before the review ends . first , this series is not at the most secure of places with translations into english . the series ended at four volumes ( which makes me somewhat sad , by the way ) , but not even the second volume has been fully translated . i don\u2019t have a bad opinion of scanlation , although i did think it might be a faux pas to mention it in a review context . then i remembered , doi , scanlation is how most people are introduced to series ! you can always buy volumes whether or not they\u2019re translated ; it\u2019s not as though reading a scanlation voids your ability to purchase the manga afterward ( in fact , buying the volumes is what those working on this series encourage you to do ) . so , if you are able and would like to assist at all , get in contact with the guy working on it . it seems the biggest hold ups , generally speaking , are getting quality raws and also translations themselves .", "next time , i\u2019ll be discussing what is widely regarded as one of the most important and seminal entries into the yuri canon . a true great . see you then !", "nice review . definitely was a fun manga to read . also especially like how anko treat her tail fin", "ha ha , and that\u2019s how people tend to forget real animals are at the origin of the \u201ccuteness\u201d concept\u2026 herm , except perhaps the deep -

playing video games ( created by satoshi tajiri and released by nintendo for the game boy ; kent , 2001 ) : pok\u00e9mon green and pok\u00e9mon red , released in japan in 1996 . in the west , the green version never saw the light of day , but the red and blue versions were released in 1998 , selling together more than 10 million copies . also in 1998 , the yellow version of the game was released , which has as its most distinct feature the possibility of having pikachu ( the most famous pok\u00e9mon ) walking side by side with the player in the game . pok\u00e9mon green , red , blue and yellow are the so - called \u201cfirst generation\u201d of games in the franchise . today , the pok\u00e9mon series is in its seventh generation , with 29 main games released , besides several spin - offs . the tv series , on the other hand , is in its sixth season , with more than 900 episodes .", "the games and tv series take place in regions inhabited by many pok\u00e9mon and humans . the mission of the protagonist is to win competitions ( \u201cpok\u00e9mon battles\u201d ) against gym leaders who are spread across different cities and regions . for each victory , the protagonist receives a gym badge ; with eight badges , he / she is allowed to enter the pok\u00e9mon league to try and become the champion .", "for each generation , new pok\u00e9mon ( and an entire new region ) are introduced . in this way , the creatures have a homeland , although most can appear in other regions as well ( schlesinger , 1999b ; whitehill et al . , 2016 ) . the seven main regions are : kanto , johto , hoenn , sinnoh , unova , kalos and alola .", "in every region , there are numbered routes that connect cities and landmarks and in which the protagonist travels , finding the monsters in their natural habitats and interacting with other characters . these routes comprise a great range of environments , such as forests , caves , deserts , mountains , fields , seas , beaches , underwater places , mangroves , rivers and marshes , which usually display a huge diversity of pok\u00e9mon .", "in addition to winning the pok\u00e9mon league , the protagonist must complete the pok\u00e9dex , a digital encyclopedia of pok\u00e9mon . in other words , the trainer must catch all the pok\u00e9mon that live in that region , registering each capture in the pok\u00e9dex . each pok\u00e9mon has a registry number and an entry text in the pok\u00e9dex . pok\u00e9mon are usually found in nature , and may be captured with a device called \u201cpok\u00e9ball\u201d . pok\u00e9balls are small enough to fit in a pocket , hence the name \u201cpocket monsters\u201d ( whitehill et al . , 2016 ) .", "in the present work , the pok\u00e9mon world was approached by analogies with the real natural world , establishing parallels with actual animals .", "based on these obvious connections between real fishes and pok\u00e9mon , the aim of this work is to describe the ichthyological diversity found in pok\u00e9mon based on taxonomic criteria of the classification of real fishes . ultimately , our goal is to offer useful material for both teaching and the popularization of science .", "table 1 . taxonomic classification of the fish pok\u00e9mon . abbreviations : ch = chondrichthyes ; gn = gnathostomata ; pe = petromyzontomorphi ; pt = petromyzontida ; os = osteichthyes . all images obtained from the official pok\u00e9mon website ( 2016 ) .", "the first step of our research was a search in the pok\u00e9dex ( the official pok\u00e9mon website , 2016 ) for pok\u00e9mon which were related to fishes . the criterion used was the pok\u00e9mon\u2019s morphology ( resemblance to real fishes ) . afterwards , the \u201cfish pok\u00e9mon\u201d were classified to the lowest taxonomic level ( preferably species , but when not possible , genus , family or even order ) .", "this classification of the pok\u00e9mon allowed the comparison of biological data ( such as ecological , ethological , morphological traits ) from bulbapedia ( 2017 ) with the current knowledge on real fishes ( e . g . , nelson et al . , 2016 ) . bulbapedia is a digital community - driven encyclopedia created in 2004 and is the most complete source regarding the pocket monsters .", "the final step was a search in online scientific databases ( fishbase , froese & pauly , 2016 ; and catalog of fishes , eschmeyer et al . , 2016 ) in order to obtain the current and precise taxonomy and additional information on habitats , ecology etc . of the fish species .", "in the present work , the taxonomic classification used was that proposed by nelson et al . ( 2016 ) , who consider the superclasses petromyzontomorphi ( which includes the class petromyzontida , that is , the lampreys ) and gnathostomata ( the jawed vertebrates ) . gnathostomata , in turn , includes the classes chondrichthyes ( cartilaginous fishes ) and osteichthyes ( bony fishes ) . along with this classification , we used the classification proposed by the database itis ( integrated taxonomic information system , 2016 ) for comparison at all taxonomic levels . following identification , the \u201cfish pok\u00e9mon\u201d were described regarding their taxonomic and ecological diversity .", "as a result of our search , 34 fish pok\u00e9mon were identified ( circa 4 % of the total 801 pok\u00e9mon ; table 1 ) and allocated in two superclasses , three classes , eighteen orders , twenty families and twenty - two genera . eighteen of the 34 fish pok\u00e9mon ( circa 53 % ) could be identified to the species level ( table 2 ) . the features of the real fishes which probably inspired the creation of the pok\u00e9mon and other relevant information are described below for each species . to enrich the comparisons , images of the pok\u00e9mon ( obtained from the pok\u00e9dex of the official pok\u00e9mon website ; urltoken ) and of the real fishes ( illustrations by one of us , c . b . p . eirado - silva ) follow the descriptions .", "the pok\u00e9mon horsea and seadra ( fig . 1 ) , which debuted in the first generation of the franchise , were based on seahorses . the long snout , ending in a toothless mouth ( foster & vincent , 2004 ) , the prehensile , curved tail ( rosa et al . , 2006 ) and the salient abdomen are features of the real fishes present in these pok\u00e9mon . seahorses belong to the genus hippocampus , presently composed of 54 species ( nelson et al . , 2016 ) . the males have a pouch in their bellies where up to 1 , 000 eggs are deposited by the females . in this pouch , the eggs are fertilized and incubated for a period ranging from 9 to 45 days ( foster & vincent , 2004 ) . due to overfishing for medicinal and ornamental purposes , as well habitat destruction , about 33 species of seahorses are considered threatened ( rosa et al . , 2007 , castro et al . , 2008 ; kasapoglu & duzgunes , 2014 ) .", "goldeen and seaking ( fig . 2 ) were based on the goldfish . this species is one of the most common ornamental fishes worldwide ( soares et al . , 2000 ; moreira et al . , 2011 ) and it is widely used in studies of physiology and reproduction due to its docile behavior and easy acclimatization to artificial conditions ( bittencourt et al . , 2012 ; braga et al . , 2016 ) . the resemblance between the goldfish and the pok\u00e9mon include morphological features , such as the orange / reddish color and the long merged fins , and the name \u201cgoldeen\u201d . the name seaking , on the other hand , may be a reference to another common name of the species , \u201ckinguio\u201d , from the japanese \u201ckin - yu\u201d ( ortega - salas & reyes - bustamante , 2006 ) .", "possibly the most famous fish pok\u00e9mon , magikarp ( fig . 3 ) was based on a common carp , a species present in europe , africa and asia , widely used in pisciculture due to its extremely easy acclimatization to many freshwater environments and the high nutritional value of its meat ( stoyanova et al . , 2015 ; mahboob et al . , 2016 ; voigt et al . , 2016 ) . in some regions of the planet , such as brazil , the common carp is considered an invasive species , as it was inadvertently released in the wild and poses a threat to the native aquatic fauna ( smith et al . , 2013 ; contreras - macbeath et al . , 2014 ) .", "the shared traits between the pok\u00e9mon and the real fish are many : the rounded mouth , the lips , the strong orange color and the presence of barbels ( \u201cwhiskers\u201d ) ( nelson et al . , 2016 ) . in china , the common carp is praised as an animal linked to honor and strength , due of its ability to swim against the current ; an ancient legend tells about carps that swim upstream , entering through a portal and transforming into dragons ( roberts , 2004 ) . in pok\u00e9mon , magikarp evolves into gyarados , which resembles a typical chinese dragon .", "qwilfish ( fig . 5 ) was based on porcupinefishes , more likely those of the genus diodon , which present coloring and spines most similar to this pok\u00e9mon . besides the distinctive hard , sharp spines ( fujita et al . , 1997 ) , porcupinefishes have the ability to inflate as a strategy to drive off predators ( raymundo & chiappa , 2000 ) . as another form of defense , these fishes possess a powerful bacterial toxin in their skin and organs ( lucano - ram\u00edrez et al . , 2011 ; ravi et al . , 2016 ) . accordingly , qwilfish has both water and poison types .", "remoraid was based on a remora ( fig . 6 ) , a fish with a suction disc on its head that allows its adhesion to other animals such as turtles , whales , dolphins , sharks and manta rays ( fertl & landry , 1999 ; silva & sazima , 2003 ; friedman et al . , 2013 ; nelson et al . , 2016 ) . this feature allows the establishment of a commensalisc or mutualisc relationship of transportation , feeding and protection between the adherent species and its \u201cride\u201d ( williams et al . , 2003 ; sazima & grossman , 2006 ) . the similarities also include the name of the pok\u00e9mon and the ecological relationship they have with other fish pok\u00e9mon : in the same way remoras keep ecological relationships with rays , remoraid does so with mantyke and mantine ( pok\u00e9mon based on manta rays ; see below ) .", "the pok\u00e9mon mantyke and its evolved form mantine ( fig . 7 ) were probably based on manta rays of the species manta birostris , which inhabits tropical oceans ( duffy & abbot , 2003 ; dewar et al . , 2008 ) and can reach more than 6 meters of wingspan , being the largest species of ray in existence ( homma et al . , 1999 ; ari & correia , 2008 ; marshall et al . , 2008 ; luiz et al . , 2009 ; nelson et al . , 2016 ) . the similarities between the pok\u00e9mon and the real fish are : the body shape , the color pattern , the large and distinctive wingspan and even the names .", "kingdra and skrelp ( fig . 8 ) were based on the common seadragon . the resemblances between these pok\u00e9mon and the real fish species include the leaf - shaped fins that help the animals to camouflage themselves in the kelp \u201cforests\u201d they inhabit ( sanchez - camara et al . , 2006 ; rossteuscher et al . , 2008 ; sanchez - camara et al . , 2011 ) , and the long snout . also , the secondary type of kingdra is dragon . although both are based on the common seadragon , kingdra and skrelp are not in the same \u201cevolutionary line\u201d in the game .", "common seadragons , as the seahorses mentioned above , are of a particular interest to conservationists , because many species are vulnerable due to overfishing , accidental capture and habitat destruction ( foster & vincent , 2004 ; martin - smith & vincent , 2006 ) .", "piranhas of the genus pygocentrus possibly were the inspiration for the creation of carvanha ( fig . 9 ) , a pok\u00e9mon of voracious and dangerous habits . the main feature shared by the real fish and the pok\u00e9mon is the color pattern : bluish in the dorsal and lateral areas , and reddish in the ventral area ( piorski et al . , 2005 ; luz et al . , 2015 ) .", "it is worthwhile pointing out that , despite what is shown in movies and other media , piranhas do not immediately devour their prey ; instead , they tear off small pieces , bit by bit , such as scales and fins ( trindade & juc\u00e1 - chagas , 2008 ; vital et al . , 2011 ; ferreira et al . , 2014 ) .", "sharpedo ( fig . 10 ) , according to its morphological traits ( elongated fins ) , was possibly based on sharks of the order carcharhiniformes , the largest group of sharks , with 216 species in 8 families and 48 genera . fishes in this order are common in all oceans , in both coastal and oceanic regions , and from the surface to great depths ( gomes et al . , 2010 ) . several species of carcharhiniformes are in the iucn\u2019s ( international union for conservation of nature ) endangered species list ( a . k . a . \u201cred list\u201d ) due to overfishing , as their fins possess high commercial value ( cunningham - day , 2001 ) .", "whiscash ( fig . 12 ) was based on the japanese mythological creature namazu , a gigantic catfish that inhabits the underground realm and is capable of creating earthquakes ( ashkenazi , 2003 ) . namazu also names the pok\u00e9mon in the japanese language ( \u201c namazun \u201d ) . in japan , fishes of the genus silurus are usually associated with this mythological creature and even the common name of these fishes in that country is \u201c namazu \u201d ( yuma et al . , 1998 ; malek et al . , 2004 ) . in addition , the physical traits of the silurus catfishes also present in whiscash are the long barbels ( or \u201cwhiskers\u201d , hence the name whiscash ) and the robust body ( kobayakawa , 1989 ; kiyohara & kitoh , 1994 ) . in addition to the water type , whiscash is also ground type , which is related to namazu\u2019s fantastic ability of creating earthquakes .", "the pok\u00e9mon feebas ( fig . 13 ) , a relatively weak fish ( as its name implies ) , was possibly based on a largemouth bass , a freshwater fish native to north america ( hossain et al . , 2013 ) . the species was introduced in many countries and is often considered a threat to the native fauna ( welcomme , 1992 ;

see below ) . according to raju ( 1974 ) , fishes of the genus monognathus live in great depths and have a continuous dorsal fin that ends in an urostyle ( \u201c uro \u201d comes from the greek language and means \u201ctail\u201d , an element also present in the pok\u00e9mon\u2019s name ) .", "the serpentine body and the thin beak - shaped jaw of gorebyss ( fig . 16 ) are features of fishes belonging to the family nemichthyidae ( nielsen & smith , 1978 ) . these fishes inhabit tropical and temperate oceans and can be found in depths up to 4 , 000 meters , in the so - called \u201cabyssal zone\u201d ( cruz - mena & anglo , 2016 ) . the pok\u00e9mon\u2019s name may be a reference to such habitat .", "the silver - pinkish coloration , the peculiar mouth formed by strong lips and the habit of \u201ckissing\u201d other individuals of their species ( which is actually a form of aggression ! ) are features of the kissing gourami ( sterba 1983 ; sousa & severi 2000 ; sulaiman & daud , 2002 ; ferry et al . , 2012 ) that are also seen in luvdisc ( fig . 18 ) . helostoma temminckii is native to thailand , indonesia , java , borneo , sumatra and the malay peninsula ( axelrod et al . , 1971 ) , but due to its use an ornamental fish and the irresponsible handling by fishkeepers , it has been introduced in other parts of the world ( magalh\u00e3es , 2007 ) ."]}

( transactions of the new zealand institute ) , which were found to be covered with a rough cement . they are also different from those of another specimen , of which i shall give some details further on .", "a single fold begins below the throat , 1 foot 1 inch from the top of the lower jaw . after rising rapidly for four inches , it continues for seven inches more at a smaller angle , ceasing where the black colour of the throat begins . this fold is separated into two portions by a ridge of the breadth of half an inch below the centre of the throat .", "lips flesh - coloured ; roof of mouth slaty - black ; no signs of teeth along the jaws ; there is , however , a hardened ridge along both sides of the palate . the extremity of the lower jaw projects about two inches beyond the upper . the head rises steeply above the upper lip to the forehead .", "the blow - hole is situated on the vertex of the head just above the eye . both the form and the size of the dorsal fin and of the tail - lobes , show that this species must be a remarkably swift swimmer .", "before giving a description of the external appearance of the specimen under review , i wish to allude to another female , 21 feet 6 inches long , of the same species , stranded on may 15th , 1879 , on the sea - beach near kaiapoi , and of which the skeleton was also secured .", "this was , doubtless , a full - grown , aged animal , the terminal epiphyses being so well anchylosed to the body of the vertebr\u00e6 that even the line of junction could be scarcely distinguished , while in the new brighton specimen these discs were still unanchylosed , and detached themselves readily during maceration .", "in form of the body , and colouration , this animal resembled in every respect the new brighton specimen . however , the two teeth existing at the tip of the lower jaw could not be felt when passing the fingers over the gums , and were only disclosed when making incisions .", "the teeth are the smallest of all those known to me , being 1\u00b798 and 2 inches long , and only \u00b746 of an inch broad . the left tooth weighs 66 and the right 62 grains . the flattened root is square , and somewhat constricted a quarter of an inch above the base , after which the tooth expands , being broadest about the middle . it then contracts rapidly , running out to a sharp point . this is thus confirmatory evidence that the teeth , with age , are absorbed , and disappear gradually below the gums ; although it is possible that even below the gums they may still be of some use to the animal . it is a peculiar character of the small teeth of the kaiapoi specimen that they should be so very thin , and terminate in a sharp point ; and that the latter should be covered with real enamel , different from any observed upon the dentine in any other teeth of the same species .", "is no doubt in my mind that with them the teeth in front of the lower jaw are both permanent and of larger size than those of the females , just in the same manner as they exist in other ziphioid genera . fortunately , however , there is some evidence at hand strengthening such an hypothesis .", "dr . hector , in his account of the skull of epiodon chathamiensis , * obtained in the chatham islands , describes the teeth of this species , as follows : \u2014\u201cthe lower jaw * * * terminates in two , short , stout , slightly compressed teeth , 2 inches long , and 4 inches in circumference , implanted in shallow sockets . the teeth have slight , irregular stri\u00e6 , and are worn down into two lateral facets , divided by an acute ridge . the position of the teeth , when the jaws are closed , is 2 inches beyond the upper mandible , and unless they are applied against callosities on the upper lip , it is difficult to conceive how they are worn down to this acute form . weight of teeth 817 and 836 grains . \u201d", "finally , i should like to make a few observations on the nomenclature , and the changes proposed .", "in plate viii . , b is the vent , c the pudendum , and d the fold .", "[ read before the wellington philosophical society , 11 th october , 1879 . ]", "having since made a minute examination , i have not the slightest hesitation in pronouncing it to be a specimen of gould ' s hiaticula ruficapilla ;

it is very numerous in tasmania , on flinders ' island , on the sand - banks at the mouth of the hunter in new south wales , and at port adelaide in south australia ; and gilbert states that it is equally abundant in western australia , where it is likewise so strictly a bird of the coast that he never saw it inland . it is usually met with in pairs , but may be occasionally observed associating in small companies : \u2014", "\u201clike the tring\u0153 , this bird resorts to every possible device in order to lure the intruder from its nest ; throwing itself down upon its breast and flapping its wings , as if in the agonies of death , it will so continue until he has approached almost near enough to place his hand upon it , when it moves along for several yards , dragging one of its legs behind , and , if still followed , attempts to fly , and so well imitates the motion of a bird wounded in the wing , that the intruder is easily misled , and the eggs remain undiscovered . \u201d", "\u201cthe male has the forehead crossed by a broad band of white , which gradually diminishes to a point at the posterior angle of the eye ; above , a band of black , which also diminishes to a point at the same place ; from the angle of the mouth to the eye , a line of black , which is continued from the posterior angle of the eye down the sides of the neck ; crown of head , nape , and back of neck , rich rusty red ; all the upper surface and wings pale brown , each feather margined with a still lighter tint : primaries , blackish - brown ; the shafts and extreme edge of the inner webs white ; four central tail - feathers dark brown , the remainder white ; all the under surface white ; irides very dark brown ; bill dark reddish brown ; naked part of legs above the tarsi dark greenish grey , tarsi light grey ;

he says it has frequently been seen about the station during the last four years .", "no . 2 is a partial albino . the head , neck , back , and fore - part of the breast are light brown , stained in places with coppery - purple ;

( here i should mention , that the regular pulsation in their throats is always prominently seen ) . and so , as this diseased lizard became", "offensive , yet still living ( though not eating ) , dirtying the others with its discharges , anal now as well as aural , i threw it out into the field .", "one of the spotted young ones ( which i shall term no . 1 . ) also cast its skin on the 6th december ; like that of the large male it commenced at the snout , but it came away in fragments\u2014perhaps owing to its being both young and tender .", "on the 8th december the second young green lizard died , just as the former young one died , from starvation . this one had , in common with the two young spotted ones , plenty of small flies ( now more easily obtained as the summer advanced ) , but it wanted the power to catch any .", "about the 12th december the two remaining adult lizards seemed to be getting into a diseased state ; the handsome male , which had so lately shed its outer skin , had something the matter with its ear , from which a bloody discharge was oozing ( resembling in a smaller degree the early diseased state of the adult one that died ) , while the adult female was restless , swelled in the lower abdomen , and discharging a bloody mixture from its anus ; finding this one getting rapidly worse , with its anus greatly swelled and blotchy\u2014starred all round the margin as it were in a curious regular manner\u2014i lost no time in putting it into a bottle of spirits , and , on my going to look at it some ten minutes after , i found , to my astonishment , no less than 26 large living larv\u00e6 of that red - brown flesh - fly had been discharged from its anus ! these were each 5 lines long , and it was their posterior ends compacted together and jutting out from the lizard ' s anus which had given it in that part its peculiar appearance . now it flashed across my", "mind , \u2014their evident dislike and dread on their first seeing that flesh - fly in their cage ; and that this was also the cause of the death of my first lizard , into which the living larv\u00e6 had been deposited through its ears ! causing its head to possess and show those ugly , unnatural throbbings or semi - undulations . i now hastened to the adult male lizard , and caught it , and on gently squeezing its head i saw the posterior end of a larva presenting itself within its ear ; i took a needle and extracted it ; it was much larger than those in the spirits , and gorged with blood . after this the male lizard soon recovered and became lively , though that aural orifice completely closed up , and so remained until the next shedding of its skin , when i was glad to find that it resumed its former appearance . from the time of this discovery i was careful not to give them any more viviparous female flesh - flies , consequently i have had no more similar diseases to notice .", "the big male lizard again shed its skin on the 24th january ; this time , however , in fragments , yet done quickly , all being over within two hours . and again this lizard shed its skin on the 15th of march , this time in large pieces ; finding that while it had extricated its hind - legs it could not draw out its tail , i caught it and helped it to do so . it was pleasing to see how quietly it remained in my hand , when it found out what i was doing , and how naturally it moved its long tail in an easy wriggling manner , and with", "strong muscular power pulling against me , so that the whole outer skin of the tail came off , as at first , in one unbroken piece . the cast skin is damp , soft , and slightly clammy , on its being shed , but it quickly dries and hardens .", "the young lizard ( no . 1 ) next cast off its skin on the 31st december , having assumed the milky appearance already mentioned the day before ; and to my great surprise this same lizard again put on the cloudy milky appearance on the 13th january , and again shed its skin on the following day when its scurf was just a fortnight old ! as before , it began to break away at its snout , but on this occasion , somehow , possibly owing to its fineness , it got rolled up together and backwards behind its eyes , giving the animal with its white wig the drollest appearance imaginable , so that i often laughed outright ! this time it was very slow in casting off its rags , as parts of its skin were still hanging on its sides on the 24th january\u2014just ten days\u2014when i caught it and helped it . this lizard again shed its skin on the 1st march , when it was two days in getting it wholly off : often biting it and tearing at it with its claws . the next time it did so was on the 19th april , having assumed the usual milky appearance two days before ; on this occasion its old scurf first broke through over its back .", "the other young lizard ( no . 2 ) again cast off its outer skin on the 5th february , having the day before put on the peculiar milky appearance .", "big adult male , 1878 , november 16 ;

next it lifts its little hand - like paws and moves them , only a toe or a finger at a time and often in the air , very slowly and cautiously ( much like a little child does its hands when stealing along on tip - toe ) , and then it nears its head towards its prey , but so very slowly that i have better detected its movement by watching its shadow cast on marked paper by strong sunlight , \u2014reminding me of the almost imperceptible movement of the hour - hand of a clock . at last it has got to", "which they also did . the large lizard often puts its tongue out ( \u201clicking its lips\u201d ) when it goes after a fly , especially if a big one ; i am inclined to think that it is hungry then . it is pretty to see the two young lizards going together after the same fly , especially if the fly is crawling above them , within , on the glass roof ; to see them walking slowly , side by side , with measured gait , and step by step , like a pair of hounds in a leash or a couple of miniature fairy - like little creatures , with their heads up , and their little black eyes glistening ; at such times , too , when they at last near the fly , they often trample on each other in their eagerness , but whenever they do so , they always take it very quietly , the one underneath neither struggling nor retaliating .", "it has often seemed to me as if it were a natural law , or rule , of these lizards ( a thing understood by them ) , that whenever they trample on , or walk slowly over , each other , or stand , or lie , or even sleep on each other , the under one , or ones , always take it patiently , and rarely ever move at all\u2014not even when the sharp claws of the upper lizard are pressing on the eyes of the one under him : i have often been surprised at this . i have never once seen them fight or fall out , or attempt to bite each other , although confined in so small a compass . they often spend hours lying on each other ' s backs , which is a favourite posture with them , and sometimes sleep , or spend , the whole night thus . i have seen the whole seven thus together in one lump , with , sometimes , the little ones underneath .", "they don ' t seem very timid nor easily startled to any great degree with noises , or sights , or sounds . i keep them on the table in my sitting - room , at which i take my meals , etc . , and i have often thrown down a newspaper by their side , or struck the table with a book pretty strongly , yet they never start ; it is the same when the candles are lit . they appear , too , as if they liked to snugly ensconce themselves in their cage under the koromiko branch , or ( the two young ones ) stretched out at full length on the upper side of the twigs .", "i believe them to be inoffensive , peaceful , and sociable ; and if , as i have already surmised , the fourth one ( which was killed ) was also a male , then there would have been two couples , at least , hybernating together in one \u201chole ; \u201d or that \u201chole\u201d may have been their usual dwelling - place , seeing there were found in it \u201c lots of black stuff\u201d\u2014no doubt their dry and hardened f\u00e6ces , which could not , i think , have been so largely deposited during the short period then passed of their hybernation . an intelligent friend in the country , who is also an observer of nature , has informed me that he has found them , in clearing , \u201csix or seven together , cuddled up under the roots of a flax - bush\u201d ( phormium ) .", "and then passing their broad , thin , and large tongue right over their eyes , as if washing them , and always so finishing their drinking . i have also seen them lick the wet koromiko leaves when fresh ; and the young ones , more than once , lick the adult male . their tongue and palate are of a deep purple colour , much like that of some plums , and the tongue , when fully extended ( as in licking ) , has an emarginate appearance , which may , however , be owing to the action of the hyoid muscle .", "they seem to like the water , as they often go singly into their water - trough , and remain extended in the water for some time . they can swim very fast , too , but clumsily , as if they were in a great hurry about it ; i have occasionally tried them at swimming in a large vessel of water .", "they can run very swiftly , as i have often proved . when they merely walk , their tails are always straight ; but when they make haste their tails are undulated laterally throughout their whole length . here , no doubt , their under - squam\u00e6 help them ; this , indeed , i have in a measure ascertained , in my taking the large lizard into my hands and holding it vertically , when , to aid its ascent in crawling , all the squam\u00e6 below are used strongly , and one feels them curiously applied against the hand . * this , also , i think , will account for their being able to climb up on the outside of their glass dome , which they can do\u2014in which feat they are no doubt also materially aided by the large transverse scales on their toes , which are a beautiful object , and admirably adapted for climbing purposes . their claws , too , are exceedingly sharp , having a translucent or semi - crystalline appearance , and are set on at almost a right angle to their toes . one can hardly bear to hold them in one ' s hand when they struggle and use their sharp claws .", "their tails have also a strong prehensile power , as i have found in their clasping my fingers with them very closely , and so holding on . on one occasion i had to clear the tail of one which was fast , having taken a half - turn over itself in the sharp angle of a twiggy branch of half - withered and flaccid koromiko , which , i suppose , it had pressed down by lying upon it .", "they sometimes spring a short distance very nimbly when they wish to get away from any little obstructions ; and they also jump down fearlessly and without hesitation . i have taken them up and allowed them to run over a book , etc . , held horizontally , 2\u20133 feet above the table , when they would run straight over the edge of the book and drop on the table on all - fours , like a weasel or a cat , and so continue to run as before .", "they assume all manner of curious and grotesque positions , some of them being most extraordinary , and some apparently painful , but in reality i suppose are not so . whatever posture they assume they both can and", "[ footnote ] * the sensation being just as if every single scale was being forcibly moved forwards in rapid succession by the muscles of the animal .", "8 p . m . it had not moved , so also it was at 11 p . m . , when i went to bed , and when i came down the next morning it was still in exactly the same strange position ; i now thought it could not easily get out , so i lifted the glass to help it , but the moment i did so it scuttled away very fast .", "they always take a most peculiar attitude to void their f\u00e6ces , which , however , they do not perform frequently . i always know when they are about to do so ( if on the look - out ) , for with young and old their preparation is pretty much alike . they first lift up their tails in a semi - curvature towards their backs , then they lift their hind - feet from the floor , and so slowly void their one pellet ; which done they gently lower their hind - feet , and then their tail , and move away . on one occasion i saw the adult male lizard , which was quietly at ease among the koromiko twigs , leave its lair and climb up into the water - trough ; at first i thought it was going to drink , or to bathe in the water , but i was agreeably surprised in noting its actions ; having got into the salt - cellar , it placed its feet on both sides , cocked - up its big tail , and voided its pellet into the water ! that over , it leisurely descended to its former resting - place . in their voiding the f\u00e6cal pellet the anus of the animal is produced much more than would be supposed . their dung is of a long oval shape 4\u20135 lines long , and not unlike that of a sheep ; it is black in colour , but always with a white adjunct ( uric acid ) , somewhat resembling that of a fowl , which portion always appears first ; they void rather slowly . sometimes , especially after eating \u201cbluebottle flies , \u201d the portions of the fly in rather coarse fragments are very plain in the deposit ."]}

clarke et al . 1962 ; haddock et al . 2010 ) . luminescence of calanoid copepods is produced by glandular cells in the luminous glands , which are largely located on the caudal rami and legs ( fig . 1 ) , although their number and location vary considerably among families . most of the luminous species reported to date belong to the superfamily augaptiloidea , which contains the families arietellidae , augaptilidae , heterorhabdidae , lucicutiidae , metridinidae , and nullosetigeridae ( herring 1988 ) . within these families , the luminescent behavior of metridinidae and most heterorhabdidae , lucicutiidae , and augaptilidae are well known ( herring 1988 ) . based on a previous cladistic analysis of morphological features , the augaptiloidea is believed to have diverged very early in the evolution of calanoid copepods ( bradford - grieve et al . 2010 ) . except for the augaptiloidea superfamily , a single species in megacalanoidea ( megacalanus princeps ) was reported as luminous ( herring 1988 ) with very limited evidence , and it remains unverified . it is also unclear whether species in other superfamilies , such as centropagoidea , clausocalanoidea , and eucalanoidea , are luminous . this indicates that among the ten calanoid superfamilies , bioluminescent copepods are found almost exclusively in the superfamily , augaptiloidea . concerning bioluminescence behavior other than calanoid copepods , that of tiny pseudoplanktonic poecilostomatoid oncaea spp . is only notable ( herring et al . 1993 ) . one reason for the limited information on copepod bioluminescence is that correct copepod identification is very difficult . in addition to the species identification challenges , zooplankton sampling , especially in deep water , requires special equipment , including large - sized plankton nets , to collect sufficient numbers of specimens . furthermore , macro - and microscopic detection of weak and flash - type bioluminescence from tiny copepods is also difficult , especially if the specimen was damaged during the collection or manipulation by an investigator . therefore , a device , such as a luminometer , to detect weak bioluminescence of zooplankton is needed .", "issued from : a . t . barnes & j . f . case in j . exp . mar . biol . ecol . , 1972 , 8 .

pollinated taxa evolve most frequently from diurnally or nocturnally pollinated taxa ( e . g . from bee or moth flowers , respectively ) ? alternatively , the most common evolutionary route may have been from diurnal bird -

rimmed dish and eat its fill of worms . the dish simply kept the worms , which died as soon as they entered the saltwater , from getting blown all over the aquarium . in fact , it was always the meeting place for most of the fish in the aquarium where the biggest ruled at dinnertime ! besides being fairly disease resistant , these fish were usually reasonably priced .", "the third that i would recommend to new aquarists is the longfin bannerfish heniochus acuminatus , and / or the schooling bannerfish h . diphreutes . if the choice were h . acuminatus , i would limit their use to fish -

introduction of caribou . research in the park indicates that the translocation of caribou could be used to successfully establish a new herd . caribou habitat remains intact and plentiful within the historic range , and does not face the pressure of high human use or development .", "the most significant cause of decline leading to the extirpation of caribou in banff national park is likely the increased numbers of predators in response to an inflated elk population . monitoring of elk and wolf populations shows both these populations have declined , suggesting that conditions are favourable to support the persistence of introduced caribou .", "while conditions may be favourable , finding a sufficient number of caribou is the challenge . a wild source herd that is stable enough to support the translocation of animals for this and / or other recovery initiatives has not been found . the alternative is to breed caribou in captivity and release yearlings and / or family groups to the wild . banff national park biologists have taken the lead on exploring this option in partnership with other parks canada scientists , universities , and experts in the field . it has been determined that captive rearing would be a feasible option and suitable facilities have been investigated . if implemented , the translocation of these caribou to the wild would be combined with the management of elk populations and on - going monitoring of wolf pack movements to increase the probability of success in bringing caribou back to the wilderness of banff national park .", "in jasper national park , caribou conservation actions will aim to reduce the 5 key threats and stem population declines in the southern herd . these recovery actions will require the support of other parks canada experts in areas like elk and fire management , and of recreationists and other park users when recovery actions may affect recreational opportunities . within the southern jasper population , two herds of caribou are already low in numbers , isolated and declining . to become self - sustaining , these herds will require augmentation with additional caribou . jasper national park biologists have also been very involved in the captive rearing research , and feasibility assessments that have been carried out in banff . similar to banff , if implemented , herd augmentations would be combined with the management of elk populations and on - going monitoring of wolf pack movements . conservation actions for the northern a la peche herd will require cooperative management with the alberta provincial government and commercial operators in the area .", "because very few of the columbia south herd make use of parks canada lands , conservation actions will be largely guided by provincial and commercial partnerships and / or initiatives . within mount revelstoke and glacier national parks actions will focus on protecting important habitat , minimizing direct disturbance of caribou , monitoring and research , and careful fire management . partnerships with the province of british columbia will also be explored .", "if you visit jasper , banff , mount revelstoke , or glacier national parks , stop by the visitor centre to find out how and where you can learn more about caribou in these parks .", "travel responsibly in caribou habitat . if you see caribou , keep your distance to lessen your impact on the animals and avoid displacing them .", "leave your dog at home when venturing into caribou habitat . any dog , regardless of whether or not it looks like a wolf , can cause unnecessary stress for caribou .", "be part of the scientific monitoring \u2013 report your sightings to the visitor centre ! where , how many , did you notice calves , and do you have photos ? avoid important caribou habitat in winter -

and - down motion . the two sides of the fish change color to suit its bottom dwelling lifestyle , dark on the upper side and white on the lower side . the transition is completed in two to three weeks when the fish is a \u00be inch to one inch juvenile .", "in flounders and other flatfish , the sex of the individual fish is not determined until after the metamorphosis is complete .", "the young fish enter the bays during late winter and early spring , seeking shallow grassy areas near the gulf passes . as growth continues , they move farther into the bays and estuaries . some even enter coastal rivers .", "small southern flounder grow rapidly and may reach 12 inches in length by the end of their first year . females grow as much as three faster than males . female flounders grow rapidly for the first two years ; then their growth slows . approximate average lengths at each age for females are shown in the table . males seldom exceed 16 inches in length .", "southern flounders reach maturity at an age of about two years , though the age at maturity is reported to vary with location along the gulf coast . female southern flounders live for about seven years , while almost no males live past three years old . gulf flounders have shorter lifespans , about three years , though some studies suggest longer lives .", "during the first year after hatching , both male and female southern flounders remain in shallow , brackish estuaries , and even in fresher water . they gradually move to deeper waters as they age , but remain within inshore estuaries during the first year . in the late fall , they congregate in large numbers in the lower portions of the estuaries near the gulf of mexico . as water temperatures cool , the fish move offshore into the gulf to spawn , often in mass movements triggered by the arrival of a cold front . the return to inshore waters during the later winter and spring is much more gradual .", "while flounders tend to remain in a small area while in inshore waters and often return to the same home area , the spawning migrations of individual flounders can cover large distances . in tagging studies on the coast of georgia and the carolinas , tagged southern flounders have been observed to move 300 to 400 miles .", "after their first year of life , male southern flounders spend most of their lives offshore , seldom venturing into estuaries and bays . gulf flounders , especially males , seldom venture into inshore waters . thus , the majority of flounders caught by anglers in inshore waters are female southern flounders .", "southern flounders and gulf flounders are wonderfully adapted ambush predators that lie in wait on the bottom , hidden by extremely effective camouflage . they are able to change the coloration and patterning of their upper side to match the surrounding bottom . this is done with cells called chromatophores in the skin of their upper sides that are capable of moving a dark brown or black pigment called melanin . it is the same mechanism that allows squid and octopuses to camouflage themselves to match their surroundings .", "gulf flounders blending into the bottom near an off -

third also containing shrimp . it has been observed that as flounders get larger they don\u2019t eat larger fish like most other predatory fish , but simply eat more small fish .", "adult flounders consume from four to eight percent of their body weight daily . feeding activity is heaviest at water temperatures of 61 to 77\u00baf and during the three days following a first quarter moon and the three days before a new moon .", "as larvae and juveniles , flounders are preyed upon by a variety of fish . as adults , their camouflage and bottom dwelling lifestyle provide effective protection from most potential predators . dolphins and sharks are known to feed on adult flounders .", "flounders are popular sportfish and food fish throughout their range . on the northern gulf coast , flounders are popularly regarded as one of the \" big three \" of sportfish , along with red drum ( redfish ) and spotted seatrout ( speckled trout ) . large flounders are referred by proud anglers as \" doormats . \"", "flounders are caught not only on conventional hook and line tackle and techniques but by gigging . fishers walk or pole a small boat along the shore in very shallow water and shine a bright light onto the bottom to aid in spotting flounders , which are then speared with a gig . successful gigging requires relatively clear water and a calm night with little wind to ruffle the surface . keen eyesight and concentration are needed to discern the faint outline or the eyes of a camouflaged and buried flounder .", "most of the commercial catch of flounder occurs as incidental catch in shrimp trawls , though scattered individual commercial fishermen using gigs or rod and reel also fish for the market .", "broiled flounder , often stuffed with crabmeat , is one of the classic seafood dishes of the northern gulf coast . flounders are also enjoyed fried , baked , sauteed , and raw as sashimi . flounders have mild flavored white flesh , and may be cooked as whole fish or as filets .", "the status of both the southern flounder and the gulf flounder is listed as \" least concern \" on the iucn red list , though the population status of the gulf flounder is described as decreasing .", "flounders offer significant potential for aquaculture , due to their attractiveness as a table fish , their fast growth rate , and their tolerance for wide ranges of water temperature and salinity . research is being conducted with southern flounder in texas and north carolina . an aquaculture program in new hampshire with the similar winter flounder is being pursued for stock enhancement .", "the flounder fishery of the gulf of mexico , united states : a regional management plan , gulf states marine fisheries commission , publication no . 83 . includes an detailed and extensive biological description of southern and gulf flounders .", "species profile , southern flounder , h . v . daniels , southern regional aquaculture center publication no . 726 , north carolina state university", "southern flounder , natural history and fishing techniques in south carolina , dr . charlie wenner and john archambault educational report no . 20 , south carolina department of natural resources", "each link opens in a new window . close the new window to return here . some of these videos show flounder species other than the southern flounder or gulf flounder , but do illustrate typical flounder behavior .", "southern flounder eating a bull minnow -

eyed juncos also eat insects including beetles , moths , butterflies , caterpillars , ants , wasps , and flies . back to top", "over 50 years he made improvements to the gliders . he changed the shape of the wings so that the air would flow over the wings correctly . he designed a tail for the gliders to help with the stability . he tried a biplane design to add strength to the glider . he also recognized that there would be a need for power if the flight was to be in the air for a long time .", "analysts seem to agree . credit suisse upgraded its rating to outperform from neutral after the downgrade , and analyst grant saligari said flight centre offers value even if the weakness in the domestic -

dance , \" sometimes called \" fish - flight . \" with dangling legs , often clasping a fish or nesting material in his talons , the male alternates periods of hovering with slow , shallow swoops as high as 600 feet or more above the nest site . sustaining this display for 10 minutes or more , he utters repeated screaming calls while gradually descending in an undulating fashion to the nest . back to top", "the index is based on three factors : the share of students receiving pell grants ( which typically go to families making less than $ 70 , 000 ) ; the graduation rate of those students ; and the net cost , after financial aid , that a college charges low -

eyed juncos breed in forests across much of north america and at elevations ranging from sea level to more than 11 , 000 feet . they are often found in coniferous forests incuding pine , douglas - fir , spruce , and fir , but also in deciduous forests such as aspen , cottonwood , oak , maple , and hickory . during winter and on migration they use a wider variety of habitats including open woodlands , fields , roadsides , parks , and gardens . back to top", "perhaps the biggest question mark for flight centre is its dependence on graham turner . when he stepped aside as ceo in july 2005 to become executive chairman , its upward trajectory faltered and a series of profit downgrades earned it the label \" flightless centre . \" he returned eight months later . ten years on he says he expects to be there for another 20 years , and there ' s no doubt his vision and ability to engender loyalty are vital to the company ' s success .", "14 . 9 . you are a flight attendant , and the plane has fewer entertainment possibilities than previously planned , what would you do ? depends on when this situation is discovered . if this is noticed prior to takeoff and there is enough time to obtain more material , i would inform my superiors immediately so that the relevant resources can be put in . if this situation is discovered after takeoff , i would encourage passengers to share and minimize their time with the limited resources . 14souce : urltoken", "19 . 14 . what is your greatest accomplishment ? this is somewhat similar to the \u201cwhat is your greatest strength ? \u201d question and can be handled along the same lines . you want to pick an accomplishment that shows you have the qualities that the company puts value in and that are desirable for the position you\u2019re interviewing for . the fact is you may have several accomplishments you could pick from . pick one that will have the most impact . 19 urltoken useful material : top 12 skills for career success souce : urltoken", "as with topdeck , turner had a fresh take on how things should be done . unlike many retailers , flight centre has not funded growth through franchising -

undergoing a reappraisal based , among others , on molecular characters , and this is leading to a more stable taxonomy . conversely , the supraspecific classification of the cone snails has in the last 20 years become more unstable than ever . a plethora of nominal ( sub ) genera reflect subtle differences in shell form and radular morphology , but these are obscuring phylogenetic relationships between terminal taxa . while toxinologists are longing for a predictive classification that can be used as a roadmap for bioprospecting ( olivera , 2006 ; puillandre & holford , 2010 ) , the two genus - level classifications of cones proposed in the last 25 years ( da motta , 1991 ; tucker & tenorio , 2009 , 2013 ) have remained ignored outside the world of cone - shell collectors .", "recently published a phylogeny of the cone snails based on 330 species and sequences of three mitochondrial gene regions . in the present paper we utilized this molecular phylogeny as a foundation to establish a new genus - and subgenus - level classification of the conidae , with four genera (", ") . we also tentatively allocate all cone snail species currently considered as valid in worms , but not represented in the molecular phylogeny , to genera and subgenera based on their morphological characters .", "simplified version of the bayesian tree based on the concatenation of sequences of three mitochondrial gene regions ( coi , 16s , 12s ) and published by puillandre et al . ( 2014 : fig . 2 ) showing the proposed classification . genera and subgenera with multiple species are reduced to triangles , whose lengths are proportional to the branch lenghts . posterior probabilities ( > 0 . 95 ) are shown for each node . only ( sub ) genera with at least one sequenced representative are figured .", "proposing a classification based on a phylogeny mainly consists of ( 1 ) identifying the groups that will be named ; ( 2 ) attributing available names and , if necessary , establishing new ones , for the groups identified in ( 1 ) ; and ( 3 ) ranking these names .", "as far as possible , only well supported ( bootstrap probability > 90 % ; bayesian posterior probability > 0 . 95 ) clades ( and single - species lineages ) were linked to names . when several alternatives were possible ( e . g . one supported clade that includes two supported clades , both with available names attributable to them ) , other characters and properties , such as shell morphology , type of prey , bathymetric and / or geographical distribution , were considered in order to identify the most appropriate grouping to minimize within - group variability . overall , a conservative approach was adopted , to minimize the number of supraspecific taxa , both named and unnamed . in two cases ( pyruconus and cylinder ) we attributed a name to a group we recognized to be non - monophyletic ( although this non - monophyly is not supported ) , in order to avoid having to establish new names for many small clades . such polyphyletic , but morphologically consistent , genera may correspond to grades and in future each of the included clades may be shown to deserve its own name .", "as far as possible , a genus - group name ( i . e . a genus or subgenus ) was applied based on the position of its type species in the tree . if the type species of a nominal genus or subgenus had not been sequenced , application of the name was determined by reference to the morphologically most similar species used in the molecular analysis . if more than one name was applicable for a clade , the valid name was determined by the rule of priority . in the classification below , od refers to the fixation of type species by original designation , sd by subsequent designation and m by monotypy ( as defined by iczn , 1999 : art . 68 , 69 , respectively ) .", "all the 803 species of conidae listed as valid in worms ( 2014 ) were allocated to genera and subgenera , with two levels of confidence . those printed in bold font were placed in the classification based on the dna sequences of puillandre et al .

winning , nature - focused programs and has devoted his life to celebrating and preserving wildlife .", "famed naturalist and television personality david frederick attenborough was born on may 8 , 1926 , in a suburb of london , england . the second of three boys born to a university principal and a writer , he and his brothers would all find great success in their chosen careers , which would take them far from the city of leicester , where they were raised .", "indeed . david\u2019s older brother richard attenborough would become an academy award\u2013winning actor and director , and his younger brother , john would become a top executive at the italian car company alfa romeo . but despite their notable achievements , neither brother would lead a life as full of adventure and travel nor become as internationally beloved as david .", "despite the relative urban surroundings in which he lived , david attenborough\u2019s fascination with the natural world developed early and by the age of seven he had assembled a sizable collection of bird eggs and fossils . a lecture by famous naturalist grey owl that he attended in 1936 only served to deepen his interest , and after graduating from high school he was awarded a scholarship to study the natural sciences at the university of cambridge . upon completing his studies in 1947 , attenborough was called to serve for two years in the royal navy . however , any hopes he had that this would be his chance to see the world were dashed when he was posted to a ship in wales .", "in 1949 attenborough returned to london and found work as an editor for an educational publisher . the following year he began a training program at the bbc . in 1952 attenborough completed his training and began working for the television station as a producer , thus marking the beginning of what would be a milestone career , both at the bbc and far , far beyond it .", "attenborough married jane oriel in 1950 until her death in 1997 from a brain hemorrhage . the couple had two children together : a son and daughter .", "but attenborough was dissatisfied with the format of shows such as these , which often brought animals out of their natural habitats and into the distressing environment of a television studio . seeking to break with this unfortunate tradition , in 1954 attenborough launched a series titled zoo quest . the program filmed animals not only in captivity , but also in the wild , with the film crews traveling far and wide to capture images of the animals . with its on - location yet respectfully distant approach to filming wildlife , zoo quest established what are now the general standards for nature documentaries . the show was so successful with viewers that in 1957 the bbc established its natural history unit .", "despite his growing success , attenborough left the bbc in early 1960s to study social anthropology at the london school of economics . when bbc two was created in 1965 , however , attenborough was asked to return to the station as its controller . in both this capacity and as director of programming for both the bbc and bbc two , attenborough continued to collect milestones , pioneering such educational series as the ascent of man and civilisation , overseeing the bbc\u2019s transition to color television and having the wisdom to sign up an oddball comedy series called monty python\u2019s flying circus , starring john cleese and terry gilliam among others . in recognition of his contributions , in 1970 the british academy honored him with its desmond davis award . yet attenborough could not shake the passion that had remained with him since his youth , and in 1972 he resigned from his post at the bbc to follow his dreams into the wild .", "after leaving the bbc , attenborough began to write and produce tv series as a freelancer and quickly established himself with a string of successful programs , including eastwards with attenborough ( 1973 ) , which featured an anthropological study of indonesia , and the tribal eye ( 1975 ) , which examined tribal art throughout the world . but attenborough\u2019s greatest success would come in 1976 , when his program life on earth first aired . a 96 - episode examination of the role of evolution in nature , the show took attenborough and his crews around the globe , using cutting - edge filming techniques to bring wildlife into homes worldwide , gaining an estimated viewing audience of more than 500 million .", "the success of life on earth made david attenborough a household name and , in the decades that followed , allowed him to write , produce and host countless other series , including the trials of life ( 1990 ) , which focused on animal development and behavior ; the private life of plants ( 1995 ) , which used time - lapse photography to explore the botanical world ; attenborough in paradise ( 1996 ) , about his personal - favorite animals , birds of paradise ; and the 10 - part series the life of birds ( 1998 ) , for which he won a peabody award . he has also narrated numerous other programs , including the bbc\u2019s wildlife on one , which ran for 250 episodes from 1977 to 2005 , and the 2006 series planet earth , the biggest wildlife documentary ever made and the first show to air in hd on the bbc .", "the advancement of his age has done little to slow the intrepid attenborough , who into his 80s has continued both his globetrotting and his prolific output . completing his life trilogy , 2008 saw the airing of his series life in cold blood , an examination of reptiles , and in 2012 he began a series of programs filmed in 3 - d for the sky television network . attenborough\u2019s lifelong commitment to the natural world has also led him toward ecological activism both on the air and offscreen . he wrote and produced the environmentally themed state of the planet ( 2000 ) and saving planet earth ( 2007 ) . he is a patron of the organizations population matters , which examines the impact of human populations growth on the natural world , and the world land trust , which buys rainforests around the globe with the aim of preserving their wildlife .", "during his lifetime of achievement , david attenborough has received myriad honors . he was knighted in 1985 , received the order of merit from queen elizabeth in 2002 and holds at least 31 honorary degrees from british universities , including oxford and cambridge . he published his biography , life on air , in 2002 , and in 2012 was the subject of the bbc documentary attenborough : 60 years in the wild . in 2014 a poll revealed that he was considered to be the most trustworthy public figure in britain . attenborough is also the most traveled person in recorded human history , and is the oldest person to have ever visited the north pole . but in perhaps the most fitting tribute of all , several species of plants , insects and birds have been graced with attenborough\u2019s name , ensuring that it will live alongside the many creatures that he has spent his life celebrating and protecting .", "we strive for accuracy and fairness . if you see something that doesn ' t look right , contact us !", "david frost was an english media personality best known for his 1977 interviews with president richard nixon , which were adapted for a play and the critically acclaimed film frost / nixon . frost hosted several television programs in the united states and britain .", "a 90 -

brother to grade 2 placed hurdler porto rico and three time winner rhum , his dam was a chase winner in france and is from a family of jumping winners including maurice and lettiland . on his only start to date he finished 2nd behind a winner who went on to win again , the two of them pulling miles clear of the rest . a fair start to his career and likely to progress this season for a trainer with experience of handling similar types in recent years .", "peddlers was a top class hurdler with only the excellent hurricane fly proving to be better than him at cheltenham , he was the only horse to mount a serious challenger to the willie mullins horse and is clearly a class act . he is expected to take to the fences with ease and that coupled with his class makes him an obvious early favourite for the 2012 arkle chase and that is exactly the case at the moment . the arkle is one of the highlights of any cheltenham festival and as well as peddlers cross there are a number of other potential novice chasers for punters to look forward to . another one of them being backed at this ante - post stage is al ferof who of course won the supreme novices hurdle at the 2011 festival , and he may go straight over fences in 2011 / 12 for champion trainer paul nicholls .", "paul nicholls : has been the festivals top handler six times before , and although he\u2019s second favourite in the betting many feel he will struggle this year to add a seventh title . yes , the dicheat team will have plenty of ammo to go to war with , but they only really have big buck\u2019s as banker material in the world hurdle \u2013 and oscar whisky might have something to say about that ! that said , al ferof\u2019s task against sprinter sacre in the arkle has been made easier with peddlers cross now missing the race in favour of the jewson novices\u2019 chase , while the unbeaten zarkandar could lower the hurricane fly colours in the champion hurdle . kauto star should still line up for the gold cup , but even if he does all the pre -

1 , he does represent value .", "paul nicholls said : \u201ci think he is almost the forgotten horse of the festival . he runs in the supreme novices\u2019 hurdle and is a second - season novice . he was fourth in the triumph hurdle at the festival last year . he won his first two starts this season at cheltenham . he gave 7lb and beat river maigue on the second of them . we were then a little bit ambitious to run him in the christmas hurdle . i wanted to give him a run over christmas and have him really fresh for the festival . he came third to darlan and finished ahead of countrywide flame who was fourth . that is not bad form . i think he has a mark of 157 and he would compare favourably with al ferof and noland who won the supreme for us . he goes well fresh and has not really had his ground which is not worse than good to soft . he is really well . he wants a fast - run race so he can come from behind . i think he has a great chance and is a big price for the supreme \u2013 we have trained him just for that race and everything is going to plan . it looks a hot race this year but always does . \u201d", "the king george went back to yesteryear in 2011 in that it attracted the interest of horses campaigned over shorter , much like the famous edredon bleu days . somersby , captain chris , and master minded all took their chances but came up short against an inspired kauto star . this year there is grands crus , a spectacular kempton winner on boxing day , who ought to stay the flat 3 miles at kempton with his speed , and the promising silviniano conti of paul nicholls ' . one horse i will open up with as my first consideration for ante - post is al ferof for this race also . ruby walsh was very happy with him when running an excellent 3rd to somersby at ascot over 2m and he said he felt he would make a cracking ride in a king george next season . he was disappointing later on but he has loads of potential still and looked a quite raw chaser . you have finians rainbow a likely candidate with ryanair hero riverside theatre , and don ' t rule out a crack at a king george from the aforementioned sizing europe , who at his age might be campaigned fully at the longer trips . he ' d be very interesting if he did see it out and kempton would be the one race where i see it possible for him to go close over 3m .", "somersby remains in good heart and would prove another emotional winner of this race , but has often found one or two too good at this level in the past . the popular 11 year old had a fantastic season last time around , which saw him narrowly beat module in the haldon gold cup on his seasonal debut . either side of unseating at ascot , somersby ran belters to twice finish second to sire de grugy ; beaten 4 lengths in the tingle creek chase and 6 lengths in the queen mother champion chase , before disappointing behind sizing europe at punchestown . those efforts were top class form but somersby did disappoint on his return in the haldon gold cup , making a serious blunder which ended any chance and eventually finishing 46 lengths sixth to god\u2019s own last november . he ran a lot better next time out in mid - november , when 7 lengths second of six to al ferof at ascot . he then headed to sandown park for the tingle creek chase and ran another belter to finish second , for the second consecutive year , beaten 2 \u00bd lengths on the flat by dodging bullets . he then contested the clarence house chase and was well beaten when 15 lengths fourth to dodging bullets and sprinter sacre in mid - january . however , in the queen mother champion chase in march , he ran another absolute belter to finish 1 \u00bc lengths second to dodging bullets and has had a nice break since then .", "this \u00a3150 , 000 purchase is a full brother to stable star grands crus , grade 1 chase winner , and his sire dom alco has sired a number of top class horses such as al ferof , neptune collonges and silviniaco conti . he has just had the 2 starts in bumpers so far and in comparison to his brother has actually arguably looked a lot more straightforward , and certainly has shown greater promise in bumpers than grands crus did . he made his debut in heavy ground at ffos las where he travelled well at the head of the field before drawing well clear with ease eventually finishing 30l clear . he was getting almost at stone off the field that day due to him being a 3 year old , but it was a very impressive performance from such a young horse nonetheless . for his other outing he was stepped up to listed class where he again led for a long way . when pressured he hung left and ran a little green but battled on gamely and if not for being hampered when fading a little towards the end of the race he would have finished a lot closer than the 4l 4th that he did . again this performance showed huge promise and he looks like keeping the family tradition intact . grands crus wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t set particularly high targets on his first hurdling season and was kept to novice races and will be interesting to see how far they push gevrey chambertin this season , given like his brother his real future will be over fences in years to come .", "this french bred gelding is a son of al namix , a three time listed winner on the flat in france , who has sired several smart performers in recent years most notably grade 1 winning hurdler grandouet . his dam was a three time chase winner in france and he is a half - brother to grade 3 chaser centaure du rheu . he finished 3rd in a listed contest at auteuil before moving across to the nicholls yard and he improved markedly from his first run at newbury when he bolted up in heavy ground at taunton . he was fancied to run a big race at the cheltenham festival but that failed to materialise as he failed to fire in the fred winter . however , a big strong horse he was always likely to make his mark once jumping fences and he appeals as the type to reach a high level in that sphere .", "earlier on the card paul nicholls will bid for a third successive success in the jcb triumph hurdle trial , after the victories of sam winner and hinterland , with chepstow winner far west . he did it really nicely on debut and pulled 12 lengths clear of alan king\u2019s handazan , who came out and won at aintree next time . the son of poliglote has raced exclusively on soft ground to date , so it will be interesting to see how he handles these quicker conditions . dual winner mcvicar may find life tough under a double penalty and the main threat is likely to come from nicky henderson\u2019s vasco du ronceray who beat nothing of note at hereford on his british debut , but pulled 32 - lengths clear of the 109 - rated cool hand luke in taking fashion . he has already proven he handles better ground than far west and the son of al namix stayed on strongly to land an aqps contest at chateaubriant in august on his final start in france . clearly well thought of , he can put himself right in the triumph hurdle picture with success here . of the remainder shelford was smart on the flat in ireland and is one to note , but this would be a very tall order on his debut over hurdles .", "a few months later , he finished second in the champion bumper at cheltenham , he won the supreme novices ' hurdle a year later , and on saturday he won the paddy power gold cup .", "they can ' t all do that , but it is so vital that they train on if an owner has put their neck on the line .", "after cheltenian left my yard two years ago , he won on his first start for philip hobbs and then won the champion bumper next time out \u2013 he kept improving .", "if they don ' t , not only does it not advertise that you produced the horse , it can have a negative effect . buyers need to know that you have left something to work on .", "if an agent has success with a horse you nurtured , they will come back for more but , if they haven ' t been lucky , they won ' t put their hand up at the sales for one of yours . they would rather buy off someone else \u2013 it can be as simple and as silly as that .", "when i had him , he was owned by martin murphy , an uncle of my other half , barry , who is a son of ferdy murphy . he was the first horse that martin ever owned .", "michael , another murphy brother , has a nursery with about 60 babies 25 minutes away from where i am based in crossabeg , co wexford .", "he sources horses in ireland and france , where the former jockey guy petit , who is married to ferdy ' s daughter caroline , does all the buying , mainly of foals and yearlings . they are raised at michael ' s , and then i get a lot of them to train and sell .", "martin ' s current horse is thekingofconnemara , which was meant to run at cork on sunday . we pulled him out because of all the rain that fell , but it was nice to meet up and have a drink and a chat about the previous afternoon ' s events .", "thekingofconnemara was second on his debut at cork last month , and should go close wherever he goes next . when people give you horses like that to develop , you must fulfil your brief with each individual , because you are running a business .", "on the other hand , the competitive side of you wants to participate at the top level , and the hope would be that an organic consequence of our produce doing well will be that more owners leave horses here . of the 30 we have now , half are here to stay .", "penny ' s bill , which gave us our biggest win in the urltoken hurdle in 2009 , is still on the go , and kauto grand mogol is one of the younger brigade that is not for sale .", "a half -

bodied , shell - less marine gastropods comprising the mollusk taxon ( order or suborder ) nudibranchia . found on the bottom of oceans throughout the world , from reefs and sandy shallows to seabeds a mile deep , there are more than 3 , 000 known species of nudibranchs ( holland 2008 ) . the word \" nudibranch , \" which comes from the latin nudus for \" naked , \" and the greek brankhia for gills , describes their feathery gills and horns that many have on their dorsal sides ( ngs 2008 ) . nudibranchs sometimes are called sea slugs , although this term technically applies to a more inclusive taxon of marine gastropod mollusks , heterobranchia ( which includes , but is not exclusive to , the nudibranchs ) .", "nudibranchs are known for their often extraordinary colors , striking forms , and intricate patterns . such brilliant hues and fascinating shapes have added greatly to the wonder of nature . however , nudibranchs also provide important ecological functions , playing an important role in marine food chains , both as predator ( corals , sponges , anemones , barnacles , fish ) and prey ( fish , sea spiders , turtles , sea stars ) \u2014the latter role despite protective mechanisms ranging from poisons , to camouflage , to stinging cells .", "nudibranchs are members of the gastropod class ( gastropoda ) of mollusks . as gastropods , their body plan involves a torsion or twisting during larval development whereby the visceral mass twists 180 degrees in relation to the head . gastropoda ( meaning \" stomach -

shaped rhinophores ( highly sensitive head - mounted sensory appendages or tentacles ) detect odors .", "the name nudibranch is appropriate , since the dorids ( infraclass anthobranchia ) breathe through a branchial plume of bushy extremities on their back , rather than using gills . by contrast , on the back of the aeolids in infraclass cladobranchia , there are brightly colored sets of tentacles called cerata .", "nudibranchs occur in marine environments worldwide , in all the world ' s oceans , and can be found depths nearly a mile down , but are most abundant , and reach their greatest size and variation , in shallow , tropical waters ( ngs 2008 ) .", "while they lack shells , nudibranchs have developed other defense mechanisms : poisons , stinging cells , and camouflage .", "some nudibranchs have toxic secretions , mostly derived from the poisons of their prey but some have poisons of their own making ( holland 2008 ) . for example , some species consume toxic sponges and alter and store the poisonous compounds and secrete them from skin cells or glands as needed ( holland 2008 ) .", "some utilize stinging cells , ingested from anemones , fire corals , and hydroids , and employ these along their own extremities ( holland 2008 ) . nudibranchs that feed on hydroids can store the hydroid ' s nematocysts ( stinging cells ) in the dorsal body wall , the cerata ( frick 2003 ) . the nematocysts can move through the alimentary tract without harming the nudibranch . once further into the organism , the cells are brought to specific placements on the creature ' s hind body via intestinal protuberances . it is not yet clear how the nudibranches can protect themselves from the hydroids and their nematocysts , but special cells with large vacuoles probably play an important role .", "the vivid color of various nudibranchs helps to warn predators of such defenses . among the nudibranchs can be found the most colorful creatures on earth . the intense and bright coloring , such as especially seen on chromodorids , warns that they are distasteful or poisonous ( aposematic coloration ) .", "camouflage also is used . the anatomy and color of nudibranchs may resemble the texture and color of the surrounding plants , sponges , and substrate , allowing them to be difficult to discern . some may mimic toxic nudibranches .", "the tough - skin and abrasive quality of nudibranchs also may be a detriment ( holland 2008 ) . another way of protection is the release of a sour liquid from the skin . once the specimen is physically irritated or touched by another creature , it will release the slime automatically .", "nudibranchs are carnivorous , feeding on sponges , hydroids , bryozoans , coral , barnacles , eggs , tunicates , anemones , or small fish . some eat other nudibranches , including members of their own species . some graze on algae . some nudibranchs derive nutrition from ingested photosynthetic algae ( holland 2008 ) .", "despite their protective mechanisms , nudibranchs have a number of predators , including certain species of fish , sea spiders , turtles , crabs , and sea stars , as well as some people ( such as chileans and islanders from off alaska and russia ) who consume them after removing the toxic organs ( holland 2008 ) .", "nudibranchs are simultaneous hermaphroditic , and thus have a set of reproductive organs for both genders . they can rarely fertilize themselves , but can mate with any other mature members of their species ( ngs 2008 ) .", "nudibranchs typically deposit their eggs within a gelatinous spiral ( klussmann - kolb 2001 ) . some masses ( coils , ribbons , or tangled clumbs ) may reach up to two million at a time ( holland 2008 ) .", "the taxonomy of the nudibranchia is still under investigation and is subject to frequent revision . many taxonomists in the past treated the nudibranchia as an order , based on the authoritative work of johannes thiele ( 1931 ) , who built on the concepts of henri milne - edwards ( 1848 ) . newer insights derived from morphological data and gene - sequence research have supported the basic taxonomic divisions . on the basis of investigation of 18s rdna sequence data , there is strong evidence for support of the monophyly of the nudibranchia and its two major groups , the anthobranchia / doridoidea and cladobranchia .", "competing taxonomies remain , with nudibranchia variously considered an order or a suborder , and diverse classes and subclasses recognized ; for example , opisthobranchia may variously be considered an order or a subclass . ponder and lindberg ( 1997 ) recognize two subclasses within gastropoda ( orthogastropoda and eogastropoda ) , with nudibranchia placed within the subclass orthogastropoda . the integrated taxonomic information system recognizes nudibranchia as an order in the subclass opisthobranchia ( itis 2004 ) .", "the dorids ( infraorder anthobranchia ) have the following characteristics : the branchial plume forms a cluster on the posterior part of the neck , around the eyes . fringes on the mantle do not contain any intestines .", "the aeolids ( infraorder cladobranchia ) have the following characteristics : instead of the branchial plume , they have cerata . they lack a mantle . only species of the cladobranchia are reported to house zooxanthellae .", "schr\u00f6dl et al .

axis the station numbers ( north shelf : 17 , south shelf ; 6 , north slope : 5 , south slope : 9 ) . an area of 0 . 1 m 2 was considered for each sampling station . according to gray ( 2002 ) , when sample sizes are different , this method is preferable to rarefaction curves as proposed by sanders ( 1968 ) . species diversity was also estimated on a progressive spatial scale , according to gray ' s terminology ( 2000 ) : sample species richness ( sr s ) and species richness in large area s ( north shelf , south shelf , north slope , south slope ) ( sr l ) . together , the four regions comprised the total area species richness ( sr t ) . in order to calc\u00falate the proportion by which a given region is richer than the average of samples within the total area , whittaker ' s ( 1972 ) original beta diversity measure ( \u00df w = ( \u03b3 / \u03b1 ) - 1 ) was used , where \u03b3 is the total number of species resulting from merging a number of individual samples and \u03b1 is the average number of species per individual sample . beta diversity was measured over sectors [ \u00df w = ( sr l / mean sr s ) ] and total area [ \u00df w = ( sr t / mean sr s ) ] scales , where mean nsr s was the mean sample diversity .", "the species ' geographic and bathymetric distribution ranges were determined based on information available in the literature ( abbott , 1974 ; merlano & hegedus , 1994 ; rios , 1994 , among others ) and in the malacolog 3 . 1 electronic database ( rosenberg , 1993 - urltoken ) . geographic boundaries were established based on the south - western atlantic biogeographic provinces ( tropical , paulista , patagonic , malvinas ) defined by palacio ( 1982 ) using the endemism rate . for a better representation of the geographic distribution in the area , the species were grouped according to their occurrence in the north and south regions . the shelf samples provided 211 species : 91 from the south region , 179 from the north region , and 59 from both regions . from the slope samples , 96 species were used : 72 from the south region , 55 from the north , and 31 from both regions . depending on the bathymetric distribution , species were designated according to the zonation proposed by zezina ( 1997 ) and vinogradova ( 1997 ) as : shallow species ( 0 - 200 m depth ) , bathyal species ( 200 - 3 , 000 m ) , and abyssal species ( 3 , 000 - 6 , 000 m ) . species found in both the shelf and bathyal zones were designated eurybathic .", "we excluded pelagic species and juveniles ( 12 . 25 % of the total number of species ) from the analyses due , not only to the difficulties in identifying juveniles , but also to the aim of the present study , which is to analyze only benthic species . only individu\u00e1is identified to the species level or ones that could unequivocally be labelled as species were used in the analysis .", "a total of 9 , 845 specimens , 404 species and morpho -

slope transition zone is known to have a high species turnover rate ( rex et al , 1977 ) . more - over , species typically found on continental shelves and species from continental slope zones can coexist there , leading to higher species richness . however , evidence from studies done on the brazilian continental slope showed that the depth where this species turnover begins is variable . in this study , we found high species turnover at station 16 ( 300 m depth ) , where some deep - sea species , such as alvania xantias ( watson , 1885 ) , brookula spinulata ( absal\u00e3o , miyaji & pimenta , 2001 ) , and solariella lubrica ( dal\u00ed , 1881 ) showed a high dominance . miyaji ( 2001 ) found a rough change , with 8 % of sampled species occurring exclusively at depths greater than 400 m , whereas sumida & pires -

water and eurybathic species ( shallow - bathyal , shallow - bathyal - abyssal , bathyal - abyssal distributions ) at the slope stations . this pattern might constitute evidence of the slope ' s capacity to allow the co - existence of shallow and deep - water species .", "the depth gradient differed between the north and south regions : the north shelf showed the highest local , regional , and between - habitat species richness , whereas the south slope had the highest species richness , with values ci\u00f3se to the shelf ones . along local gradients , the general pattern observed is that species richness changes with depth , increasing from ca . 200 m to 1500 - 2500 m or more , and then decreasing towards the abyssal plain ( rex et al , 1993 , 2000 ; gray , 2002 ) . nevertheless , those unimodal patterns do not appear to be universal ( rex et al , 1997 ; stuart et al , 2001 ) , showing that the change in species richness is not related to depth itself ( gray , 2002 ) .", "in addition to the above - mentioned patterns , environmental features also changed with depth . both north and south slopes are narrow and steep , with more homogeneous bottoms that are dominated by silt fractions and a higher concentration of organic carbon .", "the disappearance of some tropical species towards the south suggests that the southernmost limit of the tropical province is located ci\u00f3se to 21\u00b0s , ac - cording to the results found for gastropods ( floeter & soares - gomes , 1999 ) ; cirripeds ( young , 1995 ) , and polychaetes ( lana , 1987 ) . nevertheless , the location of that limit remains uncertain ( absal\u00e3o , 1989 ; mello , 1993 ; briggs , 1995 ) . recently , joyeux et al . ( 2001 ) and floeter et al .

plained by the predominance of the warm and saline water mass of the brazil current ( bc ) ( absal\u00e3o , 1989 ; miyaji , 1995 , 2001 ) that flows southwards ( parallel to the shelf break ) to 35\u00b0s ( emilsson , 1961 ) . in that region , the bc mixes with the cold and less saline water mass of the malvina current and the water character - istics become markedly subtropical , with salinity and temperature ranging between 36 - 35 and 20\u00b0 - 10\u00b0c , respectively ( emilsson , 1961 ) . this fact influences the occurrence of cold - water affinity species ( semenov & berman , 1977 ; palacio , 1982 ) .", "however , the most significant factor for the main -

gions . this water mass acts as a vehicle for larval dispersal from cold , deeper regions to warm , shal - lower area s ( absal\u00e3o , 1989 ; miyaji , 1995 , 2001 ) , and extends northwards to espirito santo state ( gaeta et al , 1999 ) .", "important changes occur in the benthic faunal structure within the large vertical interval of the bathyal zone . the most obvious difference between shallow and deep - bottoms is the reduction in the number of latitudinal or climatic belts , both in terms of biomass and of faunal structures ( zezina , 1997 ) . as there is a simplification in the water mass structure of the continental slope floor region , a reduction in the number of faunal provinces is to be expected ( semenov & berman , 1977 ; zezina , 1997 ; culver & buzas , 2000 ) . culver & buzas ( 2000 ) found that the differences in benthic foraminifera fauna between shallow ( < 200 m ) and deep water ( > 200 m ) provinces at the same latitude were greater than between adjacent shallow water provinces .", "as expected , species occurring in the shelf zone were very distinct from those in the slope area , with only 24 ( out of 315 ) species shared between the two zones . when the latitudinal distribution of slope species is analyzed , the pattern is similar to the shelf species distribution . however , the number of tropical and tropical - paulista species increased in the south region .", "studies on geographical distributions of deep - sea species have shown a greater number of species with wider horizontal ranges ( vinogradova , 1997 ; zezina , 1997 ) . however , the present study found few species with wide range distributions towards the slope sta - tions . similar results were observed for the geographic distribution of genera . the restricted - range genera ( 1 to 2 provinces ) were represented by six more genera than the wide - range ones ( > 2 provinces ) . it is , however , possible that the lower number of samples for the slope region ( 14 stations vs . 23 in the shelf zone ) might induce such contradictory results . it is expected that enhanced sampling efforts will not only tend to increase the more sparsely distributed species , but also the number of \" rare \" endemic species ( alien & sand - ers , 1996 ) .", "zezina ( 1997 ) proposed biogeographic schemes for the bathyal zone based on a recent brachiopod distribution , which is very similar to the results found in the present study for gastropods firom the continental slope . this scheme proposed , for depths greater than 700 m in the northeast and central brazilian bathyal zone ( similar to the schemes for shallow - water fauna in the southwestern atlantic ) , a sub - area named the atlantic - central american ( divided into caribbean and brazilian provinces ) and the south brazilian - uruguayan subtropical area in the southeast and south bathyal zones . also , for recent brachiopods living below 700 m , zezina ( 1997 ) defined only one area for the entire southwestern atlantic ocean : the amphi - atlantic bathyal area within the central atlantic province .", "a great species turnover rate was observed between the shelf and slope . an analysis of the gastro - pod species distribution revealed a similar pattern of regional distribution in shelf and slope zones and a great difference between shallow and deep - water faunas . although the present analysis of biogeographic distribution patterns confirmed the existence of a transitional zone firom tropical to subtropical waters in the case of the slope zone , the sampling effort done on the southeastern atlantic slope is still too little and those results should be viewed with caution .", "the authors are indebted to dr . bastian knoppers for the invitation to join in the joint oceanographic project ii ( jops -

answer : when it\u2019s a starfish , a jellyfish , a crayfish , a shellfish or a blackfish ! we seem to like calling marine animals \u2018fish\u2019 regardless of whether they are or not . hundreds of years ago , marine mammals were thought to be fish , so calling a pilot whale a blackfish was understandable . but the others are clearly not fish , though there are fisheries for many of them ( including jellyfish in some places ! ) . these days , we are gradually replacing inappropriate names with better ones . crayfish are now called rock lobsters , and starfish are usually called sea stars .", "some sea stars are large and predatory . the seven - armed sea star ( astrostole scabra ) grows to over 40 cm across . it is easily recognised by its colour \u2013 the upper surface is greyish - purple , and its numerous tube feet are bright orange . seven - armed sea stars , and their cousins the 11 - armed sea stars ( coscinasterias muricata ) , are voracious , highly mobile predators that specialise in catching or forcing open molluscs such as paua and mussels . paua don\u2019t often move very fast , but i recently saw a yellow - foot paua ( haliotis australis ) being chased ( in a slow motion kind of way ) out of a crevice and across a rock by a roving seven - arm star .", "sea stars move , capture their prey , and force open shells using their tube feet , which are driven by an amazing hydraulic system . water is drawn into the body through a filter plate ( madreporite ) which is visible as a different - looking , often pale , plate on the upper surface . the water is pumped through a system of canals running around the mouth and along the arms . the tube feet , which are housed in grooves on the underside of each arm ( yes , their feet are inside their arms ! ) , extend as the water pressure increases . when the tube feet touch a shell or rock surface , the sea star pumps water out of the canals creating a slight vacuum , which turns the tips of the feet into minute suction cups . large sea stars can exert high pressures with their tube feet over several hours , enabling them to slowly overpower the muscles of their prey , and prise them open or off the rocks . no wonder that yellow - foot paua was motoring away !", "sea stars ( not starfish ) are built on a five rayed plan , although some stars have many more than five arms . their skin is set with limy plates and the mouth is underneath in the centre of the arms .", "all may be found in wellington waters . thanks to niwa ' s kate neill for her insights on reef star arms .", "habitat : open , exposed , rocky coasts . around wellington harbour they are abundant near burnham wharf and the shelly bay wharf .", "identification : a large star which reaches a span of about 35 cm . the number of arms varies but there are usually ten , eleven or twelve . colour varies from brown to grey .", "identification : the colour varies , but may be red , mottled green , or grey . although the usual number of arms is five , occasional examples are found with four or even as many as eight arms .", "identification : the colour pattern varies from tinted red through orange to grey or even light purple . the body is very stiff and the whole rim is lined with large , solid plates .", "brittlestars vary from true sea stars in that they have a small , round , central disc from which the arms radiate . the arms can break easily if the animal is disturbed , but they will grow back again . the snakestail star ( pectinura maculata ) is the largest brittle star in new zealand growing to approximately 350 mm across .", "habitat : observed at depths between 5 and 30 metres . noted in a crevice in breaker bay , at princess bay , and at 30 metres on a reef 1 km off lyall bay . two of them live at the sirens .", "identification : a fat , red , cushion - like starfish covered in white pom - poms .", "general : uri seems to be fairly rare and has been recorded officially about eleven times , not counting my sightings . the marine lab at island bay would welcome any uri reports ( not collected animals ) . valuable details would include location , depth and what it was living on .", "i have been keeping an eye on one in a cave at the sirens for over a year now . i missed the cave one day and swam a bit farther than normal , but found uri grazing on some weed . on the way back i found the cave i had been looking for . when i went in for a nosey , my original friend was still in there . uri just seems to move from one side of the cave to the other over the course of about three months . i find it intriguing that two rare sea stars happen to live near to the marine lab ."]}

distance gradient creates a forced perspective which results in false perceptions of the geometry of the bower , which is visible only to the female when she is standing in the avenue . from her point of view , all of the objects in the court appear to be the same size . consequently , she may perceive the court as being smaller than it actually is , and the male to be bigger .", "endler and his colleagues manipulated the decorative objects in the bower to reverse the gradient , with the large objects placed closest to the bower and the smaller ones further away , and found that the birds re - arranged the objects to restore the original pattern . this happened very quickly \u2013 in all cases , the positive gradient was restored within three days and the pattern was almost identical to the original by two weeks . the researchers were unsure about the function of the illusion , but speculated that it is important for females ' selection of a mate . they have now tested this hypothesis , and their results have just been published in the journal science .", "for the new study , endler and his colleague laura kelley observed the bowers built by 20 males in a eucalyptus wood on a queensland cattle ranch and monitored the birds ' mating behaviours using motion - sensitive digital video recorders . over a two - month period in late 2010 , they collected over 1 , 600 hours of footage , containing 129 courtship displays and 23 matings . they also took photographs of the bowers so that they could analyse the arrangement of the objects and the quality of the illusions they produced from the perspective of the females .", "analysis of these data revealed that the geometry of the bower was directly related to the mating success of its builder . the most successful males were the ones that had arranged the objects to form the most regular patterns on the floor of the court . there was also a direct relationship between the regularity of the pattern formed by the objects in the court and the strength of the forced perspective illusion .", "\" better gradients produce more even patterns when seen from within the avenue , \" says endler , adding that the males go to great lengths examining their work and rearranging objects to make the pattern as even as possible . \" males spend most of their time on the bower going into the avenue and looking out , then moving objects , going back into the avenue , and so on . when in the avenue , they also sometimes fix the twigs in the walls , too . \" the researchers still don ' t know if this results in an improvement of the illusion , however , but endler says they are now investigating this .", "as well as making the court seem smaller , the illusion created by a regular pattern may make the male ' s displayed objects stand out more , because a regular background pattern is less distracting than an irregular one . kelley and endler also note that the displayed objects are slightly larger than the perceived size of the objects arranged on the floor of the court . this may produce another illusion of relative size perception , called the ebbinghaus illusion , whereby an object is perceived as larger when viewed next smaller ones , or smaller when next to larger ones .", "during his courtship display , the male waves objects towards the female , causing their apparent size to increase . the researchers suggest that the ebbinghaus illusion could enhance the apparent size increase , making the display objects even more conspicuous to the female . they will be investigating this in the near future , says endler , by analysing the video footage to get more precise values of the relative and absolute size of the objects .", "chickens , thrushes , pigeons and parrots have all been shown be sensitive to various illusions , and males of many species display themselves to females at a characteristic angle and distance . this suggests that the use of illusions might be widespread in birds . females of many bird species are know to prefer males with larger coloured patches on their bodies , and it is possible that the ebbingaus illusion could be used by males of those species to increase the apparent size of their patches . so , too , could the related wundt -
