the subfamily deomyinae consists of four genera of mouse - like rodents that were placed in the subfamilies murinae and dendromurinae until very recently . they are sometimes called the acomyinae , particularly in references that antedate the discovery that the link rat , deomys ferugineus , is part of the clade . deomyinae is the older name and therefore has priority over acomyinae .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .

justification : listed as least concern in view of its wide distribution , tolerance of a degree of habitat modification , presumed large population , and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category .

this species is largely distributed in west africa and central africa . it is found from sierra leone in west africa to tanzania and kenya in east africa and southward to northern angola . the eastern range limits are not well resolved . in tanzania its distribution is patchy , and it is found around high mountains in the appropriate altitudinal and climatic habitat . at mount nimba ( guinea ) it occurs up to 1 , 600 m asl .

this species inhabits dense , moist grasslands , secondary growth , agricultural fields , abandoned farmlands , swamps and grassy plantations where there is abundant low cover . in primary and secondary forests , it occurs only in patches of grassland and herbaceous cover , most especially in open areas . it is a terrestrial and nocturnal , crepuscular species . this species has both an insectivorous and omnivorous diet .

there are no conservation measures in place ; in vieew of its wide range it is probably present in some protected areas .

this errata assessment has been created because the map was accidentally left out of the version published previously .

deomyines share no morphological characteristics that can be used to separate them from other muroids , though subtle aspects of the third upper molar have been suggested . this subfamily is united solely on the basis of shared genetic mutations . these conclusions have demonstrated good statistical support using nuclear and mitochondrial dna , and dna - dna hybridization .

because of the lack of physical characteristics supporting this group , it is very possible that the subfamily as it is currently recognized is subject to enlargement . many of the genera currently placed in the murinae or dendromurinae have never been included in a molecular phylogenetic analysis . potential surprises await when they are .

all genera are found in africa , suggesting the deomyines may have originated there . the spiny mice , acomys spp . , are also found in asia .

ein schönes beispiel einer buchstabenwanderung ( ampelwort ) ist das engl . " adder " = " natter " . ursprünglich hiess sie auch im englischen " nadder " bzw . " naedre " . aus " a naedre " wurde jedoch irgendwann " an adder " . zusammen mit dem " an " merkt man den buchstabenklau kaum , aber allein ist der verlust offensichtlich , aber daran denkt heute kaum noch ein engländer .

das engl . " animal " = " tier " und dt . " animalisch " gehen zurück auf lat . " animal " = " tier " , " lebewesen " .

etymology : middle english butterflye , from old english butorfloge : butor , butere , butter ; see butter + floge , fly ; see fly2 .

word history : is a butterfly named for the color of its excrement or because it was thought to steal butter ? it is hard to imagine that anyone ever noticed the color of butterfly excrement or believed the insect capable of such theft . the first suggestion rests on the fact that an early dutch name for the butterfly was boterschijte . the second is based on an old belief that the butterfly was really a larcenous witch in disguise .

here ' s a little bagatelle ( or , very imprecisely , a bugatelle ! ) of entomology etymology . i ' ve long been fascinated by the large variety of distinct words for " butterfly " in various indo - european languages . here is my butterfly collection , which i hope will be of more than " e - vanessa - nt " interest .

( das wortspiel zu " e - vanessa - nt " erklärt sich durch engl . " evanescent " = " flüchtig " und " vanessa atalanta " = " samtschwarzer schmetterling mit weißen flecken und roter binde " . )

dieser artikel ist den " schmetterlingen " , " nachtfaltern " und " raupen " gewidmet . man findet dazu viele übersetzungen und etymologische hinweise ( wenn auch nicht zu allen übersetzungen ) .

einige quellen ( oxford english dictionary ) behaupten , die " butterfliege " erhielt ihren namen , weil ihr kot der butter ähneln sollte . ( dazu paßt z . b . niederl . " boterschijte " . ) andere quellen ( webster ) gehen von einer mystischen erklärung aus , wonach hexen in der gestalt von schmetterlingen rahm und butter stahlen .

der griech . " petaloudia " ( modern greek ) geht zurück auf " petal " = " ( blüten - ) blatt " und findet sich noch im wissenschaftlichen namen " lepidoptera " für " schmetterling " , " falter " , " schuppenflügler " .

der lat . " papilio " führte zu frz . " papillon " = " schmetterling " und engl . " pavilion " = dt . " pavillon " = " ein zelt mit flügeln " . ( das lat . " pipilare " = " piepen " kann ich jedoch nicht mit " schmetterling " in verbindung bringen - oder haben sie schon ' mal einen " schmetterling " " piepen " hören ? )

der ital . " farfalle " = " schmetterling " findet sich wieder als bezeichnung für ähnlich geformte nudeln . ausserdem kann die " cravatta a farfalla " als " fliege " getragen werden .

der dt . " schmetterling " ist nicht nur biologisch sondern auch sprachlich mit der " butterfliege " verwandt . sein name leitet sich ab von einem sächsischen wort " schmetten " , tschesch . " smetana " = " both meaning " rahm " , " sahne " ( vgl . " schmand " = " milchrahm " ) .

( im " schmettern " einer arie kann man eine verwandschaft zum lat . " pipilare " erkennen . )

der " falter " , den man sowohl im " tagfalter " = " schmetterling " als auch im " nachtfalter " = " motte " findet kann entweder das " falten " der flügel beschreiben . das ahd . " fifaltra " könnte aber auch auf lat . " pipilare " zurück gehen .

the band wanted a name that sounded heavy and beautiful at the same time . trivia : their biggest hit was " in a gadda da vida " , which was originally called " in the garden of eden " . the singer was so trashed on lsd one rehearsal that it came out " in a gadda da vida " , and the band decided that was a better name for the song .

welcome to the fourth issue of cultural entomology digest . this issue focuses on butterfly and moth cultural entomological references . butterflies are perhaps the most popular group of all insects and cary symbolic meaning for almost every human culture . their general beauty and harmless demeanor allow many individuals to perceive this group in a positive light when compared to most other insect groups .

" butterfly " singt sich irgendwie leichter als " schmetterling " - deswegen kommt dieser internationale klassiker gleich mehrsprachig daher . danyel gerard blieb zwar damit so etwas wie ein " one - hit - wonder " , belegte aber 1971 immerhin ganze 14 wochen lang platz 1 der singlecharts . durch die mehrsprachige version kann man hier sogar von einem " eurovisionären " hit sprechen .

imelda marcos was once the ' steel butterfly , ' the beautiful wife and confidante of philippine dictator ferdinand marcos .

apparently the german word for butterfly is " milchdieb , " which translates as " milk thief . " evidently there was a theory in the middle ages that the little critters steal milk and butter , a myth possibly based on their light , colorful wings and delicate appearance . or perhaps they really did steal milk and butter . it ' s not impossible .

[ q ] from david powell : “could the word butterfly , which has no obvious connection with butter ( outside of its name ) , possibly be an ancient corruption of flutter by , which is exactly what the creature does ? i can imagine a child mispronouncing it thusly and the result sticking in our language . ”

engl . " castrate " , dt . " kastrieren " geht zurück auf lat . " castrare " , das wiederum auf ein substantiv mit der bedeutung " messer " , " schneidewerkzeug " zurück geht . eine sanskritische variante hat die bedeutung " schlachten " .

bei der " kastration " werden die hoden des männlichen tieres entfernt , abgeschnitten .

die engl . " caterpillar " = " raupe " hieß um 1440 noch " catyrpel " und geht zurück auf frz . " chatepelose " = " haarige katze " .

interessant ist der zusammenhang von engl . " pile " = " stapel " und engl . " pilose " = " behaart " , die auf lat . " pilus " = " haar " zurück gehen .

das haar findet man nicht nur in der suppe sondern auch in der " pille " , die auf lat . " pila " = " ball " und weiter auf einen " haarknoten " zurück geht .

die französische " raupe " wird nicht " haarige katze " sondern " haariger hund " genannt : frz . " chenille " , von lat . " canicula " , dem diminutiv von " canis " = " dog " .

der engl . " coach dog " , " carriage dog " wurde darauf abgerichtet , hinter einer kutsche herzulaufen .

das engl . " coach - horse " = " kutschen - pferd " , scheint eine spanisch beeinfusste bezeichnung zu sein .

" cob " = " spider " = " spinne " , " cobweb " = " spider web " = " spinnennetz " .

das engl . " cobweb " hiess mittelengl . noch " coppeweb " , altengl . " attorcoppa " = " spider " . das altengl . " attor " = " gift " , also war die altengl . spinne ein " gifttasse " oder aber auch " giftkopf " , da man die spinne als " kopf mit beinen " ansehen konnte .

der ohrwurm ist gleich in zweifacher weise erklärungsbedürftig . zunächst das tier mit der bezeichnung " ohrwurm " und dann der " ohrwurm " im übertragenen sinn , als melodie , die man nicht mehr aus dem kopf bekommt . der name des tieres könnte auf seine form zurückgehen und auf die angst der menschen , dass er tatsächlich nachts ins ohr eines menschen krabbelt .

im " kluge " findet man unter " ohrwurm " die aussage , dass der früheste nachweis bereits im 14 . jh . zu finden ist . für " earworm " soll es schon altenglische belege seit dem 8 . jh . geben .

interessant finde ich jedenfalls , dass der ursprung bereits auf die antike zurückgeht . ohrwürmer fanden damals tatsächlich den weg in das menschliche ohr . allerdings nicht lebend sondern getrocknet und zu pulver zerstossen . man sprach diesem pulver heilende wirkung bei der erkrankung des ohres zu . genannt wurden sie lat . " auricula " = " öhrchen " , " ohrläppchen " . im französischen hiessen diese mittelchen " cure - oreille " = " ohren - reiniger " .

später ging die ursprüngliche bedeutung verloren und ins gegenteil gedeutet . man sagte den ohrwürmer dann nach , auslöser für ohrenerkrankungen zu sein und befürchtete sogar , dass sie sich ins gehirn durcharbeiten , so dass sie eben zu frz . " perce - oreille " = " ohrbohrer " entwickelte .

erstaunlich finde ich schon , dass sich die übertragene bedeutung " ohrwurm " für eine " eingängige melodie " erst um 1987 gebildet haben soll .

da es jedoch schon die neueengl . bezeichnung " earwig " = " ohrwurm " gibt , ist die annahme berechtigt , dass der dt . " ohrwurm " ( im musikalischen sinne ) als lehnübersetzung " earworm " ins englische fand .

in einem beitrag zur mailingliste der ads vom 04 . 03 . 2005 wird die frage aufgeworfen , wann " earworm " im englischen und " ohrwurm " im deutschen in gebrauch kam . als frühester nachweis für " earworm " wird in dem beitrag die newsday - ausgabe 9 / 18 / 1987 mit einem zitat des saxophonisten bobby watson angeführt : " i like to create little earworms " , he says . " that way people who don ' t know the technical side of the music will start humming " .

i find the figurative " ohrwurm " ( german ) at google groups from 1991 , the appropriate english " earworm " from 1993 .

da die beyden ersten arten ohrwürmer , den neuern erfahrungen zu folge , die ohren der menschen nicht mehr aufsuchen als ein jedes anderes insekt , so ist sehr wahrscheinlich , daß sie ihren nahmen von ihrem zangenförmigen , einem " öhre " nicht unähnlichen schwanze haben ; ( s .

word spy has posted a 12 / 22 / 1987 article from the whole earth review , talking about ohrwurms in the figurative sense , so it seems unlikely that the english term could have predated the german term .

. . . i should note that most authorities feel that the " gull " in " gullible " is not a " seagull " ( = " möwe " ) , but comes from an earlier sense of the word , meaning a " young bird " of any species . and young birds , as you seem to have discovered , are easy to fool . . . .

diese englische redewendung ist verwandt mit dem dt . " einem geschenkten gaul schaut man nicht ins maul " . hinter beiden redewendungen geht es um den zustand der zähne des pferdes . je länger ( und vergibter ) sie sind , umso älter ist das pferd . die englische redewendung bedeutet dabei " i heard it from a reliable source " = " etwas aus erster hand , direkt aus der quelle erfahren " . die deutsche redewendung besagt , dass man bei einem geschenk nicht allzu anspruchsvoll sein soll .

darauf geht auch der ausdruck " long of tooth " zurück , um zu besagen , dass jemand schon recht alt ist ( das zahnfleisch geht zurück = die zähne werden länger ) .

zu den informationen aus dem pferdemaul gibt es aber auch noch eine andere geschichte . die besagt , dass die briten während der napoleonischen kriege prostituierte als informantinnen einsetzten . ihre aufgabe war es wichtige informationen von den französischen offizieren zu erhalten , um sie den englischen " intelligence officers " zu übermitteln .

in den berichten wurden diese informationen mit " i got it straight from the whore ' s mouth . " gekennzeichnet . im laufe der zeit wurde aus " whore ' s mouth " = " mund der hure " das maul des pferdes " horse mouth " .

bei " urltoken " findet man weiter engliche redewendungen , die sich auf " horse " beziehen .

interessant ist z . b . auch die redewendung " to bet on the wrong horse " , das unterschiedliche kulturen erkennen lässt . während man in england auf das falsche pferd wettet , setzt man in deutschland auf die falsche karte .

all of these are unlikely given the early metaphorical uses of cat and dog to signify something noisy and violent . the most likely explanation is the simplest . the noise and violence of a storm is the metaphorical equivalent of a cat and dog fight .

" jaywalk " means : to cross a street carelessly or in an illegal manner so as to be endangered by traffic , and dates from 1919 .

jay birds who ventured out of their rural forests and into the urban areas often got confused . they often endangered their lives walking anywhere where they wanted , including into traffic . city people laughed at their strange behavior . so , now anyone who crosses the street in a reckless or illegal way is called a jaywalker ( and is sometimes fined ) .

die engl . " moth " = " nachtfalter " geht mit der dt . " motte " auf eine skand . " mott " = " maggot " = " made " zurück .

der engl . " ox " und der dt . " ochse " gehen auf ein vorgerman . " * ukhson " und ide . " * uksin " zurück .

die bedeutung von ahd . " ohso " soll " samenspritzer " gewesen sein .

die bezeichnung engl . " oxbow " für eine " flussschleife " ist seit 1797 nachweisbar und geht auf das gebogene brustholz , einem teil des geschirrs zurück , das seinen namen seit 1368 hat .

" oxen " is the only true survival in mod . eng . of the o . e . weak plural .

" oxbow " " semicircular bend in a river " is first recorded 1797 , amer . eng . ( new england ) , in ref . to the shape of the piece of wood which forms the collar for an ox yoke ( so called from 1368 ) .

der engl . " petrel " ( 1676 " pitteral " , 1703 " petrel " by dampier ) könnte auf den apostel " petrus " zurückgehen . dieser soll ähnlich dem dt . " sturmvogel " über das wasser geschwebt sein . wenn es sich dabei nicht um eine fehldeutung handelt , dann ist engl . " petrel " eine verkleinerungsform von " petrus " , etwa " peterle " .

die " bajo - nuevo - bank " wurde auch als " petrelinsel " bezeichnet - vielleicht fand man hier eine große anzahl sturmvögel vor .

mammals are classified in 27 to 29 orders , 145 families , 1272 genus , . . .

this selection list introduced mammal species , grouped by the principle of comparative anatomy , morphological similarity and geographical location . ( see the menu taxinomy , for more information on the classification of mammals ) .

scientists consider that a species is distinct by the fact that it can not reproduce with each other . this list shows all the species listed by their common name .

das altnorw . " hreinn " hat die bedeutung " horn " , " geweih " + " dýri " = " tier " .

middle english " reindere " : old norse " hreinn " , " reindeer " ; see " ker - " in appendix i + middle english " der " = " animal " ; see " deer " .

das engl . " reindeer " = dt . " rentier " ist eigentlich ein " weisser schimmel " , da schwed . " ren " schon " rentier " heißt . das aus nordischen sprachen stammende " ren " ist eine hirschart , die in diesen unwirtlichen gegenden ( polargegend ) vorkommt . im deutschen wurden aus den " rens " bzw . den " renen " die " rentiere " , das schwed . " ren " zu " rentier " .

eine mögliche " übersetzung " von " rentier " wäre etwa " geweih - tier " .

da es heute oft mit kurzem vokal gesprochen wird , gibt es der fälschlichen vermutung nahrung , dass es sich um ein " renn - tier " handelt .

auch die im englischen naheliegende " übersetzung " als " gezügeltes tier " ( engl . " rein " = " zügel " ) ist eine volksetymologische deutung .

möglich wäre ein zusammenhang mit griech . " krios " = " widder " .

" i know about 1 , 200 words for reindeer - we classify them by age , sex , color , antlers , " said nils isak eira , who manages a herd of 2 , 000 reindeer in north norway .

the word " caribou " derives from the micmac word " galipu " and entered english in the 1660s . presumably , english - speaking hunters in north america adopted this native american word without realizing that the species already had a perfectly good english name in " reindeer " .

etymology : today ' s word " rentier " was imported from old norse " hreindýri " from " hreinn " = " reindeer " , the more usual name for the animal + " dýr " = " deer " . also swedish " rendjur " or just " ren " , da . " rensdyr " , dutch " rendier " , german " rentier " .

the middle english word " deer " , referred to all animals , as does its german cousin " tier " = " animal " .

old norwegian and old icelandic " hreinn " = " reindeer " comes from the same pie root as " horn " .

der " wort - detektiv " weist auch auf den " weisser schimmel " - charakter des wortes hin .

" reindeer " first appeared in middle english ( as " rayne - dere " ) way back around 1400 ( if not earlier , records from the period being a bit spotty , of course ) . even though the word is very old , the second element is definitely our modern word " deer " . the " rein " part derives from the old norse " hreinn " , which was simply the norse word for the animal . so the combination " reindeer " actually amounts to " reindeer deer " .

two of santa ' s reindeer were originally named " dunder " and " blixem " , not " donner " and " blitzen " .

die namen der rentiere von santa claus sind : " rudolph " ( the red - nosed reindeer ) , " dasher " , " dancer " , " prancer " , " vixen " , " comet " , " cupid " , " donder " ( oder " donner " ) und " blixen " ( oder " blitzen " ) .

insbesondere um die namen der beiden letzten ranken sich einige sprachliche legenden . sicher ist wohl , dass sie ursprünglich " dunder " und " blixem " hießen und erst später in " donner " und " blitzen " umbenannt wurden .

the story of how two reindeer named " dunder " and " blixem " became " donner " and " blitzen " is a complicated and confusing one , in part because a good deal of mystery remains about the origins of the poem that named them , " a visit from saint nicholas . " we ' ll do our best here to trace the history of how the poem - and the names of two reindeer - changed over time .

claim : the character " rudolph the red - nosed reindeer " was created for the montgomery ward group of department stores .

der engl . " rentier " ( den man gelegentlich auch als dt . " rentier " ( mensch ) antreffen kann ) hat mit dem dt . " rentier " ( tier ) allerdings nichts zu tun . der engl . " rentier " und der dt . " rentner " = " ruheständler " gehen zurück auf frz . " rente " = " jährliches einkommen " und weiter auf lat . " reddere " = " zurückgeben " .

in nordengland wurde die bürgerinitiative " sos " = " save our squirrels " gegründet , um die roten gegen die aus den usa " eingewanderten " grauen eichhörnchen zu schützen .

save our squirrels is the largest single - species conservation project taking place in the uk at present . launched in july 2006 , the project has the remit to deliver red squirrel conservation , information , and access projects in northumberland , cumbria , north yorkshire , and north merseyside .

der engl . " petrel " könnte auf den apostel " petrus " zurückgehen . dieser soll ähnlich dem dt . " sturmvogel " über das wasser geschwebt sein . wenn es sich dabei nicht um eine fehldeutung handelt , dann ist engl . " petrel " eine verkleinerungsform von " petrus " , etwa " peterle " .

sein vorname " stormy " könnte darauf zurück gehen , dass diese vögel während eines sturms gerne schiffe umflogen in der hoffnung auf kleinere organismen aufnehmen zu können .

der " stormy petrel " ( frz . " pétrel - tempête " ) wird auch im übertragenen sinn als " schlechtes zeichen " oder auch für einen " streitbaren menschen " benutzt .

den " stormy petrel " gibt es auch im übertragenen sinn , als " schlechtes omen " , " schlechte vorahnung " .

. . . the term " stormy petrel " in general usage anm . : als " schlechtes zeichen " ) has come to refer to a harbinger of trouble ; perhaps people believed that the bird was seen just before a storm . . . .

the complete stormy petrels list , categorized by part of speech , is now available in html format . if you have new entries to add , send them to me . and let me know if you think something on the list doesn ' t belong there .

hier gibt der autor jed hartman dem " stormy petrel " noch eine weitere übertragen bedeutung als sprachliche kategorie . seine " stormy petrels list " enthält wortverbindungen in denen mindestens ein wort auf das vorhandensein eines anderen wortes angewiesen ist . ich weiß , das mir auch im deutschen schon des öfteren solche wortverbindungen aufgefallen sind . im moment fällt mir nur der " nießer " ein , der immer einen " nutzen " haben muß , der " nutznießer " - oder umgekehrt als " nießnutz " = " nutzungsrecht " , wörtlich " genießungs ( - recht ) " .

concept and registry by elliott moreton . items provided by elliott moreton except where otherwise noted . page maintained by jed hartman .

sooner or later i ' ll mark each of the petrels as " first - tier , " " second - tier , " or " joke , " as defined by elliott on the comments page . in the mean time , you ' ll have to figure out which category each item is in on your own .

all petrels are stormy ( except , of course , those that aren ' t . this item remains on the list for historical reasons . )

" stormy petrel " is an alteration of earlier " pitteral " , probably so named in allusion to " st . peter ' s walking on the sea " , from the fact that the bird flies close to the water in order to feed on surface - swimming organisms and ship ' s refuse ; called " stormy " because in a storm the birds surround a ship to catch small organisms which rise to the surface of the rough seas ; when the storm ceases they are no longer seen .

the word " underdog " is said to have originated in a 19th - century song or poem by david barker ( " the under - dog in the fight " ) . can anyone supply any information about when this barker text was first published , and whether it was a song or a poem ?

. . . apparently his first well - known poem was published in the new york evening post in 1854 ( it says here ) .

barker ' s book " poems " was published in 1876 , apparently . no copy is immediately available to me . presumably the poem in question ( whether or not it ' s in this book ) was published in a periodical at some earlier date .

the poem " the under - dog in the fight " was apparently well known . this expression apparently was taken up by mark twain ( i don ' t know what date ) . i don ' t know whether it began with barker or whether it was already a stock phrase before his poem .

1862 : dennar stuart , " camp - meeting in tennessee " , in harper ' s 26 ( 151 ) : 97 - 102 : p . 100 :

" and , bretheren , you and i know that occasionally , if not oftener , i ' ve been the under - dog in the fight . . . . "

the distribution of the species is not fully known . according to the study by w . verheyen et al . , the species is found in west africa from the lower reaches of the congo river in eastern democratic republic of the congo and in east africa from uganda through western kenya to northern tanzania . however it remains to be seen whether l . ansorgei extends from east africa along the northern and southern rim of the congolese central forest block to the lower reaches of the congo river , or the range along the lower congo is a historical range of the species .

the species was first identified as l . ansorgei in mumias , nyanza province in 1896 . it is usually included in l . sicapusi , but w . verheyen et al . consider it as a distinct species in their study . l . manteufeli ( matschie , 1911 ) and l . pyrrhus ( heller , 1911 ) are considered synonyms of l . ansorgei by mammal species of the world .

assessing reproductive and endocrine parameters in male largescale suckers ( catostomus macrocheilus ) along a contaminant gradient in the lower colu . . . - pubmed - ncbi

persistent organochlorine pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls ( pcbs ) , dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene ( p , p ' - dde ) , and polybrominated diphenyl ethers ( pbdes ) are stable , bioaccumulative , and widely found in the environment , wildlife , and the human population . to explore the hypothesis that reproduction in male fish is associated with environmental exposures in the lower columbia river ( lcr ) , reproductive and endocrine parameters were studied in male resident , non - anadromous largescale sucker ( catostomus macrocheilus ) ( lss ) in the same habitats as anadromous salmonids having conservation status . testes , thyroid tissue and plasma collected in 2010 from longview ( lv ) , columbia city ( cc ) , and skamania ( sk ; reference ) were studied . sperm morphologies and thyrocyte heights were measured by light microscopy , sperm motilities by computer - assisted sperm motion analysis , sperm adenosine triphosphate ( atp ) with luciferase , and plasma vitellogenin ( vtg ) , thyroxine ( t4 ) , and triiodothyronine ( t3 ) by immunoassay . sperm apoptosis , viability , mitochondrial membrane potential , nuclear dna fragmentation , and reproductive stage were measured by flow cytometry . sperm quality parameters ( except counts ) and vtg were significantly different among sites , with correlations between vtg and 7 sperm parameters . thyrocyte heights , t4 , t3 , gonadosomatic index and fulton ' s condition factor differed among sites , but not significantly . sperm quality was significantly lower and vtg higher where liver contaminants and water estrogen equivalents were highest ( lv site ) . total pcbs ( specifically pcb - 138 , - 146 , - 151 , - 170 , - 174 , - 177 , - 180 , - 183 , - 187 , - 194 , and - 206 ) and total pbdes ( specifically bde - 47 , - 100 , - 153 , and - 154 ) were negatively correlated with sperm motility . pcb - 206 and bde - 154 were positively correlated with dna fragmentation , and pentachloroanisole and vtg were positively correlated with sperm apoptosis and negatively correlated with atp . bde - 99 was positively correlated with sperm counts and motility ; t4 was negatively correlated with counts and positively correlated with motility , thus indicating possible androgenic mechanisms and thyroid endocrine disruption . male lss proved to be an informative model for studying reproductive and endocrine biomarkers in the lcr .

total adult population size is unknown but very large . this species is common in much of its range .

trend over the past 10 years or three generations is uncertain but likely relatively stable .

( 200 , 000 - 2 , 500 , 000 square km ( about 80 , 000 - 1 , 000 , 000 square miles ) ) range includes western north america , mainly west of the rocky mountains ; arctic basin from peace river drainage , british columbia , to smokey river drainage , alberta ; pacific slope from nass river , british columbia , to snake river drainage ( below shoshone falls ) , idaho and nevada , and coquille river , oregon ; an isolated occurrence record exists in the mackenzie river , northwest territories ( page and burr 1991 ) .

usually mature by 4th or 5th year of life . usually spawns in the spring when water temperatures reach 46 - 48 f . a female may deposit as many as 20 , 000 eggs ; eggs hatch in about 2 weeks ( scott and crossman 1973 ) .

life span may be up to 11 years . predators of young suckers include fishes and fish eating birds . in shallow waters adults may be preyed upon by large mammals and birds ( e . g . , bears and eagles ) .

habitat includes lakes , and pools and runs of medium to large rivers ( page and burr 2011 ) . usually this sucker is in shallow water , but sometimes it occurs as deep as 80 feet . in lakes , it is often near stream mouths , along weedy shores , or in backwaters . fry move to shallows to feed by day and to deeper water at night . spawning may occur in sandy areas of streams ; also along lake shorelines in areas with sand or gravel substrate .

a bottom feeder . eats aquatic insect larvae , crustaceans , snails , algae , detritus , etc . young suckers feed primarily on plankton .

occurrences are based on evidence of historical presence , or current and likely recurring presence , at a given location . such evidence minimally includes collection or reliable observation and documentation of one or more individuals ( including eggs and larvae ) in appropriate habitat .

occupied locations that are separated by a gap of 15 km or more of any aquatic habitat that is not known to be occupied represent different occurrences . however , it is important to evaluate migrations and seasonal changes in habitat to ensure that spawning areas and nonspawning areas for a single population are not artificially segregated as different occurrences simply because there have been no collections / observations in an intervening area that may exceed the separation distance .

data on dispersal and other movements generally are not available . in some species , individuals may migrate variable distances between spawning areas and nonspawning habitats . separation distances ( in aquatic kilometers ) for catostomids are arbitrary but reflect the presumption that movements and appropriate separation distances generally should increase with fish size . hence small , medium , and large catostomids , respectively , have increasingly large separation distances . separation distance reflects the likely low probability that two occupied locations separated by less than several kilometers of aquatic habitat would represent truly independent populations over the long term . because of the difficulty in defining suitable versus unsuitable habitat , especially with respect to dispersal , and to simplify the delineation of occurrences , a single separation distance is used regardless of habitat quality . occupied locations that are separated by a gap of 15 km or more of any aquatic habitat that is not known to be occupied represent different occurrences . however , it is important to evaluate seasonal changes in habitat to ensure that an occupied habitat occurrence for a particular population does not artificially separate spawning areas and nonspawning areas as different occurrences simply because there have been no collections / observations in an intervening area that may exceed the separation distance .

this specs group includes catostomids that typically are 20 - 40 cm in adult standard length .

use the generic guidelines for the application of occurrence ranks ( 2008 ) . the key for ranking species occurrences using the generic approach provides a step - wise process for implementing this method .

we investigated occurrence , transport pathways , and effects of polybrominated diphenyl ether ( pbde ) flame retardants and other endocrine disrupting chemicals ( edcs ) in aquatic media and the foodweb in the lower columbia river . in 2009 and 2010 , foodweb sampling at three sites along a gradient of contaminant exposure near skamania ( washington ) , columbia city ( oregon ) and longview ( washington ) included water ( via passive samplers ) , bed sediment , invertebrate biomass residing in sediment , a resident fish species ( largescale suckers [

) . this paper primarily reports fish tissue concentrations . in 2009 , composites of fish brain , fillet , liver , stomach , and gonad tissues revealed that overall contaminant concentrations were highest in livers , followed by brain , stomach , gonad , and fillet . concentrations of halogenated compounds in tissue samples from all three sites ranged from < 1 to 400 nanograms per gram of wet tissue . several chemical classes , including pbdes , organochlorine pesticides , and polychlorinated biphenyls ( pcbs ) , were detected at all sites and in nearly all fish tissues sampled . in 2010 , only fish livers were sampled and inter - site concentration differences were not as pronounced as in 2009 . chemical concentrations in sediments , fish tissues , and osprey eggs increased moving downstream from skamania to the urbanized sites near columbia city and longview . numerous organochlorine ( oc ) pesticides , both banned and currently used , and pbdes , were present at each site in multiple media and concentrations exceeded environmental quality benchmarks in some cases . frequently detected oc compounds included hexachlorobenzene , pentachloroanisole , dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane ( ddt ) and its degradates , chlorpyrifos , and oxyfluorofen . biomagnification of bde47 , 100 , 153 , and 154 occurred in largescale suckers and osprey eggs . results support the hypothesis that contaminants in the environment lead to bioaccumulation and potential negative effects in multiple levels of the foodweb .
