perhaps it was a pregnant female . whatever the case , the animals multiplied . and then evolution kicked in !", "very few other mammals ever made the same journey . eventually rodents , a mongoose - like carnivore and a primitive primate crossed the channel and gave rise to species found nowhere else on earth . a pygmy hippopotamus also crossed but madagascar never saw cats , dogs or large herbivores .", "most tenrecs died out on mainland africa and are known only from fossil records ; all except one small lineage that evolved to fill a specialized aquatic niche - the otter shrews ( see section \" tenrecs in africa \u2013 the otter shrews \" ) . however , tenrecs still inhabit madagascar today in an abundance and diversity not seen in any other mammalian family .", "but then there are species not just from another time , but also from another world . streaked tenrecs ( hemicentetes ) are so unique nothing like them ever evolved elsewhere . their black and pale striped body is covered in spines , with a head crest of quills that can be erected . when irritated the animal makes head butting movements , trying to leave the barbed spines in the nose of its aggressor . a patch of spines on the back form what is known as a stridulating organ - the spines can rub together and produce a type of ultrasound that keeps the family groups together . tongue clicks made by the animals are thought to be a type of echolocation , perhaps used for hunting prey .", "in spite of their many adaptations , tenrecs still exhibit a number of characteristics which make them distinct from other small mammals and which were probably typical of the earliest mammals . such traits include nocturnal activity patterns , small body size , the retention of a cloaca as a common uro - genital opening , abdominal testes , poor eyesight and a dependence on their sense of smell and hearing . they are also considered primitive physiologically , since all species have relatively low body temperatures and metabolic rates relative to their body size , and several specied enter torpor regularly .", "tenrecs are probably most closely related to golden moles ( chrysochloridae ) . along with golden moles , scientists now consider tenrecs part of the afrotheria , a grouping of african mammals with evolutionary connections that also contains the aardvark , sengis ( or elephant - shrews ) , hyraxes , elephants and sea cows .", "six malagasy tenrecs appear in the iucn red list of 2006 . endangered species are considered more threatened than vulnerable species . data deficient species require more information before an assessment can be completed .", "special attention needs to be paid urgently to aquatic tenrecs . research should be conducted into their habitat needs and factors affecting their distribution . land - use and fishing practices may need to be changed in areas where they occur . although small mammals are often neglected in large conservation programmes , aquatic tenrecs would make ideal flagship species for integrated forest and freshwater conservation programmes in eastern madagascar . work to conserve forest habitats and maintain clear , unsilted streams will benefit a range of other plant and animal life as well as aquatic tenrecs .", "tenrecs are a unique and diverse family of mammals , from another world and another time . they make up a significant component of madagascar\u2019s faunal diversity and no doubt hold the answer to many scientific questions on the evolution and adaptation of mammals . let ' s hope that current conservation efforts ensure that their time is not up yet !", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd html 4 . 0 transitional / / en \"", "javascript is disabled for your browser . some features of this site may not work without it .", "goodman , steven m . raxworthy , christopher j . maminirina , claudette p . olson , link e .", "latest build fri , 29 jun 2018 05 : 39 : 03 utc . served by aws - prod"]}

prespa , a nearby lake southeast of lake ohrid that is a major water supplier for the latter . six species are found in surrounding streams and springs and do not occur in the lake proper , viz . dugesia superioris , dendrocoelum jablanicense ( stankovi\u0107 & kom\u00e1rek , 1927 ) , schmidtea lugubris ( schmidt , 1861 ) , crenobia alpina montenigrina ( mr\u00e1zek , 1904 ) , planaria torva ( m\u00fcller , 1774 ) , and polycelis tenuis ijima , 1884 . dendrocoelum jablanicense is endemic of the lake ohrid region , while the others concern widespread species .", "a review of previous studies on the taxonomy , karyology and chorology of a polymorphic species dugesia japonica from the far east is presented . two subspecies are now known : d . j . japonica ( n = 8 , 2x = 16 , 3x = 24 ) and d . j . ryukyuensis ( n = 7 , 2x = 14 , 3x = 21 ) . an attempt has also been made to determine the definition of the b - chromosome as lb and sb and the variation of the karyotypes of both subspecies is described . every known karyotype of d . japonica is classified into six groups ( see table 2 ) . d . japonica from many localities has a diploid karyotype ( 2x ) , a triploid karyotype ( 3x ) and an orthoploidic mixoploid karyotype of 2x & 3x . the origin and the karyological significance of these karyotypes are discussed .", "a unique aspect of planarians is that they can regenerate a brain from somatic pluripotent stem cells called neoblasts , which have the ability to produce themselves ( self - renew ) and to give rise to all missing cell types during regeneration . recent molecular studies have revealed that the planarian brain is composed of many distinct neuronal populations , which are evolutionarily and functionally conserved ones , and acts as an information - processing center to elicit distinct behavioral traits depending on a variety of signals arising from the external environment . how can planarians regenerate such a brain ? on the basis of our recent findings , here we review the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate the stem cell dynamics involved in the brain regeneration of the planarian dugesia japonica . our findings suggest the possible value of in vivo planarian studies for guiding regenerative medicine to treat neurodegenerative diseases via interlinking stem cell biology and regeneration biology .", "dugesia sicula is the only species of its genus not presenting an endemic or restricted distribution within the mediterranean area . it mostly comprises fissiparous populations ( asexual reproduction by body division and regeneration ) , most likely sexually sterile , and characterized by an extremely low genetic diversity interpreted as the consequence of a recent anthropic expansion . however , its fissiparous reproduction can result in an apparent lack of diversity within the species , since genetic variation within individuals can be as large as between them because most individuals within a population are clones . we have estimated haplotype and nucleotide diversity of cytochrome oxidase i within and among individuals along the species distribution of a broad sample of d . sicula , including asexual and the two only sexual populations known today ; and predicted its potential distribution based on climatic variables . our aim was to determine the centre of colonisation origin , whether the populations are recent , and whether the species is expanding .", "asexual worms of fissiparous strain of the planarian dugesia ryukyuensis switch from asexual to sexual reproduction , if they are fed with sexually mature worms of bdellocephala brunnea . this suggests that the sexually mature worms have a sexualizing substance ( s ) that induces the sexuality in the asexual worms . here , we found by analysis of the sexualization that the cessation of the fission , namely their asexual reproduction , occurs immediately after the acquisition of sexuality . this result suggests that the downstream mechanisms induced by the putative sexualizing substance in b . brunnea become responsible for the cessation of fission . we also found that the decapitation triggers fission in the worms even after the acquisition of sexuality if they are not sexually mature , while the fully sexualized worms never fission even though they are decapitated . this result suggests that the cessation of fission takes place via at least two steps : ( 1 ) the mechanisms associated with the cephalic system ; ( 2 ) other mechanisms independent of cephalic control .", "to investigate the relationship between phylogeny and glycan structures , we analyzed the structure of planarian n - glycans . the planarian dugesia japonica , a member of the flatworm family , is a lower metazoan . n - glycans were prepared from whole worms by hydrazinolysis , followed by tagging with the fluorophore 2 - aminopyridine at their reducing end . the labeled n - glycans were purified , and separated by three hplc steps . by comparison with standard pyridylaminated n - glycans , it was shown that the n - glycans of planarian include high mannose - type and pauci - mannose - type glycans . however , many of the major n - glycans from planarians have novel structures , as their elution positions did not match those of the standard glycans . the results of mass spectrometry and sugar component analyses indicated that these glycans include methyl mannoses , and that the most probable linkage was 3 - o - methylation . furthermore , the methyl residues on the most abundant glycan may be attached to the non - reducing - end mannose , as the glycans were resistant to \u03b1 - mannosidase digestion . these results indicate that methylated high - mannose - type glycans are the most abundant structure in planarians .", "an assay system has been established for the sexual induction in the oh strain , an exclusively fissiparous ( asexual ) strain , of dugesia ryukyuensis by feeding them with sexually matured worms of

the species went extinct in the wild . in 2006 , just as the scientists had predicted , the chytridiomycosis disease hit el valle . the panamanian golden frog\u2014whose populations were already under pressure due to collectors and habitat loss\u2014was decimated . suddenly , panama\u2019s unique harelquin frog species joined the ranks of at least 30 other harlequin frogs that are most likely extinct in the wild . luckily , panama\u2019s charismatic namesake was part of an aza species survival plan . today , the captive population is being carefully managed and bred for long - term survival by a number of zoos and aquaria in the united states and panama . the animals in these assurance colonies have served their intended purpose and provide an insurance policy for the species , guaranteeing that this important panamanian cultural symbol will never be lost all together .", "a tragedy has thus been averted . instead of a dire warning of the future fate of the planet , panamanian golden frogs are now a symbol of hope . exiled frogs are playing the role of a flagship species , bringing the story of global amphibian declines to world wide audiences in zoos and aquaria , magazines and films . as the logo of the panama amphibian rescue and conservation project , the panamanian golden frog is a powerful symbol uniting 8 key institutions . together , we have embarked on this ambitious national program to build capacity at the summit municipal park in panama and to create assurance colonies of other amphibian species from eastern panama before it is too late . we are also actively working with some of the world\u2019s leading researchers like reid harris and louise rollins - smith to develop a cure that will allow us to control the further spread of chytridiomycosis . our great hope is that one day we may re - establish wild populations of panamanian golden frogs back into their rightful home in the streams of el valle . until then , we embrace panama\u2019s living gold as a symbol of hope and achievement in showing us how we can preserve panama\u2019s amphibian biodiversity .", "it\u2019s difficult to communicate the extent of the amphibian

species to build a small facility where we could house this species in its range country until we had a better idea of when amphibians in the region could safely be released back into the wild , safe from the chytrid fungus which has now moved through western panama and is heading for the eastern side of the panama canal .", "but what about all the other amphibians in the region , surely they are in need of protection as well ? from this one species , it was decided that a larger focus , based on the 15 - 20 species potentially threatened with extinction due to the chytrid fungus , should be

reproducing them through their life history stages . this was simply the first phase of what you will see here on these pages in months to come . the panama amphibian rescue and conservation program

extinction . cheyenne mountain zoo cares for a collection of these critically endangered toads in our off - exhibit amphibian conservation center . in 2008 our toads produced over 3 , 000 tadpoles ! 2

frogs and the challenges they face in the wild . through our support they will further their efforts in field research and community education .", "over the last year i have spent countless hours talking to people , explaining why i\u2019m an amphibian conservationist battling to save some of the 2000 - odd species of amphibians that are facing extinction . i\u2019ll bet that the bird conservationists saving warblers don\u2019t get that question as often as i do , because birds clearly do matter . birds are a very accessible form of wildlife , you can see them in your back yards , and they are the sound of nature . just a few adrenalin - filled moments spent watching a woodpecker and a cardinal having a fight at a bird feeder is enough escapism to lift the burdens of a hard day in the office . yet frogs do matter for all these reasons and more . the main difference between frogs and birds is that the bird folks are organized and the amphibian conservationists are only just starting to get their act together . birdlife international has 4000 full - time employees , rspb has 1 , 300 staff , the audubon society has 600 employees . even ducks unlimited has 500 employees \u2013 all working full time applying their skills to bird conservation ! yet in the whole amphibian world there are only a handful of people are working full - time to mitigate the threats facing amphibians . faced with this dearth of capacity it is no wonder that just 12 % of birds are in danger of extinction compared to 32 % of amphibians . since 1980 we have lost just 5 species of birds but over 120 species of amphibians !", "that still doesn\u2019t answer the question why does it matter if they go extinct ? humans have many different kinds of value systems . the most obvious one is goods and services that can be exchanged for cash . the best example of the direct value of amphibians is frog legs . these are a culinary curiosity and have obvious direct value that can easily be quantified in dollars . most people would be surprised to hear that between 1996 and 2006 , over 100 , 000 tons of frogs legs were imported and had a value approaching half a billion dollars ! every year 100 million to 400 million wild - caught animals are imported and exported to nearly every country in the world .", "this public service announcement from the vancouver aquarium elegantly captures how important amphibians are to controlling pests . however , it is difficult to figure out how much these ecosystem services are worth if people aren\u2019t paying for them , they are indirect values . the trouble is it\u2019s tough to know how much something is really worth unless someone is willing to pay for it . one example that gives us a clue about what people may be willing to sacrifice for these indirect services is from india . in 1981 the indian the frog leg trade peaked , when more than 4 , 000 tons were exported , mainly to europe earning revenues of $ 9 . 3 million . in 1987 , however , india banned frog legs exports , arguing that the cost of importing more pesticides to combat pests in rice paddies devoid of amphibians was outstripping revenues earned from frog leg exports . this contention also contributed to the listing of two species that were targeted specifically for food on appendix ii in cites .", "many people will justify saving the rain forest , because we don\u2019t know what aids cure might be out there , and we don\u2019t want it to go extinct before we find out where to get it , something that we\u2019ll call option values . well , one of my collaborators , an incredible lady by the name of louise rollins - smith recently discovered that the white\u2019s tree frog from australia produces a kind of chemical called a caerin ( pronounced see - rin ) that can block hiv transmission to t - cells ! in fact , frog - skins are a real pharmacopeia something i\u2019ve tried to communicate in this illustration below .", "the gastric brooding frog from australia may have held a cure for peptic ulcers , a condition that affects millions of people around the world each year . unfortunately though , its potential benefits went extinct along with both species in its genus in the 1980\u2019s . looking at this diagram makes one realize that some values are difficult to prescribe in dollar terms . it makes you think about what we are loosing when you hear stories like one from my colleagues in panama who recently discovered 10 new species in panama - after they had already gone extinct !", "amenity values are difficult to quantify in dollar terms , yet frogs are one of the most commonly used animals in classroom education in western countries . 44 - 64 % of all colleges and secondary schools surveyed in georgia , usa used amphibians for educational purposes . and how many of us had our first real wildlife experiences catching frogs and kissing them to see if they turned into a prince ? or chasing a bullfrog across the garden lawn in a frog - jumping competition with your friends ?", "ethical values are , in my mind , the real justification for saving a species . many people will spend countless millions on a work of art , a unique object of beauty and fascination that enriches our lives simply because it exists . i feel the same way about a species , when we lose it , it can never be replaced . like many people before me i find frogs fascinating creatures . in africa , the ancient egyptian goddess of fertility , hequet , was often depicted as a frog . in asia chan chu , the three - legged money frog is a popular chinese symbol for prosperity and it is said to bring wealth into your life . in the america\u2019s pre - columbian indigenous people crafted frogs in gold and clay talismans called huacas . today , golden frogs are considered lucky , and adorn panamanian lottery tickets and crowd tables in tourist markets . in more contemporary settings , one has to wonder what the value is of modern cultural icons such as kermit or the budweiser trio of frogs named bud , wei and ser ?", "so you may be saying right now \u2013 i\u2019m not convinced , frogs creep me out . that\u2019s ok , but i would beg to differ with you because i know that frogs do matter . i just want to keep them around so that your children and their children can form their own opinions . not just by looking at catalogues of extinct species in a library somewhere , but by exploring a stream with their friends and discovering these incredible creatures for themselves .", "it\u2019s official . the deadly amphibian chytrid fungus batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( bd ) has now spread across the panama canal into eastern panama according to a study recently published in ecohealth . elsewhere in central and south america , this disease has spread through mountainous regions . according to karen lips , a conservation biologist who has studied the problem for years , when bd arrives at a site , about half of the species vanish and the remaining species experience massive die - offs .", "conservationists have been fretting for years about what might happen to eastern panama\u2019s 120 - odd amphibian species when bd hits . bd is a disease that cannot tolerate extremely hot temperatures , so it tends to be most devastating in cooler mountainous regions of the tropics that remain cool and moist year - round . the mountainous regions of eastern panama are one of the last remaining strongholds of na\u00efve amphibian populations in the new world , and species that tend to have a highland distribution and small ranges are the most vulnerable to extinction .", "to add another layer of complexity to this problem , there are many species new to science that we could lose before they are even discovered . according to dr . andrew crawford who studies amphibian genetics , \u201ceastern panama has been relatively poorly explored by herpetologists and it is likely that there are several species new to science that live only in this region . what is particularly worrying is that we are facing a huge biodiversity threat , but we don\u2019t have a good idea of just how many species are at stake\u201d ."]}

producer able to build up a race to such a climax . the luck of jumping , which put most of the favourites out of the race well before devon loch and three others leapt into sight in the home straight , ensured that the weight of the cheering all bent itself to the encouragement of the queen mother ' s horse . the favourite , must , and the fancied high guard ( with a . p . thompson up , riding in his last national ) and two other runners went down as the cavalcade cleared the first jump .", "nestled on the banks of the river yealm in south devon ' s yachty haven of newton ferrers is the oh -

finch ( c . parvulus ) . it is never as common as the small tree - finch and it is found in areas with taller and larger trees .", "habitat : the large tree - finch frequents mainly humid evergreen forest between 300 and 700 metres of elevation . however , during the dry season , it may move to lower areas with deciduous trees , shrubs and opuntia cacti .", "the breeding season is associated with rains , involving abundant food resources . the large tree - finch is monogamous and the pair defends a small territory . they often have long - term pair - bonds . the male is territorial and guards the female during the egg - laying .", "introduction : the large tree -

finch feeds primarily on arthropods , but it also takes cactus fruits and other fruits , flowers and seeds . during the nesting season , the chicks are fed with a mixed diet including arthropods , fruits and seeds . outside the breeding season , it feeds mainly on seeds according to the size of its bill . it forages in trees , probing and biting into the bark of twigs , in order to extract insects and larvae , but also caterpillars .", "identification : the largest of the tree finches with a large , rather parrot -

43 . 9 ( ecologia environment 2009a ) . genetic studies indicated a strong population subdivision between weld range north and weld range south ( ecologia environment 2010a ) . the collections at weld range extended the species distribution by approximately 200 km further north , into more arid areas ( ecologia environment 2009a ) .", "at blue hills , one study showed the mean number of burrows per hectare of 4 . 08 in an area of 13 ha ( ecologia environment 2013 ) .", "survey work has been carried out at minnivale and east yorkrakine nature reserves , karara , weld range and jack hills mining leases and , more recently , on likely conservation areas and department of environment and conservation managed lands through the northern wheatbelt and the southern / central midwest ( anonymous 2010 ) . these surveys did not detect the species in much of the northern wheatbelt and southern midwest . these surveys demonstrated that there are unlikely to be any populations in the interior of the wheatbelt and midwest until you reach the large banded iron formation ranges of the midwest to the north and the higher rainfall of the central wheatbelt to the south ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "this work also showed that there is a likelihood that the species occurs throughout more of the midwest region than currently known , with up to 60 sites identified as possibilities ( anonymous 2010 ) . however more than half of these occur east of the current known eastern extent , and a number of mining tenements in these areas have not found the species despite significant survey work . at least half a dozen occur further north than the northern known extent . there are about 20 sites that have a high potential for harbouring significant populations of this species ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "in 2010 , there were seven locations with populations larger than 30 shield -

backed trapdoor spider typically inhabits clay soils whereas the arid midwest populations are associated with rocky habitats , primarily in positions with increased moisture retention properties like gullies and drainage lines on southern facing slopes ( anonymous 2010 ; ecologia environment 2009a ) . the wheatbelt and coastal midwest populations are in areas with more consistent annual rainfall than those in the arid midwest , which is likely to be why the populations in these areas are primarily found in sheltered habitat ( anonymous 2010 ) . in the wheatbelt , populations are associated with eucalypt woodland and acacia shrubland , and in the arid midwest they are associated with acacia shrubland ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "leaf litter and twigs are extremely important to the species as it provides material for the burrows , reduced soil moisture loss and increased prey availability ( anonymous 2010 ) . the species avoids areas of dense leaf litter as juveniles are unable to dig their initial hole in such areas ( main 1992 cited in ) . areas of lower grazing pressure may suport greater population abundance ( ecologia environment 2009a ) .", "in the wheatbelt , habitat critical to the species is identified as open york gum ( eucalyptus loxophleba ) , salmon gum ( e . salmonophloia ) and wheatbelt wandoo ( e . capillosa ) woodland , where jam ( acacia acuminata ) forms a sparse understorey in heavy clay soils ( acc 2007 ) .", "in a study at weld range , all burrows were found within boundaries of drainage lines underneath predominantly acacia vegetation ( mulga ( acacia aneura ) , a . sp . weld range , dead finish ( a . tetragonophylla ) , a . ramulosa , a . craspedocarpa , a . paraneura ) and also underneath hakea preissii and eremophila glutinosa ) . of 1708 burrows detected , 33 % were on slope - foot - plain , 30 % on the plain , 27 % on slopes and 10 % on hilltop - slope - foot ( ecologia environment 2009a ) . burrows were found in soil dominated by clay and rocks ( 54 % ) , or clay , rock and sand ( 38 % ) . the average leaf litter of sites ranged between 7 - 100 % with a mean of 59 % ( ecologia environment 2009a ) .", "in a study at blue hills , 53 burrows were recorded under a . ramulosa or a . caesaneura , in microhabitat ranging from loamy plains to rocky hillslopes ( ecologia environment 2013 ) . the average leaf litter of sites ranged between 25 - 98 % with a mean of 63 % ( ecologia environment 2013 ) .", "in a study at mummaloo , of a 52 quadrat survey the species was detected at 14 locations ( bennelongia 2012 ) . two records occurred in ecualyptus woodland and twelve occurred in mixed species shrubland . the eucalypt woodland consists of york gum , salmon gum and gimlet ( e . salubris ) with callitris columellaris usually present and occasionally casuarina obesa . the understorey contains 5 - 60 % cover of eremophila spp . , acacia spp . and allocasuarina spp . . the mixed species shrubland consists of melaleuca stereophloia , callitris columellaris and casuarina obesa ( of no more than 55 % overall cover ) , and 10 -

like sigilla ( seal ) and in some parts of the geographic range has stout spines along the ridges . this morphology reduces evaporative water loss in contrast to most species in the related genus aganippe . the enlarged eyes and long legs together with the attached twiglines to the buttom rim are advantageous for foraging ( main 2010 ) .", "spiderlings generally construct their burrows within a very short distance ( several centimetres ) of the matriarch female , forming a family cluster that is typical of mygalomorph spiders ( a group of large spiders that include tarantulas , trapdoor spiders and funnel - web spiders ) that do not have aerial dispersal . gene flow is maintained through the dispersal of mature males in search of females for mating ( travelling up to 500 m ) the only time males leave their burrows . females spend their entire life in the one burrow or within its proximity ( anonymous 2010 ) . the population at weld range north was shown to have uninterrupted gene flow over a range of at least 6 km ( ecologia environment 2010a ) .", "both males and females reach maturity after approximately 5 - 6 years . males die shortly after reaching sexual maturity and mating , whereas females may live as long as 20 years , reproducing several times ( anonymous 2010 ) . it is believed that males mature and mate after the first significant rains of the year , dispersing up to 500 m ( main unpub . data cited in anonymous 2010 ) . there is some evidence that females may store sperm ( main unpub . data cited in anonymous 2010 ) but whether this means that males only mate with virgin females or whether adult females mate repeatedly during their life is unclear . it is also unknown whether males mate within their matriarchal unit and whether they mate with more than one female ( anonymous 2010 ) . the very low dispersal capabilities of the males mean that fragmentation and isolation are likely to be playing a major role in the declining populations in the wheatbelt ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "the shield - backed trapdoor spider is an opportunistic feeder and feeds primarily on ants , but also includes beetles , cockroaches , millipedes and moths ( clark & spier - ashcroft 2003 ) . the species relies on the twigs and leaves they have attached to the rim of their burrow for the detection of prey within the vicinity of their burrow ( anonymous 2010 ) . this reliance on leaf litter means that leaf litter loss through inappropriate fire regimes and management may impact significantly on the species ability to feed ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "searching for burrows during the wetter parts of the year is the most common and most effective way of surveying for the shield - backed trapdoor spider . the burrow is quite distinctive but can be easily mistaken for other twig - lining species . the burrow has two tufts of leaf litter radiating out from the centre of the burrow rim , similar to a moustache . the atrium of the burrow is cup shaped and narrows to the main shaft of the burrow . it is this characteristic that is often missed or misinterpreted by surveyors ( anonymous 2010 ) . searching for burrows within and on the edges of leaf litter in suitable habitats is the most effective approach for detection . pit traps placed around vegetation in suitable habitats during autumn can be used to catch wandering males ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "secondary salinisation : the widespread clearing of the wheatbelt has resulted in the water table rising and an increase in salinisation close to the surface . this results in vegetation changes that directly affect the shield - backed trapdoor spider because of it\u2019s reliance on the vegetation and associated leaf litter for habitat ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "grazing : grazing by stock and feral animals affects both the wheatbelt and midwest populations largely through the disturbance of leaf litter , vegetation and soil . work in the midwest has shown that areas where grazing occurs have fewer emergents and juveniles ( ecologia environment unpub . data cited in anonymous 2010 ) .", "fragmentation and clearing : the clearing of habitat has resulted in the severe fragmentation of populations in the wheatbelt . the populations at karara , weld range , jack hills and blue hills will all be negatively affected by land clearing because of the mining operations ( anonymous 2010 ; ecologia environment 2009a , 2013 ) , which will fragment these significant populations . dust pollution associated with mining could negatively impact the species", "vibrations : vibrations associated with vehicles and exploration drilling have the potential to affect nearby populations . recent work at jack hills and weld range has shown a possible reduction in emergents and juveniles within 50 m of exploration drilling pads ( phoenix environmental unpub . data cited in anonymous 2010 ) . exploration restrictions have been put in place at weld range and jack hills based on this research .", "inappropriate fire : in the wheatbelt , the combination of fragmentation and intense fire has a high potential to result in local extinctions , with little to no chance of recolonisation ( main 1995 ) . intense fires can not only remove burrow doors but also remove all the leaf litter , providing no material for reparation work and dramatically affecting the prey population ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "lack of litter management in reserves : although the species requires leaf litter to survive , excessive , deep litter canrestrict the establishment of emergent burrows , forcing them further away from vegetation and exposing them to the elements that likely decrease their chances of surviving to adulthood . similarly deep litter reduces the chances of understorey vegetation growing , reducing the diversity of invertebrates and the health of the habitat and increases the chances of hot , intense fires going through a population ( anonymous 2010 ) .", "recovery actions for this species are provided in the conservation advice for the shield -

( 1990 ) showed how pyrosoma atlanticum and pyrosomella verticillata bioluminesce in response to light . if you shine light on zooids on the one side of the colony , they bioluminesce and their light stimulates adjacent individuals . in this way , the bioluminescence spreads over the colony from the point where the zooids were stimulated . a colony that lights up can in turn stimulate an adjacent colony to light up as well . at the same time as lighting up , the zooid closes its oral siphon and the cilia inside that cause the water flow , stop beating . colonies are negatively buoyant so when water flow stops , the colony starts sinking slowly . it is thought that the ability to bioluminesce in response to light stimulation might be an adaptation to communicating about predators and by also closing the water flow and sinking , they can move to a depth where there are fewer predators ( bowlby et al . 1990 ) .", "mackie , g . o . ; bone , q .

unbranched papillae ( bumps ) . individuals vary in shape , size and coloration . adult individuals can range from 30 to 250 mm .", "occur in north america , europe , asia , africa , and the indonesian archipelago ( graf and cummings , 2002 ) and can thrive in tropical to temperate climates . the most diversity is in north america , where there are approximately 286 species ( turgeon et al . , 1998 ) , mainly east of the rocky mountains ( jennings , 2000 ) . the nearly 300 species in north america are grouped into 49 genera , which make up two subfamilies :", "is an example of this broad diversity . only two species are found in the interior united states ( mississippi river basin ) , and the majority of the species ( 36 currently recognized ) are found in the rivers of the southeastern atlantic coastal plain ( watters , 2001a ) . historical documentation describes mussels paving the beds of the ohio and wabash rivers ( warren , 2000 ) .", "( cummings and mayer , 1992 ; graf and cummings , 2008 ; graf , 2002 ; jennings , 2000 ; turgeon , et al . , 1998 ; warren , 2000 ; watters , 2001a )", "unionids are found in various permanent freshwater sources such as lakes , streams , and rivers . the family", "is not found in high mountain lakes , probably due to a lack of proper fish hosts for the glochidia or poor nutrient supply ( smith 2001 ) . most species are generally found where there are coarse substrates like sand or gravel ( smith 2001 ) however , the predictive value of substrate has been questioned ( strayer and ralley , 1993 ) . in michigan , different mussel distributions may more strongly tied to surface geology in the streams ( strayer , 1983 ) . constantly shifting substrates or stream basins composed of solid rock have few mussels . rivers tend to have a more abundant food supply and higher dissolved oxygen content than bodies of water with little or no current . large rivers tend to contain a wider diversity of mussel species and larger populations than smaller streams ( cummings & mayer 1992 ) . watters ( 1992 ) found as the area of a drainage basin increases , so does the fish diversity . this relationship is likely due to the increased diversity in habitat for fish . watters ( 1992 ) also found a linear correlation between fish diversity and mussel diversity , likely due to the increase number of host fish species available .", "because the shell is primarily composed of calcium carbonate , mussels prefer an aquatic habitat with an alkaline ph , an abundance of calcium , a bound carbon dioxide content of more than 15 mg / l , and a potassium level less than 7 mg / l . some species are able to tolerate an acidic ph for a short time , but eventually the acid will dissolve the shell and alter the internal chemistry of the visceral mass . calcium and carbon dioxide are important for the development of the shell , and potassium appears to be toxic .", "unionids are most abundant in depths less than 2 m , but will populate waters as deep as 7 m ( smith 2001 ) . the record depth for a", "specimens ranging between 7 and 14 years old and less than 53 mm long were collected from lake michigan ( reigle 1967 ) .", "called \" valves \" ( bivalved ) attached at the hinge by an elastic ligament . they have an", "( beak ) along the dorsal margin and slightly anterior to the hinge and are bilaterally symmetrical along a plane running between the two valves . individuals do not have true siphons . instead , they have two to three openings in the mantle along the posterior margin that act as the inhalant and exhalant apertures ( smith 2001 ) . these openings are either papillated ( bumpy ) or crenulated ( grooved ) along the external margin . under each mantle is a gill made up of two demibranchs . each demibranch is composed of two", "fused at the ventral surface but open at the dorsal surface forming a \u201cw . \u201d each lamella is lined vertically with compact", ", which are closed at the bottom but open into a larger , shared cavity at the top called the suprabranchial chamber . these water tubes are characteristic of", "is found on the anterior end of the organism and between the demibranchs in the two valves . the majority of the median visceral mass in the posterior portion of the organism is primarily dorsal and not as confined in the anterior portion ( smith 2001 ) . unionids have a simple sensory system . their", "is comprised of three pairs of ganglia : cerebropleural , pedal , and visceral . with one on each side of the esophagus , the cerebropleural ganglia are located on the posterior side of the anterior adductor muscle and are connected by a short commissure . in the foot and fused is the pair of pedal ganglia and anterior to the posterior adductor muscle is the partially fused visceral ganglia . the ganglia are connected by long commissures and each pair is the source of the nerve fibers for the surrounding organs ( smith 2001 ) . near the pedal ganglia is a pair of", ", which are ovid or spherical . these statocysts are filled with fluid and lined with sensory cells . they also contain a solid sphere called a statolith ( smith 2001 ) . these mussels generally have closed statocysts and a single statolith ( meglitsch & schram 1991 ) . osphradia are specialized epithelium concentrated in two small regions on the roof of the cloacal chamber ( the posterior end of the suprabranchial chamber in the gills where it is fused ) ( smith 2001 ) . in some species , there is a spot of pigmentation near the inhalant aperture that may be photoactive ( smith 2001 ) .", "adult unionids can range anywhere from 30 to 250 mm ( smith 2001 ) in length , and are just as variable in shape and color . among the common shapes are triangular , circular , rhomboidal , quadrate , trapezoidal , and elliptical ( burch 1975 ) . shape is a general description ; it cannot be heavily relied upon in the identification of species because it can vary among individuals of the same species . it is not uncommon to have a more inflated , rounded form of a species found in large rivers , while the larger , more compressed form of the same species is found in smaller streams and lakes where currents are not as strong . many genera in the subfamily", "exhibit sexual dimorphism . in these species , the males are usually bluntly pointed or squared along the posterior - ventral margin , while females are broadly truncated . periostracum colors vary from yellow or tan to shades of green to dark brown or black . some have solid rays , broken rays , wavy rays , rays composed of chevrons , or even a combination of rays and spots . external shell sculpturing can also vary from one species to another and can be used to distinguish some taxa . sculptures can be one of several combinations of ridges and bumps called \" nodules \" or \" pustules . \" not all mussel species have sculpturing . nearly the entire", "subfamily has smooth surfaces with the exception of ridges formed from the concentric growth rings . another exterior sculpturing that is relied upon in identification is beak sculpture . beak sculptures range from numerous fine concentric ridges to a few distinctive bars to double - looped or v - shaped ridges . in some cases , the difference in beak sculpture is the best way to distinguish between two species . other exterior shell characteristics may include a prominent posterior ridge extending from beak to posterior - ventral margin , a unique texture to the periostracum , or a wing - like structure extending from the dorsal margin .", "are the parasitic stage of the larvae and are generally dependent on a host to survive . mature glochidia range from 0 . 05 to 0 . 5 mm in diameter . they are bivalves , which vary in shape from triangular , circular , oblong , or ( in", "only ) ax head shaped and are typically attached by a single adductor muscle . most glochidia have sensory hairs lining their mantle and a larval thread protruding from the open valves , which may allow them to attach to the host . many species have hook - like structures to allow them to attach to the fins or skin of the fish . those species without hooks usually attach to the gills .", "measurements are generally taken of the length , height , and width . the length is the distance from the anterior to the posterior margin . the height is the distance from dorsal to ventral margin , usually at the beak . width is the widest point when the mussel valves are together , which is usually below the beaks . in addition , some identification keys will use the length to height ratio as a way to distinguish some species .", "embryonic unionids develop within the marsupia , or specialized portions of the gills , of the female . once fully developed , they are", "from the female and must attach to the gills or fins of a fish host within a few days or they will die .", "are the only two species capable of direct development without a host ( watters 1994c ) . only one species ,", ". many unionids are species - specific , requiring one or a narrow range of species . if attached to the wrong species , the glochidia will die as a result of the fish ' s immune system response ( watters 1998 ) . within a couple of days , the hosts\u2019 dermal tissue will encapsulate each glochidium forming a nodular cyst . while encysted , the glochidia will metamorphose , allowing the organs to develop more like an adult\u2019s organs ( meglitsch & schram 1991 ) . there is a mortality rate of over 99 . 99 % from the time the glochidia are released from the mother to the time in which the metamorphosed juveniles settle in the sediments ( jansen et al 2001 ) .", "( jansen , et al . , 2001 ; meglitsch and schram , 1991 ; watters , 1994c ; watters , 1998 )", "after an average of 10 - 30 days ( the record is 190 days ) , the metamorphosis will be complete and the glochidia will break from the cysts and drop from the host . the third and final stage of development occurs in the sediments of the stream or lake and may last anywhere from one to eight years before the juvenile is sexually mature . in this juvenile stage , the young mussel will complete its internal development , create the adult shell , and begin to live independently in the stream or lake .", "as in most bivalves , the shell is composed of three layers : the periostracum , the prismatic layer , and the nacre . the periostracum is the outermost layer and is composed of an organic material . the prismatic layer is the middle layer and is composed of thin blocks of a prism - like calcium carbonate , which are oriented perpendicular to the mantle and the other two layers . the nacre , or mother of pearl , is the innermost layer , which is composed of thin , alternating , laminae ( flakes or sheets ) of calcium carbonate and an organic material ( smith 2001 ) . the mantle is responsible for generating new shell as the mussel ages . a mantle flap is pressed against the interior of each valve and ends in three folds . the periostracum forms at the outer margin and the prismatic layer forms at the outer border . the nacre forms along the entire surface of the mantle .", "form where the muscle attaches to the shell , disrupting the formation of the nacre . instead of the shell forming along the dorsal edge where the hinge is located , an elastic hinge ligament composed of conchiolin ( a protein - rich substance ) forms , binding the two valves together ( meglitsch & schram 1991 ) .", ". because new shell is added along the entire edge of the mantle , concentric rings form around the beak . in some species , these rings may be grouped closer together in some areas than others , forming ridges . these ridges indicate the period of diapause during the winter or unfavorable environmental conditions , such as lower water level or lack of food . the period of growth in northern populations is typically from april to september . the growth rate depends mostly on environmental conditions such as water temperature , food supply , and the chemical composition of the water . many mussel species are capable of growing 30 to 80 mm every two growing seasons .", "a few species are occasionally or permanently simultaneous hermaphrodites ( bauer 1987 ) , but in most cases , unionid sexes are separate . bauer ( 1987 ) suggested that hermaphroditism occurs when the population density is low or gene flow is limited . in these cases , the female is the only one of the two sexes that can become hermaphroditic . despite the dioecious nature of most mussels , males and females do not make contact with each other . males produce sperm year round and", "during the time of year when females ovulate ( matteson 1948 ) . this simultaneous release of gametes may be triggered by a change in the water temperature and the intensity of light in the environment . the male\u2019s sperm leaves the suprabranchial chamber of each demibranch and exits the organism through the exhalant aperture to be carried by the water current to a nearby female . because sperm cannot swim against the current , the receiving female must be downstream ( watters 1994a ) . the sperm enters the female through the inhalant aperture and fertilizes the eggs stored in the water tubes of the demibranch\u2019s lamellae ( smith 2001 ) .", "depending on the species , sexual maturity is reached between one and eight years ( smith 2001 ) . gamete production is initiated by a change in the water temperature surrounding the mussel ( watters 1998 ) . annual gametogenesis and gravidity may occur throughout the year or during certain seasons depending on latitude . the more northern populations tend to be gravid for a few months or all winter long and release the glochidia in the spring . there are a few species that release the glochidia in the fall . in many cases , southern populations are not restricted to reproducing during certain seasons . the number of larvae developing in one female at a time may range from several thousand in some of the smaller", "genera to possibly over 1 million . the maximum amount of glochidia in one female is unknown , but tankersley and dimock ( 1992 ) recorded nearly 1 million in a", ", contains species which have produced more than 3 million per individual ( smith 2001 ) . bradytictic ( long term ) breeders will maintain the glochidia within the marsupia , the specialized portions of the gills , until the following spring or summer before", ". tachytictic ( short term ) breeders will release the glochidia in the same year , usually by july or august ( watters 1998 ) . matteson ( 1948 ) was convinced that the membrane surrounding the developing embryos provides all of the necessary nutrients , rather than the female transferring food to the developing young . his conclusion was based on a lack of connective structure from the gills to the young and that the fertilization membrane surrounding each embryo , which prevents the passing of any materials , remains until development is complete .", "unionid embryos spend the first stage of development in the marsupial portion of the female unionid ' s gills , where they develop into glochidia , the parasitic stage . once the first stage is complete , usually in the spring , the female will", "into the water to begin the second stage as a parasite . because glochidial mortality is high , many unionids have developed specialized methods of attracting fish to the mother before the glochidia are released , increasing the chances the larvae can attach to a host . some of these species extend the glochidia encapsulated in conglutinates ( chamberlain 1934 ) . these conglutinates ( sacs ) are attached to the parent organism and move in the current like worms . this encapsulated appendage acts as a lure to attract the host fish , which then eats the glochidia freeing them from the capsule and allowing them to attach to the gills of the fish . other species use a modified mantle flap to attract the fish . this flap mimics the prey of the potential host fish . the glochidia are sensitive enough to attach themselves to the fish as soon as contact is made .", "for small organisms , unionids are long - lived , living an average of 10 or more years ( cummings & mayer 1992 ) . some genera live only 8 to 9 years , while others can live up to 10 to 15 years ( smith 2001 ) . given the proper conditions , many species can live up to 20 or 30 years ( watters 1998 ) . bauer ( 2001b ) suggested life span is dependent upon metabolic rate . mussels with a higher metabolic rate tend to have a shorter life span . those unionids in larger rivers or streams would have a higher metabolic rate due to the abundance of food , and would be expected to have a short life . unionids that thrive further upstream may have a longer lifespan because they would have adapted to a limited food supply by decreasing their metabolic rate . although metabolic rate is a key factor affecting longevity in some species , it is not a universal constant . some species with similar metabolic rates may have very different lifespans .", "for the most part , mussels are sedentary , but they are capable of a restricted form of locomotion . they move around by a series of muscular motions of the", "located at the anterior end of each individual . the foot is thrust forward first . it then swells and shortens at the same time , causing the body and shell to pull forward slightly . this process is repeated until the mussel has reached its destination . some species have been recorded to move up to several feet within an hour . researchers are still unsure what causes this migration , but they suspect the movement is caused by a drop in water level or some other unfavorable change in the surrounding environment .", "unionids are solitary organisms . the only intra - or inter - species interactions occur during reproduction . once they drop from the host , the mussel becomes a solitary individual and live partially buried in the sediments . as juveniles , mussels burrow into the sediments along the bottom of the stream or lake , which protects them from predators . once mature , more of the organism must protrude from the substrate in order for the inhalant and exhalant apertures to bring in and expel water . because more of the shell is visible , they are more susceptible to predation .", "during winter months and aestivation periods ( matteson 1955 ; van der schalie 1940 ) , mussels will burrow into the substrate until only the apertures are protruding . they then go into a state of dormancy where the apertures only open on occasion . some genera are able to survive in this dormant state among the dry to moist sediments for months at a time ( smith 2001 ) ."]}

reddish colouration on the head as well as on the wings . also the grey - blackish colour is quite present on the feathers of the back and on the coverts and rectrices of the wings where it forms scaly drawings . the tail , always on the young of the year , has a terminal black band . during the first winter after the birth , the young presents a strong reduction of the reddish colouration even if it keeps a certain dark spotting on the wings and the strike of the tail . the colouration , during the first summer after the birth , will be similar to that of the first winter with the addition of the hood which will not be complete like that in the adult specimens as in the chocolate brown is preent a variable quantity of white . starting from the second year of life , the adult livery will be complete . this bird has a length of about 40 cm ( 37 - 44 ) and a wingspan of about 94 - 110 cm , weighs about 220 - 350 g and there is no evident sexual dimorphism ; it is a very skilful and nimble flyer .", "the black - headed gull has practically an omnivorous alimentation and has often the habit of stealing the food from other birds and also from its conspecifics ( kleptoparasitism ) . in the humid and marine zones it actively looks for fishes , aquatic insects and generally small animals but its adaptative and opportunistic capacities render it able to take advantage from the most varied alimentary sources thus being practically able to nourish of whatever alimentary leftover found in the dumpings and in the urban areas .", "the reproductive range of this species of gull is very ample , extending from the southern point of greenland to the whole iceland , continuing through most of europe and of central asia and reaching the kamchatka peninsula in russia and north - eastern china . it is rarer in america .", "the reproductive territories are reached by early spring ( february - march for europe ) ; first by the males who occupy the territories where to build the nest and then by the females who will have to chose the partners . usually , the mating is preceded by the regurgitation of food done by the male in favour of the female . the formed pairs become territorial and defend the zone where the nest will be located ; the defended surface will be of some square metres .", "the nest is formed by cup of vegetal material fairly well built ; the eggs ( 1 - 3 per brood ) are spawned between april and may . the eggs have a brown - mustard colouration and are spotted of brown ; the brooding lasts 22 - 26 days . the pullets , which since already the first days of life have open eyes and are able to get off from the nest , are nourished with fish and other food regurgitated by the parents . the newborns have a brown - reddish colouration with yellowish reflections and are totally spotted of black . this mimetic colouration along with the capacity of hiding and of flattening on the ground at the least sign of danger helps them in the defence from the predators . the reproductive colonies may count from few pairs to thousands of specimens . the adults tend to get back , for the reproduction , to the colonies where they were born ."]}

orbital margins ( figures 2a , 3a , s1 ) . such proportions are more similar to those of rhizodonts and canowindrids than to those of other eotetrapodiforms . the anterior - most paired roofing bones are the parietals , which are pierced by a pineal foramen that lies posterior to the orbits in larger specimens , or later ontogenetic stages ( figures 3a , s3 ) . this condition is similar to early diverging \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 such as koharalepis , canowindra , and gyroptychius , and later - diverging tristichopterids more phylogenetically distal than eusthenopteron . a functional dermal intracranial joint is unknown considering the tongue - and - groove articulations of the intertemporal and supratemporal bones that span this region . however , because the skull tends to be preserved in two parts , with the symplesiomorphic condition at least across the parietal / postparietal region , such a \u2018joint\u2019 is scored as present in tinirau ( figures 2a , 3a , s1 , s4 ) . the condition in tinirau is thus either autapomorphic ( considering that dermal suturing in panderichthys involves only the parietals and postparietals ) or \u2018intermediate\u2019 because of the simultaneous suturing and simple abutment found across its dermal intracranial division . interestingly , platycephalichthys also has posteriorly recessed intertemporals suggesting a similar intracranial configuration [ 27 ] .", "the postparietal shield is not extremely wide posteriorly , as in canowindrids , nor do the parietals narrow to a point caudally , as in rhizodonts . instead , the tabulars extend to the posterior margin of a postparietal shield that is approximately as wide as the ethmoid , a condition akin to that seen in tristichopterids , panderichthys , tiktaalik , and ventastega ( figure s4 ) . lateral to the tabular resides a postspiracular ( = extratemporal ) situated in the plesiomorphic anterior position , similar to the condition in devonian tetrapodomorphs except tristichopterids phylogenetically distal of spodichthys ( figure s4 ) . the postspiracular is lost in known elpistostegalians .", "surrounding the orbit , the anterior and posterior supraorbitals ( = prefrontals and postfrontals ) are of similar size and contact one another anterior to the mid - orbital margin . the posterior supraortbitals do not extend anterior to the orbits , similar to the condition in other devonian tetrapodomorphs except a few late - diverging tristichopterids ( figures 2a , s1 , s3 ) . the lacrimal and jugal meet approximately at the mid - ventral orbital margin where , unlike in mandageria and eusthenodon , the postfrontal and lacrimal do not make contact ( figures 2a , s1 ) . moreover , unlike in elpistostegalians , the squamosal ( here , bound up in a fused cheek plate ) precludes abutting of the jugal and quadratojugal ( figures 2 , s1 , s4 ) . it is not known directly if the postorbital contributes to the orbit of tinirau , but based on the topology of this element and neighboring bones in ucmp 118605 , it is inferred to make a minor contribution ( figures 2a , s1 ) .", "the jaws of tinirau are characteristically eotetrapodiform in form , although contain a unique combination of plesiomorphic and apomorphic traits . the premaxillary teeth are all of similar size as in early diverging tristichopterids and elpistostegalians ( figure s2 ) . however , the maxilla lacks a posterodorsal process , a state shared with platycephalichthys and elpistostegalians such as panderichthys on crownward , but also with derived tristichopterids such as cabonnichthys and mandageria ( figures 2a , s1 , s4 ) . dentary fangs are present , similar to platycephalichthys and elpistostegalians , though this character is also known in rhizodonts , megalichthyids , and derived tristichopterids ( figure 3c ) . the posterior coronoid is much longer than the anterior two coronoids , yet only carries one fang pair followed by a row or 5 + medium - sized teeth ( figure s5 ) . this state combination is not present in any tristichopterid , and only shared with platycephalichthys and early elpistostegalians such as panderichthys . in other words , tristichopterids with long posterior coronoids also bear two posterior fang pairs , and those tristichopterids with one fang pair do not have very long posterior coronoids . a distinct meckelian groove is visible in the lower jaw of ucmp 190999 , and similar to the condition in non - elpistostegalian tetrapodomorphs , it bears an ossified posterior meckelian region separating the prearticular / angular contact ( figure 3c ) .", "the operculogular elements in ucmp 190999 are similar in shape and proportion to those of other devonian \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 , and therefore are not diagnostic of a physical neck ( i . e . , a discrete , disconnecting region ) between the shoulders and head ( figures 2a , s1 , s4 ) . similar to kenichthys and platycephalichthys , a large preoperculum is sutured to the squamosal in a cheek plate and is also visible in visceral view in ucmp 118605 and 190999 ( figures 2a , s1 , s4 ) . the spiracular notch is not well - preserved , but judging from the narrow space between the squamosal and postparietal shield , it is inferred to be small and thus more like the condition in most \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 rather than to that of gogonasus and elpistostegalians ( figures 2a , 3a - ii , s1 ) . the presence and size of a median gular remain unknown .", "the neurocranium is plesiomorphic in many ways , although it shares some similarities with those of tristichopterids . a fully ossified ethmoid extends below a narrow tectum orbitale and articulates with its posterior otic - occipital counterpart via an endoskeletal intracranial joint . in turn , a basicranial fanestra spans this division ( figures 3c ) . these states are present in all devonian tetrapodomorphs except for kenichthys and taxa crownward of tiktaalik . by contrast , tinirau shares with tristichopterids a relatively anterior ventral hyomandibular facet ( figure 3c ) . in other words , this state is generally considered to diagnose tristichopterids , but is here reconstructed to be either convergent among these taxa , or to ancestrally diagnose eotetrapodiforms only primitively .", "the cephalic branches of the sensory canal system are typical of most other devonian tetrapdomorphs , although tinirau retains a few traits\u2014such as the postorbital junction of supra - and infraorbital canals , a line of continuous pores that comprise the mandibular canal , and a surangular pitline\u2014that are otherwise lost in taxa crownward of tiktaalik and acanthostega ( figures 2a , s1 , s5 ) . as in glyptopomus , marsdenichthys , tristichopterids , platycephalichthys , panderichthys , and tiktaalik , the sensory canals course through a tuberculate dermal skeleton that lacks the starburst ornamentation characteristic of the first digit - bearing elpistostegalians ( figures 3a - i , 3c , s3 , s4 , s5 ) . such elements also lack the thick \u2018shine\u2019 characteristic of cosmine - covered sarcopterygians such as megalichthyiforms .", "the shoulder is typically tetrapodomorph in form , but it bears a few differences from those of key taxa . the anterior median extrascapular margin is \u201clong\u201d and therefore unlike those of canowindrids and mandageria ( figures 2a , 3a - ii , s1 , s4 ) . a postbranchial lamina is present on the cleithrum ( figures 2a , s1 ) , although posttemporals , supracleithra , anocleithra , and an interclavicle are not preserved . unlike in elpistostegalians such as panderichthys and tiktaalik , a small scapulocorocoid is elevated from the ventral plane formed by the clavicles . however , the glenoid is relatively elongate and bears a medial \u2018accessory\u2019 region that is less reflexed than the condition seen in megalichthyiforms such as medoevia and tristichopterids such as eusthenopteron ( figures 2a , 3c , s1 ) . although the humerus is crushed , judging from the shape of the glenoids , it appears that the convex caput humeri retains less of the oblate shape than is typical of \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 . such an elongate condition is more characteristic of elpistostegalians .", "paired appendages are only preserved in ucmp 118605 ( figures 2a , s1 ) . the left humerus is crushed and situated below the cleithrum , but it articulates with the rest of a well - preserved pectoral limb . the right humerus is missing , but the elongate glenoid and distal pectoral elements remain . the pectoral limb is symplesiomorphic , and generally similar to the \u2018osteolepiform\u2019 condition . as in \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 and elpistostegalians such as panderichthys and tiktaalik , the ulna is about half as long as the radius and articulates with an ulnare and intermedium . as in \u2018osteolepiforms\u2019 , the ulnare retains a postaxial process and only articulates with two additional distal radials . proximal lepidotrichia are about three times longer than more distal ones ( figures 2a , s1 ) .", "caudally , the pelvis articulates with a femur that is preserved in association with the acetabulum , despite the disassociation of distal elements ( figures 2a , s1 , s6 ) . as in eusthenopteron , the right and left disarticulated fibulae bear preaxial radial facets positioned about one half - step proximal to their postaxial counterparts . however , and unlike in gooloogongia and eusthenopteron , the postaxial fibular process is highly reduced and not simply the \u2018fibula - equivalent\u2019 of the condition seen in the ulnare . interestingly , the pelvic limb of panderichthys also displays a similar \u2018lip\u2019 overhanging the postaxial edge of the fibulare ( [ 28 ] , figure 1 , pg . 1146 ) .", "the vertebral elements are preserved in near complete articulation , and are known only from ucmp 118605 ( figures 2a , s1 ) . paired intercentra are visible entirely in part / counterpart , and stout non - imbricate ribs radiate laterally , immediately posterior to the cleithrum . the axial skeleton proceeds through a left twist at \u223c90\u00b0 around mid - body , and posterior to the pelvis folds over itself so that the distal tip of the heterocercal caudal fin skeleton comes to face the more anterior ( dorsal ) neural spines . paired pleurocentra are not preserved and are presumed to have been cartilaginous . there is no evidence for dorsal fin radials , although dorsal fins are hypothesized to have been present . by contrast , a dissociated anal fin basal and radial are preserved immediately dorsal to the caudal fin . the notochordal canal is visible and arches dorsally through the neural and haemal arches of the caudal fin skeleton ( figures 2a , s1 ) .", "a phylogenetic analysis using paup [ 29 ] recovered a single most parsimonious tree . a bayesian analysis [ 30 ] , [ 31 ] of the same data provided an additional metric . there are no major polytomies among the \u2018osteolepiform\u2019 grade taxa . instead , the major clades , rhizodontidae , canowindridae , megalichthyiformes , and tristichopteridae form successive sister taxa to more crownward groups . tinirau emerges as the sister to platycephalichthys and elpistostegalians , one step crownward of tristichopterids ( figure 4 ) .", "analysis includes 46 taxa and 204 characters . tree length = 454 , consistency index = 0 . 5572 , retention index = 0 . 8481 ; consistency index excluding the four autapomorphic ( uninformative ) characters = 0 . 5532 , retention index = 0 . 8481 . numbers corresponding to respective nodes represent : bremer decay value / bayesian posterior probability . ghost ranges are calibrated after the early middle devonian ( eifelian ) zache\u0142mie tracks ( [ 15 ] and \u201cscenario 1\u201d from friedman and brazeau ( 2011 ) . tetrapodomorphs include all taxa that are not total - group lungfishes . rhizodonts are in green , canowindrids are in yellow , megalichthyiforms are in blue , tristichopterids are in purple , devonian elpistostegalians are in red , and carboniferous elpistostegalians are in orange . the character list and data matrix are available as supplementary information .", "this phylogenetic hypothesis implies that , ( 1 ) tristichopterid synapomorphies ( see text s1 ) have evolved in parallel during the early history of eotetrapodiforms ; and ( 2 ) the 18 + elpistostegalian synapomorphies are cut in half ( see text s1 ) as taxa such as tinirau and platycephalichthys fill the graduated history of the tetrapod stem . this is predicted by current evidence , especially with the recent finding of marine , digit - bearing tracks that predate the earliest elpistostegalian body fossils by 10 ma [ 15 ] . the discovery of tinirau fills a phylogenetic gap missing from previous discoveries even though its stratigraphic range conforms with the timing of the body fossil record . yet because \u2018genus\u2019 - level preservation rates for devonian tetrapodomorphs are an order of magnitude lower than \u2018species\u2019 - level rates for groups considered to have dense records [ 32 ] , the stratigraphic range of tinirau is not surprising . thus , when combined with the age of the trackways data , the late middle devonian ( givetian ) age of tinirau , its phylogenetic position as stem to the first digited forms , and its many symplesiomorphies may suggest a rich , yet undiscovered early tetrapodomorph record .", "however , the phylogenetic distribution of potential sarcopterygian trackmakers does bring into question whether digited tetrapodomorphs even produced the zache\u0142mie trackways . digit - bearing molds are preserved alongside continuous trackways but the \u2018digits\u2019 themselves are known only from isolated prints . crown - group coelacanths , lungfishes , and tetrapods are known to engage in trotting gaits [ 33 ] \u2013 [ 35 ] , and thus suggest substrate - based locomotor abilities in stem - tetrapods as well . moreover , recent work [ 36 ] has shown that african lungfish using a bipedal pelvic - driven gait can produce the three trackways patterns known from the zache\u0142mie quarry : ( 1 ) alternating doublets ; ( 2 ) alternating singlets ; and ( 3 ) opposite , ladder - like prints . considering this range of potential explanations , the non - congruence of continuous digited prints with trackways patterns , and the increasingly strong stratophylogenetic congruence in the stem - tetrapod body fossil record , it might be wise to approach questions about timing of origins with a pluralistic eye and a bit of additional skepticism .", "questions about palaeoenvironment are more complicated , but tinirau ' s marine preservation is consistent with the marine influenced environments of the zache\u0142mie tracks and other closely related taxa [ 7 ] , [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] , although likely not with others [ 3 ] , [ 39 ] .", "overall , the skeleton of tinirau retains many \u2018fish - like\u2019 traits , but they are combined with a suite of elpistostegalian apomorphies . because the utility of many of these characters remains obscure , here i elaborate on two traits that emerge as relevant to current discussions in tetrapodomorph evolution : the origins of the shoulder and pelvic limbs in the first digit - bearing elpistostegalians .", "as in tristichopterids such as eusthenopteron and elpistostegalians such as panderichthys , the shoulder of tinirau retains the full osteichthyan complement of dermal and endochondral components . however , despite these general similarities , its glenoid is anteroposteriorly elongate and in this respect more similar to the condition found in panderichthys , acanthostega , and juvenile specimens of tiktaalik ( figure 5a ) . interestingly , glenoids in the largest tiktaalik specimens are less elongate than those of smaller individuals [ 3 ] , [ 40 ] ( personal observations ) and may reflect ontogenetic changes . nonetheless , despite this possible autapomorphy , elongate glenoids in the first digited taxa correlate with parallel changes observed in the flattening of the caput humeri [ 2 ] , [ 41 ] \u2013 [ 45 ] . although the glenoids in medoevia , eusthenopteron , tinirau , and panderichthys have a strong posterior component , fossae in the former two taxa are more oblate than the condition present in the latter forms . this reinforces the hypothesis that mosaic changes in the pectoral limb began proximally before the distal portions acquired a more characteristic tetrapod - like morphology [ 46 ] .", "glenoids are illustrated in posterior view and highlighted in blue , fibulae are highlighted in green . the glenoid of tiktaalik is depicted from two different perspectives , posterior view ( above ) and posteroventral view ( below ) . the largest tiktaalik specimens are more oblate , which may be autapomorphic relative to the condition in more crownward devonian and carboniferous taxa . the glenoid of panderichthys was based on the shape of its caput humerus . see text for additional details . the in - plane glenoid measurement ( height at maximum extent divided by maximum length ) diagnoses an elongate glenoid fossa : medoevia = 0 . 60 ; eusthenopteron = 0 . 60 ; tinirau = 0 . 42 ; panderichthys = 0 . 48 ; tiktaalik = 0 . 44 ; acanthostega = 0 . 45 .", "the femur , tibia , and fibula represent the only pelvic elements preserved in tinirau , but they share an interesting similarity with panderichthys , the only non - digit bearing elpistostegalian from which reasonable pelvic material is known [ 28 ] . one major difference between the fibulae of a rhizodont ( e . g . , gooloogongia ) or a tristichopterid ( e . g . , eusthenopteron ) and an elpistostegalian ( e . g . , panderichthys ) is that the postaxial process in panderichthys is reduced to a mere lip or overhang bordering the posterior margin of the distal fibulare [ 4 ] , [ 28 ] , [ 47 ] ( figures 4b , s6 ) . in this respect , the lack of a prominent postaxial process in the fibula of tinirau is more similar to the condition observed in crownward taxa . this pattern underscores previous phylogenetic reconstructions of the appendicular skeleton in which conventional crown group limb characteristics first originate in the pelvic fins [ 48 ] .", "the new phylogeny also helps to displace eusthenopteron as our iconic surrogate piscine \u2018ancestor\u2019 . eusthenopteron shares with other tristichopterids a sequence of traits that nest it well within tristichopterids and not immediately along the tetrapod stem ( figure 6 ) . instead , this result builds upon the work of coates and friedman ( 2010 ) , whereby tinirau and platycephalichthys fill this position and provide an anatomical record on the transition to land . these taxa spread primitive tetrapodomorph traits along the early history of elpistostegalians , raise additional questions about when digited sarcopterygians first evolved , and fill a gap between tristichopterids and the first digited sarcopterygians in interesting and unexpected ways .", "character states supporting this topology : ( 1 ) a parasymphyseal plate not sutured to the anterior coronoid ; ( 2 ) posterior coronoids longer than more anterior coronoids ; ( 3 ) 33\u201340 % of the dermatocranium anterior to the orbits ; ( 4 ) a posteriorly displaced postspiracular ; ( 5 ) posterior coronoids one third longer than the anterior coronoids ; ( 6 ) two ectopterygoid fang pairs ; and ( 7 ) a diphycercal caudal fin .", "204 morphological characters were used to assess the phylogenetic position of the new taxon described above ( tinirau clackae ) relative to other early tetrapodomorphs . primary character sources [ 3 ] , [ 8 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 13 ] , [ 49 ] \u2013 [ 51 ] are indicated parenthetically following each character description in the supplementary information . numbers following the citations refer to the character number in the original source . characters modified from their original source are noted where applicable . very few characters are shared between this analysis and coates and friedman ( 2010 ) ; this was intentional with the goal of assessing how largely independent data sets converge on a similar result .", "characters were polarized by comparison to outgroup taxa such as porolepis , glyptolepis , powichthys , youngolepis , diabolepis , and dipterus . these taxa were selected because they represent a range of total - group lungfish that are known from reasonable material , are well studied , and generally accepted as sister to total - group tetrapods .", "characters were coded based on a combination of published descriptions , specimen illustrations , and firsthand examination of fossil material . care was taken to avoid simply recycling codings in the published literature . specimens from the following museums were examined , and are noted following each taxon in the supplementary information : australian museum , sydney ( amf ) , australian national university ( anu ) , geologisk museum , copenhagen , denmark ( mguh ) , latvian museum of natural history ( ldm ) , mus\u00e9um national d ' histoire naturelle , paris ( mnhn ) , museum victoria , melbourne , australia ( nmv ) , the natural history museum , london ( mnh ) , palaeontological institute of the russian academy of sciences , moscow ( pin ) , national museums of scotland ( nms ) , nunavut fossil vertebrate collection ( nufv ) , swedish museum of natural history , stockholm ( nr ) , university of california museum of paleontology ( ucmp ) , university museum of zoology cambridge ( umzc ) .", "the data matrix was subjected to a maximum parsimony analysis in the software package paup 4 . 0b10 [ 29 ] and a bayesian analysis using the software package mr . bayes 3 . 2 [ 30 ] , [ 31 ] . all characters were assigned an equal weight , multistate characters were run unordered , and a heuristic search algorithm was used in paup to search for the shortest networks\u2014rooted on porolepis , glyptolepis , powichthys , youngolepis , diabolepis , and dipterus . bremer decay indices were calculated using paup [ 29 ] and tnt [ 52 ] , [ 53 ] , and bayesian posterior probabilities were calculated with mr . bayes following an analysis that included 500 , 000 mcmc generations , sampling every 1 , 000 generations , and with 20 samples discarded as burnin . character evolution was examined in macclade [ 54 ] , which was also used to produce the character state distributions in the supplementary information .", "the material was prepared by an acid immersion procedure including baths of 30 % formic acid or 10\u201320 % acetic acid for 10\u201348 hours , followed by washing in running water for one month , and air -

like shell . zilch ( 1960 : 567 - 568 ) has summarized the knowledge of streptostele on the generic / subgeneric level ; in 1959 venmans had added the subgenus textostele , which is not covered in zilch\u2019s overview . schileyko ( 2000 : 802 - 807 ) has included anatomical data where available . it is difficult to find characters to reliably separate streptostele and gulella . repeatedly attention has been drawn to the poor delimitation of the genera in the streptaxidae ( e . g . , van bruggen & van goethem , 1997 : 6 - 7 , for gulella ) ; regrettably anatomical data are still very scarce and do not materially assist here . generally streptostele species appear to have costulate shells with no , or very poorly developed , apertural dentition . also , the number of whorls at times may be quite high ( i . e . , 7 - 10 ) , although a few nominal species may have numbers of whorls as low as in the above - described new species ( e . g . , streptostele jaeckeli venmans , 1959 ) . for the time being the new taxon has been classified with gulella , which genus in itself may be a polyphyletic unit .", ". . . forest reserves apart from a juvenile at msitu mkuu fr ( table 2 ) . on pemba , juvenile shells have complex dentition at a variety of stages . the living animal is creamcoloured . recent systematic work ( = -

forest habitat types , including the 10 most abundant species . these include several taxa treated by verdcourt ( 2000 ) as forest specialists ( tayloria shimbiensis , opeas delicatum , subulona ordinaria ) and at least one previously unrecorded from forest habitats ( assiminea aurifera ) . both the pemba - endemic cyathopoma pembense and the eastern arc species \u201cgulella\u201d aenigmatica occurred only in msitu mkuu fr and in non - forest sites . the remaining five species ( approximately 10 % ) were found only in non - forest habitats . these include the only certainly introduced species ( striosubulina striatella ) as well as two further taxa treated by verdcourt ( 2000 ) as forest specialists ( thapsia insulsa and gulella sexdentata ) .", "conversely , 92\u201398 % of pemba\u2019s land - snail species occur elsewhere . to date about 8 of these ( 16 % ) are known only from small areas of adjacent tanzania or kenya ( cyathopoma azaniense , \u201cgulella\u201d aenigmatica , tayloria shimbiensis etc . ) and could comprise a vicariant fauna whose ranges were split only by the pemba channel graben . alternatively , these and the remainder that occur more widely ( gulella planidens , streptostele acicula , etc . ) could have arrived by post - isolation dispersal , with species occurring nearby most likely to arrive soonest . successful dispersal to pemba argues against an especially strong isolation , since gene exchange with the mainland would remain possible . this contrasts with pemba\u2019s volant species for which winds are thought to have strongly limited westward passage from the mainland ( moreau and pakenham 1940 ; baker and baker 2002 ) . although accidental introduction by man has played a largely unknown but probably greater part in the land - snail fauna , subfossils on aldabra ( e . g . gerlach and griffiths 2002 ) indicate natural , overseas dispersal by land - snails in the region . rivers outflowing eastwards from the mainland ( e . g . the pangani , wami and ruvu ) could aid the dispersal of rafting taxa such as land - snails to the islands , even against seasonally prevailing currents . this could explain the discrepancy with the endemism in volant taxa .", "the shell of g . streptostelopsis spec . nov . is subject to some variation in dimensions as shown by table 1 . the abundant material allowed for a check on clinal variation . however , it appears that there is no discernible geographical pattern in the measurements of the shell of the new species . both small and large shells derive from southern populations and to a slightly lesser degree this also applies to northern populations . as regards size it is not always easy to decide what shells are really adult , vide loc . 5 in table 1 ( shells nos . 20 and 25 ) . this sample consists of three shells , ( a ) a juvenile , 2 . 0 mm long and with 5 \u00bc whorls , but with developed apertural teeth and reflected labrum ; ( b ) a subadult , 2 . 21 mm long and with < 5\u00be whorls ( no . 20 in table 1 ) with poorly developed dentition and labrum ; ( c ) an adult , 2 . 25 mm long and with 5\u00be whorls ( no . 25 in table 1 ) with properly developed dentition and labrum .", "is there a pattern to be discerned in the distribution of the species under discussion ? there is an indication for this because so far g . streptostelopsis spec . nov . was not found in the mt . mulanje complex in the south of mala\u0175i , and also not on the nyika plateau and in the misuku hills in the north , all areas well searched for micro - molluscs . ms h . m . meredith and her co - workers throughout the years 1975 - 1988 have extensively worked these areas by sampling the leaf litter of many forests in and around mt . mulanje , the nyika national park ( including the chowo forest just over the border with zambia ) , and the misuku hills . dr r . jocqu\u00e9 ( mrac ) has also worked on leaf litter on the nyika plateau and the present author and his wife have done the same on the nyika plateau and in the misuku hills in 1990 . all this leads to the albeit preliminary conclusion that absence here might reflect a genuine distribution pattern . such a conclusion would generate two questions . would the new species reach its northern limits here , and , if so , what does delimit its distribution ?", "html public \" -

kidney glomerular filtration rate ( gfr ; a measure of the rate at which the kidneys filter the plasma ) is much more responsive to hydration state in birds than in mammals , decreasing with dehydration or salt loading and increasing with water loading ( goldstein and skadhauge , 2000 ) . studies carried out in a range of bird species indicate that this is due to release of arginine vasotocin ( avt ) , which acts mainly on gfr , while having a relatively modest effect on the water permeability of the collecting ducts ( goldstein , 2006 ; nishimura and fan , 2003 ) . the reduction of gfr by avt occurs through a decrease in filtration by reptilian - type nephrons , with mammalian - type nephrons being less affected ( goldstein and skadhauge , 2000 ) . in nectarivores , plasma avt concentration increases with increasing sugar concentration , presumably reflecting a hormonal response to increased plasma osmotic concentration ( gray et al . , 2004 ) . surprisingly , in view of the high variation in water intake , gfr does not vary with water loading for the three avian nectarivore lineages ( goldstein and bradshaw , 1998 ; hartman bakken and sabat , 2006 ; purchase et al . , 2013b ) , although gfr is greatly reduced at night ( see below ) .", "high water fluxes are a problem for salt conservation , and avian nectarivores are very efficient at minimizing electrolyte losses in the cloacal fluid : for example , whitebellied sunbirds feeding on 0 . 25 mol l \u22121 sucrose solutions void cloacal fluid with an osmolality of only 6 mosmol kg \u22121 ( fleming and nicolson , 2003 ) . despite similar abilities to produce copious volumes of dilute excreta across the three nectarivore lineages , the birds handle dilute diets differently . extremely dilute , sucrose diets devoid of electrolytes cause hummingbirds to stop feeding and go into torpor , while honeyeaters and sunbirds suffer decreased plasma sodium levels and are unable to maintain energy balance ( fleming et al . , 2004c ; goldstein and bradshaw , 1998 ; lotz and mart\u00ednez del rio , 2004 ) . nectarivores thus appear to be constrained in their intake of dilute diets due to hyponatremia , i . e . low plasma sodium concentration ( fleming and nicolson , 2003 ) , and the addition of even small amounts of sodium ( 5\u201310 mmol l \u22121 ) to very dilute sucrose diets results in a marked decrease in plasma aldosterone concentration ( the active principle of the renin\u2013angiotensin\u2013aldosterone system , stimulating renal reabsorption of sodium ) ( fleming et al . , 2004a ) and enables whitebellied sunbirds and new holland honeyeaters to increase consumption , up to an extraordinary eight times their body mass daily ( purchase et al . , 2010 ) .", "html public \" -

concentrating or cooling purposes .", "bees are not normally model insects for studying water balance . bee physiology is characterised by endothermy in even small species ( stone and willmer , 1989 ) and is complicated by the social context . bees show the full spectrum of sociality : although most are solitary it is the social bumblebees and honeybees whose physiology and behaviour are most familiar to us ( willmer and stone , 2004 ) . in addition , the sophisticated thermal physiology of bees has received much more attention ( e . g . heinrich , 1985 ; kovac et al . , 2007 ) than their water regulation . here i briefly examine the water balance physiology of bees , considering the usual avenues of water gain and loss , at two levels of organisation : the individual and the colony , sometimes termed a ` superorganism ' ( moritz and southwick , 1992 ) . it is accepted that social homeostasis can be explained by the coordinated activity of bees as individuals , responding to their internal or external environment , without the need to invoke centralised control ( jones and oldroyd , 2007 ; seeley , 1995 ) .", "water fluxes of honeybees can be very high at the colony level . for example , seeley estimated average annual requirements of 120 kg of nectar , 20 kg of pollen and 25 litres of water for a single wild colony ( seeley , 1995 ) . this applies to honeybees in cold temperate conditions , and the estimate for nectar includes substantial energy stores required for over - wintering . the seasonal cycles of african honeybees are limited by rainfall , not temperature , and better foraging weather means that in comparison massive honey stores are not needed ( hepburn and radloff , 1998 ) .", "while male bees of most species take care of their own energetic needs , all female bees forage far beyond their individual needs , collecting pollen and nectar as provisions for the offspring they raise ; therefore activity patterns of the sexes may be very different ( willmer and stone , 2004 ) . where comparisons have been made , male xylocopa capitata and anthophora plumipes carry much smaller crop loads than do females ( louw and nicolson , 1983 ; stone , 1995 ) . the impermeable crop expands greatly for storage and transport of nectar and protects the haemolymph from osmotic shock . apis mellifera workers can carry close to their body mass in nectar , although crop loads tend to be much smaller ( schmid - hempel et al . , 1985 ) and are positively correlated with the nectar concentration ( hunt et al . , 1995 ) . this suggests that under natural conditions honeybees might carry less than during experiments in which they are fed concentrated sugar syrup ( e . g . park , 1932 ; waller , 1972 ) . their feeding system is designed to retain nectar in the crop for as long as possible . sugar leaves the crop at a rate dependent on the metabolic rate of the individual , but the fluid - emptying rate ( and the rate of rectal filling ) are inversely proportional to nectar concentration ( roces and blatt , 1999 ) .", "female allodapula variegata concentrating the dilute ( 14 % ) nectar of aloe arborescens by evaporation . the regurgitated droplet , held under the tongue , is repeatedly sucked in and out and may be very large in relation to the size of the bee ( body length 7 mm ) . photo , michael ellis .", "fresh pollen is relatively dehydrated after exposure at anthesis , but its water content increases after collection by bees due to the addition of nectar and glandular secretions ( human and nicolson , 2006 ) . the larval diets of bees vary greatly in water content ( roubik , 1989 ) . the water content of royal jelly is around 67 % ( wongchai and ratanavalachai , 2002 ) , but the larval food of stingless bees contains less water , a thicker consistency being necessary for larvae floating on top of mass provisions ( hartfelder and engels , 1989 ) . large carpenter bees provision their nests with semi - solid masses of pollen combined with nectar , giving a final water content of only 20 % in the provisions of x . capitata ( louw and nicolson , 1983 ) . in xylocopa mordax , nectar is pre - concentrated on the tongue for this purpose ( corbet and willmer , 1980 ) .", "honeybees prefer sugar concentrations of 30\u201350 % ( sugar concentrations here are given as % w / w as in refractometer measurements ) under experimental conditions ( waller , 1972 ) , but in practice they collect from a much wider range of nectars . seeley measured 15\u201365 % in nectar loads being brought into a single colony ( seeley , 1986 ) , and hunt and colleagues recorded a similar range of concentrations in incoming loads ( hunt et al . , 1995 ) . the choice of nectar concentration depends on the ecological context , i . e . on the other food sources available at the time . this has long been a complicating factor in experimental studies of honeybee foraging behaviour . for example , lindauer found that the threshold sucrose concentration for eliciting recruitment behaviour declined from 55 % to 4 % as the german summer progressed ( lindauer , 1948 ) . empirical measurements of energy intake rate in bees show peak values at sucrose concentrations around 60 % in bumblebees , stingless bees and honeybees ( harder , 1986 ; roubik and buchmann , 1984 ) . note that for orchid bees ( euglossini ) , which use suction feeding rather than a lapping mechanism , optimal concentrations are lower and more dilute nectars are collected ( borrell , 2004 ) .", "communal food storage requires that the osmolality of honey is high enough to inhibit microbial growth ( pusey , 1999 ) . in honeybees this is achieved first by hydrolysis of nectar sucrose to glucose and fructose , through the addition of hypopharyngeal gland enzymes , and then through evaporative processing by food - handling bees to reach a concentration of about 82 % . these bees evaporate nectar on their tongues before placing droplets in open cells for further evaporation , accelerated by fanning ( park , 1925 ) . among stingless bees , workers drink water condensed in the nest during honey ripening and regurgitate it outside the entrance ( roubik , 2006 ) . their ripened honey is around 70 % in concentration and tends to ferment ( cortopassi - laurino et al . , 2006 ; roubik , 2006 ) . note that uncapped honey is hygroscopic and absorbs water , so can be both a sink and source of water in the nest .", "trophallaxis is the regurgitation of the crop contents of a donor bee for ingestion by receiver bees . extremely rapid distribution of incoming nectar was demonstrated by nixon and ribbands , who fed radiolabelled food to six foragers and were able to detect the label in 62 % of all foragers after only 4 h and in all large larvae in unsealed cells after 48 h ( nixon and ribbands , 1952 ) . trophallactic interactions ensure that homeostasis is achieved in the ` collective stomach ' of all workers , which is a nectar reserve for the colony ( schmickl and crailsheim , 2004 ) . similarly , colonies preparing to swarm store concentrated food in their crops , comprising 20\u201330 % of the mass of individuals and of the swarm ( combs , 1972 ) . in addition to its nutritional significance , liquid transfer between adults is a means of exchange of information about the quality and quantity of food reserves in the colony ( crailsheim , 1998 ) .", "it is not clear whether solitary bees drink water for their own needs , as distinct from seeking dilute nectar . large aggregations of bees of various genera can be seen foraging at wet soil substrates in the tropics , then regurgitating and reimbibing fluid , and this may be a means of obtaining salts ( roubik , 1989 ) . although bumblebees are not expected to drink , marked bombus terrestris were observed drinking repeatedly from a water trough during warm conditions ( ferry and corbet , 1996 ) : it is unlikely that individual bumblebees would have a water deficit so this was probably for the benefit of the colony . when groups of 100 honeybees are confined in cages and provided with 67 % sugar , they drink about 10 \u03bcl of water daily at t a of 35\u00b0c and 40\u00b0c ( free and spencer - booth , 1958 ) .", "honeybee colonies collect water for two reasons , related to different types of weather : for cooling of the brood area by evaporation on hot days , and for feeding the larval brood when foraging is limited on cool days ( lindauer , 1955 ; seeley , 1995 ) . the classic studies of lindauer showed how bees regulate the hive temperature in hot conditions ( lindauer , 1955 ) . water is collected by water foragers , then distributed around the hive and in cells containing eggs and larvae ; fanning accelerates its evaporation , as does regurgitation and evaporation on the tongue ( lindauer , 1955 ) . visscher and colleagues measured mean water loads of 44 mg in honeybees collecting water under desert conditions ( visscher et al . , 1996 ) . paper wasps and hornets also use water for cooling their nests , but the highly social stingless bees do not ( jones and oldroyd , 2007 ; roubik , 2006 ) .", "the second need for water \u2013 for consumption by nurse bees when feeding the brood \u2013 is an aspect of water use by honeybees that tends to be underestimated ( johansson and johansson , 1978 ) . nurse bees feed young larvae a secretion from their hypopharyngeal glands ; for worker larvae after the third day this jelly is supplemented with honey and pollen ( crailsheim , 1998 ) . as already mentioned , the water content of royal jelly is high , so nurse bees have a great need for water when brood rearing is intensive ; this water cannot always be obtained from nectar .", "the regulation of water collection in honeybees is discussed in detail by seeley ( seeley , 1995 ) . in essence , the rate of unloading of water foragers indicates the colony demand for water ( i . e . the feedback system is similar to that for nectar ) . in this way the balance between collection and consumption of water is maintained . importantly , water collection does not interfere with the collection of concentrated nectar by the colony ( kuhnholz and seeley , 1997 ) . the first bees to start water collection may be stimulated by the collective increase in crop sugar concentration of all bees in the nest , due to trophallaxis ( lindauer , 1955 ; seeley , 1995 ) , or possibly by the collective increase in haemolymph osmolality . apart from environmental factors , the tendency of honeybee foragers to collect water , nectar or pollen has a genetic component ( hunt et al . , 1995 ) . workers with the lowest sucrose response thresholds , i . e . those able to distinguish low sucrose concentrations from water in proboscis extension response tests , become water foragers ( pankiw and page , 2000 ) .", "water foraging is regulated according to current demand and water is not stored in combs by temperate honeybee colonies : this is because nectar availability fluctuates widely and water sources usually do not ( seeley , 1995 ) . for african honeybees , occasional water storage has been recorded in wild bee nests , as after summer rain in the kalahari desert ( eksteen and johannsmeier , 1991 ) . park recorded temporary storage of water in the crops of ` reservoir bees ' ( park , 1923 ) .", "studies on the mechanisms by which bees thermoregulate in flight have yielded data on the relative magnitudes of metabolic water gains and evaporative water losses for bees as individuals . metabolic water production by large flying bees ( xylocopa and bombus ) is substantial ( bertsch , 1984 ; nicolson and louw , 1982 ) , especially at low or moderate t a . honeybees ferrying large water loads to the hive at high t a produce enough metabolic water to offset their evaporative water losses ( louw and hadley , 1985 ) . however , it cannot be assumed that metabolic gains will balance evaporative losses in flight . because variation in metabolic heat production is used by bees ( apis and centris ) as a primary mechanism of thermoregulation in flight ( roberts and harrison , 1999 ; roberts et al . , 1998 ) , at high t a metabolic water production will decrease as evaporative water loss increases . for individual bees , the thermal environment is crucial to water balance in flight .", "bees engaged in brood warming generate metabolic heat using their flight muscles . at low t a , the metabolic rates of incubating bumblebees are extremely high ( heinrich , 1974 ) . honeybee brood nest temperatures are maintained constant at about 35\u00b0c by bees that ` shiver ' on the comb surface or inside empty cells in the brood area ( kleinhenz et al . , 2003 ) , and high metabolic water production can be assumed during this energy - intensive heating activity . however , the general colony heat production to which all workers contribute does not require much increase in metabolism ( harrison , 1987 ) .", "in flying a . mellifera and centris pallida there is a negative relationship between water balance and t a , the bees being in negative water balance at t a above 31\u00b0c ( roberts and harrison , 1999 ; roberts et al . , 1998 ) . although the cuticular permeability of both species increases with t a , neither cuticular nor respiratory water losses are sufficient to explain the very high evaporative water losses at high t a . these probably involve cooling mechanisms such as regurgitation of crop contents onto the proboscis ( heinrich , 1980 ) . this ` tongue lashing ' at high t a has been observed in a variety of bees ( roberts and harrison , 1998 ) and in honeybees has been shown to increase evaporative losses dramatically ( louw and hadley , 1985 ) . as a result , the thoracic temperatures of nectar and water foragers are significantly lower than those of pollen foragers ( cooper et al . , 1985 ; feuerbacher et al . , 2003 ) .", "the amount of water that has to be evaporated from dilute nectar is enormous ( fig . 2 ) . in order to increase the sugar concentration from 20 % to 82 % , bees must evaporate 0 . 75 g water for every 1 g of nectar collected , and the mass of honey produced from a given mass of nectar is correspondingly reduced . recently we have shown that foragers of a . mellifera scutellata collecting dilute nectar of aloe greatheadii var . davyana in dry winter air begin to concentrate the nectar before returning to the hive ( nicolson and human , 2008 ) . because the crop is impermeable to both sugar and water , we can only explain the doubling of crop sugar concentration , from 20 % to 40 % , by evaporation on the tongue . this contradicts the conventional wisdom that the concentration of nectar is unchanged during its transport by bees between flowers and the hive ( park , 1932 ) . the advantage for the bees lies in reducing the water load that has to be carried and the amount of evaporation needed in the hive ( fig . 2 ) ; the cooling effect is less desirable for individual foragers but disturbances of heat or water balance can be corrected in the hive .", "relative masses of sugar and water in nectars of various concentrations and in honey ( horizontal red line ) . the figure shows the nectar - processing advantage for apis mellifera scutellata workers concentrating the nectar of aloe greatheadii var . davyana from 20 % to 40 % on their tongues : two - thirds of the necessary evaporation is achieved before the bees return to the hive ( nicolson and human , 2008 ) .", "the various processes involved in cooling the honeybee nest \u2013 collecting water , spreading it within the brood comb , and speeding its evaporation by fanning and regurgitation \u2013 have been mentioned above . this enables the temperature in the brood area to be precisely regulated at 35\u00b0c , but humidity in the hive is less constant ( human et al . , 2006 ) . air in the hive will generally be more humid than outside , as a result of transpiration of the inhabitants and evaporation during nectar flows . while high humidity is necessary for brood development , a dry atmosphere favours nectar ripening . we have measured absolute humidity ( thus excluding temperature effects ) in various regions of the hive , and found higher values in the brood area than in nectar stores , suggesting adjustments by the bees ( human et al . , 2006 ) . however , trade - offs with regulation of temperature and respiratory gases will disrupt the establishment of optimum humidity levels .", "colony level respiration is important in social homeostasis . periodic synchronised fanning leads to tidal ventilation in honeybees and stingless bees when only one nest entrance is present ( moritz and crewe , 1988 ; southwick and moritz , 1987 ) . measurement of cyclic fluctuations in water vapour pressure and temperature at the nest entrance would enable estimation of evaporative water losses at the colony level .", "the non - random disposal of the excreta of social insects , such as ejecting faeces late in larval development , is assumed to be for hygienic reasons ( weiss , 2006 ) . in honeybee larvae , the midgut\u2013hindgut junction is occluded until the end of the larval stage , and defaecation coincides with cocoon formation , the excreta being incorporated into the structure of the cocoon ( jay , 1964 ) . healthy adult apis do not defaecate in the nest , even during overwintering in temperate climates ( but defaecation in or around the nest is a sign of infection with the midgut parasite nosema ) . defaecation flights occur when weather permits , and until then rectal fluid may be stored for prolonged periods , the distended rectum occupying much of the abdominal cavity ( fig . 3 ) . obviously an individual honeybee ' s water content fluctuates enormously depending on the volume of crop or rectal contents . an inverse relationship between crop and rectal volumes has been measured in honeybees confined for varying times after feeding ( roces and blatt , 1999 ) .", "mass defaecation flights are conspicuous in tropical honeybees , and led to the ` yellow rain ' scare , due to the high proportion of pollen exines in the faeces ( mardan and kevan , 1989 ) . heat - shedding benefits have been suggested for the giant honeybee apis dorsata , which builds exposed combs and engages in mass flights involving half the colony , each bee jettisoning 20 % of its body mass ( mardan and kevan , 1989 ) . however , more comprehensive recordings for the same species show that mass flight activity is highest during maximum brood production , and timed so that brood temperature is minimally affected by the temporary absence of the protective curtain of bees ( woyke et al . , 2004 ) . water shedding may be a more important function of mass flights than heat shedding .", "bees are less subject to desiccation than most terrestrial insects . this is because their nectar diet and high metabolic water production during flight frequently generate excess water . water fluxes in the honeybee colony are also high , due to honey ripening and periodic water demand for evaporative cooling and for feeding the brood . very importantly , the favourable microclimate created by the nest architecture and its densely aggregated inhabitants reduces evaporative water losses and provides a hydric and thermal refuge for returning foragers .", "honeybee abdomen showing full crop ( a ) or full rectum ( b ) . adapted from plate 8 in dade ( dade , 1962 ) .", "workers of apis mellifera do not forage for themselves and in social bees there is a blurring between the individual and colony in terms of water balance physiology . common to water regulation at both the individual and colony level is the regurgitation of nectar or water on the tongue for evaporative purposes . this is involved in water elimination from nectar both in the hive and during foraging , and water is evaporated in the same way to cool either the hive or the individual bee in flight . heinrich has previously drawn attention to the similarities in individual cooling , nest cooling and food storage behaviours ( heinrich , 1985 ) . perhaps these all originate in bubbling ( a term i prefer to tongue lashing ) , which appears to function as a nectar - concentrating mechanism in a variety of bees , and may have a profound influence on the water balance physiology of solitary bees in addition to social homeostasis . the high propensity of bees for regurgitation is important in both trophallaxis , which is not confined to highly social species ( kukuk and crozier , 1990 ) , and bubbling to evaporate water .", "i thank julian dow for inviting me to contribute to this volume , connal eardley for identifying allodapine bees , and christian pirk for commenting on the manuscript . the paper is dedicated to simon maddrell and his enduring fascination with water in insects .", "cooper , p . d . , schaffer , w . m . and buchmann , s . l .", ") . pollination of the yellow passionfruit : nectar , pollen and carpenter bees .", "cortopassi -

term fasts and rapidly restore energy balance without using torpor . in conclusion , sunbirds and honeyeaters demonstrate a degree of physiological plasticity in dealing with digestive and renal challenges of their nectar diet , while hummingbirds appear to be more constrained by this diet .", "nectar has been described as \u2018the simplest food on earth\u2019 ( mart\u00ednez del rio et al . , 2001 ) , but nevertheless may pose significant physiological challenges for animals feeding on it . since we reviewed the topic a decade ago ( nicolson and fleming , 2003b ) , researchers in the americas , africa and australia have made substantial progress towards comparing the physiology of the three main lineages of specialized avian nectarivores : the hummingbirds ( trochilidae ) , sunbirds ( nectariniidae ) and honeyeaters ( meliphagidae ) ( fig . 1 ) . numerous other bird families show varying reliance on nectar ( nicolson and fleming , 2003b ; symes et al . , 2008 ) , but this commentary will focus on how the main radiations deal with the challenges of nectarivory , highlighting both convergence and differences in their responses .", "the relatively low concentration of bird nectars [ compared with insect nectars ( pyke and waser , 1981 ) ] is the fundamental reason for the physiological problems associated with a nectar diet . flowers visited by hummingbirds and sunbirds produce nectar averaging 10\u201330 \u03bcl in volume and 15\u201325 % w / w ( 0 . 5\u20130 . 8 mol l \u22121 sucrose equivalents ) in concentration [ while flowers visited by generalist birds produce nectars that are even more copious and dilute ( johnson and nicolson , 2008 ) ] . nectar can also be diluted by rainfall events . the challenge of drinking dilute diets is that the birds must handle large volumes of preformed water , necessitating fast transit times ( i . e . time for food to pass through the gut , thus minimizing mass gain , which would interfere with flight ) , and yet maintain high assimilation efficiency , while also warming this large volume of fluid to body temperature . more concentrated nectars are likely to be less problematic , because switching between plants would enable birds to access more dilute nectar and thus balance water intake . the other major challenge is that nectar also contains very little by way of other solutes ; nectarivorous birds therefore have to deal with low electrolyte intake as well as low nitrogen , although their nitrogen requirements are relatively low ( tsahar et al . , 2006 ) .", "it might be predicted that the physiological constraints of a \u2018simple\u2019 nectar diet would result in convergence in physiological responses of the different lineages of nectarivorous birds . however , recent findings indicate that this is not always the case and we now know that these birds show interesting differences in response to their nectar diets ( fig . 2 ) . in the first half of this commentary , we examine some common strategies for dealing with the challenges of a nectar diet . in the second half , we examine available data that indicate differences in how hummingbirds , sunbirds and honeyeaters deal with these challenges .", ") , this field is receiving renewed attention , and not without controversy . rico - guevara and rubega (", ") presented morphological measurements of hummingbird tongues and high - speed videos of drinking that showed that the tongue traps liquid as a result of surface tension ; this requires no energy expenditure by the bird and does not involve capillary action , which suggests that viscosity is not important . this finding was disputed by kim et al . (", ") , who used a modeling approach to differentiate between different modes of nectar drinking , showing that the \u2018capillary suction\u2019 mechanism used by hummingbirds , sunbirds and honeyeaters is associated with optimal concentrations in the range 30\u201350 % ( 1 . 0\u20131 . 8 mol l", "sucrose ; much higher than natural nectar concentrations ) . after further theoretical and experimental analysis of drinking in ruby - throated hummingbirds ,", "the methods / techniques used to study the interactions between a substance and the body from administration to excretion ( absorption , distribution , metabolism ) .", "in addition to concentration , nectar volumes are important for tongue loading . the volume of nectar determines its height in tubular floral corollas , and partial immersion of the tongue is common ( kim et al . , 2012 ) . when honeyeaters and hummingbirds feed from tubular artificial flowers , the amount of nectar loaded per lick increases with greater nectar volumes or shorter flowers , both of which increase the contact between tongue and nectar ( collins , 2008 ) . however , honeyeaters also commonly extract nectar from open , brush - type inflorescences and the effects of inflorescence shape on feeding rates have yet to be investigated .", "specialized avian nectarivores from three lineages . ( a ) whitebellied sunbird , cinnyris talatala ( photo credit : rudi van aarde ) , ( b ) new holland honeyeater , phylidonyris novaehollandiae ( kathryn napier ) and ( c ) charming hummingbird , amazilia decora ( cole wolf ) .", "some key physiological differences between the three specialist bird lineages . a representative hummingbird , honeyeater and sunbird ( note the differences in body size ) are shown feeding on nectar of an erythrina species , a major bird - pollinated genus that occurs in the natural range of all three lineages . all lineages show high rates of intestinal sucrase activity ( highest for the hummingbirds ; thicker yellow lines ) and rapid absorption of hexose sugars ( orange arrows ) , but the passerines are capable of shunting water directly through the gut ( blue dotted lines ) and therefore do not only rely on filtration by the kidneys ( blue solid lines ) . * hummingbirds show only a small medullary portion to their kidneys ( shaded green ) , which limits their abilities to produce hyperosmotic urine .", "nectar - feeding birds are compensatory feeders over a wide range of nectar concentrations ( mart\u00ednez del rio et al . , 2001 ; nicolson and fleming , 2003a ) . this means that they adjust their volumetric intake rapidly in response to changes in energy density ( fleming et al . , 2004b ; k\u00f6hler et al . , 2008 ) . sugar concentration consequently has a marked effect on their sugar preferences . probably because of the rapid transit times and because hexose nectars do not require hydrolysis in order for the sugars to be assimilated , a hexose diet is preferred by both generalist and specialist nectar - feeding birds on dilute diets [ for references , see napier et al . ( napier et al . , 2013 ) ] .", "interestingly , most species tested to date show a switch to no preference or even sucrose preference on concentrated diets ( e . g . data for the red wattlebird , anthochaera carunculata , are shown in fig . 3a ) . the concentration at which the switch occurs varies between species , and the minimum sugar concentration at which birds show no hexose preference is significantly correlated with intestinal sucrase activity for 11 bird species , even after phylogenetic correction ( fig . 3b ) ( napier et al . , 2013 ) . birds with no sucrase activity ( e . g . redwinged starlings , onychognathus morio ) or relatively low sucrase activity ( e . g . rainbow lorikeets , trichoglossus haematodus ) prefer hexoses at higher sugar concentrations , while birds with the greatest sucrase activity ( i . e . hummingbirds , but also sunbirds and honeyeaters ) either show no hexose preference or hexose preference on only the most dilute diets ( napier et al . , 2013 ) ."]}

senthil - nathan and kalaivani , 2005 , 2006 ; ntalli and menkissoglu - spiroudi , 2011 ) . plant community is the most efficient source for natural pesticide . it synthesizes numerous products , many of which have been shown to effect on insect and other harmful organism . some are highly toxic to a wide range of organisms , including both vertebrates and invertebrates . but majority of plant derived compounds are affecting insects and are comparatively harmless to vertebrates . such compounds are toxic causing mortality or reduced growth of pest insects . phytochemcial modes - of - action are more complicated . most of them are affecting insect performance by repelling an insect and feeding deterrence or oviposition deterrence ."]}

generation borers are the principal source of ear damage . heavily tunneled stalks of grain corn suffer from lodging , reducing the capacity for machine harvesting . lodging is not a serious threat to sweet corn . boring by corn borers also allows several fungi to affect corn plants .", "genetically modified foods are foods derived from gmo crops . for example , corn produced through biotechnology is being used in many familiar foods , including corn meal and tortilla chips . in addition , corn is used to make high fructose corn syrup , which is used as a sweetener in many foods such as soft drinks and baked goods . while the fda ( u . s . food and drug administration ) regulates genetically modified foods , it considers bt - corn to be nutritionally equivalent to traditional corn .", "management of ecb has changed significantly over the past few years , shifting to the use of bt - corn hybrids , which provide virtually 100 % protection against ecb infestation . these products are used as preventive measures against ecb . transgenic corn hybrids are available containing a bt corn borer gene alone or more commonly in combination with a bt gene for control of corn rootworm larval root feeding . currently , there are three transgenic families from different companies with the bt - corn borer gene : agrisure , herculex , and yieldgard . hybrids from these families with the bt - corn borer gene provide excellent control of ecb . when using any of these transgenic corn hybrids whether with the transgenic cb trait alone or in combination , growers need to follow certain epa regulations that include the use of a 20 % refuge . growers should see their seed dealers for all the requirements and guidelines to follow when planting transgenic hybrids .", "extensive use of this technology could result in resistance to the toxin developing in the corn borer population . to reduce the probability of this happening , corn without the bt - like gene should also be grown in bt corn areas . this non - bt corn will act as a refuge for some of the corn borers , thus preserving the genetic diversity that is now in the corn borer population . if these refuge are not included in plantings of bt corn , the technology may be short lived or seed companies will constantly have to introduce new genes , if available , or stack genes to combat this situation . with this in mind , producers should develop resistance management strategies that reduce this risk . contact your state cooperative extension service for resistance management plans . in general , it is suggested that at least 20 % of the acreage in an area be grown in non - bt corn .", "a major pest of corn , the european corn borer ( ostrinia nubilalis ) will also feed on over 300 different garden plants including peppers , snap beans , potatoes , tomatoes , apples and gladiolus . damage to corn is caused by the young larvae which chew leaves and tassels . later they tunnel all parts of the stalks and ears , resulting in reduced plant vigor , broken stalks , poor ear development and dropped ears . other crops are damaged primarily by the tunneling of the stalks , pods or stems by the larvae .", "techniques other than adult capture can be used to estimate borer phenology . plant phenology can be used to predict corn borer development . thermal summations are also highly predictive . moths seek shelter during the daylight hours in dense grass and weeds near corn fields . flushing moths from such habitats gives an estimate of population densities . eggs can be sampled by visual examination , but this is a very time - consuming effort .", "host plant resistance . extensive breeding research has been conducted , and resistance has been incorporated into grain corn , especially against corn borer populations with only a single annual generation . a principal factor in seedling resistance to young larvae is a chemical known as dimboa , which functions as a repellent and feeding deterrent . it has proven difficult to incorporate the known resistance factors into sweet corn without degradation of quality .", "biological control . biological control has been attempted repeatedly in sweet corn and other vegetables susceptible to european corn borer attack . bacillus thuringiensis products can be as effective as many chemical insecticides , but often prove to be less effective than some . most single -

( hymenoptera : trichogrammatidae ) , for example , provides variable and moderate levels of suppression .", "in crops other than corn , the pattern of damage is variable . european corn borer larvae damage both the stem and fruit of beans , pepper , and cowpea . in celery , potato , rhubarb , swiss chard , and tomato , it is usually the stem tissue that is damaged . in beet , spinach , and rhubarb , leaf tissue may be injured . entry of borers into plant tissue facilitates entry of plant pathogens . the incidence of potato blackleg caused by the bacterium erwinia carotovora atroseptica , for example , is higher in potato fields with stems heavily infested by corn borers . direct damage by corn borers to potato vines , however , results in negligible yield loss .", "in southern south dakota , european corn borer can have up to two generations per year ( bivoltine ) . bivoltine moths begin flight in mid - may and eggs are laid on the underside of v6 - v9 corn leaves . these caterpillars will also feed on corn leaves and tunnel into stalks . pupation occurs within corn stalks and emerging adults begin laying eggs on the underside of leaves , leaf collars , and on ear husks during tasseling ( vt ) and silking ( r1 ) . eggs hatch roughly a week later , and caterpillars tunnel into the stalks and ear shanks where they feed on developing kernels . late instar caterpillars overwinter in stalk residues and pupate the following spring .", "the first generation occurs in late may to late june . early planted corn has greatest potential for damage . the second generation occurs in late june to august . late planted corn is most attractive to this generation . a third generation occurs in late july and overwinters in the corn stems .", "yield loss associated with european corn borer is due to caterpillar feeding , as adult moths do not injure corn . newly hatched caterpillars feed on leaf collars and sometimes migrate towards the tassels to feed on pollen . young caterpillars often feed on the leaf surface and midribs , often referred to as \u201cwindow pane\u201d injury ( figure 3 ) . midway through development caterpillars will feed within the whorl , creating \u201cshot hole\u201d type injury that becomes visible when the leaves unfurl ( figure 3 ) . near the end of development , caterpillars will tunnel into corn stalks , ear shanks , and into the ears .", "fully grown corn borer larvae ( 3 / 4 \u2013 1 inch long ) are extremely destructive flesh - colored caterpillars with a reddish or dark brown head and several distinct spots on the top of each abdominal ring or segment . the adult borer is a night - flying yellowish - brown colored moth ( 1 inch wingspan ) with dark wavy bands across its wings .", "corn borer larvae will feed on many crop or weed species that have suitable stems or fruit sufficiently large for a boring larva . evidence of corn borer infestation on corn plants appears a few days after first generation egg hatch . early damage is characterized by small pin holes in the leaves and fine sawdust - like frass ( excrement ) scattered over the upper surface of damaged leaves . another typical symptom is a noticeable amount of chewing damage and frass in the whorl of the plant . when larvae enter stalks , they leave visible , small , round holes with wet frass exuding from the holes . stalk feeding can weaken the stalk to the point of breaking . damage to field corn resulting from first generation corn borer larvae is seldom great enough to warrant insecticide application . activity of the second generation larvae , which appear from mid - july through august , is similar to the spring generation with several exceptions . second generation larvae commonly move to the tassel area , causing infested tassels and the upper portion of the plant to break . some larvae also enter the shanks and ears . weakening of shanks often results in dropped ears that cannot be harvested . greatest field corn losses from second generation corn borer appear to occur on either late - planted or late - maturing varieties . field corn planted before may 20 is generally not damaged by the second - generation while corn planted later than may 20 is much more susceptible to damage because these plants are still attractive hosts .", "there are many reports that weather influences european corn borer survival . heavy precipitation during egg hatch , for example , is sometimes given as an important mortality factor . low humidity , low nighttime temperatures , and heavy rain and wind are detrimental to moth survival and oviposition . however , during a 10 - year , 3 - state study , sparks et al . ( 1967 ) reported no consistent relationship between weather and survival .", "second generation - because of the difficulty in readily detecting second generation borers and their damage , concentrate sampling efforts on fields that are late planted and / or actively pollinating during the period of peak egg laying . check with your local extension personnel , as to when it is necessary to start sampling . windshield \" splatter \" of corn borer moths while driving county roads after dusk will alert one to the flight , mating , and egg laying of corn borer moths in an area .", "bt - corn is a type of genetically modified organism , termed gmo . a gmo is a plant or animal that has been genetically modified through the addition of a small amount of genetic material from other organisms through molecular techniques . currently , the gmos on the market today have been given genetic traits to provide protection from pests , tolerance to pesticides , or improve its quality . examples of gmo field crops include bt - potatoes , bt - corn , bt - sweet corn , roundup ready soybeans , roundup ready corn , and liberty link corn .", "native predators and parasites exert some effect on european corn borer populations , but imported parasitoids seem to be more important . among the native predators that affect the eggs and young larvae are the insidious flower bug , orius insidious ( say ) ( hemiptera : anthocoridae ) ; green lacewings , chrysoperla spp . ( neuroptera : chrysopidae ) ; and several ladybird beetles ( coleoptera : coccinellidae ) . insect predators often eliminate 10 to 20 % of corn borer eggs . avian predators such as downy woodpecker , dendrocopos pubescent ( linnaeus ) ; hairy woodpecker , dendrocopos villosus ( linnaeus ) ; and yellow shafted flicker , colaptes auratus ( linnaeus ) have been known to eliminate 20 to 30 % of overwintering larvae .", "with the widespread use of bt corn hybrids , ecb populations have been reduced to very low levels in corn and are more likely to be found in other host crops . only those fields not planted with a bt hybrid are at risk . no - till fields with high residue are susceptible , along with frequent corn crops in the rotation .", "note : ladybugs will consume almost 60 borer eggs a day . stink bugs , damsel bugs , spiders and hover fly larvae feed on young caterpillars .", "in new england , european corn borer and pepper maggot are the most common insect pests of pepper fruit . in many locations , peppers picked at the green stage are only marginally affected by ecb , but those left in the field long enough to ripen fall prey to ecb , then to soft rots . during the 2012 season , the umass ipm team worked with several growers to see if releases of trichogramma could increase their yield of healthy bright red and yellow fruit .", "trichogramma ostriniae are tiny parasitic wasps that seek out and kill the egg masses of the european corn borer ( ecb ) . the use of these wasps in commercial sweet corn fields in massachusetts has resulted in the reduction or elimination of foliar insecticide sprays , saving time , labor , pesticides , and fuel , reducing soil compaction , and maintaining and improving ear quality . the good news is that trichogramma wasps can also be used to control ecb in peppers . trichogramma reduces fruit infestation , resulting in fewer culls and potentially greater success with high - quality , high value , ripe red peppers .", "adult moths are approximately \u00bd inch in length with triangular wings . female moths have yellow - brown wavy markings on their wings while males are slightly smaller and darker in color ( figure 1 ) . european corn borer caterpillars are light tan to pink in color and are approximately 1 inch in length when fully mature . distinguishing characteristics of the caterpillars include dark brown head capsules , dark spots on each body segment , and three pairs of true legs with four pairs of abdominal prolegs ( figure 2 ) .", "the pupal stage of the corn borer is rarely visible . pupae remain inside the host plant , and adults emerge in late spring and in july . the pupae are smooth , light to dark brown in color , and 1 / 3 to 5 / 8 of an inch in length .", "early planted corn is taller and attractive to ovipositing female moths , so late planting has been recommended , but this is useful mostly in areas with only a single generation per year . if a second generation occurs , such late planted corn is heavily damaged .", "cultural practices . destruction of stalks , the overwintering site of larvae , has long been recognized as an important element of corn borer management . disking is not adequate ; plowing to a depth of 20 cm is necessary for destruction of larvae . mowing of stalks close to the soil surface eliminates greater than 75 % of larvae , and is especially effective when combined with plowing . minimum tillage procedures , which leave considerable crop residue on the surface , enhance borer survival .", "sampling for first - brood injury should be initiated when corn is in the whorl stage and early shot - hole foliar injury is evident . sampling should be based on inspection of a series of 20 plant samples from five or more locations in a field . notes should be taken on the proportion of the stand exhibiting whorl injury . the whorls of at least two plants from each sample of 20 plants should be dissected to determine the number of larvae per injured plant and the predominant stage of ecb larvae development . sampling second - brood corn borer is more difficult than first brood , since detection of early larvae on corn in the tassel stage or later is complicated by the size of the corn plant .", "begin scouting first generation larvae once moths have been detected in pheromone traps and corn has reached the six - leaf stage . ( usually late may to early june in central missouri ; seven to ten days earlier in the southeastern counties ) . scout earliest planted corn fields first .", "with the widespread use of bt corn hybrids , ecb populations have been reduced to very low levels in corn and are more likely to be found in other host crops . only those fields not planted with a bt hybrid are at risk . no - till fields with high residue . . .", "insecticides . liquid formulations of insecticide are commonly applied to protect against damage to corn , particularly from the period of early tassel formation until the corn silks are dry . recommendations vary from a single application prior to silking , to weekly applications . liquid applications are usually made to coincide with egg hatch in an effort to prevent infestation . if corn borers are present in a field , however , the critical treatment time is just before the tassels emerge , or at tassel emergence from the whorl . this plant growth period is significant because the larvae are active at this time and more likely to contact insecticide . a popular alternative to liquid insecticides is the use of granular formulations , which can be dropped into the whorl for effective control of first generation larvae because this is where young larvae tend to congregate . insecticide is more persistent when applied in a granular formulation . in grain corn , insecticide applications for suppression of second generation corn borers can be made outside the corn fields in areas of thick grass , or action sites , where adults tend to aggregate . this approach has not been assessed for sweet corn . for borer suppression on potato , a single application of insecticide timed to coinide with the presence of first instar larvae provides optimal yield .", "yield losses due to corn borer can be attributed to a combination of stalk injury by first - or second - brood larvae , ear drop due to second - brood injury to shanks and ears , and enhancement of stalk rot due to microbial infection of injured stalks . in general , if one larva tunnels and completes its development per stalk , the assumption is that a 5 % yield reduction may be expected . the severity of ear drop and stalk breakage depends on the incidence and location of borer cavities and environmental conditions favoring plant infections by microbial agents .", "leaf feeding typically does not cause serious injury to corn . however , tunneling into stalks and ear shanks ( figure 4 ) can result in significant yield losses . tunnels can result in stalk breakage and reduce water and nutrient transport by corn plants . furthermore , tunnel entrances can permit secondary infections of mycotoxin - producing fungi .", "the european corn borer ( ecb ) typically overwinter as fully grown larvae lodged in the stem or cob of the host plant , though they can also be found in other host plants such as large - stemmed grasses and various vegetables . pupation occurs in early spring and adults emerge in early june to july . larvae initially feed on the leaves and work their way to the whorl of the plant . pinholes or shot holes are signs of borers already moving into the plant . depending on the strain of ecb , growing conditions and the growing region , populations can go through one or two full generations and , in some cases , a partial third generation in a single season .", "hutchinson , w . d . , e . c . burkness , p . d . mitchell , r . d . moon , t , w leslie , s . j . fleischer , m . abrhahamson , k . l . hamilton , k . l . steffey , m . e . gray , r . l . hellmich , l . v . kaster , t . e . hunt , r . j . wright , k . pecinosvsky , t . l . rabaey , b . r . flood , and e . s . raun . 2010 . areawide suppression of european corn borer with bt maize reaps savings to non -

brown with irregular darker bands running in wavy lines across their wings ; male moths are distinctly darker and usually smaller . mating takes place in early june ( first generation ) and in late july and early august ( second generation ) in dense grassy areas around corn fields . female moths generally lay their eggs on the underside of corn leaves ( often along the leaf midrib ) , leaf sheaths , and / or ears , depending on the generation , in masses of 15 to 30 eggs overlapping like scales of a fish . tall , lush , early planted corn is the preferred oviposition site for the first generation moths ; whereas second generation moths target actively pollinating corn , which is usually planted late . after 5 to 6 days , the eggs develop what appears to be black spots , which are actually the head capsules of young borer larvae . once the black head is visible , hatching is imminent .", "check plants for egg masses and signs of borer feeding . examine closely the lower surface of leaves and at the ear . when an egg mass is found , record the hatching stage according to following : white , cream , black head , hatched .", "second generation borer attack may result in stalk or tassel breakage and / or boring into the ear shanks , which may cause ears to drop off . larvae may bore into the ears where they feed on the kernels and cob , resulting in yield losses , as well as avenues for attack from secondary insects and pathogens ( e . g . , ear rots ) . no matter where they may attack the plant , second generation borer damage can result in grain losses , harvesting problems , and poor grain quality .", "the bt delta endotoxin was selected because it is highly effective at controlling lepidoptera larvae , caterpillars . it is during the larval stage when most of the damage by european corn borer occurs . the protein is very selective , generally not harming insects in other orders ( such as beetles , flies , bees and wasps ) . for this reason , gmos that have the bt gene are compatible with biological control programs because they harm insect predators and parasitoids much less than broad - spectrum insecticides . the bt endotoxin is considered safe for humans , other mammals , fish , birds , and the environment because of its selectivity . bt has been available as a commercial microbial insecticide since the 1960s and is sold under many trade names . these products have an excellent safety record and can be used on many crops until the day of harvest .", "fifteen to 35 white eggs are laid in masses on the underside of corn leaves , often near the midrib . the individual eggs overlap each other much like fish scales . prior to hatching , the mass darkens .", "first generation borers are usually present during june in the whorl of corn plants . as the larvae feed and grow , some may be found tunneled into the midrib of leaves . this damage can cause leaves to break at the point of borer entry . as the borers feed on the leaves , they typically produce a characteristic random or \" shot hole \" damage pattern . these holes become apparent as the leaves grow out of the whorl . by the time the first generation borers are half grown , they will have moved down the stalk and bored into it , leaving behind their sawdust - like excrement called frass at the stalk entry hole . the boring damage may weaken the plant enough to cause subsequent stalk breakage later in the season , typically occurring below the ear . or it may cause corn to become stunted , resulting in yield reductions caused by the inability of the plant to transport water and nutrients through its damaged stalk . after boring into the stalk , the larvae usually feed inside the plant until they reach maturity and pupate . stalk entry and tunneling by corn borer may predispose the plant to pathogens which may lead to stalk rots later in the season . they emerge as adults during july and early august beginning the second generation .", "the number of generations varies from one to four , with only one generation occurring in northern new england and minnesota and in northern areas of canada , whereas three to four generations occur in virginia and other southern locations . in many areas generation number varies depending on weather , and there is considerable adaptation for local climate conditions even within strains . european corn borer overwinters in the larval stage , with pupation and emergence of adults in early spring . diapause apparently is induced by exposure of last instar larvae to long days , but there also is a genetic component . moth flights and oviposition usually occur during june - july and august - september in areas with one to two generations annually . in southern locations with three generations , moth flights and oviposition typically occur in may , late june , and august . in locations with four generations , adults are active in april , june , july , and august - september .", "the larvae are dirty white , often having a pinkish tinge . the skin is smooth and free of hairs . there are numerous dark spots scattered over the sides and top of the body . the head is dark brown to black . it is the larval ( borer ) stage that causes damage to crops .", "larvae of the first brood pupate in the stalks and emerge again as adult moths in late july and early august . these adults prefer to deposit their eggs on late - planted corn . the larvae hatching from this generation are referred to as the second brood ; they will overwinter as late - instar larvae in corn stubble . larvae will feed on the surface of the leaves before tunneling into the corn stalk where the predominant feeding occurs ( fig . 3 ) . injury caused by the second brood includes stalk breakage , ear drop due to infestation of shanks , and infestations of the ear ( fig . 4 ) . larvae of the second brood are also susceptible to adverse weather , predators , and parasites . the overwintering larvae are very susceptible to insect , avian , and mammalian predators that become active during the late fall , winter , or early spring .", "example : a field that is shedding pollen has 60 % of the plants infested with larvae and / or egg masses . the number of actual larvae observed averages 2 per plant . the number of egg masses averages 1 / 4 per plant . for 1 / 4 egg mass / plant , an average of 1 borer would survive per plant ( assuming survival of 4 borers / egg mass ) . therefore , two live borers plus one borer from egg masses equals 3 borers / plant . anticipated yield is 150 bu / a and the crop is valued at $ 2 . 75 per bushel . the cost of the insecticide and application is $ 12 . 00 and 65 % control can be expected . would it pay to apply the insecticide ?", "assessment of second - brood injury in early september with an emphasis on evaluation of stalk quality and ear shank infestation ( fig . 5 ) will provide relevant information on the need for scheduling timely harvest of corn stands that may be susceptible to significant ear drop or stalk breakage if harvest is delayed .", "during late july and early august adults mate in grassy areas ( e . g . , roadsides , waterways , weed patches , etc . ) . egg masses , which will produce second generation borers , are laid in corn during late july and throughout august . newly hatched larvae typically move from the leaves to protected areas of the leaf axils and sheaths to feed on pollen and plant tissue . second generation borers normally concentrate their attack in the ear zone , roughly the middle third of the plant . after undergoing several molts , the larvae bore into the corn plant as did the first generation borers .", "ecb overwinters as late instar or stage larvae in corn stalks . in the early spring , the overwintering larvae pupate and then emerge as moths that prefer to deposit their egg masses on the underside of leaves of mid - whorl stage corn . each egg mass appears like a small mass of fish scales and may include 15 to 20 eggs ( fig . 1 ) . the eggs hatch into early - instars that initially feed on foliage , causing window - pane injury , and on the tender central whorl , which subsequently leads to shot - hole injury in the emerging foliage ( fig . 2 ) . as the larvae become third - and fourth - instars ( about 1 / 2 - inch long ) , they tunnel into the mid - ribs and stalks . there they complete their larval development as fifth - instars and transform into pupae from which adult moths will emerge in midsummer . this larval generation , which occurs in the spring on whorl - stage corn , is called the first brood . during the period of larval development , significant proportions of larvae perish due to natural elements such as heavy rains or predation by beneficial insect predators . although 15 to 20 larvae may emerge from a single egg mass , it is rare to find one or more mature larvae in a corn stalk or adjacent stalks to which larvae may have migrated .", "fully grown larvae pass the winter concealed in corn stubble or other plant parts on which they have been feeding . pupation takes place in late spring with the adult moths appearing in may and june . when mature , the females begin laying clumps of white eggs on the undersides of the lower leaves of host plants . ( adult females may lay up to 500 eggs over their short lifetime . ) under ideal conditions , these first generation eggs hatch within 3 - 7 days . tiny caterpillars begin feeding on host plants and complete their development in 3 - 4 weeks . pupation occurs deep inside the corn stalks and second generation moths emerge and begin laying eggs in early summer . produces 1 - 3 generations per year depending upon the climate .", "larvae : pinkish tan body , boring into corn , and leaves . adults : small , tan , night fliers about 1 / 2 inch in length that hold their wings in a delta shape at rest . females have a thick body and light colored wings , whereas the males have darker tan - to - brown wings and a thinner body . click here for an identification key .", "burkness , e . c . , w . d . hutchinson , p . c . bolin , d . r . bartels , d . f . warnock , and d . w . davis . 2001 . field efficacy of sweet corn hybrids expressing a bacillus thuringiensis toxin for management of ostrinia nubilalis ( lepidoptera : crambidae ) and helicoverpa zea ( lepidoptera : noctuidae ) . journal of economic entomology 94 : 197 - 203 .", "life table studies conducted on corn borer populations in quebec with a single annual generation perhaps provide insight into the relative importance of mortality factors ( hudon and leroux 1986c ) . these workers demonstrated that egg mortality ( about 15 % ) was low , stable and due mostly to predators and parasites . similarly , mortality of young larvae , due principally to dispersal , dislodgement , and plant resistance to feeding was fairly low ( about 15 % ) but more variable . mortality of large larvae during the autumn ( about 22 % ) and following spring ( about 42 % ) was due to a number of factors including frost , disease and parasitoids , but parasitism levels were low . pupal mortality ( about 10 % ) was low and stable among generations . the factor that best accounted for population trends was survival of adults . dispersal of moths and disruption of moth emergence by heavy rainfall are thought to account for high and variable mortality ( 68 to 98 % , with a mean of 95 % ) , which largely determines population size of the subsequent generation . overall generation mortality levels were high , averaging 98 . 7 % .", "first brood rescue treatment may be needed when 75 % or more of stand is infested and larvae are susceptible to treatment , that is , they have not tunneled into the stalk . second brood rescue treatment is warranted when egg masses or early larvae are found on 50 % or more of plants . abundant activity of ecb adults along field edges indicates a need for inspection for egg masses or early larvae in corn . however , in a year of heavy second - brood activity , the problem may be forecasted by observation of an abundant summer flight of adults .", "do bt - corn hybrids differ only in that they possess the genetic code to produce the bt protein ? not exactly . to add a trait to a crop plant , the gene must be inserted along with some additional genetic material . this additional genetic material includes a promoter sequence that , in part , determines how the new trait is expressed in the plant . for example , the promoter may cause to protein to be expressed in certain parts of the plants or only during a particular period of time . there is a marker gene that allows plant breeders to easily determine which plants have been transformed . herbicide and antibiotic tolerance promoters are commonly used to identify transformed plants . there may also be a plasmid or vector sequence that allows for rapid multiplication of the gene of interest in a bacterial host prior to insertion in the crop plant ."]}

word i caught a klamath basin redband on my dropper . after this the fish seemed to be aware of my presence so i moved little ways upstream to another small pool where i got another bull trout and redband . above this spot the vegetation formed an impassible barrier so i made my way back to the trail . since i had caught the fish that i came for and the sun was begining to fall i decided to forgo anymore fishing and hiked back out to the trailhead where we had setup camp . this was without a doubt the hardest stream that i have ever fished , but with the bull trout and redbands that i caught it was well worth the effort .", "redband trout conservation and restoration is necessary to ensure the long - term persistence of self - sustaining populations across the species\u2019 native range . maintenance of multiple inter - connected populations of redband trout across the diverse habitats of their native range and preservation of the diversity of their life history strategies ( fluvial and adfluvial forms ) will be important . conserving and restoring healthy populations of non - anadromous redband trout may also be critical to the persistence or restoration of some steelhead stocks . although the relationship between the two forms is not well understood there is evidence that some progeny of non - anadromous forms migrate to sea and some progeny of steelhead remain in freshwater . steelhead confined above barriers adopt a non - anadromous life history appropriate to the habitats available . it has been reported that steelhead progeny in very cold streams can residualize and adopt a non - anadromous life history and that these fish retained the ability to produce anadromous offspring . if sympatric redband trout have the potential to rebuild steelhead populations , that has application for the recovery of unique populations of steelhead eliminated by human - caused barriers .", "since 2007 , the western native trout initiative has contributed over $ 648 , 887 to 16 projects benefiting redband trout , including catalyzing and leading the effort to complete the first - ever range - wide assessment and status review mentioned above . other funded projects have been diverse \u2013everything from genetic analysis , telemetry surveys , culvert renovation , levee removal , road relocation , fish ladders , fish screens , streambank stabilization , and large watershed improvement projects .", "three life history patterns have been identified for redband trout ( excluding the anadromous form known as steelhead ) : ( 1 ) stream resident , ( 2 ) fluvial ( migrate between larger and smaller streams ) , and ( 3 ) lake resident adfluvial ( migrate between the lake and stream system ) . stream resident ( fluvial ) populations of redband trout spend their entire life cycles in flowing waters and spawn in the headwaters of the streams they inhabit . the abilities of individuals to express all these life histories is often tied to climatic cycles , with fluvial life histories expressed during wet cycles and reversing to resident life history during dry cycles . spawning is often in the spring ( march to june ) , though they may reproduce at most any time of the year except summer . in the fall , redband migrate to over - wintering areas within their streams . they eat mainly streamside and benthic ( bottom dwelling ) macroinvertebrates in smaller stream habitat but also consume other fish when they occupy larger streams , rivers or lakes . adfluvial populations consist of trout that spend most of their life cycles in lakes and reservoirs , before returning to stream headwaters and tributaries within their native basin to spawn . when lacustrine habitats such as lakes and marshes are available and migratory corridors connect it with surrounding streams , adfluvial populations of redband trout flourish . this adfluvial form is much larger and more fecund than the fluvial form . adfluvial juveniles typically migrate downstream after one to three years to mature in lakes .", "while i had failed to catch any redbands at this creek , i don ' t like going on these trips with out backup plans for streams that treat me like this . this trip was no execption so it was on to my second choice chewaucan basin stream , which ended up being much more productive than the first one . in fact i was rewarded with a chewaucan basin redband on my dry fly on the first cast . the fishing at this stream was amazing and every likely spot seemed to hold a fish with some going 12 \" to 15 \" . the water temperature at this stream was also some of the warmest that i have ever seen trout in , a testament to the adaptations of these fish to the extreme climate of the high desert of oregon .", "six states , four federal agencies , five tribal governments and one non - governmental organization signed a rangewide conservation agreement for interior redband trout in july 2014 , agreeing to work together to conserve and protect habitat for this unique trout . the conservation agreement for interior redband trout is an example of the power of a partnership among state and federal fish and wildlife agencies and tribal nations that has been ongoing since 2009 . western native trout initiative is proud to have been involved in the partnership , convening 13 workshops to complete a comprehensive status review for redband trout in partnership with the state fisheries agencies of california , idaho , montana , nevada , oregon , washington , u . s . fish and wildlife service , u . s . forest service , bureau of land management and 11 tribal nations , as well as representatives from private companies . the project was funded through a grant from the national fish habitat action

hiked both upstream and downstream about a 1 / 2 mile and found some decent looking water downstream , but the best spot i had found was the culvert pool were the road crossed the creek . by 8 : 00am it had warmed up enough for my liking , so i righted up my 4wt with a size 12 royal pmx and size 18 black copper john dropper . the first spot that i tried was the culvert pool , which seemed to be packed with fish and it only took me a couple of minutes to catch my first fort rock basin redband .", "frustrated with the cramped conditions , i decided to continue my search for some better water . about another 1 / 2 mile upstream i found a spot with a decent pool where i would have enough room to set the hook if need be . i rose a fish as soon as my royal pmx hit the water , but didn ' t get a good hook set . after a couple more tries i finally got a solid hook up , although it wasn ' t a redband like i was expecting , but instead was a stream resident bull trout ! my research had indicated that bull trout were also present in this creek , but with all of my failed attempts to catch this elusive fish in washington i never expected that i would actually catch any .", "the fishing in this creek was ridiculous , and every pool would hold several fish that grabbed my fly as soon as it hit the water . on my way back upstream i stopped at a small pool where i caught my biggest trout on the creek , a nice deeply colored about 10 inch buck . as we were heading out of the refuge we saw a good number of pronghorn antelope amidst some beautiful scenery . with the catlow valley redband being caught and photographed , we called it a wrap and made the long drive home .", "as soon as the royal pmx hit the water a fish attacked it , but unfortunately it managed to shake the hook . on the next cast though another fish grabbed my fly and i got a solid hook up and i caught my first catlow valley redband , which was followed by a number of other ones .", "with the first variety of redband sucessfully caught my dad and i decided that we might as well hit the road again for the next spot , which a small stream draining to summer lake in the chewaucan basin . the research that i had done prior to heading out on the trip showed that this stream had never been stocked with hatchery trout , so it should have the purest population of chewaucan redbands . we drove up to summer lake rim and the headwaters of the creek , but it was much smaller than i had anticipated at only a foot wide and a few inches deep in most places . i decided that i would spend about an hour fishing the creek , so i headed downstream to search for some type of holding water . there was evidence of beaver activity along the creek , but it all appeared to be at least five or ten years old and all of the ponds had long since was out . after a 1 / 2 mile of fishing a hiking and still no sign of fish , i pulled the plug on it and headed back to the car .", "i had originally planned on fishing two more streams that these redbands are native to in order to get a better sampling of the diversity found among the different isolated populations . the only problem with this idea was the the poor signage and maze of forest service and logging roads that made the other streams impossible to find . we ended up wasting the next couple of hours on a wild goose chase looking for a couple of streams that we never found . at this point we were pretty worn out and my dad suggested that we should head over to reno for the night . this idea sounded great as it would give me a shot a some lahontan cutthroat and put me another step closer to completing the heritage trout challenge . just getting to reno in the first place ended up being no small task though , and we ended up wasting two hours waiting for pilot cars at worthless road work projects . as we got closer to reno we noticed an odd cloud over the area which ended up being smoke from a forest fire in the south lake tahoe area and ruled out my plans of going after any lahontan cutthroat on this trip . skipping the fishing ended up making the stay in reno a bit more relaxing though , as it gave us a chance to take in the town and get a good nights sleep .", "both my dad and i got rigged up to fish here and at the advice of a california fish and wildlife biologist we started out in the pocket water section , which was supposed to hold more fish than the meadow water . my dad hooked a fish almost right away on his dry , but lost it after a few seconds . the next fish that he hooked stayed on the line and he got the first goose lake redband of the trip .", "we got up at about 7 : 00am and i went out to scout the creek out with my fly rod . this stream appeared to be about the size of the one above summer lake that i couldn ' t find any trout in and flowed through a meadow interspersed with a few groves of aspens here and there . i decide to head downstream to where a small tributary added its flow to the creek and found a decent pool with some fish in it .", "i fished the pool for another 45 minutes or so , and caught a few more trout before the fish seemed to stop feeding . at this point i headed for some of the spots that i noticed earlier in the moring when i scouted the creek , but after spending an hour of bush wacking and fishing i had only gotten one more small fish . the only thing to do was head back to the culvert pool , where i caught a couple more fish and even had two on at the same time for a couple of seconds .", "we arrived at the first stream at around 11 : 00am and on my third or fouth cast i caught my first redband . the fishing didn ' t slow down either and just seemed to improve as i worked my way upstream . i was evident that the population of fish here was healthy and they didn ' t seem to even think twice before grabbing my fly . after covering about a quarter mile of the stream and catching plenty of redbands , i headed back to the car and handed my fly rod off to my dad who also caught several fish . once we had caught our fair share of fish , we hit the road again to try to find some more redbands in another nearby stream .", "the next stop on the list was a small stream in the klamath basin that all of my research had indicated held a good population of redbands . it was evident as soon as we arrived at this stream that i was going to be in for some \" fun \" fishing as the creek flowed though an absolute tunnel of vegetation . i decided that i would hike upstream to see if i could find any beaver ponds or meadow stretches were the creek might open up a bit but after hiking about a mile i had no such luck . i decided to make the best of the situation a scrambled through the bushes down to the creek . when i got down to the creek , there wasn ' t even enough room to stand up straight let alone make a cast . this was small stream fishing in the extreme and the only way to get my fly to where it needed to be was doing some tap and dap fishing or using a sling shot cast . even with the less than ideal conditions i managed to get a fish to grab my fly , the only problem was that there wasn ' t enough room to raise the rod tip to set the hook so i lost it .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "search usfws threatened & endangered species system ( tess ) ( for listing rules , critical habitat ,

nice change .", "our first stop for the trip was hosmer lake , a high mountain lake that is stocked with atlantic salmon and located about an hour southwest of bend . the lake was beautiful , but the weather was cold and windy and the fish did appear to be too interested in feeding . i did a circle around the part of the lake near the boat launch in my float tube , using nymphs , dries and streamers . i even tried some of my standby attractor patterns for resident coho salmon in the puget sound , but only had a couple of hits . with the fishing being slow and the weather going down hill fast , my dad and i decided that it would be best just to head over to the next spot instead of hanging around at hosmer for the night .", "we got off to a slow start in order to get a little enjoyment out of the swimming pool at our hotel in reno . once on the road we ran into three more road work projects on us 395 on our way to goose lake and lost about another hour because of them . when we got to goose lake we headed up a forest service road leading to the stream that i wanted to fish . once again finding the stream proved difficult , but after getting turned around a couple of times we finally made our way to the creek . the creek was beautiful and flowed from meandering meadows into high gradient pocket water sections .", "it soon became evident that the fish in this

gold mines and to the tiny stream which was located in a meadow at about 7 , 000 feet above sea level . this spot was completely infested with mosquitoes and i made quick work of catching the warner

sized carnivorous marsupial with thick , soft fur that is fawn , brown or black and covered in small white spots , except on the tail ( 3 ) ( 4 ) ( 5 ) . the tail is long and bushy , and sometimes has a white tip ( 4 ) ( 5 ) .", "bronwyn concluded that unfavourable weather conditions in the early 2000s contributed to the initial dramatic decline of the eastern quoll across tasmania , and that their numbers have fallen below a critical threshold . thus , faced with ongoing predation pressure , particularly of juvenile quolls by feral cats , their numbers on mainland tasmania are too small to recover without assistance .", "the quoll has ridges on the bottom of its feet to help it climb . it is unable to use its long tail to grip onto branches as monkeys do .", "quolls have a naturally short life span . smaller species live only for around 2 years and larger species , like the spotted tailed quoll , 4 \u2013 5 years .", "mt rothwell sanctuary is a 45 minute car trip west of melbourne . it has been designed as a \" feral - proof enclosure \" , keeping predator species such as foxes , cats and dogs away from the endangered species that live within its boundaries . the sanctuary ' s first eastern quoll breeding season was in 2002 and 50 young were produced .", "eastern quolls are set to be released on the australian mainland , 50 years after they were wiped out by a combination of habitat loss and the spread of foxes and feral cats .", "this species occurs in two distinct colour morphs , the first being fawn with whitish underparts , and the second being black with brownish underparts ( 3 ) . the fawn morph of the eastern quoll is more common , but both can occur in the same litter . both morphs possess the distinctive white spots ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 5 ) .", "bronwyn\u2019s research investigated the impacts of climate , the decline in devil numbers , disease ( toxoplasmosis ) and feral cats on the numbers of quolls at several sites across the state . her research provided much insight into the ecology and behaviour of the eastern quoll and the interactions between devils , quolls and feral cats . it is indeed a very complex story .", "the second largest of australia\u2019s quoll species , the western quoll ( or chuditch ) now occurs naturally only in south - western australia . it was once found across most of the australian mainland , but like other quolls , it declined rapidly following european settlement , mostly due to predation by foxes and cats but with contributions from many other factors .", "captive breeding colonies of eastern quoll exist on the mainland and are comprised of animals imported from tasmania . these populations are used for display purposes and are valuable \u201cinsurance colonies\u201d , in case of declines in the wild populations of tasmanian eastern quolls . the mainland captive population was created from only a few animals and as there has been very little input from non - related animals we fear the genetic diversity of the population is extremely low . this inbreeding is likely to limit the long - term viability of the mainland captive populations and hence reduce their value .", "eastern quolls prefer areas with low rainfall and cold winters . but an 18 - month period of warm winters and higher seasonal rainfall during 2002 - 03 resulted in most of tasmania becoming unsuitable for eastern quolls . this rapidly drove their numbers down . in fact , the amount of environmentally suitable habitat in this period was lower than at any other time during the previous 60 years .", "monthly climatic data were obtained at a 0 . 05\u00b0 grid scale ( ~ 5 km x 5 km ) for the period 1947 to 2012 from the australian water availability project ( awap ) [ 40 ] . the spatial resolution of these data was approximately double the maximum home range size for the eastern quoll [ 33 ] and therefore was considered appropriate for this species .", "bronwyn warned that as an island population , eastern quolls on bruny island are very vulnerable to unpredictable events , such as climatic changes ( e . g . wetter and warmer conditions ) or disease outbreaks . in addition , if the number of feral cats increased significantly on north bruny their predation on juvenile quolls could reduce the quoll population , particularly if combined with other unfavourable events .", "eastern quolls \u2013 small , fleet - footed and ferocious \u2013 are one of australia\u2019s few surviving marsupial predators . they were once so common in southeast australia that when europeans arrived the quolls were reportedly hyperabundant .", "despite their mainland demise , eastern quolls continued to thrive in tasmania , until recently . in the 10 years to 2009 , their numbers had fallen by more than 50 % with no sign of recovery .", "the eastern quoll is one of 20 mammals that the australian government has prioritised resource allocation to support the species recovery effort . this species is a priority for investment as actions may benefit multiple species and there are strong partnerships with the act government and community groups . priority actions which may support the species include establishment of populations in feral - free enclosures and landscape predator control at reintroduction sites .", "brewster said the release should take place next year . but he said it would be \u201cvery hard\u201d to restore the quoll to its former range unless fox and cat numbers were drastically reduced .", "quolls generally breed during winter . being marsupials , quoll young ( pups ) spend the first part of their lives in a pouch . females have between five and eight pups per litter .", "in addition to the eastern quolls , mt rothwell has had significant success breeding the critically endangered eastern barred bandicoot . it is also home to red - bellied pademelons ( now extinct in the wild on the mainland ) , brush - tailed rock wallabies ( critically endangered in victoria ) , long - nosed potoroos ( vulnerable ) , spotted - tailed quolls ( endangered ) and rufous bettongs ( extinct in victoria ) .", "north bruny , however is an interesting case study \u2013 it is one of the few sites across tasmania where quoll numbers have increased in recent years . with its favourable climate and mosaic of open grasslands , woodlands and agricultural pastures , it offers ideal quoll habitat . an increase in abundance is possibly due to improvements in pasture management that now provide better quality feeding and denning habitat .", "australia\u2019s history is littered with examples where delays and inaction prevented small populations from recovering , with some species now lost forever . the eastern quolls\u2019 fate is not yet sealed . but we have to act now .", "this study aims to use genetic markers to non - invasively and reliably examine the genetic diversity of a small population of captive eastern quolls at pearcedale conservation park ( pcp ) , victoria . techniques used included :", "the quoll is around the size of a small cat . its face is pointed , and its mouth is filled with sharp teeth . it has a moist , pink nose and bright eyes .", "change in ai is calculated as the change in the mean annual number of quoll sightings from 1997\u201399 to 2007\u201309 for each spotlighting region , based on the 150 transects consistently surveyed in each of these two periods [ 7 ] . white circles indicate an increase in ai , black circles indicate a decrease in ai for each region . circle size indicates relative magnitude of absolute increase or decrease in ai , being large circles ( > 6 quoll sightings ) , medium circles ( 3\u20136 sightings ) , and small circles ( < 3 sightings ) . eight regions have been excluded from this analysis , as there were either no eastern quoll detections in the region during the 10 year period ( 7 regions ) , or there was no change in the ai over the 10 year period ( 1 region ) ."]}

[ 4 ] , female r . tanezumi in philrice farms from nueva ecija were found to be infected with a . cantonensis during june to september . this could mean that the transmission of the parasite between its hosts may have happened during these months . in connection to this , snails for the study were collected during other months of the year . furthermore , ecological characteristics of p . canaliculata and m . maculata such as their benthic life cycle may also be accounted for the low prevalence of a . cantonensis infection . according to lv et al . [ 16 ] , only a few species of freshwater snails naturally transmit a . cantonensis because rat feces containing its l1 are diluted in freshwater bodies . previous studies suggest that a . cantonensis infection in terrestrial snails and slugs are higher than freshwater snails [ 19 \u2013 21 ] . in the present study , no a . cantonensis l3 was observed in a . fulica . the reason is unclear ; however , possibilities exist such as effects of seasonal variations and habitat of hosts on the transmission of parasite . based on observations , a . fulica becomes active when it starts to rain . in the study of salibay and luyon [ 22 ] , fewer rats were caught in rainy days . this indicates that there may have been less contact between rats and a . fulica . studies in other countries have shown that a . fulica are naturally infected with the parasite [ 8 , 17 , 19 , 23 \u2013 25 ] . in the philippines , few reports regarding a . cantonensis infection in snails can be found . a . fulica and laevicaulis altae from metro manila were revealed to be infected with a . cantonensis [ 9 , 10 , 26 ] but other than the snail , no other reports have been made . this study , however , is the first record of a . cantonensis infected p . canaliculata and m . maculata in the philippines .", "drug susceptibility : there is no specific treatment for angiostrongyliasis . a cantonensis is susceptible to albendazole and mebendazole , but a systemic response to dying worms may make the condition worse ( 2 , 3 , 7 ) .", "drug susceptibility : there is no specific treatment for angiostrongyliasis . a cantonensis is susceptible to albendazole and mebendazole , but a systemic response to dying worms may make the condition worse ( 2 , 3 , 7 ) .", "asato r , taira k , nakamura m , kudaka j , itokazu k , et al .

28 days . at hatching , the chicks are precocial and able to walk and feed within one day . they fledge between 50 and 75 days after hatching , depending on the species . they are sexually mature at 2 - 3 years .", "the total common eider breeding population in svalbard is estimated to be somewhere between 13 , 500 and 27 , 500 pairs and the late summer population is comprised of 80 , 000\u2013140 , 000 individuals . the european breeding population is estimated to be 840 , 000 pairs , and is regarded as stable , although some sub - populations are declining . extensive collecting of down and eggs are thought to have reduced the population somewhat during the first part of the 20th century , but early numbers are rather uncertain , so this may not be the case . although protection measures and bird sanctuaries were established in 1963 and 1973 , no marked increase in the population has occurred since that time . annual population monitoring established in the kongsfjorden area in 1980 and surveys of moulting birds in 2002 and 2010\u20132011 suggest a stable population in recent decades . human disturbance at nesting sites should be avoided in order to minimize loss of egg and chicks to predators .", "tweet of the day is a series of fascinating stories about the british birds inspired by their calls and songs .", "five stories of birds and birdsong are told by the people inspired by them .", "by continuing to browse this website , you are accepting the use of cookies to offer you services and offers suited to your centers of interest . find out more here", "javascript seems to be disabled in your browser . you must have javascript enabled in your browser to utilize the functionality of this website .", "thanks to urban sport , cities are becoming open -

notch water conditions . diligent attention must be given to their requirements of diet and habitat . the aquarists must also be willing to do frequent water changes and provide appropriate tank mates .", "the lake tanganyikan goby species are rather expensive fish that have rather specific , though uncomplicated needs . they are fine in an aquarium of 30 gallons or more and can be kept in a cichlid community . but their tank needs to have good filtration with highly oxygenated water , and their diet must consist of a variety of quality foods .", "intermediate - these fish must have appropriate tankmates and require attention to diet and tank care .", "the plain goby cichlid is an omnivore . in the wild they pick algae and microorganisms from the rock biocover . in the aquarium they can be fed nutritious live foods , tablets , and some will accept frozen or flake . flakes are often accepted by captive bred fish though captive caught fish are less enthusiastic . a varied died is important however , as a diet consisting of just flakes has been said to contribute to bloat .", "provide a diet of high quality spirulina or vegetables such as blanched chopped peas , broccoli or lettuce . also feed crustaceans , cyclops , brine shrimp , glassworms , or other special foods for lake tanganyika cichlids . on rare occasions you can feed bloodworms , but high protein foods such as shellfish , meat ( especially animal meat ) and other worms should be avoided . all fish benefit from vitamins and supplements added to their foods . feed smaller amounts of 2 to 5 small pinches of food several times a day instead of a large quantity once a day .", "some of diet - avoid high protein foods such as shellfish , animal meat , and worms .", "several feedings per day - generally feed 2 - 3 small feedings a day rather than a single large feeding for better water quality .", "the plain goby cichlid needs diligent maintenance for good water quality . regular partial water changes are very important and removing any uneaten foods will help prevent disease . do water changes of 10 % to 15 % a week , or more frequent changes depending on the nitrite / ammonia levels and stocking numbers .", "the lake tanganyika cichlids cannot handle large water changes very well unless the new water chemistry closely matches the water they are in . if a large water change is needed , changing 15 % every couple of days should bring water back to normal . this inability to tolerate large water changes is due to lake tanganyika being very deep and the water tends to stay stable .", "weekly - water changes of 10 % to 15 % a week are recommended .", "the plain goby cichlids will swim mostly on the bottom and occasionally in the middle areas of the tank . though they are a smaller cichlid they are shy and need a minimum 30 gallon aquarium . a tank that is 4 foot long , 75 gallon or more , is better for long term maintenance and if you wish to keep a cichlid community . they need good water movement along with very strong and efficient filtration . extra aeration is suggested for the aquarium to provide optimal oxygen levels . lake tanganyika is a very oxygen rich lake , and in nature these cichlids occur in the \" surge \" zones near the shore where the water is always high in oxygen .", "with a fine sand substrate , undergravel filtration is very difficult to implement . an external canister filter or hang on tank filter can be used as long as the flow rate is higher than required for your particular tank because of the oxygenation that is required . make sure the intakes are well above the sand and have a protective cover to prevent sand from entering the filter , or the impeller will wear out quickly .", "for lake tanganyika cichlids the water needs to be well buffered and maintained with small , regular water changes . they do fine in either freshwater or brackish freshwater . the surge zone areas of lake tanganyika have a ph of over 9 . this is due to the releases of oxygen at the shore called ' faunal exhaust ' . keep an eye on ph parameters for the goby cichlids . a higher ph means that ammonia is more lethal , so water changes are a must for these fish . in addition keep an eye on total hardness and carbonate hardness . avoid overfeeding and overstocking .", "the best set up is a system of caves that reach almost to the water surface , formed by rocks or flowerpots . though they primarily inhabit the bottom parts of the tank , this provides a higher refuge for the female when the male gets aggressive . laying stones at the bottom and front of the tank for perching and growing the algae the gobies relish is also suggested . positioning the tank near natural sunlight will encourage growing this beneficial algae .", "a sandy substrate is needed as it is thought to aid in the goby cichlid\u2019s digestion . it is helpful to use sand that is designed for marine aquariums which will help keep the ph high . salt is sometimes used as a buffering agent to increase the water ' s carbonate hardness . an alternative buffering approach is to use a chemical filtration method , where the water passes through layers of crushed coral or coral sand .", "although rift lake cichlids need hard alkaline water they are not found in brackish waters . this cichlid has some salt tolerance so can be kept in slightly brackish water conditions . however it not suited to a full brackish water tank . salinity must be less than about 10 % of a normal saltwater tank , a specific gravity of less than 1 . 0002 .", "for freshwater an optional practice is to add 1 heaping teaspoon of salt per 11 gallons of water . this is considered to be a simple and natural remedy for wounds , minor fungal infections and film over the eyes of fish in transit . tanganyika cichlids also need iodine for the thyroid to function properly to regulate growth and development , and which can be achieved by adding iodized table salt to the water . be very careful to not add too much salt as this may cause bloat . using a marine salt ( used for salt water fish ) will add some trace elements .", "30 gal ( 114 l ) -

specific basal metabolic rate of frugivore bats from neotropical lowlands . its thermal conductance value places it at the upper end of the expected range for a regression line of lowland frugivorous bats ( table 1 ) . on the other hand , the range of thermoneutral zone is the smallest of the guild ( table 1 ) , and s . erythromos also shows the lowest lower critical temperature in relation to size ; this value is shared with other much larger species such as artibeus jamaicensis and a . lituratus ( table 1 ) .", "in the tropics , huge nephilid orb - webs ( genera nephila and nephilengys ) sometimes block the entrances to bat caves ( [ 61 ] ; c . dietz , pers . comm . ) . such cave entrance inhabiting nephilid populations have been discovered in east and south east asia as well as in the neotropics . so far it is unknown to what extend cave - roosting bats flying back and forth between caves and foraging areas are able to detect and avoid these webs . since it is hypothesized that the bats might navigate by spatial memory while passing through cave entrances [ 121 ] , it is conceivable that some of them may crash into nephilid webs within the cave\u2019s entrance zone , given the fact that in some areas they leave caves at dusk in gigantic swarms . monitoring nephild webs at cave entrances by means of video recording devices could bring an answer to this question .", "another factor that influences home - range size , in addition to foraging mode , is availability and distribution of food in space and time . small aerial insects , in contrast to , for instance , frogs , which often occur aggregated at spawning pools , are more widely distributed throughout the landscape . thus , bats like m . macrophyllum exploiting this resource should travel longer distances on a nightly basis and have large home ranges . for instance , weinbeer and kalko ( 2004 ) found average home ranges of 46 ha ( range 19\u2013158 ha ) for the insectivorous bat lampronycteris brachyis ( phyllostomidae ) on barro colorado island . similar to m . macrophyllum ( weinbeer et al . , in press ) , this species was characterized by a high flight activity of more than 3 h per night , during which the bats traveled estimated distances of several dozen kilometers ( m . macrophyllum : about 35\u201350 km , l . brachyotis : approximately 60 km ) , paralleling many aerial insectivorous vespertilionids .", "the neotropical orb - weaving spider nephila clavipes has been witnessed catching bats quite frequently ( 9 reports ) , but in none of these cases was it seen biting , wrapping or eating a bat . likewise , birds trapped in the webs of this spider species were apparently not consumed [ 22 ] \u2013 . only once has a neotropical nephila been observed biting a bird , but without subsequent consumption of the prey [ 22 ] . it has been suggested that nephila clavipes might be unable to deal with large , aggressive prey such as bats and birds [ 24 ] , [ 27 ] . if this latter assumption is true , then the captures of bats in the webs of nephila clavipes would be cases of non - predation deaths ( the bats dying of exhaustion , starvation , dehydration , and / or hyperthermia ) . the two european incidences where bats were killed in spider webs without the spiders feeding on them must be considered to have been cases of non - predation deaths as well .", "in recent years , the idea has been proposed that the occasional catch of large , energetically rewarding prey may be essential in order to fulfil the reproductive needs of large orb - weaving spiders ( \u201crare , large prey\u201d hypothesis ; see [ 122 ] \u2013 [ 123 ] ) . while large orb - weavers such as nephila spp . capture predominantly small insects of little energetic value , they derive the bulk of their energy from a few rare , large prey items ( see [ 46 ] , [ 49 ] , [ 53 ] , [ 122 ] ) . in this context \u201crare , large prey\u201d encompasses large insects ( e . g . , cicadas , moths , coleopterans , orthopterans , and odonates ) as well as small flying vertebrates ( bats and birds ) . in our opinion , the examples of bat - eating orb - weavers reported in this paper are consistent with the \" rare , large prey \" hypothesis , though one may object to this given the rarity of such events .", "the ancova analysis ( table 1 ) of data available for 21 tropical bat species and the 3 species in this study indicates that log 10 of basal metabolic rate is significantly correlated with log 10 of body mass ( p = 0 . 0035 , r 2 = 0 . 40 ) and with food habits ( p = 0 . 00002 ) . it is not significantly correlated with maximal elevation range ( p = 0 . 56 ) . although elevation did not show an effect on log 10 of basal metabolic rate , when both elevation and food habits are taken into account , a statistically significant impact on log 10 of metabolic rate was obtained ( p = 0 . 0002 ) . this implies that elevation does not have the same effect as diet on metabolic responses of the various dietary groups examined . our results seem to show that both the nectarivorous a . latidens and the frugivorous s . erythromos increase their basal metabolic rate as a response to elevation , whereas the insectivorous t . brasiliensis shows the opposite response , probably as a consequence of its poor energetic budget .", "the lowest temperature at which a bat maintained its basal metabolic rate ( lower critical temperature ) was determined by finding the intersection between regression lines with best fit to data , calculated by minimal squares method for values inside and below the zone of thermal neutrality ( nickerson et al . 1989 ) . in the case of a . latidens , the method of nickerson et al . ( 1989 ) was not feasible because this species showed different conductances in and below thermal neutrality ; consequently , we define lower critical temperature as the minimal value of ambient temperature in which the range of basal metabolic rate was independent of ambient temperature . an approximation to upper critical temperature was obtained as the inflection point in metabolic rate as ambient temperature increased . differences in metabolic rate as well as in thermal conductance between normothermic and hypothermic bats were tested using 1 - way analysis of variance . analysis of covariance ( ancova ) was used to test the impact of various factors on basal rate of different species of tropical bats for which data were available from the literature . thus , log 10 of basal metabolic rate = f ( log 10 body mass , maximal elevation range , and diet ) .", "movement patterns . \u2014commuting distances between day roost and nearest foraging area ranged from 0 to 4 . 35 km , with no significant difference between the sexes ( males : median = 0 km , iqr = 0 km ; females : 0 . 040 km , iqr = 0\u20133 . 38 km ; z = \u20131 . 60 , p = 0 . 109 ) . except for 2 females ( fl and f4 ) whose single foraging areas were located more than 2 and 4 km away from the day roost , the majority of individuals had their closest foraging area directly adjacent to their day roost . in commuting between day roost and feeding areas or between the latter , tagged individuals typically did not fly the most direct route , which would have led them through forest , but closely followed the shoreline or flew over open water instead . some bats ( m1 , m2 , and f1 ) flew over or crossed only small , forested areas en route to their foraging areas . during commutes along the shoreline , the bats attained a flight speed of approximately 8 . 3 m / s ( 30 km / h ) as estimated based on the speed of our motorboats ( determined by use of a global positioning system unit ) while closely tracking a bat ."]}

ratio distributions in stalk - eyed fly ( cyrtodiopsis ) progeny we found that female - biased sex ratios occur in species exhibiting eye - stalk sexual dimorphism 11 , 12 and female preferences for long eye span 13 , 14 . female - biased sex ratios result from meiotic drive 15 , the preferential transmission of a \u2018selfish\u2019 x - chromosome . artificial selection for 22 generations on male eye - stalk length in sexually dimorphic c . dalmanni produced longer eye - stalks and male - biased progeny sex ratios in replicate lines . because male - biased progeny sex ratios occur when a drive - resistant y chromosome pairs with a driving x chromosome 15 , long eye span is genetically linked to meiotic drive suppression . male eye span therefore signals genetic quality by influencing the reproductive value of offspring 16 .", "when females mate with different males , competition for fertilizations occurs after insemination . such sperm competition is usually summarized at the level of the population or species by the parameter , p 2 , defined as the proportion of offspring sired by the second male in double mating trials . however , considerable variation in p 2 may occur within populations , and such variation limits the utility of population - wide or species p 2 estimates as descriptors of sperm usage . to fully understand the causes and consequences of sperm competition requires estimates of not only mean p 2 , but also intra - specific variation in p 2 . here we investigate within -

dependent expression relative to the homologous trait in females and nonsexual traits . male eyespan also showed a great increase in standardized variance under stress , unlike nonsexual traits . the inflated variance of the male ornament was primarily attributable to condition -

dependent expression and this allows females to evaluate male genetic quality 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 . a number of previous experiments have demonstrated heightened condition - dependence of sexual ornaments in response to environmental stress 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 . here we show that genetic variation underlies the response to environmental stress ( variable food quality ) of a sexual ornament ( male eye span ) in the stalk - eyed fly cyrtodiopsis dalmanni . some male genotypes develop large eye span under all conditions , whereas other genotypes progressively reduce eye span as conditions deteriorate . several non - sexual traits ( female eye span , male and female wing length ) also show genetic variation in condition - dependent expression , but their genetic response is entirely explained by scaling with body size . in contrast , the male sexual ornament still reveals genetic variation in the response to environmental stress after accounting for differences in body size . these results strongly support the hypothesis that female mate choice yields genetic benefits for offspring .", "females of the stalk - eyed fly , cyrtodiopsis dalmanni , mate repeatedly during their lifetime and exhibit mating preference for males with large eye span . how these mating decisions affect female fitness is not fully understood . in this study , we examined the effects of multiple mating and male eye span on short - term reproductive output in this species . experiments that manipulated the number of copulations and partners a female received suggested that obtaining a sufficient sperm supply is an important benefit associated with multiple mating . the average percentage of fertile eggs laid by females increased as a function of mating frequency and ranged from 40 % for females mated once , to 80 % for females mated continuously . in addition , a high proportion of copulations in this species appeared to be unsuccessful . one - third of all females mated once laid less than 10 % fertile eggs . there was no significant difference in reproductive performance between females mated to multiple partners and females mated to a single partner . there was also no indication that females received any short - term reproductive benefits from mating with males with large eye span . in fact , females mated to males with short eye span laid a higher percentage of fertile eggs than females mated to large eye span males .", "the malaysian stalk - eyed fly , teleopsis dalmanni ( formerly known as cyrtodiopsis dalmanni ; [ 32 ] ) , exhibits extreme sexual dimorphism for eyespan resulting from strong intra - and inter - sexual selection on the trait in males ( ibid . ) . females form large harems on root hairs overhanging the eroded banks of streams and males compete to control these harems [ 19 , 33 ] . both sexes are highly promiscuous and mate at high frequencies ( ~ 10 and 6 times per hour in the laboratory , for males and females respectively ; [ 34 , 35 ] ) . there is also some evidence that males strategically allocate more ejaculate to larger , more productive females through the production and delivery of larger spermatophores [ 36 ] . however , t . dalmanni spermatophores are small [ 37 ] and females store few sperm following a single mating ( ~ 140 ; [ 36 ] ) . females are therefore sperm - limited and must copulate repeatedly to attain maximal fertility [ 38 ] . this problem is exacerbated in large , highly fecund females despite being allocated more ejaculate , as they lay a lower proportion of fertilised eggs following a single copulation in comparison with less productive females [ 38 ] . without measures of paternity however , the value of both mate choice and multiple mating can only be inferred indirectly .", "with eyes at the tip of their eye stalk , teleopsis dalmanni and members of diopsinae definitely make into the list of most bizarre - looking animals on earth . this group of flies has sparks research interest in the physiology , development and evolutionary mechanism leading to the eye stalks . t . dalmanni is probably the most widely studied particularly in the field of sexual selection leading to sexual dimorphism in this species , where males and females differ in appearance .", "the fly , c . dalmanni , is highly promiscuous ( wilkinson et al . , 1998 ) thereby creating ample opportunity for intense postcopulatory sexual selection by sperm competition or selection . comparative studies across stalk - eyed flies reveal that sperm length , spermathecal duct length and ventral receptacle size have coevolved between males and females ( presgraves et al . , 1999 ) . the size and shape of female sperm storage organs have the potential to influence which sperm are used for fertilization . thus , correlated evolution between male and female reproductive traits may be due , in part , to selection on sperm size mediated by the size of the female organs . however , correlated evolution between male and female reproductive traits may also be the result of linkage disequilibrium between pre - and postcopulatory traits . among lines selected for long or short male eye span , wilkinson et al . ( 2005 ) found a strong correlation between eye span and ventral receptacle size due , in part , to x - linked effects . eye span is , therefore , partly indicative of both male and female postcopulatory features . consequently , genetic linkage among x - linked genes that influence eye span , sperm length and ventral receptacle size provides a mechanism by which female mate choice can potentially influence male external morphology and sperm length as well as result in coevolution between sperm length and female sperm storage organ size . furthermore , the genetic linkage between eye span and sperm length allows both pre - and postcopulatory sexual selection to act against the transmission bias caused by the sex - ratio chromosome .", "lay on average 4 - 6 eggs per day and may continue laying eggs for many months . the eggs require 1 - 3 days to hatch . larvae stage range from 10 days to several weeks , depending on temperature of environment and food quality . late - instar larvae empty their gut content in a process called gut - purge , and enter pupation state . in food - depriving environment , pupation might occur at smaller larvae size . they typically pupate on emergent vegetation . pupation stage last for almost a week , after which an adult fly will emerge , completing the life cycle of", "as yet , there has been no effort to identify within - population quantitative variation in p 2 in stalk - eyed flies . in this paper we investigated intra - specific , within population variation of p 2 in t . dalmanni using controlled mating experiments and microsatellite profiling of progeny . we standardized male mating history , diet and body size in order to limit variation in male reproductive organ size , as we have shown that testes and accessory glands are reduced by mating [ 41 ] and scale positively with diet quality and body size [ rogers et al . in prep ; cotton & pomiankowski unpublished ] . we also chose sires with similar eyespan to each other to limit the potential effects on p 2 of female mate choice based on male ornament size [ 25 , 27 , 28 ] . we show that even in the absence of these factors there is significant variation in sperm precedence in t . dalmanni , with familial p 2 values ranging from zero to one . we discuss the likely causes of this variation .", "we know that sperm precedence in c . dalmanni is highly variable and exhibits a trimodal distribution ( corley et al . , 2006 ) . furthermore , when females are double - mated to st and sr males , st males are twice as likely to fertilize offspring ( wilkinson et al . , 2006 ) . the greater sperm length of st males may facilitate fertilization success . in other insect species , longer sperm do not necessarily have a fertilization advantage over shorter sperm ( e . g . , gage and morrow , 2003 ) , but can in species where females mediate fertilization through organs like sperm receptacles ( reviewed in snook , 2005 ) . we do not know the exact mechanisms of sperm competition in c . dalmanni ; there may be a trade - off between producing many small or few long sperm , although very few sperm per ejaculate succeed in getting stored in female spermathecae ( approximately 35 in cyrtodiopsis whitei ; fry and wilkinson , 2004 ) . male and female postcopulatory traits have coevolved across stalk - eyed fly taxa ( presgraves et al . , 1999 ) and are the fastest evolving traits measured among populations within c . dalmanni ( eg amitin and gs wilkinson , unpublished data ) , which are patterns consistent with sperm competition mediated by ventral receptacles . double - mating experiments using flies that differ only in sperm length , but not presence of drive , are needed to determine how sperm length influences sperm competitive ability . by simultaneously allowing males to differ in eye span it may be possible to determine whether pre - and postcopulatory selection operates in concert or independently on male pre - and postcopulatory sexually selected traits .", "templeton ( 26 ) proposed that sexual selection is not important in speciation in the hawaiian drosophila because mate choice is stabilizing within species . the sexually selected trait that we examined is not important in behavioral isolation , but the reason is not consistent with templeton\u2019s proposal because we found directional sexual selection through female mate choice . our detection of directional selection is not due to sampling a smaller size range than templeton did because the range of head widths in our study was 2 . 4\u20133 . 1 mm , nearly the same as the range studied by templeton ( 17 , 26 ) . statistical analyses of selection are essentially correlational ( 25 , 29 ) , and the cause of selection needs to be confirmed with an experimental approach , such as increasing the male eye span through artificial selection ( 30 ) . female preferences for broad heads in distantly related stalk - eyed flies ( diopsidae ) also appear to be directional ; females preferred to perch near males with heads that had been widened experimentally well beyond the natural range of the species ( 31 ) ."]}

[ 77 ] an illustration made for the 1648 published version of this journal , showing the killing of dodos , a dugong , and possibly a mascarene grey parakeet , was captioned with a dutch poem , [ 78 ] here in hugh strickland ' s 1848 translation :", "in spite of the mention of several colours , authors such as walter rothschild claimed that the gelderland journal described the bird as entirely blue - grey , and it was restored this way in rothschild ' s 1907 book extinct birds . later examination of the journal by julian hume has revealed only a description of the dodo . he suggested that the distinctively drawn facial mask may represent a separate colour . the head was evidently blue , and in 2007 , hume suggested the beak may have been red , and the rest of the plumage greyish or blackish , which also occurs in other members of psittaculini .", "the mascarene islands of r\u00e9union , mauritius , and rodrigues are situated in a line along a submerged ridge , the seychelles - mauritius plateau , located 640 to 800 km east of madagascar in the western indian ocean . these islands are unique in their isolation , speciation processes and assemblages , and possess many endemic species . when these islands were first visited in the 16th century , passing ships hunted the native fauna , causing the extinction of the ground dwelling dodo and the related rodriguez solitaire . the ships also introduced european species such as rabbits and goats . later , people permanently settled these islands . the combination of hunting , species introductions , deforestation and farming has dramatically changed the habitats of these islands and caused the extinction of species on these islands . many of the surviving endemic mascarene species are seriously threatened with extinction .", "while the mascarenes still support many endemic species , they are as well known for the large number of species that have become extinct since 1600 . these extinctions include the dodo ( raphus cucullatus ) of mauritius , rodrigues solitaire ( pezophaps solitaria ) , rodgrigues parakeet ( psittacula excul ) , mascarene parrot ( mascarinus mascarinus ) , r\u00e9union starling ( fregilupus varius ) , and the mauritius blue - pigeon ( alectroenas nitidissima ) ( stattersfield et al . 1998 ) . there have also been a number of extinctions of endemic plants , possibly totaling as many as 100 species ( wwf and iucn 1994 ) . the remaining 500 - 600 endemic plant species are threatened from the considerable loss of habitat and invasion by more vigorous introduced species . some of these are reduced to handfuls of individuals , or even a single remaining plant . examples of plant species on the verge of extinction include : drypetes caustica , tetrataxis salicifolia , and xanthophyllum paniculatun .", "unsurprisingly , such wanton slaughter soon turned beguiling plenty into vanishing rarity . even by the standards of a europe that burned , beheaded and hanged tens of thousands of its own as witches during this period , the treatment of mascarene tortoises was seen as reckless by officialdom . as early as 1639 , legislation was put in place on mauritius to protect its tortoises . sadly this proved ineffective and it would not be until 1771 that the remaining tortoises would receive meaningful protection .", "however , the broad - billed parrot was in all likelihood flightless and thus it seems that the above - mentioned reports are more consistent with mascarinus mascarinus . hoffman states that the birds flew only \" with difficulty \" , though , whereas the wing bones of the mascarene parrot does not suggest a reduction in flying ability . the sternum of the bird is only insufficiently known and thus it may be that the species flew badly . this , on the other hand , is in disagreement with the theory that the same taxon occurred on both islands , although hoffman may have referred to a general unwillingness to fly until pressed , which was common for the unwary birds of the mascarenes . most strongly against the former existence of this species on mauritius , however , weighs the fact that no skeletal material has turned up in the extensive collections of subfossil bones recovered to date ; the fossil record of mauritius is the most complete of the mascarene islands .", "description location and general description this ecoregion covers the three main islands , r\u00e9union , mauritius , and rodrigues , and a number of smaller islets of the mascarene islands . the largest islands are the french dependent territory of r\u00e9union ( 2 , 500 km2 ) , and the island of mauritius ( 1 , 900 km2 ) , which together with rodrigues ( 110 km2 ) forms the single independent nation of mauritius . the nearest landmass is madagascar , 680 km northwest of r\u00e9union .", "french and dutch settlers arriving on r\u00e9union and rodrigues in the seventeenth century found great herds of native tortoises . one early arrival on rodrigues described whole fields covered in the creatures ! unfortunately for all five mascarene giant tortoise species , their large size combined with apparent tameness and slow movement to render them ridiculously easy prey . before refrigeration , islands served as gigantic larders for malnourished and hungry sailors . faced with abundance , humans responded as they so often have : with rampant plunder .", "mourer - chauvire , c . ;

[ 2 ] illustrations and written accounts of encounters with the dodo between its discovery and its extinction ( 1598\u20131662 ) are the primary evidence for its external appearance . [ 35 ] according to most representations , the dodo had greyish or brownish plumage , with lighterprimary feathers and a tuft of curly light feathers high on its rear end . the head was grey and naked , the beak green , black and yellow , and the legs were stout and yellowish , with black claws . [ 36 ] the bird was sexually dimorphic : males were larger and had proportionally longer beaks . the beak was up to 23 centimetres ( 9 . 1 in ) in length and had a hooked point . [ 37 ]", "the pattern of changes that we observed in the rep gene suggests that there was a major selective sweep of bfdv mutations that coincided with the outbreak of pbfd in the echo parakeet . the speed and extent of this sweep is such that the rep allele occurring prior to the outbreak appears to be completely absent in the season immediately afterward . a number of factors may have contributed to the scope and rapidity of the sweep , including the environmental stability of circoviruses ( 62 ) , both vertical and horizontal modes of transmission ( 18 , 48 , 63 ) , and host population dynamics ( infection in a small population of a highly gregarious species ) .", "\u201cmindoro racket - tail\u201d , prioniturus mindorensis , has been split from blue - crowned racket - tail , prioniturus discurus , based on schweitzer et al . ( 2012 ) . kundu et al . ( 2012 ) found that the mascarene parrot is part of the vasa parrot clade . as mascarinus has priority , coracopsis is merged into mascarinus . also , the seychelles black parrot , mascarinus barklyi , is split from lesser vasa - parrot , mascarinus niger . finally , psittacula has been rearranged per kundu et al . ( 2012 ) . [ psittacidae , falconiformes & psittaciformes , 2 . 63 ]", "since 1993 , on an almost annual basis , a conservation program has collected blood samples from the echo parakeet population . by chance , the sampling periods have encompassed the pbfd outbreak , and consequently this archive presents a novel opportunity to monitor the evolution of a pathogen in a natural host population before , during , and after an outbreak . by reconstructing the phylogenetic history of bfdv in the echo parakeet population , we aimed to identify the mutation ( s ) that may have led to the outbreak . since the circovirus capsid is immunogenic ( 17 ) , we expected the outbreak to be defined by mutations in the capsid gene and for codons in this gene to show evidence for positive selection ( as opposed to the rep , which should be conserved due to its critical role in replication ) . we reconstruct the bfdv phylogeny using isolates from both parrot populations to identify any evidence for transmission and in particular for any indication that the outbreak was caused by the invasive species . finally , we take advantage of our extensive time - stamped archive of samples to estimate the evolutionary rate of bfdv . recent evidence from studies of other single - stranded dna ( ssdna ) viruses suggests that these pathogens are characterized by high rates of evolution , on a par with single - stranded rna ( ssrna ) viruses ( 14 , 55 , 56 ) .", "many endemic mascarene birds , including the dodo , are derived from south asian ancestors , and the english palaeontologist julian hume has proposed that this may be the case for all the parrots there as well . sea levels were lower during the pleistocene , so it was possible for species to colonise some of the then less isolated islands . although most extinct parrot species of the mascarenes are poorly known , subfossil remains show that they shared features such as enlarged heads and jaws , reduced pectoral bones , and robust leg bones . hume has suggested that they have a common origin in the radiation of the tribe psittaculini , basing this theory on morphological features and the fact that psittacula parrots have managed to colonise many isolated islands in the indian ocean . the psittaculini may have invaded the area several times , as many of the species were so specialised that they may have evolved significantly on hotspot islands before the mascarenes emerged from the sea . a 2011 genetic study instead found that the mascarene parrot ( mascarinus mascarinus ) of r\u00e9union was most closely related to the lesser vasa parrot ( coracopsis nigra ) from madagascar and nearby islands , and therefore unrelated to the psittacula parrots , disputing the theory of their common origin .", "though mauritius had previously been visited by arab vessels in the middle ages and portuguese ships between 1507 and 1513 , they did not settle on the island . the dutch empire acquired the island in 1598 , renaming it after maurice of nassau , and it was used from then on for the provisioning of trade vessels of the dutch east india company . to the dutch sailors who visited mauritius from 1598 and onwards , the fauna was mainly interesting from a culinary standpoint . of the eight or so parrot species endemic to the mascarenes , only the echo parakeet ( psittacula echo ) of mauritius has survived . the others were likely all made extinct by a combination of excessive hunting and deforestation .", "the veracity of hahn ' s claim was questioned as early as 1876 , and the illustration appears to be plagiarised from the plate by fran\u00e7ois - nicolas martinet which was published at least 50 years earlier . after king maximilian died in 1825 , his collection was auctioned off , but no mascarene parrot was mentioned in the inventory list of species . hahn did not mention the date in which he actually saw the bird which could have been long before 1834 . however , the fact that martinet ' s image was copied and that no mounted specimen exists ( though such a rare bird would probably have been preserved ) makes hahn ' s account dubious .", "tantalising scraps of evidence , including an alleged photograph of a living tortoise , survive from the late nineteenth century . however , the last generally - accepted record of mascarene giant tortoises was in 1844 . a british expedition to round island , off the coast of mauritius , found several living tortoises . a female was captured and laid eggs , with the hatchlings distributed amongst various friends of one of the explorers . there is no information available as to which of the two mauritian species was found on round island , nor is there anything known about what became of the hatchlings . given that goats and rabbits were introduced to round island shortly thereafter , it is probable that one of the hatchlings became the endling of the genus cylindraspis .", "prevalence and nucleotide diversity ( average number of nucleotide differences per site ) of bfdv in the echo parakeets .

pecos region provide measurements comparable to those of syverson and prothero . the few available ( dark canyon cave ) are generally relatively large , suggesting that g . amplus is the species represented in that cave .", "the living california condor and the pleistocene condors , especially the condor represented in the rancho la brea deposits , have either been considered as separate species ( g . californianus and g . amplus ) or the pleistocene form has been considered a temporal subspecies of g . californianus . the primary difference used to separate the two taxa was size , the pleistocene form being larger . howard ( 1962 : 241 ) did note \" the presence of a pair of markedly swelled ridges , one on either side and extending along the median line of the ventral surface of the nasal process of the premaxilla \" in one specimen from howell ' s ridge cave and the probable occurrence on a second specimen . this was in contrast to specimens from rancho la brea and rocky arroyo cave ( = burnet cave ) .", "pasadena , calif . -

aged la brea tar pits . what they found , syverson says , is that \" there ' s definitely one species distinction , and possibly two . \"", "after looking at modern condors , syverson turned to la brea . she examined pleistocene specimens from various tar pits , the oldest 35 , 000 and the youngest 9 , 000 years old . the record thus provides a glimpse into a long time variation within a species restricted to one location . over the entire 26 , 000 - year record , syverson found no change in condor morphology . although this had been previously discovered in a similar study of golden eagles from la brea , syverson says it ' s remarkable to see that the drastic climate change accompanying the end of the last ice age had no impact on the size of the species that lived through it .", "in fact , that type specimen suggests that the pleistocene condors at la brea may be a third distinct condor species . the broken tarsometatarsus - - housed in the berkeley collection - - is larger than any other condor bone syverson studied . \" it would ' ve been an outlier from either species , \" she says . \" based on the fact that the type specimen is outside the range for both of the groups , i wonder if we need to define a third species for the extinct la brea condor . \"", "this study also documents evidence that ancient and modern condors coexisted for some time , and that the pleistocene species may have lived at the same time as humans in western north america . several tarsometatarsi of the older , bigger species were found in the youngest pit at la brea . this pit also contains the remains of the la brea woman , the only prehistoric human discovered in the tar pits . another piece of evidence pointing to the same conclusion comes from the berkeley museum collection . it is a bone from a native american midden -

time polymerase chain reaction , and sera were assayed for antibodies against opxv . animals from five genera ( cricetomys , graphiurus , funiscirus , and heliosciurus ) had antibodies against opxv , and three genera ( cricetomys , graphiurus , and xerus ) had evidence of opxv dna in tissues . additionally , 172 persons living near the trapping sites were interviewed regarding risk factors for opxv exposure , and their sera were analyzed . fifty - three percent had igg against opxv ; none had igm . our findings suggest that several species of forest - dwelling rodents from ghana are susceptible to naturally occurring opxv infection , and that persons living near forests may have low - level or indirect exposure to opxv - infected animals , possibly resulting in sub - clinical infections .", "the first case of human monkeypox ( mpx ) was identified in 1970 in the basankusu district of the democratic republic of the congo ( former zaire ) during the intensification phase of the smallpox eradication campaign . 1 in that same year , five additional mpx cases were reported in west africa , four in liberia and one in sierra leone . 2 , 3 however , during the subsequent 13 years , only 11 of the 155 mpx cases identified in africa were reported from west africa countries ( c\u00f4te d ' ivoire , liberia , nigeria , sierra leone ) ; 4 most cases occurred in the democratic republic of the congo .", "most of the previous field investigations designed to identify the sylvatic reservoir of mpx virus were confined to relatively short - term outbreak responses and involved general broad spectrum collections of a wide variety of mammalian taxa . the taxa and animals examined were mostly composed of those species that can be purchased from local hunters and collectors . such taxonomically broad surveys yield large numbers of samples , but usually do not sufficiently sample any individual taxon given the likelihood of a low incidence of active infections in presumptive reservoir species . 6 \u2013 8", "to determine the precise geographic origin of the infected animals and to assess whether one or more of the three implicated species might harbor mpxv in nature , we traveled to the area in which the animals were originally trapped and collected additional specimens ( from the same time of year ) , which could then be tested for mpxv . furthermore , we examined residents of nearby communities for serologic evidence of orthopoxvirus ( opxv ) exposure to determine to what extent persons living near these animals might be exposed to the virus . the findings of these investigations are detailed below .", "the origin of the mpxv - infected animals imported into the united states on april 21 , 2003 , was traced to a single facility in accra , ghana . a description of husbandry practices at the facility was undertaken by officials from the ghanaian wildlife division in cooperation with the owner , focusing on animal housing , turnover , shipping , and other practices that could have influenced virus transmission among captive animals .", "two localities outside accra were identified by the facility owner as being the areas from which the original animals from the april 2003 shipment had been collected . one site ( 5 . 98125n , 0 . 58489e ) was near the town of sogakofe , in the volta region and the other site ( 5 . 78562n , 1 . 01410w ) was near the city of oda in the eastern region . in march\u2013april , 2004 , animals representing several of the species contained in the 2003 consignment and others commonly found in the two source areas were collected and evaluated for the presence of mpxv and for serologic evidence of prior or current infection .", "the collection and processing of animals followed methods for trapping and sampling small mammals for virologic testing published by the centers for disease control and prevention ( cdc ) . live animals were handled according to guidelines and recommendations of the cdc institutional animal care and use committee and as outlined in the institutional animal care and use committee protocol field collections in zoonoses investigations . small rodents were either trapped live by using live traps ( h . b . sherman traps , tallahassee , fl ) and locally produced live traps or were captured live by hand . gross pathologic examinations were followed by a complete necropsy in which blood , heart , liver , kidney , lung , spleen , and skin samples were collected and immediately frozen at \u221220\u00b0c before being transferred to dry ice coolers . specimens were split , with half remaining at the noguchi memorial institute for medical research in accra and half sent to cdc laboratories in atlanta .", "the cdc laboratories in atlanta evaluated tissue specimens for evidence of opxv and mpxv ( by using a polymerase chain reaction [ pcr ] and virus culture ) and assayed blood specimens for antibodies ( by using an enzyme - linked immunosorbent assay [ elisa ] ) .", "residents living in villages near the two original trapping sites were contacted by ghanaian ministry of health officials and cdc investigators and asked to participate in a research study to evaluate human exposure to opxv species . local ministry of health workers explained the purpose of the study and read the consent form to prospective enrollees , translating from english when necessary . parental consent was obtained for persons less than 18 years of age . adolescents ( age = 11\u201317 years ) and children ( age = 7\u201310 years ) were asked to provide their assent to participate in the study .", "persons who consented to participate were asked to provide basic demographic information ( e . g . , age , occupation ) and to answer several questions pertaining to illness history , smallpox vaccination status , and exposure to wildlife . in addition , one blood specimen was collected from each study participant . blood for serologic testing was collected in standard marble - top vacutainer\u2122 tubes and stored refrigerated for not more than 48 hours before being centrifuged . centrifugation and collection of serum was conducted at the noguchi memorial institute for medical research . serum specimens were divided and frozen ; one aliquot was kept at the ministry of health laboratories and one was sent to cdc for analysis of opxv -

[", "] , where development appears to be buffered so that slight abnormalities of genotype or slight perturbations in the environment do not lead to the production of abnormal phenotypes . however , evolutionary geneticists define canalization as the tendency of traits to evolve a reduction in variability [", "] . therefore , canalization and ds are subcategories of developmental buffering : the first can be appraised by estimating interindividual variance whereas the most commonly used estimate of ds in bilaterally symmetrical organisms is fluctuating asymmetry ( fa ) ; i . e . the intraindividual variation due to random differences between left and right sides . the question of whether or not canalization and ds are different buffering mechanisms has been a constant source of debate . two recent reviews implicitly [", "] assume that ds is a special case of canalization , a viewpoint also embraced by several authors ( e . g . [", "] found that the vectors describing inter - and intraindividual variation of landmark position for fly vein traits were highly concordant . on the other hand , debat et al .

[", "] work with mouse mandibles found patterns of intra - and interindividual variation that were only partly consistent \u2013 . at first glance , the different results may suggest that the mechanisms that affect canalization and ds are related in some developmental contexts but not in others . the problem is , however , that according to the causes of phenotypic variation a distinction between genetic and environmental canalization is necessary [", ") : the first refer to influential factors ( e . g . temperature ) that are shared by groups of individuals , whereas the latter are residual deviations from the phenotype that would be specified on the basis of genotype and general environmental effects . such deviations are unique to individuals and are largely unpredictable . the variance associated with special environmental effects can be estimated when experiments are performed on completely inbred lines ( i . e . , there is no genetic variance ) . in bilaterally symmetrical organisms it is also feasible to estimate the two sources that contribute to those special environmental effects : among - individual (", "the third process involved in the control of phenotypic variability is plasticity , which can be defined as the ability of an individual to express one phenotype under one set of environmental circumstances and another phenotype under another set . the expressed phenotypes can be discontinuous thus eliciting discrete morphs ( i . e . , polyphenism ) , or there can be a continuous range of potential phenotypes ( i . e . , reaction norm ) . the reaction norm is thus a property of the genome : genetic canalization and phenotypic plasticity are not mutually exclusive and can combine to form canalized reaction norms [", "] , and the vein pattern is highly conserved across species ( e . g .

sea and can be more than 15 cm ( 6 \" ) tall . the smallest are only a few mm long as adults . stauromedusae typically live in cold water , although they are occasionally found on warm , tropical or subtropical shores . few scientists have studied stauromedusae , so not so much is known about them , although they are not uncommon along many undisturbed rocky shorelines in europe and northern north america and asia . some have also been found in temperate regions in the southern hemisphere . most stauromedusae are colored to blend in well with their surroundings and are seen only by the most careful observers . most are found in the low intertidal to shallow subtidal shoreline area . some of the best - known north - temperate species have become much rarer in recent decades .", "mills , c . e . internet 1999 - present . stauromedusae : list of all valid species names . electronic internet document available at urltoken published by the author , web page established october 1999 , last updated ( see date at end of page ) .", "in december 2010 , along with several colleagues particularly interested in stauromedusae , i began to write pages for the encyclopedia of life for every species of stauromedusae or staurozoa . the pages will include images , maps , a description , and summary of all that is known for each species . by early 2011 , those pages should start to appear within the encyclopedia of life and until then , some can be found by a general online search under genus and species names . this project could easily take a couple of years to complete .", "one of the most interesting recent observations of stauromedusae was made by richard lutz and colleagues , who visit deep - sea hydrothermal vents by submersible and have discovered that a new species of stauromedusa is the dominant organism in at least two particular areas ( see deep - sea research part ii , volume 45 , pages 329 - 334 , 1998 ) . at the first location , a 2605 m deep vent along the east pacific rise , many stauromedusae ( of a single species ) were located within a fissure of an active vent site . the numerous stauromedusae ( lucernaria janetae collins and daly , 2005 ) at the 2750 m \" sarah ' s spring \" vent site , also on the east pacific rise , are pictured here . it is very exciting to find this typically shallow , shoreline kind of organism as a main player in such a different ecosystem .", "order stauromedusae sessile jellyfish that are vase - , goblet - , or trumpet - shaped , and usually bear 8 groups of tentacles . no more than 2\u20133 cm long . apparently lacking polypoid stage . temperate and cold temperate waters worldwide . the classification of living cnidarians is relatively stable and generally accepted . \u2026", "there are about 50 known species of stauromedusae , which range from the intertidal zone to deep hydrothermal vent habitats , and from antarctica and north polar regions to ( much less frequently ) the tropics . where relevant , i have listed synonyms to good species names in parentheses on the line ( s ) following .", "the deepwater stauromedusan lucernaria janetae n . sp is described from adult and juvenile specimens collected from the east pacific rise . lucernaria janetae is the first species in the genus recorded from the pacific ocean , and differs from its congeners in size and morphology . mitochondrial ( 16s ) and nuclear ( ssu ) ribosomal gene sequences from l . janetae were analyzed with those of representative stauromedusan taxa to evaluate stauromedusan monophyly . both genes recovered a strongly monophyletic stauromedusae that is the sister group to all other medusozoans . support of these hypotheses is robust to method of phylogenetic reconstruction and to outgroup selection , buttressing the argument that stauromedusae should be recognized as the class staurozoa . the molecular markers used here favor the same topology of relationships among our samples and clearly distinguished between two species , haliclystus sanjuanensis and h . octoradiatus , that have been considered synonymous by many workers . a stable systematic framework for stauromedusae appears achievable through comprehensive study of both morphological and sequence data .", "the fourth order , stauromedusae , comprises some 30 described species of nonswimming , stalked jellies . these species occur chiefly in cooler waters . they are goblet - shaped and fixed by a basal stalk ; the mouth is situated at the upper end . ranging from 1 to 10 cm ( 0 . 4 to 4 inches ) in\u2026", "stauromedusae are little stalked jellyfishes that spend their entire life attached to the substrate ( rock or algae , usually ) , rather than swimming freely up in the water column like most other jellyfish . they have long been considered an an order ( stauromedusae ) in the class scyphozoa of the phylum cnidaria , but recent morphological and molecular studies ( marques and collins , 2004 ; collins and daly , 2005 ) argued convincingly that they should be elevated to a rank equal to both the scyphozoa and cubozoa , as the staurozoa . for those who prefer to apply taxonomic ranks , these might now all be considered classes , but many scientists are pulling away from the concept of tight adherence to the old hierarchies of rank , in which case just \" staurozoa \" will do .", "having put together a list of what i believe to be all valid scientific names for the ctenophora , i decided to compile a similar list of names for the stauromedusae ( phylum cnidaria : class staurozoa ) that seem to be valid at the present time ; links are included to stauromedusa images located elsewhere on the web . whereas i believe that the list of genera and species is fairly complete , placement of these genera into families and subfamilies seems still to be fairly plastic , with need for further revision indicated . the basic structure of this taxonomy comes from oskar carlgren ( 1935 ) and tohru uchida ( 1929 ) . few living authors ( including myself ) have seen many species of stauromedusae , which has been one problem in interpreting relationships . presenting here an internet webpage rather than a scientific paper , i have tried to be consistent in interpreting previous authors ' work at the family and subfamily levels . dr . yayoi hirano of japan , perhaps the best - informed stauromedusan biologist in the world at this point , has offered some comments and corrections to this list . other scientists have recently taken a new interest in this small group of unusual and beautiful marine animals .", "copyright \u00a9 1999 -

( 2002 ) , this species encompasses only the ranges of subspecies viridis and nuntius of traditionally defined c . viridis . in other words , the range extends from southern alberta and southern saskatchewan in canada , to the northern fringe of northern central mexico , west to idaho , wyoming , colorado , and extreme eastern arizona , east to the dakotas , western iowa , nebraska , central kansas , central oklahoma , and western and central texas in the united states ( stebbins 2003 , campbell and lamar 2004 ) . the ranges and relationships of crotalus oreganus and crotalus viridis in the four corners region and in northwestern colorado need further clarification ( hammerson 1999 ; brennan and holycross , 2004 ) . its elevational range extends from about 100 m asl near the rio grande ( campbell and lamar 2004 ) to at least 2 , 895 m asl ( 9 , 500 feet ) in colorado ( hammerson 1999 ) .", "mammal specialization may be related to several life history strategies ( martins et al . 2002 ) . in some species of pitvipers , it could be associated with the increased venom toxicity in juveniles ; this may be a consequence of the need to immobilize larger prey such as a mammal ( andrade & abe 1999 ) . furthermore , the adoption of a juvenile diet based on mammals is more profitable energetically than an ecthothermic diet ( martins et al . 2002 ) . in crotalus durissus populations , the low frequency of ectothermic prey could explain such eventual facts .", "the phospholipase a 2 activity of crotalus venom is well known and this activity is responsible for breakdown of phospholipid membranes leading to hemolysis ( zwaal et al , 1975 ) . to assess biological activity of cv , its hemolytic activity was measured . crude and labeled cv did not cause direct hemolysis ( not shown ) . an indirect hemolytic activity evaluation did not show any significant difference between unlabeled ( ic50 301 . 5 + 73 \u00b5g / ml ) and labeled cv ( ic50 247 . 7 + 49 \u00b5g / ml ) ( fig . 1 ) .", "the acute exudative glomerular lesion of the rabbit ' s kidney caused by crotalus venom does not lead to a subacute or chronic glomerulonephritis . the hemorrhagic lesion of the glomerular tuft may show a process of repair characterized by the ingrowth , into the hemorrhagic masses , of endothelial cells from the uninjured part of the tuft . this process is , however , more analogous to the organization of a red thrombus than it is to any form of glomerular lesion known in man , and can hardly serve as an experimental demonstration of the mode of development of a subacute or chronic glomerular nephritis .", "approximately 90 percent of rattlesnakes of the genus crotalus , exhibit ontogenetic shifts in food composition , changing from ectothermic to endothermic preys . these variations could be attributed to changes in morphological , behavioral and physiological characteristics during ontogeny ( mushinsky 1987 ) . alternatively a small percentage of rattlesnakes feed almost exclusively on endothermic preys , like c . durissus ( salom\u00e3o et al . 1995 ; duarte 2003 ) , c . horridus and c . molossus ( clark 2002 ) . klauber ( 1956 ) gathered these three species and another , c . basiliscus , in the \" durissus group \" , to demonstrate this specialization .", "the snakes examined represent a total of 452 individuals of crotalus durissus from the central region of brazil covering forest formations of the amazon and atlantic forests , caatinga and cerrado ; identified as 213 males , 167 females and 72 neonates and juveniles . we considered specimens to be neonates when their snout - vent length was smaller than 400mm ( hoyos , 2012 ) . the specimens are housed in the scientific collections of instituto butantan ( ibsp ) , museu de zoologia da universidade de s\u00e3o paulo ( mzusp ) , and universidade de bras\u00edlia ( chunb ) . animals kept in captivity prior to being deposited in a scientific collection were excluded from this study .", "the western rattlesnake ( crotalus viridis ) is a polytypic north american pit viper [ 16 , 23 \u2013 24 ] , widely distributed across broad latitudinal and elevational gradients . it extends from the missouri river in the east , into saskatchewan , alberta , and british columbia to the north , along the west coast of the united states , and south into mexico ( fig 2 ; [ 23 ] ) . habitat includes deciduous and coniferous forests , scrub , prairie grasslands , shrub steppe , desert margins , and sand dunes as arrayed across a gradient from sea level to 4000m [ 24 ] . as a consequence , it displays considerable variation within and among populations , life stages , and subspecies .", "crotalus venom ( cv ) produces neurotoxicity , coagulation disorders , systemic myotoxicity and acute renal failure , with possible additional heart and liver damage ( monteiro et al , 2001 and barraviera et al , 1995 ) . this venom contains enzymes , toxins ( crotoxin , crotamine , gyroxin , convulxin ) and several peptides ( barraviera et al , 1995 ) . pharmacokinetic and tissue distribution studies are very important for clinical use . although crotoxin has been labeled with 125 i for membrane interaction analysis ( krizaj et al , 1996 ) , radiolabeling of snake venom with 99m - technetium ( 99m tc ) has not been reported , neither has the utility of 99m tc \u0096based snake venom for in vivo studies been assessed .", "we investigated food patterns in the diet composition of 452 specimens of crotalus durissus from central brazil . thirty - three items were recorded corresponding to four categories : rodents ( 75 . 76 % ) , marsupials ( 6 . 06 % ) , unidentified mammals ( 9 . 09 % ) and reptiles ( 9 . 09 % ) . adults of both sexes and some juveniles feed mostly on mammals , specifically rodents , it is the most active and abundant prey throughout the year mainly in areas from cerrado . in addition , we observed that in c . durissus there is a trend in the diet of females could be more diverse , maybe this can be associated to sexual differences involving different strategies of the feeding biology of this rattlesnake .", "technetium - 99m ( 99m tc ) has been the radionuclide of choice for nuclear medicine procedures and experimental research . because of its optimal nuclear properties , 99m tc is suitable for high efficiency detection with the advantage of reduced radiological waste . crotalus venom ( cv ) has been shown to reduce tumors in clinical studies and tissue distribution studies are very important for clinical use . the goal of this work was to obtain cv labeled with 99m tc which preserves its biological activity . after labeling , biological activity was assessed by hemolytic activity evaluation . labeled and crude venom caused indirect hemolysis provided that the incubation medium contained an exogenous source of lecithin . high yield radiolabeled - cv was obtained and biological activity was preserved . the results suggest that 99m tc - cv can be a useful tool for biodistribution studies .", "patrones de alimentaci\u00f3n fueron investigados en la composici\u00f3n de la dieta de 452 ejemplares de crotalus durissus de brasil central . treinta y tres \u00edtems fueron registrados , correspondientes a cuatro categor\u00edas : roedores ( 75 . 76 % ) , marsupiales ( 6 . 6 % ) , mam\u00edferos no identificados ( 9 . 09 % ) y reptiles ( 9 . 09 % ) . los adultos de ambos sexos e individuos j\u00f3venes se alimentaron b\u00e1sicamente de mam\u00edferos , en espec\u00edfico de roedores , esta es la presa m\u00e1s activa y abundante durante todo el a\u00f1o , principalmente en las \u00e1reas de cerrado . adem\u00e1s fue observado que en c . durissus existe una tendencia a que la dieta de las hembras sea m\u00e1s diversa , factor que podr\u00eda estar relacionado a las diferencias sexuales que implican diferentes estrategias de alimentaci\u00f3n en la biolog\u00eda de esta serpiente cascabel .", "according to popular belief , one can tell the age of a rattlesnake by the number of rattles present at the end of its tail . a baby rattlesnake is born with the first segment of its rattle , called a \" button \" . as the snake grows ( and with each molting of its outer skin ) an additional segment is added to its rattle . younger snakes shed more often than older snakes , but on average , free - ranging snakes may molt three to six times a year . another clue to a snake ' s age is its color : timber rattlers darken as they age , and the darkest are old males . the scientific name , crotalus horridus , is formed from two latin words : crotalum , meaning \" bell or rattle , \" and horridus , for \" dreadful \" \u2014which makes reference to its venom .", "a small species of the genus hepatozoon found in a specimen of crotalus durissus terrificus from the botucatu region , s\u00e3o paulo state , brazil is described . the morphologic alterations induced in the snake ' s erythrocytes by the presence of this parasite are described . morphology and morphometric analyses were performed using the qwin lite 2 . 5 computerized image analysis system ( leica ) . the hepatozoon possessed a small and short body ( 8 . 1 + / - 0 . 5 microm long and 3 . 8 + / - 0 . 4 microm wide ) , with round extremities . the cytoplasm varied from pale blue to basophilic and had no granulations . its nucleus was large , occupied a large area of the cytoplasm , and was irregular in shape and not condensed . despite its small size , this parasite induced important changes in the host cell . total parasitemia observed was 56 . 6 % ."]}

claude petit e . mail : rhopalducy @ urltoken", "the ithomiini comprises of 376 known species , although it is likely that at least another 30 will be discovered in the near future . all are confined to the neotropical region .", "are unpalatable to birds , and are consequently mimicked in appearance by many other species . these include other unpalatable species ( m\u00fcllerian mimics ) , not only from the ithomiinae but also from several other butterfly families . there are also a large number of edible species ( batesian mimics ) which have evolved similar patterns . birds have the ability to memorise butterfly patterns and so learn to avoid eating noxious species , but are also fooled into ignoring similarly marked edible species .", "ithomiines are characterised by having small eyes , slender abdomens and long drooping antennae that lack distinct clubs . males have a plume of long androconial scales or \" hair pencils \" on the costa of their hindwings . these are hidden from view when the butterflies are at rest , but are displayed when the wings are held open during courtship . other ithomiine characteristics include a very slow and deep wing beat , and a preference for inhabiting the darkest recesses of the forest understorey .", "there are basically 2 types of ithomiine . the first type are the black and orange - banded \" tigers \" , many of which are mimicked by other species due to their unpalatability to birds . the second type are the \" glasswings \" , recognised by their transparent or translucent wings , prominent veins , and orange wing margins . many genera contain examples of both of these types , and in some cases an individual species may produce adults of both forms according to location .", "most novices find the ithomiini very difficult to identify . using only the patterns to identify species is very unreliable because there are so many similar species . also many species produce a variety of different colour forms according to locality and season . the best approach therefore is to use the hindwing venation and other anatomical features to identify the genus , and to then look at the wing patterns to short - list the likely species .", "the butterflies are varied in their habitat requirements - most species occur in lowland rainforests , many others specialise in cloudforest habitats , and a few occur in deciduous forests .", "this species is associated primarily with wet tropical rainforest habitats , and is most often found in shady damp areas in the vicinity of rivers or streams , at altitudes between 200 - 800m .", "gallusser suspected that the different oviposition strategy was influenced by egg predation , and found that the main threat came from ectatomma ants , which were common on the sw slope , but entirely absent from the ne slope . she also noted that partial deforestation and path clearance on the sw slope allowed more sunlight to penetrate , so that eggs laid on solanum in these situations would be easier for predators to locate . the implication is that ssp . nov is evolving different egg - laying behaviour as a direct result of human interference in its habitat .", "as part of the research , gallusser moved eggs from one site to another , and from one substrate to another , and studied the survival rates of 400 eggs on both mountain slopes . she found that on the sw slope , eggs positioned away from solanum had a much higher survival rate than those on the plants . laboratory and field studies however failed to provide observations of predation , even when the eggs were offered directly to the ants , so it seems possible that the mere presence of the aggressive ants on the foodplants may be enough to discourage the females from ovipositing , forcing them to lay elsewhere .", "the eggs are white , oval , and laid singly , although several may be dotted about in close proximity by one or more females . the eggs hatch after about 3 days .", "when newly hatched the caterpillar is transparent . it consumes its egg shell before beginning to feed on the foodplant . after each moult it consumes its shed skin , leaving only the chitinous head capsule remaining . when fully grown it is grey with a yellow line along the length of the body on each side . it takes only about 12 days from hatching to being ready to pupate .", "the chrysalis is pale green with shiny metallic golden reflections . the abdominal segments are compressed , and there is a dorsal hump . the overall impression is of a small leaf dripping with rain . the butterfly emerges after about a week .", "the lifecycle from egg to adult takes about 3 weeks to complete , so in theory up to 17 generations could be produced annually . however during the dry season reproductive activity is minimal . during this period the adults aggregate with numerous other ithomiine species in small pockets within the forest . in brazil and ecuador for example i have found several such aggregations along the beds of small dry streams , where as many as 100 ithomiines of up to 10 different species could be found aestivating among the stilt - like rootlets of palms .", "the adults are normally found in small \" leks \" of up to a dozen butterflies .", "the males fly very slowly and almost incessantly around the lek area , only pausing to settle for a moment here and there , at which time they slowly fan their wings , probably to aid dissemination of pheromones from the androconial \" hairs \" on their wings .", "females visit various flowers for nectar and pollen - the latter may be essential in the production of eggs and the maintenance of ovaries , as has been demonstrated to be the case with heliconiines . females also receive proteins during sperm transfer .", "gravid females fly very slowly , periodically dipping down to investigate solanum plants . having found the foodplant they then spend 2 or 3 minutes testing it , using olfactory sensors on their legs , antennae and abdomens , to determine whether it is solanum mite or another related species .", "all photographs , artwork , text & website design are the property of adrian hoskins ( unless otherwise stated ) and are protected by copyright . photographs or text on this website must not be reproduced in part or in whole or published elsewhere without prior written consent of adrian hoskins / urltoken", "html public \" -

[ 2 ] their deep , laterally narrow bodies are easily noticed through the profusion of reef life . the conspicuous coloration of butterflyfish may be intended for interspecies communication . butterflyfish have uninterrupted dorsal fins with tail fins that may be rounded or truncated , but are never forked .", "butterflyfish look like smaller versions of angelfish ( pomacanthidae ) , but unlike these , lack preopercle spines at the gill covers . some members of the genus heniochus resemble the moorish idol ( zanclus cornutus ) of the monotypic zanclidae . among the paraphyletic perciformes , the former are probably not too distantly related to butterflyfish , whereas the zanclidae seem far less close .", "they ignore most other fish and are generally peaceful , therefore multiple butterflyfish will have no problem living together . one should however be cautious about keeping similar species together unless they are a couple .", "generally diurnal and frequenting waters less than 18 m ( 59 ft ) deep ( though some species descend to 180 m ( 590 ft ) ) , butterflyfish stick to particular home ranges . these corallivores are especially territorial , forming pairs and staking claim to a specific coral head . contrastingly , the zooplankton feeders form large conspecific groups . by night , butterflyfish hide in reef crevices and exhibit markedly different coloration .", "adults are most often seen in pairs , but are also found alone or in loose groups of up to about 30 individuals . sometimes groups will invade the nests of damselfish to eat the eggs . adults will also join groups of zooplankton feeding fish that contain some varieties of anthias , damselfish , wrasses , triggerfish , and other butterflyfish . juveniles will often associate with small surgeonfish ( tangs ) and other juvenile butterflyfish .", "the butterflyfish are known for their attractive patterns and colours . they are closely related to angelfishs , but can always be distinguished , as they lack the spines on each side of the head of the angelfish .", "the klein ' s butterflyfish is best kept in a large fish only live rock ( folr ) community tank . like many butterflyfish it can be a coral eater and so is not recommended for a reef tank . success may be achieved if it is well fed and has carefully selected corals . but it does eat most soft corals as well as sessile invertebrates , and may very well begin to nip on hard coral polyps", "no sexual difference is noted for this species . butterflyfish species studied up to this time indicate that these fish are gonochoristic , meaning that each fish is either a male or a female and they do not change sex .", "i have bought one klein butterflyfish from the local marine fish shop , and i have to say that i have fallen in love with this fish . it is not only hardy , but also . . .

marie de lesseps ( 1805 - 1894 ) was inaugurated on november 1869 . the channel spans 160 km , from the bay of suez in the red sea to port said in the mediterranean , using the intermediate manzala , timsah and bitter lakes .", "there are at present 40 species of decapods in the mediterranean accounted for as lessepsian migrants ( table i ) while , on the contrary , the number of species dispersed in the area through ships ballast water is considered negligible . the occasional presence of the lobster thennus orientalis , first recorded in 1896 in fiume , italy ( elton , 1958 ) , can be explained by transport on ships\u0092 hulls .", "the kiel canal , built between 1887 and 1895 in an extent of 98 km , links the north sea with the baltic sea , from the mouth of the elbe river to the kiel bay , bypassing the detour along the danish peninsula . it is possible that the estuarine mud crab rhithropanopeus harrisii found its way to the baltic through the kiel canal , after its introduction in the netherlands , since its first record in that sea , in 1936 , was from the baltic end of the canal ( wolff , 1954 ) . in other respects , this canal is of little biogeographical relevance .", "the panama canal spans 64 km from coast to coast . although its lake - lock design and the presence of a wide freshwater zone supplied by the chagres river precludes any lessepsian migration , at both ends of the present canal several fouling and perforating organisms ( pholadid bivalves , teredos , cirripeds , bryozoans , and other ) usually considered as natives of the opposing ocean , can be observed . these are euryhaline forms that can withstand transport through the freshwater section attached to the hulls of local vessels that have been moored for a long time ( carlton , 1985 ) .", "it has been extensively debated whether it is possible that the ballast water discharged at opposite sides of the canal , since its aperture in 1914 , could be an \" active \" mechanism for the transport . carlton ( 1985 ) recorded 9 invertebrates and 4 fishes for which this mechanism is possible and 5 invertebrates and 2 fishes for which it is probable . among the decapod species , transport in ballast water is considered a possible mechanism for rhithropanopeus harrisii and the freshwater crab neorhynchus alcocki found in pedro miguel lock . eurypanopeus dissimilis , found in the third lock , ranges from florida to brazil and its presence in the panama canal is not unusual .", "several species of crabs , such as pachygrapsus transversus , plagusia chabrus , p . depressa , p . tuberculata , planes minutus , carcinides maenas , menippe convexa , etc . , have been observed attached to ship\u0092s hulls ( wolff , 1954 ) . this was a convenient means of dispersal for crabs when the old wooden hulls were in use , but it became unavailable with the modern metallic hulls , antifouling paints and reduced stowage time . no decapods were detected during a two - year survey of 89 vessels of different types that moored at new zealand ports , although 45 species of sessile invertebrates were found ( skerman , 1960 ) .", "ballast water offers the most effective mechanism for the introduction of exotic decapod species , although it has been confirmed only in a few instances ( carlton , 1985 ) . larval stages of decapod crustaceans have been recovered from ballast tanks in viable conditions ( chu et al . , 1997 ) . rees and catley ( 1949 ) proposed this mechanism for the introduction of the larvae of processa equimana , living in the north sea plankton , into the mediterranean and red sea , but carlton ( 1985 ) considered this unlikely . furthermore , the north sea form has been described as a different species , p . modica , with the subspecies p . modica carolii in the mediterranean .", "peters and panning ( 1933 ) reviewed the available evidence for the first implant of the chinese crab eriocheir sinensis in the north sea , from 1912 , via ballast water . subsequently large populations of this crab have colonized the european brackish waters and have extended to california and canada , apparently using the same transport mechanism ( cohen and carlton , 1997 ) .", "ship cargo also seems to play a role in the transport of organisms . the saber crab platychirograpsus spectabilis was transported in a cargo of cedar logs from tabasco state , mexico , to hillsborough ( st . petersburg ) , florida , where it has become permanently established ( marchand , 1946 ) .", "these and similar structures can be slowly towed across the ocean , with the submersed parts unprotected by antifouling paints , and stay anchored for extended periods of time in different parts of the world . in this way was transported the japanese shore crab plagusia dentipes , observed alive in california after a trans - pacific cruise of 61 days on a self - powered drilling platform , which had been working for four years between japan and malaysia ( benech , 1978 ) . similar circumstances are mentioned for the transport of plagusia tuberculata , together with an encrusting community of cirripeds , on an oil platform built in japan and transported to new zealand , after a voyage of 68 days ( foster and williams , 1979 ) .", "according to zenkevitch ( 1963 ) two mediterranean shrimps , palaemon adspersus and p . elegans , were accidentally introduced into the aral sea with species of mullets . we have already mentioned the possible introduction of rhithropanopeus harrisii along the atlantic coast of the united states , with oysters , and of carcinus maenas , into san francisco bay , with algae used for packing of living bait ( cohen and carlton , 1997 ) . the dispersal of several species of crayfish throughout the united states , orconectes rusticus for instance ( table iii ) , is attributed to their escape from containers of living bait used by sport fishermen ( taylor and redmer , 1996 ) .", "cohen and carlton ( 1997 ) recorded 16 cases of interception of living specimens of eriocheir sinensis at san francisco airport between 1989 and 1995 , with the confiscation of 10 to 50 specimens on each occasion . this species is sold alive in asian food markets in the united states ( lemaitre , 1995 ) .", "the trade of organisms for aquaria is another means of dispersal . living specimens of atya scabra and procambarus clarkii can be observed frequently at the pet shops in caracas .", "the species of peneaidae most frequently cultured are marsupenaeus japonicus and penaeus monodon , but the possibility exists of an increase in the culture of nine other species , p . semisulcatus , farfantepenaeus aztecus , fenneropenaeus indicus , f . penicillatus , sergestes orientalis , litopenaeus schmitti , l . setiferus , l . stylirostris and l . vannamei ( liao and huang , 1982 ) . farfantepenaeus aztecus is already under experimental culture in aquacop station , in tahiti , since 1975 , and l . stylirostris in corpus christy , texas , and crystal river , florida , from approximately the same date . m . japonicus was the first species cultured in the world after the research by hudinaga in 1934 . by 1942 its full culture had been achieved , but only after world war ii it was established on a commercial basis . in the united states shrimp culture began by the native species l . setiferus and f . aztecus in 1963 , and f . duorarum in 1968 . this same year liao began the culture of p . monodon in taiwan .", "although the penaeids have being cultured in shrimp farms for an extended period of time , there is little information in the literature on the escape of these species and its effects on the natural ecosystems . the information available on the dispersal of m . japonicus in the mediterranean sea indicates that , at least under conditions of biological poverty , the species is able to propagate rapidly into the recipient communities .", "a vibriosis producing bacterial hemorragic septicemia is frequently found in penaeid cultures in asia and south america . the ethiological agent , vibrio harveyi , has been detected in shrimp farms in venezuela , infesting l . vanamei vanamei and l . stylyrostris , but it is also present in feral populations of l . schmitti and several species of marine and estuarine fishes ( alvarez et al . , 1998 ) .", ") . it has been introduced through all the american continent , except in nicaragua , belize , chile , paraguay and bolivia . in the caribbean it is farmed in the dominican republic , puerto rico , dominica , guadalupe , martinica , saint lucia and trinidad - tobago ( fao , 1995 ) .", "the crayfishes of the families astacidae and parastacidae are strictly freshwater organisms . according to hobbs et al . ( 1989 ) it would be impossible to mention all the introductions of astacids since in many cases , or in the majority , they have not been recorded ( table iii ) . the largest diversity of species occurs in north america , where hobbs ( 1989 ) reported 271 species and subspecies native to canada , usa and mexico . several species have been transplanted within north america itself . this is the case of orconectes rusticus , which has displaced two other native species of orconectes in illinois ( taylor and redmer , 1996 ) . these displacements can affect the ecosystem through the reduction in the density of macrophytes ( lodge and lorman , 1987 ) and benthonic macroinvertebrates ( houghton et al . , 1998 ) .", "another species that has extended its intracontinental distribution is cherax destructor , from australia , which has furthermore reached intercontinentally to washington state . the most notable case of intercontinental expansion is presented by procambarus clarkii , which has spread out to all continents , except australia and antarctica . laurent and forest ( 1979 ) summarized the damages produced by this species as follows : \" in japan it was introduced since 1930 ( from 18 specimens ) . a short time afterwards it pullulated , destroying rice fields and ditches , producing populations of 2000 k / hectare and not been used by the people [ as food ] in kenya it produced rapidly enormous populations not exploited by the natives breaking the fishing gears and interfering with the breeding of tilapia \" .", "authorization for the introduction of marsupenaeus japonicus , p . monodon , litopenaeus stylirostris and l . vannamei was granted by the ministry of agriculture of venezuela on november 1984 . the original areas of distribution of the two former species are in the indian ocean and the western pacific , and of the other two on the pacific coast of america .", "this species was introduced in 1980 , into a small shrimp farm in margarita island , by la salle foundation . although its culture in the country has been unsuccessful , pereira et al . ( 1996 ) found a wild population in the orinoco delta in 1996 . they considered that this species passed into the natural environment between 1991 and 1993 .", "one specimen of this crayfish ( total length 8 . 2 cm , ivic reference collection ) was captured in a pond of the officers club ( circulo militar ) in caracas . as mentioned before , the species is available at pet shops in the city .", ", a species from the indopacific and red sea regions that has migrated to the mediterranean and several localities in the caribbean , has been recorded by hern\u00e1ndez and bola\u00f1os ( 1995 ) from eastern venezuela . ( 2 )", ", recorded by hern\u00e1ndez and bola\u00f1os ( 1995 ) from eastern venezuela , had not been previously observed outside its original area of distribution , between california and peru , and a misidentification by these authors cannot be ruled out . ( 3 )", "was observed by the first time in 1957 in several localities of the tablazo and strait of maracaibo ( rodr\u00edguez , 1963 ; rodr\u00edguez and morales , 2000 ) . as the species was already very abundant in this estuary in 1957 , it should have been introduced several years before , possibly in the ballast water of oil tankers involved in the intense traffic between the local oil terminals and the eastern coast of the united states .", "from approximately 10000 species of decapod crustaceans described in the world , 88 are recorded in the present contribution as migrants - 58 from marine environments , 8 from freshwater - estuarine habitats and 21 are freshwater crayfishes - but still there may be others not yet recorded in the literature . these species have migrated through navigation channels , have been accidentally transported by ships , inadvertently imported with fishery products or introduced for aquaculture . it might be expected that the list would increase in the future .", "the effect of invading species on recipient communities could be direct , by displacement of native species or predation on other members of the community . indirectly they could affect the native species through introduction of diseases . up to the present severe damages have been rarely observed , for instance the destruction of rice fields in japan by procambarus clarkii ( laurent and forest , 1979 ) . but as the invasion into coastal zones , rivers and lakes progresses , we can expect the gradual displacement of native forms , with results impossible to foresee at present .", "the authors are grateful to jesus eloy conde and jon paul rodr\u00edguez for critically reading the manuscript .", "2 . abele lg ( 1972 ) introductions of two freshwater decapod crustaceans ( hymenosomatidae and atydae ) into central and north america .", "4 . aron wi , smith sh ( 1971 ) ship canals and aquatic ecosystems .", "5 . balss h ( 1927 ) bericht \u00fcber die crustacea decapoda ( natantia und anomura ) . zoological results of the cambridge expedition to the suez canal , 1924 . xiv .", "6 . balss h ( 1936 ) decapoda . in : the fishery grounds near alexandria . vii .", "8 . ben -

[ 7 ] , [ 8 ] ) . nevertheless , all rhynchocephalians but the most basal forms are characterized by a very specialized dentition pattern , in which the teeth are fully acrodont , no tooth replacement is present in post - hatchling individuals , and additional teeth are added at the posterior end of the tooth row during ontogeny [ 9 ] . although tooth shape itself is quite variable in rhynchocephalians [ 10 ] , this special type of tooth development was thought to limit their adaptive potential [ 11 ] . consequently , the demise of the group in the later mesozoic has been linked to the adaptive radiation of squamates and / or mammals ( see [ 5 ] ) .", "here we report on a new taxon of rhynchocephalian from the late jurassic of southern germany that further underlines the morphological and ecological diversity of rhynchocephalians and indicates high adaptive plasticity even in the dentitions of these animals . the specimen was found in the middle parts of the moernsheim formation exposed at m\u00fchlheim ( fig . 1 ) , in a section of platy , siliceous limestones overlying lime bank b - h - 5 ( \u201ckrebs - bank\u201d ) . the marine tithonian ( upper jurassic ) moernsheim formation covers the famous solnhofen lithographic limestones in the western region of the franconian alb in northern bavaria . in contrast to the underlying solnhofen formation , the sediments of the moernsheim formation are more heterogeneous , consisting of mainly siliceous limestones in alternate bedding with marly and limey sections , and with intercalated banks particularly in the lower parts of the formation .", "the data matrix was analysed with paup 4 . 0b10 ( swofford 2003 ) , using a branch and bound search . the initial analyses resulted in 119 trees with a length of 187 steps ( ci 0 . 465 , ri 0 . 649 , rc 0 . 302 ) . the strict consensus tree of these trees showed poor resolution , with oenosaurus representing a member of a polytomy of rhynchocephalians more derived than planocephalosaurus ( information s1 ) ; only pleurosaurs and eilenodontines showed up as monophyletic clades within this polytomy . however , reduced consensus trees of these 119 trees recovered a monophyletic sphenodontinae , including oenosaurus , but without further resolution within this clade ( information s1 ) .", "the electronic edition of this article conforms to the requirements of the amended international code of zoological nomenclature , and hence the new names contained herein are available under that code from the electronic edition of this article . this published work and the nomenclatural acts it contains have been registered in zoobank , the online registration system for the iczn . the zoobank lsids ( life science identifiers ) can be resolved and the associated information viewed through any standard web browser by appending the lsid to the prefix \u201c urltoken \u201d . the lsid for this publication is : urn : lsid : zoobank . org : pub : 4a00d064 - a136 - 4944 - af8e - 427b941fb38c . the electronic edition of this work was published in a journal with an issn , and has been archived and is available from the following digital repositories : pubmed central , lockss .", "urn : lsid : zoobank . org : act : 48c1ba32 - bc6d - 407d - 81e0 - 7ecff22d77a3", "urn : lsid : zoobank . org : act : 6648c44f - fdc0 - 48b2 - a6a9 - 399b17e07d38", "oenos , [ oinos ] greek , wine , referring to the franconian alb , a famous wine area , where the specimen was found , and saurus , [ sauros ] greek , lizard . species name refers to the village of m\u00fchlheim , close to m\u00f6rnsheim , at the rim of the valley of the altm\u00fchl in bavaria .", "bayerische staatssammlung f\u00fcr pal\u00e4ontologie und geologie , munich , germany , bspg 2009 i 23 ; partial skull and complete mandibles ( figs . 2 , 3 , 4 ) .", "( a ) \u2013skull in dorsal view .

[ 20 ] , [ 24 ] \u2013 [ 26 ] ) . there is no splenial .", "the postdentary bones are entirely restricted to the posterior half of the mandible . the surangular makes up the posterior margin of the ventral part of the coronoid process and continues posteriorly to the end of the mandible . the mandibular articulation is developed as a longitudinal dorsal ridge on the articular . the ridge is sharp - edged dorsally and slightly displaced to the lateral side . medially , it is flanked by a slightly anteroposteriorly concave medial bulge that becomes more pronounced posteriorly . this morphology is similar to the condition in derived rhynchocephalians , possibly indicating a propalinal movement of the lower jaw . the retroarticular process is short and stout . the medial side of the coronoid is thickened and forms a pronounced shelf below the tip of the coronoid process .", "the most unusual character of the new taxon is the dentition . unlike the situation in any other rhynchocephalian , broad tooth plates are present in both the maxillaries and dentaries . the maxillary tooth plates ( fig . 2b , f , 3a ) are broad posteriorly and narrow in their anterior half . they are 13 mm long and 4 mm wide at their widest part . the lateral edge of the tooth plates is slightly raised and shows a few small bumps . the dentary tooth plates are elongate and oval to subrectangular in outline , with a length of 13 mm and a maximum width of 3 . 5 mm . ct data shows that the central part of the tooth plate is placed in a broad depression on the dorsal surface of the mandible , though the tooth implantation can still be regarded as acrodont rather than protothecodont , as it is the case in some basal rhynchocephalians [ 27 ] .", "under closer inspection , the surfaces of the tooth plates show small , but clearly defined , round , oval , or angular subunits , made up of concentric dentine layers with a small central cavity ( fig . 3 ) . fine striations radiate outwards from the central cavity . micro ct - images of the dentary tooth plate show that these dentine tubes extend over the entire height of the plate ( fig . 4 ) . in the basal part , the central cavities become larger and form large , elongate cavities at the base of the tooth plate . in some instances , the central cavities of the dentine tubes bifurcate in their course from the base to the occlusal surface . tooth enamel seems to be absent , but the dentine tubes are tightly cemented together towards the occlusal surface . at the occlusal surface , the central cavities of the tubes also seem to be filled with cement . the dentine tubes are generally somewhat larger in the central parts of the tooth plate , but become smaller towards the margins ( fig . 3a ) . the dentine tubes reach further ventrally in the anterior part of the dentary than in the posterior part , which might indicate a later addition of posterior dentine tubes during ontogeny , as it is the case with individual teeth in other rhynchocephalians [ 9 ] .", "despite its apomorphic cranial morphology and highly unusual dentition , cladistic analysis ( see information s1 ) places oenosaurus well within the rhynchocephalia ( fig . 5 ) , because the taxon shows numerous synapomorphies of this clade and more exclusive ingroups , such s sphenodontia and sphenodontidae . these characters include a pronounced ridge or tooth row laterally on the palatine , a high coronoid process in the mandible , a posterior process of the dentary that extends posterior to the coronoid process , an enlarged mandibular foramen , the lack of a splenial , and an acrodont dentition [ 18 ] , [ 22 ] , [ 26 ] , [ 28 ] \u2013 [ 30 ] . within rhynchocephalians , oenosaurus even falls within the clade that includes the recent form , the sphenodontinae [ 5 ] , [ 24 ] , though support for this placement is weak ( see information s1 ) , and further material of this taxon ( and others , which , with the exception of sphenodon , are generally poorly known [ 5 ] ) might lead to changes in this part of the tree . nevertheless , the phylogenetic position of the new taxon within sphenodontidae ( sensu [ 24 ] ) is well supported .", "cladistic analysis of 70 osteological characters in 19 rhynchocephalian and two outgroup taxa resulted in the recovery of 2 trees with 184 steps ( see information s1 ) . a strict consensus tree shows oenosaurus well nested within sphenodontine rhynchocephalians , as a close relative to the recent sphenodon . 1 , rhynchocephalia ; 2 , sphenodontinae .", "an interesting problem is the evolution of these tooth plates . the phylogenetic position of oenosaurus shows that this taxon is well nested within taxa that have the specialized acrodont dentition typical for sphenodontids . the very peculiar plates are therefore derived from such a dentition and demonstrate a surprising evolutionary plasticity of such a seemingly highly specialized tooth anlage [ 9 ] . a possible , but currently untestable , hypothesis of the evolution of these tooth plates might be that they formed by fusion and modification of the hatchling dentition , which consists of small , peg - like teeth with active tooth replacement in several rhynchocephalians [ 41 ] , including the modern sphenodon [ 42 ] , [ 43 ] . however , further studies and , possibly , further discoveries of this or other taxa with similar dentitions are necessary to test this hypothesis .", "despite their specialized dentition , rhynchocephalians are quite variable in their tooth morphology . rhynchocephalian teeth can be referred to three basic functional types [ 10 ] : basal forms usually have small , conical teeth that are mainly used for piercing , most sphenodontids have anteroposteriorly elongate teeth that are used for cutting and slicing , and opisthodontians [ 18 ] have transversely expanded teeth capable of grinding and shredding . these different tooth types can roughly be equated with insectivory , generalized carnivory ( or piscivory , in the marine pleurosaurs ) , and herbivory , respectively [ 10 ] . the tooth plates of oenosaurus now demonstrate a further type of dentition in rhynchocephalians , a crushing dentition , indicating a durophagous diet . therefore , the new taxon adds a further trophic adaptation and a previously unknown ecotype to the already recognized ecological diversity of mesozoic rhynchocephalians [ 10 ] .", "character list , data matrix , analytical procedures , consensus trees , and list of synapomorphies at internal nodes for the cladistic analysis mentioned in the text .", "we thank roland p\u00f6schl , who found the fossil , and the owners and operators of the krautworst naturstein quarry , ulrich leonhardt , roland p\u00f6schl and uwe krautworst , for donating the specimen to the bspg . ulrich leonhardt , stefan s\u00f3nyi , and renate liebreich are thanked for preparation of the fossil . the paper benefited from discussions with marc jones and alexander n\u00fctzel . furthermore , critical comments by marc jones and nick fraser considerably helped to improve the paper . ct scans were carried out at the steinmann institute of the university of bonn with the help of irina ruf , which is greatly appreciated .", "conceived and designed the experiments : owmr amh ala ah . performed the experiments : owmr ala . analyzed the data : owmr ala . contributed reagents / materials / analysis tools : amh ah . wrote the paper : owmr amh ala .", "evans se , jones meh ( 2010 ) the origins , early history and diversification of lepidosauromorph reptiles . in bandyopadhyay s , editor . new aspects of mesozoic biodiversity . lecture notes in earth sciences . springer berlin / heidelberg . pp . 22\u201344 .", "ung cy -

h - 5 ( \u201ckrebs - bank\u201d ) . the marine tithonian ( upper jurassic ) moernsheim formation covers the famous solnhofen lithographic limestones in the western region of the franconian alb in northern bavaria . in contrast to the underlying solnhofen formation , the sediments of the moernsheim formation are more heterogeneous , consisting of mainly siliceous limestones in alternate bedding with marly and limey sections , and with intercalated banks particularly in the lower parts of the formation .", ") is considerably better resolved than that resulting from the full analysis , but , importantly , it does not contradict the results of the latter , neither in the strict consensus , nor in any reduced consensus tree . thus , we chose these results to illustrate and further explore the relationships of oenosaurus . bootstrap ( 10000 replicates ) and bremer support analyses were carried out on the pruned matrix , and the following list of synapomorphies is based on the strict consensus tree resulting from the pruned analysis .", "was preserved in ventral view , with the mandibles slightly displaced from the upper jaws . the skull is diagenetically dorsoventrally compressed and much of the dorsal skull roof is missing , as is the roof of the braincase . however , enough is preserved to record the general shape of the skull and the position and size of the orbitae (", "the skull seems to have been rather robust . as preserved , it is 24 . 3 mm long . unfortunately , the exact skull length cannot be determined , since the premaxillae are missing , but these bones probably did not account for more than an additional 2\u20133 mm . thus , the skull was slightly broader ( 28 mm ) than long , as in many rhynchocephalians , but unlike the slender , elongate skull of the marine pleurosaurs", ". premaxillae and nasals are missing . the frontals are elongate and narrow , and flanked by the prefrontals anterolaterally (", ") . there is no trace of a lacrimal , though it cannot be ruled out completely that this might be due to preservation . the posterior part of the skull roof is poorly preserved and nothing can be said about the shape and size of the temporal fenestrae . a small fragment of the parietals shows that these bones were fused and formed a narrow sagittal crest medially . the postfrontals and postorbitals formed a broad shelf anterior to the dorsal temporal fenestra . the jugal was broad and reached anteriorly to almost half - length of the orbit . the maxillae are massive and broad , but rapidly narrow anteriorly . posteriorly , the maxilla has a stout lateral process for the contact with the jugal and a smaller medial process that slots into the forked lateral process of the ectopterygoid .", ") . the vomers were small . their posterior ends separate the anterior ends of the palatines , but do not reach the pterygoids posteriorly , so that the palatines meet at the midline . such a midline contact of the palatines was illustrated for the marine pleurosaurs by carroll and wild", ", but not described in the text , and the line of contact is dotted in their reconstruction , so that some uncertainty of the condition in these animals remains . the palatines contact the maxillae laterally in a broad suture at about one third of the length of the latter bone , and form the posterior border of the internal choanae . the bones flank the pterygoids laterally over most of the length of the anterior process of the latter bone , taper posteriorly , and end a short way posterior to the posterior end of the maxillae . as in all sphenodontids , there is a raised ridge along the lateral edge of the posterior half of the palatines , but , due to preservation , it is uncertain if this ridge bore teeth , as it is the case in most taxa", ", the ridge diverges from the maxillary posteriorly and is more or less parallel to the midline of the skull . the pterygoids taper anteriorly and broaden abruptly posteriorly towards the ventrolaterally extending pterygoid wings . there is no interpterygoid vacuity , but the pterygoids form a midline suture up to the basicranial articulation . posteriorly , the slender , but well - developed , quadrate wings of the pterygoids diverge away from the ventral side of the braincase . a small fragment of bone lateral to the remnants of the left quadrate wing of the pterygoid might represent a remain of the pterygoid wing of the quadrate . unlike basal rhynchocephalians , there are no teeth on the pterygoid . no suture between the quadrate wing of the pterygoid and the pterygoid wing of the quadrate is visible in the preserved portions , so the latter bone , which is not preserved , might have had a rather short pterygoid wing .", "the ectopterygoid attaches anterolaterally to the pterygoid wing . it is unusual in that it has two lateral processes , one that contacts the posterior end of the maxilla , as in other rhynchocephalians , and a more anterior one that extends anterolaterally lateral to the palatine and contacts the medial side of the maxilla (", ") . this process forms the posterior border of the suborbital fenestra , which is surrounded by the palatine , maxilla , and ectopterygoid . thus , the pterygoid is excluded from the rim of this fenestra , as in many other sphenodontids , but not more basal rhynchocephalians . in contrast to clevosaurs", "there is no contact between the palatine and the ectopterygoid lateral to the fenestra . together with the medial process of the maxilla , the secondary anterolateral process frames a large foramen lateral to the palatine ridge .", "the lower jaw is 33 mm long and is especially notable for its high coronoid process , which exceeds the tooth row by approximately 8 . 7 mm in the right mandible and is thus almost 1 . 5 times higher than the body of the dentary (", ") . the dentary accounts for most of the length of the mandible , and , as in all rhynchocephalians , a posteroventral process of the dentary reaches posteriorly beyond the coronoid process to the level of the anterior margin of the mandibular articulation . a large incision in the posterodorsal margin of the dentary marks the enlarged mandibular foramen ("]}

diving seabirds whose primary prey are small schooling fish and large zooplankton . however , coastal , old - growth coniferous forests are used for nesting in much of their range . like many alcids , marbled murrelets do not build nests and instead rely on naturally deposited materials for a nest platform . unlike other alcids , however , in the marbled murrelet a single egg is typically laid directly on a large , mossy limb in the forest canopy . in most cases , only large , old trees have limbs of sufficient diameter for these unusual nests .", "the marbled murrelet ( brachyramphus marmoratus ) is a small pacific seabird listed as threatened under the endangered species act in california , oregon and washington . all population surveying efforts to date have concluded that the listed population exhibits a long - term downward trend . in the past decade , marbled murrelet populations have decreased by 27 % throughout the listed population ' s range with a more alarming 45 % decline in the state of washington . threats to the marbled murrelet include loss of habitat from commercial timber harvest , nest predation , gill - net fishing operations , oil spills , and marine pollution . the usfws is working with other federal , state , and tribal agencies and private landowners and university researchers to recover the marbled murrelet . for more information on this threatened species , please visit the following usfws websites : urltoken urltoken urltoken we strive to make our electronic and information technology accessible to all . please email us at fw1webmaster @ urltoken if you need the text of this video .", "marbled murrelets ( brachyramphus marmoratus ) nest predominantly in the canopies of large old - growth conifers , and are listed as threatened in canada and three u . s . states mainly as a consequence of reductions in this habitat owing to logging . we assessed the re - use of nest sites ( nest trees ) by murrelets in british columbia using three types of data : ( 1 ) evidence of return of adults to the same nest site , ( 2 ) evidence of multiple nests within the same tree , and ( 3 ) re - checking known nest trees in subsequent seasons for evidence of re - use . all three methods showed evidence of re - use of nest trees in different years , but there were marked regional differences in the degree of re - use . re - use of nest trees was most frequent in regions with extensive loss of nesting habitat due to logging ( southern mainland coast and east vancouver island ) , and rare in a less disturbed region ( west vancouver island ) . overall , 26 of 143 ( 18 percent ) nest trees climbed showed evidence of multiple nesting in separate seasons . management of nesting habitat should incorporate these results by providing greater protection of habitat in regions where habitat is sparse , and by minimizing predation risk where murrelets more frequently re - use nest sites . because re - use of nest sites is infrequent , managers should aim to provide murrelets with multiple choices for nest sites , such as maintaining large tracts of old - growth forest with many large trees containing potential nest platforms .", "the marbled murrelet ( brachyramphus marmoratus ) is a declining seabird that is well - known for nesting in coastal old - growth forests in the pacific northwest . most studies of habitat selection have focused on modeling terrestrial nesting habitat even though marine habitat is believed to be a major contributor to population declines in some regions . to address this information gap , we conducted a 5 - year study of marine resource selection by murrelets in washington , which contains a population experiencing the steepest documented declines and where marine habitat is believed to be compromised . across five years we tracked 157 radio - tagged murrelets during the breeding season ( may to august ) , and used discrete choice models to examine habitat selection . using an information theoretic approach , our global model had the most support , suggesting that murrelet resource selection at - sea is affected by many factors , both terrestrial and marine . locations with higher amounts of nesting habitat ( \u03b2 = 21 . 49 , p < 0 . 001 ) that were closer to shore ( \u03b2 = - 0 . 0007 , p < 0 . 001 ) and in cool waters ( \u03b2 = - 0 . 2026 , p < 0 . 001 ) with low footprint ( \u03b2 = - 0 . 0087 , p < 0 . 001 ) had higher probabilities of use . while past conservation efforts have focused on protecting terrestrial nesting habitat , we echo many past studies calling for future efforts to protect marine habitat for murrelets , as the current emphasis on terrestrial habitat alone may be insufficient for conserving populations . in particular , marine areas in close proximity to old - growth nesting habitat appear important for murrelets during the breeding season and should be priorities for protection .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "we use cookies to enhance your experience on our website . by continuing to use our website , you are agreeing to our use of cookies . you can change your cookie settings at any time .", "welcome to oed online . if you or your library subscribes , dive straight in to the riches of the english language . if not , click on the images below to learn more about the oed , see what ' s new , or take a look at aspects of english , our language feature section .", "this year sees the 90th anniversary of the publication of the completed first edition of the oxford english dictionary . find out more about our birthday celebrations >", "which english words are used where you are ? help us add more regional words to the dictionary . submit your word >", "what ' s new : more than 900 new words , senses , and subentries have been added to the oxford english dictionary in our latest update , including binge -

successional , and old - growth forests on federal lands in washington , oregon , and california . unfortunately , despite these conservation efforts decades ago , multiple studies have reported continued population declines [ 3 \u2013 5 ] . there has been much discussion in the scientific literature about whether these declines are due to losses in nesting habitat that have continued on private lands and / or changes to marine habitat . raphael et al .

pv 499 within archosauromorpha is supported by the presence of a non - notochordal vertebra ( fig . 4 ) . this character is present in several basal reptiliomorphs ( e . g . , tseajaia campi vaughn , 1964 : moss , 1972 ) , parareptiles ( e . g . , milleropsis pricei ( watson , 1957 reisz , 1981 ; araeoscelis gracilis williston , 1910 : vaughn , 1955 acerosodontosaurus piveteaui currie , 1980 broom , 1905b : sam -

taxon of sauria ) . the low number of additional steps to move crilar - pv 499 to a more basal position among diapsids is expected because of its fragmentary condition and the low number of characters scored for the specimen ( four scorings , see supplementary online information ) . . . .", ". . . in addition , the neurocentral suture is obliterated , suggesting that the animal was not a juvenile at the time of its death [ 110 ] , and that the presence of an open notochordal canal is therefore not a result of an early ontogenetic stage . the persistence of an open notochordal canal in a non - juvenile individual resembles the condition in multiple lineages of basal reptiliomorphs , parareptiles , basal synapsids , basal sauropsids , basal lepidosauromorphs , and the new archosauromorph species aenigmastropheus parringtoni from the late permian of tanzania ( [ 48 , 70 , 119 , 128 129 130131132133134 , see below ) . the anterior and posterior articular surfaces of the centrum are wider than tall . . . .", ". . . the former nomen has seen slightly less usage ( e . g . watson , 1957 ; kuhn -

seine , 1955 ; tatarinov , 1964a ; etc . ) ; or to early diapsids , such as eosuchians ( kuhn - schnyder , 1963 ) ; or they were considered to be of uncertain origin ( watson , 1957 ) . the hypotheses of the origin of sauropterygians from theromorph reptiles ( huene , 1944huene , , 1956 ) or directly from labyrinthodonts or even crossopterygians ( kuhn -

produced , posteriorly curved teeth are found in the saccopharyngidae , with the other three families possessing small to minute teeth in the jaws .", "except for the enlarged head and mouth structure , the rest of the body of these fishes is elongated and very slender ( filamentous in eurypharyngids and saccopharyngids ) . the body coloration varies from scattered pigment patches to a light uniform brown in monognathids , with dark brown to solid black in cyematids , eurypharyngids , and saccopharyngids . thin white lines of unknown function extend from the head to the tail along the upper body in the saccopharyngids and eurypharyngids , and individuals in both families have luminous bulbs at the very tip of the filamentous tail . the filament may constitute 50 % or more of the overall length of the fish . overall lengths of the substantial part of the body in all saccopharyngiforms is small , not exceeding 19 . 6 in ( 50 cm ) .", "these are primarily bathypelagic inhabitants , with the majority of adult specimens being collected at depths greater than 3 , 280 ft ( 1 , 000 m ) . larvae and juveniles live in shallower waters , even into the upper mesopelagic zone below 656 ft ( 200 m ) .", "owing to the extreme depths at which these fishes live , there are few reports of any behavior .", "all saccopharyngiform species are poor swimmers at best . there have been no reports on feeding in the cyematids , but it is thought that eurypharyngids and saccopharyngids draw prey close to them by means of luminescent lures on their tails and then quickly open their mouths to suck food in . saccopharyngids are piscivorous ( eat only other fish ) ; eurypharyngids take a broader range of fish and invertebrate prey . an even more unusual form of feeding has been postulated for monognathids . it is thought that their prey ( crustaceans ) may be lured by scent released from glands around the mouth ; when they come close enough , the fish bite them by means of a hollow fang in the mouth that injects venom , much like a rattlesnake . the fish then swallows the dead or dying shrimp whole . little is known about the predators that feed in members of this order .", "there are no known conservation measures specific to these families . no species from either family is listed on the iucn red list .", "owing to their rarity and poorly studied biological characteristics , no significance can be attributed to saccopharyngiforms . they are objects of curiosity because of their extreme body specializations .", "cyema atrum g\u00fcnther , 1878 , south pacific , challenger station 1 , 770 ft ( 539 m ) ; antarctic , challenger station 948 ; 9 , 000 ; and 10 , 800 ft ( 289 ; 2 , 743 ; and 3 , 292 m ) .", "english : bobtail eel , deepwater eel ; danish : korthalet \u00e5l ; finnish : nuoliankerias .", "this species has a rather striking appearance that is quite different from that of other saccopharyngiforms . adults are black in coloration . this species is scaleless , like all members of the order . the eyes are very small . the jaws are thin and long , with numerous very fine teeth , and the jaws curve slightly away from each other at their tips . the dorsal and anal fin rays become progressively more elongated toward the rear of the body and extend well past very short caudal rays ; the effect is that in side view the fish looks like an arrow ! it is a small species , with a maximum reported size of about 6 . 3 in ( 160 mm ) .", "it has been reported from all oceans between about 70\u00b0 north and 55\u00b0 south . most collections have been from the atlantic and pacific oceans .", "the species is oceanic , lower mesopelagic to bathypelagic . although it has been reported from collections made as shallow as 1 , 148 ft ( 350 m ) , most records are from depths exceeding 4 , 921 ft ( 1 , 500 m ) .", "there has been little research on the feeding habits of this eel . because of its jaw structure , it is suggested that the species feeds on comparable prey types and in a fashion similar to that of the anguilliform eels of the family nemichthyidae , commonly known as snipe eels . nemichthyids use their thin , recurved jaws to feed on crustacean shrimps , especially those in the family sergestidae . predators of this species are unknown .", "unlike the other saccopharyngiforms , there is no apparent sexual dimorphism in adults . no other reproductive data have been reported for this species . the leptocephalus stage is rather distinctive ; the deep oval body has a very small pointed head and a pointed caudal extension . these features grow a bit larger than in other saccopharyngiform leptocephali , with a maximum recorded total length of 2 . 8 in ( 70 mm ) .", "eurypharynx pelecanoides vaillant , 1882 , off new england , united states , about 40\u00b0n , 68\u00b0w , 3 albatross stations , 2 , 334\u20138 , 802 ft ( 711\u20132 , 683 m ) .", "english : big mouth gulper eel , pelican gulper , pelican gulper fish , pelican fish , deep -

since even approximate estimates can be used to explain biogeographical history [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] , [ 62 ] , [ 63 ] .", "as judged by scattered sampling locations , several thousand kilometres apart , several populations of hydrocynus share haplotypes across vast distances in the congo basin ( table s1 , figure 2 ) . this indicates that these populations ( representing h . goliath and h . vittatus

restrict fish dispersal ( e . g . kisangani falls and portes d ' enfer on the lualaba river ) [ 17 ] , [ 60 ] . nevertheless , it is interesting how knickpoints in the luvua river [ fl\u00fcgel et al . unpublished data ] can be invoked to have prevented upstream dispersal of h . goliath and h . vittatus into lake mweru , yet group c appears to have dispersed downstream through the luvua ( as represented by its occurrence across the congo basin , figures 2 and 3 ) . at least in the case of hydrocynus group d , the demonstration of shared haplotypes across the zambian congo drainage system corroborates bell - cross ' s [ 6 ] hypothesis that waterfalls on the luapula river ( linking the formerly isolated lakes bangweulu and mweru ) no longer restrict fish dispersal entirely ( figure 3 ) .", "hydrocynus forskahlii is a pelagic , potamodromous species that forms shoals . it is an open water predator often found near the water surface ( bell - cross and minshull 1988 ) and feeds on fishes , preferring long bodied fish as they are easier to swallow and also takes insects , shrimps , grass and snails ( bell - cross and minshull 1988 ) . this species is cannibalistic . it is preyed upon by fish eagle haliaeetus vocifer ( bell - cross and minshull 1988 ) . breeding migrations have been reported up several tributaries of lake kariba during the rains ( bell - cross and minshull 1988 ) . spawning takes place most of the year .", "the pliocene cladogenic event at 3 . 9 ( ci : 6 . 9\u20131 . 6 ) ma isolated group a in the congo basin from the clade today represented by h .

started between 4\u201312 ma , with an apparent focus around 5 . 5 ma [ 36 ] , [ 65 ] , [ 69 ] , [ 70 ] . this event in hydrocynus is interpreted as vicariance of a formerly contiguous drainage system that linked the eastern congo basin to the tanzanian plateau . association of this event in hydrocynus , with initiation of the rifting that formed lake tanganyika overlaps with estimated timings for three lacustrine radiations : in synodontis catfish in the late miocene at 5 . 5 ( ci 7 . 3\u20134 . 0 ) ma [ 71 ] , mastacembelus eels at 7\u20138 ( ci 10 . 6\u20135 . 5 ) ma [ 72 ] and platythelphusid crabs conservatively dated at 3 . 3\u20132 . 5 ma in the late pliocene [ 73 ] . the disruption of the former east - west drainage system , archived as a cladogenic event in these extant hydrocynus , therefore slightly postdates the geologically - dated tectonic uplift in this region of the east african rift . nevertheless , despite significant uncertainty in geological dates , together with the wide error on molecular dates , there is a remarkable agreement between the geological - and biological - clocks to support strong linkages between the tectonic and cladogenic events . initiation of this rifting that formed lake tanganyika has recently been reappraised to \u223c5 . 5 ma [ 36 ] , [ 69 ] , [ 70 ] , and it constitutes the plausible mechanism that disrupted a former east - west drainage system to isolate the tanzanian plateau from the eastern congo basin . the lukuga and malagarasi rivers are possibly extant vestiges of the former contiguous river ( figure 3 ) .", "hydrocynus goliath is the largest species of atf and the one that most people go searching for when they first try to get one . these things have attained huge popularity thanks to their inclusion in an episode of river monsters with jeremy wade . these are probably the most sought after species , and as such are the most misidentified species . this is because the shippers in africa know that goliath fetches the highest prices and often willfully mislabel their fish as goliath when they know full well the fish aren ' t actually gatf . distributors will then sell the fish as whatever their distributor tells them it is , which invariably confuses the customers . there are three apparent varieties of hydrocynus goliath in the hobby . a faster growing population that is thicker bodied with a longer , flatter dead ; a slower growing variety that is thinner bodied , more torpedo shaped with a more conical head ; and a rumored black variety . there are credible reports of all black gatf existing , but are exceedingly rare . based on my conversations with douglas dann in 2013 , it appears as though the greatest preponderance of black gatf came from what he called the black river in the war torn region between the democratic republic of the congo and the republic of the congo . the increasing political unrest is why he left the country , and could explain the lack of black specimens in the hobby . \u200b", "phylogenies of hydrocynus using the cyt b data set were constructed in beast 1 . 4 . 8 package [ 41 ] , mrbayes 3 . 1 . 1 [ 42 ] and paup 4 . 0b10 [ 43 ] , using the gtr model parameters for each data set . however , only the beast data are presented and discussed . beast uses bayesian inference and a mcmc sampling procedure to reconstruct a phylogeny by estimating the probability distribution given sequence data [ 41 ] , [ 42 ] . this algorithm weights trees in proportion to their posterior probability , such that a branch with a posterior probability close to 1 is considered well supported , whereas a value close to 0 is considered very weakly supported .", "hydrocynus vittatus is known from most of sub - saharan africa from senegal to ethiopia , and south to south africa . central africa : hydrocynus vittatus is found throughout the congo river basin . in lower guinea , it is found in the cross and sanaga basins . eastern africa : this species is known from lake tanganyika and major affluent rivers , including malagarasi river , as well as lake albert and murchison nile , lake turkana ( seegers et al . 2003 ) and lake rukwa . it is also present in the lower shire river , rufigi and ruaha rivers . according to hopson and hopson ( 1982 ) in the turkana basin this species is principally riverine and ecological changes in the lake level have tended to inhibit incursions of h . vittatus into the lake . however , an erroneous identification by worthington and ricardo ( 1936 ) for h . forskahlii is also possible . in the latter case h . vittatus most likely does not occur in kenya ( seegers et al . 2004 ) . northeast africa : it is present in the ghazal and jebel systems , white and blue niles , and nile to lake nasser ( also known as lake nubia ) . southern africa : it occurs in the zambezi and okavango ( but not the kafue or lake malawi ) , south to the save , limpopo and phongolo systems ( skelton 2001 ) . it has also been found in lake kariba ( losse 1998 ) . western africa : in west africa , this species occurs in the basins of the chad , niger / benue , ou\u00e9m\u00e9 , and senegal .", "this map was

and only an attentive examination makes it possible to differentiate them . they have a torpedo form , which they use to their advantage of nourishing itself , since they continuously chase their prey . the fish are generally silver plated and brilliant . the scales are marked with a dark spot , thus forming especially visible parallel stripes above the side line . according to certain species ' , these lines are more or less dark . the dorsal fin is inserted into the same level as the ventral fins or a little ahead . the mouth is armed with only one series of teeth , very developed and sharp , on each jaw . the eye is almost entirely covered with a fat eyelid .", "hydrocynus forskahlii is very unique among the african tiger fishes in that it is probably the only one that is actually suitable to be kept in an aquarium , which is a very good thing as they are one of the most readily available species as well . they are truly a dwarf species , at least when compared to the monsters that the other four species can become . these fish can be kept for life in a tank that is as small as a 180 , though they ' d probably be happier with the extra room to swim in a 240 . forskahlii are also a very attractive and colorful species , generally having the same color patterns as a vittatus . these fish also tend to have fairly dramatic teeth for their size . there is a fair amount of variation in the morphology of forskahlii as there are two distinct genetic populations awaiting scientific description . \u200b", "mismatch distributions [ 100 ] , [ 101 ] , [ 102 ] , the distributions of the observed number of differences between pairs of haplotypes , were used to quantify historical changes in population size in the hydrocynus lineages . a unimodal (

anal fin has 3 soft , unbranched rays and usually 12 branched rays . the dorsal profile of the head is straight . the depth of the body in adults is 19 . 4 to 32 . 7 percent of the length , with an average of 23 percent . the length of the head is 19 . 2 to 23 . 1 percent of the total length . the teeth can have between 12 - 20 in the upper jaw and 8 - 14 in the lower jaw . this wide variation is due to their having several small teeth that may or may not protrude through the gums near the back of the mouth . these fish are silvery in color with a red tail that most often only has color on the lower lobe . coloration will often be washed out in extremely young individuals . \u200b", "except for hydrocynus goliath , batf has the least developed striping of all members of the genus . 3 -

13 in the lower jaw . batf have a golden or dusky base color with tan or grey paired fins . the adipose fin is often very large in relation to the other atf species . their caudal fin has a base of dark gray with a very dark red lower lobe . coloration will often be washed out in extremely young individuals . coloration will often be washed out in extremely young individuals . \u200b", "in this respect , the boundaries of the congo basin are of focal interest , because these watersheds were forged by diastrophism and / or epeirogeny . the northern , eastern and southern boundaries of this basin are the cameroon rift and central african thrust zone [ 31 ] , [ 32 ] , the east african rift system ( ears ) and southern equatorial divide [ 33 ] . moreover , geochronological evidence for the central african thrust zone and albertine rift ( western arm of the ears ) reliably constrains when volcanism and tectonism formed these hydrological boundaries around the congo basin . so it delimits when first and second order rivers of this basin were redirected and / or impounded by faulting and uplift events ( figure 2 ) . therefore we can employ phylogeographic statistics to test whether or not evolutionary events in hydrocynus were coupled with this drainage disruption , linked with propagation of rifting across the african plate ( exemplified by the formation of lake tanganyika ) [ 12 ] , [ 34 ] , [ 35 ] , [ 36 ] .", "fatf have pronounced stripes . they have two scales between the lateral line and the pelvic fin insertion , as opposed to 3 - 4 for a brevis . they have a lateral

it is unclear if this applies to cf . \" stout vatf \" . mature males had bright yellow caudal fins with bright red markings on the bottom lobe . mature females had bright orange caudal fins . \u200b", "a measure of genealogical sorting is important to assess differentiation of genetic variation between and within species . the genealogical sorting index ( gsi ) [ 47 ] quantifies the degree of exclusive ancestry of groups of individuals on a rooted phylogenetic tree . this statistic was used to quantify the common ancestry of cyt b sequences of hydrocynus in an interspecific context . a gsi value of 1 represents a monophyletic group , while a group of completely mixed genealogical ancestry will have a gsi value of 0 . beyond qualitative assessments of lineage history and orthodox statistical tests of nodal support ( including bootstrapping ) in phylogenetic reconstruction [ 47 ] , gsi is an informative statistic because it enables explicit testing of roles of hypothesized paleo - environmental controls ( in this study drainage rearrangements and tectonism ) , by determining the levels of differentiation among lineages ; and since individuals can be assigned to groups on criteria of sampling locality , gsi enables structured tests of candidate determinants of the history of different populations . the null hypothesis will expect genealogical admixture across lineages that manifest in low gsi statistics , so correctly rejecting inappropriate candidates as biogeographical determinants . all analyses were run on the gsi website [ 99 ] . the groups in the assignment file for the cyt b gsi analysis were set according to species and evolutionary lineage and , in order to test for structuring by drainage system , h . vittatus samples were grouped based on the drainage system within which they were sampled . a newick version of the beast tree was used in the analysis . the number of bootstrap replications conducted was 10 000 .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", ", select family and click on ' identification by pictures ' to display all available pictures in fishbase for the family .", ", select country and click on ' identification by pictures ' to display all available pictures in fishbase for the country .", ", select ecosystem and click on ' identification by pictures ' to display all available pictures in fishbase for the ecosystem .", "cfm script by eagbayani , 30 . 11 . 04 , , php script by cmilitante , 05 / 11 / 2010 , last modified by cmilitante , 14 / 03 / 2013", "your igfa account is your personal portal to member benefits , including world records , videos , photos , and the latest in game fish conservation .", "the international game fish association is a not - for - profit organization committed to the conservation of game fish and the promotion of responsible , ethical angling practices through science , education , rule making and record keeping .", "\u00a9 2015 international game fish association , 300 gulf stream way , dania beach , fl 33004 .", "researchers have had the pleasure to examine a rare occurrence in the animal kingdom , with footage of an african tigerfish leaping from the water to snatch a bird in flight .", "according to time , the footage is the first to capture this phenomenon , which has been known to happen since the 1940s . the fish has been known to catch birds as they are stationary or moving slowly , but in the video , the tigerfish snatches a swallow , known to be quick and agile in the air .", "watch the video below , but pay close attention , the tigerfish strikes extremely quickly .", "\" the whole action of jumping and catching the swallow in flight happens so incredibly quickly that after we first saw it , it took all of us a while to really fully comprehend what we had just seen , \" nico smit , director of the unit for environmental sciences and management at north - west university in south africa , told nature . \" the first reaction was one of pure joy , because we realized that we were spectators to something really incredible and unique . \"", "the authors of a study published in the journal of fish biology said this is the first video evidence of a freshwater fish preying on a bird in flight . unconvinced of the rumored capabilities of these tigerfish , smit and his team took to a south african lake in the mapungubwe national park to examine their migration habitat .", "the researchers said they saw as many as 20 successful mid - air strikes per day .", "\" the african tigerfish is one of the most amazing freshwater species in the world , \" said smit , a study co - author , told bbc news . \" it is a striking fish with beautiful markings on the body , bright red fins and vicious teeth . \""]}

new ideas , and they can even make their own field . also for me this collaboration is quite attractive , and has encouraged me a lot to establish my own vision .", "we work on the development of biologically inspired catalysts and their application for energy harvesting and environmental conservation systems . specifically , we attempt to exploit the nature\u2019s ingenuities of multi - electron catalytic reaction , electron / proton transport , metabolic regulation , flexible response to external stimuli , and the robust energy management in a deep sea environment to develop the novel materials and systems necessary for the effective management of renewable energy sources . there are three areas for our research :", "fig . 2 chimney : giant electrochemical fuel cell sustained by magmatic activity ? the chemical potential and temperature gradient across the chimney generates electrical current , which trigger abiotic co 2 reduction and may sustain the ecosystems of the chimney .", "in 2010 we published the first paper about electricity generation in the deep sea hydrothermal vent ( ref . 1 ) . we were the first to propose and demonstrate that a black smoker chimney acts as an electrochemical fuel cell that can convert the energy stored in the earth\u2019s interior to electricity ( fig . 2 ) .", "our research has also inspired another field of the origin of life ( ref . 2 ) . this field has a quite long history , and the difficult point of this field is that we always have to investigate about the past events occurred billions of years ago . so , in order to get to the conclusive point of view , a broad range of understanding in physical chemistry , biology , and geology are required to understand the framework .", "but always the problem has been that for some ( sub ) surface regions in the deep sea there is no recognizable energy input . there is no sunlight . there is no energy to sustain the bacterial activity we see . so people are looking for what is the energy source to sustain such an abundant biomass in the sub sea floor . so i am quite sure that this source has become the electron . now in the field of earth science people started to recognize electro - microbiology , and the electrochemical fuel cell in the deep ocean as a kind of power and engine to maintain the microbial activity .", "we think that this energy creation found in the deep sea electro - ecosystem could have been one of the sources to kick - off the origin of life . the gradient of redox and temperature around a chimney creates electrical energy , which could kick off chemical evolution . this type of electrical energy might be the third type of ecosystem , in addition to chemosynthesis and photosynthesis , to drive microbial life ( fig . 3 / ref . 4 ) .", "fig . 3 ecosystems sustained by geo - electricity decoupling of electron and heat transfer can generate the high energy electron that has almost the same electrochemical potential generatedby photosynthesis .", "i want to know how nature got accustomed to the different environments , and how organisms in nature overcame such quite difficult situations by changing their metabolism or changing their genome . for example , it is as if chimney minerals have such an advanced knowledge of physics : they can convert chemical energy to electricity , and electricity to chemical energy . such an amazing function can be a key to generate high energy electrons , for triggering co 2 fixation , and nitrogen fixation in the ancient deep sea .", "we also found another amazing aspect of chimney minerals : by analyzing the samples of minerals from the deep sea and investigating the function of them with dr . takao mori of national institute for materials science , we found that they transfer electrons efficiently , but not heat energy ( ref . 3 ) . it represents a newly recognized system for energy - harvesting in nature , based on the decoupling of electron transfer and heat transfer . no one would imagine this ! i would say that at the hydrothermal vent the difference of chemical potential and temperature is converted to electrical current , and if proton motive force exists , a hydrothermal vent can generate reductive energy almost identical with that of photo - excited photosynthesis ii . this is a new scenario to bridge deep - sea ecosystem and photosynthesis in terms of energetics for carbon fixation , and recently published in a book chapter ( ref . 4 ) . this is one of our original discoveries and can be a basis for examining the relationship between modern technology and ancient one in respect to heat and electrical use .", "the next challenge for us is to test our hypothesis on the newly understood type of bacteria called \u201celectrotrophs\u201d in which co 2 fixation is triggered by electrons taken from minerals or electrodes .", "scientists in the usa ( prof . kenneth nealson and prof . derek lovely ) noticed that certain bacteria transferred electron from some minerals like iron oxide or manganese oxide , as a process for their respiration . those findings were the starting point of the new field of electro - microbiology . usually we need oxygen for respiration , and mitochondria plays a role . but even without oxygen some bacteria eat minerals to maintain their atp synthesis . some portion of bacteria , archaea and animals depend on this kind of energy metabolism .", "the current goal of our research is to prove the concept of such \u201celectro - ecosystems\u201d both by lab experiments and on - site deep - sea experiments ( fig . 4 /", ") . people will recognize the importance of this field soon . electron life might be a nice running title -

red bill and huge pink feet . the cheeks , head and neck are gray , while the crown , forehead , breast and mantle are dark brown to chestnut . the belly and underparts are black .", "although swans and geese are mostly white , brown , and black , many ducks showcase several shades of grays , browns , and blacks combined with fine barring and streaking to result in a variety of beautifully patterned plumages for which females of the species are well known . males in breeding plumage are more boldly patterned and often have iridescent blue or green on the head . both sexes usually show a spot of color in the wing known as a \" speculum \" .", "female usually lays 12 to 16 whitish eggs , one per day . incubation lasts about 12 to 16 days , shared by both parents . precocial chicks are yellow with black spots . they leave the nest very soon after hatching , within two days , and they are able to feed themselves . but they remain with parents for up to two months . at this time , they can fly . however , they may remain in family groups for up to six months . this species produces only one brood per season , sometimes two if first is lost .", "they form lifelong pairs and breed during the first year of their lives . the males spar by chasing each other and using a threat display . pairs usually form in winter and the females often lay eggs in the nests of other whistling - ducks . they usually nest in tree hallows , but have been known to use nest boxes and nest on the ground . interestingly enough , they do not typically build a nest . instead they lay their eggs on whatever is already in the location they chose . the eggs are white and there are typically 9 - 18 eggs in a clutch .", "don\u2019t know if this one has been mentioned or not , but i was wondering about subspecific variation in black - whiskered vireo ( ? ) . the nominate subspecies ( vireo altiloquus altiloquus ) seems very distinctive in plumage coloration and bill size / shape to me compared to the coastal florida form v . a . barbatulus . i believe the nominate subspecies occurs as a causal spring vagrant along the gulf coast with records from louisiana and nw florida panhandle ( st . george island ) . i\u2019ve also had some birds here in alabama in the spring that i highly suspected were probably the nominate form as well .", "6 ) while on the topic of seabirds , it might be worth noting that north american records of great - winged petrel refer to gouldi ; that black - capped petrel sensu nacc includes jamaican petrel , te extinct and utterly different dark bird ; that north american forms of audubon\u2019s shearwater are quite distinct from galapagos shearwater , persian shearwater , and tropical shearwater , which nacc still lumps under audubon\u2019s ; that white - chinned petrel sensu nacc includes spectacled petrel ; and that wilson\u2019s storm - petrel may be due for some taxonomic revision , although this may or may not affect the birds that occur in the aou area . further , the nacc still lumps brown skua under great skua , and may be the only authority to do so .", "the best references for a starting point on subspecies are pyle\u2019s identification guide to north american birds , the handbook of birds of the western palearctic , and the handbook of birds of the world . for most species you\u2019ll want to dig deeper into the literature that is cited in those books . i checked pyle for black - crowned night heron and he lumps the north american and eurasian birds in one subspecies because there are no reliable differences . in the middle east you could get other subspecies from either india or africa , which might be identifiable in the field , but i\u2019m not familiar with the literature on those . [ actually , i just checked the handbook of birds of the world and i\u2019m surprised to see that there is only one subspecies listed for all of europe , asia , and africa ! so if you see one that looks different it\u2019s probably just a local variant and not a visitor from afar . sounds to me like a good project for someone to look at dna and study plumage in detail , because it seems really unlikely that they\u2019re all the same . ]", "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 .", "sacc . 2005 and updates . a classification of the bird species of south america . available at : urltoken .", "justification : this species has an extremely large range , and hence does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the range size criterion ( extent of occurrence < 20 , 000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size , habitat extent / quality , or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation ) . the population trend appears to be increasing , and hence the species does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population trend criterion ( > 30 % decline over ten years or three generations ) . the population size is extremely large , and hence does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population size criterion ( < 10 , 000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be > 10 % in ten years or three generations , or with a specified population structure ) . for these reasons the species is evaluated as least concern .", "bahamas ; cayman islands ; chile ; gambia ; grenada ; jamaica ; virgin islands , u . s .", "the population is estimated to number 1 , 100 , 000 - 2 , 000 , 000 individuals . trend justification : the population trend is increasing in north america ( based on bbs / cbc data : butcher and niven 2007 ) .", "( amended version of 2017 assessment ) . the iucn red list of threatened species 2017 : e . t22679780a118856707 .", "to make use of this information , please check the < terms of use > .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "fwc facts : the operator of a boat towing a skier may not pull the skier close enough to a fixed object or another vessel to create a risk of collision ."]}

[ 26 ] ) .", "in macroconchs , the spiral groove , the serration of the keel and the apophysis appear at larger diameters .", "the adult stage starts by the first appearance of an apophysis at d\u224819 . 5 mm in microconchs and at d\u224825 . 3 mm in macroconchs . it is characterized further by a distinct reduction of space between the septa , marking the final stage of their secretion ( fig 8 ) . a similar pattern was previously documented in other ammonite taxa [ 2 ] , [ 17 ] , [ 27 \u2013 29 ] , among other authors . in the most completely preserved macroconchs ( e . g . cpc - 1411\u20131413 ) a slight decrease in the whorl overlap ratio is present at d > 38 mm and the apophysis is consequently projecting ventrolaterally ( fig 3g , fig 3h , fig 3i ) , thus expressing a change in shell geometry . a crowding of growth lines , an additional characteristic of mature ammonites [ 29 ] , is only visible in macroconch cpc - 1413 ( fig 3i ) at a diameter of 63 mm .", "our analysis of the ontogeny of salinites grossicostatum is based on 169 specimens collected from a single limestone layer at puerto pi\u00f1ones , coahuila and assigned to the latest tithonian \u201c durangites beds\u201d . results are summarized in fig 11 .", "sexual dimorphism and four major stages are recognized : embryonic , neanic , juvenile and mature . the diameter indicates the first occurrence of characteristic modifications .", "septal spaces during earliest ontogenetic stages agree in all four specimens analyzed here ( micro - and macroconchs ) and are marked by strong variations in septal spacing . septal crowding during similarly early ontogenetic stages in nautiloids , bactritoids and ammonoids were interpreted to be related to hatching ( e . g . [ 6 ] , [ 30 \u2013 33 ] ) .", "numerous authors considered ammonite hatchlings to be planktonic ( e . g . [ 40 \u2013 45 ] ) . in that case , the highly variable septal angles observed in early ontogenetic stages of s . grossicostatum could reflect a change of life habit to the juvenile stage ( cf . [ 6 ] ) . during the neanic development and up to about 30 septa , the ratio between the number of the septa and the diameter remains uniform for all specimens analyzed here .", "the shell remains unornamented until diameters of about 6 . 4 mm , where ventrolateral ribs first appear . a smooth keel develops at diameters of about 8 . 6 mm . a spiral groove was identified in microconchs at about 9 . 2 mm diameter and in macroconchs at about 13 . 1 mm . serration of the keel is first present at diameters of about 11 . 2 mm in microconchs and at about 15 . 5 mm in macroconchs .", "the abundance of juveniles ( d\u224810 mm ) at puerto pi\u00f1ones , but also at sierra de parras and sierra de jimulco originally described by imlay [ 7 ] , may indicate high mortality rates during early ontogenetic stages before the expression of sexual dimorphism , suggesting that salinites grossicostatum reproduced early , quickly , and in large numbers , to ensure that at least some offspring of the population survive ( r - selection ) . ammonites associated with s . grossicostatum at puerto pi\u00f1ones are mostly represented by single adult individuals .", "based on our analysis of septal spacing we propose that seasonal environmental changes are evidenced in salinites grossicostatum . ten low septal angle events with almost constant amplitudes of fluctuation were identified during the ontogenetic development of this ammonite , all separated by eight to nine wide and regularly spaced septa . in nautilus , these fluctuations in septal spacing are related to variations in the overall rate of growth and to the shape of shell and soft body ( [ 39 ] , and references therein ) , even though they are also seen in nautilus kept in captivity [ 64 ] .", "six ornamentational stages are differentiated . during early ontogeny , s . grossicostatum is unornamented . this phase is followed by the subsequent appearance of ventrolateral ribs , a smooth keel , a spiral groove , and by the serration of this keel . maturity is reached at approximately 19 . 5 mm diameter in microconchs and 25 . 3 mm in macroconchs , and is marked by the appearance of an apophysis and a reduction of septal spacing . additional mature characteristics are expressed in macroconchs , including smoothening of surface ornamentation , increase in siphuncular diameter , reduced whorl overlap ratio , and the crowding of growth lines on the apophysis .", "mortality rates were high during early ontogenetic stages before the expression of sexual dimorphism , suggesting that salinites grossicostatum was an r - selective species . size distribution and a sudden increase in siphuncular diameter in macroconchs may indicate changing habitat preferences of macroconchs during an interval after reaching sexual maturity and before their end of growth . macroconchs may have left the mating area at puerto pi\u00f1ones to reach shallow water areas for egg deposition .", "the authors acknowledge seija beckmann ( institut f\u00fcr geowissenschaften , heidelberg ) for photography . we thank the referees and editor of plos one for their helpful comments that greatly improved the quality of this work .", "conceived and designed the experiments : pz ws . performed the experiments : pz . analyzed the data : pz . contributed reagents / materials / analysis tools : ws . wrote the paper : pz ws . collected samples : ws . designed the figures : pz .", "landman nh , cobban wa , larson nl . mode of life and habitat of scaphitid ammonites . geobios . 2012 ;

like structures known as nematocysts will shoot out of the snakelocks and emit a venom that may be either paralytical or even lethal . after the victim has been caught by these dangerous harpoons ( also known as stinging cells ) it is then absorbed into its body the same way a venus flytrap eats an insect .", "the snakelocks harbor a yellow - green or yellow - brown algae called zooxanthellae as an endosymbiont . this zooxanthellae is a tissue that is fed by intense light that can only be provided by shallow waters which much light passes through . if they do not get the light needed to survive , the tentacles will retract and become colorless , indicating that the snakelocks is either dead or dying due to the lack of sunshine .", "the snakelocks has two forms of reproduction . it reproduces by budding ( a process in which the snakelocks will make an identical half of itsself ) . this process may be known as longitudinal fission ; meaning that the \" fission \" ( to split in half ) is extending along the long axis of the body , in other words , from head to the tail . this \" longitudinal fission \" can take hours or minutes to perform . they can also reproduce through regeneration - a bodily function in which the invertebrate will re - grow any lost appendages . considering these two reproductional functions , snakelocks is truly an amazing creature .", "sea anemones vary in size , with some tropical species reaching more than a metre in diameter . one of the largest in british waters is the horesman anemone ( urticina eques ) , reaching sizes of 35cm across . one of the smallest in britain is the rare anemone gonactinia prolifera , which rarely grows more than 5mm tall .", "are commensal . the anemone provides protection for the spider crab . the crab is immune to the possibly dangerous sting . another commensal relationship includes bucchichi ' s goby ,", "snakelocks anemones live best attached to the bottom in shallow salt water and intertidal pools . these anemones have been found as far down as 20 meters , but are rare below 10 -

zooxanthellae seems to produce food and also remove waste products . after ingesting a meal , the snakelocks anemone increases the amount of oxygen it consumes because the zooxanthaellae produces oxygen as a by -

( 1988 ) described the biology and the larval body chaetotaxy of three species : telamoptilia cathedraea , telamoptilia prosacta and telamoptilia tiliae ( kumata & ermolaev , 1988 ) . however , no larval head chaetotaxy and pupal features of telamoptilia have been described so far .", "description of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . and the consequences for the definition of the genera telamoptilia and spulerina ( lepidoptera , gracillariidae , gracillariinae )", "description of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . and the consequences for the definition of the genera telamoptilia and spulerina ( lepidoptera , gracillariidae , gracillariinae )", "the genus telamoptilia kumata & kuroko , 1988 is globally represented by five species that may be found in the oriental and african regions . the type species telamoptilia cathedraea ( meyrick , 1908 ) is geographically shared by the oriental region and madagascar ( de prins and de prins 2014 ) . three species are currently known from china , including telamoptilia cathedraea , telamoptilia hemistacta ( meyrick , 1924 ) , and telamoptilia prosacta ( meyrick , 1918 ) .", "telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . is associated with malvaceae and is described in the present paper from adult external characters , male and female genitalia , wing venation and immature stages . the larval head and pupal features are described for the first time in telamoptilia .", "kumata et al . ( 1988 ) distinguished telamoptilia from spulerina by the antennal scape having a minute flap , the absence of the fan - shaped comb of the valva and the signum with median process . telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . has a flap as wide as the antennal scape and a signum lacking a median process , which is most similar to spulerina parthenocissi as stated in the diagnosis section . therefore the signum without median process is not an autapomorphy for spulerina when defining telamoptilia and spulerina . the larval seta xd1 of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . is placed near the anterior margin of the prothorax shield , which resembles that of spulerina v\u00e1ri , but differs from that of telamoptilia that has xd1 of variable placement between d1 and d2 ( kumata et al . 1988 ) . the fully grown larva of telamoptilia and spulerina changes body colour into red ( kumata et al . 1988 ) , but colour transfer does not occur in telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . consequently , the most important generic character to distinguish telamoptilia from spulerina is the absence of the fan - shaped comb of the valva as defined by kumata et al . ( 1988 ) , and the minute antennal scape flap and the signum with median process should be excluded for generic definition when taking telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . into consideration . the position of seta xd1 and the feature of larval body colour transfer vary within telamoptilia , thus should not be adopted as generic characters . considering the unique characters of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . , its phylogenetic relationship to other species of the genus telamoptilia requires further study .", "the new species telamoptilia grewiae , reared from leafmines on grewia biloba ( malvaceae ) is described with details on adult and immature stages . the larval head and the pupa are described for the first time in telamoptilia kumata & kuroko , 1988 , and are illustrated with scanning electron micrographs and line drawings . photographs of adult habitus , wing venation , male and female genitalia , as well as host plant and mines are provided . the apomorphic adult and larval characters of the new species in telamoptilia are discussed in relation to the recognition of the genera telamoptilia and spulerina v\u00e1ri , 1961 .", "liu t , wang s , li h ( 2015 ) description of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . and the consequences for the definition of the genera telamoptilia and spulerina ( lepidoptera , gracillariidae , gracillariinae ) . zookeys 479 : 121\u2013133 . doi : 10 . 3897 / zookeys . 479 . 8899", "the new species mostly resembles telamoptilia prosacta , especially in the male genitalia . however , it can be recognized by the male genitalia with the tegumen having 3\u22124 long setae on each lateral side , and the valva width does not change in the basal 3 / 4 ; in telamoptilia prosacta , the tegumen has 9\u221212 long setae on each lateral side and the valva is slightly wider at middle . in the female genitalia , telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . can easily be separated from all other telamoptilia by the extremely short ductus bursae , not reaching the anterior margin of the seventh abdominal segment . the signum lacks a median process and is thereby more similar to signa in spulerina , especially to that of spulerina parthenocissi kumata & kuroko , 1988 , than to those in telamoptilia .", "line drawings of the larval chaetotaxy of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . 20 head , frontal view 21 head , lateral view 22 thoracic segments , lateral view 23 abdominal segments , lateral view .", "last instar larval characters of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . 14 antenna 15 mouthpart 16 setae on prothorax shield , arrow indicating the positon of xd1 17 thoracic leg 18 proleg 19 a9\u221210 , dorsal view .", "the forewing venation of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . is unique within the acrocercops group : r 1 and r 5 are absent , thus r 4 is not stalked with r 5 . the absence of r 1 is apomorphic for chrysocercops kumata & kuroko , 1988 ( occasionally present ) , telamoptilia and spulerina ( kumata et al . 1988 , kumata 1992 ) . although r 1 is also absent in dendrorycter kumata , 1978 , it will not be discussed here since its status within the acrocercops group is still debatable ( kumata et al . 1988 ) . the forewing patterns and the genitalia of chrysocercops are rather different from those of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . all other telamoptilia and spulerina have r 5 , or at least r 5 is visible distally and stalked with r 4 ( kumata et al . 1988 ) . currently there is not enough evidence for assigning the new species without r 5 to a new genus . a comprehensive study of more species is required for further generic definition .", "adult , host plant and mines of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . 1 adult in habitus , paratype 2 live adult 3 host plant 4 linear mines by early instar larvae 5 blotch mine by later instar larva 6 seriously damaged leaves found in september .", "last instar larva head chaetotaxy of telamoptilia grewiae sp . n . 10 dorsal view 10a close -

proposed genus with two new putative species ( table 8 ) . until a formal description is completed , the new genus will be referred to as gen . nov .", "although genetic diversity within tenuibranchiurus has previously been reported , no quantification of this diversity had been undertaken . the multi - gene approach taken by this study and use of several different analytical methods has identified not only several putative species within the formerly monotypic tenuibranchiurus , but a new genus with two putative species . although species identification of freshwater crayfish has traditionally been made through morphological methods , the use of molecular methods in this study allowed the potential pitfalls of plastic and / or cryptic morphological forms within crayfish to be avoided , and will contribute in the development of a standardised method for dealing with species identification within other freshwater crayfish .", "there is no population information available for this species . tenuibranchiurus spp . are extremely rare and this species appears to have been extirpated at two of the sites it was known from ( one of which was developed for housing ) and one of the two remaining sites is at victoria point ( davie 2007 ) , a heavily urbanized area with some light industry on the outskirts of brisbane ( j . coughran , k . l . dawkins and j . m . furse pers . comm . 2008 ) .", "a total of 127 tenuibranchiurus samples were sequenced for the coi gene fragment , 59 for 16s , 95 for gapdh , 58 for h3 , and 47 for ak ( table 2 ) . additional specimens from the genera gramastacus , geocharax , engaeus , engaewa , and cherax were also sequenced for inclusion as outgroups . where sequences from these outgroups could not be obtained ( i . e . , due to non -

chloroform extraction protocol ( doyle & doyle , 1987 ) . two mitochondrial gene regions ( cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 ( coi ) and 16s rdna ( 16s ) ) and three nuclear gene regions ( glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate dehydrogenase ( gapdh ) , histone - 3 ( h3 ) , and arginine kinase ( ak ) ) were amplified ( see table 1 for primer list ) . sequences were edited using sequencher 4 . 9 ( genecodes , 2009 ) and aligned using the muscle addition in mega5 ( edgar , 2004 ) . alignments were then checked and edited by hand if necessary .", "preliminary analyses of both individual and combined gene trees showed a prominent separation between qld and nsw populations . in light of this , genetic distances between qld and nsw populations , distances between these two groups and the outgroups , and distances between the outgroups were calculated using both coi and 16s data to compare the degree of separation . these distances were calculated in mega5 ( tamura et al . , 2011 ) using the net between group mean distances with 1 , 000 bootstrap replicates ( gamma distribution with shape parameter = 1 , maximum composite likelihood ( mcl ) model ; positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated ) .", "an analysis of molecular variance ( amova ) was used to calculate variation within and among clusters of sequences , as implemented in arlequin v . 3 . 1 ( excoffier , laval & schneider , 2005 ) . to determine what the most likely lineages were , the clades identified by the combined gene tree analysis , as well as additional splits evident within the tree that were deemed to plausibly represent lineages , were also tested , as well as groups based on the geographic division of populations ( i . e . , collection locality ; see table s2 ) . the amova calculates three statistics ; \u03d5 st , \u03d5 sc , and \u03d5 ct , all of which are based on both the haplotype frequency and genetic divergence . \u03d5 st measures variation among all populations , and \u03d5 sc measures variation among populations within groups , and \u03d5 ct estimates variation among groups . it has been suggested that an f ct value > 0 . 95 can represent evidence for accurate species groupings ( i . e . , > 95 % of the genetic variation can be attributed to differences among groups ) ( monaghan et al . , 2005 ) . using the \u03d5 ct estimate as a surrogate for f ct ( as this estimate includes genetic divergence as well as haplotype frequency ) , this can provide an approach to delineate taxa based on population genetic analyses by interpreting the amova results used to calculate intra - versus inter - cluster variation in a way analogous to f - statistics ( wright , 1978 ) . the criterion to determine the appropriate number of lineages using this method is where an increase in the number of suggested lineages does not appreciably increase the \u03d5 ct estimate for those lineages .", "in order to validate the lineages that were identified using the species discovery approaches for species - status , two methods were used ; barcoding gap identification ( sensu hebert et al . , 2004 ) , and the k \u2215\u03b8 method ( sensu birky , 2013 ) . these two methods were chosen as they both test species boundaries by comparison of intra - and inter - lineage differences , but do so in different ways ; thus allowing the results of each method to be tested and validated by the other . only the mitochondrial data were used to validate the species hypotheses , as the nuclear gene sample sizes were limited and individually were not very informative ; for instance , most of the nuclear gene trees contained numerous polytomies and thus could not be used to identify genetically divergent groups .", "the genetic distances between the hypothesised lineages and between specimens for both coi and 16s were calculated and visualised to determine whether a barcoding gap existed . as the intent of this method was to provide support for , or refutation of , the lineage hypotheses formed through the species discovery approaches , lineages were pre - defined based on those results and genetic distances categorised as representing either intra - or inter - lineage distances . for the purposes of this study , a barcoding gap was defined as a clear separation ( or \u2018gap\u2019 ) between the highest intra - lineage and lowest inter - lineage genetic distances measured between the suggested lineages . although a standard threshold has been suggested by hebert et al . ( 2004 ) for recognising distinct species ( 10\u00d7 average intraspecific difference ) , this approach was not followed as it has been shown that there are vastly different rates of divergence for both different taxa and different genetic markers ( avise , 2009 ) . rather , a recognisable distinction between the inter - and intra - lineage distances was considered potential evidence for distinct species . analyses were undertaken for qld and nsw specimens separately .", "relative divergences between genetic groups were calculated in mega5 . to determine inter - lineage divergence , the number of base substitutions per site was estimated from the net average between groups of sequences and the diversity between specimens was determined by calculating the number of base substitutions per site between each pair of sequences , both using a mcl model with 1 , 000 bootstrap replicates . the rate variation among sites was modelled with a gamma distribution with a shape parameter of 1 , with positions containing gaps and missing data eliminated . this was performed separately for both coi and 16s , with all unique haplotypes included .", "the species discovery hypotheses were also tested using the k \u2215\u03b8 method ( birky et al . , 2010 ; birky & barraclough , 2009 ; birky et al . , 2005 ) . although this method was originally developed for asexually - reproducing organisms and termed the 4x rule , it has been further developed and shown to be effective for the mtdna region for sexually - reproducing organisms ( birky , 2013 ) . this method provides a simple way of defining species groups based on specimens / populations that form clusters ( i . e . , clades ) that are separated by genetic gaps too deep to be ascribed to random genetic drift within a species and , therefore , must be due to diversifying selection or long - term physical isolation ( apte , smith & wallis , 2007 ) .", "using the groups from the species discovery hypotheses , sister clades were identified and statistical support for these was tested . sequence divergences were estimated within ( d ) and between each sister clade using uncorrected p - distances calculated in mega5 . nucleotide diversity ( \u03c0 ) was then calculated using \u03c0 = dn \u2215 ( n \u2212 1 ) , where n is the number of samples per clade . theta ( \u03b8 ) was then estimated as \u03b8 = 2 ne\u03bc ( where ne is the effective populations size and \u03bc is mutation rate per base pair per generation ) by calculating \u03c0\u2215 ( 1 \u2212 4\u03c0\u22153 ) within each clade . if d = 0 ( as it did for one clade in this study ) , then \u03c0 can alternatively be calculated as 2\u2215 ln ( n \u2212 1 ) , where l is the length of the sequence . k was then calculated for each sister - clade comparison ( using mega5 ) as the uncorrected net between group mean distance , with this divided by the highest \u03b8 in the comparison ( as this is the more conservative approach ) to provide k \u2215\u03b8 . where sister clades were poorly defined in the tree , k was estimated between all potential sister clades in the polytomy , with the clade of the lowest k considered to be the sister clade . finally , following the method of birky ( 2013 ) , if the k \u2215\u03b8 value was greater than 4 , then the sister clades were accepted as different lineages .", "the genetic distances calculated between the qld and nsw groups using coi and 16s were 16 . 0 % and 12 . 7 % , respectively ( table 3 ) . these distances were as large as , or in some cases larger than , the distances calculated between these two groups and other closely related genera . furthermore , some distances between pairs of the other genera were smaller than those between the qld and nsw groups for both coi and 16s ( e . g . , geocharax versus engaeus = 13 . 7 % and 6 . 7 % , gramastacus versus engaeus = 11 . 7 % and 8 . 1 % ; table 3 ) .", "estimates of net evolutionary divergence between groups of coi ( below diagonal ) and 16s ( above diagonal ) sequences with a mcl model .", "groups that are identified as potentially representing distinct species will be referred to herein as lineages , and will form the groups to be analysed through lineage validation methods .", "although not all groupings were statistically supported , both the ml and bayesian combined gene trees suggested the presence of multiple groups within qld and nsw , and displayed the same topologies ( fig . 2 ) . six clades were evident within the qld populations , with the monophyly of all but two highly supported ( as these were represented by single specimens ) . the first clade included maryborough and some tuan state forest specimens ( lineage 1 ; bs 90 % , pp 1 ) , and the second contained the remaining tuan state forest specimens as well as bribie island , type locality , and some beerburrum specimens ( lineage 2 ; bs 96 % , pp 1 ) . the two groups for which monophyly could not be established were represented by the remaining beerburrum specimens ( lineage 3 ) and hervey bay ( lineage 4 ) . the final two clades consisted of tewantin and lake weyba specimens ( lineage 5 ; bs 100 % , pp 1 ) and gold coast specimens ( lineage 6 ; bs 100 % , pp 1 ) . there was also some geographic structuring evident within each of the clades .", "maximum likelihood phylogeny showing the proposed lineages for queensland ( lineages 1 through 6 ) and new south wales ( lineages 7 and 8 ) .", "bootstrap values from the maximum likelihood analysis are shown above the branches , and posterior probabilities from the bayesian analysis are shown below branches for the major nodes , as both analyses produced identical topologies for the major nodes .", "the two monophyletic clades evident within the nsw populations were strongly supported , and form lineage 7 ( lennox head ) and lineage 8 ( lake hiawatha , broadwater national park 1 & 2 ) ( fig . 2 ) . although there was some structuring evident within lineage 8 , the branching patterns were very shallow and were therefore not explored as potential distinct lineages .", "summary of possible lineages based on \u03d5 -

10 spots . the dorsal fin is either uniformly dark or has a blotch on the front edge .", "when compared , no significant relationship was observed between t l estimates and the dominate descriptors of body size . a weak , negative correlation was detected between t l and maximum disc width for the myliobatoidei species ( spearman rank correlation coefficient , r s = \u22120 . 1167 , p > 0 . 05 , n = 64 ) . similarly a weak but positive correlation was detected between t l and torpedinoidei total length ( spearman rank correlation coefficient , r s = 0 . 1071 , p > 0 . 05 , n = 8 ) . removal of filter - feeding species from the myliobatoidei sample resulted in a marginal increase in the spearman rank correlation coefficient ( r s = 0 . 1509 , p > 0 . 05 , n = 61 ) . the thorny round stingray urotrygon chilensis ( g\u00fcnther , 1872 ) , dwarf round stingray u . nana miyake & mceachran , 1998 and munda round ray u . munda gill , 1863 were not included in the myliobatoidei analysis due to the unavailability of an accurate measurement of maximum disc width .", "continuous feeding , as defined above , is the strategy most frequently employed by stingrays and skates [ 3 ] , [ 35 ] . these species typically ingest prey living on the surface of the substrate or utilise inertial suction to target prey buried in the immediate subsurface layer [ 33 ] , [ 36 ] , with larger species able to ingest larger , more mobile prey [ 37 ] . it is interesting that the diet of species within the narcinidae and narkidae appears to be more consistent with continuous feeding species , whereas species within the torpedinidae and hypnidae have a prey contribution profile consistent with that of the ambush predators ( table 2 , fig . 1 ) . as all of these species possess two well - developed electrical organs [ 12 ] , [ 38 ] it might be expected that the feeding strategies and diets of species within the torpedinoidei would be similar . these differences with respect to the type of prey targeted presumably relates to whether a ray species relies on its electric organs to subdue potential prey , or can forage effectively without recourse to producing electrical discharges .", "in contrast , the principal commercial markets for stingray species in the indo - pacific region tend to be artisinal fisheries [ 29 ] , [ 30 ] . the most notable of these occur in the indonesian archipelago which is home to the largest chondrichthyan fishery in the world [ 31 ] . dietary studies in these areas are often impeded by sampling costs , an inability to obtain fresh samples or an inability to adequately process samples e . g . freeze specimens for subsequent analysis . furthermore , the indonesian archipelago has significant problems with respect to illegal , unreported and unregulated shark and ray fishing activity [ 29 ] . as a consequence , dietary studies have a low priority when compared to the quantification of catch rates , determination of population trends [ 29 ] , [ 31 ] and enhancement of baseline biological information , such as growth rates and reproductive parameters [ 32 ] . while stingrays and electric rays are caught in commercial fisheries in australia , their retention is often limited by legislation or low market demand [ 12 ] , and thus this also affects the availability of specimens . further , the collection of specimens for species that do not form part of a commercial catch is generally time consuming and costly .", "figure 3 . histological sections of the vesicles of savi on the ventral surface of the lesser electric ray , narcine brasiliensis . a \u2013 vesicles of savi are located in sub - epidermal pouches ( p ) below epidermal ( e ) , stratum spongiosum ( ss ) , stratum compactum ( sc ) and loose connective tissue ( ct ) skin layers . scale bar = 200 \u03bc m . b \u2013 each vesicle of savi consists of a large central neuromast ( cn ) and two smaller peripheral neuromasts ( pn ) , all innervated by nerve fibers ( ne ) . the cupula ( cu ) of the central neuromast is dense with a striated appearance , while the cupula ( arrowhead ) of the smaller peripheral neuromasts is gelatinous and similar in structure to canal neuromast cupulae . scale bar = 200 \u03bc m . c \u2013 vesicles of savi are closely associated with cartilaginous skeletal elements ( cse ) at their base . scale bar = 200 \u03bc m . d \u2013 vesicles of savi are located in distinct rows along the ventral rostrum . lumina of adjacent vesicles ( arrows ) do not appear connected but lie approximately 100 \u03bc m apart below loose connective tissue ( ct ) . scale bar = 200 \u03bc m . ventral side is up .", "frequency of prey occurrence ( i . e . presence / absence ) , standardised diets and individual t l estimates were calculated for all 75 stingray and electric ray species . an average t l and standardised diet was also calculated for each of the respective families and suborders . calculation of a precision estimate to determine sample size sufficiency for the inclusion of a species in family and suborder level calculations was generally compromised by insufficient information in the source literature [ 2 ] , [ 21 ] . further , restricting the scope of the analyses to studies where sample size had been demonstrated to be sufficient through precision estimates ( i . e . through cumulative prey curves ) [ 21 ] would have resulted in a significant amount of data being omitted from the analysis . given this , the approach taken by cort\u00e9s [ 1 ] and ebert & bizzarro [ 2 ] was adopted with a minimum sample limit of 20 stomachs set for the inclusion of a species in family and order level calculations . the 20 stomach limit has been used successfully in previous elasmobranch trophic level analyses [ 1 ] , [ 2 ] and is designed to enhance the robustness of conclusions drawn and minimise the influence of species with smaller sample sizes [ 1 ] . of the 75 species , 66 had 20 or more stomachs sampled and were subsequently included in the family and suborder average diet and trophic level calculations .", "html public \" -

over the impact of the cane toad on native species and in particular , invertebrate communities , through predation and competition . most significantly , they possess highly toxic chemical predator defences and many scientific and anecdotal reports exist of deaths of native predators that have attempted to consume cane toads . historically , reports on the impacts of cane toads have been largely anecdotal with little quantitative data available since the cane toad ' s introduction in the 1930s . more recent studies have been undertaken to quantify the impacts of the cane toad and include :",

since the 1960 ' s . the factors leading to the decline are not well understand but are likely to include predation of the tadpoles by introduced fish such as gambusia , loss of habitat through clearing and drainage , and diseases such as chytridiomycosis . the cane toad may also be a factor in the decline as the historical distribution of the green and golden bell frog has retracted to the south , such that its northern extent almost exactly correlates with the southern extent of the southern continuous distribution of the cane toad into new south wales .", "population declines or evolutionary responses have been recorded for varanus panoptes and varanus gouldii . one expert noted that historically , such declines have been temporary , with recovery occurring in the following

baselines studies have been undertaken to monitor the calling activity of native frogs to determine changes in frog communities in response to cane toad incursion . these studies , which commenced in 1996 in the roper river valley and in 1998 in kakadu national park are based on the identification of the calls of more than twenty species of frogs as well as cane toads . to date there is insufficient data from the kakadu sites to support analysis . however , initial analysis of the roper river valley provides some indication of a decline in calling rates which correlates with the incursion of cane toads . in particular , the number of frog species calling per station declined markedly between the beginning of the study in 1997 / 98 and 2001 / 02 .", "in northern queensland ,

between pre and post cane toad abundances of the species . despite other potential impacts , including the impacts of a rapidly expanding agricultural industry and human population growth in north east queensland , quoll species were considered to be at high risk from cane toads due to their habitat preferences , distribution and diet ( burnett 1997 ) .", "while there is limited quantitative information on the declines of many of these reptiles in response to cane toads , the vertebrate fauna surveys undertaken in kakadu national park do give an indication of potential impact on these species with substantial declines in cane toad invaded sites recorded for the gilbert ' s dragon and goannas ( watson and woinarski 2003a + b ) .", "this work was based on ecoclimatic predictions of the likely eventual distribution of cane toads across australia and identified those species that will come , or have come , into contact with cane toads . the percentage of the species ' range currently encompassed by the cane toad was estimated along with the percentage of their range that is likely to become affected as cane toads reach their full extent .", "one study undertaken in the

last 10 years , the population has almost entirely been lost from the north east top end , northern territory ; cape york peninsula ; and the einasleigh uplands of northern queensland . these areas

"all stages of the cane toad ' s life cycle : eggs , tadpoles , toadlets and adult toads , are poisonous . cane toads have venom - secreting poison glands ( known as parotoid glands ) or swellings on each shoulder where poison is released when they are threatened . if ingested , this venom can cause rapid heartbeat , excessive salivation , convulsions and paralysis and can result in death for many native animals .", "many native snakes prey on frogs using their mouths to capture and consume cane toads entirely and cannot avoid direct exposure to toxins in the cane toad ' s body . frog eating

cyclorana australis ) and the marbled frog ( limnodynastes convexiusculus ) due to competitive interaction and in some circumstances , high densities of cane toad tadpoles in isolated pools could out compete native aquatic vertebrates and invertebrates for food resources . however there is limited quantitative data to adequately support a conclusion on such impacts .", "in the northern territory , preliminary data from an intensive radio tracking study of goannas , initiated in september 2002 , kakadu national park , has estimated an initial mortality rate of around 50 - 70 % coincident with the arrival of cane toads . it was estimated that a 50 % plus decline occurred in populations of varanus panoptes within an approximately seven month period ( late oct 2003 to late may 2004 ) coincident with the arrival and build up of cane toad numbers ( holland 2004 ) . there is evidence that most goannas died following attempted ingestion of cane toads . there is little quantitative data yet on whether or not recovery of goanna populations is likely to occur in the northern territory as it has in queensland . some species are known to persist in areas of queensland that have had cane toads present from a few to many decades but there are no quantitative data on pre - toad population sizes .", "it is evident that many species continue to maintain populations throughout their range , even in the presence of the cane toad , and there are some anecdotal reports that the wildlife impacts of cane toads may diminish over time . alternatively , a substantial body of anecdotal evidence , and more recent experimental evidence , suggests that some predator species undergo dramatic and potentially threatening declines in abundance as a result of fatal poisoning by cane toads , immediately following colonisation of their habitat .", "cane toads attain high population densities after colonisation and consume large volumes of invertebrates . while larval cane toads are algal , detritus and suspension feeders , metamorphling , juvenile and adult cane toads feed on a broad variety of small prey items , predominantly ground dwelling arthropods . cane toads are thought to consume approximately 200 food items per night , far more prey than most native frogs ingest in the same period . the bulk of the diet is usually ants , beetle and termites , although they can eat anything that fits in their mouth including a wide variety of insects , frogs , small reptiles , mammals and birds . in addition , cane toads have the potential to compete with native species for food and shelter sites . the ability of the cane toad to rapidly expand both its range and density and to consume relatively large numbers of a wide variety of prey has led to concern that the cane toad is a key factor in the decline in of many native species .", "while northern quolls are still present in a number of localised areas in queensland in which cane toads have been present for many years , they do not appear , to date , to be recolonising their former locations and to date there is little evidence that any substantive recovery has occurred following cane toad invasion . more recent experimental evidence from the northern territory supports anecdotal reports from cape york peninsula and other areas of queensland that northern quoll populations have been , and continue to be , severely affected by the presence of cane toads .", "radio tracking of northern quolls commenced at the mary river ranger station , northern territory in 2002 , shortly before the arrival of cane toads later that year . the mary river population declined dramatically between october and december 2002 and by march 2003 appeared to be extinct with no northern quolls being caught in the subsequent may and july trapping trips . in contrast , northern quolls at the cane toad free control site at east alligator were still abundant . six subsequent trapping sessions at the mary river

reducing biodiversity of native species , and altering ecosystems , data concerning such impacts is neither complete or comprehensive .", "public awareness campaigns . in 2000 , new south wales launched a new campaign to ; prevent cane toads establishing outside their existing range ; raise community awareness of cane toads including impacts on biodiversity ; increase community ownership and involvement of the cane toad issue ; and raise community awareness of native frogs and their conservation requirements . the northern territory has also undertaken public awareness campaigns to alert residents and communities to the pending arrival of cane toads , notably around darwin and rural communities . this campaign highlighted the biology and impact of cane toads ; their identification , and outlined safe methods of collection and disposal .", "for the most part , amphibian skin is delicate ( an obvious exception would be something like a bufo toad with thick , leathery skin ) . even the act of a human hand touching the skin can cause damage . abrasive nets or transport bags can also harm the slime layer and the skin . when handling amphibians , one should wear wet latex gloves , rinsed with chlorine - free water before touching the amphibian . cage furniture , such as rocks , plants , substrate , etc . , can cause abrasions to the feet , belly , rostrum ( nose ) and skin . once the skin is damaged , the risk of infection increases dramatically .", "the northern quoll is likely to continue to disappear over most of its mainland , and some of its island , range . based on evidence from cape york peninsula and more recently kakadu national park ( and allowing for persistence in the existing pockets in queensland and in some offshore islands ) , this reduction is estimated at about 95 % of the range ( and hence total population ) as it was in 1980 , by about 2010 . over the next 10 years , it is likely that the rest of the mainland top end population will also disappear , as will much of the kimberley mainland population , estimated to represent a further loss of approximately 30 % of the species ' pre - toad distribution .", "whilst not likely to be the sole cause of the northern contraction in range of the green and golden bell frog , competition and predation interactions between the cane toad and the green and golden bell frog are likely to have operated in concert with other threatening processes such as frog chytrid infection , gambusia predation , and habitat loss in the decline of the green and golden bell frog in the northern parts of its range . despite these observations , at this stage there is insufficient quantitative data to indicate that cane toads are causing the green and golden bell frog to decline . such that it would become eligible to be listed at a higher level of endangerment or that it is having an adverse affect on the species .", "lethal ingestion of cane toads is thought to also pose a threat to many species of australian reptiles . both snakes and varanids prey upon frogs and have few options for prey manipulation . one study has estimated that 59 % of ' agamids ' ( dragons ) , 85 % of the ' varanids ' ( monitors ) and all of australia ' s crocodiles and freshwater turtles are potentially at risk from cane toads . this study reviewed published information on the distributions and dietary habits of australian reptiles and tested the ability of eleven ' at risk ' reptile taxa for their susceptibility to cane toad toxin ( one python , one freshwater turtle , two crocodiles , two dragons and five monitor species ) ( smith and phillips in prep ) .", "research sites have been established to the west of kakadu national park and it is hoped that these studies will provide information directly relevant to the management of cane toad impacts in kakadu national park as well as much of northern australia . coordination of these various studies to assess available results , identify gaps and provide support funding if required , and to consider their implications will require ongoing attention . to this end , a national approach to address cane toads is being developed by the natural resource management ministerial council . it has directed the vertebrate pests committee to review the current threat posed by cane toads ; review the state of research to abate those threats ; identify gaps in current approaches ; and assess the costs and benefits of various options for national action .", "to date , there is insufficient information to adequately quantify the likely extent of declines of many affected species . for some native species , cane toad impacts may be minor and inconsequential in the longer term , despite marked short term responses . alternatively , species may experience little immediate response but be either directly or indirectly impacted on in the longer term . most fauna populations undergo population fluctuations of varying magnitude and it is difficult to interpret changes from a baseline to a single subsequent re - sampling period . longer term population trends can only be discerned from natural fluctuations by a series of monitoring periods . it is considered that further research on the precise nature of both short and longer term impacts of cane toads on native species is required , including the impacts that are likely to come from predation and competition .", "it is considered that , at this stage , there is insufficient data to adequately quantify the exact level of impact that cane toads pose to any listed threatened species , including the ornamental snake and the green and golden bell frog . while it is likely that cane toads are having a detrimental effect , this effect is , to date , insufficiently quantified . there are also currently no data on the impact of the cane toad on a listed threatened ecological community . there is insufficient quantitative data to indicate that the threatening process could cause a listed threatened species or a listed threatened ecological community to become eligible to be listed in another category representing a higher degree of endangerment

large ground dwelling amphibians with a dry warty skin . they have a bony head with bony ridges over their eyes , sit upright and move in short rapid hops . their colour ranges from grey to olive brown and they have a pale belly with dark irregular spots . the average size of an adult is 10 - 15cm long but females have been recorded growing up to and over 23cm . they breed in still or slow - flowing water and can tolerate salinity levels up to 15 % . adult cane toads are active at night during the warm months of the year and can survive temperatures ranging from 5 - 40 degrees celsius . cane toad spawn occurs in long gelatinous strings with double rows of black eggs with females laying between 8 - 35 000 eggs at a time . cane toads have a life span of about five years , breed twice a year , and take between 6 - 18 months to reach sexual maturity .", "a series of broad scale fauna surveys were conducted in kakadu at sites that had been surveyed up to 25 years previously . the monitoring and re - sampling of the terrestrial vertebrate fauna of kakadu national park was undertaken initially to provide some assessment of the short term impacts of colonising cane toads . the project sought to provide some assessment of the change in abundance of wildlife species in kakadu national park in the first year following the arrival of cane toads and was an assessment of short term responses only . changes in fauna abundances were examined since the last surveys and again after the arrival of cane toads . this survey also used control sites , monitored over the same period to eliminate the influence of factors other than cane toads ( e . g . fluctuations in northern quoll numbers between years due to levels of rainfall ) . while northern quolls declined to zero at the cane toad invaded sites , there was no decline at the control sites .", "analysis of climatic variables and the adaptive abilities of the cane toad suggests that cane toads may eventually permanently inhabit the wet coastal areas of the eastern and northern parts of the continent at least as far south as port macquarie in the east of the continent and south to broome in western australia . temperature range analysis has indicated that cane toads , in warm years , could overwinter as far south as bega near the victorian border . conversely , a drop of 2 - 2 . 5 degrees celsius in mean temperature would result in a shrinkage of the suitable overwintering area to the far north coast of nsw . it was estimated , based on this model , that cane toads will further increase their range primarily throughout coastal and near coastal regions of tropical australia to encompass an area of approximately two million km2 ( sutherst et al . 1995 ) . in addition , cane toads have now been

49 million years ago ) and was roughly the size of the modern feral pig ( prista , estevens , agostinho , & cach\u00e3o , 2013 ) .", "pezosiren is the first known quadrupedal sirenian , and represents a transitional form between terrestrial and marine sirenians . pezosiren had four limbs perfectly adapted to walking instead of flippers but at the same time the typical skull , teeth and thickened ribs of the fully aquatic , \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcnormal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 sirenians . its pachyosteotic ribs , providing ballast , indicate that it was semi - aquatic , perhaps filling a niche similar to that of the modern hippopotamus .", "sea cows once walked on land . pezosiren leaves no doubt of that . this roughly 48 million year old mammal once trod over prehistoric jamaica , and looked akin to a hippo with the skull of a manatee . much like pakicetus in the history of early whales , pezosiren embodies a critical transitional period in the evolution of manatees and dugongs , yet the place where this amphibious sea cow was found did not match what paleontologists expected .", "pezosiren was in every other respect , a modern manatee , except that it still had a definite , ( albeit reduced ) pelvis and four still fully - functional legs . the tail was missing and may have been heavier than indicated here as they evidently used them early on . otherwise , pezosiren must have occupied a similar niche to what hippos do now , spending almost all of its time walking the bottom of shallow waterways - which manatees today still do .", "if you only saw the skull of pezosiren you might be fooled into thinking it was a fully aquatic form like modern sirenians . while it\u2019s skull differs in some subtle ways , it is easily identifiable at first glance as being a relative of manatees and dugongs . the strange thing is , however , that pezosiren had four limbs and almost certainly was an amphibious creature . it could still walk on land and did not have the swimming adaptations seen in its later relatives .", "the site is particularly noteworthy for the mammal fossils that it yields , which include the rhinoceros , hyrachyrus , and a new genus and species of fossil sea cow pezosiren portelli domning , the latter named in the 11th october edition of nature by daryl domning . this is the most complete , primitive sea cow yet discovered , and is unique to jamaica . pezosiren is a distant relation of the endangered manatee that has flippers , and lives in the shallow seas around jamaica .", "could pezosiren , an eocene relative of modern manatees from the rock of jamaica and described by d . p . domnig in 2001 , have moved in a similar fashion ? today manatees and their relatives within the sirenia are adapted to a fully aquatic lifestyle ; their forefeet are stubby flippers , they lack hindlimbs , and they propel themselves with up - and - down oscillations of their broad tails . like whales , however , sirenians evolved from terrestrial ancestors , and pezosiren is a startling creature that helps illustrate how sirenians became adapted to aquatic life .", "the bone is about 50 million years old . the researchers guess the animal it once belonged to resembled pezosiren more than the modern sea cow , though the bone also hints that the chambi manatee spent a lot of time in the water since the inner ear resembles that of whales .", "for more on pezosiren portelli , see domning ( 2001 ) ; the diagram contrasting the prorastomid , protosirenid and crown - sirenian is from domning ( 2000 ) . the steller\u2019s sea cow painting is by maurice wilson . sirenians were previous covered on tet zoo in when manatees crossed the atlantic .", "pezosiren was a pig - sized animal with a length of 2 . 1 m . it had a short neck , a barrel - shaped trunk , a moderate - lengthed tail and four short legs . the skeleton will eventually be displayed in the geology museum at the university of the west indies * .", "thanks for comments , brian . i would be happy to discuss pezosiren at length ( and desmostylians ) , given appropriate time and perhaps access to new images and data \ud83d\ude42 as for enamel microstructure\u2026 histology of any kind doesn\u2019t exactly push my buttons , but i know how important it can be as goes biology and evolution .", "at left is an artists ' conception of moeritherium , one of the most basal members known of the order , proboscidea which includes elephants . on the right is an artist ' s conception of pezosiren , one of the most basal members yet known of order sirenia , the family of dugongs , \" sea cows \" , and manatees , even though no modern manatee has legs anymore . .", "i\u2019m intrigued by the diagram next to the pezosiren dot - point , suggesting that the relative positions of the center of mass and center of bouyancy have changed over the course of sirenian evolution . this is plausible enough , but are the remains of pezosiren and other eocene sirenians complete enough to allow calculation of their centers ? \u2014 i\u2019ve also had a niggle for years about moeritherium . the most recent cladograms i\u2019be seen put it closer to extant proboscidea than to sirenia or desmostylia , but its apparently aquatic life - style makes it seem like a good analogue , at least , for the ancestors of the sirenia . ( and the description of the likely life posture of desmostylia in post # 20 sounds like what embrithopoda might have evolved toward if they\u2019d had a chance ! ) prediction : new discoveries will lead to major revision in our picture of the early evolution of the thethytheria !", "since the chambi sea cow is only represented by a single skull piece , benoit and colleagues can\u2019t say exactly what this animal looked like . based on the mammal\u2019s early age and relationships , it was probably a legged sirenian that looked more like pezosiren than a modern manatee . and even though the sirenian probably had legs able to support the animal on land , the petrosal bone contains clues that the chambi sea cow was a proficient swimmer .", "the only other closely related fossil sea cow is prorastomus sirenoides owen , which is known from a skull and atlas vertebra found loose in quashies river , trelawny , and attributed to the stettin formation of early eocene age . the details of the legs in this form are , however , unknown . the morphology of the skeleton of pezosiren is comparable to that of similar - sized land mammals and indicates that pezosiren was capable of supporting its body weight out of water . other characteristics ( such as , details of the nasal opening and the thick ribs ) , however , suggest that it spent much of its time in the water . this new species of sea cow represents a unique glimpse of a stage in their evolution when they made the transition from the land to the sea . * donations to the sea cow fund can be sent to dr . sherene james - williamson curator , department of geography and geology , university of the west indies , mona , kingston , jamaica .", "going back to the post\u2019s title \u2013 i was hoping to see more discussion about pezosiren\u2026 i\u2019m working with daryl domning right now on that critter\u2019s enamel microstructure , and noticed that virtually nowhere on scienceblogs is there any mention of enamel microstructure ( aside from one post by afarensis on humans , with no images of it there ) . i wonder , why not ? there is some really cool work on what amounts to the evolution of histology , and i bet lots of people would really get into it .", "re # 37 and # 38\u2013 enamel microstructure is one of the key pieces of evidence about mesozoic mammals ( hey , if all you\u2019ve got is \u201cthe tooth , the sometimes broken and incomplete tooth , and nothing but the tooth\u201d you look at it as closely as you can ! ) . the down side ( my impression from reading ) being that there are a limited number of possible microstructures , with the derived ones having evolved repeatedly all over the family tree ! but i\u2019ll be interested to see what it tells us about pezosiren .", "in the evolutionary history of aquatic mammals , sea cows , the group that includes manatees and dugongs , once walked into the sea . it was all the rage during the early tertiary as intermediate forms of mammals adapted to a marine life . but something was missing in the history of sea cows . none of the fossil evidence till now has shown a sea cow ancestor with four legs strong enough to support its weight on land . when did they make that critical transition from land to sea and what did the animal look like ? [ daryl domning with the 50 million - year - old sea cow skeleton of pezosiren portelli . photo by christina reed . ]", "sea cows , also known as manatees , were not always the florida - dwelling gentle giants of the sea that they are today . in fact , they once walked on land . their 48 - million - year - old ancestor , pezosiren , ran all over prehistoric jamaica and resembled a hippo at first glance . but sea cows also share ancestry with elephants , which first appeared in africa around 66 million years ago . paleontologists , however , have always drawn a blank on the evolutionary link between the manatee \u2019s african and jamaican relatives\u2014until now . researchers digging around in tunisia found a skill fragment that fills the missing piece of the puzzle . national geographic continues :", "sirenian skulls even today are very similar to proboscidian skulls , especially basal forms like moeritherium . in addition , with sirenians we have a complete sequence of transitional forms from prorastomus , ( a pre - sirenian form ) to walking manatees like pezosiren to subsequent forms which still had all four legs , but weren ' t able to support their bodies out of water anymore . they had become obligate swimmers . we then we have others in which the rear limbs are so small as to be impossible to do anything with anymore . and these lead to a form where the pelvis is gone altogether , and the rear legs have dwindled to no more than a single bone .", "indeed , pezosiren looked very hippo - like . it was short and barrel - bodied , and it also had osteoslerotic bones . this was not an animal that was just dipping its toes into the water but one that was already semi - aquatic . there is little doubt that it was spending considerable time in an aquatic environment . i do not know of any studies seeking to reconstruct the locomotion of this animal , but it would seem a fair inference to suggest that while its movements would be restricted on land it would have exhibited a wider range of movements under the water . it may have moved in ways analogous to , but not exactly like , the hippos studied by coughlin and fish .", "in the big picture of mammalian evolution , sea cows are paenungulates \u2013 members of a group that also encompasses hyraxes , elephants , and extinct branches such as the double - horned arsinoitherium and the aquatic desmostylians . the earliest members of these lineages first appear in africa shortly after the end - cretaceous extinction of 66 million years ago , with the perplexing exception of the sea cows . the earliest , most archaic progenitors of today\u2019s manatees and dugongs , such as pezosiren , have been found in jamaica . anatomical and genetic evidence is clear that sea cows must have shared an african origin with the other paenungulates , but , until now , no one has picked up the fossil trail of the earliest sirenians .", "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 .", "( eds mazin , j . - m . & de buffr\u00e9nil , v . ) 151\u2013168 ( dr friedrich pfeil , munich , 2001 ) .", ", new species ( mammalia , sirenia ) , from the late middle eocene of wadi hitan , egypt .", "the role of phenacodontids in the origin of the modern orders of ungulate mammals .", "fossil sirenia of the west atlantic and caribbean region . v . the most primitive known sirenian ,", "functional significance of bone ballast in the evolution of buoyancy control strategies by aquatic tetrapods .", "i thank j . bailey , b . beatty , d . da silva , h . dixon , s . k . donovan , r . j . emry , c . flemming , f . grady , h . and j . halvorson , j . herrera , k . hickey - commins , s . hutchens , s . jabo , d . jones , i . a . koretsky , j . kramer , b . j . macfadden , c . macgillivray , r . d . e . macphee , s . mitchell , r . w . portell , t . radenbaugh , k . s . schindler , t . a . stemann , c . terranova , and b . , r . and j . toomey . field work was funded by the national geographic society ;

ordinated that it sounds as though it is being given by a single bird , and it may be repeated for up to 23 times .", "5 . in southern nsw , the size of grey - crowned babbler family groups is also reduced . in a three year study of 15 family groups near west wyalong , the mean number of birds in each group was four ( a . overs , unpubl . ) . such groups are much smaller than those recorded further north near peak hill , where groups averaged 8 - 13 birds ( a . overs , unpubl . ) . the impact of reduced family groups on breeding success is unknown , although it is likely to be detrimental .", "grey - crowned babblers live in family groups that consist of a breeding pair and young from previous breeding seasons . a group may consist of up to fifteen birds . an extended family is valuable in the cooperative feeding of young and predator avoidance . all members of the family group remain close to each other when foraging . a soft more", "the major cause of the babbler\u2019s decline in victoria has been the loss of their preferred woodland habitat . over the past 150 years these woodlands have been largely cleared for agriculture , mining , urban development and firewood collection . as a consequence , babbler populations have shrunk in size and become isolated from each other . the number of birds in each family group has also declined , because smaller populations of babblers produce fewer young . for this highly social species , therefore , habitat fragmentation has caused major social disruption .", "grey - crowned babblers were detected at 58 % and 74 % of the 117 sites in 1995 and 2008 , respectively . observed group sizes during all surveys ranged from one to ten birds ( fig 1 ) . observed counts suggest that at sites with restoration works , fewer sites yielded counts of zero in 2008 , and more groups increased in numbers , than at sites without restoration works ( fig 1 ) .", "female lays 2 to 3 brown eggs , with fine markings . incubation lasts about 23 days , by female . several females may lay in the same nest , and all members of the group feed her , and then , help for feeding the young . larger groups raise more young , and this species may produce two broods per year . young fledge at about 23 days after hatching . young birds may stay about one year after fledging with family group , and sometimes , they remain for two or three more years . at this moment , even if they are able to breed , they act as helpers . that is very important for grey - crowned babbler long - term survival .", "of our covariates , large trees had the greatest positive effect on babbler group size ( fig 4 ) . larger groups occurred where the density of large trees was higher . babbler group size declined ~ 15 % between 1995 and 2008 at sites without restoration . the presence of restoration works was associated with about 22 % larger groups in 2008 , effectively offsetting the reduction through time . there was a possible small , but uncertain effect of distance , such that the further groups were from the next nearest group , the smaller the group size .", "grey - crowned babblers are the most common babblers in our area , around narrabri , new south wales . like all babblers , they come in groups or families and forage in trees or paddocks while continuously communicating with each other . seen regularly in bushland , but also more open country and along roadsides . many family units are happy to live in very little dense vegetation by roadsides , often with only one sufficiently large tree to provide them with shelter . more", "the old nests of grey - crowned babblers are used by a variety of other birds : blue - faced honeyeaters sometimes nest on top of the dome . yellow - rumped thornbills may nest underneath and are even tolerated in active nests . facts and figures research species : yes minimum size : 25 cm maximum size : 29 cm average size : 27 cm average weight : 81 g breeding season : july to february clutch size : usually two to three , up to five if more than one female . more", "adult has greyish - brown upperparts . long tail is darker , tipped with white . wings are short and rounded with orange - buff wing patches . underparts are paler , with chestnut - brown lower breast , belly and vent . chin and throat are white . on the head , forehead , crown and nape are pale greyish - white , with indistinct grey band in the centre of crown . we can see dark grey band from lores , through the eye , and joining the mantel , giving a \u201cmasked\u201d appearance . bill is thin , pointed and down curved . it is black , with pale base on lower mandible . eyes are yellow . legs and feet are grey . both sexes are similar . juvenile has dark eyes . they turn yellow when they are about three years old .", "based on unpublished research into the effects of distance to other babbler groups on likelihood of site occupancy ( d . robinson unpubl . data ) , [ 47 ] , we also measured on a gis the straight - line distance from the mid - point of each site to the nearest known group of babblers ( during 2005\u20132008 ) to reflect the capacity of babblers to leave or colonize the site .", "the data presented in this study from two primary surveys separated by 13 years demonstrate that the average number of birds in babbler social groups has declined without restoration , but habitat restoration works have stemmed declines at sites where they have been carried out . because we have sampled through time , included controls , accounted for potential pre - existing differences , we assert that habitat restoration has been effective locally .", "i agree that some bird guides are not the most effective to translate bird calls and songs into words . even more , i think that , sometimes , authors are not doing their best into this essential part of the bird description . how to explain that david sibley righfully describes the call of the golden - crowned kinglet as \u201ca very high , thin , slighly buzzing zee zee zee\u201d ( for me it\u2019s more like tssee tssee tssee ) , without mentioning the similar call of the creeper ? on the creeper side , though , the similarity between the calls is noted , with \u201ca very high sree similar to golden crowned kinglet , but single and with a relaxed liquid quality\u201d .", ") . larger groups occurred where the density of large trees was higher . babbler group size declined ~ 15 % between 1995 and 2008 at sites without restoration . the presence of restoration works was associated with about 22 % larger groups in 2008 , effectively offsetting the reduction through time . there was a possible small , but uncertain effect of distance , such that the further groups were from the next nearest group , the smaller the group size .", "in response to the rapid decline of this species in the state of victoria , a habitat restoration program began in 1994 , when the estimated victorian population consisted of only 260 family groups and was still declining [ 38 ] . subsequent studies have suggested the number of babblers and average family group size have increased in the project areas since habitat restoration works began [ 39 , 40 ] . in none of these examples , however , was it possible to demonstrate robust relationships between the restoration works and the demographic or population responses of the species . the aim of this study thus was to quantify the effectiveness of a targeted habitat restoration program aimed at reversing declines in the occupancy and abundance of grey - crowned babblers .", ") . in 2008 at sites that had not been restored , this had fallen by 0 . 6 birds ( - 1 . 5 , 0 . 3 ) to 3 . 9 ( 3 . 1 , 5 . 0 ) . by contrast , sites that were restored had babbler groups averaging 4 . 6 birds ( 3 . 9 , 6 . 0 ) in 2008 . the difference in the change between 1995 to 2008 due to restoration was on average 0 . 8 bird per group ( - 0 . 1 , 1 . 8 ) .", "of the two races of grey - crowned babblers , nominate race \" temporalis \" is found in qld and nsw eastward of a line connecting the southern tip of the gulf of carpentaria with bourke , nsw . they also live in the hill ranges of vic , but not along the southern coastal fringe in vic and nsw , up to the hunter river valley . they are also not found on the coastal fringe around townsville , qld . race \" rubeculus \" , which is endemic to australia , is found to the west of the tip of the gulf of carpentaria , roughly north of the tropic of capricorn into the eastern nt . they also populate the entire top end of the nt and the kimberley in wa , plus an area around alice springs . their range includes a large area of western wa , along the gascoyne to fitzroy rivers and farther inland from there , to halfway to the nt border .", "] , coupled with the generally open habitats , suggest that counts of zero from sites included in babbler home ranges are dominated by the babblers being unavailable during a survey rather than observers failing to detect all birds of the group when they are in fact present at the survey site . therefore we consider this process the availability of the group to be surveyed conditional upon the site being within the group\u2019s home range . we only allow for false negatives , i . e . missed birds , and not false positives\u2014double counting or misidentification seems unlikely for this distinctive species . thus , we write :", "the mean group size at occupied sites in 1995 was 4 . 5 ( 3 . 8 , 5 . 5 ) ( fig 5 ) . in 2008 at sites that had not been restored , this had fallen by 0 . 6 birds ( -

1 ( 58 % ) suggested that similar peptides could also be present in other species , including mammals . in the mouse , rat , cattle , monkey , and human , cdna cloning identified orthologs of bv8 (", ") . the two mammalian proteins similar to bv8 were named prokineticin 1 ( pk1 or eg - vegf ) and prokineticin 2 ( pk2 or mbv8 ) . a second form of pk2 has been identified and named pk2b ( because of an insert of 21 basic amino acids in its sequence ) . the name prokineticin refers to the ability of these peptides to contract guinea pig ileum , a property shared with amphibian bv8 .", "expression patterns of rodent and human mrnas for pk1 and pk2 ( prok1 and prok2 ) have been reported in peripheral tissues ( dorsal root ganglia ( drg ) , gastrointestinal tract , endocrine glands , spleen , and human and murine leukocytes ) and the cns .", "prokineticins are also expressed in the neurons of the medial preoptic area , nucleus of solitary tract , trigeminal and facial nuclei , and drg .", "the two g - protein - coupled receptors for bv8 - pks , prokineticin receptor 1 ( pkr1 ) and prokineticin receptor 2 ( pkr2 ) have an overall identity in their amino acid sequences of 85 % , with most differences at the n - terminal , and are approximately 80 % identical to the previously described mouse orphan receptor gpr73 . in specific endothelial cells , neurons , and transfected cells expressing these receptors , bv8 - induced pkr activation stimulates ca 2 + mobilization and phosphoinositol turnover , indicating a g q / o - protein coupling . receptor binding studies showed that pkr2 is a mit - preferring receptor ; indeed , the affinity of mit for pkr2 ( in the picomolar range ) is approximately 10 times higher than that of pk2 and 50 times higher than that of pk1 . pkr1 is a mit - and pk2 - preferring receptor ; the affinity of mit for pkr1 ( \u223c5\u201310 times lower than for pkr2 ) is comparable to that of pk2 and 60 times higher than that of pk1 . the affinity of bv8 for the receptors is comparable to that of pk2 and is approximately 40 times higher than that of pk1 .", "human kallmann syndrome ( ks ) , which combines anosmia , related to defective olfactory bulb morphogenesis , with hypogonadism due to gonadotropin - releasing hormone deficiency , appears to be related to mutations in the genes coding for pk2 and pkr2 . in a cohort of 192 patients affected by ks , 10 different point mutations were identified in the genes encoding pkr2 and four were identified in the genes encoding pk2 . the mutations in pk2 were detected in the heterozygous state , whereas pkr2 mutations were found in the heterozygous , homozygous , or compound heterozygous state . in addition , one of the patients heterozygous for a pkr2 mutation also carried a missense mutation in kal1 , thus indicating a possible digenic inheritance of the disease in this individual . these findings reveal that insufficient prokineticin - signaling through pkr2 leads to the abnormal development of the olfactory system and reproductive axis also in humans .", "pkr1 and pkr2 mrnas are expressed in the drg of neonatal and adult rats . pkr1 is mainly expressed in small and medium - size neurons and pkr2 in large neurons . pkr proteins are present in the drg , in the outer layers of the dorsal horns of the spinal cord , and in the peripheral terminals of nociceptor axons . activation of nociceptor pkrs by bv8 in rats and mice produces nociceptive sensitization to thermal and mechanical stimuli , without inducing any spontaneous , overt nocifensive behavior or local inflammation . a physiological role of bv8 - prokineticins as peripheral and central pain modulators is supported by the observation that mice lacking the pkrs or pk2 are less sensitive to noxious heat ( hot - plate test ) than are wild - type mice . pkr1 - null mice also exhibited impaired development of hyperalgesia after tissue injury . the inflammatory agents cfa and mustard oil produced comparable paw edema in wild - type and pkr1 - null mice , but induced inflammatory nociceptive sensitization to heat and pressure significantly lower in pkr1 - knockout than in wild - type mice , demonstrating a role of prokineticins and their receptors in inflammatory pain .", "in situ mrna hybridization experiments demonstrated that pk2 is expressed by inflammatory cells , predominantly neutrophils , in the human inflamed tonsil and appendix and in the rat inflamed paw . pk2 released by inflammatory cells can bind and activate pkrs on the primary sensitive neurons contributing to inflammatory pain . neutrophil extracts , fractionated using ionic exchange chromatography , gel filtration , and reverse phase ( rp ) chromatography , displayed bv8 - like activity , displaced 125 i - mit binding from pkr1 - transfected chinese hamster ovary ( cho ) cell membranes and produced the bv8 - characteristic hyperalgesia when injected intrathecally in rats .", "prokineticin receptors are potential targets for drugs which block the nociceptive information before it reaches the brain . identifying of the structural determinants required for receptor binding and hyperalgesic activity of bv8 - prokineticins is thus mandatory for the design of pkr antagonists . the highly conserved n - terminal sequence avitga and the triptophan residue in position 24 in all members of the bv8 / pk family are required for biological activity ; deletions and substitutions in these conserved residues produce antagonist molecules . preclinical studies are currently being carried out on these mutated pk peptides as pkr antagonists endowed with analgesic properties .", "kda ) . the amino acid sequence was established by automated edman degradation and analysis of proteolytic fragments as well as by cdna cloning . homologs of bv8 have been predicted ( but not yet isolated ) in skin secretions of", "( bm8a ) . these proteins are derived from simple precursors composed of a putative 19 - residue signal peptide and the mature protein . bo8 and bm8a show 96 % and 92 % sequence identity with bv8 . moreover , the putative signal peptides in all three proproteins are 100 % identical (", ") . the primary sequence of bv8 is similar to mit ( mamba intestinal toxin ) , a constituent of the venom of the snake black mamba . the amphibian and snake proteins share the same pattern of cysteine distribution , and their overall identity is 58 % . cdna cloning showed the existence of mouse ( mbv8 ) and human ( hbv8 ) homologs of amphibian bv8 .", ") . a similar cys - motif is also present in mammalian colipase and in the carboxy - terminal region of members of the dickkopf family of extracellular signaling proteins . however , the frog protein does not stimulate the activity of pancreatic lipase , and it is also inactive in an assay for dickkopf functions . starting from the 3d - structure of mammalian colipase , a model was built for frog bv8 in which the hydrophobic amino terminal sequence avitg forms a sort \u201cbeak\u201d exposed at the surface of the tightly folded rest of the protein .", "two forms of mbv8 and hbv8 have been characterized in the mouse and human testis . these forms differ in an exon coding for 21 amino acids , the majority of which are basic (", ") . the predominant site of bv8 expression in both humans and mice is primary spermatocytes in the seminiferus tubules of the testis . the genomic structure of these murine and human bv8 genes has been determined , and the chromosomal localization was identified near a synteny breakpoint of mouse chromosome 6 and human 3p21 .", "identified two human est sequences , one encoding the human protein already described and the other encoding a slightly different bv8 - like protein . the two proteins were named prokineticin 2 ( pk2 ) and prokineticin 1 ( pk1 ) (", ") . the name prokineticin refers to the ability of these peptides to contract gpi , a property shared with amphibian bv8 .", "identified a protein that induced proliferation , migration , and fenestration in the endothelial cells of steroid synthesizing glands ( ovary , testis , adrenals ) and named it endocrine -

covering bone that is present in the rest of the bulbuls , they are sometimes placed elsewhere .", "taxonomy aside , bulbuls are an interesting component of the old world avifauna . many are skulkers in lowland forests . others , such as mountain bulbul ( left , in china ) are found only in the highlands . many others , as we have seen , are island endemics . although almost all bulbuls are now considered \" resident , \" they have obviously shown the potential to evolve and to disperse over long distances , including over substantial oceanic barriers . the sheer number of species is staggering and can be daunting for the traveling birder . and we are just now finding out that we know very little about them at all .", "the bulbul diet spans the range of fruits and berries to insects and other arthropods , as well as small vertebrates such as frogs , snakes , and lizards . a few eat nectar and pollen . the jaw apparatus of pycnonotids is rather generalized compared to other passeriform birds , and while some pycnonotids eat mainly fruit or insects , most can and do have a mixed diet . this flexibility may be critical during the dry season : since most bulbuls are non - migratory , they must take advantage of the food sources available within in their range , which can mean shifting to feeding on more plant matter when insects are not as abundant .", "html public \" -

( todd , 1979 . )", "perhaps the most outwardly distinctive of the dabbling ducks thanks to its large spoon - shaped bill , the northern shoveler busily forages head down in shallow wetlands . its uniquely shaped bill has comblike projections along its edges , which filter out tiny crustaceans and seeds from the water . if the bill doesn\u2019t catch your eye , the male ' s blocky color palette sure will , with its bright white chest , rusty sides , and green head . the female is no less interesting with a giant orange bill and mottled brown plumage .", "perhaps the most visible diagnostic characteristic of the northern shoveler is its large spoon - shaped bill , which widens towards the tip and creates a shape unique among north american waterfowl . male northern shovelers have an iridescent green head and neck , white chest and breast and chestnut belly and sides . they have a white stripe extending from the breast along the margin of the gray - brown back , and white flank spots . the wings have a gray - blue shoulder patch , which is separated from a brilliant green speculum by a tapered white stripe . the bill is black in breeding plumage and the legs and feet are orange . female northern shovelers have a light brownish head with a blackish crown and a brownish speckled body . the upper wing coverts are grayish - blue , the greater secondary coverts are tipped with white and the secondaries are brown with a slight greenish sheen . the bill is olive green with fleshy orange in the gape area and speckled with black dots .", "one of the coolest things about northern shovelers are their feeding habits . they are dabbling ducks which feed by upending and , you guessed it , dabbling . unlike most other dabbling ducks however , the northern shovelers strain aquatic vegetation , plankton , and tiny invertebrates through the comb - like edges of their shovel - shaped bill . you can see these comb - like structures called lamellae in this photo of the drake ( click on photos for full sized images ) .", "this bird favors broad , shallow marshes where it can use the comb - like teeth along the edges of its large bill to strain aquatic animals , plants , and seeds from the water . like the two teal , male shovelers wear eclipse plumage until february , much later than ducks whose courtship begins in the fall . though less numerous than in ancient times , the northern shoveler and other marsh ducks have lately become relatively abundant because game departments and private organizations in canada , the united states , and mexico have purchased wetland habitat to ensure their survival .", "during the breeding season , northern shovelers are found in shallow pools and marshes that have good cover and dry areas nearby for nesting . in the winter they can be found near freshwater marshes , swamps , and flooded areas . ( johnsgard 1965 . )", "northern shovelers use shallow wetlands with submerged vegetation during the breeding season , nesting along the margins and in the neighboring grassy fields . outside of the breeding season they forage in saltmarshes , estuaries , lakes , flooded fields , wetlands , agricultural ponds , and wastewater ponds .", "as with other species of dabbling ducks , the northern shoveler is found in a variety of wetland habitats , including prairie potholes , saline wetlands , and lacustrine margins in summer , and in playas , coastal marshes , and rice prairies in winter . although its courtship , nesting behavior , postbreeding biology , and migration are generally similar to that observed in other dabbling ducks , it differs in other aspects of its life history . for example , this is the most territorial of all north american dabbling ducks , and males remain paired with females longer than in other species , in turn affecting life - history parameters such as the mating system and courtship .", "in the fall , northern shovelers migrate to the southern regions of north america , south america , north africa and southern asia to over winter . freshwater and saline marshes , industrial cooling ponds , agricultural wastewater ponds , coastal lagoons , estuaries and mangrove swamps provide wintering habitat .", "northern shovelers are a game bird . hunters often shoot them due to their resemblance to mallards . they are often referred to as \" neighbor ' s mallards , \" because some hunters give them to their neighbors and keep the more tasty mallards for themselves . ( todd , 1979 . )", "northern shovelers feed by dabbling and sifting in shallow water . seeds of sedges , bulrushes , saw grass , smartweeds , pondweeds , algae and duckweeds , as well as aquatic insects , mollusks and crustaceans , are consumed by filtering water which is taken in at the bill tip and jetted out at the base .", "northern shovelers are common and their populations were stable between 1966 and 2015 , according to the north american breeding bird survey . partners in flight estimates the global breeding population at 4 . 5 million . the species rates an 8 out of 20 on the continental concern score , which means it is not on the partners in flight watch list and is a species of low conservation concern . the u . s . fish and wildlife service carefully manages duck hunting , and limits the number of individuals hunters can take every year based on population size . from 2012\u20132016 , hunters have taken an average of 705 , 533 northern shovelers per year .", "larry , as always \u2014 great post , photo and vids over at 10 , 000 birds ! i had no idea about the lamellae . i mean , i\u2019ve seen them but didn\u2019t understand the full function , nor would i have recognized all of these behaviors as courtship ones . i absolutely love seeing northern shovelers and appreciated knowing more about them .", "it is likely that shovelers are suffering from habitat loss and degradation in asia . they are reported as not good to eat as they have a poor flavour compared to other surface feeding ducks , thus hunting pressure is comparatively low . as for all vagrant bird species , northern shovelers are fully protected in new zealand . this apparently makes little difference come the first weekend of may .", "the coolest shoveler experience i ever had was at coyote hills in the bay area . scores of shovelers were flying in over the hills to land on one of the big ponds . as they flew over us , they produced a sound that was just like fighter jets . i\u2019ve asked a number of people about that but no one yet has heard it . it must have been a combination of their flight path and wind direction . so odd but so evocative when i remember that moment of standing under their beautiful flight .", "northern shovelers inhabit shallow , marshy ponds and wetlands at low elevations . breeding habitat is in open country ( prairie or tundra ) , or lowland woodlands and clearings , always near shallow water . during winter and migration they will use virtually any wetland as long as it has muddy edges . shovelers will forage in sewage ponds and stagnant or polluted waters avoided by other species of ducks .", "northern shovelers rarely tip up , but filter mud through their bills , swimming with their heads outstretched , bills skimming the water ' s surface , sifting out food . in flight they stay in tight bunches , weaving to and fro like shorebirds . shovelers are the most territorial of all the north american dabblers , and pair bonds remain intact through incubation , unlike most other species of ducks .", "northern shovelers migrate in small isolated flocks of 10 - 25 individuals and travel both day and night . in north america , 2 main migration corridors are favored . one passage extends along the mississippi and missouri valleys , through the central plains to the gulf coast and central mexico . the second migration corridor extends from western canada through the intermountain regions of california and down to the west coast of mexico .", "members of the anatidae flock together after breeding in large , multi - species groups at sites with good , safe foraging . at such sites , scoters , canvasbacks , and other diving ducks dive for mussels in the deep sections while dabblers such as gadwall and northern shovelers forage on the surface and in the shallows . on the shore , grazers such as geese and the american widgeon forage on grass .", "it arrives on the breeding grounds from march ( with a migration peak around the end of april ) where it breeds in solitary pairs or loose groups in the northern spring ( chiefly from mid - april to june ) . males undergo a post - breeding moult migration from early - may to early - june ( females moulting one month later ) during which they are flightless for 3 - 4 weeks .", "the breeding season for northern shovelers begins on the wintering grounds in december , where courtship of hens by a group of drakes commences . by january , the majority of individuals have paired before they start their spring migration and most return to the same breeding grounds they used the previous year . once on the breeding grounds , males defend their females and territory strenuously while the females locate nest sites and begin nest construction .", "thanks for this timely post , and congratulations on the great photos and videos ! i love watching northern shovelers here on the olympic peninsula . until this week , i\u2019d only observed their skimming on the surface and upending foraging behaviors . this week i watched a pair swimming in a circle , each one spinning , with the circle creating a funnel effect . it was fascinating , and i wondered ever since what they were doing .", "males weigh 17 to 38 ounces ( 470 to 1000g ) and their wingspans are usually around 31 inches ( 227 to 251mm ) . females are 17 to 28 ounces ( 470 to 800g ) . northern shovelers are sexually dimorphic . the males head , neck , and speculum are iridescent green , their chests are white , and the remaining underparts are a bright chestnut . the females are mainly a pattern of buffs and browns . both sexes have pale blue inner forewings and orange - yellow legs and feet . the most distinctive feature is their large spatulate bill . it is twice as wide at the tip than it is at the base . this uniquely shaped bill gives rise to northern shovelers also being called \" spoonbills \" . the ducklings hatch with a typical duckbill that enlarges as the duckling matures . ( goodes and boyer , 1986 ; todd , 1979 )", "most duck species migrate north of japan to breed , and the shoveler is no exception . it is only rarely encountered during summer . now that autumn is here , however , and migration is underway , more and more shovelers are arriving to join the wigeon and pintail flocks . from early september to november , they are fairly common in hokkaido , passing through on their southbound migration . then , from mid - october onward they become more common in honshu . having spent the winter here , they seem much scarcer in spring , so perhaps they migrate northwards again by way of the continent .", "a northern shoveler feeds mainly by drawing water into its bill and then pumping it out through the sides with their tongue , filtering out minute food particles with long comb - like lamellae that line the edge of the bill . the particles mainly consist of tiny crustaceans , molluscs , insects , and their larvae as well as seeds and pieces of leaves and stems of plants . in addition to the food particles they also eat water beetles , small minnows , and snails . social feeding is common . the shovelers are drawn to feeding areas by other birds feeding in an area . shovelers take advantage of the food particles churned to the surface by the other birds swimming or wading in the area . single birds may swim in a tight circle to create a whirlpool to cause food to come to the surface . shovelers are also known to upend or dabble , usually for lengthier periods than other surface feeders , and also dive using their wings to swim underwater in shallow marshes . ( gooders and boyer , 1986 , johnsgard , 1969 , todd , 1979 )", "with vegetation constituting 60 % its diet , northern shovelers tend to forage on water bodies that are high in plant diversity . vegetated water bodies provide seed from various plants including pondweed , bulrush , various grasses , sedges and algae . the remainder of its diet consists of mollusks , aquatic insects and zooplankton . more specifically , they prefer to forage on animals such as fingernail clams , water boatmans , midge and caddis fly larvae , and copepods and ostracods .", "the edges of its beak are ridged , and these ridges have a very distinctive function . they serve to filter out food from the surface of the water . although these are very small ridges , they function as sieves , similar to the way the baleen does for some of the whales . whereas most of the dabbling ducks are almost exclusively vegetarian , the shoveler\u2019s diet includes far more animal matter than any of its close relatives . they are able to sieve the surface waters of wet rice fields , marshes , ponds and lakes , and so catch a range of animal matter too , which can include insects , mollusks , crustaceans and even small fish .", "although easily recognizable , this species is less well known than other dabbling ducks such as the mallard ( anas platyrhynchos ) , northern pintail ( a . acuta ) , or green - winged teal ( a . crecca ) . even among waterfowl hunters , it rates a low standing , perhaps as much from ignorance of this species as from experience . although this duck has been well studied in north america and the western palearctic , less is known about its biology and habits in asia .", "northern shovelers are by no means the only waterfowl to look out for this season . the wild swans , the whooper and bewick\u2019s are already here , working their way into the country from the north , as are the flocks of geese . large numbers of white - fronted and bean geese are already pausing at their traditional sites in hokkaido , and in another week or so they will be heading south for honshu . with them this year are several rarities in the shape of snow geese and swan geese .", "the unique bill morphology of northern shovelers allows this species to exhibit one of the most unusual feeding behaviors of any duck . its large spoon shaped bill is adapted for sifting large amounts of muddy water . their tongues are highly specialized with extensive comb - like teeth called lamellae , which help filter food items from the water . moving its head side to side , water is drawn in at the tip of the bill , filtered through the lamellae to pick up any food particulate and then expelled at the base .", "national wildlife refuges are a great place to look for northern shovelers from migration throughout the winter months ( august\u2013april ) . look around the fringes of shallow areas for groups of ducks with their heads down foraging intently . they tend to use more stagnant pools of water than other ducks , so you may also find them in smaller and murkier pools of water . the male ' s bright white chest will surely attract your attention if you don ' t immediately see their giant bill . shovelers are a little less wary than other ducks , sometimes affording closer looks without the need of a spotting scope .", "northern shovelers , related to the blue - winged and cinnamon teal , are often referred to as the \" spoonbill \" or \" spoony \" because of their unique spatulate shaped bill . breeding males are distinguished by a green / black head , white belly , rufous flanks and black bill . females show similar body patterns as males but tend to be more gray and their bills are orange , speckled with black . at a casual glance , individuals can easily be mistaken for mallards but can be distinguished from them by the large blue patch they display on their shoulder and their iridescent green speculum ( a lustrous colored patch on the wing ) as opposed to the absence of a shoulder patch and violet blue speculum of the mallard", "larry jordan was introduced to birding after moving to northern california where he was overwhelmed by the local wildlife , forcing him to buy his first field guide just to be able to identify all the species visiting his yard . building birdhouses and putting up feeders brought the avian fauna even closer and he was hooked . larry wanted to share his passion for birds and conservation and hatched the birder ' s report in september of 2007 . his recent focus is on bringing the western burrowing owl back to life in california where he also monitors several bluebird trails . he is a birdlife species champion and contributes to several other conservation efforts , being the webmaster for wintu audubon society and the director of strategic initiatives for the urban bird foundation . he is now co - founder of a movement to create a new revenue stream for our national wildlife refuges with a wildlife conservation pass .", "northern shovelers swim through wetlands , often with their bills down in the water , swinging them side to side to filter out tiny crustacean prey . sometimes large groups swim in circles to stir up food . they don ' t forage on land regularly , but they do rest on land and walk along wetland edges . they are fairly social ducks , occurring in groups with shovelers and other dabbling ducks , especially during the winter . during the breeding season , they are less tolerant of other shovelers encroaching on their territory . defensive males often chase intruders on the water and in the air . males court females on the wintering grounds with turns , dips , wing flaps , and head pumping . pairs stay together during the breeding season , although males will occasionally mate with a second female . after breeding , males group together in small flocks before and after molting . males molt their flight feathers before migrating south , becoming flightless for a brief period , when they tend to stay hidden in vegetation especially at night .", "distribution : this species have a very broad geographic ranges estimated at around 10 , 000 , 000 km2 .", "this duck is especially found in water bodies rich in aquatic vegetation and in plankton . suitable habitats include well - vegetated lakes , ponds and marshes with muddy shores and substrates in open country - such as grasslands or even tundra - or lowland woodlands and clearings for nesting , as well as oxbow lakes , channels and swamps , notably in the former u . s . s . r . . it also frequents artificial waters bordered by lush grassland such as sewage farms , rice -

any particular papers / courses you enjoyed ? the college hall staff were the best support i could have while i was studying . it was very hard to be away from my family and tahiti at first , and they really helped me get used to nz cultural differences . teachers were mostly understanding of my problems with writing in english , since french was my first language .", "during my masters , i was lucky to be supervised by dr . chrissen gemmill , mr . john innes ( landcare research ) and dr . steven miller ( statistics department ) . many other waikato staff in the research department really guided me too and really inspired me to work in ecology : dr bruce clarkson , dr daniel laughlin , dr mike clearwater , kiri cutting , rebecca bylsma , catherine kirby , toni cornes , etc . they are the best at what they do and the most enthusiastic people i have met .", "finishing my 6 yearlong studies ! while i was searching for a job , i was also very happy to work on different projects ( with doc , bream head trust , project tongariro trust , etc . ) . i was very lucky to meet new people & travel across nz while participating in different conservation projects . i felt that completing a few weeks at a time of volunteer work was very meaningful ( and also helped my professional career ) .", "my biggest achievement right now is to have been recruited as a project manager for sop manu / birdlife international . although i am qualified , this job required many years of experience , and i was very lucky to have been chosen .", "outside of your career , what do you enjoy doing ? since i came back to tahiti , i\u2019ve gone back to tahitian dance , and managed to participate in two dance shows , which was great . i also enjoy running when i can , and hiking .", "what do you see yourself doing over the next five years ? life is full of endless possibilities . the conservation projects that i am working now will take at least 5 years to be completed . for now , this job is being funded for 2 years . if they are funded again i might renew my contract and i could then continue as a manager for a different conservation project , or find a steadier job in a private or government firm . i might also try to become a private consultant for different conservation projects across the pacific . i may eventually come back to nz , as there is not much future in conservation here in french polynesia ( ideology of conservation / preserving the environment is still a work in progress ) . i might try to get back into research and obtain a doctorate degree .", "nb : your browser has javascript disabled or does not support javascript . elements of this website require javascript , and will not function unless you enable it or use another browser with javascript support .", "this site uses cookies to improve performance . if your browser does not accept cookies , you cannot view this site .", "there are many reasons why a cookie could not be set correctly . below are the most common reasons :", "you have cookies disabled in your browser . you need to reset your browser to accept cookies or to ask you if you want to accept cookies .", "your browser asks you whether you want to accept cookies and you declined . to accept cookies from this site , use the back button and accept the cookie .", "your browser does not support cookies . try a different browser if you suspect this .", "the date on your computer is in the past . if your computer ' s clock shows a date before 1 jan 1970 , the browser will automatically forget the cookie . to fix this , set the correct time and date on your computer .", "you have installed an application that monitors or blocks cookies from being set . you must disable the application while logging in or check with your system administrator .", "this site uses cookies to improve performance by remembering that you are logged in when you go from page to page . to provide access without cookies would require the site to create a new session for every page you visit , which slows the system down to an unacceptable level .", "this site stores nothing other than an automatically generated session id in the cookie ; no other information is captured .", "in general , only the information that you provide , or the choices you make while visiting a web site , can be stored in a cookie . for example , the site cannot determine your email name unless you choose to type it . allowing a website to create a cookie does not give that or any other site access to the rest of your computer , and only the site that created the cookie can read it .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd html 3 . 2 / / en \"", "evaluates the conservation status of plant and animal species . the list is based on scientific assessment of an organism ' s status by experts .", "copyright rhett butler 1994 - 2015 carbon dioxide ( co2 ) emissions generated from urltoken operations ( server , data transfer , travel ) are mitigated through an association with anthrotect , an organization working with afro - indigenous and embera communities to protect forests in colombia ' s darien region . anthrotect is protecting the habitat of mongabay ' s mascot : the scale - crested pygmy tyrant . \" rainforest \" is used interchangeably with \" rain forest \" on this site . \" jungle \" is generally not used ."]}

pupa stage ) , the pupa and finally adult emergence ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . the life cycle of parapoynx diminutalis ranges from 25 to 41 days for development and about five days for the adult life span . females lay on average about 200 eggs , but can lay just a few to over 500 . the eggs require 4 - 6 days to develop before first instars hatch . adults typically emerge from pupae after dusk and are quick to fly to avoid potential predators . the adults drink water using a reduced proboscis , but they do not appear to feed ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . parapoynx diminutalis mating has not been studied in detail but has been observed occasionally and seems to occur at around three hours after dusk . although the maximum time in copula is unknown , pairs of moths in copula facing in opposite directions were noted to rest for at least 30 minutes . after mating , there is a 1 - day pre - oviposition period . females then oviposit soon after dusk just below the water surface on leaves or stems . first instars have been shown to hatch both below and above the water surface , although it has been observed that the females typically oviposit below the water surface ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "however , in south africa , where the moth was accidentally introduced , parapoynx diminutalis is believed to be having a significant impact on hydrilla infestations ( bownes 2010 ) . after moths were discovered feeding in a hydrilla infested water body at pongolapoort dam , kwazulu - natal in january 2009 , almost all plants were defoliated by april of the same year ( bownes 2010 ) . although hydrilla was not eradicated in this area , the reduction in viability of the hydrilla has allowed other native plants to recolonize .", "the asian moth parapoynx diminutalis snellen is an immigrant in florida and panama where it attacks hydrilla , hydrilla verticillata ( l . fil . ) royle , an immigrant submersed weed from asia . field populations of p . diminutalis are occasionally heavy on hydrilla but are rarely found on other plant species , including those that are laboratory hosts . larvae build portable cases from which they feed on leaves and stems . the 7 instars can be differentiated by head capsule widths . measurements are presented of other immature stages . in the laboratory at 26 . 7\u00b0c , eggs developed in 4 - 6 d , larvae in 21 - 35 d , prepupae in 1 - 2 d , and pupae in 6 - 7 d . adults lived 3 - 5 d at 24 . 4\u00b0c .", "hydrilla is invasive , and the actions of the moth rarely require management and are usually considered to be desirable . however , in certain situations where the presence of hydrilla is needed , such as in research with other biocontrol agents , management of the moth larvae may be necessary to prevent consumption of the plant material . in these situations , a strain of the biorational insecticide bacillus thuringiensis has been tested for controlling parapoynx diminutalis ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ; bownes 2010 ; baniszewski et al . 2016 ) . bacillus thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki , commonly known as btk , is specific to lepidopteran pests . btk produces proteins that are toxic to larvae ; the proteins bind to the midgut when consumed and kill the larvae ( bauce et al . 2006 ; van driesche et al . 2008 ) . a commercially available btk product has been shown to cause 80 % mortality of parapoynx diminutalis larvae in about four days ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . baniszewski et al . ( 2016 ) found that a concentration of 2 ml per 3 . 8 l or higher reduced moth emergence by 75 % and a concentration of 0 . 2 ml per 3 . 8 l reduced emergence by 50 % . however , the higher doses impacted the emergence of the biological agent under culture , the hydrilla tip - mining midge , cricotopus lebetis ( baniszewski et al . 2016 ) .", "larvae are commonly found on the aquatic weed hydrilla , hydrilla verticillata . the initial discovery of the moth on hydrilla led to an interest in the moth as a possible biological control agent of this invasive weed . in the field , larvae and pupae have been found in small numbers on coontail ( ceratophyllum demersum l . ) , southern naiad ( najas guadalupensis ( sprengel ) magnus ) , and illinois pondweed ( potamogeton illinoensis morong ) ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . furthermore , in laboratory studies , while parapoynx diminutalis larvae preferred hydrilla , they could also complete development on various other plants including coontail , southern naiad , fanwort ( cabombo caroliniana gray ) , brazilian waterweed ( egeria densa planchon ) , and eurasian water - milfoil ( myriophyllum spicatum l . ) ( buckingham and bennett 1989 ) .", "plant damage is inflicted by the larvae , which not only eat the leaf and stem tissue , but use these materials to prepare their pupal cocoon as well ( figure 7 ) . the main food source for parapoynx diminutalis is the aquatic weed hydrilla ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . in most natural situations in the u . s . , hydrilla is invasive and an undesirable weed because it develops surface mats and disrupts natural ecosystems ( haller and sutton 1975 ; langeland et al . 2016 ) . there have been few studies to quantify the effect of feeding moth larvae on hydrilla biomass . feeding of the moth larvae on hydrilla in florida was thought to have a positive effect on hydrilla - invaded water bodies ( del fosse et al . 1976 ) by reducing the need for herbicide applications to control hydrilla mats . however , naturalized populations of this moth are too sporadic to have a significant effect on hydrilla density . for example , in northern florida populations build up during the summer months and can cause extensive defoliation of hydrilla , but in the winter , populations decline rapidly with cooler water temperatures ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "the moth was identified in 1971 in india and pakistan during scouting trips to attempt to determine potential biological control agents for hydrilla . despite having potential for hydrilla destruction , the moth was declared to be a generalist feeder and unsuitable for release into u . s . water bodies for hydrilla control ( baloch et al . 1980 ) . however , the moth was later found in florida in 1976 by united states department of agriculture technicians who were testing herbicides for hydrilla control . the larvae ( caterpillars ) found on hydrilla were observed to be eating the invasive weed . the pathway , method , or time of the moth\u2019s arrival remains unknown ( del fosse et al . 1976 ) .", "more recent studies indicate that the moth also is established in louisiana , where 37 moths were collected from 1984 - 1992 ( brou jr . 1993 ) .", "eggs : eggs are smooth and bright yellow when laid ( figure 1 ) ; they turn white , and then become transparent as they develop . the eggs are generally deposited on plant leaves or stems just below the water surface in masses of various sizes ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "larvae : larvae can be distinguished from those of other aquatic species by the presence of branched gills ( habeck 1996 ) and brown spots on the head and the tip of the thorax . the larval stage consists of seven instars ; all seven are off - white with yellow - brown legs ( habeck and balciunas 2005 ) . the larvae are mobile and feed on hydrilla leaves . the first instar is white yet nearly transparent and has 1 mm long setae ( hairs ) ( figure 2 ) . instars 2 through 7 are white , later instars begin to turn yellow as they approach pupation ( figure 3 ) . in later instars , the length increases and the external gills develop ( figure 4 ) . instars 3 through 7 use plant tissue to construct a silk case , and often retreat into the case between feeding events ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "pupae : pupae have three tubercles ( or nodules ) along each side and two setae ( or hairs ) on the head . female pupae can be distinguished from males by their larger size and by their antennae . female antennae are shorter , extending only to the wing tips , whereas male antennae are longer and extend past the wing tips ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) . late seventh instar larvae ( or pre - pupae ) enclose themselves in a white cocoon , which is attached to a submerged plant stem ( figure 5 ) . after 1 - 2 days in the cocoon , the white pre - pupae have developed into yellow pupae inside the cocoon . the eyes turn red , then brown , and the wings become visible as pupation progresses ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "adults : moth adults are white with brown or tan markings or bands on the wings and tan bands on the body ( figure 6 ) . females typically differ from males by their longer wingspans , more pointed forewings , larger abdomens and shorter antennae , and they lack the noticeable white setae displayed by males on the tip of the abdomen ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "the moth was identified in pakistan and india during scouting trips to locate potential biological control agents for hydrilla ( baloch et al . 1980 ) . at this point , the researchers observed the moth damaging hydrilla and believed that the moth could be an effective control agent due to its destructive capabilities .", "an important characteristic of a biocontrol agent is host specificity . when laying eggs , female moths are not highly selective , which makes other plants susceptible to consumption by developing larvae . furthermore , the moth is limited by winter temperatures , and populations decline during the cooler months to a level that is almost undetectable . sensitivity to cooler climates and lack of host specificity makes the moth a poor biological control agent of hydrilla ( habeck and balciunas 1976 , buckingham and bennett 1989 ) .", "monitoring for adult moths can be done using ultraviolet ( uv ) black lights or incandescent light bulbs , which are both attractive to the moth ( buckingham and bennett 1996 ) .", "the authors would like to acknowledge funding provided by the usda nifa ramp grant 2010 - 02825 that helped pay for the production of this article . the authors would like to acknowledge the reviewers that provided feedback on an early draft of the article , dr . william overholt and dr . verena lietze .", "agassiz d . 1978 . five introduced species , including one new to science , of china mark moths ( lepidoptera : pyralidae ) new to britain . entomologist\u2019s gazette 29 : 117 - 127 .", "agassiz d . 1981 . further introduced china mark moths ( lepidoptera : pyralidae ) new to britain . entomologist\u2019s gazette 32 : 21 - 26 .", "balciunas jk , minno mc . 1985 . insects damaging hydrilla in the usa . journal of aquatic plant management 23 : 77 - 83 .", "baloch gm , sana - ullah , ghani ma . 1980 . some promising insects for the biological control of hydrilla verticillata in pakistan . tropical pest management 26 : 194 - 200 .", "bauce e , kumbasli m , van fankenhuyzen k , carisey n . 2006 . interactions among white spruce tannins , bacillus thuringiensis subsp . kurstaki , and spruce budworm ( lepidoptera : tortricidae ) , on larval survival , growth and development . journal of economic entomology 99 : 2038 - 2047 .", "haag kh , buckingham gr . 1991 . effects of herbicides and microbial insecticides on the insects of aquatic plants . journal of aquatic plant management 29 : 55 - 57 .", "habeck dh . 1996 . australian moths for hydrilla control . u . s . army engineer waterways experiment station . technical report . a96 : 10 . vicksburg , ms .", "habeck dh , balciunas jk . 2005 . larvae of nymphulinae ( lepidoptera : pyralidae ) associated with hydrilla verticillata ( hydrocharitaceae ) in north queensland . australian journal of entomology 44 : 354 - 363 .", "haller wt , sutton dl . 1975 . community structure and competition between hydrilla and vallisneria . hyacinth control journal 13 : 48 - 50 .", "kegley se , hill br , orme s , choi ah . 2010 . pan pesticide database . pesticide action network , north america ( san francisco , ca . 2010 ) .

gorges are sufficiently wide to be of the bird\u2019s liking , for there the winter temperature seems to have prevented the yellow lupin from getting a foothold . but the open shingle must be a quarter of a mile wide before the wrybill would make their home on it . they were never numerous , and even thirty years ago i should think two to three pairs to the square mile on the rakaia was their maximum population , and , since the lupin has filled the river bed , below the bridge , their numbers have certainly been much reduced . their chief bird enemies are harriers and black\u2013backed gulls , yet the toll that both these take would not equal that of stoats and weasels during the birds\u2019 breeding season .", "the wrybill is a small pale plover which breeds only in braided rivers of the south island . it is the only bird in the world with a laterally - curved bill ( always curved to the right ) , which it uses to reach insect larvae under rounded riverbed stones . wrybills are completely dependent on braided rivers for breeding ; all their life stages are predominantly grey , and highly cryptic among the greywacke shingle of the riverbeds .", "the wrybill is a distinctive wading bird , which possesses a uniquely bent bill . the tip of the black bill is curved to the right , this adaptation allows these birds to forage under stones for insect larvae ( 3 ) . the plumage is ash - grey above with white underparts . during the breeding season , individuals have a black band across the upper chest and males also have a band on the forehead ( 2 ) .", "wrybill birding tours , nz \u2026\u2026 . started out as a couple of birding mates making the decision to set up their own independent bird - guiding business . we felt there was a need for real birders , who were passionate about birding , really knew their new zealand birds and birding sites inside out , and were based in new zealand , with access to up - to - date information on the new zealand birding scene . sure we know our natural history as well , but we are birders , the name says it all !", "the wrybill is monogamous . nesting and feeding territories are usually strongly defended . the mating season starts when the birds return to south i . they are very active , chasing each other in the air and on the ground . if the pair is disturbed during the courtship displays by another bird , the intruder is driven away by the bird of the same sex . it runs after it with outstretched neck among the stones , while maintaining its balance by slightly opening the wings . the female shows great submission to the male once mated . they nest solitary in loose colonies with nests at least 400 metres apart , and never less than 40 metres .", "in the wrybill , however , the bill , which is one and a quarter inches long , is bent to the right in the middle , the end being offset at an angle of 12 degrees to the base . this is claimed to be an adaptation to its existence on the shingle river - beds of canterbury , where it nests , the bent bill supposedly enabling it to get its food the more readily from under stones . and no doubt it does this , when the occasion demands , but there can be very few occasions when this peculiarity is of any decided benefit to its possessor , for over nearly all the river - beds on which the bird feeds , the stones are so much buried in sand as to make the bill quite unnecessary . moreover . the bird spends less than half the year on shingle river\u2013beds , living for the remaining months on mud\u2013flats , and sea beaches , where its abnormality can be of no benefit .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "among new zealand\u2019s many bird curiosities , writes edgar stead , the wry - billed plover is often not included , but it certainly ought to be , for it is the only bird in the world which has its bill bent sideways . the crossbills of the northern hemisphere might claim that they share in this distinction , but their bills are symmetrical , the upper mandible being bent one way , and the lower , the other .", "it has to be taken into account also , that while the bill , bent as it is to the right , gives the bird some advantage when feeding under stones on its right , this structure is a very distinct disadvantage to the bird when it wishes to feed on its left . a bill with an upwards curve , one would have thought , would have been of greater use .", "wrybills are in their full mating plumage when they return south , the black band across the chest being very conspicuous ; the narrow white frontal band , with the brownish band behind it , not showing up at all except at very close range . the whole of the upper parts are blue\u2013grey , but with age the feathers lose a certain amount of their blue tint , and also , particularly in the case of scapulars , become much frayed at the edges . it has been stated by some writers that the black chest band is wider on one side than the other , but this is not the case , either in fact or in appearance .", "wrybills nest on high shingle spits , choosing a place where the stones are rather large , and clear of all growths and drift . a mere scratching in the sand , occasionally with a few small pebbles added around its edges , serves as a receptacle for the two eggs , which are wonderfully like the stones among which they are laid .", "both birds take their turn at incubation , and sit very close , so that they will often allow a person to pass within twenty yards of them without getting off the eggs . owing to the remarkable similarity of their colouring to that of the surroundings , wrybills are easily passed when they keep still , and nests would certainly remain undetected if the birds did not move . but if the bird does get off the nest , and run towards an intruder ( wrybills do not fly around intruders in the same way that banded dotterel do ) , the latter has only to stand still for a few moments , when the bird will , as a rule , run straight back , and sit on its nest , even though it be in full view , and not fifteen yards away .", "laying commences about the middle of september and continues throughout october . i have found eggs in november , but i think it probable that they were second clutches , the first having been destroyed . the young when hatched are thickly covered with down , white on the breast and underparts , the whole of the upper surface being stone grey , faintly marked with smoky black . when they are hatched , and even as an embryo in the egg , they have the bend in the bill well defined . they leave the nest within a day of hatching , and follow their parents about in search of food . by the time the young are full

by wrybills are predation ( by introduced mammals and native birds ) , flooding of nests , and loss or degradation of breeding habitat . threats vary temporally and spatially , and their relative importance overall is unclear . actual and potential threats to habitat include loss to hydro - electric power schemes , abstraction of water for irrigation , weed growth , and disturbance caused by a wide range of recreational and commercial activities . on wintering grounds , predation of adults has been recorded , and some loss of roosting habitat is likely as mangroves encroach . wrybills

residential species . it is important to note that almost half of the migrants ( 41 of 94 species ) failed to breed in any of the studied habitats . thus , the distances of their movements are substantially greater compared to the size of the site . so , the migrations of such species should be characterised at the landscape scale .", "overall , we collected 34 , 108 individuals belonging to 98 carabid species . we recorded 65 species in rice field banks , 73 species in buffer strips and 78 in restored habitats . eight species were found only in rice field banks ( agonum sexpunctatum , amara nitida , cicindela campestris , clivina collaris , harpalus albanicus , harpalus pumilus , ophonus cribricollis , pterostichus macer ) , 6 species only in herbaceous buffer strips ( amara littorea , bembidion quadripustulatum , bradycellus verbasci , dolichus halensis , ophonus azureus , panagaeus cruxmajor ) , 2 species only in arboreal buffer strips ( badister sodalis , drypta dentata ) , 2 species only in herbaceous restored habitats ( acupalpus elegans , ophonus diffinis ) and 11 species only in arboreal restored habitats ( acinopus picipes , acupalpus flavicollis , acupalpus notatus , agonum versutum , agonum viduum , limodromus assimilis , limodromus krynickii , nebria brevicollis , ophonus parallelus , paranchus albipes , synuchus vivalis ) . poecilus cupreus and pseudoophonus rufipes consituted about 55 % of the capture with 18 753 individuals .", "the most interesting aspect of this carabid coenosis is the presence of several species with southern distribution , quite common in clay soil on the right bank of the po river , and known only in few stations north of the po river . among these species , we list acinopus picipes , amblystomus niger , dinodes decipiens , harpalus cupreus , harpalus oblitus , parophonus mendax , parophonus planicollis , pterostichus macer . although a comparison with the past coenosis is not possible for the lack of similar surveys in the area , it could be hypothesized that these species are recent colonizers ( 7 - 10 years ) . they are not reported in the historical catalogue of magistretti ( 1965 ) , and are also not listed in several recent faunistic investigations carried out in the lombardy lowland , particularly along the ticino river ( pasquetto 1992 , bogliani et al . 2003 ) , adda river ( conti 1991 ) , po river ( pilon et al . 1991 , rancati and sciaky 1994 ) and in milan ( pilon et al . 2010 ) , where potentially suitable habitats were sampled . even in an intensive survey along the po river included in piedmont region , only some of these species have been collected ( allegro and sciaky 2001 ) . if so , we could assume a tendency to a northward shift in the distribution of these species , according to what has been observed for other zoological groups well studied and that have great mobility , such as birds ( chen et al . 2011 ) and dragonflies ( ott 2010 ) .", "soil disturbance is recognised as an important restoration measure for conserving biodiversity in sandy soils . we used a soil disturbance ( ploughing ) experiment in a sandy grassland as well as a semi - natural disturbance ( slope erosion enhanced by cattle trampling ) gradient on a sandy slope to test the soil disturbance effects on the ground - living beetle community . both experimental disturbance and semi - natural disturbance favoured sandy grassland specialists , but there was no overall effect on beetle richness and abundance . amara lucida and harpalus spp . were favoured by disturbance while calathus melanocephalus was disfavoured . experimental ploughing significantly increased the proportion of red - listed species in disturbed plots compared to non - disturbed controls . in the semi - natural disturbance gradient we found that the beetle community on the disturbed slope differed from that of the flat areas , and there were tendencies for a higher proportion of red - listed species on the slope . we conclude that increasing the area of bare sand in sandy grasslands can have positive effects on many threatened species . soil disturbance should thus be included as a regular measure in sandy grasslands under conservation management and as a measure to restore high biodiversity in areas where bare sand is rare .", "although the sampling effort was quite different between 1983\u20131984 and 2002 , we assume that around 11 records of the 16 new species during the second sampling period can also be due to the invasion by elymus . in fact , several continental species were discovered after the invasion in relatively high numbers ( i . e . , more than five individuals ) , both on the dyke and in the salt marsh . among them , most species are linked to high contents of organic matter and a more pronounced litter layer ( e . g . , agonum muelleri , bembidion obtusum and the polyphagous pterostichus versicolor ) or are even partly phytophagous ( amara spp . and harpalus spp . : dajoz 1988 , ikeda et al . in press ) . conversely , halophilic species discovered in 2002 are hardly related to the invasion . pogonus littoralis and dicheirotrichus obsoletus could have been misidentified earlier , as these species are very similar to pogonus chalceus and dicheirotrichus gustavii , respectively ( forel and leplat 2005 , dhuyvetter et al . 2007 ) . dicheirotrichus obsoletus could also have been missed in 1983\u20131984 ( the sampling stopped in september ) as more than 89 % of individuals were caught in october - november during 2002 . tachys scutellaris appears as a new species in 2002 , but was present in 1983\u20131984 , but at another station located below the mean sea level ( slikke habitat : fouillet 1986 ) . the \u2018appearance\u2019 of several species , sampled in low numbers in 2002 , can be due to differences in sampling effort and / or to random catches .", "enter the name or part of a name you wish to search for . the asterisk character * can be used as wildcard . e . g .

wasylik 1970 ; tietze 1973 ; den boer 1977 ; brandmayr and zetto brandmayr 1986 ; \u00f8stbye and h\u00e4gvar 1996 ; gryuntal 2008 ; makarov and matalin 2009 ) .", "however , doubts concerning the reliability of the obtained results were already expressed during the first pitfall trap studies and have been discussed subsequently ( for example , see adis 1979 ) . numerous factors have been found to affect pitfall trap catches , such as , the size of a trap and its inlet ( luff 1975 ; waage 1985 ; work et al . 2002 ; koivula et al . 2003 ) , the colour of a trap ( buchholz et al . 2010 ) , the presence and type of preservative ( luff 1968 ; feoktistov 1980 ; gryuntal 1982 ; karpova and matalin 1992 ; weeks and mcintyre 1997 ) and the ways of setting traps across habitats ( greenslade 1964 ; perner and schueler 2004 ; korczycski and sienkiewicz 2006 ) . in addition , the mobility of beetles in relation to both their physiological condition and the environment vary widely in the course of a season and between seasons ( den boer 1977 ; van huizen 1977 , 1979 ; baars 1979 ; matalin 1994 , 1997 , 2003 ; desender 2000 ) .", "towards the second half of the 20th century it became clear that pitfall trapping reflected not as much the abundance as the locomotor activity of beetles . numerous steps have been taken to increase the reliability of the results of catches : changes in trap construction ( reeves 1980 ; boucher 1981 ; kuschka et al . 1987 ; loreau 1987 ; dufr\u00eane 1988 ; makarov and tshernyakhovskaya 1990 ; karpova and matalin 1992 ; kuschka 1998 ) and in the type of preservative used ( louda 1970 ; feoktistov 1980 ; gryuntal 1982 ; pekar 2002 ) , exhaustive catches from enclosed areas ( kudrin 1971 ; gryuntal 1981 ; desender and maelfait 1986 ) , the calculation of correction coefficients from the re - trapping of marked specimens ( holland and smith 1991 ; raworth and choi 2001 ) , and the comparisons of dynamic ( pitfall trapping ) and static ( standard soil fauna quadrate sampling ) population densities ( kudrin 1966 ; arnoldi et al . 1972 ; desender and segers 1985 ; spence and niemel\u00e4 1994 ) . in spite of these important advances , standard pitfall trapping has \u2018de facto\u2019 become a standard technique used in synecological investigations of carabidae .", "at the same time , when pitfall - trapped data are interpreted , the beetles\u2019 migratory capacities are often ignored . this is because there is no universal technique for quantitatively estimating beetle locomotion ( den boer 1977 ; prisnyi 1987 ) . interpretation of life cycles to evaluate the demographic structure of local populations can provide a new approach to solving this problem . for example , a significantly deficient demographic structure recently observed in some carabid species in agricultural or disturbed habitats shows that in many places the populations are represented only by certain \u2018age groups\u2019 ( borkowski and szyszko 1984 ; wallin 1989 ; makarov and tshernyakhovskaya 1989 ; tshernyakhovskaya 1990 ; khotuleva 1997 ) . according to data obtained by bokhovko ( 2006 ) , five of the 11 dominant carabid species from arable soils in the kuban region , southern russia , demonstrated high abundance levels , coupled with incomplete demographic spectra . for example , in semi - centennial forest belts as well as in alfalfa fields , about 80 % of the dominants completed their development . on the other hand , in corn fields and in a forest belt with robinia , about 75 % of the carabid beetles did not complete their full life cycle .", "the last case clearly illustrates the probable scales of migration in carabidae , showing that populations are often incapable of reproducing in such environments . however , it still remains unclear whether this situation is general or not . we can assume that the proportion of species with incomplete demographic spectra represented in pitfall traps is higher in disturbed habitats , while in undisturbed or moderately disturbed habitats , the sex and age structures of the populations are more or less balanced .", "in the present study , we highlight a key methodological problem that the actual community structure ( e . g . , the roles of individual species ) cannot be understood based on pitfall counts alone . we also demonstrate how demographic analysis can be used to address this problem .", "ground beetle communities in the lake elton region , volgograd area , south -

like , encrusting , lace - like , box - like or columnar . these different forms develop in conjunction with the water flow where they are found . encrusting colonies are the initial growth form of these hydrocorals . in areas of strong water flow they will continue to encrust , but in a low water flow area they will develop into a lacy branching form similar to the", ", but not on a single plane . their branches can become leaf - like , blade - like , or even box - like in areas where the water flow increases in strength . thus the common names they are known for besides fire coral and stinging coral are branching fire coral , box coral , bladed fire coral , finger coral , ginger coral , and wello fire coral .", "don\u2019t be dissuaded from keeping fire corals because of their sting . they are interesting corals that are hardy and easy to propagate , just be careful and wear gloves . in the wild they are adaptable to many environments , thus contributing to their hardy nature . they let you know their lighting needs by their color , with yellow indicating perfect light and brown being \u201cnot enough . \u201d they also need strong water movement or they will not grow as much .", "genus was described by linnaeus in 1758 . this is the only genus in the milleporidae family . there are at least 48 species with a few being", "genus are found from the red sea , south to madagascar , then east toward australia ' s west coast in the houtman abrolhos island area . they are also found from the great barrier reef all the way around australia ' s north coast and mid way down the east coast . from new caledonia they occur all the way to the tuamotu islands then north to the hawaiian islands , circling back to the southern tip of japan . then they are found westward including all of indonesia and back to the red sea . some are also found in the atlantic oceans including the gulf of mexico and up to canada via north america\u2019s east coast .", "the fire coral is on the iucn red list for endangered species under least concerned . this is due to population reduction from habitat loss and reef degradation , however they recover quickly . in 10 years , if climate changes and ocean acidification persists , this will change the classification . the", "genus is commonly one of the first corals on the scene of a new reef and the last ones to leave when a reef is dying . they cover 10 % to 50 % of reefs , as well as being a small part of all reef building corals .", "some common names these hydrocorals are known for are bladed fire coral , wello fire coral , fire coral , box coral , firecoral , stinging coral , finger coral , ginger coral , and wello fire coral . the", "facing into a strong currents , they can make use of the passing plankton , small floating invertebrates , and other prey . they use the venomous cells ( nematocysts ) found in their tentacles to catch prey in these nutrient rich waters , but also to sting and deflect any possible threats or attacks .", "lc - least concern - they have experienced some habitat loss , however they recover quickly .", "genus grows in many formations , all dependent on water movement . they can form branching , laminar , encrusting and massive colonies . this genus is not considered a stony coral due to its internal structure . they do produce a hard aragonite skeleton , yet inside are canals that house all of the polyps and aid in food distribution . this makes them no where near as dense and hard as a stony coral . the smooth surface is densely dotted with mouths that look like small pores . the colors of the", "are usually a mustard yellow to dark brown and cream with white or lighter colored tips , with some rarer species being green or pink .", "at first glance this doesn ' t look anything like a typical fire coral . most are highly branched like small bushes . as it turns out though , there is an encrusting type of fire coral and this is it !", "on the smooth surface , the dense populations of pores are called called gastropores and they contain polyps in two sizes . the larger polyps are called gastrozooid polyps . they tend to stay within the corallum , ( not extending outward past the surface of the coral ) , and help to digest food and pass it through the colony within the skeletal structure . the smaller polyps surrounding this gastrozooid polyp are called dactylozooids , and they number between 5 to 7 . the dactylozooids look like tiny hairs that stick up beyond the surface , giving these hydrocorals a fuzzy appearance .", "the dactylozooids polyps have a strong toxin to sting prey . once stung , these polyps will then bring the food inward to the gastrozooid polyp in the middle , which will engulf the prey and digest it . these corals will burn your skin if you are not careful . they are a bane to divers and it is best to look and not touch in the wild .", "can grow up to 12 \" ( 30 cm ) in height . encrusting forms can sense nearby corals and will grow towards them and then encrust over them , using their structure as a base .", "is found in several areas that do not have strong wave action , and so are generally the branching form . this coral will typically overgrow and take the shape of any coral it gets near , especially gorgonians .", "is from the atlantic and are usually pink to cream with white or lighter colored tips . they tend to grow in a box -

sanaga - bioko coastal forests ecoregion comprises the lowland and coastal forests of southeastern nigeria , southwestern cameroon , and the lowlands of the island of bioko . the flora includes high numbers of endemic genera , indicating a long history of forest cover . these forests contain some of the highest rates of animal species richness of any african forest , especially in terms of forest - restricted mammals , birds and butterflies . many of these animals are endemic to this ecoregion or to the continguous atlantic coastal forests ecoregion , but others are found more widely across the congo basin . the ecoregion is heavily impacted by human use , including logging and plantation agriculture .", "description location and general description geographically this ecoregion extends from the left bank of the cross river in southeastern nigeria , follows the coast as far south as the sanaga river in cameroon , and extends inland up to 300 km . it also includes the lowland forests of the island of bioko . the forests above 800 m on mount cameroon and bioko , and above 900 m on other inland cameroon mountains are placed in the mount cameroon and bioko montane forests [ 9 ] and the cameroon highlands forests [ 10 ] ecoregions , respectively .", "the area is one of low topographic relief at the eastern and western margins , but of increasingly rugged topography in the foothills of the nigerian - cameroonian mountains . mangroves occur in two large and distinct patches on the coasts at the two extremities of the ecoregion , and are included in the central african mangroves ecoregion [ 116 ] .", "this entire ecoregion falls within the humid tropics . in the southwestern foothills of mt . cameroon and on southwest bioko , rainfall can exceed 10 , 000 mm per annum with little seasonal variation . away from the montane influence however , rainfall averages 3 , 000 mm per annum along the coast falling to around 2 , 000 mm inland and there can be a short but sometimes severe dry season of two to three months . humidity is always high , rarely dropping below 90 percent . temperatures range from a maximum of 27 to 33 oc , to a minimum of 15 to 21o c , with very minor seasonal differences . as in the atlantic equatorial coastal ecoregion , diurnal temperature ranges often exceed annual variations .", "a number of river systems drain from this ecoregion into the atlantic ocean . notable among these are the cross river , the northern boundary of the ecoregion , and the sanaga river , its southern boundary . other important rivers include the meme , wouri , kwa , ndian and nyong rivers .", "according to the phytogeographic vegetation classification by white ( 1983 ) , this lowland forest ecoregion falls within the lower guinea block of the guineo - congolian regional center of endemism . the principal vegetation is hygrophilous coastal evergreen rain forest , with mixed moist semi - evergreen rain forest further inland in the drier regions ( white 1983 ) . forest trees reach up to 50 m in height , and there are several distinct vegetation layers . the flora here shares affinities with other forest types in the lower and upper guinea blocks of the guineo - congolian lowland forest ( white 1979 ) . the most important families ( in terms of number of species ) are annonaceae , leguminosae , euphorbiaceae , rubiaceae and sterculiaceae . in general the forests are mixed , but tend to be dominated by caesalpinoid legumes .", "biodiversity features there is exceptional species richness in the rain forests of this ecoregion . combined with the atlantic equatorial coastal forests to the south , these two ecoregions support about 50 percent of the 7 , 000 to 8 , 000 plants endemic to tropical west africa ( cheek et al . 1994 ) , mainly in the coastal portion of cameroon . this ecoregion is a center of diversity for the genera cola ( sterculiaceae ) , diospyros ( ebenaceae ) , dorstenia ( moraceae ) , and garcinia ( guttiferae ) . there are also many endemic trees in these lowland forests , including : camplyospermum dusenii , deinbollia angustifolia , d . saligna , hymenostegia bakeri , medusandra richardsiana , and soyauxia talbotii . among large trees , the endemic microberlinia bisulcata is regarded as critically endangered . these biological features , especially the presence of endemic families and genera ( cheek et al . 1994 ) indicates a long evolutionary past .", "the forests of the cameroon - nigerian border are also known for harboring the highest forest butterfly species richness in africa ( larsen in prep ) , a finding that may be reflected in other invertebrate groups as well . this area also has very high vertebrate species richness , and contains the highest figures for forest restricted birds and mammals in africa ( burgess et al . 2000 ) .", "no bird species are endemic in this lowland ecoregion , but eighteen bird species are shared only with adjacent ecoregions . six of these were used to define an endemic bird area in the coastal portion of the congo basin forests ( stattersfield et al . 1998 ) .", "the biodiversity and management issues on bioko are summarized in fa ( 1991 ) . information on the lowland forests of cameroon is summarized by gartlan ( 1989 ) and iucn ( 1989 ) , and the area at the base of mount cameroon is summarized by cheek et al .

( 1986 , 1992 ) . stomach contents of the river redhorse were dominated by ephemeroptera ( 54 % ) and trichoptera ( 15 % ) larvae . diet ovelap was very low and gut contents varied according to the development of pharyngeal teeth . copper redhorse had the highest preference for molluscs ( 99 % of prey observed ) while molluscs represented about 25 % of the river redhorse diet and less than 15 % of the diet of the greater redhorse , shorthead redhorse and silver redhorse .", "in addition to sucker and redhorse species , competition for food may occur with other native ( mongeau et al . 1986 , 1992 ) and non -

noire system and in the richelieu river ( mongeau et al . 1992 ) . the recent introduction of tench ( tinca tinca ) in the upper richelieu and its capacity to rapidly spread into the st . lawrence river system also adds a potential competitor to the copper redhorse and river redhorse ( dumont et al . 2002 ) .", "this species\u2019 habitat is under great pressure from agriculture , urbanisation and recreational activities . habitat degradation is related to the majority of the threats to the recovery of the copper redhorse . this degradation can be caused by erosion and increased suspended matter owing to agriculture , deforestation and urbanisation , by contamination of water with pollutants disrupting the reproduction process , and by the premature aging of the rivers . dams that fragment habitat and represent obstacles to migration , decreased water levels and disturbance by boaters and anglers are other threats to the copper redhorse .", "several actions have been taken to promote the recovery of the copper redhorse . the vianney - legendre fish ladder was constructed in 2001 so that the copper redhorse can move up the richelieu river to spawning grounds in the chambly rapids . this fish ladder is operated by parks canada . the chambly rapids spawning grounds are protected by the pierre - \u00e9tienne - fortin wildlife preserve , created in 2002 by the minist\u00e8re des ressources naturelles et de la faune du qu\u00e9bec in order to ensure a peaceful reproduction period . an awareness campaign is also taking place in the wildlife preserve , in order to educate boaters and the public about the copper redhorse . this campaign , carried out by the comit\u00e9 de concertation et de valorisation du bassin versant de la rivi\u00e8re richelieu , is financed in part by the habitat stewardship program for species at risk .", "in quebec , river redhorse occurrence has been related to the presence of the copper redhorse , showing an affinity for lowlands rivers of medium size characterized by abrupt banks and uniformely deep channels ( 4 - 7 m ) flowing over a solid clay , sand or gravel bottom exposed to rather slow currents and interspersed by sections of rapids suitable for spawning ( mongeau et al . 1986 , 1992 ) .", "despite these knowledge gaps , the available information on the copper redhorse is significant and of high quality considering how rare the species is . further efforts to collect more information should avoid manipulation of specimens as much as possible as this presents a threat to the survival of the species .", "quebec legislation also provides general protection of fish habitat under the environment quality act . the act respecting the conservation and development of wildlife , under articles 128 . 1 to 128 . 18 , controls activities that could modify biological , physical and chemical components peculiar to fish habitat . the act respecting threatened or vulnerable species makes additional provision for the protection of the habitat of threatened or vulnerable species . finally , the pierre - \u00e9tienne - fortin wildlife refuge , created in 2002 for the protection of the copper redhorse spawning grounds in the chambly rapids ( richelieu river ) , also protects river redhorse habitat from activities that could disturb the river bed and flow characteristics . access to the refuge sectors where the copper redhorse and river redhorse spawn is forbidden between june 20 and july 20 ( gendron and branchaud 2001 ) .", "many questions still remain concerning the distribution range and habitat of immature copper redhorse , particularly about the downstream migration and survival of larvae , the presence of sites in the richelieu river where juveniles congregate , habitat characteristics , and the threats to the habitat and survival of sub - adult fish .", "the copper redhorse is the focus of increasing interest on the part of the general public and different organizations . this recovery strategy aims to coordinate the various actions that must be taken to complete the work already accomplished to prevent the disappearance of this species which is endemic to canada . it also includes the identification of the critical habitat of the species : grass bed inhabited by adult copper redhorse in the st . lawrence river , the littoral area along the richelieu river used by juveniles and for migration , and the rapids of the chambly and saint - ours dams , used for spawning .", "spawning habitat in order to identify the critical spawning habitat of the copper redhorse , experts have studied the needs and behaviour of the species , the use of the rapids below the chambly and saint - ours dams and the size of potential spawning habitat in the richelieu river ( dfo , 2010b ) . the spawning behaviour of the copper redhorse involves two or more males for each female . the copper redhorse appears to use the same sites as the other redhorse species , and apparently experiences reduced levels of competition at these sites due to the late onset of spawning . it adapts to environmental conditions and remains relatively faithful to spawning sites . the area required for spawning was estimated to be 1 m2 per female ( trio ) which corresponds to a minimum required area of 2 , 000 m2 for 2 , 000 females ( to meet the objective of 4 , 000 mature individuals ) . this value was extrapolated from known data from other redhorse species . the size of the potential spawning sites in the richelieu river is estimated at 583 , 064 m2 ( chambly : 488 , 364 m2 and saint - ours : 94 , 700 m2 ) . this potential area has been calculated based on the location of the spawning grounds , the drifting of eggs , resting places for spawners and the variability of the substrate and hydraulic conditions . thus , the critical spawning habitat identified in this recovery strategy appears sufficient to meet the objective of a recovered population of 4 , 000 copper redhorse spawners .", "the copper redhorse , moxostoma hubbsi , is an endangered species endemic to quebec . the presence of contaminants , in particular endocrine disrupting chemicals ( edcs ) , in its habitat has been advanced as partly responsible for the reproductive difficulties encountered by the species . in the present study , immature copper redhorse were exposed to the estrogenic surfactant nonylphenol ( np ; 1 , 10 and 50\u00b5g / l ) and the synthetic estrogen 17\u03b1 - ethinylestradiol ( ee2 ; 10ng / l ) for 21 days in a flow - through system . the endpoints investigated included general health indicators ( hepatosomatic index and hematocrit ) , thyroid hormones , sex steroids , brain aromatase activity , plasma and mucus vitellogenin ( vtg ) , cytochrome p4501a protein expression and ethoxyresorufin -

invasive biomarker to evaluate copper redhorse exposure to edcs in the environment and contribute to restoration efforts of the species . the results of the present study indicate that exposure to high environmentally relevant concentrations of np and ee2 can affect molecular endpoints related to reproduction in the copper redhorse .", "due to restrictive spawning habitat ( water depth and substrate ) preferences , river redhorse recruitment is vulnerable to changes in the flow regime and siltation of spawning habitats . large increases in discharge during the spawning period have been observed to prevent the spawning of other redhorse species ( bowman 1970 ; cooke and bunt 1999 ) . river redhorse is also a late spring spawner and as such is significantly smaller at the end of the first growing season than earlier spawning redhorse species ( vachon 1999a ) . as over - winter survival of yoy is size - selective ( sogard 1997 ) , yoy river redhorse are less likely to survive than earlier spawning species . lastly , river flows during spawning are lower compared to earlier spawning redhorse species and the river\u2019s capacity to dilute chemicals is reduced . in the richelieu river , late spring spawning coincides with period of peak pesticide application . in the yamaska and richelieu rivers , gendron and branchaud ( 1997 ) provide evidence that the final steps of sexual maturation by copper redhorse ( another late spawner ) in these rivers is disrupted by exposure to agricultural , urban and industrial toxins as they congregate to spawn . in the mid - 1990s , poor river redhorse gonadal condition was observed in specimens collected from this area .", "the copper redhorse ( moxostoma hubbsi ) is the only fish whose distribution is exclusively restricted to quebec . this range is restricted even further to the st . lawrence river and some of its tributaries . at the present time , the richelieu river is the only body of water in which reproductive activity has been confirmed .", "in november 2004 , the copper redhorse population was designated endangered by the committee on the status of endangered wildlife in canada . in december 2007 , the population was listed as endangered in schedule i of the species at risk act . in 1999 , it was designated threatened under the quebec act respecting threatened or vulnerable species .", "when invasive exotic species such as the tench , round goby , zebra mussel , european water chestnut and common water reed establish themselves in an environment , they bring changes to the physical environment and to the food chain . however , the effects of these introduced species on the copper redhorse population have not been sufficiently well documented .", "river redhorse populations may be at risk due to recreational angling activity , in particular the grand river population where angling for redhorse is reported to occur ( portt et al . 2003 ) . during spring spawning runs , congregative behaviour likely increases the susceptibility of river redhorse to recreational angling or spearfishing . the river redhorse is not afforded protection by catch limits , minimum size restrictions , or spearfishing regulations ( mcallister et al . 1985 ; ontario fishing regulations 1989 ) . due to lack of regulation and vulnerability during the spawn , populations may be affected to a degree . additionally , confusion with other sucker species may result in unknown harvesting and be a factor in decline of local populations ( parker and mckee 1984 ) . this potential threat has not been quantified . in quebec , to prevent accidental catch of the copper redhorse and river redhorse , sportfishing is prohibited for sucker species in the sectors of the richelieu , des mille iles , yamaska and noire rivers where both species cohabit . commercial catch of these two species is also prohibited in quebec .", "cosewic ( 2004 ) provided the following summary : the copper redhorse and its habitat receive a level of protection under the federal fisheries act , the quebec act respecting the conservation and development of wildlife , and environment quality act . additional measures include amendments to the sport fishing regulations in a number of sectors used by the copper redhorse and the creation of the pierre - \u00e9tienne - fortin wildlife preserve at chambly in october 2002 . the objective of the wildlife preserve is to protect the integrity of the largest spawning site and prevent disturbances of spawners and encroachment on spawning sites during the spawning period . the copper redhorse was designated threatened in 1987 by the committee on the status of endangered wildlife in canada ( cosewic ) . in april 1999 , it was designated threatened under the quebec act respecting threatened or vulnerable species . this is the most critical status that can be applied to a species under quebec legislation and is used when the loss of the species is feared . currently , the survival of the species hinges essentially on protection and reintroduction efforts .", "except for quebec rivers supporting copper redhorse , the river redhorse is the last of the moxostoma species to spawn each year ( mongeau et al . 1992 ) . american populations of river redhorse begin spawning in mid - april to mid - may at water temperatures between 18\u00b0and 24\u00b0 c ( jenkins and burkhead 1993 ) . canadian populations spawn later in the year , usually beginning in late may or early june and ending in late june ( reid 2003 ) . in the chambly rapids of the richelieu river , spawning typically occurs between the second and last week of june at temperatures between 17\u00b0 and 20\u00b0 c . this period overlaps with the spawning period of the greater redhorse and copper redhorse ( mongeau et al . 1992 ; la haye et al . 1992 ) . both sexes were observed in spawning condition once water temperatures reached 15 . 5\u00b0 c ( early june ) in the trent river ( reid 2003 ) . spawning -

( 1967 ) described this process for river redhorse in the cahaba river , alabama : \u201cthe female approaches the nest as the male performs a nuptial dance , darting back and forth , then a second male joins in . once the second male is present the female swims between them . at this point the males press tightly against the female and all three vibrate across the bottom , releasing eggs and milt and burying the eggs in one sweeping pass . \u201d aggregations of two or three river redhorse were observed at the trent river spawning locations ( reid 2003 ) supporting previous observations of hackney et al .

jenkins and burkhead 1993 ; mongeau et al . 1986 , 1992 ; vachon 2003a ) and likely disappeared from watersheds highly developed for intensive industrial agriculture , such as the yamaska and ch\u00e2teauguay rivers in quebec .", "larval drift is important for the dispersion of moxostoma species to suitable rearing habitats ( d ' amours et al . 2001 ) . for example , the nursery habitat for yoy river redhorse in the richelieu river is 21 km downstream from the spawning site in the bassin of chambly ( vachon 1999a ) .", "introgression among catostomid species due to habitat alteration has been identified as a conservation concern in western north america where hybridization between catostomid species is often common . however , hybridization is unknown or rare in most eastern suckers ( jenkins and burkhead 1993 ) . of thousands of moxostoma specimens examined , only two cases of hybridization have been reported ( jenkins 1970 ; jenkins and burkhead 1993 ) . this included a single river redhorse hybrid with either a shorthead or greater redhorse . barriers to hybridization among moxostoma species include aggressive behaviour and differences in spawning time , temperature and habitat ( curry and spacie 1984 ;

ready males captured from both the trent river and grand river were smaller than females ( trent river : \u2642mean tl = 603 mm ; \u2640mean tl = 641 mm . grand river : \u2642mean tl = 627mm ; \u2640mean tl = 662 mm ) ( s . reid unpubl . data ) .", "riverine habitat in canada is also threatened by the construction of hydroelectric dams and other barriers . increased energy demands in ontario and quebec may result in the construction of new hydroelectric facilities , or the conversion of run - of - river facilities to peaking facilities . dam construction has already heavily fragmented the madawaska , mississippi , ottawa , trent , yamaska , richelieu , and ch\u00e2teauguay rivers and the lower reaches of the grand river , increasing the risk of local extirpation due to limited immigration or emigration of the river redhorse population . suitable spawning habitat is primarily limited to the tailwater areas downstream of these locks and dams . maintenance of sufficient flows through these habitats during spawning is necessary for successful river redhorse reproduction ( reid 2002 ) . in addition , due to the number of barriers , available habitat becomes limiting as movement between habitats and populations is restricted . recovery of river redhorse populations after disturbances through emigration is expected to be limited by the number of dams along the rivers it inhabits ( reid 2002 ) .", "rearing and migration habitat the habitats frequented by young - of - the - year and sub - adults may be generally described as shallow littoral zones exposed to weak currents and with aquatic - grass beds . these habitats are relatively evenly distributed all along the richelieu river and the size of the grass beds available in the richelieu river remains unknown . this is why a bathymetric approach has been recommended to identify critical juvenile rearing habitat . given the current hydrological conditions of the richelieu river , restoration of lost grass beds would be problematic . the littoral zone frequented by juvenile copper redhorse is between 0 and 3 m deep . however , the critical habitat which has been identified in the richelieu river covers the littoral zone which is 0 to 4 m deep in order to include the migration corridor used by spawners .", "river redhorse has the potential to re - establish populations in waters where they have been extirpated when other populations exist nearby ( jenkins and burkhead 1993 ) . however , in many of the rivers in which they reside , low population sizes and the presence of barriers to immigration ( i . e . dams ) reduce their ability to recover from disturbances .", "it is possible that the methods used to gather information on the total distribution range skewed the results partially to the detriment of lac saint - louis . the information obtained through an analysis of the commercial fishery in lac saint - pierre is based on incidental catches , while research activity itself is concentrated on the portion of the population located in the richelieu river and st . lawrence river , downstream of montr\u00e9al . moreover , no sampling program has been carried out in the rivi\u00e8re noire and rivi\u00e8re yamaska since 1995 . though these environments have been severely degraded and minimum water flow within them greatly reduced , neither the presence nor absence of the species in these rivers can be confirmed . questions also remain concerning factors ( e . g . inadequate grass beds ) which could explain why some areas of potential summer habitat in the fluvial lakes are less frequented by copper redhorse .", "critical habitat for the copper redhorse has been identified to the extent possible , based on the best available information . this critical habitat consists of aquatic grass beds in the st . lawrence river , the littoral zone of the richelieu river and the rapids below the saint - ours and chambly dams ( figures 4 to 9 ) . the grass beds provide rearing and feeding habitats while the rapids are used as spawning grounds . critical habitat identified in the littoral zone of the richelieu river is used for rearing and by adults to migrate to the spawning grounds . the critical habitat identified in the present recovery strategy is essential for the survival and recovery of the species but it is insufficient to reach the population objectives . the schedule of studies presented in section 7 . 2 outlines the research deemed necessary to complete the identification of critical habitat in order to meet population and distribution objectives .", "the anatomical specialization of the river redhorse for feeding on molluscs may increase this species\u2019 susceptibility to extirpation . over much of the north american range of this species the molluscan fauna has declined ( williams et al . 1993 ) . the invasion of the great lakes and st . lawrence river by zebra mussels ( dreissena polymorpha ) has reduced the availability of the native species of molluscs and changed the bioaccumulation process of contaminants . it is not known to what extent river redhorse are consuming the large biomass of the newly established zebra mussel or its effect on growth rate . likely the result of poor caloric value , french and bur ( 1996 ) reported that zebra mussel - dominated diets reduced growth rate of adult freshwater drum ( aplodinotus grunniens ) in lake erie .", "the successful recovery of the copper redhorse will depend on the commitment and cooperation of the many concerned parties who will participate in the implementation of the recommendations put forward in this strategy . success will not depend solely on fisheries and oceans canada or any one jurisdiction . in the spirit of the accord for the protection of species at risk , the ministers of fisheries and oceans canada and parks canada invite all canadians to join with fisheries and oceans canada and parks canada in supporting and implementing the strategy , for the good of the species and of canadian society as a whole . fisheries and oceans canada and parks canada are committed to providing support for the implementation of the strategy , subject to the availability of resources and the various priorities regarding the conservation of species at risk . other jurisdictions and agencies will participate in implementing the strategy according to their respective policies , allocated resources , priorities , and budgetary constraints .", "while the river redhorse has been reported from both lakes and rivers within its canadian range , the persistence of this species relies upon access to suitable riverine spawning habitat . past studies have indicated a preference for habitats with moderate to swift current , riffle - run habitat and clean coarse substrates ( hackney et al . 1967 ; scott and crossman 1973 ; becker 1983 ; yoder and beaumier 1986 ; parker 1988 ; campbell 2001 ; reid 2002 ; 2003 ) . yoder and beaumier ( 1986 ) observed densities eight times greater in locations of preferred habitat than at pooled and impoundment locations in an ohio river . summer trap - net sampling on the mississippi river resulted in the capture of river redhorse in run habitat , suggesting that its habitat requirements may be more extensive than previously thought ( campbell 2001 ) . summer sampling of river redhorse resulted in capture in areas of abundant aquatic vegetation , fairly slow current and soft substrates ( campbell 2001 ) . compared to the spawning period ( june ) , lower catch per unit effort numbers in fall sampling of fastwater habitats along the trent river suggest that deeper run / pool habitats are used during other periods of the year ( reid 2003 ) ."]}

sized pieces . they get large , too , so if you want to keep one as a pet , be prepared to have a very high feeder - fish bill . in fact , it can grow to about twice the size of its almost identical looking relative , the sabertooth characin hydrolycus armatus . this fish can reach up to about 4 feet ( 117 cm ) in length and weigh up to 40 lbs ( 18 kg ) , though aquarium specimens are usually only reach a quarter of that size , around 12 inches .", "the vampire tetra can be kept in a large aquarium , but it takes a lot of work by a very advanced hobbyist to accomplish this . they are occasionally available and will readily adapt to aquarium life , but they are most often short - lived . they often only survive for 6 months to a year in captivity , with just a few having been reported as living up to 2 years . their short lifespan is due , in part , to their diet and their need for a top quality environment . vampire characin need a varied diet , so just feeding them goldfish is inadequate . sometimes , payara refuse to feed . it seems that once they reach about 12 inches , they mysteriously die .", "my first experiences with payara were some 20 years ago now ( i can\u2019t believe i am even old enough to say that ! ) . anyway , i can remember cruising through the aisles of my favorite pet shops , and once in a while i would come across these big flashy silver fish with absolutely gargantuan teeth . i remember thinking they were such ugly and nasty critters , almost freakish - looking water wolves . who on earth would want such a thing in their tank ? granted , at the time i was into barbs and smaller \u201ccommunity\u201d species , and big predatory fishes were simply not an option for my 20 - gallon aquarium . fast - forward to 2006 and my , how things have changed !", "i would recommend attempting to train your payara off live food at an early age . i have had better luck with them learning this at a young age . it seems the older they get the more stubborn they get . the last batch i have obtained was a pack of 5 armatus at roughly the size of a quarter . they were actually to small to even eat rosies ( or tuffies ) so they were fed guppies up until about 2 inches . at that point they were switched to rosies . kept on rosies for about another 1 - 1 . 5 inches . i believe i made a mistake in how long i fed rosies . i believe you may have better luck getting them off live if you are to start feeding goldfish as soon as they are big enough to eat them . this will greatly increase your chances in getting them to go after krill as they are both orange in color , and the shape of freeze dried krill has more in common with goldfish then a rosie does .", "html public \" -

arshan mausoleum is konye urgench ' s oldest surviving monument . it contains the grave of il arslan [ 8 ] , the father of sultan tekish . the dome in the form of a tent and the facade of the monument with a pattern of bricks are the first of this type and were the prototype for similar buildings in samarkand .", "nedjameddin kubra mausoleum was built in the 14th century it is considered as the holiest place in konye urgench . nedjameddin kubra lived in the 12th / 13th centuries . he was born in khiva and became a famous religious teacher known as ' designer of saints ' . he left several treatises on mystic experiences , founded an important sufic order and was killed by the mongols .", "konye is made up of 36 villages with the main ethnic groups being bakundu , bafaw , mbonge and balong . but due to it fertile soil and hospitality it has invited many strangers from different ethnicity such as the bayangi\u2019s , bikom\u2019s , meta\u2019s , and nigerians . it is worth nothing that the bafaw and the balong are the minority with six and one villages respectively , while the mbonge and bakundu have 17 and 15 villages respectively .", "the bakundu , bafaw , balong , mbonge are the main dialects spoken in konye . traditional dishes are mekere na donga ( plantains and peper ) , mberibi ( coco leaf with bush meat soup ) . their traditional attire is sanja and white shirt or jumper and kaba for women . the chief wears sanja , white shirt and a red cap with the feather of a parrot , while the traditional heads wears sanja , white shirt , a black cap with the feather of a cock .", "our band of sleepy travellers has had a very early morning flight from ashgabat to dashoguz in turkmenistans far north east . our bleary eyed departure and comfort along the way was courtesy of a very spiffy , efficient and modern but not ostentatious airport and a very efficient and modern state airline . top marks turkmenistan ! we are here to visit the great historic capital of the khorazem empire , konye urgench which is 100km to the north of dashoguz . konye urgench was the lynch pin of trade , religious study and intellectual endeavour on the northern most branch of the silk road in ancient times . it suffered badly at the hands of successive invaders and is now a ruin . as a consequence turkmen have a very jaundiced view of arabs , mongols and uzbeks . most especially the latter since the mongol - uzbek timur or tamerlane as he is known in the west came calling four times before totally destroying the city and ploughing the ground with salt . he was a tyrant typical of his time but now is an uzbek national hero .", "the following animal species are significantly found in konye : mammals bushpig ( potamochoerus porcus ) , antelope ( antilocapra americana ) , monkey ( cercopithedae ) , porcupine ( erethison dorsatum ) , deer ( odocoileus hemionus ) , catarh beef , ) , ruminants cutting grass ( thryonomyidae ) , rat mould ( rattus rattus ) , squirrel ( rodentia sciurus ) , reptiles ( snakes ) , livestock ( goats , sheep , pigs , fowls , rabbits snails ) the trend of rare species reduces as you move away from the enclave forest areas towards more settlement zones .", "sorry to say that the aral sea is no more and the mighty amu darya river will die the death of a thousand cuts if mr okhunabanaev\u2019s relatives continue to siphon off its water to \u2018flood irrigate\u2019 tens of thousands of hectares of cotton . if you live in the middle of a desert it doesn\u2019t pay to take water for granted . that lesson was learned at ancient konye urgench and at more than 500 other cities of antiquity that relied on the fickle course of the amu darya . in these parts a river can be here today and gone tomorrow .", "sultan tekish mausoleum is the mausoleum of sultan tekish [ 7 ] , shah of khorezm in the 12th century , who conquered a huge territory from the aral sea the the persian gulf and from what is today iran to the pamir . this mausoleum is one of the few monuments in konye urgench surviving from pre - mongol times . the dome was richly decorated with blue tiles and geometrical patterns . the mausoleum was 30 meters high and serves both as a lighthouse in the desert and as a symbol of authority ( as it stood high above ordinary houses ) .", "as the farmers bring their cocoa together , they are able to sell at better prices , therefore each farmer who belongs to a cooperative earns more money selling to the cooperative than a farmer who sells independebntly to other buyers , so that is an advantage we gain as members of the cooperative . because of the cooperative we are able to influence the situation . i would say that konye community is relatively better in terms of forest management because today we train farmers to know that even we have to cultivate cocoa we have to also allow other trees to stay as canopies for this cocoa and also to check the ecosystem to protect the cocoa and also to increase their revenue because when you harvest cocoa and you harvest other crops from the other economic trees you are able to make more money so this is a practice we are implementing today in order to save the forest .", "html public \" -

like protrusions on the front of their heads . but whereas the trunks of elephants are extensions of their noses , the trunks of elephantfish are extensions of their mouths .", ", peters ' elephantnose fish are second to none . their fascinating appearance , with the lower lip extended like a long snout , is accompanied by a high degree of intelligence and intriguing behaviour . although they can be shy , patience and care will encourage them to be friendly , active participants in the aquarium community .", "according to bonn , statistical analyses showed identical performance as they swapped between vision and electrical impulses . also , they did it with a consistency that indicates that all elephantnose fish share this talent .", "peters ' elephantnose fish ( gnathonemus petersii ) is common to the slower rivers of west africa , where it hunts for insect larvae just before dawn and after sunset . it ' s also one of a number of fish equipped with an electrical organ that allows it to generate a weak electrical field that allows it to sense its immediate environment like a living motion detector . it also has eyes that it uses to navigate as well as to track and catch its supper .", "as to why the elephantnose can do this , the bonn team hasn ' t speculated , but it could be that the fish uses a specialized algorithm or processing system , the job of sense - swapping is less complex than believed , or fish are just really clever .", "peters\u2019 elephantnose fish are native to the rivers of west and central africa , in particular the lower niger river basin , the ogun river basin and in the upper chari river . it prefers muddy , slowly moving rivers and pools with cover such as submerged branches . it is a dark brown to black in colour , laterally compressed ( averaging 23\u201325 cm ) , with a rear dorsal fin and anal fin of the same length . its caudal or tail fin is forked . it has two stripes on its lower pendicular . its most striking feature , as its names suggest , is a trunk - like protrusion on the head . this is not actually a nose , but a sensitive extension of the mouth , that it uses for self - defense , communication , navigation , and finding worms and insects to eat . this organ is covered in electroreceptors , as is much of the rest of its body . the elephantnose fish has poor eyesight and uses a weak electric field , which it generates by muscular contractions , to find food , to navigate in dark or turbid waters , and to find a mate . peters\u2019 elephantnose fish live to about 6 - 10 years , but there are reports of them living even longer .", "peters\u2019 elephantnose fish is probably the most commonly - available mormyrid in aquarium stores in the usa . in the aquarium ( which should be at least 200 liters ) it is timid , preferring a heavily planted environment with subdued lighting . ideally , a pipe or hollow log should be provided . the substrate should ideally be soft sand to allow the fish to sift through it with its delicate extended lip . it feeds on small worms ( bloodworms ) and aquatic invertebrates such as mosquito larvae , but in the aquarium will usually accept frozen or even flake food . how peaceful an elephantnose fish is can depend on the individual ; some are quite aggressive with other species , while others are retiring . they may be kept in a community aquarium with peaceful species who share their water preferences . however , unless kept in an aquarium of over 400 liters , it is unwise to keep more than one elephantnose fish as they can be territorial . the conditions suggested to keep them in an aquarium are as follows : ph of 6 . 8 to 7 . 2 , water temperature 26 to 28 degrees celsius , and water of medium hardness . the substrate should always be something that does not irritate the sensitive snout of the fish .", "the weak electrical impulses generated by this fish can be made audible by placing two electrodes in the fish tank , which are then hooked up to an audio amplifier or a piezoelectric earbud . the sonar -

living matter , because capacitance is a property of living organisms . african mormyrids and south american gymnotiforms use different mechanisms for capacitance detection . mormyrids detect capacitance -

8 % of resting body o2 consumption , suggesting that evolution has put strict limits on the energetic cost of brain function . only man , with a value of 20 % , is an exception to this rule . however , the results presented here suggest that , in the electric fish gnathonemus petersii , the brain is responsible for approximately 60 % of body o2 consumption , a figure three times higher than that for any other vertebrate studied , including man . the exceptionally high energetic cost of the g . petersii brain appears to be a consequence both of the brain being very large and of the fish being ectothermic . it was also found that g . petersii has a high ability to utilise o2 at low levels . thus , during falling [ o2 ] , this species was found to maintain both its o2 uptake and its electric discharge rate down to an ambient o2 level of 0 . 8 mg l - 1 ( at 26 & deg ; c ) , although it was unable to tolerate an [ o2 ] below 0 . 3 mg l - 1 . during severe hypoxia ( < 0 . 8 mg l - 1 ) , g . petersii attempted to gulp air from the water surface . these results establish a new record for the energetic cost of a vertebrate brain and they show that the species possessing such a brain has a high capacity for utilising o2 at very low ambient concentrations ."]}

"depending on the food type , adult butterflies can be classified into three guilds : nectar - feeding , fruit - feeding , and a combination of both ( gilbert 1972 ; devries 1988 ; devries et al . 1997 ; devries and walla 2001 ; molleman et al . 2005 ; \u00f4mura and honda 2009 ) . most butterfly adults are found in temperate regions and feed on nectar , while fruit - feeding butterflies are found mainly in tropical and subtropical regions and feed on rotting fruits , exuded tree sap , mud , carrion , and dung ( boggs and jackson 1991 ; \u00f4mura et al . 2000 ; devries and walla 2001 ;

behavior of pieris rapae ( honda et al . 1998 ; \u00f4mura et al . 1999a , b ; \u00f4mura and honda 2005 ) .", "experiments were performed at the experimental station of the research institute of

responses were averaged across individual trials and expressed as percentages of the response relative to the standard . data were normally distributed ; sexual differences in eag intensities were analyzed with a t - test . the intensity of eag responses to different compounds within males and within females were analyzed using analysis of variance , followed by the lsd test .", "k . inachus showed no attempted feeding or orientation responses to the four different single colors , suggesting that foraging adults were not innately sensitive to these colors , and that color is not a forging

were not correlated to the doses of chemicals ( ethanol : females r = - 0 . 194 ,", "> 0 . 05 ; ethyl acetate : females r = 0 . 071 ,", "alcohols , ketones , and esters were found in all six fruit volatiles , either as the majority components or at lower levels . esters were the main volatiles in most of the fruits tested . ethanol and acetic acid , both of which are characteristic volatile products of fermentation ( \u00f4mura et al . 2000 ; \u00f4mura and honda 2003 , 2009 ) , were not found in our samples .", "this result may be because the fruit was not thoroughly fermented . ripe fruits are high in aromatic volatiles , rather than producing decay odor ( molleman et al . 2005 ) . the six kinds of fruit were fermented under the same conditions , so the variations in volatile composition were most likely due to differences in the fruits themselves and to different microbial species associated with the juice extracts ( wood 1961 ; \u00f4mura et al . 2000 ) .", "although there was no ethanol or acetic acid in the fruit volatiles , the fruits emitted a variety of different types of chemicals and were strongly attractive to the butterfly , indicating that k . inachus uses a variety of food chemical signals .", "in behavioral tests , ethanol was the most attractive volatile , while acetic acid was the least attractive . in contrast , the perception of antennae to acetic acid in eag tests was the strongest , while ethanol was the weakest , regardless of whether the test dose was 5 or 50 \u00b5l / ml . this result showed acetic acid induces the strongest perception by antenna , but k . inachus showed the strongest preference for ethanol . thus , the compound that most strongly stimulated feeding behavior did not induce high eag responses , and eag responses did not totally reflect the food choices of adults foraging in the field ( honda et al . 1998 ; \u00f4mura and honda 2009 ) . this interesting result suggests that antennal perception of these olfactory cues was caused by a specific sensory system that selectively elicited feeding behavior ( \u00f4mura and honda 2009 ) . antennal perception is not only related to foraging behavior , but also involves a large number of other behavioral functions . therefore , the antennal perception of volatiles is not necessarily interpreted as a food signal ; some signals may relate to host recognition , to the identification of conspecific individuals , or to defense ( kreher et al 2008 ) .", "another striking result of the eag experiments was the differences found between genders for a few chemicals , such as 5 \u00b5l / ml butanone , 50 \u00b5l / ml acetic acid , and 100 \u00b5l / ml ethanol . these differences may be due to males and females differing in their dietary needs because of different reproductive strategies ( dierks and fischer 2008 ) . however , these differences were not consistent , as they changed at different volatile concentrations . different concentrations of the same compounds may reflect the distance between adult butterflies and food , but the relative eag responses of males and females to different concentrations of ethanol and ethyl acetate showed no significant correlation . the phenomenon may be caused by the tested concentration , which could have been higher than the perception threshold of the antenna of k . inachus .", "according to the results of our study , we conclude the following : 1 ) the foraging , adult k . inachus has no sensitivity to food color , but innately uses olfaction to detect and locate food ; 2 ) the adults feed on a wide range of fruits , so they also use a wide range of volatiles such as alcohols , esters , ketones , and terpenoids , and the coexistence of multiple chemical signals is most attractive ; 3 ) antennal perception is not only related to foraging behavior , but also involves a large number of other behavioral functions , such as hostrecognition and defense behavior , so feeding preference is not necessary correlated with eag responses .", "we thank yong cao , chuang jiang , zhen chen , tichu li , and chunzi luo for their participation in field observations , fei chen

( livecchi , le berre and ramousse ( 1977 [ 8 ] ) ) and makes various other approximations , such as 1mg of dry weight of prey being converted to 1mg fresh weight of spider . the resulting plot shows that it is quite reasonable for a well - fed a . quadratus to attain a mass of 2 . 5gm in a single season .", "neosconella parva bryant , 1945a : 381 , f . 19 , 24 ( d f , preoccupied in araneus by karsch , 1878 ) . araneus bryantae brignoli , 1983c : 262 ( replacement name ) . araneus bryantae levi , 1991a : 262 , f . 353 - 356 ( f ) .", "araneus anantnagensis tikader & bal , 1981 : 46 , f . 99 - 102 ( d f ) . araneus anantnagensis tikader , 1982a : 25 , f . 436 - 439 ( f ) .", "araneus panchganiensis tikader & bal , 1981 : 48 , f . 103 - 106 ( d f ) . araneus pachganiensis tikader , 1982a : 227 , f . 440 - 443 ( f ) .", "in synonymy : amamrotypus archer , 1951 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1973 : 478 ) aranea linnaeus , 1758 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( clerckian names validated by iczn direction 104 ; see also iczn opinion 2224 ) atea c . l . koch , 1837 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1991a : 171 ) cambridgepeira archer , 1951 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1973 : 478 ) cathaistela archer , 1958 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( yaginuma , 1959c : 28 ) conaranea archer , 1951 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1973 : 478 ) conepeira archer , 1951 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1973 : 478 ) neosconella f . o . pickard - cambridge , 1903 = araneus clerck , 1757 ( levi , 1973 : 478 )", "araneus viridisoma gravely , 1921a : 415 , f . 3c ( d m f ) . araneus viridisomus caleb & mathai , 2014c : 3 , f . 1 - 9 ( f ) . araneus viridisomus patil & uniyal , 2016 : 172 , f . 1 - 11 ( m f ) .", "araneus ishisawai kishida , 1928b : 474 , f . 41 ( d f ) . araneus ishisawai yaginuma , 1957a : 55 , f . 18 ( f ) . catheistela ishisawai yaginuma & archer , 1959 : 36 ( t f from araneus ) . araneus ishisawai namkung , paik & yoon , 1972 : 93 , f . 8 ( f ) . araneus ishisawai chikuni , 1989b : 63 , f . 4 ( f , d m ) . araneus seensis oliger , 1991 : 141 , f . 1 - 8 ( d m f ) [ urn : lsid : nmbe . ch : spidersp : 015189 ] . araneus ishisawai namkung , 2002 : 243 , f . 19 . 5a - b ( m f ) . araneus ishisawai namkung , 2003 : 245 , f . 19 . 5a - b ( m f ) . araneus ishisawai tanikawa , 2007c : 83 , f . 241 - 243 , 682 - 685 ( m f ) . araneus ishisawai tanikawa , 2009 : 455 , f . 258 - 261 ( m f ) . araneus ishisawai marusik , 2009f : 97 ( s ) . araneus ishisawai kim & lee , 2012b : 21 , f . 9a - c ( m f ) . araneus ishisawai baba & tanikawa , 2015 : 42 , 4 f .

fidelity over several years . in a few cases , ringing has confirmed that both male and female returned to the same territory year after year . usually the pair chooses a new nesting site , but occasionally it will occupy the same nesting tree or , indeed , the same branch , and it may even reuse materials from the previous year\u2019s nest or , rarely , the orioles will use the old nest , merely repairing it with some new material . both the eastern black -

pointed beak , or it may use a sequence of alternately pumping and raising its beak , a \u201csuck - and - tilt\u201d process . usually , this species drinks from tree hollows , takes dew or raindrops from branches or leaves , or flies closely above the surface of a waterbody and quickly dips its bill . in rare instances , it will also drink from rain puddles .", "although , with some members of the family , it appears that both sexes build the nest , incubate the eggs , and brood and feed the nestlings , this is the exception . more usually , it is exclusively or almost exclusively the female that incubates , for a period of 2\u20133 weeks , and that broods the nestlings , again for 2\u20133 weeks . while incubating , the female of the eurasian golden oriole leaves the nest to feed herself only for brief periods of about ten minutes , and rarely up to 38 minutes , but she leaves for longer foraging trips after the eggs have hatched . meanwhile , the male may feed her and he may also incubate or brood for short periods .", "telemetric studies of the eurasian golden oriole in northern germany showed that , during the breeding season , the adults foraged for 45 % of the time within 200 m of the nest and for 80 % of the time within 700 m of the nest , but they would travel 1\u20133 km for especially abundant food sources , such as plants infested with caterpillars . their foraging ranges increased significantly after the hatching of the eggs . sometimes , up to three immature or adult orioles , presumably previous offspring of the nesting pair , helped in the feeding of the young , especially in habitats with poor food availability . a similar phenomenon has been recorded for the australasian figbird , the nestlings of which are occasionally brooded and fed by extra males and females .", "html public \" -

with some very unique and interesting adaptations . the northern stargazer , astroscopus guttatus , is well adept to spending life buried in the sand , waiting to ambush its prey . it has evolved unusual and most shocking uses for its extraocular muscles . a . guttatus , is unique among teleosts , as it alone is the only marine species which has an electric organ . this species of stargazer is distributed around the western atlantic ocean , ranging from new york to north carolina , the northern stargazer is native to the bahamas . being a benthic dweller , the northern stargazer spends a lot if its life buried within the sandy surf zones and deeper sand \u2013 mud environments of inshore waters . the northern stargazer usually resides at depths of approximately 36m .", "this electric organ , located behind each eye , is innervated by only the oculomotor nerve and is capable of discharging up to 50 v . in astroscopus it consists of approximately 200 layers , although electorphorus may have 30 times that . some believed that astroscopus is capable of stunning a prey species of fish with the discharge , but it does not appear to be strong enough to do that , nor does it appear to be discharged at the right time for that effect . rather , the electric organ is used for defence to frighten off a potential predator , or perhaps to direct or attract prey .", "the fish will then wait quietly and watch until a small prey species approaches . it has at least one mechanism of attracting small fish if necessary . astroscopus has unique gill slits that discharge sea water that has passed over the gills . the water exits adjacent to the pectoral fin causing the sand just above the discharge to dance as if there were a small creature there . potential prey fish will come to investigate . some closely related fish have lingual lures , meaning that they have appendages extending from their tongue that resemble wriggling worms bringing prey species directly to the mouth to investigate , but astroscopus does not have such accoutrement .", "a withering glance can change the dynamic of a conversation , but imagine just such a glance having the capability to frighten or stun another . astroscopus ( latin \u201cstar seer\u201d ) can do just that . the northern stargazer lives off the east coast of north america and has evolved extraordinary and shocking uses for its extraocular muscles .", "being buried up to its eyes in sand may mean that the eyes must be proptosed above the body plane in order for the fish to see , and astroscopus must be able to do this since it is entirely a visual predator . the fish has an opercular cavity behind the eye that can be filled with fluid causing proptosis , raising the eyes above the level of the sand .", "still , astroscopus does often use its eyes for prey capture . as an adult , it captures smaller fish by stealth and decoy . these fish possess large , square heads and spend their lives buried up their eyes in sand . since , in the larval stage , the eyes are placed laterally on the body , the eyes must migrate towards the dorsal aspects of the head by the 50 mm stage , and by this stage , the fish has adopted a benthic , burrowing lifestyle . it is , in essence , a digger .", "the easy life : a . guttatus is quite lazy , spending most of its life lying under the sand waiting for the moment to ambush its unsuspecting prey . it is well adapted to life under the seabed \u2013 with modified pectoral fins that act as shovels , allowing this fish to bury itself within seconds , which can be seen in the video . one would expect living in such an environment would mean getting sand in all sorts of places , but does this matter to the northern stargazer ? no . the eyes and nostrils of this teleost are somewhat strategically positioned on the top of the head , so that they are always above the sand surface when the rest of the body is hidden in plain sight .", "once the prey item in in close proximity , the northern stargazer will start to put an end to the enticement with its an ocular tease . as the prey is approaching , a . guttatus will use its protruding eyes and move them in a semi circle to deceive the prey into thinking there is a tiny organism burrowing in that location . being curious creatures , the prey will come closer to investigate further , in doing so the organism must swim over the body of the northern stargazer towards the contralateral eyes . once the northern stargazer has its prey where it wants them , it will strike forwards and upwards , engulfing the whole of the prey ; as the opening of the mouth induces a vacuum , sucking in the prey . as one would say , curiosity killed the cat .", "the electric organ of a guttatus is not as powerful as that of electrophorus but is composed of portions of four extraocular muscles including the analogue for the superior , medial , and temporal recti as well as the superior oblique . the larval stage of this animal hatches from an egg deposited on the sea floor . the electric organ begins to develop when the larva is 12\u201315 mm long . at this stage the outer cells of these muscles begin to change into larger cells with multiple nuclei until these cells become six times the size of the normal extraocular muscle cells . these four muscles mentioned above contribute their outer layers to form a syncytium distinct from the extraocular muscles . the electric organ , then , resembles an organ separate from and external to the muscles and is histologically different from other electric organs in other fish .", "predator . the eyes are capable of protruding outwards for a short period of time . this feature allows the ambush predator to gaze over the immediate vicinity and scope for any nearby prey . the stargazer fills the opercular cavity behind each eye with fluid thus causing the eyes to proptose . breathing under water : being buried under the sand proves difficult when it comes to breathing , as the gills are covered however the northern stargazer has adapted to overcome this problem . unlike other teleost fish that use their gills to \u201cbreathe\u201d the northern stargazer uses nostrils to do so . similar to the eyes , the nostrils are located on the top of the head so that they don\u2019t get buried within the sand . fleshy comb \u2013 like fringes also help protect the nostrils from particles of sand from being breathed in . an intriguing date : the northern stargazer has a few tricks to entice prey to come closer before it strikes them down . one of which is using the unique gill slits to discharge water , causing the sand to mimic the action of a small critter moving . to the unaware victim , this movement of water and particles of sand will intrigue them and encourage them to go investigate further ; tricking them into thinking there is a potential for food and ushering the oblivious fish into the striking zone of a . guttatus .", "by continuing to browse the site you are agreeing to our use of cookies . find out more here", "electric fish are found in at least five orders , including torpediniformes ( electrogenic rays and skates ) gymnotiformes ( electric eel and others ) , siluriformes ( electric catfish ) , osteoglossiformes ( knifefishes ) and perciformes . perciformes has but one , albeit interesting , creature to contribute to this strange m\u00e9nage .", "most electric fish generate their charge from electroplaxes , which are collections of modified , stacked , and flattened muscle cells with a nerve leading to one side of this complex . the muscle cells are polarised in the same direction and generate their charge through the serial stacking and summation of these cells . they function more like a capacitor than a battery . with nervous stimulus , an electric discharge of these muscles cells can be generated . some , such as the electric eel ( electorphorus ) , can generate up to 500 v , capable of stunning , if not killing most fish it contacts . such a discharge can render a human unconscious or dead .", "for such a lifestyle , even the nostrils must be modified so that the fish can breathe through them while buried . the narial passages open on the dorsal surface , connect to the pharynx , and contain flaps and fimbrae to filter sand and prevent regurgitation .", "thanks to david b snyder for his comments on the essay and for the photographs .", "if you wish to reuse any or all of this article please use the link below which will take you to the copyright clearance center\u2019s rightslink service . you will be able to get a quick price and instant permission to reuse the content in many different ways .", "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 .", "eschmeyer , w . n . and fricke , r .

lobsters . the wcdscimf operates along side australia ' s largest rock - lobster fishery , the west coast rock - lobster managed fishery ( wcrlmf ) , where fishing generally occurs in 0\u2013200 m . although managed separately licencees in the wcrlmf are permitted to retain 12 deep - sea crabs , primarily champagne crabs , per day per boat . on the other hand , licencees in the south coast deep sea crab fishery are entitled to take champagne , giant and crystal crabs and as a result of the licensing framework surrounding the development of this fishery most fishers are also entitled to take southern rock lobster ( jasus edwardsii ) .", "the department of fisheries have records of various fishers from the 1960s , 1970s and 1980s expressing interest in establishing commercial fishing operations based on champagne , giant and \u2018deep - sea crabs\u2019 on the west coast . although most of these proposed ventures did not go any further , some small - scale exploratory fishing targeting champagne crabs by rock - lobster fishers was undertaken between 1985 and 1990 with some rekindled interest in the 1990s . champagne crab catches peaked between 30 and 45 tonnes from 1997 to 1999 , before decreasing to negligible levels ( < 100 kg ) from 2001onwards . the decrease in catches was in part due to a decline in champagne crab stocks , however low beach prices and increased interest in the more valuable crystal crab also contributed ( k . smith , murdoch university , australia , pers . comm . ) . therefore , on the west coast , management of giant and champagne crabs is primarily focused on ensuring biological sustainability and maintaining breeding stocks of the species rather than developing a viable commercial fishery .", "crystal crabs have only been targeted on the west coast since the late 1990s and the wcdscimf is now almost entirely dependent on the size and productivity of the crystal crab resource .", "figure 1 map of the w . a . coastline showing the crystal crab management zones and depth contours between 500\u20131000 m", "both giant and champagne crabs landings have been larger and more regular in the south coast crustacean fishery than on the west coast . since 1990 the combined giant and champagne crab catch has , in most years , been in excess of 30 tonnes , with occasional annual catches reaching 40 to 50 tonnes . in the past , crystal crabs have not formed a significant contribution to the south coast crustacean fishery , apart from one year ( 2002 ) when over 10 tonnes were landed before a moratorium was placed on targeting the species pending further research . the size and distribution of the fishable stock in this region is unknown .", "in 1991 it was recognized that with increasing interest in deep - sea crabs of all species there was a need to move to more formal management . in january 1992 following a request for expressions of interest , the minister for fisheries issued a press release announcing that by 1 april 1992 a plan would be in place to develop the fishery . this resulted in more than 80 expressions of interest for endorsements to take deep - sea crabs outside the rock - lobster fishery . in response , in june 1993 , 53 endorsements were approved ( 49 on the south coast and four on the west coast ) . a one - tonne catch per year minimum performance criteria was placed on each approved vessel . following a review of these allocations , in may 1993 a further three endorsements were granted on the west coast . in 1992 a commercial fisherman working in cooperation with the commonwealth scientific and industrial research organisation ( csiro , hobart , australia ) conducted some limited research fishing . the fishing focused on champagne and giant crabs , but was of limited success due to the size of the fishing vessel used and lack of gear suitable for fishing in depths greater than 150 m .", "new complexities were introduced into the management of both the scdscf and wcdscimf when permit holders realized the potential quantities of crystal crab available and the species ' commercial value . the dilemma is one that besets the managers of many new fisheries : i . e . on one hand faced with a previously unfished resource that has a potentially long term yield , together with an industry geared up and keen to exploit it ; while on the other hand having no catch history , biological information , or information on the spatial extent of the fishery . given the current focus in western australia on the exploitation of crystal crab , this paper deals only with a description of crystal crab catches on the west and south coasts of western australia and the proposed management of this resource .", "crystal crabs occurring off the western australian coast are considered at this stage to be chaceon bicolor , a species which is also found in the central pacific from the emperor seamount chain to eastern australia ( manning and holthuis 1989 ) and along the west and north coast of australia ( jones and morgan 1994 ) . at this stage chaceon appears to have a wide distribution , although some systematics experts have suggested that further work may show that the pale coloured specimens found off the western australian coast are a different species to the purple , tan and yellowish coloured specimens of c . bicolor found in the pacific . the depth distribution of chaceon species is reported to be between 275 and 1 600 m ( manning and holthuis 1989 ) . however on the western australian coast the species has only been reported in commercial catches from 450 to 1220 m ( lance hand , bellenden nominees , geraldon , australia , western australian museum records ) .", "until 1995 the take of deep - sea crabs seaward of the 200 m isobath was the responsibility of the australian commonwealth government and some 22 vessels were licensed by the commonwealth to fish for deep - sea crabs in commonwealth managed waters off western australia . however , under the offshore constitutional settlement agreement of 1995 , and on the basis of the links with the state managed rock - lobster fisheries , management of deep - sea crab fisheries became a state government responsibility .", "the fishery for crystal crabs began in 1997\u20131998 when one fisher undertook exploratory fishing for deep - sea crabs on the west coast between 34\u00b0 24 ' and 22\u00b0 19 s ' in depths of 540 to 1080 m . the promising catches of crystal crabs by this exploratory fishing trip generated more interest in commercially exploiting this fishery on the west coast and by the end of 1999 the catch had increased to almost 25 tonnes .", "the fishery was originally open to all 595 west coast rock - lobster fishers as the fishery had historically taken small quantities of deep - sea crab ( mainly champagne crabs ) as byproduct in their rock - lobster traps . however , to take deep - sea crabs out of the rock - lobster fishing season ( 15 november to 30 june ) a specific fishing boat licence endorsement was required . in april 1999 , 26 vessels on the south coast and six vessels on the west coast had acquired these licence endorsements as a result of earlier interest and activity related to deep - sea crabs .", "the need to more formally manage these fisheries arose in 1998 in addressing reporting requirements that environment australia proposed to impose as a condition of export approval under section 10a of the wildlife protection ( regulation of exports and imports ) act 1982 . the downturn in the asian economy and concerns about its impact on rock - lobster export prices also resulted in increased targeting of deep - sea crabs by rock - lobster fishers during the 1998\u20131999 rock - lobster season and increased interest from rock - lobster fishers wanting to target deep - sea crabs outside the rock - lobster fishery . there was also increased attention from rock - lobster processors interested in processing and marketing champagne crabs and other deep - sea crabs . in april 1999 these issues culminated in the existing endorsement holders , through the western australian fishing industry council ( wafic ) , asking the minister for fisheries to restrict the catch of deep - sea crabs by rock - lobster fishers .", "in may 1999 , in order to prevent overexploitation , the department indicated its intention to separately manage the crystal crab fishery and obtained support from the minster for fisheries to consult with existing licencees regarding how this fishery should be managed . existing licencees were subsequently advised of the department ' s intentions by letter . this letter in part said : \u201cit is envisaged that , depending on the number of applicants , access will be granted to those who best demonstrate a financial and personal commitment to the ongoing development of their nominated fishery . \u201da subsequent letter of 18 june 1999 referred to access being granted to \u201cthose who best demonstrate a personal and financial commitment to developing a sustainable , market - orientated snow ( crystal ) crab fishery . \u201d"]}

not south america ) . first discovered near christchurch in 1882 by charles chilton , a leading crustacean scientist at canterbury college ( now university of canterbury ) , scientists at the time were puzzled by phreatoicids\u2019 body structure that is intermediate between other types of crustaceans . by 1944 , nine species in three genera were discovered from new zealand , but have been largely unknown since , prompting scientists to wonder whether some species had become endangered or even extinct .", "the terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity information system programme , administered by the department of conservation , aims to raise awareness , provide identification tools and make data accessible to improve the new zealanders\u2019 understanding of the need for protection of biodiversity and significant habitats . it contracted niwa to investigate the conservation status of new zealand\u2019s endemic phreatoicids , so that any threatened species and habitat can be protected . niwa\u2019s investigations focused on six species which have not been reported for over 60 years . these species live in surface waters in the southern south island and appear to be important in breaking down dead plant matter to recycle their nutrients . full details of the locations and habitats where phreatoicids were found will be in niwa\u2019s publically - available freshwater biodata information system once the study is completed .", "the research results appear to be remarkably good news . phreatoicids were surprisingly abundant when present ; on ruapuke island in foveaux strait , for example , densities were estimated at over 200 per square metre . on stewart island , phreatoicids were common close to oban township , as well as the remote toitoi flats wetland and other locations . dense populations were found in several modified habitats , notably in drainage channels downstream of bayswater peatland scenic reserve near otautau in southland , amongst submerged , dead leaves of introduced grasses around road culverts on several roads in southland , and on macrocarpa tree roots in one drainage ditch .", "the best - known named species , plus two lesser known named species , live entirely within canterbury\u2019s groundwater . niwa discovered one of these species in huge numbers : \u201cwe easily collected a cupful \u2013 several hundred animals \u2013 at a time from wells 20 metres below the surface . these tiny , blind crustaceans play a major role in cleansing the region\u2019s groundwater , keeping our drinking water naturally pure , \u201d says dr graham fenwick , niwa\u2019s assistant regional manager in christchurch .", "survivors through aeons , phreatoicids live in a variety of habitats . some live in soupy , muddy ponds with almost no dissolved oxygen , others in quite acid conditions ( ph 4 . 5 ) . most seem to prefer various types of leaf litter . they avoid swift currents , but some do inhabit slow flowing rivers , while others find refuge in crevices or under rocks in various lowland or foothills streams . when their habitat dries too much , phreatoicids can walk short distances in search of another wet area ; others burrow as water levels retreat , or simply curl up in damp moss or leaf litter to survive brief dry periods .", "but the full story is yet to be unravelled . at least four new species were discovered . the unique characteristics of each species are being studied carefully , so that each species can be reliably re - identified and distinguished from others . this vital step is essential for determining each species\u2019 geographic range , abundance and true conservation status . with a history of little morphological change over 350 million years , this task is challenging because differences between our native species that have evolved much more recently are very subtle indeed .", "\u201ctheir high abundances , habitats preferences , and wide tolerances indicate that these ghosts of new zealand\u2019s ancient continental origins can survive in the face of considerable human changes to the landscape , so long as wetlands , in their various forms , are kept intact , \u201d dr fenwick says .", "information sources : poore 2002 , wilson 2003 & 2005 , cummins et al . 2005 key to genera : wilson & keable 2000 ( partial ) key to species : wilson & keable 2000 ( colubotelson , metaphreatoicus , partial )", "use of this web site and information available from it is subject to our legal notice and disclaimer and privacy statement .", "schotte , m . , b . f . kensley , and s . shilling .

electronic supplementary material , table s2 ) .", "in addition to management actions that allowed more individuals to reach maturity , environmental conditions probably contributed to the proliferation of rockfish larvae . rockfish spawning output is affected by the environment as female reproduction is reduced when food is scarce and adult energy reserves are low [ 19 ] . low spawning years typically occur during el ni\u00f1os when water temperature is high and primary productivity is low [ 51 , 52 ] . our logistic regression models support the idea that reproduction is higher when the water is cool as the presence of most species correlated negatively with temperature . further , we found that the water was cooler than the 30 - year average in most years between 1998 and 2013 , and it has been speculated that 1999 marked the beginning of an oceanographic shift from warm conditions that characterized the region between 1977 and 1998 [ 53 ] . therefore , environmental conditions appeared to have been generally conducive for high larval production and recruitment throughout much of the study .", "parker , s . j . , s . a . berkeley , j . t . golden , d . r . gunderson , j . heifetz , m . a . hixon , r . larson , b . m . leaman , m . s . love , j . a . musick , v . m . o ' connell , s . ralston , h . j . weeks , and m . m . yoklavich . 2000 . management of pacific rockfish . fisheries 25 : 22 - 30 .", "a common feature of the spatial and temporal behavior of rockfishes of the genus sebastes is that their behaviors differ between day and night [ 83 , 84 ] . this divergent behavioral pattern suggests that rockfish activity is closely related to ambient light intensity and that sunset and sunrise determine changes in behavioral state [ 38 ] . however , this pattern is not consistent among sebastes species ; some species are more active during the day , others during the night , and some exhibit no diel behavioral patterns . for example , the rosethorn rockfish sebastes helvomaculatus exhibits a clear diurnal activity pattern ( active during the day and inactive at night ) [ 85 ] . similarly , s . mystinus is more active during the day than at night , as indicated by a steep decrease in detection rates at dusk and resuming to the high level at dawn [ 38 ] . by contrast , s . inermis remains buried in rock crevices during the day but ranges between the surface and very deep depths at night [ 42 ] . in the present study , s . schlegelii was more frequently detected during the day than night , which is interpreted as a day active behavior [ 70 ] .", "the probability of presence of six of the eight most abundant targeted species ( copper , widow , blue , speckled , bocaccio and olive ) correlated negatively with temperature ( table 2 ;

ten - years long study of the authors having rather different former interest in the lepidopterology . only one of us had previous experience on the taxonomy and systematics of the wide sense \u201ebombycoid\u201d families since the three hungarian authors worked with different geometridae and noctuidae groups . but the \u201efalse owlet moths\u201d display a great number of noctuoid features which make this very fascinating lepidopteran family even more interesting for the noctuid workers .", "the final impetus was given during the intensive studies of the \u201ewinter moth fauna\u201d of the himalayan region : to our great surprise , it was found that the macrolepidoptera fauna of the cold aspects has not been restricted to the \u201eordinary\u201d noctuidae and geometridae but a diverse thyatiridae assemblage is present in practically all winter aspects . moreover , it is proved that thyatiridae is the only large heterocera group which shares this long and still rather poorly explored period with the noctuidae and geometridae in the wide sense himalayan region . the best marker of the richness of this fauna is the fact that the hnhm budapest has become the second largest european thyatiridae collection in the mirror of the species numbers within six years !", "originally we thought to deal with the winter genera and species and the first discoveries were published in separate papers but the need of the full revision of the family became obvious even in the early period of the studies . we had to face unsolved problems not only in the treatment of the highly specialised and partly newly discovered himalayan - sino - pacific groups but even in such well - known , partly european genera like habrosyne and thyatira ( and horithyatira , macrothyatira , gaurena etc . ) . it should be stated that the lack of the proper investigations of an amazingly large portion of the type specimens led to several mistakes in the former and the rather recent monographic works as well .", "the elaboration of the monograph was unexpectedly lengthy , mostly due to the detailed examination and documentation of the type material and , the continuous discoveries of new species . a propitious moment in this long process that the technical conditions of the digital photography became increasingly better during this period , therefore the quality of our colour images and microscopic photographs could also be remarkably improved and we are able to provide impressive illustrations about these really beautiful animals . it is our pleasure to present this book to all lepidopterists , hoping that the readers will read and use it with joy and success .", "gyula m . l\u00e1szl\u00f3 , g\u00e1bor ronkay , l\u00e1szl\u00f3 ronkay and thomas

and the neurotransmitter serotonin , which provokes smooth - muscle contractions ( layton 2008 ) . this venomous spine gives them their common name of stingrays ( a compound of \" sting \" and \" ray \" ) , but the name can also be used to refer to any poisonous ray .", "stingrays may also be called the \" whip - tailed rays , \" though this usage is much less common .", "a group or collection of stingrays is commonly referred to as a \" fever \" of stingrays .", "the flattened bodies of stingrays allow them effective concealment in sand . smell and electro - receptors are used to locate prey , similar to those of sharks . some sting rays ' mouths contain two powerful , shell - crushing plates , while some species only have sucking mouth parts . rays settle on the bottom while feeding , sometimes leaving only their eyes and tail visible . coral reefs are favored feeding grounds and are usually shared with sharks during high tide .", "mating season occurs in the winter . when a male is courting a female , he will follow her closely , biting at her pectoral disc . during mating , the male will go on top of the female ( his belly on her back ) and put one of his two claspers into her vent ( martin 2008 ) .", "most rays are ovoviviparous , bearing live young in \" litters \" of five to ten . the female holds the embryos in the womb without a placenta . instead , the embryos absorb nutrients from a yolk sac , and after the sac is depleted , the mother provides uterine milk ( passarelli and piercy 2008 ) .", "in addition to their ecological role in aquatic food chains , stingrays offer a number of values to humans , in terms of food , various products , and ecotourism .", "the skin of the ray is rough and can be used as leather ( mceachran 2004 ) . the skin is used as an underlayer for the cord or leather wrap ( ito ) on japanese swords ( katanas ) due to its hard , rough texture that keeps the braided wrap from sliding on the handle during use . native american indians used the spines of stingrays for arrowheads , while groups in the indo - west pacific used them as war clubs ( mceachran 2004 ) .", "many tahitian island resorts regularly offer guests the chance to \" feed the stingrays and sharks . \" this consists of taking a boat to the outer lagoon reefs then standing in waist - high water while habituated stingrays swarm around , pressing right up against a person seeking food .", "while most dasyatids are relatively widespread and unlikely to be threatened , there are several species ( for example , taeniura meyeni , dasyatis colarensis , d . garouaensis , and d . laosensis ) where the conservation status is more problematic , leading to them being listed as vulnerable or endangered by iucn . the status of several other species are poorly known , leading to them being listed as data deficient .", "himantura hortlei last , manjaji - matsumoto & kailola , 2006 .

backed gull is the greatest predator puffins face in the natural world . the gulls are big enough to pick puffins out of the air or their burrows . fox and rats are further threats from nature . herring gulls don\u2019t hurt the adult puffins themselves , but will often steal their food , sometimes right out of their beaks . humans have had a great impact on various puffin colonies through the years . puffins were ( and still are ) a source of food , and their skins , with feathers intact , were traditionally sewn together to make a waterproof cloak or coat . overfishing and pollution have also taken their toll on puffin colonies .", "uncontrolled tourism can be harmful to puffin colonies because they need solitude to breed . people who get too close may scare off parents from their duties of feeding their chick . as long as tourists stay on boats at a safe distance and do not disturb the puffins , they can easily enjoy watching a colony during the nesting season .", "fights take place frequently , even on rocky slopes , usually when another puffin is perceived to be invading the occupant\u2019s territory . the intruder is threatened with an open bill that exposes the brightly colored mouth lining , head shaking and flicking ( head jerked upward and bent toward the back ) , and side - to - side body rocking .", "humans have had a very negative effect on puffins in the past . today , there are threats on land and at sea . for example , over - fishing has caused a disaster for the colony on rost island in norway . in recent years puffin parents have not caught enough fish to feed their chicks . thousands of chicks have starved . this happened because people drastically depleted the herring stocks .", "puffins often live 20 years or more . the oldest known puffin lived to be 36 years . maximum age is difficult to determine because while researchers are able to band birds , puffins abrade these bands by nesting among boulders as well as spending the majority of their lives in the open ocean , which causes leg bands to corrode over time . both these mechanisms cause bands to become too worn to read .", "during winter , the bills and feet of puffins fade to dull shades of their summer colors . every spring their beaks and feet turn a colorful orange in preparation for the breeding season . the beaks and feet of puffins become brightly colored and the beak increases in size as the bird matures . the size and color of puffin beaks may serve as badges of experience and help birds assess the \u2018quality\u2019 of potential mates .", "after the egg is hatched , parental care continues for 6 days . feeding of a chick is done during the day by both parents . the chick becomes able to manage its own body temperature between 5 and 6 days after hatching . after this and for the next 35 days , the chick is left alone in the nest while both parents bring it food . there is no evidence of post - fledging care and the chicks depart at night by themselves . horned puffins reach reproductive maturity between 3 and 5 years of age .", "female horned puffins lay a single egg in the spring , which is incubated by both parents for 41 days . after the egg hatches , the parents tend the chick closely for the next week . the chick is born altricial , but is able to thermoregulate a little over a week after hatching . after that , the chick is left alone in the nest for the next 37 to 46 days while being attended by the parents only for feeding . pairs defend their nests and males defend their mates . males show a threat display and fight if provoked .", "both parents incubate the egg . they place the egg under a wing and then lean their body against the egg . the egg hatches in about 40 days and both parents feed and protect the chick . when the chick fledges in 40 days , the parents leave the chick and return to the open ocean . the chick then goes out to the open ocean waters and remains there for at least two years . puffins breed in large colonies with the tufted puffin .", "horned puffins nest in rock cervices in fragments of rocks at the base of a cliff ( talus or scree ) , among beach boulders , and in cracks and crevices in cliff faces . on a few alaskan islands , they also nest in earthen burrows . they excavate and clean their burrows or crevices using their feet , and occasionally the bill . nesting materials include grass , twigs , feathers , and even materials picked up at sea such as floating algae and plastic fishing line and nets . it is not known whether the male , female , or both prepare the nest .", "these medium sized sea birds have a stout body , short wings , and feet placed far back on the body . breeding ( alternate ) : . adult horned puffins are black with a large white patch on each side of the face and white underparts from the breast to under the tail feathers . they have a large , parrot - like , oversized bright yellow to reddish - orange bill , the end third of which is red . their legs are yellowish - orange to reddish . their eyelids are red . there is a small leathery \u2018horn\u2019 extending upward from above each eye .", "adult puffins mostly eat small fish , such as sand eels , herring , hake and capelin . puffin diets vary from colony to colony because of the variety of fish around the breeding islands . during winter puffins may also eat crustaceans , but their preferred food is fish . the young puffins are usually fed fish by their parents . parents carry fish in their bills and either drop them on the burrow floor or pass them to the chick . parents usually feed the chick several times each day .", "puffins can serve as food for people . locals of the faroe islands , norway and iceland have hunted puffins for centuries . the lofoten people ( norway ) use special puffin dogs to dig birds from burrows among narrow rocks . the iceland and faroe island locals use a fleyg , which looks like a 4 - meter long lacrosse pole , to catch puffins in flight . hunters who do this require great skill and take pride in only taking puffins that are not bringing back food to their young . this reduces the take of breeders , if successful .", "puffins preen on land and in the water . they rub the side of the bill repeatedly on their oil gland and then smear the secretion over the body feathers to waterproof them . wing - flapping is a common behavior in which the puffin lies to one side on the water so that one wing is under - water while the other is held in the air vertical to the water and flapped three to four times in the air . satisfied that one side is clean ; the bird turns onto its other side and repeats the wing - flapping . these behaviors can be watched at the aquarium\u2019s diving bird habitat in the northern pacific gallery .", "puffin chicks leave a colony when they fledge and head off to the ocean without their parents . they remain in the open ocean until they are 2 - 3 years old . then they return to the vicinity of the colony where they hatched and may nest near the burrow where they hatched . scientists are unsure how puffins find their way home and are still learning how birds migrate . the puffins may make a mental map of their birthplace and use this to return later . they may use stars , the earth\u2019s magnetic field , sounds , smells and the visual cues of the ocean to help them make this map . while the ocean appears uniform to us , to seabirds it holds vast amounts of information we can\u2019t sense . we still have much to learn from the migrations of seabirds .", "html public \" -

( a popular misconception is that dire wolf dwarfed the modern day grey wolf ) the dire wolf was about 1 . 5 meters ( 5 feet ) long and weighed about 50 kilograms ( 110 pounds ) on average . the dire wolf looked fairly similar to the modern grey wolf ; however , there were several important differences . the dire wolf had a larger , broader head and shorter , sturdier legs than its modern relative . the teeth of the dire wolf are much larger and more massive than those of the grey wolf . the braincase of the dire wolf is also smaller than that of a similarly - sized grey wolf . the fact that the lower part of the legs of the dire wolf are proportionally shorter than those of the grey wolf , indicates that the dire wolf was probably not a good a runner as the grey wolf . many paleontologists think that the dire wolf may have used its relatively large , massive teeth to crush bone . this idea is supported by the fact that dire wolf teeth frequently have large amounts of wear on their crowns . several people have suggested that dire wolves may have made their living in similar ways to the modern hyenas . wolves and coyotes are relatively common large carnivores found in ice age sites . in fact , several thousand dire wolves have been found in the asphalt pits at rancho la brea in los angeles , ca . the coyote , grey wolf , and dire wolf have all been found in paleontological sites in the midwestern u . s . the first specimen of a dire wolf was found at near evansville , indiana . clark kimberling of the university of evansville has traced the very interesting history of this specimen . the dire wolf , canis dirus , larger and heavier than the grey wolf , evolved earlier and the two co - existed in north america for about 400 , 000 years . as prey became extinct around 16 , 000 years ago due to climatic change , the dire wolf gradually became extinct itself . around 7 , 000 years ago the grey wolf became the prime canine predator in north america .", "recent announcements that us fish and wildlife service will delist mid -

based paired fins to row across mud , and some can even clasp and climb mangroves . they can live out of water because the gill openings are small to prevent desiccation of the gills , oxygen can be taken into the chamber and absorbed through the gills and chamber wall , and they can also absorb oxygen through their skin . they often rest with the tail immersed in water for this purpose or roll around in shallow water to moisten themselves . they may live entirely in water , or will come onto land even when there is enough oxygen in the water . their eyes are high on the head , protruding and able to revolve independently , and have a movable lower lid . the eyes are retracted periodically into small cups below the head to moisten them . such eyes are very effective as a means to watch for potential enemies on land but their vision under water is blurred . mudskippers have elaborate reproductive behaviour which involves tail standing , flip - flops , and fin displays . they are very territorial and defend their territory against other mudskippers and crabs . they can deliver a skin - breaking bite to humans even though they are only about 15 cm long !", "this genus comprises only a single species and so its characters are those of the species . the snout is very distinctive and details of neuromasts are not given here as they are not needed in identification , although of importance in relating the genus . the genus is closely related to the tadpole goby clade comprising", "and details are give in miller in miller ( 2004 ) . this author also gives an alternative terminology for the arrangement of neuromasts than that of ahnelt", "eichwald , 1831 by berg ( 1927 ) but later iljin ( 1930 ) erected a new genus because of its unusual and distinctive morphology . the type locality is the caspian sea at 37\u00b058 ' n , 52\u00b022 ' e at a depth of 294 m ( but see below ) .", ".

ppf , from the skin of the chinese ranid frog , pelophylax plancyi fukienensis , representing a prototype of a novel class of bradykinin b2 - receptor specific antagonist . using a preconstricted preparation of rat tail arterial smooth muscle , a single dose of 10 ( -

cropping systems also led to the demise of the grassland habitats of migratory locust in cotobato ( roffey , 1972 ; farrow , 1974a ) . similar developments occurred in other areas , like the central niger flood plain and the deltas of the volga and danube rivers . nevertheless , outbreaks of l . migratoria have continued to arise unpredictably at widely separated locations as a result of other human activities that encourage the formation of grasslands .", "plagues of desert locust , schistocerca gregaria ( f\u00f6rskal ) , have been recognized as a threat to agricultural production in africa and western asia for thousands of years . locust scourges are referred to in the christian bible and the islamic koran , and in some places , locust plagues have been held responsible for epidemics of human pathogens , such as cholera ( this is because of the massive quantities of decomposing locust cadavers that would accumulate on beaches after swarms flew out to sea and drowned ) . published accounts of locust invasions in north africa date back to about ad 811 , but more precise records were apparently not kept until the twentieth century ( showler 1993 ) . since then , it is known that desert locust plagues have occurred sporadically up until the present .", ". . . most recent largescale outbreaks of it occurred in 1986 - 1989 and in 2003 - 2005 , mostly on the african continent [ 4 ] . current locust control operations are mainly based on organophosphorus pesticides as a result of the banning of organochlorines [ 5 ] . the widespread use of such synthetic pesticides has considerable drawbacks , such as the development of insect resistance to insecticides , increased costs , handling hazards , concerns about insecticide residues , and great threats to both human and environmental health [ 6 ] . . . .", "a locust outbreak or upsurge is the vaguely defined transition from the innocuous solitary phase to the plague stage which can be localized or cross -

90 eggs that are laid at night in sandy soil .", "during pre - independence days , each of the princely states and provinces in india had a different administrative set up of its own and it was not possible to put up a common front against locust . there was no coordinated policy or a central coordination organization to destroy locusts , though sporadic attempts were made in restricted areas in a few states or provinces . there was no joint or concerted anti - locust action by all concerned and heavy losses to crops and other vegetation , leading or contributing to serious famines resulted . following the desert locust plague of 1926 - 31 the imperial council of agricultural research sponsored a scheme of research on the desert locust in 1931 . after the termination of the locust scheme in 1939 , the govt . of india established a permanent locust warning organisation with a nucleus staff under the supervision of the then imperial entomologist to the govt . of india . the main functions of the then locust warning organisation were to survey the locust habitats in the desert , issue warning to the states likely to be affected by locusts and to assist them in carrying out control operation in the event of the locust attack . locust control at that time was entirely the responsibility of the local governments even in the desert areas . in october 1946 , with the establishment of the directorate of plant protection , quarantine and storage under the ministry of agriculture , government of india , at new delhi , the locust warning organization was strengthened .", "upsurges are periods in which a widespread and very large increase in locust numbers initiates contemporaneous outbreaks followed by two or more successive seasons of transiens -

ray energy . second , there is a loss of spatial resolution because the light from one x - ray photon can spread to multiple pixels . third , x - ray photons of different energy are attenuated differently as they pass through the patient ' s body , leading to image defects in ct referred to as beam - hardening artifacts . therefore , with the background art it is not possible to take advantage of the information provided by the x - ray photons for optimal diagnosis .", "these and other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent upon reading the following description in conjunction with the drawing , the single figure of which is a combined block and schematic diagram of the pincushion correction circuit of the invention .", "as is well - known in the television art , the raster or deflection pattern produced on a spherical face of a cathode ray tube ( crt ) suffers pincushion distortion as the center of deflection of the electron beam deviates from the center of curvature of the screen . with non - spherically faced crt ' s , the effect of pincushion distortion is more pronounced . trapezoidal and other types of distortion are also introduced if the yoke ( deflection winding structure ) is not accurately positioned on the neck of the crt . compounding the problem , is the multi - gun shadow mask type of crt which requires that the plural beams from the electron guns converge at the phosphor target for color purity . the distortion correction circuits of the prior art add appropriate currents to the deflection yokes for straightening the top / bottom , and left and right sides of the scanned raster . as will be apparent to those skilled in the art , the yoke structure itself may be designed to compensate for a portion of the pincushion error . it is common to incorporate a combination of mechanical correction in the yoke with electrical pincushion correction circuitry .", "a cathode ray tube having two electron beams and associated deflection systems is described in which an auxiliary deflection plate is employed between two pairs of vertical deflection plates at their outputs to correct pincushion distortion . a correction signal is produced by a control circuit and applied to the auxiliary deflection plate in response to a ramp voltage input corresponding to the horizontal sweep signal . the correction signal is a positive going peak shaped voltage so that the auxiliary deflection plate tends to vertically deflect the beams away from such plate at both the start and end of the horizontal sweep signal to correct pincushion distortion while not deflecting such beam appreciatively at the center of such sweep signal .", "compagno , l . j . v . , porcupine ray urogymnus asperrimus ( bloch & schneider , 1801 ) . pp . 352 -

ray energy dividing between the binding energy of the core electron before excitation and its kinetic energy as it propagates after excitation . the gamma - ray energy lost to the binding energy is left in the form of an empty core hole that relaxes and contributes to the signal via the emission ( and reabsorption ) of a secondary x - ray , a cascade of auger electrons , excitation of vibrations , or combinations thereof . in compton scatter , the gamma - ray interacts with a loosely bound electron and deflects from its original path , in the process conveying some of its energy and momentum to the electron . both the compton - scattered photon and resulting electron continue to propagate and undergo further interactions in the converter material .", "if the energy of the gamma - ray photon is above 1 . 1 mev , which is rare for spect , a third interaction becomes possible , namely the conversion of the photon into an electron and positron in a process known as pair production . within the 30 kev \u2013 250 kev energy range of most spect studies , the energy deposition generally occurs in a cascade with zero , one , or two compton scatters followed by one terminal photoelectric absorption . however , there are a number of mechanisms by which less than the total gamma - ray energy can be deposited in the converter . among the most common are compton - escape , where either the scattered gamma ray or the compton electron leaves the converter material , or escape of the secondary x - ray following photoelectric absorption . these losses are more likely to occur when the gamma - ray interacts close to one of the faces of the detector material .", "it is apparent from the foregoing that the beam deflector of the invention includes a deflection coil 25 which produces a deflecting magnetic field to deflect the electron beam in the cathode ray tube . the deflection coil has a first portion wound to have a uniform thickness substantially over the full length of the deflection coil so as to produce a uniform magnetic field when energized and a second portion wound to have a non - uniform thickness only at the front end of the deflection coil so as to produce a pincushion magnetic field . thus , the electron beam emitted from the electron gun toward the screen is subject first to the influence of the uniform magnetic field produced by the first portion of the deflection coil and then to the influence of the pincushion magnetic field produced by the second portion of the deflection coil . under the influence of the uniform magnetic field , the electron beam is deflected without any shape deformation . the pincushion magnetic field is effective to correct the picture distortion caused by the influence of the uniform magnetic field . the pincushion magnetic field tends to deform the shape of the electron beam . the degree to which the electron beam is deformed is dependent on the distance of the screen from the position at which the electron beam is subject to the influence of the pincushion magnetic field . since the second portion is positioned only at the front end of the deflection coil , that is , at a position as close to the screen of the cathode ray tube as possible , the deflection coil of the invention is effective to correct the picture distortion to a sufficient extent and maintain the beam -

like crystals that are grown together . the small size of the individual crystals ( down to ~ 10 \u03bcm ) can provide good intrinsic spatial resolution , as they provide a natural means of channeling the scintillation light , but the thickness of such arrays has been limited ( \u22643 mm ) , such that to date they have found use primarily in low - energy gamma - ray and x - ray applications .", "other critical factors characterizing scintillator performance are proportionality and the timing characteristics of the scintillation light output . in principle , the mean number of scintillation photons should be strictly proportional to the energy of the absorbed gamma ray , and deviation from this ideal relationship is termed non - proportionality . recent advances in understanding this phenomenon focus on variations in the local exciton density , as caused by a material - specific secondary ionization pattern as a function of primary electron energy , and thereby a varying probability of exciton - exciton annihilation ( cherepy et al . , 2009 ; payne et al . , 2009 ) . a consequence is that an event in which an incident gamma ray undergoes a photoelectric interaction immediately will result in a different amount of light than one in which the gamma ray first undergoes a compton scattering and then a photoelectric interaction of the secondary photon , even if the total gamma ray energy deposited is the same .", "carini ga , wei c , de geronimo g , gaskin ja , keister jw , zheng l , ramsey bd , rehak p , siddons dp . performance of a thin -

this helped to convince me that i did not have a breeding pair of fish .", "i was surprised then when the eggs , roughly 100 in number , did not fungus on the following days . after 3 days they hatched , but the fry soon disappeared , never to be seen again . still , i now knew i had a pair and i began to condition them with more feedings of blood worms in hopes of another spawn .", "on the next spawning , there were approximately 300 eggs laid in the same location as before . this time , after the eggs hatched , the number of fry began to dwindle and the male became increasingly beaten - up . i suspected that the male was eating the fry and being attacked by the female as she attempted to defend them . i siphoned a couple of dozen fry out of the tank and set them up in a ten gallon aquarium with a sponge filter in order to raise them away from the parents . i also separated the male from the female using a piece of \" eggcrate \" light grating placed in the middle of the tank .", "the fry in the thirty gallon with the parents grew much more quickly than those in the ten gallon tank , but their numbers continued to dwindle , although at a much slower rate than before . my guess is that now and then one of the fry in the parents ' tank would find its way to the male ' s side of the tank and be eaten by him , but i never actually witnessed this . the presence of the divider did not significantly change the general behavior of either adult fish ; the male continued to spend most of his time in hiding even though he was separated from the more outgoing female .", "i decided to remove the remaining fry ( now down to about a dozen ) from the parents ' tank . they were too big to place in with the fry previously removed from the thirty gallon , so i put them in a ten gallon tank of their own . a couple of days later i observed that there was still one young fish in the parents ' tank , but i decided to leave it there .", "in the next couple of weeks the growth of the single juvenile remaining in the parents ' tank greatly outpaced those of its siblings in the fry tanks . i decided that it could probably fend for itself with the barrier removed and i was anxious to have the adults spawn again , so i took out the egg - crate divider .", "conkel , d . 1990 . \" fishes of the balboan jungle . \" tropical fish hobbyist , 38 ( 8 ) : 74ff .", "gill , t . 1858 . \" synopsis of the fresh water fishes of the western portion of the island of trinidad . w . r . \" annals of the lycewnofnaturalhistory of new york . 6 : 363 - 430 .", "kner . r . and f . steindachner . 1866 . \" neue gattungen und arten von fischen aus centralamertka . \" abhandlungen der mathematisch - phy sikalischen classe der koniglichbayerischen akademie der wissenschaften . 10 : 1 - 61 .", "regan . c . 1903 . \" descrtptions of new south amertcan fishes in the collection of the british museum . \" annals and magazine of natural history . ser . 7 . vol . 12 : 621 - 630 .", "stawikowski . r . and u . werner , 1988 . die buntbarsche der neuen welt : siidamertka . essen , west germany .", "steindachner . f . 1878 . \" zur fisch - fauna des magdalenenstromes . . . denkschriften der kaiserlichen akademie der wissenschaften . mathematischnaturwissenschajtliche classe . wien . 39 : 19 - 78", "u . s . office of geography , department of interior . 1957 gazetteer no . 36 : ecuador . washington , d . c .", "warning : the ncbi web site requires javascript to function . more . . .", "videira m 1 , velasco m , azevedo r , silva r , gon\u00e7alves e , matos p , matos e .", "laborat\u00f3rio de morfofisiologia e sanidade animal , universidade do estado do amap\u00e1 ( ueap ) , macap\u00e1 , ap , brazil .", "description found in coastal waters , over sandy and sandy mud bottom . juveniles enter estuaries . adults feed on pelagic fishes at . . .", "description found in coastal waters , over sandy and sandy mud bottom . juveniles enter estuaries . adults feed on pelagic fishes at night . often caught with @ umbrina canariensis @ . marketed fresh and is considered an important foodfish ( ref . 9772 ) .

( 1991 ) for woodcock harvested in spain ( 89 % ) , and to that found by paoletti et al . ( 2016 ) in italy ( 93 . 2 % ) . . . .", ". . . the intensity of cestodiasis in woodcock may be affected by differences in feeding patterns and earthworm availability in each region . earthworm availability and subsequent woodcock diet composition vary among different regions , as demonstrated by hoodless & hirons ( 2007 ) in spring , and by granval ( 1987 ) in autumn and winter . it may be , then , that those birds feeding more efficiently in each region were more prone to cestodiasis . . . .", ". . . moreover , unlike many woodland specialists , woodcock do not rely on mature forest and appear to require areas with at least some young growth or clearings . perhaps habitat complementarity is a more important consideration ( dunning et al . 1992 ) as radio - tracking studies suggest that habitats associated with nesting and chick - rearing differ ( hirons 1988 , hoodless & hirons 2007 . it may be that larger woods usually offer a greater diversity of stand type and ages as well as a more diverse range of micro - climates , ensuring the availability of wet feeding areas throughout the summer . . . .", ". . . the great disadvantage would be that these activities might require far more effort with less chance of success . the technique which is suitable for conditions in spring or in autumn might not be efficient in summer , when woodcocks may spend less time in open fields at night ( hoodless & hirons 2007 ) . the recovery rate \u2013 which is linked mainly to hunting \u2013 can be considered high . . . .", ". . . diet ) , as well as a number of bird species including thrushes ( gruar et al . 2003 ) and some predatory birds ( hounsome et al . 2004 ; schipper et al . 2012 ) are only facultative earthworm predators , consuming earthworms only at certain times , such as when they are present on the soil surface ( e . g . , during wet periods ) . other species , such as the european mole ( talpa europaea ) and birds like the american woodcock ( the eco\u2010ssl receptor ) feed predominantly on earthworms , with earthworms constituting greater than 75 % of the diet ( hoodless and hirons 2007 ) . prey selection can also represent an important exposure estimation variable for carnivores . . . .", ". . . the same phenomenon seems to occur at larger spatial scales both in britain ( hoodles et al . 2009 ) and in france ( ferrand et al . 2008 ) , where breeding woodcock are particularly scarce in the locations where they tend to be most abundant in winter . the seasonal change in altitudinal distribution is coupled with a seasonal change in activity patterns : in summer , woodcocks are almost continuously active over a 24 hour period but are more active during the day and in the forest ( hoodless & hirons 2007 , this study ) whereas during the winter their activity and feeding take place mainly at night and in the fields ( duriez et al . 2005a , b , bra\u00f1a et al . 2010 ) . change in earthworm availability could be the key factor in explaining this seasonal shift in habitat use and time schedule , as summer soil dryness prevents woodcock probing for food . . . ."]}

to - parent signaling is among the most fundamental forms of communication [ 1 ] . for nocturnal mammals with altricial young ( e . g . , rodents , bats ) , acoustic signals produced by neonates ( isolation calls ) are integral to maternal localization and retrieval [ 2 ] , [ 3 ] , and can promote maternal behaviors such as grooming and nursing . thus , across distantly related mammalian orders , both the intended receiver and the function of isolation calls seem to be conserved , and are unique to the period of maternal dependence . while vocal communication remains important to the adult social behavior of many species , the receivers and functions of acoustic signals are diverse and context - dependent , ranging from alarm calling , territorial advertisement and mate attraction , to courtship songs that encode individual identity [ 4 ] , [ 5 ] , [ 6 ] . the functional disconnect between neonate and adult vocal behavior raises several interesting questions . for example , are the acoustic properties of isolation calls unique or are elements retained as the animal matures and the social context and function of vocal behavior changes ? conversely , what is the developmental time course of adult vocal communication ? are adult vocalizations produced de novo post - weaning or can the trajectory of vocal development be traced back to isolation calls ?", "breeding pairs were housed in polycarbonate cages bedded with wood chips . the mice were provided with sphagnum moss and a pvc tunnel for nesting ; water and food ( kitten chow , seeds , dried beans and peanuts ) were given ad lib . pups were housed with both parents until weaning and litter sizes were not manipulated . a total of 30 s . teguina from 27 litters were recorded for this study ; 16 of these were the offspring of wild -

weaning pup that does not comprise the rapidly articulated series of fm sweeps characteristic of the adult advertisement song . we delineated the end of the isolation calling period for each individual as the last day on which an isolation call was produced . we define a note as a continuous sound , and a calling bout as a series of three or more notes occurring with an inter - note interval of less than 2 s . notes were classified manually according to quantitative differences in duration , bandwidth , number of changes in direction of frequency ( 0 , 1 or \u22672 ) , and the presence / absence of nonlinear elements ( e . g . , deterministic chaos and bifurcations ; [ 37 ] ) .", "all measurements were made in raven pro 1 . 3 ( bioacoustics research program 2008 ) . we analyzed a maximum of three files / individual / day and took the average of all variables . when more than three files were available we used the first three good quality files ( i . e . , high signal : noise ) from that recording session . in each 15 s file we measured overall maximum , minimum and dominant frequency , and bandwidth . when harmonics were present , maximum and minimum frequency were always measured from the fundamental frequency ( i . e . , the lowest frequency in the harmonic series ) . we manually counted the total number of notes in each file , the number of notes in the first calling bout , and the number of notes of each type . in addition , note duration , bandwidth , and maximum , minimum and dominant frequency were measured for each of three notes in the first calling bout in the file . to avoid bias in note choice we measured bout duration , divided by three , and took measurements from notes that fell in the middle of each third ( i . e . , for a 6 s bout we measured the notes closest to 1 . 5 , 3 . 5 and 5 . 5 s ) . internote interval was measured from end of each focal note to the beginning of the next note in the file .", "principle components analysis ( pca ) was used to visualize the distribution of age - and species - specific vocal parameters in acoustic space . because the same mice were recorded at multiple ages , call data for a given individual were statistically non - independent . we controlled for non - independence in several ways . to test for age - specific differences within and between species , we binned recordings into age classes ( postnatal days 1\u20133 , 4\u20136 , 7\u20139 , 10\u201312 , 13\u201315 , 30 + ) , and analyzed vocalizations from a single recording session for each individual within each age class . for the three - day age classes , we retained data for all individuals that were recorded in the middle of each age range ( e . g . , day 2 for days 1\u20133 ) , and otherwise picked one representative day / individual / age class at random . adult songs were analyzed from a single recording session / individual ( mean age , sd : 40 . 2 , 6 . 1 days ) .", "repeated measures analysis of variance ( anova ) was used to test the effect of age on vocal development over time . in this case , only individuals that were represented in each age class were included in the analysis . to test for correlations between body mass and frequency measures from birth to maturity , we randomly assigned each individual to a focal age , such that total age range was maximized and each individual was used only once in the analysis .", "we used the coefficient of variation ( defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean ) to describe change in vocal stereotypy across age classes . within each age class we took the average of the coefficient of variation for seven descriptors of frequency and timing ( maximum , minimum and dominant frequency , number of notes / bout , bout duration , note duration for a randomly selected note in the middle third of a bout , and internote interval to the next note ) from three different call files recorded from the same individual during a maximum time interval of three days ( birth to 15 days ) or 5 days ( > 30 days ) . in most cases , we were able to use calls captured during the same recording session . we used one - way anovas to test for species and sex differences in the coefficient of variation within each age class . the \u03b1 value for all statistical analyses was set to 0 . 05 , with correction for multiple testing as appropriate .", "in most individuals of both species , vocal behavior was developmentally disjunct with a non - vocal period separating the last recorded isolation call and the first production of the adult advertisement song ( table 1 ) . of the 30 s . teguina pups recorded in this study , 27 produced isolation calls when removed from the nest . the three pups that never called were males derived from the boquete population and were all from single pup litters . all 23 s . teguina that were recorded from birth to maturity produced adult songs , including the three males that did not call at earlier stages . of the 15 s . xerampelinus pups used in the study , one female from a single pup litter did not produce isolation calls . of the 11 individuals ( 5 females , 6 males ) recorded to maturity , three females and one male were never observed singing as adults .", "unexpectedly , the largest differences in the duration of isolation calling and the timing of first adult song production were within s . teguina . on average , pups derived from the cartago population stopped producing isolation calls almost a week later than those from boquete ( mean , sd : 13 . 0 , 2 . 3 days vs . 7 . 5 , 1 . 7 days ; f 1 , 23 35 . 5 , p < 0 . 0001 ) and produced their first adult song over a week later than boquete mice ( 35 . 5 , 6 . 2 days vs . 26 . 7 , 9 . 7 days ; f 1 , 21 6 . 7 , p = 0 . 02 ) , whereas the duration of the non - vocal period did not differ between populations ( 22 . 1 , 6 . 5 days vs . 21 . 5 , 9 . 0 days ; f 1 , 18 0 . 03 , p = 0 . 9 ) ( table 1 ) . we asked whether these population differences in vocal development might be a secondary consequence of different rates of growth and development , or an artifact of social or sex - specific biases in our sample .", "boquete litter sizes were smaller ( f 1 , 26 21 . 6 , p < 0 . 0001 ) and boquete pups ' eyes opened earlier ( f 1 , 39 167 . 0 , p < 0 . 0001 ) ( table 1 ) . therefore , between - population differences in vocal behavior could be explained by overall slower development in cartago mice due to proportionally less maternal resource allocation / pup . however , there was no effect of population on body mass for any age class ( all p \u22670 . 2 ) . likewise , the end of isolation calling was three days prior to when boquete pups opened their eyes , whereas these events were approximately coincident in cartago pups ( table 1 ) . we also considered that there might be an effect of litter size on motivation to vocalize ; pups in this study that did not vocalize had no siblings and a similar relationship between small litter size and low isolation call production was reported in microtus [ 22 ] . we could not test this hypothesis statistically since only one cartago single - pup litter was included in the study . however , this female produced isolation calls , albeit for a period less than the population mean ( 8 vs . 13 . 0 days ) . finally , the boquete sample was strongly female - biased for all pup age classes . therefore , if female s . teguina stop producing isolation calls earlier and start producing adult song later than males , population effects on vocal behavior might be an artifact of sex differences . within the cartago sample , however , there was no sex difference in the duration of the isolation calling period or age at first adult song production ( both p > 0 . 1 ) .", "these results , together with population differentiation in acoustic properties of vocalizations ( [ 29 ] ; described below ) , suggest that this bimodal pattern of vocal behavior within s . teguina reflects population differences in nature , which persist across several generations of lab - rearing in a common environment . to avoid confounding intraspecific variation with interspecific divergence , we carried out between - species analyses both with and without the boquete samples . we report results for the full dataset unless exclusion of boquete mice changed significance .", "there was no difference between s . xerampelinus and s . teguina in the duration of the isolation calling period ( f 1 , 37 2 . 4 , p = 0 . 1 ) , the duration of the non -

specific differences between s . teguina males and females ( table s3 ) , but these were not consistent either within or across age groups . this general lack of sex differences in spectral measures of pup isolation calls is consistent with the sexually monomorphic spectral features of adult song in both species . however , we cannot exclude the possibility of detecting sex differences with larger sample sizes , particularly for s . xerampelinus .", "in both species , there was a significant negative relationship between body mass and all whole call frequency measures ( fig . s1 ) . in s . teguina ( n = 24 ) , the effect of body mass on dominant frequency was marginal ( f 1 , 23 4 . 7 , p = 0 . 04 ) , but highly significant for minimum frequency ( f 1 , 23 37 . 1 , p < 0 . 0001 ) and maximum frequency ( f 1 , 23 16 . 3 , p = 0 . 0006 ) . similarly , in s . xerampelinus ( n = 13 ) , the negative effect of body mass was weaker for dominant frequency ( f 1 , 12 6 . 3 , p = 0 . 03 ) than for minimum or maximum frequency ( f 1 , 12 15 . 5 , p = 0 . 002 and f 1 , 12 16 . 0 , p = 0 . 002 , respectively ) .", "the advertisement songs of adult singing mice are highly stereotyped . therefore , we were interested in whether stereotypy increases with age as pups acquire greater motor control , or whether stereotypy is a unique feature of the adult song . for each age class , we used the coefficient of variation ( cv ) to summarize the within - individual repeatability of seven descriptors of frequency and timing . species means for each age class are shown in figure 6 . because the composition of pup vocal repertoires was heterogeneous relative to that of adults , our analysis was biased toward detecting lower stereotypy ( higher cv ) in pups vs . adults . nonetheless , if increase in stereotypy were an important component of pup vocal development , we would expect to observe a reduction in intra -

test , p = 0 . 3 ) . there were no species differences in adult vocal stereotypy .", "there was no effect of sex on stereotypy for any age class in either species . there was , however a species difference in age -

range interactions [ 32 ] . interestingly , complex fm warbles that resemble an elaborated version of notes d and e in young pups are the most common note type produced by adult s . teguina in close - range social interactions ( warren , campbell , pasch and phelps unpublished data ) . this suggests that the distinct vocal repertoires used by adults in long - distance vs . close - range communication arise from the same source during early development . similar patterns of vocal development , in which the heterogeneous repertoire of dependent young is modified and used in discrete contexts by adults , are reported in shrews , echolocating bats , and lab mice [ 10 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 13 ] .", "female s . teguina produced their first advertisement song ( 34 . 3\u00b18 . 2 d ) coincident with the onset of sexual receptivity indicated by vulval opening ( 33 . 8 d ; range 28\u201339 d ; [ 31 ] ) . this pattern suggests that steroid hormones associated with the estrous cycle activate female vocalizations . androgen manipulations indicate that dht , which cannot be aromatized to estrogen , is sufficient to activate male s . teguina vocalizations , suggesting that estrogens are not necessary for song production . interestingly , the minority of males who continued to sing following castration were those castrates with the highest levels of circulating testosterone , indicating that extra - gonadal androgens may influence song output [ 33 ] . periovulatory androgen release from the adrenals is associated with female sexual behavior in several mammalian species [ 43 ] , and may activate female vocal behavior [ 44 ] .", "from an ultimate perspective , the non - vocal period corresponds to the span of time when pups of both species become ambulatory , are weaned , and initiate dispersal [ 31 ] . initially , silence reflects emancipation from immobility and the ability to actively suckle by day 12 [ 31 ] . subsequent silence in subadults likely facilitates competitor avoidance as individuals disperse in search of unoccupied habitat . because adult vocalizations advertise signaler presence to potential rivals , remaining silent reduces the probability of escalation of costly antagonistic encounters [ 35 ] . indeed , immigrant s . teguina males ( who were smaller and younger ) counter - sang less in response to playback of a conspecific male song compared to larger and older residents ( pasch and phelps , unpublished data ) . together , the data suggest that the emergence of adult vocalizations represents a compromise between proximate mechanisms that promote advertisement of the onset of sexual maturity , and selection that suppresses advertisement until the social environment is opportune .", "the capacity for vocal learning is rare in non - human mammals . traditionally , rodents are classified as vocal non - learners , and recent studies using approaches such as deafening and cross - fostering indicate that the courtship songs of adult male lab mice require no auditory input for normal development and are invariant relative to the vocal environment in which animals are reared [ 45 ] , [ 46 ] , [ 47 ] . however , patterns of forebrain activation associated with lab mouse courtship song production , pitch convergence in songs of co - housed males from vocally distinct strains , and song degradation following deafening , suggest that the basic neural substrates and the capacity for vocal imitation ( plasticity ) may be present in some rodents ( [ 48 ] ; see also ref . 12 ) . arriaga and jarvis [ 49 ] proposed that these conflicting results could be reconciled if vocal learning is treated as a continuum , placing taxa like mice with a modest capacity for vocal plasticity at one end of the spectrum , and taxa like humans and song birds with the capacity to learn and subsequently modify complex vocal output at the other .", "taken together , these observations suggest that singing mouse advertisement songs do not require extensive learning . testing this hypothesis awaits manipulation of early acoustic environments or auditory function . finally , given the evidence for pitch convergence in the close - range courtship songs of adult male lab mice [ 48 ] , it will be of particular interest to determine whether the close - range vocal repertoires of adult singing mice are similarly sensitive to auditory feedback .", "the results of this study demonstrate that vocal development in sister species of singing mice follows the same basic trajectory as that described in other mammalian orders ( i . e . , chiroptera and soricomorpha ; [ 10 ] , [ 11 ] ) , and in laboratory mice [ 12 ] . while the acoustic structure , mechanistic basis , and social context of singing mouse vocalizations all undergo major shifts in the transition from isolation calls to adult advertisement songs , the basic elements of adult song are present from birth . likewise , spectral components of isolation calls that are rare or absent in adult long distance signals are common in adult close - range interactions . this suggests that the acoustic signals of need produced by altricial mammalian neonates provide the raw material for diverse forms of adult vocal behavior and communication .", "the relationship between body mass and maximum ( black triangles ) , dominant ( open diamonds ) , and minimum ( gray squares ) frequency in a ) s . teguina , and b ) s . xerampelinus .", "age -

however , the unique vertebral morphology and gigantic size indicate the presence of a very large shark during the mid - cretaceous of north america . the mid - cretaceous is increasingly being recognized as an important time in shark evolutionary history , as the fossil record improves and increasingly reveals previously unknown diversity . although lamniformes likely evolved in the jurassic , it is not until the aptian when multiple genera appear together in a single assemblage . similarly , size increased for the entire order , with multiple families containing relatively large species by the late cretaceous [ 29 ] . this increase in size and diversity was likely influenced by the warming trend beginning in the mid - cretaceous ; where midocean temperatures at 30\u201335\u00b0n paleolatitude rise from 13\u201314\u00b0c in the early albian to 28\u201329\u00b0c in the cenomanian [ 30 ] . however , more research is needed to determine the cause of gigantism in lamniform sharks .", "despite their rows of ragged teeth and vicious appearance , sand tiger sharks are actually rather docile , usually attacking humans only in self - defense .", "sand tiger sharks , also known as gray nurse sharks , have a deceivingly ferocious look . they are large - bodied and display a mouthful of sharp teeth that protrude in all directions , even when the mouth is shut . despite this , they are a docile , non - aggressive species , known to attack humans only when bothered first .", "sand tiger sharks are brownish - gray with rust - colored spots on top and white underneath . they have a flattened , cone - shaped snout and a distinctive , oblong tail with a notched , upper lobe that is significantly longer than the lobe below . individuals range in size from 6 . 5 to 10 . 5 feet in length .", "their name comes from their tendency toward shoreline habitats , and they are often seen trolling the ocean floor in the surf zone , very close to shore . they are found in warm or temperate waters throughout the world ' s oceans , except the eastern pacific .", "sand tigers are the only shark known to come to the surface and gulp air . they store the air in their stomachs , which allows them to float motionless in the water , seeking prey . they are voracious predators , feeding at night and generally staying close to the bottom . their staple is small fish , but they will eat crustaceans and squid as well . they occasionally hunt in groups , and have even been known to attack full fishing nets .", "although this species is widespread and is not widely fished for food , it has one of the lowest reproduction rates of all sharks and is susceptible to even minimal population pressure . for this reason , it is listed as vulnerable and is protected in much of its range .", "after keigo mitsukuri ;

the intervening contact is lithologically inconspicuous but is instead marked biostratigraphically by the appearance of holaster simplex , hemiaster elegans , and exogyra americana [ 5 ] .", "a map of albian - age rocks in tarrant county , texas , showing the approximate location of omnh v1727 .", "within tarrant county , the duck creek formation is approximately 13 m thick and is comprised of limestone , marl , and chalky marl deposits exposed in the western half of the county ( fig 1 ) [ 4 ] . the duck creek formation is subdivided into two primary units based on lithology , and four primary zones based on fauna . lithologically , the first 7 m above the base of the duck creek are dominated by limestone . above 7 m , limestone beds become increasingly indurated , decrease in thickness , and are further interlaminated by marl or marly limestone [ 4 , 6 ] . biostratigraphic zones consist of three ammonoid faunas including the basal desmoceras zone , followed by the schloenbachia zone and a scaphites zone ; the uppermost faunal zone is marked by the appearance of the brachiopod genus kingena [ 4 ] .", "the base of a measured section at v1727 begins within the duck creek formation and correlates both lithologically and faunally with the ammonoid - rich limestone beds as described by winton and adkins [ 4 ] ( fig 2 ) . limestone dominates the measured section from the base to 6 m , where the first thinly - bedded marl deposits occur . despite significant portions of the section being covered by talus , the lithological transition to marl - dominated strata above 6 m is clearly defined and further supported by the appearance of kingena among the talus . the uppermost strata of the measured section consist of weathered , kingena - bearing marl with various echinoid fragments belonging to holaster simplex . these taxa imply the transition to the overlying fort worth formation ; however , no in situ bedforms were observed ; thus , at present , the contact can be inferred but not directly observed .", "initially , the three vertebrae discussed herein were collected from a displaced block of limestone resting among marl debris situated above the lower limestone strata of the duck creek formation . further specimens bearing similar dimensions , taphonomic characteristics , and proximity to omnh 68860 were recovered in situ by a private collector within the indurated limestone beds lying just below the kingena - bearing marls approximately 11 . 5 m above the base of section ( fig 3 ; l . hall , personal communication ) . the lithology of the strata containing the shark vertebrae found in situ matches the remaining matrix from omnh 68860 . furthermore , taphonomic similarities shared among all vertebrae indicated that the specimens recovered by the private collector must indeed represent one individual ( discussed below ) . the stratigraphic origin of the shark vertebrae can therefore be confidently placed below the lower kingena - bearing marl and within the indurated limestone of the upper duck creek formation , approximately 10 . 5 m above the base of the section .", "the surrounding lithology correlates with the indurated limestone bedforms 10 . 5 m above the base of the measured section ( photo courtesy of l . hall , 2013 ) .", "in order to estimate the total body lengths from individual vertebra , we made comparisons with cretaceous sharks that possess a more robust postcranial fossil record . as it is impossible to determine vertebral position in a shark based on isolated vertebrae alone [ 1 ] , we conservatively regard the vertebra with the maximum centrum diameter as the largest vertebra in the entire individual . this ensures that the estimates achieved represent the smallest hypothetical length possible for this specimen . additionally , we assume that the relationship between vertebral size and total body length is consistent between well - represented species and omnh 68860 . this assumption is reasonable because most pelagic sharks have a consistent body form [ 2 ] .", "similarly , gottfried et al .

[ 11 ] , where the midline foramina with the smallest inter - pit distance in each centrum are designated the basidorsal cartilage foramina . surprisingly , each of the two prepared vertebrae has multiple dorsal and ventral foramina ( five ventrals , seven dorsals each ) . the two foramina on the midline are generally the largest ; however , most do not extend to contact the corpus calcareum . all foramina are generally square with rounded corners and have a relatively smooth septum traveling into the vertebra . the additional foramina on the dorsal and ventral surface range in size , from 5 . 2\u201316 . 0 mm wide .", "there were no other shark fossils associated with omnh 68860 . however , all three possessed traces of encrusting ostreids on the articular surfaces , indicating that these vertebrae were exposed at the surface for some period of time . further , pyrite has developed near the center of both articular surfaces on the largest vertebra . the smallest of the three vertebrae retains a cast of the next vertebra\u2019s corresponding articular surface , giving this specimen a concavo - convex appearance in lateral view . the three centra also possess a single radial fracture ( 37 mm long in each vertebra ) . the common location of this fracture indicates that breakage occurred prior to the rearrangement of the vertebrae . although it cannot be completely determined whether omnh 68860 represents reworked material , abrasion is minimal , indicating that transportation was not extensive .", "using the formulas of shimada [ 2 ] and gottfried et al . [ 7 ] , and the maximum vertebral diameter of 110 mm , the minimum total length of the individual represented by omnh 68860 is calculated to be 6 . 3 and 6 . 6 m respectively . according to these calculations , omnh 68860 would rival the largest cretoxyrhina mantelli specimens ( 6\u20137 m ) [ 2 ] in total length and approximately equal the length of the largest documented extant great white shark ( carcharodon carcharias ) ( 6 . 4 m ) [ 12 ] .", "both omnh 68860 and kuvp 16343 represent relatively large mesozoic lamniform sharks ; however neither specimen would be considered extraordinary compared to some cenozoic species . for example , an associated specimen of carcharocles angustidens from the late oligocene has an estimated total body length of 6 . 6 \u2013 9 . 3 m [ 16 ] ; roughly matching that omnh 68860 and kuvp 16343 . neither species , however , comes close to the maximum length estimates for the largest lamniform shark , carcharocles megalodon . total length estimates for this species vary depending on the method , but multiple techniques yield a gigantic size ranging from 9 . 2\u201316 m [ 3 ] .", "morphological similarities between the kiowa and the duck creek sharks are further supported by the age of their respective assemblages . resemblances between the early cretaceous marine faunas of texas and kansas have long been recognized [ 17 ] , and more recent studies have indicated that the kiowa fauna correlates with that of the uppermost fredericksburg group and the lower washita group of texas [ 18 ] . the index fossil inoceramus comancheanus is found in the lower duck creek formation and the middle kiowa shale , demonstrating that at least some of the kiowa shale is equivalent in age to the duck creek formation . based on their stratigraphy , the kiowa shale and duck creek have both been placed in the upper albian stage of the lower cretaceous [ 19 ] .", "of the two lamniform species found in both formations , leptostyrax macrorhiza tend to be larger . in fact , teeth of this species represent some of the largest known shark fossils from the albian of texas , making it the most appealing suspect for the identification of omnh 68860 . however , these teeth are still generally smaller than those of the late cretaceous cretoxyrhina mantelli , a species with known vertebral proportions similar to those of omnh 68860 [ 15 , 20 ] . however , biostratigraphic evidence suggests that the texas vertebrae are not from c . mantelli , as teeth from this species do not appear in texas until the cenomanian [ 15 ] . further comparisons of omnh 68860 to those vertebrae of c . mantelli from the niobrara formation demonstrate stark differences .", "unlike most sharks , c . mantelli has a surprisingly complete fossil record , with multiple specimens preserving both teeth and postcranial material . vertebrae from this species tend to be large , exhibiting typical lamnoid - type centra , with a pair of cartilage foramina for both the neural and haemal arches ( personal observation ) . numerous radiating lamellae are also present that progressively decrease in number caudally down the vertebral column . these vertebrae differ from omnh 68860 in size , shape , and number of the cartilage foramina . specifically these foramina in omnh 68860 do not contact the corpus calcareum , are squarer , and are more numerous than in any published specimens of c . mantelli [ 11 , 20 ] .", "another late cretaceous lamniform shark with known postcranial material is cardabiodon ricki . c . ricki was first described based on teeth and vertebrae from the cenomanian of australia [ 21 ] . subsequently , teeth were also described from the cenomanian of kansas [ 22 ] and the turonian of central montana [ 23 ] . superficially , vertebrae from c . ricki are more comparable to the texas specimens than any of c . mantelli ; for example , the vertebrae are more elongate , have a thick corpus calcareum , and small cartilage foramina . however , omnh 68860 can be differentiated in that they have thinner and less densely spaced radial lamellae , square cartilage foramina , and concentric lamellae . these features , plus the absence of cardabiodon teeth from the albian of north america , make it unlikely that the texas specimen belongs to this genus .", "aside from leptostyrax macrorhiza , the only other lamniform shark known from both the kiowa shale and the duck creek formation is cretalamna appendiculata . the genus has a relatively long temporal range throughout the cretaceous , with a worldwide distribution [ 24 , 25 ] . in texas , there is an apparent size shift in teeth of c . appendiculata through the early to late cretaceous , where albian teeth tend to be relatively small , but gradually increase until reaching their largest sizes ( up to 30 mm ) in the maastrichtian . these larger late cretaceous specimens are considerably abundant in marine fossil sites [ 15 ] .", "reconstruction of the large lamniform sharks from the duck creek formation and kiowa shale .", "kuvp 16343 and omnh 68860 are both reconstructed as leptostyrax macrorhiza and modeled after an odontaspidid . this reconstruction was based on dental similarities shared between eoptolamnidae and odontaspididae [ 14 ] . both specimens represent the smallest calculated estimate based on the formula of shimada [ 2 ] . cretalamna appendiculata is reconstructed as a classic lamnid shark based on shared dental patterns between this genus and members of the family lamnidae [ 26 ] .", "alternatively , a third lamniform species is recognized in the albian of texas and kansas . carcharias amonensis , an odontaspidid , has been reported from the upper albian paw paw formation and the lower kiowa shale [ 15 , 27 ] . although this species is not known from associated vertebral material , known teeth are relatively small ( 11 mm in maximum height [ 15 ] ) , making this species an unlikely candidate for the vertebrae . given the absolute size and distinct morphology of omnh 68860 , it is highly unlikely that these vertebrae belong to any commonly known shark from the duck creek formation , except possibly leptostyrax macrorhiza .", "this discovery has further implications on the ecology of mesozoic oceans . in modern oceans , many large lamniform sharks are apex pelagic predators of marine and nearshore ecosystems . chondrichthyans the size of omnh 68860 would be among the largest predatory animals of the albian oceans , dwarfed only by some of the contemporaneous pliosaurs [ 31 , 32 ] . fossil tooth marks on dinosaurs [ 33 ] , mosasaurs [ 34 ] , plesiosaurs [ 35 ] , teleost fishes [ 36 ] , and turtles [ 37 ] , indicate that large lamniform sharks of the late cretaceous occupied the ecological position of generalist predator and scavenger , much as they do today . the discovery of omnh 68860 highlights an important ecological transition during the albian , where lamniform sharks begin to take on the massive sizes and trophic abilities seen most predominately in later occurring species . further , both omnh 68860 and kuvp 16343 represent albian species with minimum total lengths between 6 . 3\u20138 . 3 m . this suggests that the late early cretaceous was home to some of the largest mesozoic lamniform sharks of north america .", "large shark vertebrae were recovered from the lower cretaceous duck creek formation of texas . these vertebrae represent a single animal of approximately 6 . 3 m in minimum total length , making this individual one of the largest documented sharks from the early cretaceous of n . america .", "this specimen has unique morphology undocumented in any other cretaceous shark from north america , but shares large size with a contemporaneous vertebra from the kiowa shale of kansas .", "we hypothesize that these vertebrae belong to leptostyrax macrorhiza based on their size and co -

basally it passes imperceptibly into the ductus ejaculatorius .", "the only new zealand representative of this large australian genus is p . acroxantha meyr . , a comparatively recent addition to our lepidopterous fauna . the male genitalia of this species do not differ greatly from those of gymnobathra as far as the vinculum , tegumen and harpes go , but the rounded gnathos and peculiar juxta are distinctive .", "a monotypic and endemic genus . the uncus has almost disappeared and consists only of a rounded prominence behind the base of the gnathos . the gnathos itself is highly specialised , the frontal plate taking the form of a scoop - like expansion , outwardly thickly covered with backwardly directed short spines . the harpes are broad , apically truncate , and with a small thumb - like projection beyond the middle of the ventral margin . the aedeagus is rather short and stout .", "a small endemic genus containing three species . the uncus and gnathos are of the same type as those of the preceding genus , but the harpes are more normal in shape . reference to the figures will show the very distinctive characters of the aedeagus and juxta . no difficulty will be found in separating p . profunda meyr . and p . carnifex butl . , but a male of p . clarkei philp . has not been available for dissection .", "the single new zealand species , c . bifasciella walk . , of this south american genus is characterised by the peculiar bifid and laterally expanded uncus . the gnathos is rather weak with the frontal plate upcurved ; the harpes are of simple leaf - like type .", "the outstanding feature of the male genitalia of the two new zealand species of this genus is the complete absence of the uncus , the long anal tube being protected by a tuft of hair springing from the dorsal surface of the tegumen . the gnathos is very highly specialised . from near the apex of each lateral arm arises a racket - shaped organ of the same nature as the single structure of proteodes . the harpes are simple in type and the cephalic margin of the vinculum is deeply and widely excised .", "of the six new zealand species of cryptolechia two have not been available for examination . of the remaining four , three , c . apocrypta meyr . , c . compsotypa meyr . and c . liochroa meyr . form a related group , but the fourth , c . semnodes meyr . differs very considerably . the group just referred to is characterised by the absence of the gnathos , the development of processes on the inner surface of the harpes , the reduction of the vinculum to a narrow band and the strongly curved aedeagus . in c . liochroa the curving of the aedeagus is carried so far that the base and apex almost meet .", "in c . semnodes the harpes are simple , but the gnathos is present ;

species microarray with expanded content and sensitivity to investigate endocrine disruption in turbot captured near wastewater outfalls in san diego , orange county and los angeles california . analysis of expression of genes involved in hormone [ e . g . , estrogen , androgen , thyroid ] responses and xenobiotic metabolism in turbot livers was correlated with a series of phenotypic end points . molecular analyses of turbot livers uncovered altered expression of vitellogenin and zona pellucida protein , indicating exposure to one or more estrogenic chemicals , as well as , alterations in cytochrome p450 ( cyp ) 1a , cyp3a and glutathione s - transferase - \u03b1 indicating induction of the detoxification response . molecular responses indicative of exposure to endocrine disruptors were observed in field - caught hornyhead turbot captured in southern california demonstrating the utility of molecular methods for monitoring environmental chemicals in wastewater outfalls . moreover , this approach can be adapted to monitor other sites for contaminants of emerging concern in other fish species for which there are few available gene sequences .", "in recent years , as more knowledge has accumulated about the effects of chemicals such as bpa , organotins and phthalates , it has become clear that endocrine disruption is complex and involves the altered expression of many genes [ 2 , 4 , 7 ] . an important advance in detecting the effects of xenobiotics was the development of high - density dna microarrays or biochips [ 23 - 25 ] . this technology provides a sensitive and comprehensive snapshot of alterations in endocrine responses in fish that may be exposed to low levels of endocrine disrupting chemicals [ 19 , 26 - 28 ] . microarrays enable analysis of complex environmental chemical mixtures by providing transcriptomic profiles or signatures based on the contaminants present . however , it is important to link the molecular responses with physiological changes to determine if the responses at the gene expression level can cause down stream biological effects . we used an optimized microarray tool to examine gene expression in hornyhead turbot , a species which has not yet had its genome sequenced and annotated . this microarray is an improvement over an earlier microarray tool , which was developed using multi - species probes and validated by studying gene expression profiles in zebrafish , a species that is phylogenetically distant from turbot . this earlier work revealed that our multi - species microarray approach was suitable for measuring endocrine responses in turbot and other fish [ 19 ] . the rationale for use of 60 - mer oligonucleotides in the second generation platform described here is that they provide more specificity than cdna - based microarrays accommodate sequence differences and species specific codon usage [ 29 -

1 . 5 ) , and plotted their row and column coordinates in a 2d plot ( figure s2 ) . the probes were concentrated along a line , evidence that this represents a microarray artifact , and that caution is warranted when performing differential expression measurements using microarrays .", "samples of sediment from the sites where the hornyhead turbot were collected have been analyzed previously for a number of legacy and emerging chemicals [ 21 , 22 ] . a suite of 89 legacy and emerging contaminants were measured in the sediments . several contaminants were found at detectable levels amongst them legacy organochlorine pesticides and personal care compounds . many of the detected compounds such as ddts or triclosan are known to elicit endocrine and stress responses [ 21 ] . as seen in table 2 , several of the sediments contained 4 - nonylphenol , an estrogenic chemical , polybrominated diphenyl ethers ( pbdes ) , which are flame retardants , and polychlorinated biphenyls ( pcbs ) . the sediment obtained from dana point indicated that it was the least contaminated site of those examined . based on the physiochemical properties of these analytes , chemicals present in these sediments would be expected to enter the food chain of the turbot .", "pereiro p , balseiro p , romero a , dios s , forn -

transferase alpha ( gst\u03b1 ) . hepcidin is a peptide hormone produced by the liver [ 52 , 53 ] . hepcidin is a negative regulator of iron absorption and mobilization . thus , low levels of hepcidin promote iron absorption , and are indicative of an iron deficiency . hepcidin also serves as an antimicrobial peptide [ 54 ] . hepc1 was down - regulated strongly in all fish examined relative to the reference fish . this could be due to lower oxygen in the water in the field sites compared to the oxygen in the clean - water laboratory setting . another potential cause for lower hepcidin levels could be exposure to a xenoestrogen because robertson et al . [ 55 ] , recently demonstrated that exposure to estradiol decreased expression of hepcidin - 1 and blocked the induction of hepcidin - 2 expression by bacterial exposure in largemouth bass . this suggests that exposure of hornyhead turbot to either xenoestrogens or low oxygen levels may make fish more susceptible to disease by blocking production of hepcidin .", "a : gene expression changes were investigated in male turbot liver collected from exposed fish sampled from sanitation districts in san diego , orange county , dana point , los angeles city and los angeles county in california that are considered impacted . control fish were obtained from a separate monitoring station in dana point , a relatively non - impacted area and maintained in a clean - water laboratory for four weeks . the control reference sample consisted of a pool of labeled crna from three control fish , designated a , b , and c .", "together , the results obtained using the multi - species microarray and q - pcr to assess the endocrine status of male hornyhead turbots in five coastal field stations indicate that these fish were exposed to a mixture of endocrine disruptors capable of interacting with the estrogen and thyroid responses . despite the genetic heterogeneity of these wild fish and differential exposure to chemicals , food and environment the multi - species microarray identified differences in gene expression among fish captured from different field sites . these results validate this tool for comparisons of endocrine - disrupting contaminants at different sites and highlight the utility of the multi - species microarray approach as a sensitive diagnostic for the presence of endocrine disruptors in the aquatic environment .", "we amplified partial turbot transcripts using conserved sequences from other fish species to guide the choice of primer design . gene - specific primers were designed using oligowiz software [ 29 ] . all the amplicons were directly sequenced using the respective forward and reverse pcr primers . sequencing reads were subjected to a series of quality control measures , including a phred quality score > 20 , and manual trace inspection . the identity of each sequence was confirmed by blast searches . these sequences have been deposited into genbank ( accession numbers fj042791 - fj042800 ) . primer sequences are outlined in the supporting information ( table s2 ) .", "laboratory tests with marine flatfish were conducted to investigate associations among gene expression , higher biological responses and wastewater effluent exposure . in the present study , male hornyhead turbot ( pleuronichthys verticalis ) were exposed to environmentally realistic ( 0 . 5 % ) and higher ( 5 % ) concentrations of chemically enhanced advanced - primary ( pl ) and full - secondary treated ( htp ) effluents from two southern california wastewater treatment plants ( wwtp ) . hepatic gene expression was examined using a custom low - density microarray . alterations in gene expression ( vs . controls ) were observed in fish exposed to both effluent types . fish exposed to 0 . 5 % pl effluent showed changes in genes involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics , steroids , and lipids , among other processes . fish exposed to 5 % pl effluent showed expression changes in genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism , stress responses , xenobiotic metabolism , and steroid synthesis , among others . exposure to 5 % htp effluent changed the expression of genes involved in lipid , glutathione and xenobiotic metabolism , as well as immune responses . although no concentration - dependent patterns of response to effluent exposure were found , significant spearman correlations were observed between the expression of 22 genes and molecular and / or higher biological responses . these results indicate that microarray gene expression data correspond to higher biological responses and should be incorporated in studies assessing fish health after exposure to complex environmental mixtures .", "bsaf values for sediment to worms were similar to those determined from bao et al . ( 2013 ) and jia et al . ( 2014 ) , who observed a linear relationship of worms , total ddt observing bsaf values of 0 . 003 - 0 . 006 . the calculated bmf and bsaf values in this study ( 4 . 09 and 0 . 007 , respectively ) were comparable to previous values determined from lacsd ( 4 . 06 and 0 . 0026 , respectively ) ( lacsd 2014 ) . the higher values of \u03c3ddts in turbot from the fish exposed in the laboratory fed sediment - contaminated worms is consistent with biomagnification studies previously reported in the pv shelf ( zeng and tran 2002 ) .", "there was a robust correlation between expression of vtg and zp mrnas ( r = 0 . 99 ; p < 0 . 001 ) . this is reasonable because both genes are biomarkers for xenoestrogens and 4 - nonylphenol ; a plastic degradate detected in the sediments from where the turbot were collected . correlation analysis also revealed that expression of both genes showed very strong significant association with age , weight and length of the fish . furthermore , we found negative correlations of thyroid receptors and vtg / zp transcripts ( r ranged from - 0 . 5 to - 0 . 4 ; p < 0 . 05 ) , which could in part explained the lower thyroxine concentrations found in the plasma of these fish [ 46 ] .", ") . however , 7 - day trophic transfer experiments with \u03c3ddt failed to alter hepatic vtg , er\u03b1 and er\u03b2 mrna , even though body burden residues ( and biliary eeqs ) in fish were similar to those collected in the field . in the 28 - day study where fish were only treated with \u03c3ddt by gavage , vtg and er\u03b2 mrna were significantly upregulated in the liver of male turbot exposed , despite lower body burdens compared to the 7 - day food - borne fish and fish collected from pv . in addition , even though overall \u03c3ddt concentrations were lower in the 28 - day laboratory treated fish relative to pv fish , vtg mrna significantly correlated with hepatic \u03c3ddt residues in both field and the 28 day exposure .", "the hornyhead turbots have elongated oval fusiform highly compressed bodies that are widest in the middle ; their body depth is 49 to 53 % of standard length . they are dark brown to yellowish brown with irregularly -

34 ] . table 1 reveals that there is substantial variation in hormone levels among the fish collected from different sites and between fish from the same site . this may be due to a combination of factors including genetic heterogeneity in wild fish , variation in the age and life histories of the fish as well as variations in exposure to chemical contaminants , diet and reproductive status [ 1 , 35 , 36 ] . this variability among the fish in levels of plasma hormone and vitellogenin levels posed a challenge for evaluating the exposure of fish from the five sites to endocrine disruptors .", "wells were coated with 100\u00b5l of 0 . 8\u00b5g / ml california halibut vtg ( provided by amanda palumbo of uc , davis ) in 50mm carbonate buffer . non -

atlantic bight region ( figure 5 . 1 ) . both red hake stocks were last assessed in the fall of 1990 .", "hake is noted for its long , slender body and visible front teeth . only buy fish that are longer than 50cm with bright eyes and red gills . hake fillets should have firm white flesh with no discolouration , blemishing or bruising .", "on the southwest part of georges bank , in late june 1951 , but only 51 white hake . reported landings also , in pounds , for 1945 , were about 100 times as great for red as for white hake from the nantucket grounds , whence all the little hake are brought in for the trash fish industry . and the discrepancy is greater still in numbers , for the white hake are much the heavier of the two , individually . red hake also predominate over white among the hake landed in new york and to the southward , as is illustrated by the catch statistics for 1947 .", "the primary fishing gear used to catch red hake is the otter trawl . recreational catches , taken almost exclusively from the southern stock , have been of minor importance and have been negligible in recent years . in 2000 , the new england fisheries management council implemented amendment 12 to the northeast multispecies fishery management plan ( fmp ) , and placed red hake into the \u201csmall mesh multispecies\u201d management unit , along with silver hake and offshore hake . this amendment set retention limits based on net mesh size , adopted overfishing definitions for the northern and southern red hake stocks , identified essential fish habitat for all life stages , and set requirements for fishing gear ( nefmc 2000 ) . the survey indices used in this document differ from previous assessments in that vessel and door conversion coefficients have been incorporated ( nefsc 1991 ) .", "tend to be a mottled red / brown to olive / brown on their upper sides with large irregular pale light brown patches and becoming a dirty white to bright white underneath .", "during the spring and summer months , red hake move into shallower waters to spawn , and during the winter months move offshore to deep waters in the gulf of maine and the edge of the continental shelf along southern new england and georges bank .", "bank . but this would give a wholly false picture of the actual situation , because most of the red hake that are caught on these grounds are thrown overboard because they are too small to be worth gutting and icing under present market conditions .", "red hake ( urophycis chuss ) these fish have a tall first dorsal fin followed by a much longer second dorsal fin , and long narrow ventral fins . they are reddish - brown on top and yellowish - white on the belly . they have a small barbel on their chin . the maximum length for red hakes is 20 \" ( 50 cm ) , but they commonly grow no larger than 16 \" ( 40 cm ) .", "it has only been since 1944 that the landings of white hake and of red ( i . e . , squirrel ) hake have been reported separately . taken at their face value , these would point to the white hake as by far the more plentiful member of the pair throughout the inner parts of the gulf as a whole , and on georges bank . in 1945 , for example ,", "dealers issued federal dealer permits for small - mesh multispecies may not purchase more than 400 lbs of northern red hake per trip from federally permitted vessels for trips started after august 7 , 2017 . federally permitted dealers must continue to report all fish purchased from any vessel .", "red hake are rarely known to attain weights exceeding 6 or 7 pounds , so this particular fish can truly be considered a monster hake . white hake on the other hand are very similar looking and known to attain weights of as much as 40 pounds . since the two species are so similar and the weight of the fish watson caught was more in the white hake range , marine fisheries biologists diligently examined the fish to confirm its identification and its world record status .", "steiner , w . w . , j . j . luczkovich , and b . l . olla . 1982 . activity , shelter usage , growth and recruitment of juvenile red hake urophycis chuss . mar . ecol . prog . ser . 7 : 125 -

rayed the specimen to determine the number of abdominal vertebrae , another diagnostic character . this too identified the fish as a red hake and it has been added to the academy ' s extensive fish collection .", ", corresponding to the increase in landings by distant water fleets . during 1967 to 1983 , the survey index fluctuated without trend , and has since declined despite very low landings since the early 1980s . in 2005 , the stock biomass index for southern red hake was 0 . 78 kg per tow", "in 1998 the overfishing definition review panel ( applegate et al . 1998 ) concluded that msy and f reference points could not be determined for southern red hake because the time series of landings and survey biomass indices did not include a period of stable landings at high biomass levels . the panel noted that discarding could be significant , especially in the scallop and trawl fisheries . habitat destruction was also thought to be prohibiting stock recovery since juveniles rely on intact scallop beds for shelter . however , in recent years the scallop stock has been recovering , but red hake biomass indices have not increased .", "few fishermen target red hake when they go fishing . they do not put up a fight when hooked , do not grow that large , and have a meat that deteriorates quickly if not properly handled . mostly , they are considered just one of the neat species that make up the \" by - catch \" when fishing for cod , haddock , or pollock . if you were to actively fish for red hake , you would find that they will accept many different kinds of bait . clam is probably the most popular but seaworms , shrimp , and chunks of herring or mackerel will also take them . in fact , those that fish at night ( when they feed most actively ) with chunks of herring on a simple dropper rig will find very good results . you want to fish wrecks and other areas of heavy structure with an 8 - 16 ounce lead sinker to hold bottom . due to the sloth - like nature of these fish , articial lures are pretty much useless . although possible to snag one on a jig , this is the exception , rather than the rule . when it comes to fishing for red hake , you are far better off to stick with the still - fishing bait approach . fishing for red hake is only moderately important for commercial fisherman , making up a portion of the by - catch that is typically ground up for fish meal . here on the south shore of massachusetts , a fair number of red hake are caught by charter and party boats that take passengers out on all - day cod trips . the flesh of the red hake is white , flaky , and with a delicate sweetness that loses much of its flavor when repeatedy frozen and thawed . it is often used in chowders and is best fresh . the meat is softer than cod or haddock and turns rather rubbery and tasteless if not handled properly .", "hake is particularly loved in spain , where it is often grilled or baked and served with chorizo , paprika or garlic . try geoffrey smeddle ' s roast hake with chorizo , chickpeas and coriander . in fact , each region in spain seems to have its own hake dish . in basque country , it is often partnered with clams ; in galicia with garlic , tomato and onion ; in catalunya , it is often served with potato in a stew . paul aussignac pan - fries his hake and serves it with a red pepper relish .", "on the south shore , silver hake move inshore in numbers in the fall .", "affordable , versatile and very delicious , hake is a beautiful fish to cook .", "typically , hake is sold fresh or frozen but is occasionally sold salted or smoked .", "silver hake have an overall silver iridescent color on their sides with some light brown relections mixed in . color is slightly darker above and nearly pure white on the underside . fins are silver tinged with light brown . silver hake have two dorsal fins . the first being almost a perfect triangle , the second dorsal being about four times greater in size . athough a member of the cod family , they do not possess the distinctive barbel on their chin that is common with this family . it is more elongated than the cod , but not as eel - like in appearance as the red hake . it also does not share the red hakes long ventral fins . scales are very small and the head is relatively compressed . however , the mouth is large and filled with very sharp needle - like teeth .", ") . annual landings then declined sharply to 12 , 900 mt in 1970 , increased to 76 , 400 mt in 1972 , and then declined steadily with increased restrictions on distant - water fishing effort . prior to implementation of the magnuson fisheries conservation and management act ( mfcma ) in 1977 , distant - water fleets accounted for approximately 80 - 90 % of the total landings from both stocks . between 1977 and 1986 , landings generally declined due to restrictions placed on distant water fleets , and foreign landings ceased in 1987 ( brodziak 2001 ) . red hake landings continued to decline afterwards , and averaged only 1 , 100 mt per year during 1996 - 2005 . in 2005 , total red hake landings were a historic low of 300 mt", "from 2012 to 2015 , u . s . landings of silver hake decreased ~ 15 %", "no doubt the eggs of the white hake are bouyant like those of the squirrel hake ( p . 225 ) , but few wholly ripe females , no eggs naturally spawned , or young larvae have been seen yet .", "northern red hake landings and nefsc autumn survey biomass indices were relatively high until the mid - 1970s when the distant water fishery was at its maximum . landings have since declined to a historical low in 2005 . in 2005 , the exploitation index was well below the f msy proxy of 0 . 65 and the 3 -

known programmes since the early 1980\u2032s where biologists have studied the impacts of re - introducing a species into the habitat it once existed in .", "habitat and preferred localities that the butterfly can survive and thrive \u2013 those species which survive in the forested areas which are protected are more likely to be sustainable .", "larger and more robust species that are easier to be bred and withstand environmental pollution .", "its early stages and whether the caterpillars may cause other species ( even besides butterflies ) to be affected by their presence .", "whether the intentional cultivation of the host plant may affect the floral ecological balance .", "there have been several successes of butterfly re - introduction programmes in the west , in particular , two examples being the karner blue ( lycaeides melissa samuelis ) in ohio , usa and the large blue ( phengaris arion ) butterfly which was declared extinct in the uk in 1979 , but has been successfully re - introduced .", "it is not known whether there have been any similar re - introduction programmes in southeast asia , nor any research papers done to document if there have been any successes . thus far , internet searches have delivered only reports of butterfly re - introductions from western countries .", "from those checklists , a selection of e . g . 5 - 6 species could be done , and studies conducted on populations of these species where they still exist . the nearest populations of some of these species would be a mere hour\u2019s drive up north into the malaysian state of johor .", "once observations and reports are made of these species in their natural habitats and general behaviour and habits of the species , host plants , early stages and so on , the search for possibly similar habitats be made in singapore , where the species could be re - introduced . one premise that should be established would be the availability of the caterpillar host plant in singapore , its abundance , and extent of spread across the island . care must be taken , of course , that the host plant is already native to the singapore flora checklist and not to introduce an exotic species of plant to singapore .", "prior to the re - introduction programme , the host plant must be cultivated , perhaps under the national parks board\u2019s supervision , at locations like singapore\u2019s urban parks , gardens , park connectors and so on , where the cultivation of the plants can be supervised and observed .", "once there is enough critical mass of the host plant ( that is , assuming that the plant is not common in the first instance ) , then the import of pupae or wild - captured males and females of the target species is released into the wild . unlike mammals , there is no need to \u2018train\u2019 the released butterflies to hunt or adapt to its new surroundings .", "it has always been a subject of debate , whether human intervention is advisable where the survival of a species is concerned . they may have gone extinct for a good reason , and bringing them back into the environment may not necessarily be a good thing . however , one can always argue that a species has gone extinct , precisely because of human intervention in the first instance ( like development , land clearing , removal of a plant species , pollution in the environment , and so on ) . hence where humans have been the cause for the extirpation of a species , it would only be right that humans make amends to bring the species back .", "the debate will not ever end , as there will always be proponents on both sides , extolling the pros and cons of whether to re - introduce a species , or not . as a supporter of butterfly re - introduction , i would personally recommend that further observations and studies continue to be carried out before a pilot scheme for a re - introduction be attempted .", "\u2013 re - introduction case studies from around the globe : edited by pritpal s . soorae \u2013 \u00a9 2008 iucn / ssc re - introduction specialist group", "\u2013 not quite yet the number of spartans who made history under king leonidas at the battle of thermopylae . but that\u2019s the number of articles on this blog with this post , chugging along with at least an article a week , sometimes more , for the past three years .", "it is now 11 nov 2010 , and this blog has soldiered on since it was set up on 16 aug 2007 and the first articles on our beloved butterflies started on 5 nov 2007 . since then , we have produced articles of interest about butterflies , ranging from behaviour and ecology , early stages , conservation , photography , travelogues and so on . in a manner of speaking , we can now celebrate our third anniversary of this butterflies of singapore blog .", "i would like to thank my fellow members at butterflycircle , many of whom had written articles for this blog , or have been willing to share their photographic works of butterflies . in particular , my sincere thanks to horace tan , who has written some of the most engaging and informative articles on the early stages of singapore\u2019s butterflies available to date \u2013 complete from egg to eclosion and many with amazing video clips of the butterflies\u2019 moulting , pupation and eclosion .", "we hope that this blog will be able to continue in the years to come as we endeavour to share and learn more about our beloved flying jewels in singapore and beyond our shores . this is our contribution to biodiversity conservation and education in singapore and for all and sundry to learn and enjoy the articles .", "there have been a couple of unkind individuals who have criticised and trivialised the articles and even the recent field guide that was a culmination of years of effort and the combined work of many butterflycircle members . to these unhappy individuals , we can only express our sympathy , as it merely reflects their childish behaviour and unfortunate upbringing that they seek only to destroy the work that others have done .", "we would urge them to make peace with whatever unhappiness that they have in their lives , and channel their energies to do their own part in promoting the appreciation of butterflies and spend their time more productively , instead of making unsavoury remarks from the sidelines \u2013 which only undermines their own credibility and wins them no respect from the nature community in singapore .", "we are , however , encouraged by the growing membership in butterflycircle , and with more mature and sincere individuals who are able to contribute productively in this hobby and past -

natural habitats , making agriculture today the predominant land use , occupying around 46 . 8 % of the 316km", "the types of water bodies and their distribution at the sites investigated during this study .", "the pervasive role played by vegetation in the odonate life cycle makes it , a priori , likely that macrophytes are prominent among cues used for habitat selection ( corbet 1999 ) . literature suggests that odonata assemblages are influenced by the presence of aquatic plants ( clark & samways 1996 ; stewart & samways 1998 ; schindler et al . 2003 ; samways & taylor 2004 ; hofmann & mason 2005 ) , with the structure and the \u2018architecture\u2019 of the plants , or the communities they form , likely to be important for adult habitat selection ( corbet 1999 ) .", "vegetation assessment of the sites consisted of two 10 m belt transects of 1 m width over riparian vegetation at the land - water interface of the survey sites for odonate diversity , lotic water bodies , or the long side of lentic water bodies . meanwhile , four 5 m by 1 m transects were laid perpendicular to these , with the aim to provide an indication of how vegetation changed with increasing distance from the water bodies . within these transects , plant abundance , distribution data , and physiognomic characteristics , in terms of vertical stratification and characteristic life form , were obtained from a series of contiguous quadrats laid down along a transect . a square ( 1 m \u00d7 1 m ) quadrat was used for this study . the quadrat was subdivided into a number of sectors of equal area in order to increase accuracy of recording when measuring abundance ( kent & coker 1995 ) . the abundance of each species within each quadrat was assessed by counting the number of sectors within which the species was represented , either in whole or in part . this figure was expressed as a proportion of the total number of sectors in the quadrat .", "for each quadrat , vertical stratification ( the arrangement of phytomass into vertical layers ) was measured by counting the number of interceptions per species at each height class at the centre of the quadrat . a 20vmm diameter , 4 m height wooden pole was divided into 7 height classes ( 0\u20130 . 20 , 0 . 21\u2013 0 . 50 , 0 . 51\u201310 , 1 . 01\u20131 . 50 , 1 . 51\u20132 . 00 , 2 . 01\u20132 . 50 , 2 . 51\u20133 . 25 , 3 . 25\u20134 . 00 , > 4m ) . the height of vegetation was measured from the ground to the height of the highest vegetation shoot , with vegetation > 4m considered as canopy cover . in addition to vertical stratification , the physiognomy of the vegetation may also be profoundly affected by the life form of dominant vegetation ( kuchler 1988 ) , that is the presence of common morphological features that are usually assumed to be an adjustment to important environmetnal factors ( mueller - dombois and ellenberg 1974 ; zonneveld 1988 ) . the percentage cover of the various life forms present within the site ( graminoids , forbs , subshrubs , shrubs and trees ) , as well as details relating to species composition , were collected for each quadrat .", ") . the landscape surrounding semi - natural and freshwater bodies ( n = 6 ) was surveyed through the use of orthophotos , taken in 2004 , and having a resolution of 1 pixel : 15 cm . fiddien and qlejg\u0127a form part of the same valley system and given their physical proximity only the former site was considered . different land use and land cover categories (", ") were identified and mapped as polygons . digitized data had the same level of resolution as the ortophotos . landscape metrics were derived from patch analyst 4 , an arcgis extension which enables spatial analysis of landscape patches (", ") at the landscape level , the shannon diversity index ( sdi ) was used to quantify the diversity of the agricultural landscapes . in addition , the mean perimeterarea ratio ( mpar ) , and the number of patches for the various landscapes under study , were also obtained . at the class level , the number of patches ( np ) , the proportion of the landscape ( p", ") , the mean patch size ( mps ) , and the mpar were calculated .", "general patterns for odonata . because the number of sampling occasions for the sites varied , as a result of the differential availability of water at the different study sites , the data was standardized by averaging the total number of recorded individuals for each species on ten visits for each water body . renyi diversity profiles ( t\u00f3thm\u00e9r\u00e9sz 1995 ) , which provide information on richness and evenness of study sites , were used to compare the diversity of odonates between semi - natural sites and habitat types ( kindt and coe 2005 ; oksanen et al . 2010 ) . the major advantage of r\u00e9nyi diversity profiles is that sites can easily be ordered from high to low diversity . subsequently , the shannon diversity index ( h ) was used to provide a measure of relative diversity for odonata and larvae , as well as vegetation diversity . the diversity values for odonate larvae were not normally distributed ( shapiro - wilk test , w = 0 . 7551 , p = 0 . 006 ) , and subsequent analysis with these values was non - parametric .", "multiscale habitat variation and odonata . in order to analyze the association of different species to the environmental variables at the scales studied , a principal component analysis was carried out using the vegan package in r ( oksanen et al . 2010 ) . pca is a multivariate technique based on linear assumptions , which is preferable to use when the species has low beta diversity ( lep\u0161 and smilauer 2003 ) , as was the case with the data in this study . to aid interpretation , the environmental variables were fitted onto the pca ordination plot using the vegan \u2018envfit\u2019 function ( oksanen et al . 2010 ) . on an ordination plot , this function fits a centroid of levels of a class variable , and calculates an r 2 value as a measure of separation among the different levels of that variable . additionally , a significance value for the r 2 was calculated using 1000 random permutations of the category levels . explanatory variables identified to have a p - value < were subsequently correlated with pc1 and pc2 site scores through a pearson ' s correlation ( r foundation for statistical computing 2010 ) .", "temporal availability of water within the selected aquatic habitats varied . in one of the water bodies ( wied hesri ) , water presence was limited to the wetter months , and thus the habitat was unable to host any adult odonates . consequently , it was omitted from adult odonata monitoring . in total , 643 adult odonate individuals belonging to nine species were recorded . since water persistence varied with site , species abundance data was standardized for each water - body (", ") . these standardized data were used in subsequent data analyses , unless otherwise stated . the two sites characterised by higher salinity levels , ballut ( marsaxlokk ) marshland and ramla 1 - hamra ( gozo ) , showed the lowest level of species diversity . a comparison of the renyi profiles (", ") produced for all four types of habitats revealed that lentic and lotic semi - natural waterbodies were normally more diverse than agricultural reservoirs and semi - natural habitats with higher salinity levels . for agricultural reservoirs , two species ,", "( brull\u00e9 1832 ) , were the most abundant , with the other species only recorded on single occasions . a comparison of renyi profiles for lotic water - bodies with a perennial and ephemeral water availability did not show any difference in odonata diversity (", ") . a paired t - test , to compare the abundances of recorded odonates in both types of watercourses , suggested that they were not significantly different ( t = -

bodies . only two species ,", ", were entirely confined to lentic habitats . this may suggest that the odonata fauna of malta is mainly composed of euryoecious species that are able to utilize different aquatic habitats along a flowing - standing water continuum of habitat types . this contrasts with other studies investigating the influence of habitat characteristics on odonata assemblages that have identified particular dragonfly associations to specific habitat types (", ") . habitat associations of the recorded species obtained by pca suggest that even though most of the odonate species recorded were recorded in lotic water - bodies , nearly all species were more strongly associated with the lentic habitats . records of larval odonata were mainly confined to lentic water - bodies , confirming observations made in other studies that adult sightings may not always predict larval distribution (", ") , and indicating that standing water - bodies within the study area may be particularly important for dragonfly conservation . similar observations have been made elsewhere , where it has be suggested that in rapidly changing lotic environments , which tend to dry up during the dry season and are often fast - flowing and scouring during the wet season , larval survival following oviposition is relatively lower (", "in light of the rapid changes characterizing agricultural landscapes , an important issue is the scale at which the habitat is measured . the habitat has been defined as the collection of resources and conditions required by , and accessible to , individuals of a species at a location ( dennis et al . 2003 , 2007 ) . because the habitat is necessarily the location where an organism lives out its life - cycle , a suitable habitat must meet the ecological needs of all life - stages . the terrestrial landscape is probably as important as the aquatic habitat ( corbet 1999 ) , as it provides several conditions and resources that are required by the adult phase . previous studies have indicated that responses in abundance and / or occurrence to local waterbody and landscape characteristics differ among species ( conrad et al . 1999 ) and life - history groups ( samways 1996 ; krawchuk and taylor 2003 ; kadoya et al . 2008 ) . pca results suggest that the presence of c . erythraea and i . genei were related to disturbed areas , coastal land cover , and marine habitats , all of which characterize the landscapes of il - qattara and ta ' sarraflu water - bodies in which these two species were the most abundant . o . trinacria , which has been recently recorded in the maltese islands ( ebejer et al . 2008 ) , was recorded in all lentic water - bodies , but with a relatively higher abundance at one site that is characterized by a low landscape diversity and a lack of valley systems within the landscape . conversely , o . coerulescens anceps appeared to be related to relatively heterogeneous landscapes , and the presence of associated lotic water bodies .", "these contrasting associations for the two orthetrum spp . may be a result of the different habitat preferences of these species , with o . coerulescens anceps normally associated with small ponds and streams with a gentle current , while o . trinacria is associated with large bodies of standing water ( askew 2004 ) . the availability of suitable habitat that is likely to maintain source populations ( sensu pulliam 1988 ) , such as gently flowing streams , is likely to determine the distribution of o . coerulescens anceps within these lanscapes . the multiscale approach adopted within this study permits the identification of unique habitat characteristics for different sites , and the influence these could potentially have on odonate community structure .", ") , a factor which is clearly related to the reproductive ecology of the surveyed species .", "( selys 1840 ) was recorded only in the spring period , with their population subsequently declining to nil . populations of"]}

all remaining genera are recovered as valid and monophyletic . the general relationships between mochokid genera are illustrated in the phylogeny below .", "even more peculiar is the habit of some species of synodontis that are known to swim upside - down . this habit seems to be correlated with feeding while upside - down at the water\u2019s surface ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1965b ) , but upside - down catfishes will rest and swim in the inverted position on a regular basis . chapman et al . ( 1994 ) showed that an upside - down posture near the surface also facilitates respiration in poorly oxygenated water . while the genus synodontis presents the most well - known species with their fascinating behaviors and natural histories , the family is actually much more interesting when taken as a whole .", "synodontis : from the greek syn , meaning together , and odontos , meaning tooth ; in reference to the closely - spaced lower jaw teeth . in honour of the german researcher dr . g . a . fischer , who collected the first species of fishes known to science from lake victoria and some other places within east africa .", "beyond information gleaned from captive breeding of certain species of synodontis , very little is known about reproduction in mochokids . the best studied mochokids in this regard are most likely nile river synodontis ( including s . membranacea and s . batensoda , previously placed in other genera ) . still , details are limited ; the studies indicate that spawning occurs from july to october , which coincides with the flooding season , and that pairs swim in unison during spawning bouts ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1968 ) . the most interesting and detailed information on mochokid reproduction relates to a species from lake tanganyika , synodontis multipunctatus , which is a brood parasite of mouth brooding cichlids such as simochromis and haplochromis ( sato , 1986 ; wisenden , 1999 ) . adults of this species spawn in the midst of spawning cichlids and the fertilized catfish eggs are taken into the mouth of a cichlid . the catfish eggs hatch first and will eat the host eggs before they leave the host mouth . most amazingly , this species has been able to parasitize mouth brooding cichlids from south america in captivity ( loiselle , 1998 ) .", "synodontis : from the greek syn , meaning together , and odontos , meaning tooth ; in reference to the closely - spaced lower jaw teeth . the species is named for the collector of the holotype , dr . ben van der waal , in recognition of his donations of fish collections from northern nanibian rivers to the j . l . b . smith institute of icthyology and the albany museum .", "dorsal view of heads illustrating sexual dimorphism of the opercular spine in synodontis acanthoperca : a . cu 89005 , male holotype , 44 . 1 mm sl ; b . cu 89006 , female paratype , 40 . 4 mm sl . the pectoral spines in both specimens have been removed from the images to make the margins of the head more distinct against the background . scale bar equals 1 mm . \u00a9", "little is known about the ecology of most mochokids . what is known pertains mostly to diet and is biased towards species of synodontis . stomach contents from synodontis have included insects , nematodes , crustaceans , mollusks , annelids , seeds , algae , diatoms , fish scales and , incidentally , sand ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1965a ; bishai & abu gideiri , 1965b ; winemiller & kelso - winemiller , 1996 ; sanyanga , 1998 ) . from observations of stomach contents , the diet of most mochokids is probably very similar ; that is , they are omnivores . for some of the larger sucker - mouthed species ( i . e . , atopochilus and euchilichthys ) the stomach contents contain a high proportion of silt , algae and detritus . for these taxa it seems likely that scraping or grazing is the predominant method of feeding .", "all species in the genus synodontis have a hardened head cap that has attached a process ( humeral process ) which is situated behind the gill opening and pointed towards the posterior . the dorsal fin and pectoral fins have a hardened first ray which is serrated . caudal fin is always forked . there is one pair of maxillary barbels , sometimes having membranes and occasionally branched . the two pairs of mandibular barbels are often branched and can have nodes attached . the cone - shaped teeth in the upper jaw are short . s - shaped and movable in the lower jaw . these fish produce audible sounds when disturbed rubbing the base of the pectoral spine against the pectoral girdle . it is very similar in colour pattern to the more commonly encountered synodontis nigriventris . the main differences being that s . contracta has a bigger head , broader mouth and far larger eye .", "the mochokidae are a family of african catfishes known commonly as \u2018squeakers\u2019 and \u2018upside - down catfishes . \u2019 these common names refer to some unusual habits of certain members of the large genus synodontis . the name squeaker refers to the fact that , when agitated , many species in the genus are capable of making a squeaking noise by stridulation of the pectoral spine against the pectoral girdle ( jubb , 1967 ) ; stridulation is also apparent in mochokiella paynei and some species of atopochilus .", "pigmentation and patterning of mochokid skin is also diverse . mochokids are popular in the pet trade because they have showy colors , sharply contrasting patterns like stripes and polka - dots and , quite often , extravagant fins . as some of the largest and most active mochokids , species of synodontis display an amazing array of patterns and pigmentation that may , in some cases , serve as visual cues to conspecifics . it might also be true that the bright , contrasting coloration found in some species serves as a warning to predators . like many catfishes , some mochokids possess specialized poison glands for delivering offensive chemicals along with a \u2018stick\u2019 by the pectoral spine ; anecdotal accounts indicate that these wounds can be very painful . however , field studies that might demonstrate function of these varied patterns have not been done .", "many mochokid species exhibit obvious sexual dimorphism . for example , many species in the genus chiloglanis show dimorphism of the caudal and anal fins ( roberts , 1989 ; seegers , 1996 ; friel & vigliotta , 2006 ) ; some chiloglanis also display sexual dimorphism of the cleithral process , wherein males possess a greatly enlarged process shielding the flank . in the closely related genus atopochilus , sexual dimorphism of the anal fin is sometimes evident . some mochokids exhibit spiny ornamentation of the skull roof bones , opercular series and pectoral girdle ( friel & vigliotta , 2006 ) . in the case of synodontis acanthoperca , a spine found at the rear of the opercle is , itself , sexually dimorphic . the spines of males are much larger than those of females . this is also true for mochokiella paynei ( personal observation ) , which was previously unknown to possess opercular spines or exhibit sexual dimorphism .", "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 .", "brummett , r . , mbe tawe , a . n . , dening touokong , c . , reid , g . m . , snoeks , j . staissny , m . , moelants , t . , mamonekene , v . , ndodet , b . , ifuta , s . n . b . , chilala , a . , monsembula , r . , ibala zamba , a . , opoye itoua , o . , pouomogne , v . , darwall , w . & smith , k .", "to make use of this information , please check the < terms of use > .", "greek , syn , symphysis = grown together + greek , odous = teeth ( ref . 45335 )", "the specific name is in reference to the woleu river of gabon , the type locality for this new species ( ref . 78430 )", "maturity : l m ? range ? - ? cm max length : 5 . 1 cm sl male / unsexed ;

position\u201d , in which the male grasps the females barbels between his pectoral fin and body . he then releases some sperm and it\u2019s thought that this passes through the mouth and gills of the female , being directed towards her pelvic fins . these she uses to form a \u2018basket\u2019 , into which she deposits a single egg ( although up to 4 may be released ) . once this is fertilised , she swims away to find a suitable place to deposit the egg , before the cycle is repeated . if you spawn the fish in a group situation , you will often see multiple males chasing a female as she goes to deposit an egg , in an effort to be the next chosen to fertilise eggs .", "the adults will eat their spawn given the opportunity , so once spawning is complete you have 2 choices . either remove the adults and raise the brood in the same tank , or move the eggs and raise the fry elsewhere . if you decide to move the eggs , you\u2019ll find they\u2019re quite robust , and can usually be gently rolled up the glass with a finger . the new container should contain the same water as the spawning tank and be similarly well - oxygenated . wherever you decide to hatch the eggs , it\u2019s always best to add a few drops of methylene blue to the water to prevent fungussing . even then some eggs will probably fungus , and these should be removed as soon as they\u2019re spotted in order to prevent the fungus spreading .", "the eggs hatch in 3 -

induced systemic bacterial diseases . its brilliant coloration makes it well worth a little additional effort however . hopefully tank - reared fish will prove somewhat hardier than their wild progenitors , for this lovely little cichlid deserves the same wide popularity among hobbyists that its egyptian counterpart has always enjoyed .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder , which originates from the nile river , will grow to 2 . 5 inches in length and is well suited for most community tanks . this small cichlid is very peaceful as long as its companions are too large for it to swallow .", "for many decades , mouthbrooding in tropical fish was a limited and unique method of spawning . many thought only a few fish spawned in this manner . however , that was before the east african invasion of the 1960s and \u201870s , when the multitude of malawian mouthbrooders came into the hobby . now , when one mentions \u201ccichlid , \u201d many people think of mouthbrooders . before the 1960s , when hobbyists mentioned \u201cmouthbrooder , \u201d the little egyptian mouthbrooder ( pseudocrenilabrus multicolor ) or its close , brightly colored cousin , the southern egyptian mouthbrooder ( p . multicolor victoriae ) were the fish they were talking about . no other fishes with this behavior were commonly known to hobbyists .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder it is also referred to as the haplochromis multicolor mouthbreeder . however , even though the descriptions of the fish are almost identical and i believe them to be the same fish , depending on the source you research , and how old that source is both names are correct .", "all other varieties are huge 14 - 24 inches full grown and will absolutely destroy your aquarium ! the beauty of breeding the dwarf egyptian mouthbrooder is just how simple it can be to breed and keep this fish compared to just about any other egg laying fish that will care for its young .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder will accept almost all food and can be feed flake food . you should strive to give them a varied diet . they do well on a base diet of flake food but i highly recommend complementing the diet with frozen food . these fishes really appreciate live food every now and then .", "feeding : as a rule , the egyptian mouthbrooder eats anything it is given , they can live happy healthy lives even on straight flake food . however for best results breeding , feed insect larvae such as mosquito larva , red worm , daphnia , white worms or brine shrimp to condition this feeding should be frequent and heavy to encourage breeding activity .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder is hardy little cichlid that is very suitable for beginners . it is easy to keep and breed . this cichlid used to be very common a few decades ago but have become increasingly rare over the year . you can still find it in stores from time to time but is not a part of the standard stock in most fish stores .", "egyptian mouthbrooders can be kept in relatively small aquariums and a group can be kept in a 20 gallon / 90l tank . the aquarium should be decorated with densely planted areas as well as open areas , and the fish should be provided with plenty of suitably sized caves . at least one cave per fish is required . small split clay post and coconuts make good caves . it is a good idea to create natural territorial borders since some fish can be quite aggressive and natural territorial borders can help defuse this aggressiveness . egyptian mouthbrooders are suitable for community tanks with similarly sized fish that are though enough to tolerate the temperament if the egyptian mouth brooder . do not keep egyptian mouthbrooders with timid fish .", "behavior : surprisingly peaceful for a cichlid . the dwarf egyptian mouthbrooder can be kept in a community aquarium with fish its own size , much like angel fish , another semi - peaceful cichlid . however like all cichlids , this fish becomes territorial and aggressive at breeding time , will damage or kill its own kind if more than its mate is in the aquarium when breeding commences .", "it\u2019s surprising that you don\u2019t see the southern egyptian mouthbrooder for sale very often , considering their bright colors , peaceful demeanor and ease of spawning . if you come across this diminutive beauty , don\u2019t hesitate to pick up a small group of them to add to a planted community tank . with proper care , you\u2019ll be able to say that you\u2019ve completed another successful adventure in fish breeding .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder has been a staple of the aquarium hobby ever since its introduction by schoeller . until quite recently it was believed that the ugandan populations of p . multicolor were identical to those native to egypt and the sudan . in the spring of 1972 , ugandan fish were imported into the united states in quantity . they had been brought in sporadically somewhat earlier by german importers and distributed under the trade names \" haplochromis kiravira \" or \" haplochromis kirawira . \" as reference to the accompanying illustrations will indicate , the ugandan fish differ markedly in color pattern from the egyptian fish previously available to aquarists .", "decades before there were african cichlids clubs , websites , and stores that specialize in all things african cichlid , there was only one , the egyptian mouthbreeder . well , there were others from the congo river , but the egyptian was the first of the class that would become african cichlids . you see they actually came from the part of the lakes famous for all the fish we classify as african cichlids today .", "the egyptian mouthbrooder can tolerate temperatures as low as 13\u00b0 c for short periods of time , while prolonged exposure to 16\u00b0 c appears to do it no harm . since this cichlid ranges as far north as the nile delta , this is hardly surprising . data are lacking on tolerable minimum temperatures for the ugandan mouthbrooder . given its exclusively tropical distribution , it seems imprudent to expect a tolerance for temperatures lower than 18\u00b0 c . both populations of p . multicolor can tolerate briefly temperatures as high as 32\u00b0 c , but a range of 24\u00b0 - 29\u00b0 c is more appropriate for their aquarium maintenance . like other haplochromines , all pseudocrenilabrus eat more heavily , behave more aggressively and have a shorter developmental interval at the upper end of their preferred temperature range .", "one of my small egyptian mouthbrooders with her few days old fry . she will guard and protect them with her life , well at least for a couple of days , and on the the third day she will eat them : - )", "the status of these distinctive populations remains to be determined . for the present , i would suggest retaining the traditional egyptian mouthbrooder as a designation for the nilotic populations and utilizing the designation of ugandan mouthbrooder for those occurring south of murchison falls and the semliki rapids . the latter have been available through commercial channels under the trade names given earlier , as well as under the very misleading name of haplochromis fasciatus , which is properly that of a morphologically distinctive haplochromine native to the lower reaches of the congo river , many thousands of miles to the west of uganda . in several recent german publications ( mayland , 1978 ; richter , 1980 ) this fish has also been discussed under the name pseudocrenilabrus philander dispersus , a very different congener native to southern africa that will be discussed in the second portion of this article .", "soon at about 3\u20134 weeks from when the eggs were first laid , the fry will venture off into the plants throughout the breeding tank . at this point , the female should be feed back to normal size and ready to go back into your community tank or where ever you keep the rest of your egyptian\u2019s . use the breeding tank to raise the fry , 3\u20134 months later , you should have 30 or so very healthy 1 and 1 / 2 egyptian mouthbrooders ready to sell , or give to friends , and let them enjoy this wonder of nature !", "welcomme ( 1973 ) reported that in nature , the number of free - swimming fry released by females of the ugandan mouthbrooder ranges from 17 for females in the 3 . 0 cm - 3 . 5 cm size range to 63 for females in the 5 . 6 cm - 6 . 0 cm range , a considerably smaller number than would be expected given the number of eggs typically spawned by females in these size classes . the same pattern is characteristic of the egyptian mouthbrooder in captivity . welcomme ascribes the discrepancy to wastage generated by relatively inefficient mechanisms of fertilization and brooding . insofar as partial cannibalism of her brood during incubation by an ovigerous female can be described as inefficient , i would concur with the latter hypothesis , but i consider it very unlikely that any eggs manage to escape fertilization given the combination of extra - and intra - buccal fertilization practiced by members of this genus .", "hi kfenk , i saw your post and was just wondering how you went getting your egyptian mouthbrooders ? i ' ve recently acquired a pair and am raising my first brood . i ' m not sure how well they would travel , but id be happy to send some your way .", "the 2 - inch female is the claim to fame for the southern egyptian mouthbrooder . this plain silvery fish with no other finery takes the eggs into her mouth upon completion of the spawning act and broods them in an area of specially modified throat tissue , known as a buccal pouch , until they hatch and for a while after . this brooding period can last two weeks or even longer , during which time she does not eat . this is probably an instinctual response to her brooding , so she won\u2019t eat her own fry . her body slowly wastes away , while the growing fry in her mouth make her head look larger in proportion to her diminishing body . during the last stages of their development , the fry have grown large enough that the skin of the buccal pouch is stretched so thin and taut that you can make out the individual fry . you can see 100 small eyes looking back at you as the day of release draws close .", "this species is very easy to breed and a perfect choice for anyone who want to breed their first cichlid or their first mouth brooder . condition the fish by giving them a good varied diet . increasing the temperature can help trigger spawning . they dig a hole in the sand where they spawn . the female will then take the eggs into her mouth where she will keep eggs and fry for about 10 days . once the fry is released they will retreat into the mothers mouth at night or when in danger during the next week or so . the female becomes very aggressive after spawning and if kept in a small aquarium the male has to be removed after spawning or the female might kill him . in larger aquariums , the male can stay but he will need good hiding places . each spawning only results in a small number of fry ; usually below 40 but in rare cases a spawning can result in up to 80 fry . egyptian mouthbrooder fry can be fed newly hatch brine shrimp from day 1 .", "the southern egyptian mouthbrooders are diminutive cichlids that come to us from the upper reaches of the nile river and several vegetation - choked backwaters of its tributary streams just north of lake victoria . they spend their entire lives there among the stems of water lilies and other aquatic plants in shallow , slow - flowing or stagnant waters ; they are not found in open waters . keep this in mind when setting up an aquarium for them . they make excellent , colorful additions to the lower regions of a planted community tank .", "at a maximum size of about 2 . 5 inches , this fish certainly qualifies as a dwarf cichlid . however , members of the genus pseudocrenilabrus are unique among dwarf cichlids , in that they are all maternal mouthbrooders . with a few exceptions , most other known dwarf cichlids are cave spawners . the colors of the male southern egyptian mouthbrooders are very bright and have made this fish popular for many decades . reminding the observer of a brightly colored bird , the male is lemon yellow , with bright blue lips and blue dots covering the rear half of his body and into his fins . his anal fin is often bright red , even from a young age when the other colors are still developing .", "both forms of p . multicolor are in the hobby at present , though the ugandan mouthbrooder tends to be of sporadic and often very localized availability . interestingly , there tends to be a great preponderance of males among imported ugandan fish . as is typically the case with haplochromines , the males are by far the more colorful sex . the unbalanced sex ratios of imported ugandan mouthbrooders may reflect either ignorance of the true appearance of the female or alternatively , a reluctance to ship dull colored specimens that may not sell well . such a state of affairs is not unfamiliar to hobbyists who work with the endemic haplochromines of lake malawi . whatever its cause , it greatly hinders efforts to establish tank - reared populations of these cichlids , a fact which in my more cynical moments offers itself as another plausible explanation for the occurrence of such imbalances .", "the slender fry of both populations can take the smallest artemia nauplii , micro - worms and finely powered prepared foods for their initial meal . they will not tolerate dirty or crowded tanks , but are otherwise easily reared . growth is relatively slow . welcomme reports that in nature , the ugandan mouthbrooder does not attain sexual maturity until the seventh month post - release , as 2 . 8 cm sl for males , 2 . 6 cm sl for females . in captivity , secondary sexual coloration becomes evident in males of both populations at c . 1 . 8 cm sl , a point in growth generally attained between the eighth and tenth week post - release . sexual maturity is attained between fourteen and sixteen weeks post - release , at lengths of 2 . 5 cm sl and 2 . 0 cm sl for males and females respectively .", "within its chosen habitat , p . multicolor / uganda occurs over a wide range of substrata , ranging from sand and clay through mud with a very high content of organic matter . while emergent and floating aquatic plants are abundant in such habitats , submerged plants are not . blooms of green and blue - green algae are not uncommon , and the stems and leaves of aquatic plants generally support a rich diatom flora . the ugandan mouthbrooder forages for its food over the bottom and among the leaves and stems of aquatic plants . aquatic insect larvae appear to be staple items , but quantities of diatoms are also eaten . this may explain the intense golden yellow coloration seen in freshly imported specimens of p . multicolor / uganda . such coloration certainly seems to be strongly influenced by diet , for specimens i captured for photographic purposes during a visit to jinja , uganda in the spring of 1971 faded markedly within 24 hours of being placed in a holding tank .", "like all their congeners , both populations of this species are tolerant of a wide range of water conditions . in nature , they typically occur in moderately hard , slightly alkaline water , but as long as he avoids extremes of either ph or hardness , the aquarist need not concern himself greatly about these aspects of water chemistry . stress induced by build - up of nitrogen cycle by - products is a more serious problem . the ugandan mouthbrooder is particularly sensitive to such pollution and must have good tank maintenance and a program of regular partial water changes if it is to prosper in captivity . both forms devour with gusto any of the usually available live and prepared foods . the golden yellow and red coloration of these cichlids is very sensitive to dietary influences . to maintain it at its fullest , the prudent aquarist will offer his specimens a diet rich in the appropriate precursor substances . the easiest way to get such supplements into these distinctly carnivorous little cichlids is to use one of the commercially available color enhancing foods .", "html public \" -

fed and happy in the community tank , they will spawn regularly among the other fish . for spawning , the males only require an area of open gravel or sand about 3 inches in diameter . here , they will excavate a shallow , round pit and court the females . the male will put on his brightest colors and swim up to the females , doing a little dance and trying to entice them back to his pit . he flicks his fins and arches his back while shivering and shaking . if the dance impresses the female and she follows him back to his pit , he begins circling the pit , shaking and dragging his bright red anal fin on the bottom .", "a receptive female will then enter the dance in the pit . she will begin to follow in the circling behavior , nipping at the male\u2019s side near his bright red anal fin . after a few minutes , she begins laying a few eggs , picking them up in her mouth and biting at the red anal fin of the male . he releases his milt and fertilizes the eggs in her mouth . this process is repeated until the female lays about 80 to 100 eggs . the female then moves off to quietly begin her brooding period as described above . the male will head off , looking for other females . no pair bond is formed .", "if possible , gently remove the female to her own 5 -

water fishes from natal and zululand in south africa . in this paper , he described a new genus of wrasse , pseudocrenilabrus , based upon a single specimen . here matters rested until 1963 , when dr . james boehlke of the philadelphia academy of science informed dr . ethelwyn trewavas , then on a visit to the united states , that he believed the holotype of this wrasse to be a cichlid . his suspicions were confirmed when trewavas examined the entity in question and found it to be a specimen of the fish originally described by the german ichthyologist weber in 1897 as chromis philander and widely referred to in the subsequent literature as haplochromis philander . in charity let us assume that in this instance fowler was aided in his confusion of the families cichlidae and labridae by a faulty locality label !", "the genus comprises three nominal species , though its actual taxonomic situation is considerably more complex than this would , on the surface , suggest . one species , pseudocrenilabrus philander , comprises a complex of distinctive , geographically separate populations , all enjoying some degree of reproductive isolation . another , p . multicolor , consists of two highly distinctive , quite possibly specifically distinct populations . whether such populations are best treated as species , subspecies or simply left without formal taxonomic designation is a question only further research can satisfactorily resolve . but , as several of them have been introduced as aquarium fish , aquarists must confront a highly plastic and potentially confusing situation . killifish fanciers have learned to live with comparable situations as a matter of course and i think that cichlid enthusiasts working with pseudocrenilabrus would do well to borrow a few points of procedure from them .", "though these are small cichlids , rarely exceeding 10 . 0 cm sl in nature , sexually active males display a level of aggressiveness quite out of proportion to their size . a male 4 . 0 cm sl is easily capable of totally monopolizing an area 60 cm square , to the extreme discomfiture of any fish daring to venture into the lower half of the water column . in practical terms , this translates into one male / 80 1 aquarium at any stocking density under a single fish / liter of tank volume . at lower densities , a linear dominance hierarchy will emerge among males , with the dominant fish eventually liquidating those beneath him in the peck order . yet this belligerence cannot entirely cancel out the fact that these fish , while falling outside of my definition of a dwarf cichlid on behavioral grounds ( loiselle , 1979 , 1980 ) , do fall into the dwarf category with regard to size . taken with the apparent inability of males to exercise any discernible degree of discretion in their choice of targets , this sharply limits the selection of possible tank - mates for any pseudocrenilabrus species .", "many aquarists make the error of trying to keep pseudocrenilabrus in the company of haplochromis species or even of mbuna . the consequences are invariably disastrous . both sexes of the smaller pseudocrenilabrus tend to be out - competed at feeding , while females come in for a great deal of general harassment at all times . efforts by males to hold a territory bring them into conflict with haplochromis males that are both absolutely larger and whose jaws are disproportionately bigger in the bargain . those males pseudocrenilabrus that are not seriously injured in outright conflicts lose condition in the face of continued aggression by their larger relatives , eventually to fall prey to stress induced systematic bacterial infections . given that their habitat preferences rarely bring them into association with sympatrically occurring haplochromis species in nature , such an outcome is not surprising . yet , when the sorry progress has run its full course , the culpable aquarist typically blames the pseudocrenilabrus for lack of hardiness , condemns the genus to perdition , and resolves to steer clear of its species in the future . in reality , his unfortunate experiences are the fault of his own ignorance of the behavioral limitations of these cichlids and could have been easily prevented .", "the spawning behavior of pseudocrenilabrus multicolor from egypt . the male actively displays to passing females from a previously excavated pit ( 1 ) . a ripe female eventually responds to his displays by following him into its confines ( 2 ) . the pair then begins a period of reciprocal circling ( 3 - 5 ) , which is accompanied by mutual vent nudging . the gentle butting of the female ' s vent by the male ( 6 ) seems to trigger oviposition . the female picks up the eggs immediately ( 7 ) , then turns to follow the male ( 8 & 9 ) . as she does so , she nudges his vent ( 10 ) . fertilization appears to occur at this point . note that her mouth is oriented towards the male ' s vent , not towards the orange - red spot on the tip of his anal fin ( 11 ) . this sequence is repeated ( 12 - 15 ) until the bulging jaw of the female ( 16 ) indicates that she is spent .", "the olive to beige , somewhat pyriform ova measure c . 2 . 5 mm along with their major axis . they can number from 6 to over 100 , depending upon the size and condition of the female . the developmental interval for these fish is 10 days at 29\u00b0 c . ovigerous females are exemplary mothers and will carry to full term even in a community situation . however , if the objective is to save any fry , the hobbyist should move such females into a separate nursery tank , set up in the manner indicated for ovigerous female haplochromis ( loiselle , 1978 ) . the fry measure 6 . 5 mm - 7 . 5 mm sl upon release . while the female will continue to protect her offspring for several days following their initial release , such efforts are invariably futile in a community setting and superfluous in the privacy of a nursery tank ."]}

lived .", "only a few species of elasmobranchs have been observed during courtship and mating . however , stingarees have a system that involves internal fertilization , so it can logically be inferred that mating communication between male and female must happen to an extent that allows the male to insert at least one of his two claspers ( male reproductive organs that are modifications of the pelvic fins ) into the female\u2019s cloaca to deposit sperm . elasmobranch fishes have relatively complex endocrine ( hormonal ) systems ; based on knowledge of other vertebrates with similar systems , it is likely that females signal to males through chemical or behavioral cues to indicate when their hormonal state is appropriate for mating . in", "researchers found that gland secretions seal the open groove on males\u2019 claspers into a closed tube that protects semen from being diluted before it passes into the female . these secretions coagulate on contact with sea water , help transport sperm into the female , and provide lubrication for clasper insertion .", "pregnancy in at least some urolophids lasts about three months , generally spanning some period in the spring , summer , and fall . it may take up to two years , however , for the egg follicle to accumulate enough yolk for ovulation ( release of an egg to be fertilized ) as in the case of", ". this means that at least some stingarees may have litters only once every two years , but it is likely that other groups within the family give birth on a yearly cycle . within any given group of rays , individuals appear to go through mating , gestation , and parturition ( birth ) at the same time as all the other females in the group . stingarees usually bear between two and four young at a time , after nourishing the embryos with milky fluid ( histotroph ) secreted by the uterus ( see development for a description of this system , called aplacental uterine viviparity ) . in some groups the epithelium , or wall , of the uterus is modified to form trophonemata , elongated villi that extend into the uterine cavity to provide greater surface area for respiratory exchange and histotroph excretion . this advanced system of nourishing young inside the uterus can produce offspring that are relatively large at birth ( see development ) . according to one investigator , a young ray is rolled up like a cigar during birth , which , along with the lubricating histotroph , facilitates the birth of such proportionally large young . the young ray then unrolls and swims away . likewise , sting - bearing young are able to pass out of the mother\u2019s body without stinging her because their stings are encased in a pliable sheath that sloughs off after birth .", "no reported evidence of post -

refer to synonymy ) ( fig . 11 ) . an early illustration of a disc with branching processes that has caused some workers to compare it to hiemalora is \u201cmedusina filamentus\u201d from the rawnsley quartzite ( sprigg , 1949 , p . 90 , pi . 30 , fig . 1 , text - fig . 7d ) . sprigg interpreted the form as a medusoid . the illustration of the holotype shows a partial narrow concentric rim surrounding the central disc and the field with the radial processes , at a distance of about 3vi times the radius of the central disc . this is unlike hiemalora . the specimen was subsequently ascribed to pseudorhizostomites sprigg , 1949 , to which it is connected by transitional forms , according to glaessner and wade ( 1966 , p . 605 ) .", "preservation of local detail in the frond of one specimen , more clearly seen in the latex mold than the specimen in outcrop , shows several oblique divisions spaced equally about 4 mm apart ( fig . 12 . 3 ) . the pattern is reminiscent of secondary branches in charnia and charniodiscus . the shape of the preserved frond portion of this specimen also resembles a stalked specimen of bradgatia from the trepassey formation , but which is without a clearly recognizable hiemalora - like base ( see fig . 19 . 4 under bradgatia ) .", "the assemblage includes aspidella , blackbrookia , bradgatia , charnia , charniodiscus , fractofusus , hiemalora , and ivesheadia . these occur throughout the succession , with aspidella being the most common genus , followed by charnia and charniodiscus . four new taxa are described , with candelabra - like fossils with a hiemalora - like base referred to primocandelabrum hiemaloranum n . gen . and sp . , bush - like fossils to parviscopa bonavistensis n . gen . and sp . , ladder - like fossils to hadryniscala avalonica n . gen . and sp . , and string - like fossils with basal disc to hadrynichorde catalinensis n . gen . and sp . the remains also include dubiofossils . the stratigraphic ranges of some taxa on the bonavista peninsula are longer than previously reported from the avalon peninsula , with fractofusus spindles present in the trepassey formation , bradgatia , charnia , charniodiscus , and ivesheadia reaching as high as the fermeuse formation , and aspidella extending into the middle of the renews head formation . the spindles in the trepassey formation are comparable to those found mainly in the stratigraphically older briscal formation on the avalon peninsula .", "figure 12 - outcrop views of primocandelabrum hiemaloranum n . gen . and sp .

newfoundland . they occur in deepwater sediments and are preserved as epireliefs , forming census populations underneath volcanic ash layers throughout a more than 1 km thick turbiditic sequence . the exposed fossiliferous units comprise the mistaken point , trepassey , fermeuse , and renews head formations . the remains are tectonically deformed , with long axes of elliptical discs aligned parallel to cleavage strike ; shortening of originally circular bedding surface features is on the order of 30 - 50 % ( averaging ~ 35 % ) .", "the distinctive and problematic ediacaran fossils of soft - bodied organisms constitute a prominent marker in the history of the proterozoic biosphere , and a substantial biologic enigma as well . there is no unanimity as to their affinities . early interpretations placed forms like those found in newfoundland in the kingdom animalia , principally in the phylum cnidaria ( e . g . , glaessner , 1959 , 1984 ; anderson , 1978 ; fedonkin , 1981 ) , others have presented different interpretations . included among these are attributions to a separate extinct kingdom , vendozoa ( seilacher , 1989 ; later vendobionta , seilacher , 1992 ) , xenophyophorean protists ( zhuravlev , 1993 , seilacher et al . , 2003 ) , lichens ( retallack , 1994 ) , photosynthetic \u201cmetacellular\u201d organisms ( mcmenamin , 1998 ) , colonies of prokaryota ( steiner and reitner , 2001 ) , and fungus - like organisms ( peterson et al . , 2003 ) . ediacaran fossils are now thought to be mostly metazoans . for a comprehensive recent review , see narbonne ( 2005 ) .", "the assemblages in the different areas are characterized by disparate sedimentary environments and different preservation styles , as well as distinctive biotic compositions ( e . g . , narbonne , 1998 ; waggoner , 1999 ; grazhdankin , 2004 ) . ediacaran megafossils in northwestern canada , australia , and eastern europe occur typically as hyporeliefs in shallow water siliciclastics , whereas those in newfoundland , england , and finnmark are preserved as epireliefs in deepwater sediments , and those in namibia commonly are transported entities preserved as endoreliefs in storm - generated sandstone . some forms such as discs are cosmopolitan , whereas others of more complex morphology have more restricted distribution . for analyses of ediacaran assemblages , see the reviews by waggoner ( 1999 , 2003 ) and grazhdankin ( 2004 ) . the forms here described from the bonavista peninsula conform to what is known from the avalon peninsula - preserved on upper bedding surfaces in deep water turbiditic and shallowing - upward pro - deltaic sediments , below ashfall deposits .", "although the avalon assemblage has received a great deal of study in recent years ( gehling et al . , 2000 , narbonne et al . , 2001 , clapham and narbonne , 2002 ; clapham et al . , 2003 , 2004 ; narbonne and gehling , 2003 ; wood et al . , 2003 ; narbonne , 2004 , 2005 ; laflamme et al . , 2004 ; ichaso et al . , 2007 ; gehling and narbonne , 2007 ; laflamme et al . , 2007 ) , much sustained effort will be required to resolve major questions concerning the biological affinities of the elements of this biota . studies by narbonne and his associates are continuing to contribute substantially in this regard . narbonne et al . ( 2001 , p . 28 et seq . ) provide a useful summary of the history of research on the ediacaran biota in newfoundland .", "the objectives of the present study are the description and illustration of new material from the bonavista peninsula , now the third area in newfoundland known to contain this remarkable assemblage ( o\u2019brien and king , 2004a , 2004b , 2005 ) , and , secondly , to relate these occurrences and their context to those on the avalon peninsula to the south . some of the new localities have yielded exceptionally well preserved specimens of several taxa that improve our knowledge on the distribution , environmental setting , morphology , taphonomy , and taxonomic affiliation of specific ediacaran taxa . one of the significant aspects of the ~ 570 ma avalon assemblage is that no unequivocal trace fossils have yet been recognized . although here interpreted as body fossils , two of the new taxa in the bonavista area ( parviscopa n . gen . and hadrynichorde n . gen . ) have some aspects in common with certain trace fossils normally found in rocks younger by 30 million years ; these are suitable candidates for further studies to confirm their affinities .", "the bonavista peninsula of newfoundland lies within the appalachian avalon zone , a complex and well - preserved neoproterozoic to early paleozoic terrene that records the development of segments of a much larger precambian orogenic system accreted to the appalachians during paleozoic orogenesis ( cf . o\u2019brien et al . , 1996 ) . integral parts of this belt are ediacaran sedimentary rocks , which are spectacularly preserved along the deeply embayed coast of southeastern newfoundland", "the murphy\u2019s cove member is dominated by medium - bedded , gray and green sandstones and gray , green , and red mudstones . variegated structureless and laminated mudstones are present at the top of the member and may correlate with the hibbs cove member , uppermost mistaken point formation , at its type locality on the avalon peninsula ( king , 1990 ) . fine - grained , white , gray to light brown tuff forms thin beds and laminae throughout the member and commonly preserve ediacaran fossils underneath .", "conception group strata in the core of the catalina dome pass conformably into fossiliferous marine mudrocks and interbedded sandstones of the st . john\u2019s group ( williams and king , 1979 ) , which consists of , in ascending stratigraphic order , the trepassey , fermeuse , and renews head formations . these sediments formed initially in a deep basinal slope environment , which , in response to a combination of sea - level changes and to seaward advances of a large prograding delta , shallowed over time and in two major cycles ( king , 1980 , 1990 ; o\u2019brien and king , 2005 ) .", "figure 1 - geologic map of catalina area , with fossil localities ( after o\u2019brien and king , 2005 ) . locality 32 is outside map area , near maberly , 7 km nne of northeast corner of area , at 48 . 608 [ degrees ] n 53 . 009 [ degrees ] w . shg = signal hill group .", "large - scale slumps and disrupted beds are present throughout the trepassey formation , representing periodic rapid burial of the habitat that sustained the organisms in this deep - marine setting . the slumps are of the same composition as their respective members and indicate the presence of a slope on which original sediment deposits became unstable , either because of sediment load or seismic shock ; the mass movement was probably slight as the slumped material is near slump scars from which they were derived . the increasing influx up - section of laminated , fine - to medium - grained sand indicates high - energy downslope processes and may reflect shoaling of the basin or sea - level changes .", "fermeuse formation . - the black - shale - dominated fermeuse formation lies in sharp and conformable stratigraphic contact above the trepassey formation . the succession studied to date consists primarily of three principal , interbedded lithofacies . following the terminology of o\u2019brien et al . ( 2006 ) , the prominent facies ( a - f ) , seen in the lowermost part of the formation , is dark gray to black shale and mudstone with laminae , and thin to medium interbeds of gray siltstone , fine grained , brown - weathering gray sandstone , and minor tuff . impoverished current ripples and cross - lamination are locally present but are usually indistinct ; rhythmically alternating sand - mud graded units are common . a second , characteristically remobilized facies ( b - f ) consists of slumped folds of sandstone resedimented in a mud matrix that occur with debris flows . the latter consist of a mixture of sand , mud , and coarse angular to rounded cobble - size fragments of siltstone and sandstone . a third facies ( c - f ) , developed in the upper part of the succession , includes black shales with rare or widely spaced laminae or thin beds of silty sandstone . in general , the proportion of sand increases upwards through the formation . tuff beds are most common in the lower 300 m of the section and are associated with ediacaran fossils .", "the remobilized facies ( b - f ) occurs throughout several hundred meters of stratigraphic section and contains repetitive and spectacularly preserved tabular units of synsedimentary folds and disrupted beds of sandstone , each unit commonly several meters thick , interbedded with black shale and silty sandstone . the slumped units are locally capped by sand - rich sedimentary breccias overlain by shale . thin beds of ash within the shales within facies a - f and b - f preserve a variety of ediacaran fossils at several stratigraphic levels .", "the slumped and disrupted units are attributed to gravitational sliding of poorly consolidated beds of sand and mud on a sloping paleosurface during normal pelagic sedimentation . huge masses of mixed sand , mud , and coarse clastic debris were transported as debris and other mass flows into deeper parts of a submarine slope and basin . the presence of sharp bedding planes directly above truncated folds of sandstone and coarse breccias at the top of the disrupted unit indicate periods of erosion by intense bottom currents .", "fossil assemblage and localities . - in a 1978 reconnaissance mapping and paleontological investigation of eastern bonavista peninsula , one of the authors ( king ) noted that 1 ) the siliceous rocks of goodland point , catalina , resembled the mistaken point formation , 2 ) the mudstones of catalina were comparable with the trepassey formation , and 3 ) the shale sequence of melrose matched the fermeuse formation . at that time , only the shales were found to be fossiliferous , yielding very poorly preserved sphaeromorph acritarchs and nonseptate filamentous microfossils near port union ( hofmann et al . , 1979 ) . as a result of more recent work , ediacaran fossils were discovered in this area ( o\u2019brien and king , 2004a ) .", "the main occurrence of the ediacaran biota on the bonavista peninsula is limited to the catalina dome ( fig . 1 ) . discoidal fossils have also been observed at english harbour , 20 km south of catalina , and at maberly , 10 km to the north . the exposed units belong to the conception and st . john\u2019s groups , with fossiliferous horizons in the mistaken point , trepassey , fermeuse , and renews head formations .", "the general geographic and stratigraphic distributions of the fossiliferous localities were given by o\u2019brien and king ( 2004a ) , as was a summary of their morphologic diversity . the same authors have since provided a more detailed inventory of their occurrence ( o\u2019brien and king , 2005 ) , but the present paper is the first to more fully describe and illustrate the ediacaran fossils on the bonavista peninsula . figure 2 presents a graphic summary of the more than a dozen constituent elements of this assemblage .", "the fossils are best observed on dip slopes of shoreline outcrops . the discovery site , also the one showing the greatest diversity of fossils in the new assemblage , is located in the murphy\u2019s cove member of the mistaken point formation ( locality 5 ) , and is illustrated in figure 3 . the fossils are protected under provincial legislation , but remain exposed to the elements ( wave and ice action , cliff collapse , algal and bacterial growth , human activity ) .", "like the soft - bodied ediacaran fossils on the avalon peninsula , the impressions of the organisms are confined to turbiditic siliciclastics and are typically preserved on upper bedding surfaces of interturbidite mudstones , underneath thin water - laid tuffs ( narbonne et al . , 2001 , 2005 ) .", "figure 2 - main components of ediacaran biota on the bonavista peninsula . basal portion of large charnia ford , 1958 is conjectural .", "all fossils show the effect of early paleozoic tectonic deformation and pervasive cleavage development related to the formation of the appalachian orogenic belt . originally circular features such as the aspidella organism were deformed into nne trending ellipses , in effect constituting built - in strain gauges that provide a quantitative measure of the amount of tectonic shortening , which is on the order of ~ 35 % on average in the study area , but can attain 50 % or slightly more locally . this allows for the retrodeformation of not only their images , but also those of associated frondose , bush - like , and other fossils , to reconstruct their morphologies and felling directions at the time of burial ( wood et al . , 2003 , fig . 5 ) . most of the illustrations in the plates of the present paper are retrodeformed images of the fossils .", "the fossils were studied in situ during the summers of 2004 to 2006 , and photographed with digital cameras . selected important specimens were molded with low viscosity ( ~ 7000 cps ) black latex which then served to make casts using a dental stone compound , both of which aided the study in the laboratory . very few actual samples were collected to respect legislation regarding the preservation of the fossil sites . specimens and casts are deposited at the newfoundland museum ( nfm ) in st . john\u2019s , bearing consecutive numbers from nfm f - 457 to nfm f - 656 . catalogue numbers of illustrated material are cited in the captions of the respective figures .", "the fossiliferous exposures extend stratigraphically from near the base of the mistaken point formation in the conception group to the middle of the renews head formation in the st . john\u2019s group ( fig . 4 ) , and thus the range is limited by lack of strata in the lower part of the stratigraphic section as compared to the much more completely exposed sequence on the avalon peninsula , where the section also includes the fossiliferous briscal and drook formations below the mistaken point formation . on the other hand , many of the taxa reach stratigraphic levels appreciably higher on the bonavista peninsula than on the avalon ( fig . 5 ) .", "the frondose forms charnia and chamiodiscus show strong preferred alignment on individual bedding planes , which is attributed to downcurrent felling by bottom currents ( wood et al . , 2003 ) . an overall bimodal pattern emerges , with a main mode in a nne direction , and an opposing secondary mode ( fig . 6 ) ; the mean vector show a slight clockwise rotation in ascending the stratigraphic section . the preferred orientation and tripartite organization of basal holdfast disc , stem , and frond indicate that the organisms were erect sessile benthos anchored on the mud , rather than endobenthic ( seilacher , 1992 ) .", "various schemes have been devised to accommodate ediacaran fossils in a systematic way , but the goal of finding a suitable scheme acceptable to all who work with such remains is still elusive . the most comprehensive and elaborate attempt has been by fedonkin ( in sokolov and ivanovskiy , 1985 , and sokolov and iwanowski , 1990 ) , who arranged the taxa under two main headings , radialia and bilateria , with further groupings based on the underlying symmetry of the taxa . radialia encompass various classes of discoidal coelenterates , whereas the bilateria comprise various phyla of worm - and arthropod - like fossils , as well as the extinct phylum petalonamae of frondose forms , some of which , strictly speaking , are not bilateral ( e . g . , pteridinium giirich , 1933 ) . forms such as bradgatia , ivesheadia , fractofusus , and others do not readily fit into this scheme . another attempt to classify the ediacaran biota is that presented in runnegar and fedonkin ( 1992 , p . 373 ) .", "inasmuch as the systematic position and phylogeny of many of the forms still need to be worked out ( e . g . , see runnegar , 1995 for arguments generally still current ) , we here use an informal order of presentation that groups the genus - level taxa based on the following broad informal geometric categories and their postulated affinities ( table 1 ) ; one kind of dubiofossil is also described . the scheme has its drawbacks . for instance , the discoid forms have traditionally been classified as cnidarians . however , they may be holdfasts of fronds that were not preserved , and they thus could or should be classed as petalonamae .", "figure 3 -

exposed beneath the tail , and broods range from about 80 - 150 eggs ( breder and rosen 1966 ) . many of the species also feed by cleaning small parasites from other fish species . the genus is known for having a very brief or even non -

35 mm standard length ( dawson 1981 ) . male doryrhamphus brood eggs semi - exposed under the trunk , and sometimes have a thin skin covering over the sides of the brood ( kuiter 2000 ) . brood size for doryrhamphus pipefishes varies from 80 - 150 eggs , depending on age or species ( kuiter 2000 ) . as tiny juveniles can be found on reefs , it seems that the pelagic stage is either short or absent ( kuiter 2000 ) . kuiter ( 2000 ) noted that it was difficult to determine the sex for most doryrhamphinae species , especially when the male incubated a brood , but adults usually occur in pairs with one male and one female .", "though the majority of pipefish that appear in our hobby are from the subfamily doryrhamphinae , with doryrhamphus and dunkerocampus accounting for the largest percentage of the subfamily within the hobby , a large percentage does show up from syngnathinae , or the subfamily commonly called pipefish . for the most part , this is a highly unorganized subfamily that is likely to be split into their separate taxon once additional research is put forth . for now , 42 genera are recognized , though only corythoichthys is likely to be found at your local fish store with any regularity .", "justification : doryrhamphus janssi is a marine coastal pipefish species that inhabits coral reefs and caves to depths of 35 m throughout much of the indo - west pacific . the species may be declining as a result of coral reef habitat degradation , and unknown numbers are taken for use in the aquarium trade and possibly for traditional medicines . further research on how these threats are affecting wild populations . they are however able to utilize other habitat types such as tidal pools , and coral declines are not occurring at high rates across the range . therefore this species is listed as least concern .", "there are no species - specific conservation measures in place for doryrhamphus janssi , however its distribution may coincide with a number of marine protected areas , including australia ' s great barrier reef marine park . it is listed along with all other syngnathids as a protected species under australia ' s environment protection and biodiversity conservation act ( 1998 ) . it is not listed in any international legislation or trade regulations . further research is needed in order to determine how the threats listed above are affecting population size and trends in abundance . this species would likely benefit from international measures to mitigate anthropogenic climate change .", "doryrhamphus janssi is threatened by coral reef habitat loss due to coastal development and pollution , destructive fishing practices such as dynamite fishing and trawling , and the effects of climate change including ocean acidification and rising sea surface temperatures ( bruno and selig 2007 , carpenter et al . 2008 , de ' ath et al . 2012 , normile 2016 ) . the species is also present in the aquarium trade , but levels of offtake from the wild are unknown , as is their status as a captive - bred species . it may also be caught as bycatch in trawl fisheries and subsequently traded for use in traditional medicines ( vincent et al . 2011 ) . further research is needed in order to determine how these threats are affecting wild populations of the species .", "the care of corythoichthys is similar to that of any other pipefish . the main points of consideration would be the temperature that the particular species originated from , as well as the type of bottom cover it preferred . all corythoichthys are found along the substrate , unlike doryrhamphus and dunkerocampus species . some members prefer muck bottoms , while others prefer rock rubble and algae . the pipefish that prefer to swim along the substrate have a differently designed brood pouch than do their free - swimming cousins . this brood pouch is designed to enclose the eggs , and in these enclosed pouches the embryos are attached to highly vascularized placenta - like tissue , which seals the pouch folds from inside during incubation ( watanabe et al , 1999 ) . it would seem , therefore , that the embryos of the substrate dwelling pipefish are considerably more protected than those of the free - swimming pipefish . twenty - three species are currently described members of corythoichthys , with many more un - described members awaiting entrance .", "lastly , tank design is significant . this aspect isn ' t nearly as important as the three previously discussed requirements , but nonetheless , these minimal requirements should not be considered voluntary . an active , healthy sandbed should be required . if possible , sand from several different sources should be acquired to ensure as much diversity as possible . this sandbed will supply a large percentage of the naturally occurring foods for the pipefish . likewise , good quantities of porous live rock are desirable . as mentioned above , various colonies of algae are also prime locations of microfaunal colonization , and thus should be considered mandatory in the pipefish aquarium . caves and overhangs are a wise idea , both as a comfort factor for your pipefish , and for the viewing pleasure of the hobbyists . in most cases , you can design your rockwork to feature overhangs in prime locations for your viewing , and your doryrhamphus sp . will immediately take to this overhang . without these overhangs , the pipefish is likely to take up residence somewhere buried behind the rockwork , much to the disappointment of all intending on viewing these fish .", "doryrhamphus species are free -

' although the syngnathidae is commonly called the pipefish family , the most notable fish of this family are in the subfamily hippocampinae , the seahorses . in total , the pipefish family contains four subfamilies , 55 genera , and over 320 species ( kuiter , 2000 ) . at one point the animals in this family were thought to be insects ( rafinesque , 1810 ; michael , 1998 ) , but it is now clearly known these animals are actually fish , even if they are strange - looking fish .", "all syngnathids possess an elongated semi - flexible body with armored , bony plates . they do not possess scales . gill openings are usually reduced to a small round pore , and the head is generally long and tubular . the jaws are fused , resulting in a structure without a hinge to open and close . all fins are soft - rayed , with most species having one dorsal fin , and pectoral fins . some species may have caudal fins , while yet other species are entirely fin - less . ventral and second dorsal fins are absent in all syngnathids . another factoid worth mentioning about syngnathids is their reproductive habit : the males are the ones that become pregnant ! in all species the male carries the eggs during the incubation period . more on this shortly .", "the subfamily doryrhamphinae , known commonly as flagtail pipefish , contains four genera and 22 species . unlike the vast majority of syngnathids , the subfamily doryrhamphinae swims above the substrate , and is never in contact with the substrate ( except for maroubra ) . likewise , it does not maintain a grip on sea grasses , gorgonians , or any other steadfast . this subfamily features an abnormally large ( for syngnathids ) caudal fin . these indo -

reef . depths range from 5m to 30m of depth in subtropical regions , usually associating with overhangs or crevices within the rockwork , which supply a place to retreat . this quick retreat is basically their only means of defense . their bony plates offer little protection against predators that are likely to swallow them whole . rarely will they leave the comfort and protection of their overhangs or crevices .", "another photo of what appears to be corythoichthys sp . 3 . photo courtesy of fredy j . brauchli , switzerland of sub aqua pictures .", "a corythoichthys species . most likely the corythoichthys that kuiter ( 2000 ) refers to as corythoichthys sp . 3 . photo courtesy of linda cline of dancing fish .", "during feeding , the \" where \" seems to be unimportant for them , as pipefish will feed from the substrate , or they will also feed on passing - by foods in the water column . the \" when \" and \" how often , \" however , is extremely important . to begin with , they are diurnal . therefore , they will only eat during the day . second , due to the lack of a stomach , and a largely inefficient intestine , pipefish will continue to search for food the entire day .", "adults are always located in pairs , though these pairs are not necessarily maintained monogamous . the pair will greet each other every morning , just minutes prior to sunrise . this greeting consists of the beginning stages of the mating ritual ( gronell , 1984 ) . it is not known what purpose this morning greeting serves , but it has been speculated that it could increase spawning synchrony between the mates , keep the pair bound during non - reproductive periods , or even alert the pair to a missing mate ( michael , 1998 ) .", "a pair of corythoichthys species , possibly c . haematopterus . photo courtesy of linda cline of dancing fish .", "reproduction of pipefish is a long process , usually consisting of over two hours of a predictable mating ritual ( see below ) . once near completion , the female will deposit her eggs into the male ' s pouch . the number of eggs can vary from 30 - 1000 depending on the species and age of the animals participating ( kuiter , 2000 ) , though most species have egg counts numbering closer to 100 - 200 . the female will transfer all of the eggs in 4 - 7 seconds ( michael , 1998 ) . the fry are well developed at hatching , but have a short pelagic stage . due to the advanced adaptation to specific localized conditions within the species of the family syngnathidae , it is believed dispersal from the pelagic stage is minimal .", "the male moves his brood pouch below the female\u2019s ovipositor ; she deposits the eggs .", "most likely a color variation of corythoichthys insularis . photo courtesy of fredy j . brauchli , switzerland of sub aqua pictures .", "the unusual brooding habits of syngnathidae have brought upon another interesting sexually characteristic among pipefish : sex - role reversal . because the male syngnathids carry the eggs to full term , the males are now in the driver ' s seat when it comes to choosing which female to breed with . in other words , the females compete for the males . females are forced to compete with other females to garner the attention of the males . to help the male choose the healthiest female pipefish , females have a couple of ways of displaying health . first , the overall size of the female is important . berglund et al ( 1986a ) showed larger females produced more numerous and larger eggs which consequently gives way to larger and healthier fry ( ahnesjo , 1992a , b ) . secondly , females compete with each other by developing higher degrees of contrast in coloration , often called ornamentation . these colors are not directed towards the male , though the males obviously choose females based on the brighter colors . instead , the females flash the color ornaments towards competing females . brighter , more colorful females dance and copulate sooner , copulate more often , and transfer more eggs when compared to the more dully - colored specimens ( gasparini and teixeira , 1999 ) .", "dunckerocampus dactyliophorus can be found in small groups as juveniles . photo courtesy of linda cline of dancing fish .", "although pipefish have been described as monogamous in the past , this is simply not true . by definition , monogamous indicates an eternal life partner . instead , male pipefish form \" pair - bonds \" which usually last at least one season . it is believed they can remember which female they were most impressed with , and thus continually mate with her . however , some pipefish , notably the females , move beyond this \" pair - bond \" ( vincent et al , 1994 ) . females are able to produce an endless supply of hydrated eggs thanks to an ovary unique to pipefish ( begovac and wallace , 1987 ; 1988 ) . therefore , the female is always ready to mate with additional males , should she be able to convince them into mating with her . in addition , females play absolutely no part in the brood care or raising of the fry ( berglund et al , 1986b ) once the eggs have been passed to the male , and thus can easily move from one male to the next .", "most likely corythoichthys insularis , but it could easily be c . nigripectus or c . sp . 12 . the location of the where the photograph was taken would assist in correct identification . photo courtesy of fredy j . brauchli , switzerland of sub aqua pictures .", "provided the needs of the pipefish are met , these fish can live many years within the confines of a home aquarium . lifespan is currently considered 5 to 10 years in an aquarium . the correct water parameters , tank mates , food options , and tank design are all of importance , and can each lead to success or failure .", "starting with water parameters , like any saltwater fish , the hobbyist should strive for tank conditions as near to natural saltwater conditions ( nsw ) as possible . unlike most other fish , the calcium level in the aquarium is important to pipefish . their bony exoskeleton depends on the calcium to maintain its strength . calcium levels from 350ppm and up should be sufficient . remembering most pipefish are subtropical , aquarium temperatures should range from 72 to 80 degrees fahrenheit .", "fellow tank mates are a paramount consideration in a pipefish tank , and often is the difference between success and failure . as a whole , pipefish will not pester any fish . they are , for the most part , oblivious to anything else in the tank that does not fit into their tiny mouths . this general rule can be extended from fish to corals , and mobile invertebrates . however , in that same regard , if it can fit into their mouth , it likely will be consumed . this would include all micro fauna in the aquarium , as well as fish and shrimp fry . despite the low - key personality of pipefish , their tank mates often pester them . all but the smallest , most peaceful fish should be eliminated from a pipefish aquarium . suitable tank mates would include most gobies , dragonettes , other seahorses , and shrimpfish . any fast - swimming fish is likely to agitate the pipefish and keep them in hiding . fish that are aggressive feeders are likely to do the same . any fish that tends to be \" curious \" is likely to annoy the pipefish . this would include wrasses , blennies , and dwarf angels . naturally , predatory fish often times make a quick snack out of pipefish . large predatory mobile invertebrates such as certain starfish species , lobsters , and hermit crabs should be avoided , as well as any potentially strong - venom corals such as any lps corals and anemones .", "will likely pester until death ensues , though some smaller members would be good choices .", "some pipefish are known to \" clean \" members of this family , though it is best to avoid them sharing the same aquarium .", "pipefish , you should research each fish individually before adding it to your aquarium . some of the fish mentioned are better left in the ocean , or for advanced aquarists .", "ensuring the proper size food , and that enough of it reaches the pipefish is another major concern . thankfully , hobbyists are becoming more informed on this important detail , and as such many ill - prepared hobbyists have rightfully avoided this family . food items would include any of the naturally growing microfaunal animals found in our aquariums , including copepods , amphipods , and mysid shrimp . therefore , the hobbyist would be smart to encourage the natural growths of these animals . a dedicated refugium for a pipefish tank is a wise idea , or a large refugium can make a perfect pipefish aquarium itself . pipefish are regularly found searching algae beds for food in the wild . these algae beds encourage the colonization by microfauna , and therefore colonies of macro algae like various caulerpa species are important additions into any pipefish aquarium . when additional foods are required , the best substitutes are live foods . hatching brine shrimp , mosquito larvae , or even daphnia at home can prove to be a successful means of food supplementation , or a welcome treat for pipefish that normally do not need an additional food source . in many situations , pipefish are not willing to accept frozen / thawed prepared foods . in time some individuals may begin to accept prepared adult brine shrimp , mysis shrimp , or any number of commercially available foods . most specimens , however , will never accept prepared foods . be prepared to supply live foods for the lifespan of your pipefish should you consider obtaining these fish . most importantly , due to the lack of stomach and inefficient intestines , the hobbyist must be prepared to provide large amounts of these foods . if you are counting on the bulk of the pipefish diet to be supplied by yourself , consider that three feedings per day is the minimum necessary .", "possibly corythoichthys intestinalis , or even c . flavofasciatus . photo courtesy of fredy j . brauchli , switzerland of sub aqua pictures .", "refugiums with thick algal growths are optimum breeding grounds for two of the pipefish ' s favorite foods . photos by henry schultz .", "spawning and rearing of pipefish in the home aquarium is entirely possible , provided the hobbyist wishes to give the extra effort . once the pair has successfully mated and the males begin to carry the eggs , hatching is merely days to weeks away . the hatch time varies depending on species , as well as water temperature , where a 1 degree celsius temperature change could mean an increase ( or theoretically decrease ) in the brooding period by as much as two days ( michael , 1998 ) . newly hatched pipefish are free - swimming and fully developed ; though a short pelagic stage does occur . color pigmentation usually takes place once the juveniles begin to settle to the substrate . rotifers are required as first - foods for the pipefish fry , and will be required until the fry are large enough to consume newly hatched brine shrimp .", "two large tail spots on the top and bottom , with a single small tail spot at the very end of the caudal fin .", "caudal fin highly variable . usually with large dark spot in the center with minimal orange highlights and white border . usually swims upside -

way go to the line , narrowly losing out to sir percy . rather ironically , wragg had trained the temperamental dam of the winner and both he and his father also trained several of the extended family , the most notable member being teenoso . his 2001 contender , asian heights , well fancied after his last - to - first win in the predominate stakes at goodwood , was cruelly robbed of his chance of running in the classic after splitting a pastern with just over a week to go before the big race . he recovered to win at group 3 / listed level , but injuries continued to blight him and his career somewhat fizzled out .", "wragg won britain ' s most important classic with lester piggott - ridden teenoso in 1983 , shortly after taking over in charge of the newmarket stable previously run by his illustrous father harry , who himself had trained derby winner psidium ( 1961 ) as well as riding the winner three times on felstead ( 1928 ) , blenheim ( 1930 ) and watling street ( 1942 ) .", "1983 . breakfast television started on bbc1 , margaret thatcher won a second general election and seatbelts for drivers became compulsory . in the smaller world of racing , lester piggott landed his ninth and final derby on teenoso , a two - year - old colt called sadler\u2019s wells made a winning debut at leopardstown , and touching wood stood his first season at dalham hall stud for 7 , 000 guineas .", "teenoso began his stud career at the highclere stud but struggled to attract high - quality mares and was not considered a success as a stallion . the best of his progeny was probably young buster , who won seven races including the group three september stakes . other successful flat racers included carlton ( hansa - preis ) and starlet ( team trophy der volksbanken und raiffeisenbanken ) . teenoso was later moved to the shade oak stud in shropshire and then to the pitts farm stud at sherborne in dorset . towards the end of his stud career he was standing at a fee of \u00a31 , 000 and was mainly being used as a national hunt stallion . the best of his steeplechase performers were young spartacus ( mildmay of flete handicap chase , racing post chase ) and horus ( vodafone gold cup ) .", "but it was with a colt , in that very first season in the job , that wragg quickly established himself . during as wet a spring as many could remember , he oversaw enormous improvement from the maiden teenoso , who had shown very little as a juvenile , to land first the lingfield derby trial and then the epsom derby , under lester piggott . hot touch was another smart early performer .", "during his first season after taking over the licence from his father , harry , wragg provided lester piggott with his ninth derby success when saddling teenoso to win the 1983 renewal of the epsom showpiece . twenty - three years later wragg memorably came close to causing one of the biggest upsets in derby history when his 66 - 1 shot dragon dancer was beaten a short head into second place by sir percy .", "red glow was a pig ~ he ended up running ( and getting stuffed in ) selling hurdles in australia of all places . i second all the other stuff especially about teenoso who showed he was a proper derby winner by beating sadler\u2019s wells in the following year\u2019s king george . everyone thought he was a decent plodder who got lucky in a heavy ground derby but he showed them , with a little help from lester .", "as for teenoso , the derby form did not look rock solid initially \u2013 he was beaten in the irish derby on unsuitably fast ground before finishing third in the great voltigeur stakes at york . as a four - year - old , however , he won the valuable grand prix de saint - cloud in france before beating champions of all ages in an epic running of the king george vi and queen elizabeth stakes . it was his last race .", "teenoso , who went off at odds of 9 - 2 in a field of 21 3 - year - olds , finished in 2 : 49 7 / 10 . the time was the slowest for the derby since 1891 , reflecting the soggy conditions . carlingford castle , a 14 - 1 shot , was second , and shearwalk and salmon leap , both owned by the breeder robert sangster , finished third and fourth , respectively , in a close finish .", "piggott was unperturbed when he heard afterwards that carlingford castle and shearwalk , back in third under walter swinburn , had both encountered difficulty negotiating tattenham corner \u2013 he pointed to the emphatic nature of the three - length winning margin . of his nine derby victories , only st paddy ( 1960 ) , empery ( 1976 ) and teenoso had won with so much in hand . not even icons like nijinsky , sir ivor and the minstrel had prevailed with such ease .", "wragg ' s father , harry , was an extremely successful jockey and trainer , and the pair would be renowned for being the first to trial electronic timing equipment on the gallops as well as weighing their horses . his riding career was littered with success , winning all five domestic classics - almost repeating the feat as a trainer with only the oaks eluding him ( trained the runner - up in 1974 , ironically with the future dam of teenoso , furioso ) . harry retired in 1982 , leaving geoff to train teenoso to classic glory at epsom the following june . harry ' s brothers were jockeys arthur jr and sam . geoff had two siblings : brother peter was a successful bloodstock until his death in february 2004 , and sister susan was married to top jockey manny mercer until his untimely and tragic death in september 1959 . geoff ' s retirement in 2008 brought to an end a long and hugely successful association with the wragg name in horse racing .", "geoff wragg ( 9 january 1930 \u2013 15 september 2017 ) was a thoroughbred horse trainer who trained champion horses such as teenoso and pentire . he was the son of former jockey and trainer harry wragg , from whom he took over the licence at abington place , newmarket in 1983 upon his father ' s retirement . wragg retired in 2008 after 25 years of training and sold abington place to sheikh mohammed bin khalifa al maktoum the following spring . he relocated to yorkshire , the birthplace of his late father , harry wragg . he died in 2017 .", "was not , of course , trained in ballydoyle , nor was he owned by the coolmore team . initially under the care of guy harwood , he was one of england\u2019s best three - year - old colts of 1983 , when he finished among the also - rans in teenoso\u2019s derby after having taken the feilden stakes at newmarket . he did even better from john gosden\u2019s barn in california , landing several graded stakes including three grade ones . arguably his best win came when he set a new track record ( of 2 : 24 . 8 ) in the hollywood turf cup , but his defeat of the previous year\u2019s kentucky derby winner ferdinand in the 1987 san luis rey stakes was equally good . he then proved a success at stud , coming up with several good horses at segenhoe stud in new south wales including the frank cleary - trained clan o\u2019sullivan , who was only caught by burst in the shadows of the post in the golden slipper in 1992 .", "as a four - year - old , tolomeo continued to produce good performances but was less consistent and timeform commented that he appeared to have become \" something of a character \" . on his first appearance of the year he finished fourth when carrying top weight in the prince of wales ' s stakes ( then a group two race ) and then finished seventh behind sadler ' s wells in the eclipse stakes . in july he was moved up in distance to one and a half miles for the king george vi and queen elizabeth stakes at ascot . ridden by his regular work -

treatment plant outfall to be 102 , 966 individuals . until recently , no population estimates had been made for the comal river . linam , mayes , and saunders ( 1993 ) conducted a study to determine habitat utilization , the amount of habitat available , and an estimate of population size . fountain darters were found in greatest densities in filamentous algae , and the mean population estimate for the comal river upstream of torrey mill dam was 168 , 078 with 95 % confidence limits of 114 , 178 and 254 , 110 .", "actions that threaten the fountain darter include the destruction of aquatic vegetation in spring lake and the san marcos river , recreational use of the san marcos river , and long - term water depletion from the edwards aquifer . swimmers and divers disturb the algae mats used by the darter for spawning . as with the san marcos gambusia , recovery is considered a remote possibility without the cooperation of all state and local agencies that manage use of the aquifer . linam , mayes , and saunders ( 1993 ) concluded that despite the successful reintroduction effort after the 1950 ' s drought , other factors might preclude it being replicated if the springs should cease to flow again . back then , enduring pools of water sustained some segments of the aquatic community , providing a base for reestablishment . however , the assumption that enduring pools will once again provide a remnant habitat for aquatic plants may no longer be valid . since the introduction of giant rams - horn snails ( marisa cornuarietis ) around 1983 , plants in many areas of landa lake have been denuded of leaves or even grazed to the bottom ( horne , et al . , 1992 ) . these snails thrive in low flow conditions , and during a drought grazing could eliminate the fountain darter habitat . in a repeat of the 1950 ' s drought , the springs are also likely to be dry for a much longer period of time , and there may be changes in water quality that could limit another successful reintroduction .", "the gambusia has not been seen since 1982 and is believed to be already extinct .", "most aquatic biologists feel the san marcos gambusia is very likely already extinct . it ranged in length from 2 . 5 to 4 centimeters ( 1 to 1 . 6 inches ) , had lemon yellow median fins and a diffuse midlateral stripe along the length of its body . the dark body displayed a bluish sheen , and scales tended to be strongly cross - hatched .", "this fish was a livebearer - eggs hatched inside the female ' s body and emerge alive . the female was capable of bearing up to 60 young in a single brood . it fed on insect larvae and other invertebrates in slow - moving waters shaded by overhanging trees or bridges .", "the san marcos gambusia preferred quiet backwaters , adjacent to the main thrust of the river current . its primary habitat requirements appeared to be clean and clear water of a constant temperature . temperatures in the river vary by only a few degrees throughout the year , averaging about 23 degrees c ( 73 f ) . the bottom is muddy but generally unsilted . this species was restricted to a limited portion of the san marcos river springrun a few kilometers below the headsprings . it was always rare , and its continued existence has not been documented .", "the gambusia ' s entire known range was restricted to a 1 - kilometer ( 0 . 6 miles ) section of the san marcos river near the city of san marcos . most specimens were found between the interstate highway 35 crossing and thompson ' s island . this gambusia was always extremely rare as determined by surveys conducted in 1978 and 1979 in the san marcos river . biologists netted more than 20 , 000 gambusia specimens but counted only 18 san marcos gambusia among them . san marcos gambusia were captured alive and an artificial culture established in austin and in dexter , new mexico , in 1979 and 1980 , respectively . both of these cultures were contaminated by gambusia affinis in the early 1980s and the last individual taken from the wild was captured in 1982 . despite considerable efforts to secure this species since then , none have been taken .", "the species ' very restricted known distribution in the river and its absence from the headwaters at spring lake indicate very specific habitat requirements . it was apparently extremely sensitive to any alteration of its habitat . changes in water turbidity caused by runoff from land clearing and construction , an increase in water temperatures caused by lowered water flows , and pumping of groundwater from the edwards aquifer could have easily eliminated the species . even if additional specimens are found , recovery of the san marcos gambusia is considered a remote possibility without the cooperation of all state and local agencies that manage use of the aquifer .", "the slender - bodied san marcos salamander is about 6 centimeters ( 2 . 4 inches ) long and displays a prominent gill fringe behind the head . it is light brown above with a row of pale flecks on either side of the midline and yellowish white below . the large eyes have a dark ring around the lens . limbs are short and slender with four toes on the forefeet and five on the hind feet . at first glance , it is similar to a lizard but lacks scales and claws . the specific name nana is from the greek nanos , meaning \" dwarf . \" this voiceless salamander is also earless . it was listed as endangered on july 14 , 1980 .", "salamanders lay jelly - covered eggs from which tiny fishlike larvae emerge and develop in the manner of tadpoles . the san marcos salamander breeds and lays eggs in standing pools amid thick mats of aquatic vegetation . eggs hatch in about 24 days . this species is carnivorous and feeds on amphipods , midge fly larvae , and aquatic snails . it remains stationary until prey pass closely and then abruptly snaps its head , taking the prey .", "the san marcos salamander is found in shallow alkaline springs carved out of limestone with sand and gravel substrates . pools and streambeds are often punctuated with large limestone boulders . aquatic vegetation is profuse , and the pool surfaces are covered with moss ( amblystegium riparium ) and thick mats of coarse , blue - green algae .", "the species appears to be endemic to the sources and upper portions of the san marcos river .", "the limited range of the san marcos salamander comprises the san marcos springs , spring lake , and a few hundred feet of the san marcos river . the most recent estimates of population size indicate there are probably around 50 , 000 individuals . tupa and davis ( 1976 ) estimated there about 23 , 000 in algal mats , and nelson ( 1993 ) estimated about 25 , 000 in rocks in spring lake and about 5 , 200 below the lake .", "although the population appears relatively stable for the moment , the salamander is threatened by potential degradation or modification of its very limited habitat . increasing residential and agricultural development along with rising demand for water for human and agricultural uses may cause the spring sources become dry intermittently . the key to preserving the san marcos salamander is controlling the amount of water pumped out of the edwards aquifer .", "a canoer glides past submerged streamers of texas wild rice in the san marcos river .", "at left , tubers co - exist with wild rice in sewell park , just below aquarena springs . at right , drooping stalks above the surface produce grain - like seeds .", "texas wildrice is an aquatic grass with thin , flat , elongated leaves that are typically immersed and long - streaming in river currents . leaves often grow as long as 1 . 5 meters ( 57 inches ) . flower stalks , when present , extend above the surface of the water , sometimes to a height of 1 meter ( 40 inches ) , and produce drooping heads of profuse grain - like seeds . the plant flowers and sets seed at irregular intervals from april to november . seeding plants have become increasingly rare in the wild . it was listed as federally endangered on april 26 , 1978 and state endangered on april 29 , 1983 . it was the first texas plant to be placed on the

gravel shallows near the middle of the river . this plant is adapted to fast - flowing water of high quality and constant year - round temperatures as provided by adequate spring flows . silting , disturbance of the bottom , or stagnant water will kill off plants .", "this wildrice was once abundant in the san marcos river , in contiguous irrigation ditches with constant flows , and in spring lake at the river ' s headwaters . in the 1930 ' s it was so abundant that a local irrigation company considered it a difficult task to keep plants from clogging its ditches .", "texas wildrice is currently distributed along the upper four miles of the river in and near the city of san marcos . in august of 2011 , the texas parks and wildlife department proposed designating this stretch of the river a state scientific area , which is allowable under state law for the purposes of education , research , and preservation of plant and animal life .", "the major reason for decline of the san marcos river habitat has been increased pumping and diversion of edwards aquifer groundwater . decreased spring outflow lowers the water level of the river and exposes the shallows where texas wildrice typically would grow . river dredging and damming , riverside construction , and bottomland cultivation have destroyed plants , altered stream flows and temperature , or increased siltation . in the past , intensive harvesting of the seed crop inhibited successful reproduction . because most of the remaining population is in the urban area of san marcos , botanists have suggested that transplanting wildrice to some other location is the species only hope of survival . however , the fish and wildlife service stresses that every effort must be made to preserve the species in its native habitat . efforts to grow texas wildrice in cultivation and to transplant it have met with limited success . in the 1970 ' s , botanists attempted to establish a new population in salado creek with cultivated plants , but recreational activities continually disturbed transplanted clones . from 1976 to 1982 , nursery grown plants were transplanted to various sites in central texas . no new populations resulted . the fish and wildlife service recovery plan recommends that a public education program be established , aimed at minimizing recreational disturbance of wildrice in the san marcos river . ultimately , long term protection will require a management program to balance the water needs of the human population with the requirements of a healthy san marcos river ecosystem .",

aquatic crustacean in the family crangonyctidae . like all members of the exclusively subterranean genus stygobromus , this species is eyeless and unpigmented . the fish and wildlife service has used

specimens of peck ' s cave amphipod have been collected since its description . most specimens were netted from crevices in rock and gravel near the three largest orifices of comal springs on the west side of landa park in comal county", ". despite extensive collecting efforts , no specimens have been found in other areas of the edwards aquifer , indicating that its primary habitat is a zone of permanent darkness in the underground aquifer feeding the springs . above ground , individuals are easy prey for predators , but they usually take shelter in the rock and gravel crevices and may succeed in reentering the spring orifice . in 1993 barr got most specimens in drift nets at spring orifices and found them less often as she moved downstream , supporting the notion they may be easy prey and do not likely survive for long outside the aquifer .", "nothing is known about whether this species may have historically ranged in other springs that are now dry almost all the time , such as san pedro springs and san antonio springs . the first recorded specimen was collected by peck at comal springs in june 1964 . reddell collected a second specimen at the same place in may 1965 . in

"conservation and management of the peck ' s cave amphipod , comal springs riffle beetle , and comal springs dryopid beetle are likely to involve protection and conservation of the edwards aquifer and springflow at comal , hueco , san marcos , and fern bank springs . these species ' very limited habitat is likely to be lost through drying or decreased volume of springflow during minor or severe drought . it is likely the effect of natural droughts in south central texas will increase in severity because of the large increase in human groundwater withdrawals . many possible effects of reduced springflow exist . these include changes in the chemical composition of the water in the aquifer and at the springs , a decrease in current velocity and corresponding increase in siltation , and an increase in temperature and temperature fluctuations in the aquatic habitat ( mckinney & watkins , 1993 ) .", "another threat to the habitat of these species is the potential for groundwater contamination . pollutants of concern include those associated with human sewage , leaking underground storage tanks , animal / feedlot waste , agricultural chemicals ( especially insecticides , herbicides , and fertilizers ) and urban runoff ( including pesticides , fertilizers , and detergents ) .", "pipeline , highway , and railway transportation of hydrocarbons and other potentially harmful materials in the edwards aquifer recharge zone and its watershed , with the attendant possibility of accidents , present a particular risk to water quality in comal and san marcos springs . comal and san marcos springs are both located in urbanized areas . hueco springs is located alongside river road , which is heavily traveled for recreation on the guadalupe river , and may be susceptible to road runoff and spills related to traffic . fern bank springs is in a relatively remote , rural location and its principal vulnerability is probably to contaminants associated with leaking septic tanks , animal / feedlot wastes , and agricultural chemicals .", "although these species are fully aquatic and two of the three require flowing water for respiration , the absolute low water limits for survival are not known . they survived the drought of the middle 1950 ' s , which resulted in cessation of flow at comal springs from june 13 through november 3 , 1956 . hueco springs is documented to have gone dry in the past", "these invertebrates were not extirpated by the only recorded temporary cessation of springflow . however , given that they are fully aquatic and that no water was present in the springs for a period of several months , they were probably negatively impacted . these species are not likely adapted to surviving long periods of drying ( up to several years in duration ) that may occur in the absence of a water management plan for the edwards aquifer that accommodates the needs of these invertebrates .", "stagnation of water may be a limiting condition , particularly for the comal springs dryopid beetle and peck ' s cave amphipod . stagnation of water and / or drying within the spring runs and the photic ( lighted ) zone of the spring orifices would probably be limiting for the comal springs riffle beetle because natural water flow is considered important to the respiration and therefore survival of this invertebrate species . elmid and dryopid beetles have a mass of tiny , hydrophobic ( unwettable ) hairs on their underside where they maintain a thin bubble of air through which gas exchange occurs ( chapman , 1982 ) . this method of respiration loses its effectiveness as the level of dissolved oxygen in the water decreases . a number of aquatic insects that use dissolved oxygen rely on flowing water to obtain oxygen .", "at present , competition is not known to be a significant threat to these species . however , two exotic snail species , thiara granifera and thiara tuberculata , are common in the spring runs and , as grazers , may compete for food . another exotic species , the giant ramshorn snail ( marisa cornuarietis ) , is present in two of the spring runs and may colonize the other runs at low flow levels . marisa can have a tremendous impact on vegetation , that in turn may affect the habitat for surface - dwelling grazers like the riffle beetle .", "in july of 2007 , the u . s . fish and wildlife service designated about 50 acres around four edwards springs as critical habitat for aquatic invertebrate species . although they were listed in 1997 , the u . s . fish & wildlife service did not designate any critical habitat , leading to a 2003 lawsuit by the center for biological diversity . under the bush administration , fish & wildlife service officials contended that designating critical habitat has little effect on protecting species . the center for biological diversity disagreed , and the wildlife service made the designation as part of a settlement . such a designation requires federal agencies to analyze activities they undertake , fund , or permit to determine if there may be any harm to the species ' habitat . if so , they must consult with the fish & wildlife service to determine how to eliminate or reduce the impacts to an acceptable level .", "the initial designation of 50 acres as critical habitat was deemed insufficient by scientists because it included only surface water and not the underground orifices critical to the species\u2019 survival . so the center for biological diversity and its allies filed suit again , resulting in a new proposal that was announced in october 2012 .", "the new proposal expands the critical habitat and includes new subsurface areas for the dryopid beetle and the peck\u2019s cave amphipod . in all , 169 acres of critical habitat are being proposed . the habitat areas overlap and consist of 39 acres of surface habitat and 139 acres of subsurface habitat for the comal springs dryopid beetle ; 38 surface acres and 138 subsurface acres for the peck\u2019s cave amphipod ; and 54 acres of protected surface habitat for the comal springs riffle beetle .", "in 1992 , several local groups , ( the alamo group of the sierra club , the balcones canyonlands conservation coalition , the helotes creek association , the texas cave management association , and texas speleological association ) petitioned the us fish and wildlife service to add the nine species of karst invertebrates to the list of threatened and endangered wildlife . the nine species of invertebrates are known only from caves in the northern and northwest parts of bexar county . in december 2000 the fish and wildlife service designated the nine species as endangered under the endangered species act .", "invertebrates are animals without internal skeletons or backbones such as butterflies , beetles , grasshoppers and spiders . the nine bexar county species listed as endangered include three beetles , five spiders , and one harvestman , a relative of the common household daddy - longlegs . although small , ranging from less than 2 millimeters to 9 millimeters long , and generally overlooked because they spend their entire lives underground , these invertebrates are biologically and ecologically unique . they resemble creatures out of tim burton ' s animation , with eyes that are either very small or entirely absent , and bodies that are long and thin , with no coloration , appearing white but actually being transparent .", "four of the species are currently only known from one cave and three others are only known from two to eight caves . it is likely these species also exist in other caves on private property which the fish & wildlife service were not allowed to inspect . although these species are known only from caves , they may also use karst passages that are too small for people or that have no known entrance at the surface . the number of caves known to contain these species is likely to increase in the future as more caves are discovered and inspected . the listing of these species was not based on a known decline in the number of individuals or the known locations , but rather on evidence that all these species are subject to threats to their continued existence throughout all or most of their range .", "these species are currently being threatened by the rapid pace of development around san antonio and northern bexar county . development can degrade the cave environment through increased vandalism , contamination from sewer or septic tank leaks , storm water run - off , pesticides , or chemical spills . development can also destroy the cave outright through digging or filling . these species are also threatened by the invasion of non - native fire ants which can prey upon them as well as compete with them for their limited sources of food .", "a number of the caves where these species are found are located on the texas parks and wildlife department ' s government canyon state natural area and the u . s . army ' s camp bullis , both of which have developed and implemented protective management plans .", "the invertebrates are highly adapted to their underground home , an environment which has a very stable temperature ; very high , constant humidity ; and little food . the lack of food and stability of their environment leads to an ecosystem with very few species . this makes cave environments valuable areas for ecological research . it also means that a sudden change in the environment or loss of a species could quickly wipe out the entire ecosystem .", "ecologically , cave invertebrates can be described as more similar to large mammals like elephants than to their invertebrate cousins which live on the surface . like elephants , they have few offspring and live relatively long lives ( for invertebrates ) , a characteristic ecologists call \" k - selected \" . this also means their populations are more sensitive to losing even fairly small numbers of individuals , and that it takes a long time for their population sizes to recover from any catastrophe .", "the surface environment of karst areas is also an integral part of the habitat needed by the animals inhabiting the underground areas . because plants cannot grow in the blackness of caves , the cave ecosystem is entirely dependent on input from the outside . food in a cave can come either through animals that cave biologists call \" trogloxenes \" , which roost in the cave but forage for food on the outside , like bats , mice , or cave crickets , or through organic material like leaves being washed into the cave entrance or filtered in through the ground above the cave . mammal feces provide a medium for the growth of fungi and , subsequently , localized population blooms of several species of tiny , hopping insects . these insects reproduce rapidly on rich food sources and may become prey for some predatory cave invertebrates . the nine listed invertebrates are probably predaceous and eat the eggs , larvae , or adults of other cave invertebrates ."]}

calibrated pairs of rodents ( \u201c d 1 \u201c or \u201c d 2 \u201c vs . \u201c d 3 \u201c or \u201c d 4 \u201c ; fig . 2 ) , ( 2 ) one pair of rodents versus one pair of lagomorphs ( \u201c d 5 \u201c ) , ( 3 ) one pair of glires versus one pair of cetartiodactyls ( \u201c d 6 \u201c ) , and ( 4 ) one pair of paenungulates ( \u201c d 7 \u201c ) versus the remaining pairs of placentals . the seven pairs of calibrating taxa are detailed in table 1 .", "our dating results on glires agree with the hypothesis that mesozoic placental divergences only involved the first basal clades of the placental tree , whereas the diversification of extant lineages occurred after the k - t boundary ( hedges et al . 1996 ; alroy 1999 ; eizirik , murphy , and o ' brien 2001 ; madsen et al . 2001 ) . dating involving other placental clades are required to verify whether the pattern observed for rodents ( i . e . , a diversification only after the k - t boundary ) is valid for other placental orders too .", "molecular dating indicates a late cretaceous divergence , 83 . 2 mya ( 74 . 1\u201394 . 4 ; fig . 4 ) , for the last common ancestor of glires and laurasiatheria ( represented here by cetartiodactyls ) . this date is congruent with paleontological studies : ungulates have been linked to the 85 mya zhelestids ( archibald 1996 ) , and glires have been strongly related to the zalambdalestids whose oldest fossil is estimated to be 90 mya ( archibald , averianov , and ekdale 2001 ) . this estimate also agrees with the quartet dating ( 63 . 5\u201395 . 3 myr ) of eizirik , murphy , and o ' brien ( 2001 ) using independent calibration points . first divergences within placentals seem to occur 101 . 2 mya ( 88 . 5\u2013116 . 4 ; fig . 4 ) , at the transition between early and late cretaceous , but there are huge variations between ages provided by different quartets . additional calibration points within laurasiatheria are likely to stabilize these estimates ( eizirik , murphy , and o ' brien 2001 ) . these molecular dates should also be confirmed in the future using other dating methods , such as for example the bayesian approach of thorne , kishino , and painter ( 1998 ) .", "rodentia is the largest order of placental mammals , with approximately 2 , 050 species divided into 28 families . it is also one of the most controversial with respect to its monophyly , relationships between families , and divergence dates . here , we have analyzed and compared the performance of three nuclear genes ( von willebrand factor , interphotoreceptor retinoid - binding protein , and alpha 2b adrenergic receptor ) for a large taxonomic sampling , covering the whole rodent and placental diversity . the phylogenetic results significantly support rodent monophyly , the association of rodentia with lagomorpha ( the glires clade ) , and a glires + euarchonta ( primates , dermoptera , and scandentia ) clade . the resolution of relationships among rodents is also greatly improved . the currently recognized families are divided here into seven well - defined clades ( anomaluromorpha , castoridae , ctenohystrica , geomyoidea , gliridae , myodonta , and sciuroidea ) that can be grouped into three major clades : ctenohystrica , gliridae + sciuroidea , and a mouse - related clade ( anomaluromorpha , castoridae + geomyoidea , and myodonta ) . molecular datings based on these three genes suggest that the rodent radiation took place at the transition between paleocene and eocene . the divergence between rodents and lagomorphs is placed just at the k - t boundary and the first splits among placentals in the late cretaceous . our results thus tend to reconcile molecular and morphological - paleontological insights .", "rhombomylus is a gliroid mammal endemic to several early eocene localities of central and eastern asia . it is best represented by a collection of numerous jaws and teeth , dozens of juvenile and adult skulls , and associated postcranial specimens from the early eocene yuhuangding formation at the dajian village , junxian county , hubei province , china . . . the core of the study consists of a taxonomic revision of the genus , a detailed description of the osteological morphology , extensive analyses on morphological characters , analyses on phylogeny , discussions on divergence time of the glires , and analyses on functional morphology of mastication and locomotion . in comparing all known specimens assigned to the genus , we recognize only a single species , rhombomylus turpanensis , for the genus and consider ' r . laianensis ' a junior synonym . . .", "we analyze three nuclear genes that are not genetically linked and code for proteins that do not display any known biological interactions : the alpha 2b adrenergic receptor ( a2ab ) , the exon 1 of interphotoreceptor retinoid -

square tests for the five data sets , a2ab , irbp , vwf , irbp + vwf , and a2ab + irbp + vwf , by comparing the nucleotide composition of each sequence with the frequency distribution assumed in the ml model . these five data sets actually displayed a significant base compositional heterogeneity for 5 , 4 , 7 , 10 , and 13 species , respectively\u2014including 2 , 1 , 2 , 5 , and 7 glires , respectively\u2014among the 42 mammals . a closer examination revealed that the base composition at third codon positions was responsible for this heterogeneity . for each codon position of the three genes , we computed the difference in gc content between the gc - richest sequence and the gc - poorest sequence . the difference in gc content ranges between 8 . 1 % and 16 . 9 % for the first codon position , 6 . 3 % and 10 . 3 % for the second codon position , and 24 . 7 % and 35 . 9 % for the third codon position , with vwf showing the most heterogeneous base composition . some sequences presented high ( e . g . , bradypus ) or low ( e . g . , mus , orycteropus , marsupialia ) gc content at third codon positions for the three genes . other sequences showed extreme gc values at third codon positions for one gene but presented average gc levels for the two other genes ( e . g . , geomyidae for vwf vs . a2ab and irbp ) . after exclusion of third codon positions , base composition became homogeneous for all placental taxa . because preliminary results indicated that ml reconstructions might be affected by the base composition heterogeneity at third codon positions , all subsequent ml nucleotide analyses were conducted on first + second codon positions only . no compositional heterogeneity was detected in the protein sequences .", "copyright \u00a9 1999 -

building methods either on nucleotide or on protein sequences ( nj - wave , standard and differentially weighted mp , ml , and bayesian approach ) provided the same overall phylogenies , with minor topological variations involving only weakly supported nodes . considering ml analysis on nucleotide sequences as best representing the results of the individual genes , only those results will be detailed here . for comparative purposes , quartet puzzling reliability percentage observed on protein sequences ( rp prot ) and bayesian posterior probabilities for nucleotides ( pp nuc ) and proteins ( pp prot ) are however indicated for the combined data set .", "the trees reconstructed from first plus second codon positions of each of the three genes are given in figure 1 . all three trees suggest the monophyly of rodents and that of sciuroidea ( marmota + aplodontia ) , geomyoidea ( dipodomys + thomomys ) , hystricognathi ( bathyergus , thryonomys , petromus , trichys , cavia , chinchilla , echimys , and erethizon ) , and ctenohystrica ( massoutiera + hystricognaths ) . discrepancies between the trees always involve weakly supported nodes ( i . e . , not involving two conflicting nodes with bp ml > 50 ) , except for the position of dipodidae and the relationships among cetartiodactyla . according to a2ab and irbp , dipodidae are the sister clade of muridae ( bp ml = 67 and 74 , respectively ) , whereas vwf clusters dipodidae with geomyoidea ( bp ml = 65 ) . the grouping of dipodidae with geomyidae may be an artifact resulting from similar base compositions and rapid rates of evolution of their vwf sequences ( data not shown ) . within cetartiodactyla , a2ab and irbp place lama in the most basal position relative to other cetartiodactyls ( bp ml = 51 and 81 , respectively ) , whereas vwf clusters lama with sus ( bp ml = 66 ) .", "in spite of having similar lengths , the three nuclear genes do not contain the same phylogenetic signal . each gene strongly supports some nodes , but these nodes might be different from one gene to another , and none is able to solve the whole rodent phylogeny . for example , only a2ab provides high support for rodent monophyly ( bp ml = 83 ) , irbp for myodonta monophyly ( i . e . , muridae + dipodidae , bp ml = 74 ) , and vwf for ctenohystrica monophyly ( bp ml = 91 ) . the results also indicate that the resolving power of each gene is not restricted to a given taxonomic level . for example , a2ab , unlike vwf , is able to solve deep relationships like rodent monophyly as well as more recent relationships like sciuroidea ( bp ml = 98 ) but not intermediate clades like ctenohystrica ( bp ml = 41 ) , whereas vwf does so .", "when codon positions 1 and 2 of the combined a2ab + irbp + vwf genes were analyzed under a single hky + \u03b3 8 model , the log - likelihood of the best topology was lnl = \u221226 , 415 . 56 . assuming six independent hky + \u03b3 8 models for each of the six partitions yielded lnl = \u221225 , 988 . 88 and resulted in a significant increase of log - likelihood ( lrt statistics = 853 . 36 ; df = 430 ; p < 0 . 0001 ) . the ml parameters estimated for the six partitions are given in table 2 . all three genes exhibit similar base compositions , on first as well as on second codon positions . the slowest evolving partition is the second codon position of a2ab , followed by\u2014with increasing relative rate\u2014a2ab ( first codon position ) , irbp ( second ) , vwf ( second ) , irbp ( first ) , and vwf ( first ) . second codon positions are more heterogeneous than first positions in terms of substitution rates for the three markers , but they display a higher transition - transversion rate parameter for irbp and vwf .", "although the a2ab , irbp , and vwf trees do not show any major topological incongruences , crossed shimodaira - hasegawa tests indicate that each nucleotide data set rejects the highest - likelihood topology of the two other data sets ( table 3 ) . however , none of the three genes rejects the ml topology obtained from the combined data set . consequently , this a posteriori observation suggests that the three genes can be combined and that the combined data tree accordingly appears to be the \u201cbest provisional phylogenetic hypothesis\u201d ( adkins et al . 2001 ) . the combination of a2ab , irbp , and vwf leads to a topology that stabilizes the phylogenetic position of rodents among mammals and contributes to resolve most of the relationships between rodent families .", "phylogenetic analyses based on first plus second codon positions of the three concatenated nuclear genes all indicate the monophyly of rodents , its support being the highest under the weighted mp ( not shown ) and the maximum likelihood approaches ( bp ml = 95 : fig . 2 ; rp prot = 74 ) . maximum likelihood tests of various phylogenetic hypotheses indicate that the alternative to the monophyly of rodents is significantly less likely ( table 4 ) . the bayesian approach also provides a posterior probability of 1 . 00 for the monophyly of rodents for both nucleotide and protein sequences ( trees not shown ) . our results thus confirm statistically the monophyly of rodentia with an extended sampling of this order\u2014including all sciurognath families and hystricognath superfamilies\u2014and with representatives of all other placental orders . in fact , with the recent increase of available complete mitochondrial genomes , rodent monophyly is no longer statistically rejected either ( cao et al . 2000 ; mouchaty et al . 2001 ) . it thus appears that the paraphyly of rodents will be difficult to defend with the broader taxonomic sampling within the order and with the growing number of molecular markers supporting their monophyly .", "our results suggest the division of rodentia into three major infraordinal clades . the first one comprises squirrel - and dormouse - related animals : sciuroidea ( sciuridae [ squirrels ] + aplodontidae [ mountain beavers ] ) and gliridae ( dormice ) . the second clade contains mouse - related rodents : myodonta ( muridae [ mouse , rats ] + dipodidae [ jerboas ] ) , castoridae ( beavers ) , geomyoidea ( geomyidae [ pocket gophers ] + heteromyidae [ pocket mice ] ) , and anomaluromorpha ( anomaluridae [ scaly - tailed flying squirrels ] + pedetidae [ springhares ] ) . the third clade ( ctenohystrica sensu huchon , catzeflis , and douzery 2000 ) contains gundi and guinea pig\u2013related rodents : ctenodactylidae and hystricognathi . the interrelationships between these three clades are poorly resolved . none of the three bifurcating topologies connecting them involves significantly different log - likelihood ( 0 . 28 < p sh < 0 . 32 ) , and the results are sensitive to the method of reconstruction and the data set considered . ctenohystrica clusters with the mouse - related clade for ml and bayesian nucleotide analyses ( bp ml = 40 : fig . 2 ; pp nuc = 0 . 83 ) . however , bayesian protein analysis clusters ctenohystrica with the squirrel - and dormouse - related clade ( pp prot = 0 . 70 ) , and quartet puzzling protein analysis clusters the mouse - related clade with the squirrel - and dormouse - related clade ( rp prot = 42 ) .", "the monophyly of sciuroidea ( sciuridae and aplodontidae ) has been supported by morphological ( e . g . , lavocat and parent 1985 ; meng 1990 ) and molecular data ( huchon , catzeflis , and douzery 1999 , 2000 ; adkins et al . 2001 ; debry and sagel 2001 ) . the increase in taxonomic sampling did not reduce the support for this clade ( bp ml = 100 ; rp prot = 85 ) . in agreement with debry and sagel ( 2001 ) , we observe that sciuroidea are characterized by a unique insertion of three amino acids in the irbp gene . the sister clade of sciuroidea appears to be the gliridae ( fig . 2 ) . the existence of this suprafamilial clade has been suggested by morphological ( e . g . , lavocat and parent 1985 ; meng 1990 ) and mitochondrial ( reyes et al . 2000 ) studies ; however , similar to other molecular studies ( e . g . , huchon , catzeflis , and douzery 1999 ; adkins et al . 2001 ; debry and sagel 2001 ; montgelard et al . 2002 b ) , the support here remains moderate to strong . it is noteworthy that the support is higher with protein sequences ( pp prot = 1 . 00 ; rp prot = 75 ; p sh < 0 . 05 ) than with nucleotide sequences ( pp nuc = 1 . 00 ; bp ml = 58 ; p sh < 0 . 15 ) .", "the grouping of anomaluromorpha , castoridae , geomyoidea , and myodonta ( fig . 2 ) has never been suggested by morphological and paleontological observations . castoridae has usually been related to sciuridae because both families share the sciuromorph and sciurognath states ( brandt 1855 ; tullberg 1899 ) . however , some morphological studies could not confirm this relationship ( bugge 1985 ; lavocat and parent 1985 ; meng 1990 ) , and it has even been suggested that castoridae might be more closely related to muridae than to sciuridae ( meng 1990 ) . anomaluridae and pedetidae were considered as enigmatic families , possibly related to ctenodactylidae or hystricognathi ( e . g . , luckett and hartenberger 1985 ; jaeger 1988 ) . geomyoidea has , less ambiguously , been associated with the muridae ( e . g . , wahlert 1985 ; ryan 1989 ) .", "the mouse - related clade is moderately to strongly supported ( pp nuc and pp prot = 1 . 00 ; bp ml = 65 : fig . 2 ; rp prot = 43 ) , and alternative hypotheses cannot be significantly rejected ( table 4 ) . such a molecular support and lack of morphological evidence might reflect that we are dealing with a phylogenetic artifact , but independent molecular studies identified the same node , although it was not explicitly noticed and discussed ( adkins et al . 2001 ; murphy et al . 2001 a ) . consequently , the naturalness of this new superfamilial arrangement must be seriously considered in future studies . another interesting aspect of this mouse - related clade is that it includes animals displaying different jaw patterns and having different geographical origins . myodonta has been suggested to have originated from asian hystricomorph rodents , anomaluromorpha might have originated from african hystricomorph rodents , and geomyidae and castoridae are sciuromorph rodents from north america ( e . g . , vianey - liaud 1985 ; hartenberger 1998 ) . this suggests a complicated biogeographical history and an ancient origin for this rodent clade . this group might have a paleocene or an early - eocene origin because muridae , dipodidae , anomaluridae , geomyoidea , and castoridae are rooted in\u2014or related to\u2014early - and middle - eocene families : cricetidae , zapodidae , zegdoumyidae , eomyidae , and eutypomyidae , respectively ( hartenberger 1998 ) .", "the lack of resolution for the branching order of the three clades anomaluromorpha , castoridae + geomyidae , and myodonta is illustrated by the ml and bayesian analyses . anomalurus connects either with castor + geomyidae ( pp nuc = 0 . 56 and pp prot = 0 . 33 ; bp ml = 29 ; fig . 2 ) or with myodonta ( pp nuc = 0 . 40 and pp prot = 0 . 36 ; bp ml = 37 ) .", "the grouping of ctenodactylidae and hystricognathi in a ctenohystrica clade has been strongly supported by the vwf gene ( huchon , catzeflis , and douzery 2000 ) and the ghr gene ( adkins et al . 2001 ) . our results confirm these observations ( pp nuc and pp prot = 1 . 00 ; bp ml = 100 ; rp prot = 93 ) , and breaking the monophyly of ctenohystrica is a significantly worse alternative ( p sh < 0 . 03 ; table 4 ) , as is the case for constraining ctenodactylidae to branch with other sciurognaths ( p sh < 0 . 03 ) . among hystricognathi , the relationships obtained agree with the conclusions of huchon and douzery ( 2001 ) . hystricognathi is divided into three clades : hystricidae , phiomorpha s . s . ( i . e . , bathyergidae , thryonomyidae , and petromuridae ) and caviomorpha ( i . e . , octodontoidea , cavioidea , erethizontoidea , and chinchilloidea ) . it is interesting to note that the increase of sequence length favors a basal position of hystricidae ( pp nuc and pp prot = 1 . 00 ; bp ml = 87 ; rp prot = 74 ) , but alternative hypotheses are not significantly less likely ( p sh < 0 . 14 ; table 4 ) .", "following tullberg ( 1899 ) , rodents have been divided into two suborders\u2014sciurognathi and hystricognathi . according to our molecular data , hystricognathi remains a valid clade ( bp ml = 100 ; fig . 2 , rp prot = 93 ) , but the monophyly of sciurognathi is statistically rejected ( see earlier ; table 4 ) . an alternative classification divided rodents into myomorpha , sciuromorpha , and hystricomorpha ( brandt 1855 ) . the contents of these groups changed according to the authors , and we here follow the classification of mckenna and bell ( 1997 ) . constraining the monophyly of myomorpha , i . e . , clustering muridae + dipodidae with geomyoidea and gliridae , is significantly less likely than the best ml topology with our a2ab + irbp + vwf nucleotide and protein data ( p sh < 0 . 05 ; table 4 ) . the grouping of aplodontidae , sciuridae , and castoridae into sciuromorpha is marginally rejected ( p sh < 0 . 10 ) . hystricomorpha actually corresponds to hystricognaths and thus appears monophyletic . these results suggest that the current subordinal classification of rodents should be thoroughly revised .", "the timing of the diversification of extant placental orders is heavily debated . according to paleontology , they diverged in the paleocene , 65\u201355 mya ( e . g . , alroy 1999 ) . molecules rather suggest that placentals were already diversified in the cretaceous ( review in bromham , phillips , and penny 1999 ) . however , various molecular studies give deviating datings . their estimations are generally based on few calibration points and use either distance ( e . g . , hedges et al . 1996 ; janke , xu , and arnason 1997 ; springer et al . 1997 b ; kumar and hedges 1998 ; waddell et al . 1999 ; review in bromham , phillips , and penny 1999 ) , or bayesian ( cao et al . 2000 ) , or ml ( eizirik , murphy , and o ' brien 2001 ) approaches .", "address for correspondence and reprints : emmanuel j . p . douzery , laboratoire de pale\u0301ontologie , pale\u0301obiologie et phyloge\u0301nie - cc064 , institut des sciences de l ' evolution umr 5554 / cnrs , universite\u0301 montpellier ii , place e . bataillon , 34 095 montpellier cedex 05 , france . douzery @ urltoken", "fig . 1 . \u2014maximum likelihood trees and corresponding bp computed from first and second codon positions of each nuclear marker . the length of the branch leading to marsupials has been reduced three times . the following ml parameters of the hky + \u03b3 8 model maximize the log - likelihood for a2ab ( \u2212lnl = 6 , 858 . 67 ) : transition - transversion parameter \u03ba = 1 . 61 , \u03b1 = 0 . 33 , for irbp ( \u2212lnl = 8 , 824 . 71 ) : \u03ba = 2 . 11 , \u03b1 = 0 . 41 , and for vwf ( \u2212lnl = 10 , 399 . 48 ) : \u03ba = 1 . 58 , \u03b1 = 0 . 52 . nodes labeled with asterisks do not occur in the bootstrap consensus tree", "this work would not have been possible without the essential contribution of all collectors who provided mammalian tissues now housed in the collection of montpellier : marina baskevich ( for dryomys ) , dona l . dittmann ( thomomys ;

level changes at different geological times together with plate tectonics led to the currently observed worldwide distribution .", "to establish the transcriptomic database of bathynellacea , we performed rna -

like ancestors . there is good evidence that the postembryonic development of their surface - living ancestors passed through a series of several larval stages . in the course of adaptation to life in the groundwater , abbreviation of this development caused by precocious sexual maturity at an early stage of larval development marked the beginning of the evolution of subterranean bathynellacea . today they reach adulthood at a stage that corresponds to the last larval stage of their ancestor . a morphological consequence of this adaptational process was that their body became continually smaller and its structure increasingly simpler . as a result , they finally fitted into the small spaces between sand particles of the groundwater - bearing strata . ecologically they progressed from a benthic life through a colonization of coarse substrates with large interstitial spaces to an existence in ever smaller sediments with ever narrower spaces between the particles . the ancestral form of the bathynellacea had conquered a completely new habitat and marked the beginning of an impressive radiation leading to a worldwide colonization of the groundwater .", "bathynellacea are typical inhabitants of groundwater and can be collected in wells , in sandy banks of rivers and sandy shores of lakes , in caves , and in springs . one species is known from a hot spring in africa at a temperature of 131\u00b0f ( 55\u00b0c ) . bathynellacea are absent from surface waters . only two species are known from lake baikal , where they occur on sandy patches down to 4 , 725 - ft depth ( 1 , 440 - m ) , but not in the open water . a few species have been recorded from near the seashore and tolerate brackish water conditions . only one species is polyhaline .", "in bathynellacea the sexes are separate . mating behavior has never been observed . the eggs are shed freely and singly . the egg passes through a nauplius stage . after hatching , postembryonic development passes through two phases , a larval ( parazo\u00ebal ) phase with three stages , and a juvenile ( bathynellid ) phase with a variable number of stages .", "citation : kim b -

and mechanosensory structures as well as the mouthparts . the mandibles , used for biting , are symmetrical in structure . the thorax has seven pairs of biramous walking legs . the eighth pair is reduced in both sexes and in the male is transformed into a characteristic copulatory organ . the abdomen carries one pair of appendages on the first and last somite ( pleotelson ) . there can also be a pair of appendages on the second abdominal somite . the pair on the last somite ( uropods ) does not form a tailfan together with the pleotelson , as is the case in several related groups of crustacea . the basal segment ( sympodite ) of the uropods carries a characteristic row of spines . bathynellidae can be identified by the second antennae being directed anteriorly , by the last abdominal somite ( pleotelson ) carrying two dorsal setae , by the rim of the upper lip ( labrum ) being smooth and not serrate , by the outer branches ( exopodites ) of all seven walking legs being one - segmented , by the first abdominal appendages ( pleopods ) being two - segmented , and by the sympodite of the uropods being relatively short .", "since stygofauna have reduced or absent eyes and have enhanced non - optic sense organs without pigmentation [ 44 , 45 ] , the absence of pigments and eyes is observed in a . bangokensis . a total of 25 and 26 eye pigmentation genes that were retrieved from drosophila melanogaster and tribolium castaneum respectively [ 46 ] , were also aligned to the entire transcripts of a . bangokensis , but there was no matched transcripts in a . bangokensis transcriptome . although mrna expression of putative opsin genes was not observed in the a . bangokensis transcriptome , it will be interesting to investigate the presence or absence of the opsin repertoire in the genome and the evolutionary development of alternative sensory organs in future studies . several previous examples showed the potential correlation between reduced or absent eyes and transcriptional expression of the opsin repertoire . no loss of gene function in opsin gene paralogs with a reduced level of gene expression was reported in the cave - adapted amphipod gammarus minus [ 36 ] . the authors suggested that loss of expression of opsin genes without loss of gene function is explained by the pleiotropic roles of opsin genes [ 36 ] . extensive transcriptomic analysis revealed that three independently evolved subterranean diving beetles lack transcripts of nearly all opsin photoreceptor genes , whereas the two surface beetles showed evidence of transcriptional expression of a full suite of insect visual and non - visual opsin genes [ 47 ] . thus , research on the absence or presence of putative opsin genes from the a . bangokensis genome will be useful to understand the regressive evolution of eye reduction in the bathynellacea lineage .", "html public \" -

gathering appendages than possessed by their paleozoic ancestors ( 542 million to 251 million years ago ) . this evolutionary thrust has been marked by the development of ambulatory legs and specializations for benthic life and by the brooding of eggs and suppression of free - living larval development . especially significant has been a shift of food - gathering limbs from head to thorax and of swimming appendages and respiratory organs from head to thorax and finally to the abdomen . this rearward shift freed the antennae for the development of specialized organelles sensitive to odours , sounds , vibrations , and physical contact and added more appendages ( maxillipeds ) to the mouthpart field . such changes have enabled terrestrial malacostracans to utilize efficiently the new food resources that have accompanied the evolution and proliferation of vascular plants from the late paleozoic to the present .", "some decapod crabs have leg spans of more than three metres , and others weigh more than 10 kilograms ( 22 pounds ) . some free -

shaped in swimming taxa and form a broad tail fan with the telson for rapid propulsion . in benthic and subterranean species the uropods are often slender , elongate , and", "in function . the telson is bilobed in juvenile syncarids , larval eucaridans , some mysids , and most amphipods but platelike in all other malacostracans .", "the class malacostraca contains more than 29 , 000 living species and represents about half of all known crustacean species . it is the single largest group not only of marine arthropods but also of all fully aquatic arthropod taxa . within the malacostraca ,", "is the largest order , with more than 10 , 000 described species , followed by the orders isopoda ( 10 , 000 species ) and amphipoda ( 6 , 200 species ) . the other major orders have fewer than 1 , 000 species each .", "most malacostracans are marine . among the decapods , the ancient palinurans , their modern brachyuran ( 10 - legged crab ) derivatives , and the dendrobrachiate and stenopodid shrimps dominate in tropical and temperate marine shallows . the decapod caridean shrimps , astacidean lobsters and crayfish , and anomurans ( hermits and eight - legged crabs ) , however , dominate in cold - water and polar regions , in the deep sea , and in continental fresh waters . the amphipods and isopods are also abundant along cold - water marine shores and in the abyss and have widely penetrated fresh waters . they are also widespread in underground waters and terrestrial environments . stomatopods are largely confined to tropical marine shallows ; tanaids and cumaceans are found mainly in the colder deeps ; and mysids , though mainly marine , are also abundant in relicts of northern glacial lakes .", "malacostracans are often predators and scavengers . they are important ecologically in ridding the sea bottom and seashores of decaying animal and plant matter and in serving as middle - level converters of organic food energy to animal protein in a form suitable for fish , sea birds , marine mammals , and ultimately humans . the decapods and euphausiids ( krill , order euphausiacea ) are the only malacostracan groups that have a major direct economic value to humans .", "the malacostracan life cycle typically involves an egg stage ; a series of free - swimming , plankton - feeding larval stages ; a series of immature ( subadult ) growth stages ; and finally a sexually mature ( reproductive ) adult stage . hermaphroditic adults are present in a few isopods . in the primitive swarming type of reproduction the male seeks out the female in the open water , usually in synchrony with lunar periodicity , cycles of temperature , or food availability .", "( copulation ) is very brief , often completed in a few seconds and usually following the reproductive molt of the female , when her exoskeleton is still soft . the eggs are fertilized as they are extruded from the oviductal opening on the sternum of the sixth thoracic segment . in many species males do not feed , do not reproduce again , and do not live long after mating . fertilized eggs may be shed freely in the sea , where they hatch , usually into nauplius larvae . in marine groups that", "the eggs by attaching them to the pleopods , the eggs hatch as late - stage larvae , which are often carnivorous ( e . g . , zoeae and phyllosoma larvae of decapods , antizoeae and pseudozoeae of stomatopods ) . these larvae eventually sink or swim to the bottom and pass through one or more stages prior to attaining the juvenile stage . where embryos develop within a thoracic", ", the larval stages are suppressed . the embryos typically hatch as immature forms of the adult ( e . g . , isopoda , juveniles of the orders", "and amphipoda ) , but parental brooding may be continued for a further few molts . in the deep sea and in fresh waters , whether embryos are laid freely ( superorder syncarida ) or brooded on pleopods ( decapods ) or in a thoracic pouch ( isopods and amphipods ) , they hatch as juveniles or immature adult forms .", "in the more advanced , especially bottom - dwelling , malacostracans or in those with specialized habits , mating usually takes place on or in the bottom . males may attend , guard , or carry the female for some time ( preamplexus ) prior to copulation ( amplexus ) , and mating may be prolonged for several hours ; the male usually continues to feed , molt , and mate further ( in isopods , creeping decapods , and benthic amphipods ) . where the female exoskeleton variously hardens prior to mating , the oviductal opening is often complex , and sperm transfer is assisted by correspondingly modified first and second pleopods of the male ( \u201cinternal\u201d fertilization of stomatopods , isopods , and the superorder eucarida ) . newly hatched late larvae or juveniles may be initially guarded or carried by the female ( in stomatopods and some amphipods and isopods ) .", "malacostracans are primarily swimmers and secondarily walkers , clingers , and burrowers . swimming is accomplished primitively by coordinated , synchronous beating of the biramous head appendages in early larval stages and thoracic appendages in later larval stages and the adult stages of leptostracan shrimp , mysids , and syncardids and in", ", decapods , and other eucarid malacostracans . the swimming action characteristic of adult malacostracans is provided by abdominal pleopods . typically , each of the first five abdominal segments bears , on the ventral ( lower ) surface , a pair of pedunculate , biramous pleopods . in order to beat in unison , each pair is usually hooked together by spines on the inner margin of the peduncle ( retinacula ) or the inner ramus ( \u201cclothespin spines\u201d ) . the amphipods are unique in having only three pairs of pleopods , the last two pairs being modified as stiff , thrusting uropods . in primitive forms the pleopod rami are slender and segmented ( annulate ) , as in amphipods and procarididean decapods , all of which are primarily swimmers as adults ; however , in all the other malacostracan groups , most of which are crawlers and burrowers , the rami are broad , flaplike , and unsegmented . the pleopods are typically reduced , or even lost , in many burrowers . the swimming crabs use paddlelike fifth thoracic legs for propulsion . abrupt swimming propulsion is provided by the", "tail fan . in amphipods the tail fan ( consisting of three pairs of uropods and telson ) provides a sudden forward thrust . in eucaridans ( especially decapods ) the tail fan ( paired uropods and telson ) provides a characteristic \u201ctail - flip\u201d or sudden backward escape reaction .", "in most benthic malacostracans the hind five to seven pairs of thoracic legs have become essentially uniramous ( single - branched ) \u2014the inner branch is thickened and stiffened and adapted for walking or crawling . in amphipods the first four pairs are pointed forward and the last three backward , an adaptation for perching , clinging , climbing in \u201cinchworm\u201d fashion , or jumping .", "in burrowing malacostracans , especially decapods and stomatopods , the distal segments of some legs attain a pincerlike form that facilitates both digging and removal of the soft substratum . in many species of burrowing amphipods , the claws are reduced , but the adjacent segments are much broadened , strongly spined , and powerfully muscled . rapid leg movements , often aided by the fanning action of setose antennae and the hydraulic tunneling motion of powerful pleopods , enable these torpedo - shaped crustaceans to swim through loose sandy substrata , feeding as they go .", "malacostracans consume virtually every available kind of organic matter , plant or animal , living or dead . the small - to medium - sized animals primarily consume detritus and plankton , and some parasitize other aquatic organisms . the larger - sized malacostracans are mainly carnivores and scavengers , preying on a wide range of small invertebrates and fishes or devouring the carcasses of whales , seals , fishes , and large invertebrates . burrowing and small groundwater malacostracans are filter feeders , consuming microorganisms and bacteria from the sediments . terrestrial isopods and amphipods consume forest leaf litter and algae at the tide lines .", "malacostracans capture or obtain their food primarily by using their thoracic legs . in early free - swimming larvae and the adults of some filter - feeding or deposit - feeding amphipods , isopods , and hemicarideans and in large carnivorous palinuran decapods , food may be gathered ( occasionally killed ) by means of the antennae and other head appendages . in carnivorous , or raptorial , species one or more of the thoracic legs are enlarged , and the tips are pincerlike , allowing the animal to capture , kill , and initially shred its prey . in lobsters and crayfish the first walking leg ( fourth thoracic ) is fully cheliform ( pincerlike ) , and either the left or right claw is massive , with pavementlike teeth for crushing hard - shelled prey such as snails and clams . in \u201cspearer\u201d - type stomatopods the raptorial claw is toothed and spiny for stabbing soft - bodied prey . \u201csmashers\u201d have a swollen , hammerlike claw for crushing hard - bodied prey .", "malacostracans ( except for leptostracans ) typically have one to three pairs of thoracic limbs modified as accessory mouthparts . these", "( or \u201cjaw legs\u201d ) pass food to the masticatory , or chewing , mouthparts of the head proper . the thoracic segment of the first pair of maxillipeds is usually fused to the head , forming a cephalon . in stomatopods the first five pairs are called maxillipeds , but only the first pair is functionally so and its body segment is not fused to the head . in amphipods the first two pairs of thoracic legs may also function as food - pushing limbs , but their segments are typically free . in decapods the first two or three pairs serve as maxillipeds , and their segments are fused within the cephalothorax .", "the mouthparts generally reflect feeding habits . in flesh eaters and scavengers the mandibular incisors are typically large and the plates and palps of the maxillae and maxillipeds are armed with strong spines and cutting edges , whereas the molar is small or lacking . in those species that consume all organic material and in those that consume only plants , the molar is usually strong , with an inner grinding surface . in filter feeders the plates of the maxillules , the maxillae , or both may be enlarged and equipped with a large number of fine - filtering ( plumose ) setae . accessory ( baler ) plates , for directing feeding currents , are often well developed ( e . g . , in cumaceans and haustoriid amphipods ) .", "relationships with other invertebrates , fishes , marine mammals , and reptiles . many decapods , especially porcellanid and xanthid crabs , live permanently in cavities among sponges , corals , and bryozoans . some amphipods live within the respiratory and feeding cavities of sponges , tunicates , and anemones . lafystiid and some lysianassid amphipods , as well as aegid , cymathoid , and immature gnathiid isopods , are external parasites of fish . cyamid amphipods occur on whales and some hyalid amphipods in the buccal cavities of marine turtles . epicaridean isopods are fully parasitic on other crustaceans , especially decapods . the body of the host may be much deformed and the body of the parasitic female very much transformed , quite unlike the small , symmetrically segmented , and otherwise normal male .", ", covering the body and limbs of malacostracans is divided into segments interconnected by strong , flexible membranes , allowing for articulation at the joints . the cuticle is usually soft and thin in small , wormlike , generally subterranean species , in parasitic species , or in the respiratory surfaces of free - living species . in large , heavy , mostly carnivorous species , the cuticle is highly mineralized or impregnated with calcium salts . such an exoskeleton provides considerable mechanical leverage and protection to the owner .", ". they shed the old cuticle , expand in size , and secrete a new cuticle that subsequently hardens . this process may require several days for completion ( in some hard - shelled bottom dwellers ) . the animals remain in sheltered locations until the new exoskeleton is hardened .", "the malacostracan central nervous system consists , in primitive forms , of a ventral nerve cord and ganglia within each body segment . the supraesophageal ganglion innervates the eyes , antennules , and antennae , and the subesophageal ganglion innervates the mouthparts of the head region . in amphipods and anomuran decapods the ganglia of abdominal segments are variously fused . in brachyuran decapods the abdominal and thoracic ganglia are fused into a single central thoracic ganglionic centre .", "nearly all surface - dwelling members have pigmented eyes , but these are usually reduced or totally lost in underground and deep - sea species . crustacean eyes are", "( as in insects ) and may be composed of thousands of individual facets , or ommatidia . the compound eyes of most malacostracans and their advanced larval stages are located on a movable stalk . the overall image is formed by combining the images from many individual ommatidia . the compound eye is especially sensitive to movement and has a wide field of vision , often more than 180\u00b0 . this is an enormous advantage to large , predatory malacostracans .", "the eyes of smaller , mainly benthic , nonpredatory malacostracans , such as amphipods , hemicarideans , and isopods , are located on small lobes or flat on the sides of the head . except in predatory or nocturnal amphipods , the eyes are small and consist of only a few facets . light that may strike a large patch of facets is concentrated on one ommatidium . such eyes provide poor visual acuity . compound eyes can discriminate colour , initiating changes within skin cells to match the colour of the substratum .", "olfactory hairs , or esthetascs , are used to locate food and recognize other crustaceans and their sexual states .", "occur generally over the external surfaces and appendages , especially of the antennae , food -

preserved skull of the pliocene hunting hyaena chasmaporthetes lunensis from la puebla de valverde ( teruel ) is described . this exceptional find allows us to define more clearly the cranial morphology of this taxon , and to put its morphological features into evolutionary and functional perspective . compared with the sympatric hyaenid pliocrocuta perrieri , c . iunensis has a higher and wider rostrum , cheek teeth placed more anteriorly in relation to the orbits , a lower zygoma and a dorsally concave saggital crest , all pointing to a lesser development of the muscle temporalis and a greater emphasis on canine bite over premolar crushing bite . horizontal wear on the premolars , caudal extension of the frontal sinus and other features indicate that scavenging or at least complete utilization of carcasses was a behavioural trait of the hunting hyaena . overall , the available evidence suggests that c . iunensis was an active , group hunting predator of medium - sized ungulates , able to fully utilize car - casses but less dedicated to scavenging than the contemporary species p . perrieri .", "although africa ' s spotted hyena is the most iconic member of the group , there are three other species of living hyena : the striped hyena , the brown hyena , and the aardwolf . they are all that ' s left of a once -

somewhere between 4 . 5 and 9 million years ago during the miocene , the recent ancestors of wolves split off from the ancestors of foxes . by 1 . 8 million years ago , wolves in north america had split from coyotes , and looked very much like they still do today . just think of this : when you look at a wolf , you are in a way looking at an animal that is 2 million years old !", "how do we know this ? of course , there were no people alive 120 million years ago to help us out . so we use the fossil record , which means that we look for evidence of the ancestors of wolves through bones or other remains that have been preserved by the earth over time .", "for wolves , the evidence is pretty convincing , although it is incomplete . scientists have tracked changes in skull size and shape , limb length , the evolution of sharp teeth for tearing meat , and evidence of changes in wolf population and habitat distribution over very long periods of time . in fact , researchers\u2019 use of the fossil record has led them to believe that north american wolves crossed the land bridge to eurasia and established themselves there 130 to 300 million years ago to evolve into canis lupus before returning to north america ! the wolf species that never left north america became different from those who had left and then returned ( boitani & mech 2003 ) .", "the sheer diversity of canids is amazing . some of them are more closely related than others , but all share an amazing evolutionary history that might even make you howl !", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "phylogenetic systematics of the borophaginae ( carnivora , canidae ) . bulletin of the amnh ; no . 243", "javascript is disabled for your browser . some features of this site may not work without it .", "full - text is provided in portable document format ( pdf ) . to view articles you must have the free adobe acrobat reader . click here to download the latest version . the . epub version displays best on an ipad , but may work on other devices that accept . epub format . download directly to your device\u2019s book reader ( e . g . , ibooks ) or drag into your e - books collection on your computer .", "bulletin of the american museum of natural history the bulletin , published continuously since 1881 , consists of longer monographic volumes in the field of natural sciences relating to zoology , paleontology , and geology . current numbers are published at irregular intervals . the bulletin was originally a place to publish short papers , while longer works appeared in the memoirs . however , in the 1920s , the memoirs ceased and the bulletin series began publishing longer papers . a new series , the novitates , published short papers describing new forms .", "department of library services american museum of natural history central park west at 79th st . , new york , ny 10024 \u00a9 american museum of natural history , 2011"]}

jeffrey benson , western oregon university ,", "in 1569 francisco de toledo was dispatched from spain by king phillip ii to assume the position of viceroy of spanish peru . toledo was expected to install political reforms that would further subordinate the natives especially in the andes , provide adequate workers for the mines , and increase the overall revenue for the royal treasury . although toledo legislated several reforms his three most influential were :", "3 ) establishing a regimen of forced labor to support the silver mines of peru and alto peru { bolivia } . the reforms were readily accepted by the local officials , but not because they wished to improve the status of the spanish crown ; rather it gave them a chance to further corrupt and reap the benefits . prior to the reforms of francisco de toledo , political and economic corruption was already in motion . after toledo ' s reforms were instituted , royal officials , clergy , entrepreneurs and even kurakas ( local native chieftains ) did what they could to take advantage of the system and profit . toledo ' s reforms permitted a larger share of spaniards to exploit the indios ( indigenous peoples ) productivity , increase their revenues and appease the crown . to some degree , both indirectly and directly , the reforms encouraged the indios to assimilate , adapt , change or hide in order to escape the obligations of the indio caste system .", "when the spanish conquistadors arrived in modern - day peru , the yanaconas declared themselves \u201cfriends of the spaniards\u201d , as most peasant societies are very sensitive to changes in power balances . they then assisted the spaniards to take control of the empire . after conquest , the yanacona population exploded with people leaving ayllus in correspondence with mining . spaniards favored the individual yanaconas ( as they were an alternative labor force ) instead of the ayllu - based encomienda system , so the population continued to increase .", "potosi - is a city in bolivia ; it is one of the highest cities in the world by elevation at a nominal 13 , 420 ft . and it was the location of the spanish colonial mint . potos\u00ed lies at the foot of the cerro de potos\u00ed , sometimes referred to as the cerro rico ( \" rich mountain \" ) . a mountain popularly conceived of as being \" made of \" silver ore , which has always dominated the city . the cerro rico is the reason for potos\u00ed ' s historical importance , since it was the major supply of silver for spain .", "two things to consider about the local officials were their capability to perform and their integrity . a . m . fuentes writes about the inefficiency of tribute collection of the yanaconas by the corregidores ( spanish mayors ) at the potosi .", "he writes , \" in the secular government i referred to your majesty about the sustenance and origin of these people , the very moderate tax they pay in some regions , how the corregidores and royal officals collect it , the value of yanacona tribute at potosi , and the silver which is consigned to the foot soldiers of government . the rest is of the royal treasury but of little importance owing to the poor collection , which you should rectify . \" toledo ' s reforms for collecting tribute clarified that tributarios ( indios who held and cultivated native property / land ) from the ages of 18 to 50 were to be subjected to the tribute system . \" in rural society , toledo ' s reorganization created imposing networks of authority , formal and informal , in which the corregidores stood at the center , armed with the police powers of the colonial state with that authority and protection corregidores began to take advantage of the system . the police powers were real enough , for corregidores and other officials jailed and whipped people , and impounded their belonging , under the guise of enforcing laws and punishing criminals . the corregidores also withheld tribute monies belonging to the crown in order to finance their own local business ventures .", "in addition to intimidating royal opposition and embezzling tribute , the corregidores also took advantage of the indios ' service . spanish officials also required andeans to serve as mitayos ( conscripted laborers ) in textile mills , on coca farms , and on public works projects , despite imperial and local laws forbidding the practices . when kurakas attempted to protest or take the local magistrates to court , the corregidores and their allies among the parish priest usually conspired to intimidate , abuse , jail , or even replace the ethnic leader with a more pliable candidate . \"", "the lure of riches , though , did not solely attract spaniards , but also kurakas . there is not sufficient evidence that all kurakas took advantage of the toledan system , however ; andrien offers one specific example that permits historians to identify the vast amount of wealth that a kuraka could acquire . he writes , \" the fabulously wealthy and powerful diego caqui , kuraka of tacna . . . when diego caqui died in 1588 , his will specified that the kuraka owned an estate worth 260 , 000 pesos , including a coastal vineyard with forty thousand plants and three ships engaged in coastal trading . the example offered by andrien demonstrates the potential for kurakas to take advantage of toledo ' s reforms . andrien does go to clarify that diego caqui used his wealth to promote festivals and distribute gifts among the indios , however ; that cannot be said of all the kurakas that took advantage of toledo ' s reforms and of their kinsmen .", "john v . murra notes a 1559 meeting , in which settlers were asked to discover the history of the indios . murra records the instructions of a royal official to several members of his staff , \" you will inquire if in olden times there were corporal services and in what form so that if these had prevailed , one would understand in all fairness what they could and should pay .", "in theory , mitayos were to work for one year then be paid and return home not having to serve again for about another seven years . zulawski notes , \" each worker was to remain for a year in potosi and be paid for his labor . after his turn in the villa imperial , he could return to his village and theoretically was not to serve again for about seven years . unfortunately , the decline of originarios and mass migration away from the mita regions caused the seven years away from the mita to become three years . tandeter comments , \" viceroy toledo had determined that each village would send to potosi each year a fixed number of indian men between the ages of eighteen and fifty , selected from a list of villages located in sixteen provinces centered in the altiplano ( also known as andean plateau ) , but reaching to the east and north , to the dividing line between collao and cusco .", "however , the bulk of the pressure fell upon the kurakas and the poor mitayos . the kurakas were in charge of supplying the local officials with a yearly quota of mitayos and if they were unable to accomplish this task then they and their family would lose their social status , be imprisoned and in some cases sent fo the mines . wightman further captures the intense amount of pressure bestowed upon a kuraka , \" as a parish priest explained in 1689 , ' there is no indian who wants to be kuraka , because of the problems to be faced in the fulfillment of the different obligations ; and the corregidores and their assistants force the richest indian to take this office , to serve as kuraka of these ayllus , even though he may not be an originario of the town . \"", "wightman states , \" the toledo reforms , however , were particularly vulnerable to manipulation because the per - capita basis for tribute and mita assessments led indian leaders to underreport their base population . however falsifying census records was extremely risky for kurakas because if caught they ' d be demoted , forced to pay a tribute and handed over to public works . in addition , for indios that were not properly recorded in the census , their houses would be demolished , they would be taken out by force , fined and handed over to public works .", "for the few indios that did survive their turn at the mita , when they return to their homeland , often they found that their land had been occupied by another party . wightman explains , \" indians who did return to their home communities often found that their lands had been seized by spaniards , taken by neighbors , or occupied by migrants from other communities . this unfortunate turn of events is not surprising in that the percentage of survivors was fewer than 15 % . it is likely that the spaniards or neighboring indios did not expect . the return of the majority mitayos .", "toledo ' s reforms clarified who was exempt and who wasn ' t , but he was unable to supervise local officials , so he was helpless to fully supervise his reforms . most indians didn ' t want to participate in the mita . so great was their distaste for the mita that they desired by whatever means to escape the mita service . cole comments , \" rather , the indians responded to the worsening situation in the mines by using every available means to evade the mita . however , were a huge mass of the work force to change their civil status , then the local officials would suffer . to avoid such cases the local officials simply ignored toledo ' s specifications .", "in addition to the mita , indios were required to pay a tribute to the royal crown and local officials . each civil status group within the indios caste system had to pay tribute with the exception of the kurakas . andrien states , \" kurakas were exempt , but members of the community clan structure ( tributarios ) paid the largest sums . those outside the ayllu or kin structure ( yanaconas ) and recent migrants ( forasteros ) paid lesser amounts . after the collection of the tributes the kurakas would transfer the goods over to the corregidores who would then deposit the sum to various offices .", "toledo ' s statement clearly shows that one of the spanish intentions for replacing the indios in reducciones was to christianize them and teach them of the catholic faith . whether their intentions were genuine or not is debatable , but what is noticeable is the official approval to christianize the indios and change their religious upbringings . one method of assimilating the indios into the catholic faith was rewarding them with exemption from the mita . \" the priest could bestow exemptions from the mita upon his favored lay assistants , and heap abuses upon the troublesome by accusing them of idolatry . thus , the more assimilated an indio became , culturally , the less he / she was punished , taxed , or forced to work , technically .", "most of the cultural changes , though , geographical , economic , horticultural , and religious were examples of forced change . indios who changed culturally were not guarantee better treatment , tax relief or mita exemption . as demonstrated earlier many forasteros and yanaconas were still being subjected to mita service even though they had changed their social economic status . that is why , as some historians have argued , the indios further changed socially in order to ascend beyond the indio caste system by establishing themselves as mestizo status .", "in order to do this the indios aimed to change every social aspect from indio to spanish . jackson argues , \" individuals consciously changed their behavior to be able to move to another and usually higher racial status within the caste system . indios , for example , could escape tribute obligations and service in labor drafts such as the andean mita by passing as mestizos . methods of change included clothes , language , surname , occupation , activities , architecture , religion , baptism , catholic marriage , location of home and accumulation of wealth . jackson continues , \" indios could change their mode of dress , learn to speak spanish , move to a city or away from their place of birth , take up a profession generally not associated with the indigenous population , and be reclassified as mestizos exempt from the unique legal obligations of the indigenous population . \" however , once the outward appearance has changed in an attempt to climb the social ladder , there still remained the legal documentation of identification .", "one method of escaping the indio caste by legal documentation was to simple state that you had some spanish background and were , thus , mestizos . this was such the case for antonio and agustin carrillo who won exemption from the mita based on their claim to spanish heritage in 1603 . many local officials advised against the judicial conclusion fearing an onslaught of social claims . stern records , \" the audiencia of la plata ruled in favor of the carrillos despite the objections of its fiscal , who counseled the tribunal that a ruling in favor of the brothers would open a pandora ' s box of problems for the mita , for the judicial system would soon be clogged with petitions from indians claiming some degree of spanish ancestry . jackson concurs adding this excerpt , \" the indians change their name , and declare themselves mestizos and yanaconas , they dress in the spanish way and work as artisans or in the convents with the intention of not complying with their obligations .", "claims of spanish ancestry were usually accompanied with wills , marriage records , baptismal records or testimony from a known spaniard . jackson discusses baptisms by stating , \" this was particularly the case with parish priests who recorded the racial status of newborn children . if the parents of a newborn child were members of the catholic church they could try to claim spanish ancestry at the baptism or provide a generous bribe to the local priest so that their son or daughter could be classified as a mestizo . in some cases the priest would even baptize infant boys as girls so that they could escape the mita service . another method that didn ' t involve using the church was the testimony of a spaniard , usually a hacienda owner . a hacienda owner who employed indios had to do one of two things when it came time to pay tribute ; 1 ) pay the tribute for the indios or 2 ) permit the indios to leave for a certain duration of time so that they could earn enough money to pay the tribute . if , however , a indio suddenly changed identity to a mestizo then the hacienda owner would no longer have to burden himself with his / her tribute situation . jackson notes , \" hacienda owners , for example , conspired to have their workers removed from the tribute rolls . in this way , the hacendados would not have to contend with paying their workers ' tribute , or allow the workers time off to work elsewhere to earn money to cover the tribute payments .", "in a 1582 manuscript from la biblioteca nacional de lima titled \" limpieza de sangre , \" contains the process by which a witness might have had to justify the social identity of another . in this particular manuscript dona juana fernandez de ugarte is the person of interest , who is trying to solidify her social class standing and the witness is martin hurtado de aviento .", "there are several questions the court asks martin and in the manuscript he provides adequate answers to assure the social identity of dona juana . provided are several of those questions along with martin ' s replies :", "question 1 : first to be asked if they know the parents and the francisco de yrarrazabal , so the father and mother and grandfather and parents of dona lorenza de zarate said his wife , so the father and mother contained in this memorial and if they know who is the legitimate child of such parents .", "response : the first question he said , who knows that don francisco de yrarrazabal , twenty - five years now , what was known in this city , and has news of dona lorenza de zarate said his wife , because although he has not seen public knows or noticeable thing is his wife , and there were , this witness had known and understood , as a country and try and recruit very familiar with many relatives of the don francisco .", "question 5 : and who knows if the said dona lorenza zarate woman said don francisco de yrarrazabal is legitimate daughter of these parents and that she and they and their grandparents and those from father and mother every of them have been and are christians and clean blood and clean without spot or race or indian descent , moors and converts or another sect of newly converted and that these have been incurred and taken and if it would otherwise have been known rumor or what they know or have heard about .", "response : to the fifth question he said , who knows what is contained in this question because it has been treated and chat for a striking thing to be clean people , old christians , gentlemen . sons , content on this question , heard or understood without knowing anything to the contrary and also knows that to be the legitimate daughter of dona lorenza said parents , who saw her as such in seville in his mother ' s house .", "response : in the sixth question he said , that never understood or heard anything contained in this question , if any , this witness know what you think and could not be less . the play out of the interrogation creiltes an environment of uncertainty . the questions tend to represent a common procedure , however ; the responses are not very clear and direct , but are somewhat witty and taunting in discourse . if the court is to make a decision against dona juana they must explain their reasoning with evidence , otherwise , the social status of many could be at jeopardy . to approve of the social status of dona juana , the court has to clarify that the evidence provided is not falsified and the honest testimony of the witness was absolute . the atmosphere of uncertainty was not to be impeded with one trial . if indios had more success than failure at changing their identity through the spanish courts then there was no reason to not attempt social change and escape the spanish colonial corruption .", "toledo ' s reforms permitted a larger share of spaniards to exploit the indios productivity , increase their revenues , appease the crown to some degree and indirectly encourage the indios to assimilate , adapt , change and hide in order to escape the obligations of the indio caste system . the indios were exhausted physically and economically and they used all sorts of methods to change socially ; language , clothes , lifestyle , occupations , food , migration of forastero status , etc . they took great risk to challenge the spanish court system and justify their spanish ancestry using wills , genealogy records , baptismal records , marriage records , and testimony from known spaniards . they risked much in order to liberate themselves from the corrupted reforms of toledo , the hardships of the indio caste system and from the abusive relationships with the local and royal officials . it was these atrocities that grew with fervor with the toledo reforms that caused the indios to seek ways of socially changing their identity and become mestizos .", "in the earliest days of the european invasion , when inka resistance , potentially so threatening , turned out to be virtually absent ( lockhart 1972 ) , the pizarros acquired a steadfast ally , the wanka / ca\u00f1aris lords . it was in their territory , xauxa , that the europeans established their first capital . along with thousands of soldiers and bearers , the canaris provided the newcomers with strategic information , plus the food and weapons stored in hundreds of warehouses built by the inka and filled locally ( polo de ondegardo 1940 [ 1561 ] ) . in one region where the inka had managed to cobble together some resistance , as at hu\u00e1nuco , the europeans had to call on canaris troops to help them put down \u201cthe rebellion . \u201d all this assistance provided the europeans was recorded with care on a khipu kept by the canaris lords . this record was first described by cieza de le\u00f3n , some fifteen years after the invasion . such bookkeeping later became the subject of litigation initiated at the viceregal court , at lima , by one of the lords who in 1532 had opened the country to the troops of charles v ( murra 1975 ) . this man , don francisco cusichac , felt betrayed by the ill treatment of his people and the neglect of his own privileges .", "the only other group to be treated so harshly by toledo were the descendants of another wing of the andean elite who also sided from the earliest days with the invaders . these were the \u201csons\u201d and heirs of pawllu thupa , the one inka \u201cprince\u201d to make peace , early and openly , with the europeans . pawllu had helped them through extreme difficulties , particularly almagro\u2019s invasion of chile . the efficiency of that thrust south was attributed by many to pawllu thupa\u2019s ability to mobilize the lords of charcas , the region known today as bolivia . for his services , pawllu had been allowed to keep \u201chis indians , \u201d coca - leaf terraces , food - producing fields , and much other inka wealth . a test came in 1550 at pawllu\u2019s death : various europeans attempted to deprive the \u201cindian\u2019s\u201d heirs of these lands and people , but the emperor\u2019s representative , bishop lagasca , resisted such claims . for the next two decades , pawllu\u2019s many sons were a distinguished and rich lineage in cuzco . they spoke spanish , invested in the long - distance coca - leaf trade to the mines at potos\u00ed , and employed europeans in their various enterprises . the main heir , don carlos , was married to a european woman . thirty - five years after the invasion , pawllu thupa\u2019s heirs were the one group of inkas at cuzco who had managed to hang on to both status and wealth ( glave 1991 ) .", "when toledo reached cuzco on his way to the mines at potos\u00ed , he selected pawllu\u2019s lineage for special attention . as at xauxa , the lords were ordered to these grants are transcribed from the originals in the archivo general de indias , seville : section lima , legajo

pawllu thupa\u2019s testament published in revista del archivo hist\u00f3rico del cuzco ( 1950 : 275 , 286 ) .", "litigation over the rights of \u201cnatural lords\u201d display the credentials testifying to their services to the spanish crown . the papers were publicly burned . don carlos and his kin were accused of maintaining illicit contacts with those inka who had taken refuge at vilcabamba , in the eastern lowlands ( kubler 1946 ) . some twenty of pawllu thupa\u2019s heirs were put on trial for subversion ; during the proceedings , which lasted many months , the princes were kept in animal corrals , exposed to the elements . the testimony was conducted in quechua even though many of the accused spoke spanish ; a mestizo , one gonzalo g\u00f3mez xim\u00e9nez , \u201cinterpreted\u201d for the only record kept of the proceedings , despite continuous protests by the accused . xim\u00e9nez\u2019s version of what they had \u201cconfessed\u201d became the official transcript . the \u201cnatural lords\u201d were sentenced by gabriel de loarte to the loss of \u201ctheir\u201d indians and of their coca - leaf fields , which were granted by toledo to loarte . some twenty inka , including aged princes , don carlos , and several children , were deported on foot to lima . from there they were supposed to be shipped into exile to mexico .", "of the twenty , seven survived . they were able to rally support from some of the judges at the audiencia who were hostile to the viceroy . toledo remained in the highlands for almost another decade , the only viceroy to devote such personal attention to the andean population . he sponsored many institutional innovations ; some of them were consistent with ideas to end the las casas \u201cbenevolent\u201d approach to indian affairs , which he brought with him from court . he tried to put an end to the influence of bishops ger\u00f3nimo de loaysa of lima and domingo de santo tom\u00e1s in charcas , men from another era , who spoke quechua and had earlier corresponded with las casas ( las casas 1892 ) .", "of the people toledo consulted , the best informed were two salamanca trained lawyers\u2014juan de matienzo and juan polo de ondegardo\u2014who gave him diametrically opposed advice . matienzo , a crown justice at the audiencia of charcas , was frequently active away from his court . even before toledo\u2019s arrival in 1569 , matienzo had argued for the \u201cextirpation\u201d of the inka lineage that had taken refuge in the forest at vilcabamba . the high court in lima was betting on a reduction policy , resulting in the conversion of the refugee princes and their resettlement at cuzco . matienzo thought such a policy was dangerous . resettlement expanded the number of \u201cnatural lords\u201dat cuzco\u2014a loss of revenues for the spanish crown and the threat implicit in an additional focus of traditional loyalty ( matienzo 1967 ) . after toledo\u2019s arrival , he and matienzo formed an intimate alliance broken only by the judge\u2019s death in 1579 ."]}

open nest boxes . average clutch size is 3 to 6 and incubation is about 13 days . youngsters fledge in approximately 3 weeks .", "for best results , keep a group ( at least 3 pairs and with equal numbers of cocks and hens ) of these birds together to allow the birds to choose their own partners . birds aged 1 to 4 years are best suited to breeding . newcomers to the flock may be attacked , intensely courted , and mounted , but are usually accepted before long . because they can become pugnacious while breeding , bronze - winged mannikins may be best kept in a group on their own while breeding . birds are most successfully bred in a community fashion in larger aviaries , though some may breed in cages in pairs with increased productivity .", "the various phases of the reproductive behaviour of the bronze mannikin are described in detail and discussed . this species possesses rather specialised fighting patterns which are different from those of the other estrildine finches . in an all - out attack it charges in a frontal - horizontal posture like other species , but in an equally matched bout , the contestants do not adopt the typical sleeked vertical postures of most species , but instead crouch in latero - horizontal postures . when fighting in this position , the far wing is spread and raised vertically both as a balancing device and also as a display . nesting behaviour is described and the differences between breeding and sleeping nests are discussed . the process of pair - formation is mentioned and it is pointed out that in communal species such as the present one , this is in many respects a negative process ; i . e . the narrowing down of social responses from all , to one particular member of the colony . when a male and female are paired , they begin to construct a nest together and a special ceremony takes place repeatedly in the nest cavity . this has evolved from simple nesting patterns , but is now sexual in character and may lead to copulations inside the nest . the typical precopulatory patterns are analysed in detail and it is shown that they contain a number of the ritualised components of the nest ceremony . the latter therefore provides a valuable derivational clue , linking nesting proper with pre - copulatory displays . other aspects of the male courtship , such as the dancing movements of inverted curtseying and pivoting , can be derived from intention movements of fleeing", "diet a basic finch maintenance diet will serve this rather small african mannikin well . they are hardy birds like most mannikins . a finch seed mix is fine , but these small finches will prefer the larger seeds such as large white prosso , so i actually mix 50 / 50 mix of finch mix with white prosso . in addition , they will readily eat my egg food ( roy ' s egg food ) , some gamebird crumbles and green food . soaked or sprouted paddy rice was also accepted . calcium can be provided in the form of crushed egg shell and crushed oyster shell . i have a cuttlebone available to them , but like so many mannikins , they don ' t really eat a lot of it off the bone . live food in the way of small mealworms can be offerred to the birds , but generally i like to try and raise the birds without the addition of live food whenever possible . it makes my life easier . using a few mealworms might act as a breeding trigger for these birds if they seem reluctant to start a nest .", "the clutch size ranged from 4 to 7 eggs and the incubation period was 12 - 13 days . the tiny young hatch out with little down and are pinkish in color . ( see the gape markings ) . the parents really begin to eat the eggfood when the chicks hatch and continue this voracious eating until the chicks fledge . i would leave the young with the parents for at least 3 weeks after fledging to be certain that the young are weaned . i did not see any aggression towards the young after they fledged as is seen with the rufous - back mannikin . the young fledge with a dark brown back and tan belly . the beak is solid black and there is just a hint of the throat bib ( see below ) . the parents will quite often return to nest before the first clutch is fully weaned . the male will continue to feed while the hen starts incubating the new clutch . they can be quite prolific with repeated clutches and rather large clutches of 6 - 7 young . as is always the safe recommendation , it is best not to overtax your breeders by taking more than 2 - 4 clutches .

crossed forested areas . the nests consisted of single celled bu rrows 3\u20135cm deep ( n = 15 ) , with a narrower entrance tunnel 5\u201310mm in height ( n = 5 ) . in cross section , the cells were circular with 12\u201315mm ( n = 8 ) in diameter , and the entrance tunnels were elliptical , the major axis with 9\u201312mm ( n = 16 ) and the minor axis with 6 . 5\u20138 . 5mm ( n = 16 ) . females usually appeared on the nesting site between 8 : 00\u201310 : 00 hrs and ceased activity from 16 : 00\u201318 : 00 hrs . they commonly remained rested on the ground at sites exposed to the sun before initiating activity , presumably to warm up .", "females selecting a nest site initially walked on the ground antennating the soil . they initially dug in several sites , and inspected crevices and other soil irregularities with their mandibles . occasionally they entered nests of conspecific females or , more rarely , the nests of other ground - nesting wasp species . usually , the females dug a number of short burrows before digging a nest . they did not close these abandoned tentative burrows .", "when digging a nest a female penepodium luteipenne cut the soil with her mandibles , accumulating lumps of earth in their mouthparts . she then stepped aside about 2\u20134 cm and tossed the earth a short distance with a flip of her head . a female would dig from opposite sides on the same axis . after digging for a few minutes on one side , she turned 180\u00b0 and continued the excavation on the opposite side . the excavated earth thus formed two semi - circular mounds around the nest entrance ( fig . 1 ) . females periodically interrupted their excavations and left to gather water , which they regurgitated on the excavation site , apparently to soften the earth .", "nesting behaviour of penepodium luteipenne 1 digging of the nest , the accumulated lose earth around the nest entrance is the earth excavated from the burrow 2 stinging of the prey 3 oviposition ( setae in the wasp\u2019s front leg ) 4 placement of the prey into the nest 5 female pushing a prey stuck in the nest entrance , using both the front and mid legs , and the opened mandibles .", "female penepodium luteipenne commonly reused pre - existing burrows . these almost always were old nests of conspecific females . the females usually found the old nests partially filled with earth , the remains of prey , and an empty cocoon . they spent some time excavating the burrows to recondition them . although it was not possible to securely define the frequency of reuse of pre - existing burrows during this study , i estimate at least 25 % of the observed nests were reused nests of conspecifics , and quite possibly more . reused nests were recognisable because remains of cockroaches and the characteristic cocoons of penepodium luteipenne ( see buys 2001 , 2009 for cocoon morphology ) were found in the mounds of excavated earth left around the entrance .", "brood parasitism in open nests was observed twice . in the first case the female entered the nest of another female while she was absent and found prey items . she reacted quickly , moving her body and antennae , and performed the following behavioural sequence : ( 1 ) grasped one cockroach with her mandibles , ( 2 ) pulled the cockroach outside the burrow , ( 3 ) stung it , ( 4 ) ate the egg of the host wasp , ( 5 ) laid her egg on the prey , ( 6 ) reinserted the cockroach into the nest and ( 7 ) departed . the host female later closed the nest apparently without perceiving the violation of her nest .", "in the second case , the female followed the same behavioural sequence described above , but differed in that when she checked the base of the forelegs of the prey taken from the nest she did not find an egg of the host female , she laid her own egg on the prey and departed . later the host female arrived at the nest with one more prey item and oviposited on it . the parasitized nest was thus left with two prey items bearing eggs .", "brood parasitism in closed nests was observed three times . the cleptoparasitic females found recently closed , provisioned nests of other females . they opened the nest plug and followed the same behavioural sequence described above for brood parasitism in open nests ( inclusive of eating the host egg ) , with the additional step that the cleptoparasitic female closed the nest herself .", "the prey items from 64 nests were collected : 31 nests with one prey item , 23 nests with two prey items , seven nests with three prey items , and three nests with four prey items . a total of 109 epilamprine cockroaches ( blattodea : blaberidae ) was collected from the nests : 19 adults of poeciloderrhis catharina ( shelford , 1910 ) ; 10 adults of poeciloderrhis basistriga ( walker , 1868 ) ; five adults of poeciloderrhis sp . ; 69 nymphs probably of poeciloderrhis catharina ; and six nymphs probably of poeciloderrhis basistriga . morphometric features taken from live prey items are summarized table 1 .", "length , width and biomass of prey species found in nests of penepodium luteipenne ( minimum , mean and maximum in millimetre ) .", "the duration of the effects of the wasp\u2019s venom on its prey was relatively brief as cockroaches collected from nests just after closure were able to walk . although the prey items transported by females apparently are always under the effect of its venom , suggesting that they sting the prey during the hunt , a female commonly stung again its prey at the nest site before placing it into the burrow . when stinging its prey a female grasped the pronotum of the cockroach with her mandibles , and stung the roach in different points on the ventral surface of its body ( fig . 2 ) . small prey specimens were immediately paralysed after the sting but females frequently needed to repeatedly sting larger prey items to subdue them before ovipositing on their body and placing them in the nest .", "during nest closure a female made 10\u201313 flights ( n = 15 ) to gather water . each load of water was used to wet 4\u20138 lumps of earth ( n = 15 ) . after the nest plug became level with the surface of the ground , the females usually added smaller lumps of earth , which they did not wet , and then placed over the nest entrance fallen leaves , chips , small stones , lumps of dried earth or other debris collected near to the nest . this made the nest entrance visually indistinguishable from the surrounding soil . on one occasion , a female regurgitated a few drops of water soon after concluding the nest closure , apparently to discard excess water . females never made temporary nest closures . some nests remained open through the night despite containing prey items .", "females of penepodium luteipenne drove away other insects , both those walking within about 20\u201330 cm of the nests , and flies hovering over the nest entrance , throughout the nesting cycle . females with open mandibles aggressively charged small objects ( such as a stylus ) placed near open nests . however , females did not defend nests after closing them . several times nests were excavated to collect the prey items immediately after closure and the nearby female did not react .", "the prey species and number of prey items per nest in the tribe podiini is summarized in the table ii . as a rule , podiini use cockroaches to provision their nests , but crickets ( orthoptera : gryllidae ) were reported as prey of trigonopsis grylloctonus richards , 1937 ( richards 1937 : unidentified grylids ) and trigonopsis rufiventris ( fabricius , 1804 ) ( vardy 1978 : anaxipha sp . ) ( table 2 ) . females of the genera penepodium and dynatus , in general , use larger prey species than females of the genera podium and trigonopsis ( table 2 ) .", "summary of prey species and number of prey items per nest in species of the tribe podiini .", "penepodium luteipenne is similar to some other podiini who do not construct temporary nest plugs [ penepodium haematogastrum ( spinola , 1851 ) : williams 1928 ; podium rufipes fabricius , 1805 : krombein 1970 ] . however , some other podiini have been observed constructing temporary nest closures when nest provisioning is not completed in one day [ trigonopsis cameronii ( kohl , 1902 ) : eberhard 1974 ; podium denticulatum f . smith , 1856 : ribeiro and gar\u00f3falo 2010 ] . penepodium luteipenne leave their nests open even on occasions when provisioning is not completed in one day .", "temporary paralysis of prey , as described here for penepodium luteipenne , has been observed in several previously studied species of the genus [ penepodium fumipenne ( taschenberg , 1869 ) : genise 1981 ; penepodium gorianum ( lepeletier de saint fargeau , 1845 ) : garcia and adis 1993 ; penepodium latro ( kohl , 1902 ) : buys 2006 ; and amazonian penepodium luteipenne : williams 1928 ] . however , species of podium and trigonopsis seem to more permanently paralyze their prey ( podium fulvipes cresson , 1865 : genaro 1994 ; podium luctuosum smith , 1856 : krombein 1967 ; podium rufipes : krombein 1967 , 1970 ; and trigonopsis cameronii : eberhard 1974 ) .", "oviposition on the first prey item stored in the nest has been observed among most of the podiini studied to date ( penepodium gorianum : garcia and adis 1993 ; podium denticulatum : ribeiro and gar\u00f3falo 2010 ; podium rufipes : krombein 1970 ; and trigonospis cameronii : eberhard 1974 ) . only penepodium luteipenne , in this study , and the amazonian penepodium luteipenne studied by williams ( 1928 ) , oviposit on the last hunted prey item .", "the stereotypic oviposition posture observed in penepodium luteipenne is similar to that of penepodium haematogastrum , as illustrated by williams ( 1928 : fig . 188 ) , and of trigonospis cameronii , as illustrated by eberhard ( 1974 : fig . 4 ) . however , the prey items used by trigonopsis cameronii are much smaller than those used by penepodium luteipenne and penepodium haematogastrum , and it uses only its front legs to hold its prey ( see eberhard 1974 : fig . 4 ) .", "penepodium luteipenne , as well as other podiini ( amazonian penepodium luteipenne : williams 1928 , trigonopsis cameronii : eberhard 1974 ) , is distinct in ovipositing on its prey outside the nest . an exception was observed by ribeiro and gar\u00f3falo ( 2010 ) who found that podium denticulatum oviposited sometimes before and sometimes after placing its prey in the nest . the behaviour of ovipositing outside the nest may be due to the lack of space inside the nest such that the female cannot assume the characteristic oviposition posture necessary for her to oviposit on a forecoxa of her prey .", "placement of the prey headfirst into the nest as observed in penepodium luteipenne , was also found in all previously studied species of podiini ( penepodium gorianum : garcia and adis 1993 ; podium denticulatum : camillo et al . 1996 ; podium fulvipes : genaro 1994 ; podium rufipes : krombein 1970 ; podium luctuosum : krombein 1967 ; and trigonopsis cameronii : eberhard 1974 ) . in penepodium luteipenne , the position of the prey inside the nest , coupled with the elliptical shape of the nest opening tunnel , which is narrower than the cell , apparently aids in preventing the cockroaches from escaping from the open nests after waking from paralysis .", "intraspecific parasitism has been recorded for relatively few species of sphecid wasps ( review in field 1992b , see also bohart and menke 1976 ) . however , as more detailed behavioural studies are performed on sphecid wasps , including observations with individually marked females , a number of distinct types of intraspecific parasitism have been found . intraspecific parasitism may be widespread among sphecids , but it currently remains veiled by the paucity of studies . this seems to be the case for the tribe podiini , in which distinct types of intraspecific parasitism were observed in penepodium luteipenne and trigonopsis cameroni , two species with detailed studies including individually marked females .",

moving streams the yellowcheek darter was displaced from much of its former range , moving upstream to less suitable areas of habitat . the species\u2019 migratory behaviour was also disrupted , while the loss of downstream refugia made the species more vulnerable to droughts , resulting in the loss of many populations ( 7 ) . other threats , such as the channelization of streams for agriculture and human consumption , have isolated some populations , and a loss of genetic diversity has been observed due to inbreeding ( 3 ) ( 8 ) .", "wine , m . s . , weston , m . r . and johnson , r . l .

lundberg et al . 2000 ) . darters are classified as etheostomatinae , which is a subclade of percidae . in addition to etheostomatinae , two other major freshwater clades with holarctic distributions , percinae and luciopercinae , comprise percidae . however , neither percinae nor luciopercinae contains more than 10 species ( collette and banarescu 1977 ;

page 1974 ; 1981 ) . the rich history of darter taxonomy is reflected in the scores of group names that have been introduced over the past two centuries ( collette and knapp 1966 ; collette 1967 ) . previous attempts to codify darter taxonomy have delimited groups of darter species using the available group names as ranked genera and subgenera ( e . g . , jordan and evermann 1896 , p . 1015\u20131105 ;

dunham and miles 1985 ) . species data were pooled into clustered groups of genera , groups of subgenera , and subgenera for the analysis of covariance . however , 8 of the 15 polytypic subgenera sampled in the study of bart and page ( 1992 ) are not monophyletic in our phylogenetic analyses . thus , the variance in life history variables explained by the taxonomic nesting in bart and page ( 1992 ) was calculated incorrectly , and as a result , the data need reevaluation in the context of our revised understanding of darter phylogeny .", "we recommend that ammocrypta , crystallaria , etheostoma , nothonotus , and percina continue to be used as the primary clade names with species epithets . the other clade names highlight phylogenetically related groups of species and will find validity in discussions of character diversity , biogeography , and ecological differences . in addition , the phylogenetic classification and the clade names will provide a comparative basis with which to investigate the ecology and evolutionary biology of darters in a way that was not possible with the previous darter classifications because the classifications did not consistently delimit monophyletic groups of species .", "we were able to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of nearly all extant darter species , while avoiding inference pathologies stemming from incomplete taxon sampling ( e . g . , heath et al . 2008 ) . complete taxon sampling , however , does not resolve issues relating to character sampling ; more characters are generally required to resolve phylogenies that contain a moderate to high number of terminal taxa ( e . g . , bremer et al . 1999 ) . because the darter radiation was expected to contain a mixture of lineages with a fairly recent time since common ancestry and lineages with a much older common ancestor , we aimed to assess if a modest data set of mitochondrial and nuclearencoded gene sequences could result in well - resolved and congruent phylogenetic hypotheses for the clade . the analyses of the two sampled nuclear genes result in an appreciable degree of phylogenetic resolution among closely related species . however , our analyses do substantiate commonly held conceptions in molecular systematics that faster evolving genes provide phylogenetic resolution and clade support for younger nodes in the tree , whereas slower evolving genes are able to provide support for deeper nodes in the phylogeny ( fig . 5 ) .", "recent phylogenetic analyses of darter subclades have revealed instances of mtdna introgression that range from a few sampled individuals exhibiting heterospecific mtdna genomes to species with complete mtdna genome replacement by heterospecific haplotypes ( bossu and near 2009 ; heckman et al . 2009 ; keck and near 2010 ) . in comparing the phylogenies inferred from mtdna with those inferred from the nuclear genes , we noted a number of topological differences that are likely the result of mtdna introgression . the frequency of mtdna introgression was noted , and mtdna haplotypes that were identified as resulting from introgression were scored as missing data in the bayesian phylogenetic analyses of combined mtdna and nuclear gene data sets .", "as the architecture of the deepest parts of the tree of life become articulated through analyses of ever larger genomic - scale data sets , the challenges of resolving relationships among the most closely related branches and twigs remain . the history of investigating phylogenetic relationships among closely related animal species using molecular data is dominated by the use of mtdna . zoological systematists had been reluctant to explore the use of single - copy nuclear proteincoding genes for closely related lineages because mtdna sequences consistently provided substantial phylogenetic resolution . our investigation of darter phylogenetics based on the near - complete species sampling of a species - rich clade results in several important conclusions : 1 ) the sampling of a modest data set of nuclear genes results in appreciable phylogenetic resolution among closely related species ; 2 ) mtdna introgression in darters is extensive and complicated by the presence of at least three distinct phylogenetic patterns ; 3 ) resolved phylogenetic hypotheses for darters allow the construction of an informative phylogeny - based classification ; and 4 ) strategies of external calibration result in consistent relaxed - clock age estimates for clades across different genes and calibration methods . the results of our analyses provide critical insights in the pattern and timing of darter diversification , but perhaps more importantly , these analyses offer a prospectus for the use of nuclear gene sequence data to resolve the most closely related portions of the animal tree of life .", "in order to determine whether genes that exhibited differing rates of nucleotide substitution provided resolved and significantly supported nodes at different time depths in the phylogeny , the posterior probability clade support values were plotted against the estimated age of the node . only interspecific nodes in the gene trees were scored . the posterior probabilities of clade support were extracted from the mrbayes posterior tree files by adding all compatible groups to the standard 50 % majorityrule consensus trees using the \u201callcompat\u201d option in the mrbayes \u201csumt\u201d command . only nodes that were present in both the beast and the mrbayes sets of posterior trees were recorded . there was substantial congruence among the tree topologies inferred from the mrbayes and beast analyses ; however , there were a few differences that involved the youngest clades in the darter phylogeny .", "there has been a dramatic increase in the number of recognized darter species since the listing of 129 species in page ' s monographic treatment of the clade ; the increase to 248 species represents nearly a doubling of the number of recognized species over the past 25 years ( table 1 ) . this increase in the recognized species diversity of darters is the result of the discovery of previously unknown or unrecognized species ( e . g . , page et al . 2003 ; page and near 2007 ; layman and mayden 2009 ; switzer and wood 2009 ) , resurrecting species from synonymy ( e . g . , etnier and starnes 1986 ; near 2008 ) , and recognition of species formerly ranked as subspecies ( e . g . , etnier and williams 1989 ; piller et al . 2001 ; robins and page 2007 ) .", "phylogeny of darters inferred from a partitioned bayesian analysis of a combined data set consisting of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene ( cytb ) , the nuclear s 7 ribosomal protein intron 1 gene ( s 7 ) , and the nuclear recombination activating gene 1 exon 3 ( rag1 ) . the sequences for cytochrome b for species with heterospecific mitochondrial genomes were removed prior to the analysis . filled black circles identify clades supported with a bayesian posterior of 1 . 00 , and unfilled circles identify clades with bayesian posterior support that ranges between 0 . 95 and 0 . 99 . the shaded portion of the phylogeny at the top of the figure indicates placement of clades in the darter phylogeny . asterisks connect disconnected branches in the phylogeny . the phylogeny is presented in three parts , labeled ( a ) , ( b ) , and ( c ) .", "there were three instances of deep introgression observed in the darter phylogeny , two of which involved the clades oligocephalus and psychromaster ( fig . 1 and table 4 ) . when comparing the phylogeny of these lineages inferred from the two nuclear genes with the cytb gene tree , two separate introgression events were detected . there was an mtdna transfer event from a lineage related to the extant species of psychromaster into the common ancestral lineage of vexillapinna , boleichthys , austroperca , and astatichthys . a second deep introgression event involved the transfer of mtdna originating from an oligocephalus lineage into the common ancestor of e . punctulatum , e . autumnale , and e . mihileze . in both cases , there has been species diversification in these lineages subsequent to the transfer and fixation of the heterospecific mtdna ; however , the phylogenetic affinities of these lineages in the mtdna gene tree are dramatically obscured by the deep introgression .", "the other two species with heterospecific mtdna labeled as examples of indeterminate mtdna introgression may also be considered to harbor mitochondrial fossils ( table 4 ) . for example , the phylogenetic relationships of e . cinereum have long intrigued darter systematists ( bailey and gosline 1955 ; page and whitt 1973b ; page 1977 ; bailey and etnier 1988 ; dimmick and page 1992 ) , and the phylogenetic analyses of mtdna sequences have resulted in the placement of this species distantly related to other etheostoma lineages and more closely related to carnipellucida , percina , or nothonotus ( song et al . 1998 ; sloss et al . 2004 ; mayden et al . 2006 ; lang and mayden 2007 ) . our analyses of the two sampled nuclear genes place e . cinereum in the etheostoma subclade simoperca , a result consistent with the previous analyses of nuclear gene dna sequences and allozymes ( wood and mayden 1997 ; lang and mayden 2007 ; bossu and near 2009 ) .", "our phylogenetic analyses of cytb and the two sampled nuclear genes indicate that 31 species , comprising more than 12 % of all darter species ( tables 1 and 4 ) , exhibit some degree of mitochondrial introgression , which ranges from complete replacement to an appreciable frequency of sampled individuals with heterospecific mtdna genomes . as in the previous investigations of boleosoma and nothonotus , we found no introgression of the two examined autosomal ( nuclear ) loci in any of the species exhibiting mtdna introgression ( heckman et al . 2009 ; keck and near 2010 ) . three different patterns of mtdna transfer were observed in our phylogenetic trees . among the 13 detected mtdna introgression events in darters , 8 involved proximal mtdna transfer ( table 4 ) . this pattern is detected by reference to a phylogeny that shows the phylogenetic nesting of haplotypes sampled from the recipient lineage in the donor lineage clade . these introgressed haplotypes may be fixed in the recipient lineage or show variation in the degree of introgression among geographic populations , and the introgressed haplotypes in the recipient lineage may be identical or very similar to those observed in the donor lineage ( fig . 1 ) .", "divergence times were estimated using an uncorrelated lognormal ( ucln ) model of molecular evolutionary rate heterogeneity implemented in the computer program beast v . 1 . 53 ( drummond et al . 2006 ; drummond and rambaut 2007 ) . data sets used in the mrbayes analyses were pruned to contain only one specimen per sampled species in the ucln analyses . the optimal molecular evolutionary models were identified using aic , partitioning schemes were assessed using bayes factor comparisons , and the ucln model was implemented in beast to estimate the posterior density of divergence times . a birthdeath speciation prior was used for the branching rates in the phylogeny . five sets of relaxed - clock analyses were performed . divergence times were estimated using the centrarchid fossil calibrations and alignments of darters and centrarchids for each of the proteincoding cytb and rag1 genes . the centrarchid fossil calibrations were not used to estimate divergence times in darters for the s 7 intron 1 locus because substantial divergence between darters and centrarchids makes alignment of this locus problematic . the posterior densities of centrarchid molecular evolutionary rates estimated from alignments that contained only centrarchid species were used as priors in the analyses of darter alignments from each of the three genes ( cytb , s 7 , and rag1 ) .", "scores of colleagues either directly contributed specimens for this study or facilitated our fieldwork . in particular , we thank h . l . bart , b . h . bauer , a . c . bentley , g . r dinkins , b . j . freeman , m . c . freeman , g . hogue , r . e . johansen , r . l . mayden , l . m . page , k . r . piller , b . a . porter , s . l . powers , m . e . raley , r . h . robins , a . m . simons , w . c starnes , e . o . wiley , and r . m . wood . our views on darter phylogeny were shaped through discussions with h . l . bart , b . h . bauer , m . j . donoghue , a . dornburg , b . r moore , t . c . mendelson , l . m . page , k . r . piller , and r . m . strange . b . j . kendrick provided assistance in the laboratory . g . watkins - cowell and j . p . joice provided assistance with museum collections . we thank k . de queiroz and r . e . glor for valuable comments on earlier versions of our manuscript .", "there are considerable challenges to estimating divergence times using molecular data because of the near - ubiquitous presence of among - lineage molecular evolutionary rate heterogeneity and the need for external age calibration information ( sanderson 1998 ) . unfortunately , the fossil record for darters is poor and offers no information to provide minimal age constraints for nodes in molecular phylogenies ( ossian 1973 ; smith 1981 ; cavender 1986 , cavender 1998 ) . although the fossil record for non - darter percids ( e . g . , perca and sander ) extends to the early miocene , the morphological features preserved in these fossils do not permit the phylogenetic placement of the taxa relative to extant percid species ( svetovidov and dorofeeva 1963 ; cziczer et al . 2009 ; murray et al . 2009 ) . previous analyses of molecular divergence times in darters have used external fossil calibrations from the percoid clade centrarchidae ( near and benard 2004 ; near and keck 2005 ; carlson et al . 2009 ; hollingsworth and near 2009 ) . centrarchid fishes are classified in the same taxonomic order as darters ( nelson 2006 ) and have a rich fossil record that has been used to calibrate molecular phylogenies . there is also a substantial set of comparative molecular data sets available for this clade ( near et al . 2003 , near et al . 2004 , near , bolnick , et al . 2005 ) .", "emerald darters spawn in late april and early may . though actual spawning has not been observed , attempts by males to mate include swimming from side to side over the female\u2019s back . further , males have been observed in the wild trying to mount unresponsive females from behind or from the side . emerald darter larvae usually measure 4 . 5 to 6 . 0 mm in length and emerge from the egg with yolk sacs still attached . water temperature has a direct correlation with juvenile development , with warmer water temperatures resulting in a faster development and smaller sizes . warmer temperatures can have even more detrimental effects on populations . warmer temperatures in the later weeks of the breeding season can cause females to reabsorb their eggs and become unreceptive . spawning occurs in the center of riffles . larger males place themselves in pools near the middle of these turbulent areas so they will have a higher probability of encountering more females , which tend to use these areas . emerald darters prefer gravel substrates that lack silt . eggs and sperm are released simultaneously through mutual vibration and are attached by the female directly onto the gravel substrate . [ 7 ] emerald darters generally average 36 offspring per year . most captured emerald darters have been aged at up to three years old . in the red river drainage , 53 % of the population survived its second year , while only 7 . 7 % survived the third . third - year individuals were predominantly male .", "the classification of darters has historically been characterized by the recognition of genera and subgenera that were assumed to represent monophyletic groups of species ( page 1981 , page 1983 ; bailey and etnier 1988 ; etnier and starnes 1993 ; boschung and mayden 2004 ) . because we are able to present well - resolved and strongly supported phylogenies based on mtdna and nuclear genes that are , with a few exceptions , generally in agreement with one another , we developed a phylogeny - based classification of darters that follows the principles of phylogenetic nomenclature described in the phylocode ( de queiroz and gauthier 1990 , de queiroz and gauthier 1992 , de queiroz and gauthier 1994 ; cantino and de queiroz 2009 ) . we attempted to preserve the nomenclatural history of group names by retaining preexisting names for clades when they exist ( e . g . , collette and knapp 1966 ) and by providing new names for clades that have never had formal names applied . we based our decision to name a clade on both its diagnosability and the need to communicate the clade in comparative and taxonomic studies ( e . g . , cantino et al . 2007 ) . thus , not all well - supported clades in the darter phylogenies were named . in addition , the clade names were given phylogenetic definitions that can only be applied in the context of a given phylogeny , and clades were identified by reference to a branch or a node in the phylogeny ( de queiroz and gauthier 1990 , de queiroz and gauthier 1992 ) .", "comparison of posterior node ages estimated using external centrarchid fossil calibrations and those estimated using external rate calibrations reveals slight differences in the posterior age estimates between the two strategies . although there were no significant differences in the posterior node heights estimated by the two calibration strategies , fossil - calibrated ages were on average younger for the cytb chronogram and older for the rag1 chronogram relative to those estimated using external rate calibrations ( table 3 ) . this slight difference in node ages between the fossil and rate calibration analyses may be due to a difference in the width of the prior distribution of the rate calibrations , which are modeled on the posterior distributions of rate estimates from the centrarchid - only beast analyses ( table 2 ) . the prior distribution of the mean rate of the cytb gene was much wider than that of the rag1 gene . in the rate calibration analysis , the sampling of rates within this prior distribution may be limited relative to the sampling of rates in the fossil - calibrated analysis for rag1 . for the cytb rate calibration analysis , the converse may be true : a wide posterior on rates implies a wider sampling of rate variation relative to the rates sampled in the fossil calibration analysis . the assessment of posterior ages resulting from fossil - based versus rate calibration should therefore ideally consider the density of fossil calibration and the disparity in the credible intervals of the individual genes in the analysis . however , our analyses of darter divergence times using external centrarchid calibrations demonstrate promising consistency in posterior ages estimated using fossil and rate calibrations ."]}

all remaining genera are recovered as valid and monophyletic . the general relationships between mochokid genera are illustrated in the phylogeny below .", "dating of the major cladogenetic events in synodontis with r8s . we ran three independent analyses in r8s [ 32 ] with different calibration points using the maximum estimated age for the lacustrine habitat in lakes malawi ( 1 my [ 49 ] ) and tanganyika ( 6 my [ 46\u201348 ] ) , as well as the minimum age of the east african clade of synodontis as suggested by the oldest known synodontis fossil in that region ( > 20 my [ 45 ] ) . in the first analysis , all three calibrations were applied ( 1 / 6 / 20 calibration ) ; in the second cycle , we used the lake malawi and the fossil calibration ( 1 / 20 calibration ) ; in the third round , we only used the fossil based calibration ( 20 calibration ) . the numbers indicate the average value ( in my ) obtained from a bootstrap approach with 30 replicates , the minimum and maximum values are depicted in round brackets ( in italics ) . square brackets indicate the time constraints used for the different r8s analyses and the range of the actual numbers used in the bootstrap replicates ( in round brackets ) . the estimates for the age of the entire genus synodontis should be interpreted with caution , as the values lie outside our range of calibration points", "even more peculiar is the habit of some species of synodontis that are known to swim upside - down . this habit seems to be correlated with feeding while upside - down at the water\u2019s surface ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1965b ) , but upside - down catfishes will rest and swim in the inverted position on a regular basis . chapman et al . ( 1994 ) showed that an upside - down posture near the surface also facilitates respiration in poorly oxygenated water . while the genus synodontis presents the most well - known species with their fascinating behaviors and natural histories , the family is actually much more interesting when taken as a whole .", "synodontis ricardoae seegers 1996 in honor of cicely kate ricardo ( later ricardo - bertram , 1912 - 1999 ) , who , together with ms . r . j . owen , collected in the lake rukwa drainage ( where this species occurs ) and co - authored several important papers on the fishes of east and central africa", "beyond information gleaned from captive breeding of certain species of synodontis , very little is known about reproduction in mochokids . the best studied mochokids in this regard are most likely nile river synodontis ( including s . membranacea and s . batensoda , previously placed in other genera ) . still , details are limited ; the studies indicate that spawning occurs from july to october , which coincides with the flooding season , and that pairs swim in unison during spawning bouts ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1968 ) . the most interesting and detailed information on mochokid reproduction relates to a species from lake tanganyika , synodontis multipunctatus , which is a brood parasite of mouth brooding cichlids such as simochromis and haplochromis ( sato , 1986 ; wisenden , 1999 ) . adults of this species spawn in the midst of spawning cichlids and the fertilized catfish eggs are taken into the mouth of a cichlid . the catfish eggs hatch first and will eat the host eggs before they leave the host mouth . most amazingly , this species has been able to parasitize mouth brooding cichlids from south america in captivity ( loiselle , 1998 ) .", "our analyses reveal the existence of six major lineages of synodontis in east africa that diversified about 20 mya from a central and / or west african ancestor . the six lineages show a clear geographic patterning . two lineages are endemic to lake tanganyika ( plus one non - endemic representative ) , and these are the only two synodontis lineages that diversified further into a small array of species . one of these species is the cuckoo catfish ( s . multipunctatus ) , a unique brood parasite of mouthbrooding haplochromine cichlids , which seems to have evolved in parallel with the radiation of its cichlid host lineage , the tropheini . we also detect an accelerated rate of molecular evolution in s . multipunctatus , which might be the consequence of co - evolutionary dynamics .", "based largely on coloration and pattern some scientists and aquarists have recognized \u2018species flocks\u2019 of synodontis . the largest and most visually impressive of these is the lake tanganyika synodontis species flock . the flock consists of at least six species , all endemic to the lake , that show amazingly similar coloration and patterning . recent work suggests that this \u2018flock\u2019 is not monophyletic and that the biogeographic scenario is more complicated than a simple radiation after lake formation ( day & wilkinson , 2006 ; koblmuller et al . , 2006 ) . regardless , in this group of species , the nearly constant color pattern consists of a light brown base color and darker brown polka - dots . it is made more impressive by the fins , which have dark brown membranes basally and stark white trailing edges . the cryptic nature of lake tanganyika synodontis has led to an underestimate of the actual number of species present ( wright & page , 2006 ) ;

shaped , open - ended silken cases that are about 3 / 8 inch long , often with pieces of infested material incorporated into the case . the case containing a live larva is often attached to the infested material at on end .", "pheromone traps , discussed below in trapping , are also very useful for detecting clothes moths .", "periodically cleaning areas in your home that can harbor clothes moths can prevent or control infestations . these areas include seldom - cleaned spots such as beneath heavy pieces of furniture ; along baseboards and in cracks where hair and debris accumulate ; in closets , especially those in which woolens and furs are kept ; and inside and behind heaters and inside vents .", "the vacuum cleaner is the best tool for most of this cleaning . after using it in infested areas , dispose of the bag ' s contents promptly , since it can include eggs , larvae , or adult moths .", "clothes moths might initially establish themselves on woolen garments or scraps stored for long periods . in addition to properly storing woolen items ( see protecting items in storage . ) , periodically hang them in the sun and brush them thoroughly , especially along seams and inside folds and pockets . brushing destroys eggs and exposes larvae . larvae don ' t like bright light and will fall from clothing when they can ' t find protection .", "if the infestation is in a closet , be sure to remove and clean all clothes and fabric that were stored inside and thoroughly vacuum and wash the inside of the closet , especially all cracks and crevices , before returning the cleaned clothes . dust insecticides containing pyrethroids or pyrethrin ( e . g . , 0 . 05 % deltamethrin or 1 % pyrethrin ) can be applied in the cracks and crevices . always follow the label requirements when applying these dusts .", "the most common and effective method for killing all stages of clothes moths in clothing , blankets , and other washable articles is to thoroughly launder them for 20 to 30 minutes in water that is at least 120\u00b0f . because many woolen items shouldn ' t be washed in hot water , sending your items to a dry cleaner might be the only suitable option . keeping fabrics clean has another advantage\u2014insects are less likely to feed on clean fabrics than on heavily soiled ones .", "clothes moths often damage improperly stored articles . when storing susceptible items , be sure they are clean and pest free , and place them in an airtight container . you can place insect repellents such as herbal oils into the storage container , but little is known about their effectiveness .", "moth balls , flakes , or crystals containing 1 , 4 - dichlorobenzene ( also called paradichlorobenzene ) also are available for protecting clothes in storage . because these materials are toxic , be sure to keep them away from children and pets . these products have other shortcomings as well . they leave an unpleasant odor on clothes and other cloth objects , and if these products come into contact with plastic buttons , hangers , or garment bags , they can cause the plastic to soften and melt into the fabric .", "as these chemicals evaporate , they produce vapors that , in sufficient concentration , will slowly kill insects . the vapors build up to the required concentration only in an airtight container . if the container isn ' t airtight , the chemicals only somewhat repel adults , and any larvae already on clothes continue to feed .", "the effectiveness of cedar chests and closet floors made of cedar is debatable . aromatic eastern red cedar , juniperus virginiana , contains an oil that can kill small larvae , but it doesn ' t affect large larvae . after several years , however , cedar loses this quality . having a tightly constructed chest is more important in the long run than the type of wood used to make it .", "you can also control clothes moths by heating the infested item in an oven for at least 30 minutes at temperatures higher than 120\u00b0f , enclosing the item in a plastic bag and placing it in a freezer for several days at temperatures lower than 18\u00b0f , or fumigating the item with dry ice . before using any of these methods , consider if cold or heat will damage the fabric . for more information , see the household furnishings section .", "trapping is a relatively easy -

gallon capacity , a 1 / 2 - to 1 - pound piece of dry ice should be adequate . seal the bag loosely at the top until all of the dry ice has vaporized ; this will allow the air to escape and keep the bag from bursting . when the dry ice is gone , tighten the seal , and let the bag sit for three or four days . proper fumigation gives quick , satisfactory control and kills all stages of clothes moths , although it doesn ' t prevent reinfestation .", "sometimes felts and hammers in pianos become infested and so badly damaged that it seriously affects the tone and action of the instrument . contact a piano technician , who might recommend synthetic felt replacements .", "mallis , a . 2011 . handbook of pest control , 10th ed . richfield , ohio : gie media inc ."]}

territory ranges from 350 to 400 hectares . foraging is carried out in the open areas whereas they spend a major portion of their time in trees . in fact , it has been found that the southern tamanduas spend 60 % of their entire time either foraging in trees or resting among branches . they usually find shelter in hollow trees and in the absence of proper tree hollows , they might also use abandoned ground holes as shelters .", "an adaptable species , southern tamanduas can be found in forests , savannas , tropical rainforests , scrub forests , and mangroves , but most commonly occur near streams and rivers . they have been documented at elevations reaching 6 , 500 feet ( 2 , 000 meters ) . when they are not active , tamanduas commonly shelter in tree hollows .", "the adult tamandua\u2019s body length is between 13 and 35 inches ( 33 - 88 cm ) ; with a prehensile tail , which means it can grasp things , of about 15 to 26 inches ( 38 - 66 cm ) ; and it weighs between 3 - 18 pounds ( 1 . 5 - 18 . 5 kg ) . the tamandua anteater is mainly nocturnal , but actively hunts for bees , termites , and ants to eat when it is awake .", "they also must be wormed soon as you get them . due to their lack of stomach acid they are very prone to intestinal parasites and stress causes them to come out a proliferate . tamandua often die from internal parasites , especially", "for an indoor tamandua a cat tree would be good . mine does enjoy the cat condo from time to time . i would advise it not being allowed much unsupervised access as fiber can come loose from clawing and be hazardous .", "tamandua mexicana has no defined breeding season . however , it is commonly observed that the male finds a mate in the fall and the female gives birth to one offspring in the spring . the females\u2019 gestations period lasts from 130 - 190 days . the young tamandua initially stays in the shelter of a hollow tree , but later clings and is carried on their mothers back . the young stay with their mother until one year of age before entering life on their own .", "southern tamanduas have short dense fur . their coat color varies depending on where they live . in the south , they have bold dark markings over their shoulders and back , while the rest of their bodies range from brown to blond . in the north and west , they may have lighter markings or be a solid color\u2014black , brown or blond\u2014and have no markings .", "if one wants to feed a formulated food . i know of a reportedly 22 year old tamandua who was fed termants bu mazuri his whole life . it still uses a lot of corn products but obviously manages to meet their needs quite well .", "tamandua tetradactyla is found in south america east of the andes from columbia , venezuela , trinidad , and the guianas ,

general information about the mailing list is available at", "the tamandua tetradactyla inhabits the forested regions of south america , including venezuela , northern argentina , trinidad and the eastern part of the andes . their habitat varies from dry grasslands to temperate rainforests , thorn shrubs and savannas . they are found commonly near rivers and streams with many vines .", "healthy tamanduas are thought to have a captive lifespan of about 9 - 11yrs . tamandua mexican has a lifespan of 16 so tamandua tetradactyla could well be similar with real quality care as the info on life span is limited and based on cases before care and diet were improved with studies . their normal temp is about 93 . 6f give or take a little . tamanduas generally respond well to canine medications when needed . try to find a good vet that can get inflo from a zoo vet . there are some medicinces like certain antibiotics that should not be given .", "tamanduas are highly beneficial for people in the amazon , who use them to clear their homes from insects such as ants and termites that are primary prey species of these animals . moreover , many local zoo and safari parks offer their visitors to purchase a tamandua for the above mentioned reason .", "a good dealer will make sure yours is healthy and eating before you get it but you need to be prepared . some remain picky . it could be a few days after arrival before a tamandua will first eat in a new home so you don ' t need to panic right away .", "as the southern tamanduas are not seen commonly around human settlements they are not depicted in cultural human societies as the giant anteater is , which is terrestrial by nature and seen more frequently than the tamanduas . however , tamanduas often get killed by hunters for their thick tendons present in their tail which is used in making rope . besides this , some amazonian indians capture tamanduas and take them to their homes in order to rid themselves from ants and termites .", "the first southern tamandua maintained in a north american collection was an individual ( of unknown sex ) imported in 1883 ; the animal was housed at the philadelphia zoo . longevity data indicate that the species may live as long as 20 + years . the oldest living animals are a female at houston zoo ( studbook # 243 , at 11 . 7 years of age ) and a male at sacramento zoo ( studbook # 181 , at 18 . 0 years of age ) . the oldest female to breed did so at an age of 10 . 6 years , while the oldest male was 18 . 3 years of age at estimated conception . despite a maximum longevity of 19 . 18 years ( over the last decade ) , median life expectancy is much lower .", "a powerful sense of smell helps the animal find a food source , like a termite mound . the tamandua feeds only a short time at each ant nest or termite mound so it won ' t get many bites . this also helps ensure there are plenty of snacks at the same location the next time !", ") . head and body length ranges from 470 to 770 mm and tail length from 402 to 672 mm . northern tamanduas are fawn to brownish colored and have a distinct , black \" v \" going down their backs . one of their names , vested anteaters , is derived from this \" v \" as it makes the anteater appear to be wearing a vest . northern tamanduas always have this vivid , black \" vest \" on their trunk that continues from the shoulders to the rump . southern tamanduas , northern tamandua ' s closest relative , only has this \" v \" in some specimens from the southeastern portion of their range , the part of their range which is farthest from the range of northern tamanduas . sometimes the two species can only be distinguished by characters of the skull .", "thus , the tamandua is primarily kept as an ambassador species because is a good example of an animal whose future is strongly depending on the attitude of humans towards its natural environment , and for educational reasons as a good example for a unique life form . it thus contributes to a better understanding of the very particular and endemic fauna of south america .", "they are good swimmers and like water so a child ' s wading pool on warm days might be good . some have liked soaking in warm water but most tamandua do not seem to like water that much . not all enjoy getting in water pua loves going to the river but usually avoids getting wet but if heated up she has waded in and even swims but it has to be just right .", "the primary way of communication among the tamanduas is through smell . their anal glands produce a special secretion that has a very strong distasteful smell . they use this secretion to mark trees , paths or any conspicuous object and also to advertise their presence , status and sexual condition to the opposite sex . sometimes they use this stench for marking their territorial boundary . the southern tamanduas are very quiet animals and make sounds only during fights which can be heard in the form of snorts , hisses , roars and sniffs . on the other hand , during the postnatal care , the young tamanduas often make a high - pitched grunting noise to communicate with their mother .", "keepers say the tamanduas can tell the different ant species apart by their smell , and they only like to eat certain types ! tamanduas like to climb , too ( especially palm trees ) , so while out on a walk or meeting guests , keepers have to keep their tamandua from getting too close to any trees . otherwise , our animal ambassador just might grab onto a branch with those mighty forearms , and it would be tough to convince him or her to let go !", "a specialized mouth and tongue let tamanduas eat up to 9 , 000 ants in a single day ! tamanduas don ' t have teeth to chew their food ; instead , their stomach grinds the food after it is swallowed . a 16 - inch - long ( 41 centimeters ) sticky tongue with small barbs on it is just right for stealing ants and termites from their home . the tamandua ' s mouth is only as round as a pencil , but it can also lick up honey and soft , juicy fruits .", "while some anteaters can be gluttons and highly food motivated some are hard to get eating when newly acquired . they usually love the flavor of milk so a kitten milk replacer can be used for flavor short term . milk replacer should not be used long term . there is too much retinol in it . if used it should be temporary to wean them onto a healthy food mix . i have recently been told many tamandua in asian zoos are dying young from retinol toxicity . do not use long term . try to keep any use in adults to under a month .", "females give birth to one young at a time . rarely twins are born but the mother tamandua can not care for more than one young at a time in the wild so one is rejected . in the case of twins at least one young should be removed and bottled and the other watched closely . rarely twins have been left with mom and survived with supplemental feeding of both but this would never happen in the wild and it ' s more common for mom to reject one or even both so it is risky to try leaving both with mom . it ' s a tricky decision since mom ' s milk is best . the first 3 weeks the most touchy for bottle raising .", "the tamandua , sometimes referred to as the ant bear , is a medium sized anteater . they weight about 7 - 19 pounds . my experience is healthy adults average on the larger size over 10 pounds . they are about 2 feet long not counting the tail . the tail is roughly another 2 feet in length and is prehensile . most are about the size of a large house cat or small dog . the standard coloring is tan with a black vest and is why they are often referred to as collard anteaters . however they also come in all blond , all black , all tan , gray and with faded vests when present . the color varies based on the region they live in the wild .", "general info the tamandua , sometimes referred to as the ant bear , is a medium sized anteater . they weight about 7 - 19 pounds and are about 2 feet long not counting the tail . the tail is roughly another foot in length and is prehensile . most are about the size of a large house cat or small dog . the standard coloring is tan with a black vest and is why they are often referred to as collard anteaters . however they also come in all blond , all black , all tan , gray and with faded vests when present . the color varies based on the region they live in the wild . the actual collared anteaters are hard to find now and most in captivity are non - vested or only partly vested .", "if you are generating a pdf of a journal article or book chapter , please feel free to enter the title and author information . the information you enter here will be stored in the downloaded file to assist you in managing your downloaded pdfs locally .", "thank you for your request . please wait for an email containing a link to download the pdf .", "sign up to receive the latest bhl news , content highlights , and promotions .", "bhl relies on donations to provide free pdf downloads and other services . help keep bhl free and open !", "there was an issue with the request . please try again and if the problem persists , please send us feedback .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "\" america meridionali ;

[ 24 ]", "the race roll of honour is a pantheon of the thoroughbred greats stretching back to 1809 when the race first took place and was named after its original prize fund . the first renewal was won by a horse called wizard and the race\u2019s magic quickly caught on ; by the mid - 1860\u2019s the 2 , 000 guineas was considered britain\u2019s premier race for the classic generation with other countries introducing their own versions of the race .", "nijinsky appeared to recover fully after being placed on a \" rich \" diet including raw eggs and irish stout , [ 16 ] and was sent to doncaster for the st . leger in september . in the one mile and six furlongs race , he was attempting to become the first horse since bahram 35 years earlier to complete the english triple crown . he started the 2 / 7 favourite and won comfortably , [ 17 ] although his margin of victory over meadowville was only one length . as of 2017 , he is the last horse to accomplish the feat of sweeping the english triple crown : since 1970 only reference point ( 1987 ) , nashwan ( 1989 ) , sea the stars ( 2009 ) and camelot ( 2012 ) have won two of the three races , but oh so sharp won the filly ' s version of the triple crown in 1985 .", "several years after gilles ' death , his daughter marie had a stone memorial erected at the site of his execution . over the years , the structure came to be regarded as a holy altar under the protection of saint anne . generations of pregnant women flocked there to pray for an abundance of breast milk . the memorial was destroyed by rioting jacobins during the french revolution in the late 18th century .", "1980 brought controversy as the brilliant unbeaten colt nureyev barged his way through to finish first past the post before becoming the only horse in the race\u2019s history to be disqualified . he had almost brought pat eddery and posse down and that colt stayed on strongly to finish a close - up third . meanwhile on the stands rail , known fact and willie carson were out of trouble and finished second past the post , only to be awarded the race on the french trained colt\u2019s demotion .", "nashwan ' s next task was to prove himself against older opposition , starting with the eclipse stakes over one and a quarter miles at sandown park on 8 july . despite having recently recovered from a foot infection and facing both the outstanding racemare indian skimmer and the champion miler warning , he was sent off the 2 / 5 favourite . [ 10 ] nashwan took the lead approaching the final furlong and won by five lengths from the outsider opening verse , who later won the breeders ' cup mile . [ 11 ] two weeks later , nashwan contested britain ' s most prestigious all - aged race , the king george vi and queen elizabeth stakes over one and a half miles at ascot . with the late withdrawal of prix du jockey club winner old vic , nashwan was expected to win easily and started as 2 / 9 favourite . this time he had to fight for his victory , with old rival cacoethes challenging him throughout the final two furlongs . nashwan was driven out by carson to win by a neck , with the subsequent prix de l ' arc de triomphe winner carroll house a further eleven lengths back in fifth . [ 12 ] his narrow margin of victory lead some critics to question his status as a \" super - horse \" . [ 13 ]", "the following year another of the great horses of the last half century claimed the guineas as dancing brave powerfully careered out of the dip to defeat champion sprinter green desert before suffering a narrow defeat in the epsom derby . by season\u2019s end dancing brave was heralded as the champion colt of 1986 following victories in the eclipse stakes , king george vi and queen elizabeth diamond stakes and arc de triomphe .", "nijinsky , a bay horse with a white star and three white feet , was bred at e . p . taylor ' s windfields farm in oshawa , ontario , canada . he was from the second crop of foals sired by northern dancer , the winner of the 1964 kentucky derby who went on to become one of the most influential sires of the 20th century . his dam , flaming page , by bull page , was a highly successful racemare , winning the 1962 queen ' s plate . at stud , she produced only two other foals ; one of these was fleur , who produced the 1977 epsom derby winner the minstrel , the other was minsky , champion irish 2 year old in 1970 . [ 3 ] nijinsky was a big , powerful and handsome horse with great presence standing 16 . 3 hands ( 67 inches , 170 cm ) high , resembling his dam rather than his sire in stature and conformation , traits he tended to pass on to his offspring . [ 4 ]", "as no demon manifested after three tries , the marshal grew frustrated with the lack of results . prelati responded that the demon barron was angry and required the offering of parts of a child . de rais provided these remnants in a glass vessel at a future invocation . all of this was to no avail , and the occult experiments left him bitter and with his wealth severely depleted . [ 25 ]", "in his own confession , gilles testified that \u201cwhen the said children were dead , he kissed them and those who had the most handsome limbs and heads he held up to admire them , and had their bodies cruelly cut open and took delight at the sight of their inner organs ; and very often when the children were dying he sat on their stomachs and took pleasure in seeing them die and laughed\u201d . [ 30 ]", "on 15 may 1440 , rais kidnapped a cleric during a dispute at the church of saint - \u00e9tienne - de - mer - morte . [ 32 ] [ 33 ] the act prompted an investigation by the bishop of nantes , during which evidence of gilles ' crimes was uncovered . [ 32 ] on 29 july , the bishop released his findings , [ 34 ] and subsequently obtained the prosecutorial cooperation of rais ' s former protector , jean vi , the duke of brittany . rais and his bodyservants poitou and henriet were arrested on 15 september 1440 , [ 35 ] [ 36 ] following a secular investigation which paralleled the findings of the investigation from the bishop of nantes . rais ' s prosecution would likewise be conducted by both secular and ecclesiastical courts , on charges which included murder , sodomy , and heresy . [ 37 ]", "the 1971 guineas saw the re - match of europe\u2019s top two juveniles of 1970 as the prolific colt my swallow took on the little horse he had beaten as part of his unbeaten run of seven victories that year : mill reef . my swallow extended that run to eight on his seasonal bow in 1971 while mill reef proved an outstanding two year old winning the gimcrack stakes by 10 lengths and the dewhurst stakes by 4 lengths . mill reef sauntered to victory in the greenham stakes and was then race - fit for newmarket .", "nijinsky ( 21 february 1967 \u2013 15 april 1992 ) , usually known in the united states as nijinsky ii , was a canadian - bred , irish - trained thoroughbred racehorse and sire . he was the outstanding two - year - old in europe in 1969 when he was unbeaten in five races . in the following season , he became the first horse for thirty - five years to win the english triple crown . he is regarded by many experts to have been the greatest flat racehorse in europe during the 20th century [ 1 ] .", "our babu was a bay horse with a white star and snip and distinctive \" lop \" ears [ 2 ] [ 3 ] bred in ireland by sir oliver lambart . he was sired by the champion two - year - old and 2000 guineas winner my babu out of the mare glen line who showed no ability as a racehorse but was a highly successful broodmare producing the eclipse stakes winner king of the tudors . as a descendant of the mare sunbridge , she was a member of the same thoroughbred family as windsor lad . [ 4 ]", "in his next race , nijinsky was sent to france for the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp in paris in october . piggott produced nijinsky in the straight to make his challenge but was baulked twice before making his run on the wide outside . however , 150m from the finish he caught front runners miss dan and sassafras and took a slight lead . in the last strides , nijinsky appeared to veer left away from piggott ' s whip , [ 18 ] and sassafras , ridden by yves saint - martin , produced a renewed effort to regain the advantage and win by a head . while many , including his trainer vincent o ' brien , felt that piggott had given nijinsky too much ground to make up and had left his challenge too late , [ 19 ] the jockey said that in his opinion nijinsky was past his peak for the year . [ 20 ]", "nashwan ' s owner decided not to attempt the triple crown in the st leger stakes , and the colt was instead aimed at the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp in october . to prepare for this race , he was sent to the prix niel over the arc course and distance on 17 september . racing on soft ground , nashwan moved up to challenge in the straight but made no further progress and finished third , beaten one and a half lengths and half a length by the french - trained colts golden pheasant and french glory . [ 14 ] neither hern nor carson could offer any explanation for the \" lifeless \" performance with the jockey commenting that the 1 / 5 favourite \" didn ' t have any energy \" . [ 15 ] nashwan missed the arc , and , as had been announced in summer , he was retired from racing at the end of the year . [ 13 ]", "in 1425 , rais was introduced to the court of charles vii at saumur and learned courtly manners by studying the dauphin . [ 12 ] in combat at saint - l\u00f4 and le mans between 1427 and 1429 , gilles was allowed to indulge his taste for violence and carnage . [ 13 ] at the battle for the ch\u00e2teau of lude , he climbed the assault ladder and slew the english captain blackburn . [ 14 ] he was young , handsome and rich with companions - in - arms of his own stripe about him . [ 15 ]", "in 1434 / 5 , rais gradually withdrew from military and public life in order to pursue his own interests : the construction of a splendid chapel of the holy innocents ( where he officiated in robes of his own design ) , [ 22 ] and the production of a theatrical spectacle called le mist\u00e8re du si\u00e8ge d ' orl\u00e9ans . the play consisted of more than 20 , 000 lines of verse , requiring 140 speaking parts and 500 extras . gilles was almost bankrupt at the time of the production and began selling property as early as 1432 to support his extravagant lifestyle . by march 1433 , he had sold all his estates in poitou ( except those of his wife ) and all his property in maine . only two castles in anjou , champtoc\u00e9 - sur - loire and ingrandes , remained in his possession . half of the total sales and mortgages were spent on the production of his play . the spectacle was first performed in orl\u00e9ans on 8 may 1435 . six hundred costumes were constructed , worn once , discarded , and constructed afresh for subsequent performances . unlimited supplies of food and drink were made available to spectators at gilles ' expense . [ 23 ]", "part of the attraction of the 2 , 000 guineas is the mixture of different horse types it attracts . it is often the first major target of the season for horses likely to tackle longer middle distance races later in the year , but perhaps have sufficient speed for a mile . then there are the specialist milers , who in theory ought to be in their element at this distance . there are also sprinters , who are tried over the rowley mile in the hope that they might just last out the distance . then there are the champion two year olds from the season before , attempting to prove that they have developed over the winter and still retain their position at the head of their generation .", "less than two weeks after his defeat in the arc , nijinsky ran his last race in the champion stakes over ten furlongs at newmarket . although he had been known to sweat freely before some of his previous races , nijinsky on this occasion appeared to become particularly nervous and anxious before the start . in the race itself , he ran well below his best form and was beaten 3 / 4 length at odds of 4 / 11 by the five - year - old english horse lorenzaccio . [ 21 ] o ' brien on this occasion concurred with piggott , saying that nijinsky appeared to have \" lost his fire . \" [ 20 ] nijinsky was retired to stand at stud at claiborne farm near paris , kentucky having been syndicated in august for $ 5 , 440 , 000 . [ 22 ]", "nashwan was a large , powerfully built chestnut horse with a white star and a white sock on his right foreleg bred by his owner hamdan al maktoum at his shadwell farm in lexington , kentucky . he was sired by the 1977 poule d ' essai des poulains winner blushing groom . blushing groom became an exceptionally successful breeding stallion , siring rainbow quest , blushing john , arazi , and many other leading horses . nashwan ' s successes made him the leading sire in great britain & ireland in 1989 . [ 1 ] nashwan ' s dam was height of fashion , a daughter of bustino previously owned by queen elizabeth ii . he was thus a half - brother to the group race winners alwasmi , unfuwain , and nayef , and a close relative of the japanese champion deep impact and the 1000 guineas winner ghanaati . [ 2 ]", "nijinsky ' s first four races were all at the curragh . in june , he started at odds of 4 / 11 and won a six - furlong maiden race by half a length . he followed up with wins in the anglesey stakes and the railway stakes . on his fourth appearance , he was extended for the first time in the beresford stakes . he won decisively from decies , a colt who went on to win the irish 2000 guineas in 1970 . having proved himself the best of the irish two - year - olds , he was sent to england in october to contest the dewhurst stakes at newmarket . ridden for the first time by lester piggott , he was held up at the back of the six - horse field before moving through to take the lead inside the final furlong , earning top rating in the british free handicap . [ 6 ] [ 7 ]", "a month later , nashwan was moved up in distance for the ever ready derby over one and a half miles at epsom downs racecourse . despite the unseasonably cold , damp weather , the race attracted an estimated 500 , 000 spectators including queen elizabeth ii . [ 7 ] nashwan started 5 / 4 favourite against eleven opponents , with the biggest danger expected to come from cacoethes , winner of the lingfield derby trial . carson positioned the favourite just behind the leaders before moving up to take the lead from cacoethes in the straight . he pulled \" effortlessly \" [ 8 ] clear in the closing stages to win by five lengths from the 500 / 1 outsider terimon , who finished well to deprive cacoethes of second . [ 9 ] he was the first horse to complete the guineas - derby double since nijinsky ii in 1970 , [ 8 ] though he was emulated by sea the stars in 2009 and camelot in 2012 .", "nimbus was a bay horse with a white star and snip and white socks on his hind feet . [ 2 ] he was bred by william hill who would go on to win the st . leger stakes in 1959 with cantelo . he was sired by nearco , one of the most important sires of the 20th century . his dam , kong , was sprinter whose victories included the wokingham stakes at royal ascot . in addition to nimbus , kong also produced nimbus ' s three - quarter brother grey sovereign ( sired by nearco ' s son nasrullah ) who won the richmond stakes and became a successful breeding stallion . [ 3 ] as a yearling , nimbus was sent to the sales where he was bought for 5000 guineas by the trainer george colling , acting on behalf of henry glenister . the colt was trained by colling at his hurworth house stable in newmarket , suffolk and raced in the colours of glenister ' s wife , marion . [ 4 ]", "on 27 june , nijinsky followed up his epsom win by taking the irish derby at the curragh . ridden by liam ward , he started at odds of 4 / 11 and accelerated late to win by three lengths from meadowville . [ 13 ] in july , nijinsky raced against older horses for the first time in the king george vi and queen elizabeth stakes at ascot . his five opponents included winners of major races including blakeney ( 1969 epsom derby ) , karabas ( washington , d . c . international stakes ) , crepellana ( prix de diane ) , and caliban ( coronation cup ) . without being extended , nijinsky moved through to take the lead a furlong from the finish and won by two lengths from blakeney despite being eased down to a canter in the closing stages .

in - law lord weinstock in both commerce and racing are legendary . on the turf they enjoyed massive success as owns and breeders ; while they ranked as two of britain\u2019s commercial titans of the 20th century , building up one of the great british success stories , the general electrical company .", "dorothy paget\u2019s background was very different as she inherited her fortune rather than made it . however , she too ranks as a colossus of the turf who ought never to be forgotten . on that basis , it makes sense to treat ourselves to a brief overview of her life , to complete the picture of ballymacoll\u2019s background . miss paget , daughter of lord queenborough , was already a hugely successful owner and breeder by the time that she bought ballymacoll stud in 1946 . three years previously she had landed the greatest prize of all with a homebred , her solario colt straight deal taking the new derby ( the derby , run during the war on newmarket\u2019s july course ) .", "bred by miss paget at elsenham stud on the hertfordshire / essex border near bishop\u2019s stortford , straight deal was trained by walter nightingall in epsom . gordon ( subsequently sir gordon ) richards was always miss paget\u2019s favourite jockey , but he was committed to riding nasrullah ( behind whom straight deal had finished second in the coventry stakes the previous summer ) for hh aga khan iii in the race . the mount on the 100 / 7 chance straight deal therefore went to former hawthorn hill pony racing champion tommy carey . finishing strongly after having been ridden more patiently than in the 2000 guineas ( in which he had finished sixth ) , straight deal led close home to beat the aga khan\u2019s pair umiddad and nasrullah . that victory enabled miss paget to surpass the achievement of her grandfather william c whitney .", "he had become the first american to own a derby winner when volodyovski ( whom he had not bred ) took the prize in 1901 . that triumph had represented a particular landmark for the transatlantic challengers because volodyovski was trained at heath house in newmarket by one american ( james huggins ) and was ridden by another ( lester reiff ) . had straight deal been racing a few years later , it is highly possible that he would have gone on to spend his stud career at ballymacoll . however , miss paget did not yet own the property in 1944 when straight deal began his second career , which he spent at another of her properties , benham stud near newbury .", "he enjoyed a successful stud career which yielded three yorkshire oaks winners as well as the 1950 doncaster cup winner aldborough ( who was trained for miss paget by fulke walwyn ) and the 1958 irish st leger winner royal highway , who subsequently became a good national hunt sire . ( an interesting aspect of aldborough\u2019s victory was that he was ridden for miss paget who , of course , owned ballymacoll stud at the time , by doug smith , fatherin - law of ballymacoll\u2019s current manager peter reynolds ) . notwithstanding the successes of straight deal , aldborough and numerous other good flat horses who bore her blue and yellow silks , miss paget will always be remembered primarily for her jumpers , and particularly for her ownership of one of the greatest steeplechasers in history , golden miller .", "however , that mighty horse was far from her only champion under national hunt rules . golden miller ( who lived out his retirement at elsenham stud , where he is buried ) established a record which will almost certainly never be matched . not only is he the only horse to have won five consecutive cheltenham gold cups ( with his nearest challenger in this respect being arkle , who won the race three times , 1964 to \u201966 inclusive ) but he also ranks as the only horse to win the cheltenham gold cup and the grand national in the same spring , which he did in 1934 , the year in which he landed his third gold cup .", "miss paget\u2019s many victories both on the flat and under national hunt rules , however , tell only half the tale . while she was notably successful on the turf in the years before , during and after the second world war , she was even more conspicuous for what could kindly be called her eccentricity . the tone of her life was set in her youth . her mother died when she was aged only 10 , leaving her fabulously rich but dangerously ill disciplined . within the next few years , she was expelled from six different schools , starting off with heathfield .", "in adult life , miss paget went on to take frank sinatra\u2019s mantra that \u2018i did it my way\u2019 to extremes . she was nocturnal . other than on days when she disrupted her routine to go to the races , she generally slept all day before waking early in the evening and having a huge breakfast at 8 . 30 pm . she would then keep herself busy through the night , generally telephoning her trainers shortly after midnight , before having dinner at 7 . 00 am and retiring to bed soon afterwards . she ate vast amounts ( she weighed 20 stone when she died , aged 54 , of a heart attack in 1960 ) and smoked 100 cigarettes a day . she disliked all men , irrespective of their class ; and all members of the lower classes , irrespective of their gender . she addressed her servants by neither name nor number , but by colour ( each having to wear a uniform of a different hue so that she could tell them apart ) . her gardeners had a particularly difficult job as they had to mow the lawn in the dark because she forbade them from using the lawnmower during the daytime while she was asleep .", "she must have been a nightmare to train for , as is suggested by the fact that basil briscoe , having prepared golden miller to win four gold cups , had been relieved of his responsibilities by the time that the horse lined up for the race for the fifth time ( under the care of owen anthony ) . fulke walwyn and sir gordon richards ( to whom she sent horses when he started training subsequent to his retirement from the saddle in 1953 ) were rarities in being able to cope with her , even if the former found it heavy going at times . on one occasion she had a runner in each of the six races at folkestone . five of them won , with only one , trained by walwyn , being beaten . rather than celebrate her five timer , she ended the afternoon by shouting at her trainer through an open doorway ( they were in adjacent rooms as she preferred not to be in the same room as a man ) , berating him about the solitary defeat .", "the tirade reportedly ended when she exhorted one of her female companions to \u2018go in there and kick him in the b ^ & * s\u2019 ! miss paget was a fearless punter , betting daily in sums which would be huge even nowadays . her biggest bet , apparently , was \u00a3160 , 000 ( which equates to about \u00a34 million in today\u2019s terms ) on an odds - on favourite ( who won ) . overall , though , she lost millions , while retaining her integrity throughout , as is made clear by the fact that when she used to telephone through her bets to her bookmaker in the early hours of the morning , the wagers were never refused irrespective of whether or not the race had already been run , her word that she did not know the result being good enough . we are always told that racing has lost all its old characters .", "there is a certain amount of truth in that , although it is probably fair to say that \u2018characterfulness\u2019 is often easier to discern in retrospect than at the time . however , the hon dorothy paget was one character who was clearly identifiable as such in her own lifetime . she played a massive part in the history of the british turf during the 20th century , a part too big ever to be forgotten . spending a few minutes recalling her life is straight deal surely time well spent .", "to start with , the flax plant , linum usitatissimum being the latin name , is a bast vegetable or hard fibre in the same class as jute , hemp , sisal , coir or ramie .", "flax is grown in northern europe in such countries as france , belgium , the netherlands and italy . it was also grown in ireland from time immemorial when linen cloth and wool cloth were in the earlier days the only form of woven cloth available for apparel . cotton only became available with the opening up of the americas . in ireland flax was grown by the farmer as a regular crop , particularly in the counties of down and antrim , where scottish settlers brought over with them more efficient methods of growing and processing flax .", "it is not generally known that during the second world war large acreages of flax were grown in co . cork and co . kerry , which also included retting and scutching . the milder climate in the extreme south of ireland was of great assistance . these enterprises were set up by linen industry businessmen from the north with close support from the northern ireland government and that of the free state . the resultant flax fibre spun in n . ireland mills and the flax yarn woven in weaving factories in the north was of great assistance to the war effort as flax supplies were cut off by the might of nazi germany who had invaded and occupied the continental coastline from norway to the franco - spanish border .", "today flax growing in ireland has practically ceased . what flax spinning remains ( for instance herdmans ltd . of sion mills , co . tyrone ) would draw its flax from northern europe with courtrai in belgium the chief trading centre .", "the flax plant ( linen usitatissimum ) requires a rich well - cultivated soil and reasonably temperate climate . it is sown in a similar manner to corn ( oats ) , wheat or barley , to produce a long tight - packed growth , some 2\u00bd to 3 feet tall . the flowers form a cluster at the top ( the wee blue blossom ) usually sky blue although some new strains of flax are white . in august the flowers wither and seed balls are formed , from flax seed balls linseed oil can be extracted which has a number of uses including the base material for oil paint .", "the flax seed is sown in april and the plants mature in august . it is then pulled up by the roots to obtain the maximum amount of fibre . this operation was in the past carried out by hand , a most arduous process , but the pulling is now done by machine in wide swathes as a one or two - man operation .", "for the production of flax for linseed oil a shorter strain of flax is grown and is harvested by cutting above ground level with the roots left in the ground . after pulling the flax is spread on the ground and turned over several times to dry out thoroughly , the beets are then made up into \" knee gaits \" or \" long gaits \" in the field for further drying and then finally stored in well - thatched stacks , if , as in the old days , the farmer was doing his own retting in the flax dam or lint hole , the flax after pulling , and still damp , was placed in the dam and weighted down with stones . those of us who date back to the period between the two world wars will remember the pungent smell of retting flax in the latter half of august . nowadays flax is usually retted in tanks , using hot water and chemicals and in this way the process can be strictly controlled and speeded up .", "the flax plant stem is made up of various layers with the bundles of fibre near the outside and woody matter on the inside , all bound together with pectin , which is a natural gummy substance , the woody matter has to be broken down and removed to release the fibre . this is done by retting , which is nothing more than rotting the woody matter . after retting and drying the flax plants are put through a machine with tightly interlocking fluted rollers to break up the wood core . scutching now follows to remove the wood or shive from the fibre , this is a beating process previously done on the scutcher ' s wheel , but now carried out on a turbine scutcher as a continuous process , part of a factory system .", "flax in the past was water - retted but today on the continent vast quantities are dew - retted by spreading the flax plants in the fields after pulling and allowing the night dew to ret the flax . dew - retted flax is dark in colour and contains a lot of impurities , whereas water - retted is a light colour ( remember the saying \" like a flaxen - haired german girl \" ) . water retting also leaches out a lot of the impurities and lightens the colour . after scutching , the flax fibre is packed in bales where it is ready for the spinner who turns the raw fibre into yarn . this is an involved process and not easily understood without actually seeing preparation and spinning carried out in the spinning mill .", "there are three types of flax yarn produced in the spinning mill , viz . line - made from the good quality long - staple flax which is tight - bound with relatively little projecting fibre .", "tow yarn , which is a carding machine operation , uses waste fibre from the hackling and other processes , combed tow goes through an added combing process to clean up the yarn . this type of yarn would be used for high - class fabrics such as linen suitings and artists ' linen canvas . line yarn is the equivalent of worsted and tow an open hairy yarn similar to spun wool . recognition must be given to the cottage - spun yarn of yesterday produced on a spinning wheel .", "2 . irish castle spinning wheel > castle type which is comparatively rare with the wheel on top of a splayed tripod with the spindle underneath .", "in both cases flax - fibre was drawn from the distaff and fed by hand into the hollow revolving spindle . it took nimble fingers and a slobbery mouth to spin fine linen yarn so the womenfolk consequently did it . two spinning terms are still used today - \" spinster \" to denote an unmarried woman and \" distaff ' side to indicate the wife ' s or female side of a family ,", "in the spinning mill the bale of flax is opened up and divided into \" pieces \" which amount to a good handful . they are passed by hand through a set of pins mounted on a block to roughly parallelise the fibre bundles and remove larger pieces of slime and dirt . the pieces are fed into the hackling machine , which combs out impurities and tangles in a series of continuous mechanical combing , from open pins to very closely set . the hackling machine is a monster weighing many tons . the resultant hackled pieces of flax are fine and with a dull sheen .", "from pieces it now becomes necessary to form a continuous ribbon of fibre . this is done on a spreadboard with a special form of drawing frame , fitted with horizontal running , leather belts on which the pieces of flax are laid with a slight overlap to produce a continuous sliver , or ribbon , which is fed into tall narrow cans . the sliver produced on the spreadboard goes to the next process of doubling , which consists of bringing together , and superimposing several slivers to even out minor thicknesses in the resultant single sliver as an aid to improved quality . was bought and sold by the bundle . today it is sold by the weight in kilos .", "the yarn from the spinner arrives at the mill either grey ( natural ) , boiled or bleached on cone , or a parallel - sided package called an avo . generally the stronger yarn is used for warp , long - wise and parallel to the selvedge and the weft , which is woven - in , from selvedge to selvedge .", "following doubling , the slivers are set up on a roving frame which further draws out the slivers and puts in a twist of some two turns per inch and is then wound onto large wooden bobbins which are subsequently mounted on the top part of the spinning frame . the rover passes through a trough of hot water to soften the natural gummy pectin ; then through two sets of paired rollers which further draw out or lengthen the rove then through the eye of the flyer which inserts twist and onto the spinner ' s bobbin . the newer method of wet - spinning frame uses a ring with a traveller running in a groove . it can take a larger spinner ' s bobbin and has greater speed of production . wet spinning is used for the finer line yarns . coarser tows and line are dry - spun ; i . e . the rove does not pass through a trough of hot water .", "the product from off the spinning frame is now flax yarn , which has to be dried in ovens to prevent mildew . in days gone by it was reeled into 90 \" hanks from the spinner ' s bobbin but today it is usually packaged onto a cross - wound cone that holds the package together without flanges . linen yarn can be boiled , bleached or dyed in cone form . formerly these processes were only carried out in hank form .", "like all yarn or thread , linen was given a number to define its diameter or thickness . the numbering system in vogue in the trade was based on the number of cuts of 300 yards that weigh one pound ( 1lb ) avoirdupois . this is denominated the lea number .", "warp yarn is put up with the necessary number of ends ( threads ) in a creel or bank and run onto warpers ' beams ( a steel barrel 4 \" to 6 \" diameter with round metal flanges either side , to prevent the yarn spilling over . ) the warpers ' beams are now set up in a dressing or slashing machine for sizing with a synthetic adhesive to bind down the loose surface fibre on the warp threads , which greatly facilitates the weaving process , where there is much friction on the warp .", "the yarn for weft is wound from cone or avo onto weaving pirns for insertion in the shuttle . the shuttle traverses the slay in the loom through a shed ( in plain weaves 50 % up and 50 % down ) and leaves a trail of weft behind which is beaten up by a reed ( closed comb ) into the fell of the cloth ( where warp yarn joins the already woven cloth ) .", "a loom has a weavers ' beam at the back and a cloth roller at the front on which the woven cloth is wound , the power - loom has a warp break detection device to stop the loom if a warp thread breaks , there is also a weft detection device to stop the loom if the weft breaks . these devices mean that a weaver can look after three or four looms . the automatic loom also changes the pirn in the shuttle without the loom stopping thus allowing a weaver to look after 8 , 10 or 12 looms . of recent years weft is inserted in shuttleless looms by arms or rapiers drawing the yarn from large cones . other forms of weft propulsion are air - jet or water - jet ."]}

89 : \u201c \u201c 60mm this gives an average growth of 3 , 5mm diameter pr . month . if the average thickness of the skeleton is estimated roughly to 2 . 0 mm and the specific weight of app . 1 , 5 g / ccm , these two colonies alone have fixed app . 17 gr . calcium carbonate , all very roughly estimated of course . as we clearly see that stony corals , serpulide worms , vermetide snails , different crustaceans , molluscs , the calcareous red - , green - and brown algae and many other calcium fixers are growing heavily , how can anyone state that the adding of calcium and bicarbonate is not necessary ! ?", "in august 1990 i once again measured the second generation acanthocauli on the shell - side of the giant calm . it had now grown to a diameter of 2 cm and as this was not enough , another three very small new acanthocauli - polyps are developing near by . meanwhile the \u201colder ones\u201d have grown to a diameter of 8 cm .", "when i examined the shells of the clam about two months after the event , i to my even bigger astonishment discovered that two new acanthocauli were growing from the same stalk ! in nature the stalk becomes weakened from calcareous destroying organisms like algae and sponges , and the polyp breaks off . here the obvious reason for loosening was the decreasing in light intensity when the giant calm was moved backwards in my aquarium . when i visited herr dietrich st\u00e3\u00bcber , who is one of the world leading persons on hermatypic stony corals in captivity , in berlin ( brd ) in october 1989 , in his excellent aquarium especially designed for the growth of scleractinian corals , i was able to detect the asexual formation from several acanthocauli at an fungia sp . , perhaps f . simplex . the pictures that follows this article clearly shows that we have now reached the technical point where natural conditions can be simulated and that natural events can be studied in detail . we can add something new to the knowledge of the reef corals . for all those especially interested in scleractinian corals veron , 1986 is a must and really an excellent work on the subject . the full reference is given below .", "veron , j . e . n . , 1986 . corals of australia and the indo -

( for example , the term \u2018meandroid\u2019 may be used to describe both the type of budding and the type of colony . )", "all corals that form colonies do so by a process of budding , where the parent polyp divides itself into two or more daughter polyps ( intratentacular budding ) , or daughter corallites form on the side of the parent colony ( extratentacular budding ) , or polyps lose their identity , as seen in colonies with valleys . some colonies have both intra - and extra - tentacular buds .", "right . extratentacular budding ( left ) and intratentacular budding ( right ) in faviid colonies . drawings : geoff kelley", "if the corallites of a colony all have their own walls they are called plocoid or phaceloid , depending on how elongate they are . if they share common walls they are called meandroid or cerioid , depending on whether or not they form valleys . if they are meandroid and have their own walls they are termed flabello - meandroid .", "5 . colony formation in corals . 1 plocoid colonies have corallites with their own walls . 2 phaceloid colonies also have corallites with their own walls , but these are long and tubular . 3 cerioid colonies have polyps , which have common walls . 4 . meandroid colonies have valleys rather than polyps . 4 meandroid colonies have valleys rather than polyps . 5 . flabello - meandroid colonies also have valleys , but do not have common walls . drawings : geoff kelly .", "these growth forms confer several constraints on corallite replication and growth . plocoid and phaceloid colonies can have both intratentacular and extratentacular budding , while cerioid colonies can only have intratentacular budding . plocoid , cerioid and meandroid colonies have integrated corallites or valleys , while adjacent corallites or valleys of phaceloid and flabello - meandroid colonies may have little or no connecting tissue . the latter may compete for space and other resources , with the result that some parts of colonies overgrow other parts .", "some colonies combine two growth forms . euphyllia and lobophyllia colonies may be phaceloid toward the colony centre where lack of space constrains valley formation and be flabello - meandroid at the periphery where there are no such constraints . similarly , symphyllia colonies may have both meandroid and flabello - meandroid areas ; favia colonies may have both plocoid and meandroid areas ; favites and goniastrea colonies may be both plocoid and cerioid . there are also many intermediate forms between plocoid and fully phaceloid and ( very commonly ) between cerioid and fully meandroid colonies .", "a variety of other types of colony formation are found in corals , but these are uncommon .", "the most common terms used to describe growth form are ordinary descriptive words . massive means solid and similar in shape in all dimensions . encrusting means adhering to the substrate . branching means forming branches . arborescent means tree - like . columnar means forming columns . laminar means plate - like . explanate means forming solid sheets . other terms are used with particular groups of corals ; all are explained in the glossary . however , there are so many different shapes of corals that such descriptive terms can be misleading and carry less meaning than illustrations .", "a common modification of all descriptive terms is the addition of the prefix sub to the term ( e . g . submassive , subcerioid , sub - equal ) , meaning \u2018less than\u2019 or \u2018not quite\u2019 .", "the much - studied coral porites forms large hemispherical colonies which typically grow ( radially ) at a rate of around 1 cm per year as determined by x - rays of thin slices . some more heavily calcified colonies of other corals grow at slower rates than this , although most are faster . staghorn acropora readily grows ( linearly ) up to about 30 cm per year . plate - forming acropora also grows ( in diameter ) up to about 30 cm per year ."]}

nesting birds , and they will readily nest in birdhouses or specialized gourds . leaving dead trees with old woodpecker holes intact will provide additional nesting sites . some swallow species , such as barn swallows , will build their cup - shaped nests in sheltered areas under eaves on porches and decks or along roof lines . a muddy puddle \u2013 perhaps under a gutter downspout or in a sheltered location in the yard \u2013 will provide good nesting material to encourage the birds to raise their families in the neighborhood .", "the incubation duties are shared between females and males in some species ; in others the eggs are incubated solely by the females . among the species where the male helps with incubation , the contribution varies among species , with some species like the cliff swallow sharing the duties equally and the female doing most of the work in others . among the barn swallows , the male of the american subspecies helps ( to a small extent ) whereas the european subspecies does not . even in species where the male does not incubate the eggs , the male may sit on them when the female is away to reduce heat loss .", "the family uses a wide range of habitats . they are dependent on flying insects , and as these are common over waterways and lakes , they will frequently feed over these , but they can be found in any open habitat including grasslands , open woodland , savanna , marshes , mangroves and scrubland , from sea level to high alpine areas ( turner 2004 ) . many species inhabit human - altered landscapes including agricultural land and even urban areas . land use changes have also caused some species to expand their range , most impressively the welcome swallow which began to colonize new zealand in the 1920s , started breeding there in the 1950s , and is now a common land bird there ( tarburton 1993 ) .", "because of the readiness with which some species nest in and around human settlements and buildings , people have had a long experience with swallows and many myths and legends have arisen as a consequence ( turner 2004 ) . the migratory habits of the european species have led to an association with spring , as recorded in the proverb \" one swallow does not make a summer . \" they have also been incorporated into religious stories , in part because of their arrival in europe around the time of easter , and apocryphal stories place them at the crucifixion of jesus , either trying to distract those sent to arrest jesus in the garden or to comfort jesus on the cross . they are also mentioned in the koran attacking christians who were attacking mecca . older legends have it that athene turned into one in order to flee danger .", "with the open country for birds being quickly replaced with houses and buildings everywhere these birds have retorted to our kitchen gardens , where they feed on small insects and nest around houses . swallow nesting is considered \u2018pests\u2019 due to its gregarious behavior and limiting access of humans to their own garages or kitchen gardens . swallows can be very protective for the young ones and refuse to vacate even after repeated attempts . once the nest is built , the bird also tends to return at the same site every time for breeding and nesting . the solution lies in preserving their habitat of lakes , rivers and ponds around the agricultural land . if possible allow them a small corner around the house , warehouse etc . swallows can easily gain attention and help in clearing insects and small crop pests , in lieu of the space it needs to raise the young !", "html public \" -

from moths to mosquitoes - and inviting a family of them into the backyard can provide exceptional ( and free ! ) pest control .", "the key to attracting any specific type of bird is to meet that bird ' s unique requirements for the basic needs of survival : food , water , shelter , and nesting sites .", "for swallows , those requirements can be a bit different than other typical passerines and more familiar backyard birds .", "food : swifts , swallows , and martins almost never visit bird feeders , no matter what food is offered . so what do swallows eat ? these are insectivorous birds and preserving healthy insect populations is essential for them to have an adequate food source . avoiding insecticides and pesticides is the first step , and areas of open grass should be large enough to allow the birds to skim low over them while feeding . leaving grass slightly longer will encourage more insects for the birds to feed on . some birders have had limited success offering mealworms for swifts and swallows to eat , but it takes a great deal of time and effort to get the birds accustomed to that unusual food source . that effort may be better spent fostering natural insect sources the birds are more familiar with .", "water : these birds typically stay near natural water sources , and a nearby lake , large pond or broad stream is essential for them to drink . as they fly over the water , they skim the surface to dip their bills in for a drink instead of perching to sip . moving water is more apt to attract swallows , swifts , and martins to backyards with noise and sparkles , and a bird bath fountain , bubbler or mister can be effective in attracting their attention . they may visit larger bird baths , and will often fly through sprinklers or misters for a quick , cool dip .", "shelter : while many backyard birds need extensive trees , bushes , and thickets to feel safe and secure , these aerial birds are quite distinct in that they prefer more open areas . they are agile fliers and will soar and dive around yards that have smooth curves and open space . providing perching spots on wires , clotheslines or antennas will encourage them to stay nearby .", "removing large trees to provide more open space and more grassy areas for the birds to fly over while feeding .", "adjusting lawn watering schedules as much as local ordinances may allow providing a fly -

nesters ; africa still has the greatest diversity of species ( 1989 ) .", "the bill of the sand martin is typical for the family , being short and wide .", "the swallows and martins ( and saw - wings ) have an evolutionary conservative body shape that is similar across the family but is unlike that of other passerines ( turner 2004 ) . swallows have adapted to hunting insects on the wing by developing a slender streamlined body , and long pointed wings , which allow great maneuverability and endurance , as well as frequent periods of gliding . their body shape allows for very efficient flight , which costs 50 - 75 percent less for swallows than equivalent passerines of the same size . swallows usually forage at around 30 to 40 kilometers per hour although they are capable of reaching speeds of between 50 to 65 kilometers per hour when traveling .", "like the unrelated swifts and nightjars , which hunt in a similar way , swallows have short bills , but strong jaws and a wide gape . their body length ranges from about 10 to 24 centimeters ( 3 . 9\u20139 . 4 inches ) and their weight from about 10 to 60 grams ( 0 . 4\u20132 . 1 ounces ) . the wings are long , pointed , and have nine primary feathers . the tail has 12 feathers and may be deeply forked , somewhat indented , or square - ended . a long tail increases maneuverability , and may also function as a sexual adornment , since the tail is frequently longer in males . female barn swallows will select mates on the basis of tail length ."]}

kingdon , 2003 ) .", "thus , gould recognized the distinct division between the australopithecus and homo habilis ( recognized by most anthropologists as advanced a . africanus ) and homo erectus . the former two are on the mammalian line , whereas the latter is grouped with modern man . thus according to bbrs creationists would divide the two groups into a general mammalian kind and a human kind .", "in the first part of the twentieth century , fossil teeth , jaws , a spectacular skull of proconsul found by mary leakey , and a stunning partial skeleton shaped anthropologists ' ideas of our distant past . in 1980 , when walker happened to recognize some misidentified bones from the well - known partial skeleton in the national museum of kenya in nairobi , the chance find set him on his own quest to unravel", "\u2018some of our early ancestors , who were smaller than humans today , had brains closer to the average for their size of all mammals \u2026 this is australopithecus africanus and later african homo habilis \u2026 . the more recent , homo erectus and modern homo sapiens have much larger brains than predicted by body weight alone . this indicates that we have evolved larger brains at an exceptional rate and apparently have reached new levels of intelligence . \u2019 13", "comparisons with extant hominoids have shown that a . afarensis and a . africanus have relatively thick mandibular corpora ( 74 , 75 ) . the same pattern was also found for paranthropus boisei and p . robustus . fig . 5 shows mandibular robusticity index values for extant great apes , some miocene apes , and early australopithecines . the early hominids show relatively thicker mandibular corpora than extant great apes and miocene catarrhines , suggesting a morphological shift in the former .", "shearing crest studies have been conducted on early miocene african apes and middle to late miocene european apes . these studies suggest a considerable range of diets in these forms . for example , rangwapithecus and oreopithecus have relatively long shearing crests , suggesting folivory ; ouranopithecus has extremely short \u201ccrests , \u201d suggesting a hard - object specialization ; whereas most other miocene taxa studied , such as proconsul and dryopithecus , have the intermediate length crests of a frugivore ( 14 , 45 ) .", "in sum , then , the microwear suggests that , by the end of the miocene , hominoids had a wide range of diets . in contrast , a . afarensis probably focused on soft fruit but also began to incorporate into its diet abrasive , terrestrial resources that required incisal stripping . a . africanus may still have focused on soft fruit , particularly that which required a moderate amount of incisal preparation . clearly , considerably more work is needed on these and other early hominids to put together a reasonable picture of diet based on microwear evidence .", "further field work by the leakeys , and then by walker and colleagues , expanded the number of proconsul fossils significantly , and today it is one of the best known fossil primates . walker and shipman describe the details of field work , and tell many interesting stories of encounters with curious natives , inclement weather , and cantankerous equipment . they are careful to break up the serious discussions of science with stories that describe the personalities of their colleagues or that highlight the excitement of discoveries , which will surely help to keep the interest of the reader .", "as for the early hominids , a . africanus had more occlusal relief than did paranthropus robustus , suggesting a dietary difference between these species ( 30 ) . additional preliminary shearing quotient studies support this idea while reaffirming that the australopithecines , as a group , had relatively flat , blunt molar teeth and lacked the long shearing crests seen in some extant hominoids ( 28 ) . by itself , this indicates that the earliest hominids would have had difficulty breaking down tough , pliant foods , such as soft seed coats and the veins and stems of leaves\u2014although they probably were capable of processing buds , flowers , and shoots .", "there have been many attempts to measure the cranial capacity of man and his cranial configuration in order to directly measure his mentality . from what is now known of modern man , there is no relationship between cranial capacity and intelligence . in fossil man and apes the endocranial casts show arteries and the general shape of the inner aspects of the skull , but not the sulci and gyri which are important . the key transitional fossils proconsul and australopithecus have been challenged by falk and his group who demonstrate affinities of these organisms by \u2018reading\u2019 the sulci , especially the lunate sulcus on the endocranial casts . their work is disputed and so one must conclude that cranial configuration studies need further research .", "the discovery of the fore - limb bones of p . africanus is therefore an event of considerable moment , for they constitute the oldest and most complete skeleton of the hominoid fore - limb so far known . it is clear that these bones belong to one of the most significant periods of primate evolution ; a period when the generalized catarrhine stock was emerging from a prolonged phase of arboreal quadrupedalism with its limited opportunities for adaptive radiation and was entering upon a phase that would provide a diversity of environmental opportunity leading ultimately to the emergence of four distinct patterns of locomotion among the anthropoidea : ( 1 ) arboreal quadrupedalism , ( 2 ) terrestrial quadrupedalism , ( 3 ) brachiation , ( 4 ) terrestrial bipedalism .", "the only exception is ardipithecus , which is more chimp - sized in the p 4 \u2013m 1 region , but intermediate between chimpanzees and orangutans in the m 2 \u2013m 3 region . again , interpretations of such differences are hampered by the lack of body size estimates for ardipithecus , but if a body size estimate of 51 kg is used for a . anamensis ( the average of the two different estimates based on the tibia ) ( 18 ) , mchenry ' s \u201cmegadontia quotient\u201d for this taxon is essentially identical to that for a . afarensis ( fig . 3 ) . in other words , its molars are large for a hominoid , but smaller than those of a . africanus or the \u201crobust\u201d australopithecines .", ". . . we are assuming that the fossil represents the modal morphology for that species ( although this assumption might not hold in the future as more specimens become available ) . the miocene ape taxa included in the asrs are ekembo nyanzae ( knm - mw 13142 ; ward , 1993 ; ward et al . , 1993 ; re - assigned from the genus proconsul ; mcnulty et al . , 2015 ) , nacholapithecus kerioi ( knm - bg 35250 ; ishida et al . , 2004 ; nakatsukasa et al . , 2007 ) , and oreopithecus bambolii ( igf 11778 ;

ward et al . , 1997 ; alba et al . , 2015 ; mcnulty et al . , 2015 ) , although others interpret early miocene taxa be either stem catarrhines or sister taxa to hominoids ( rossie et al . , 2002 ; harrison , 2010 ) . the hiwegi formation from which the knm - mw 13142 skeleton derives is dated to 17 . 9 myr ( drake et al . , 1988 ) , and so this was selected as the tip date . . . .", "studies of corpus shape in a . anamensis and ardipithecus ramidus will likely provide further clues regarding differences in mandibular architecture between great apes and later australopithecines . corpus robusticity indices for a . anamensis below m 1 average 53 . 5 ( m . leakey , personal communication ) . these values fall at the upper range for extant hominoids ( pan = 39 . 2\u201357 . 8 ;

n , \" tracker \" ) , from ( \u00edkhnos , \" track , footstep \" ) . the name first appeared in aristotle ' s \" history of animals \" , c . 343 bc . aristotle noted that the ichneumon preys upon spiders , is a wasp smaller than ordinary wasps , and carries its prey to a hole which they lay their larvae inside , and that they seal the hole with mud . [ 1 ]", "adult ichneumonids superficially resemble other wasps . they have a slender waist , two pairs of wings , a pair of large compound eyes on the side of the head and three ocelli on top of the head . their size varies considerably from a few millimetres to seven or more centimetres .", "the ichneumonids have more antennal segments than typical , aculeate wasps ( aculeata : vespoidea and apoidea ) : ichneumonids typically possess 16 or more , while most other wasps have 13 or fewer . unlike the aculeate wasps , which sting in defense and do not pass their eggs along the stinger , ichneumonid females have an ovipositor ( homologous to the stinger ) which they use to lay eggs inside or on their host . ichneumonids generally inject venom along with the egg , but only larger species ( some in the genera netelia and ophion ) with relatively short ovipositors use the ovipositor in defense . males do not possess stingers or ovipositors in either lineage .", "a female xanthopimpla punctata . the ovipositor is longer and more slender than the stingers of aculeate wasps", "ichneumonids are distinguished from their sister group braconidae mainly on the basis of wing venation . the fore wing of 95 % of ichneumonids has vein 2m - cu , which is absent in braconids . vein 1rs - m of the fore wing is absent in all ichneumonids , but is present in 85 % of braconids . in the hind wing of ichneumonids , vein rs - m joins rs apical to ( or rarely opposite ) the split between veins rs and r1 . in braconids , vein rs - m joins basal to this split . the taxa also differ in the structure of the metasoma : about 90 % of ichneumonids have a flexible suture between tergites 2 and 3 , whereas these tergites are fused in braconids ( though the suture is secondarily flexible in aphidiinae ) .

[ 3 ] recently this belief has been questioned , after the discovery of numerous new tropical species . [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ]", "some ichneumonid species lay their eggs in the ground , but most inject them either directly into their host ' s body or on its surface . after hatching , the ichneumonid larva consumes its still living host . the most common hosts are larvae or pupae of lepidoptera , coleoptera and hymenoptera . for example , a species of ichneumonid has been found to lay eggs in african sugarcane borer larva , a moth common in sub - saharan africa . [ 7 ] ichneumonids are also considered a primary enemy of the arctic woolly bear moth . [ 8 ] some species in the subfamily pimplinae also parasitise spiders . hyperparasitoids such as mesochorinae oviposit inside the larvae of other ichneumonoids . the hosts of many species are unknown ; host information has been summed up by e . g . aubert , [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] perkins . [ 12 ] [ 13 ] and townes . [ 14 ]", "ichneumonids use both idiobiont and koinobiont strategies . idiobionts paralyze their host and prevent it from moving or growing . koinobionts allow their host to continue to grow and develop . in both strategies , the host typically dies after some weeks , after which the ichneumonid larva emerges and pupates .", "adult ichneumonids feed on a diversity of foods , including plant sap , nectar and other insects . they spend much of their active time searching , either for hosts ( female ichneumonids ) or for emerging females ( male ichneumonids ) .", "the predation pressure exerted by ichneumonids can be tremendous , and they are often one of the major regulators of invertebrate populations . [ 15 ] [ 16 ] it is quite common for 10 - 20 % or more of a host ' s population to be parasitised ( though reported parasitism rates often include non - ichneumonid parasitoids ) .

[ 19 ] [ 20 ] due to the high diversity , the existence of numerous small and hard to identify species , and the majority of species being undiscovered , it has proven difficult to resolve the phylogeny of the ichneumonids . even the relationships between subfamilies are unclear . the sheer diversity also means dna sequence data is only available for a tiny fraction of the species , and detailed cladistic studies require major computing capacity .", "extensive catalogues of the ichneumonids include those by aubert , [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] gauld , [ 21 ] perkins , [ 12 ] [ 13 ] and townes . [ 14 ] [ 22 ] [ 23 ] [ 24 ] [ 25 ] due to the taxonomic difficulties involved , however , their classifications and terminology are often confusingly contradictory . several prominent authors have gone as far as to publish major reviews that defy the international code of zoological nomenclature . [ 22 ] [ 23 ] [ 24 ] [ 25 ] [ 26 ] [ 27 ]", "the large number of species in ichneumonidae may be due to the evolution of parasitoidism in hymenoptera , which occurred approximately 247 million years ago . [ 28 ] [ 29 ] ichneumonidae is the basal branch of apocrita , the lineage in which parasitoidism in hymenoptera evolved , and some ichneumonids are thought to have been in stasis for millions of years and closely resemble the common ancestor in which parasitoidism evolved . this common ancestor was likely an ectoparasitoid woodwasp that parasitized wood - boring beetle larvae in trees . [ 30 ] the family has existed since at least the jurassic ( ca . 150 mya ) , but may have appeared some time before . it diversified during the oligocene .", "in 1999 , the ichneumonids were divided into 39 subfamilies , [ 31 ] [ 32 ] whose names and definitions have varied considerably . the phylogenetic relationships between the subfamilies are still unclear .", "the apparent cruelty of the ichneumonids troubled philosophers , naturalists , and theologians in the 19th century , who found the parasitoid life style inconsistent with the notion of a world created by a loving and benevolent god . [ 33 ] charles darwin found the example of the ichneumonidae so troubling that it contributed to his increasing doubts about the nature and existence of a creator . in an 1860 letter to the american naturalist asa gray , darwin wrote :", "i own that i cannot see as plainly as others do , and as i should wish to do , evidence of design and beneficence on all sides of us . there seems to me too much misery in the world . i cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent god would have designedly created the ichneumonidae with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of caterpillars , or that a cat should play with mice . [ 34 ]", "the wasps that are nicknamed ' the ichneumons ' ( or hunters ) , less in size , by the way , than the ordinary wasp , kill spiders and carry off the dead bodies to a wall or some such place with a hole in it ; this hole they smear over with mud and lay their grubs inside it , and from the grubs come the hunter - wasps . . . . the eagle and the snake are enemies , for the eagle lives on snakes ; so are the ichneumon and the venom - spider , for the ichneumon preys upon the latter ."]}

endorsed candidate . in 1937 he contested the federal seat of warringah as an independent , winning a stunning victory over the incumbent uap member and minister for defence , sir ( robert ) archdale parkhill . campaigning on the lack of preparedness for australia\u2019s defence and the need for youth in government , spender won on australian labor party preferences .", "on his appointment to delena , the l . m . s . had suggested to chatterton the possibility of ordination . percy accepted this call and , after some theological studies , was ordained to the ministry of the congregational church in australia in 1943 . this enabled him to exercise the full functions of a pastor , but it is characteristic of him that he did not use his new authority to set up his own little spiritual kingdom . instead he strengthened the l . m . s . system of village congregational meetings and established a central district church council made up of lay members and pastors representing the village congregations . the effect of this organisation was to involve the ordinary members more closely in the affairs of their church and , during chatterton\u2019s last years at delena , the council took an increasingly greater responsibility for the management of the church in the district . percy\u2019s own role was that of adviser , consultant and conciliator when requested by the councillors . this exercise in localisation was well under way at a time when the word was unheard of in the land and the concept , if thought of at all , was paid little more than lip service . the scheme of church government also helped to prepare the people for the later introduction of local government councils .", "within the engine ranks , the trains enforce clear hierarchies and mirror the class rigidity of their aristocratic masters . \" steamies \" are better than \" dirty diesels , \" and the number of tenders a train commands are his marks of distinction . in misty island rescue , sir topham hatt offers the privilege of pulling special \" jobi \" wood to the most useful engine . when \" diesel \" ( that is his name ; his caste merits no proper name ) suggests that he might compete for this honor , thomas laughs at him , saying , \" i ' m sure [ hatt ] means a really useful steam y ; you ' ll never be that ! \" when diesel decides to prove thomas wrong by stealing the jobi logs and pulling them himself , thus reinforcing all negative diesel stereotypes , he speeds dangerously out of control . thomas , primarily concerned with saving the cargo , saves diesel as he hangs off a cliff , but loses the wood . thomas is unable to feel much pride in saving another ' s life and sighs balefully over the loss of such valuable timber . sir topham hatt reinforces this perverse value system by bemoaning the loss of the wood , and publicly shames diesel before sending him back to work in a dark tunnel . did i mention that diesel is black ?", "yet the conservatism of thomas and friends is not the conservatism of america . key to the \" pick yourself up by your bootstraps \" mythos in the united states is the notion that anyone can rise to the top with hard work and initiative . the thomas series glories instead in true \" white man ' s burden \" style british imperialism . our hero , thomas , and his friends jockey for positions just below that of the bullying aristocrat sir topham hatt but never seek to rise to his level . the stern , dour little englishman in top hat and tails dangles meaningless honors like getting to \" carry the most special special \" to divide and conquer the trains .", "another of percy\u2019s favourite themes that was ahead of its time was the warning that , in allowing and encouraging massive overseas investment by big corporations without careful restrictions and control , the country was in danger of exchanging political for economic colonialism . this has since become a subject for worldwide discussion and concern and the papua new guinea government is now well aware of the problems involved . chatterton also had the satisfaction in 1971 of seeing certain jobs in the private sec\u00adtor , as well as in the public service , reserved for local workers . he had proposed this in november 1968 in the face of outraged opposition from many fellow members . in 1974 , the government was also proposing to set up a national capital district and an om\u00adbudsman\u2019s commission .", "having stood unsuccessfully as an independent liberal and country party candidate for the legislative council seat of monash in june 1949 , joske succeeded ( sir ) thomas walter white to the safe liberal seat of balaclava in the house of representatives at a by - election on 28 july 1951 . the sun - herald described him as a ` fluent debater\u2019 , although his ` thin voice\u2019 was ` sometimes lost in house debates\u2019 . he was a member of various parliamentary committees , an australian delegate ( 1955 ) to the tenth session of the general assembly of the united nations in new york , a councillor ( 1956 - 60 ) of the australian national university and chairman ( 1959 - 60 ) of the commonwealth immigration planning council .", "spender\u2019s rise in federal politics over the next four years was circuitous rather than meteoric . joining the uap parliamentary party in 1938 , he was passed over for ministerial positions in the jostling that followed the death of prime minister joseph lyons and the succession of ( sir ) robert menzies , and amid competing demands from the states on the breakdown of coalition with the country party . appointed minister assisting the treasurer ( menzies ) , he became acting - treasurer in november 1939 , then treasurer from march to october 1940 . he advocated high wartime taxes and spending , and allowed a talented young group of economists to apply keynesian ideas to australia\u2019s circumstances . progressive , and supportive of state - directed planning , he flagged industrialisation and population growth as the engines of australia\u2019s postwar economy .", "spender became minister for external affairs and minister for external territories in menzies\u2019 1949 government . although the minister for only sixteen months , he instigated and helped to implement the colombo plan\u2014called initially the \u2018spender plan\u2019\u2014and also negotiated with the us envoy , john foster dulles , the terms of the australia - new zealand - united states treaty . he represented australia at the treaty signing ceremony at san francisco in september 1951 . travelling widely , he had a highly developed sense of geopolitics and of change in the asia - pacific region . as a cold war realist he argued that the soviet union posed a global threat and believed that a soviet setback in europe would increase the prospect of communist interest in asia . he was a leading figure in the liberal party\u2019s plan to outlaw the communist party of australia . vice - president ( 1950 - 51 ) of the fifth general assembly of the united nations , he instructed ( sir ) keith shann , against menzies\u2019 wishes , to vote for a resolution condemning chinese aggression in korea .", "chatterton\u2019s championship of the underdog and his vigilant defence of all citizens\u2019 rights and freedoms is consistent with his background and upbringing . these had also been the concerns of his nonconformist forefathers and percy carried on in papua new guinea the causes of the english reforming dissenters . looking back over his time as a politician , he believes his efforts to raise local wages , the setting up of the national broadcasting commission and the promotion of the bill of human rights to have been his most important achievements . with regard to the last he says : \u2018just how many of the rights set out in the ordinance will survive remains to be seen , but at least it ensures that , if the people of papua new guinea decide to throw them away , or allow them to be taken away , they will know what they are losing\u2019 . his biggest disappointments were the rejection of the ombudsman and the suggestion that a national capital district be created . the latter was an attempt to benefit both the city of port moresby and the rural areas of the central district as well as papua as a whole . if expenditure on the national capital were to be subtracted from the amount allowed in the budget for papua , he believed that a true picture of papua\u2019s comparative neglect in relation to new guinea would be revealed .", "but in the wake of yesterday ' s thrilling denouement came the chilling other side of the sport ' s spinning coin . inside the final two furlongs horatio nelson , the mount of kieren fallon , broke a foreleg , his gallop reduced in an instant to a grotesque stagger . fallon pulled up and dismounted and the colt was taken from the course in an equine ambulance , but his injuries proved too severe for him to be saved .", "the newmarket - based packenhams kept their nerve and kept their young star . and all the faith , judgement and patience have been gloriously rewarded on the greatest stage of all .", "dylan thomas still held the call sweeping down the hill to tattenham corner and into the straight , closely pressed by dragon dancer . the pair began to stretch their lead , with no immediate pursuers and going to the final furlong they were still head - to - head in front .", "but then , towards the middle of the track , the 2 - 1 favourite visindar began to make his move , with hala bek alongside and horatio nelson on their heels . the three came tight together and at this point horatio nelson sustained his fatal injury ."]}

pollinating seed parasites of herbaceous phyllanthus . each of the nine japanese epicephela species is specialized to a single plant species in the genera glochidion , breynia or phyllanthus , except for epicephala obovatella and epicephala corruptrix that each utilizes two closely related glochidion species . considerable variations are found in pollination and oviposition behaviors among species , which are reflected in their proboscis and ovipositor morphologies , respectively . molecular phylogeny indicated that there have been repeated transitions in oviposition mode during the diversification of epicephala , which were accompanied by changes in ovipositor morphology , as suggested by a correlation analysis . keys to species are provided .", "revision of the japanese species of epicephala meyrick with descriptions of seven new species ( lepidoptera , gracillariidae ) .", "chemical ecology of obligate pollination mutualisms : testing the ' private channel ' hypothesis in the breynia -

shape , acute apically .", "epicephala moths are involved in obligate mutualisms with their phyllanthaceae hosts , in which the female moths assure pollination and , in return , their progeny develop by consuming the seeds . ecological , molecular and geographical data suggest that the genus includes several hundred species , but the majority remains to be formally described . here we revise the japanese species of epicephala meyrick , 1880 . in addition to two previously named species , seven species are newly described : e . anthophilia sp . n . , e . lanceolatella sp . n . , e . perplexa sp . n . , e . obovatella sp . n . , e . corruptrix sp . n . , e . parasitica sp . n . and e . nudilingua sp . n . the first four are species involved in obligate pollination mutualism , while the fifth is a pollinating seed parasite and the last two are derived non - pollinating seed parasites of herbaceous phyllanthus . each of the nine japanese epicephela species is specialized to a single plant species in the genera glochidion , breynia or phyllanthus , except for e . obovatella and e . corruptrix that each utilizes two closely related glochidion species . considerable variations are found in pollination and oviposition behaviors among species , which are reflected in their proboscis and ovipositor morphologies , respectively . molecular phylogeny indicated that there have been repeated transitions in oviposition mode during the diversification of epicephala , which were accompanied by changes in ovipositor morphology , as suggested by a correlation analysis . keys to species are provided .", "the well - known fig - fig wasp and yucca - yucca moth mutualisms are classic examples of obligate mutualisms that have been shaped by millions of years of coevolution . pollination systems involving obligate seed parasites are only expected to evolve under rare circumstances where their positive effects are not swamped by abundant co - pollinators and heavy costs resulting from seed destruction . here , we show that , in phyllantheae , specialization to pollination by epicephala moths evolved at least five times , involving more than 500 phyllantheae species in this obligate association . active pollination behaviour evolved once in epicephala , 10 - 20 myr after the initial divergence of their host plants . the pollinating epicephala moths thus radiated on an already - diverged host lineage and successively colonized new phyllantheae hosts , thereby giving rise to repeated independent evolution of the specialized pollination system in phyllantheae . the present evolutionary success of this association rests entirely upon active pollination by epicephala , making this a distinct example of an evolutionary key innovation . overall , our findings provide a clear empirical demonstration of how a combination of evolutionary innovation and partner shifts facilitates the spread of mutualism in a coevolving species interaction .", "the obligate mutualisms between flowering plants and their seed - parasitic pollinators constitute fascinating examples of interspecific mutualisms , which are often characterized by high levels of species diversity and reciprocal species specificity . the diversification in these mutualisms has been thought to occur through simultaneous speciation of the partners , mediated by tight reciprocal adaptation ; however , recent studies cast doubt over this general view . in this study , we examine the diversity and species specificity of epicephala moths ( gracillariidae ) that pollinate glochidion trees ( phyllanthaceae ) , using analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences . phylogenetic analysis of epicephala moths associated with five glochidion species in japan and taiwan reveal six genetically isolated species that are also distinguishable by male genital morphology : ( i ) two species specific to single host species ( g . acuminatum and g . zeylanicum , respectively ) ; ( ii ) two species that coexist on g . lanceolatum ; and ( iii ) two species that share two , closely - related parapatric hosts ( g . obovatum and g . rubrum ) . statistical analysis shows that the two species associated with g . lanceolatum are not sister species , indicating the colonization of novel glochidion host in at least one lineage . behavioural observations suggest that all six species possess the actively - pollinating habit , thus none of the studied species has become a nonmutualistic ' cheater ' that exploits the benefit resulting from pollination by other species . our results parallel recent findings in ecologically similar associations , namely the fig - fig wasp and yucca - yucca moth mutualisms , and contribute to a more general understanding of the factors that determine ecological and evolutionary outcomes in these mutualisms .", "the remarkably high level of partner specificity is a hallmark feature of the leafflower\u2013leafflower moth mutualism . together with the fig\u2013fig wasp and yucca\u2013yucca moth systems , obligate pollination mutualisms provide some of the best examples of highly species - specific plant\u2013insect associations . however , the evolutionary processes underlying these patterns are poorly understood . the high degree of specificity in pollinating seed parasites is often regarded as the fortuitous result of specialization in their ancestors because these insects are derived from endophytic herbivores that are themselves highly host - specific . this chapter focuses on the comparison of the level of host specificity in epicephala to those of purely parasitic gracillariid relatives as a test of whether mutualism reinforces partner specificity . when interpreted with what is known in the fig and yucca systems , such an analysis serves as a useful approach to determine how partner specificity is shaped in coevolved mutualisms .", "* obligate mutualisms involving actively pollinating seed predators are among the most remarkable insect - plant relationships known , yet almost nothing is known about the chemistry of pollinator attraction in these systems . the extreme species specificity observed in these mutualisms may be maintained by specific chemical compounds through ' private channels ' . here , we tested this hypothesis using the monoecious breynia vitis - idaea and its host - specific epicephala pollinator as a model . * headspace samples were collected from both male and female flowers of the host . gas chromatography with electroantennographic detection ( gc - ead ) , coupled gas chromatography - mass spectrometry , and olfactometer bioassays were used to identify the floral compounds acting as the pollinator attractant . * male and female flowers of b . vitis - idaea produced similar sets of general floral compounds , but in different ratios , and male flowers emitted significantly more scent than female flowers . a mixture of 2 - phenylethyl alcohol and 2 - phenylacetonitrile , the two most abundant compounds in male flowers , was as attractive to female moths as the male flower sample , although the individual compounds were slightly less attractive when tested separately . * data on the floral scent signals mediating obligate mutualisms involving active pollination are still very limited . we show that system - specific chemistry is not necessary for efficient host location by exclusive pollinators in these tightly coevolved mutualisms .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "warning : the ncbi web site requires javascript to function . more . . .", "center for ecological research , kyoto university , 2 -

of 395 philippine breeding species , 137 ( 35 percent ) also breed in borneo . palawan birds exhibit strong differentiation at the subspecific level when compared with its nearest philippine neighbor , mindoro . this is in contrast to the other partial land bridge between borneo and the philippines , the sulu islands , which have not differentiated significantly from mindanao . borneo and palawan share twenty - three bird species that are not found in the rest of the philippines . the asian genera polyplectron , malacocincla , malacopteron , dinopium , aegithina , criniger , seicercus , and gracula are found only in palawan within the philippines ( dickinson et al . 1991 ) . the island forms an important bird migration route between borneo and the rest of the philippines for southern migrants ( davis et al . 1995 ) .", "this ecoregion corresponds exactly with the palawan eba ( stattersfield et al . 1998 ) . the eba contains twenty restricted - range birds , seventeen of which are found nowhere else on earth and five of which ( palawan peacock - pheasant [ polyplectron emphanum ] , grey imperial - pigeon [ ducula pickeringii ] , blue - headed racquet - tail [ prioniturus platenae ] , falcated wren - babbler [ ptilocichla falcata ] , and palawan flycatcher [ ficedula platenae ] ) are considered vulnerable ( collar 1999 ) . all these vulnerable birds are dependent on lowland and hill forest ( collar et al . 1999 ;

future monitoring will determine whether this is remains true .", "types and severity of threats habitat destruction is the main threat to biodiversity in the philippines , and palawan , though currently in better condition , is no different . logging and shifting cultivation ( kaingin ) are cited as the primary forces of habitat conversion . logging takes many forms , from industrial scale to smaller - scale operations that use water buffalo to haul logs out of the forest . mangroves are used locally for firewood , dyes , and tannins ( davis et al . 1995 ) , and they are sometimes removed to make way for fishponds ( quinnell and balmford 1988 ) .", "hunting and the wild pet trade are also significant threats in palawan . leopard cats have been hunted for their pelts and are sold when kittens as pets ( heaney and regalado 1998 ) . the palawan binturong is hunted for meat and as pets , and the pangolin is hunted for its hide ( quinnell and balmford 1988 ) . the palawan peacock - pheasant ( dickinson et al . 1991 ; collar et al . 1999 ) , blue - headed racquet - tail ( collar et al . 1999 ) , philippine cockatoos ( cacatua haematuropygia ) , and blue - naped parrots ( tanygnathus lucionensis ) ( quinnell and balmford 1988 ) apparently are suffering greatly from the pet trade . the final destination for these birds often is the united states ( quinnell and balmford 1988 ) .", "ornamental plant collecting , especially for the orchids ( phalaenopsis amabilis and paphiopedilum argus ) , pitcher plants ( nepenthes spp . ) , palms ( veitchia merrillii ) , and aroids ( amorphophallus spp . and alocasia spp . ) threatens some plant populations ( davis et al . 1995 ) .", "a valuable resin , known as manila copal , is collected from agathis dammara trees . this collection weakens the trees , and slackening production and disease combined with overexploitation are threatening the species ( davis et al . 1995 ;

sorry for the confusion here , but some people say zizina labradus otis , and others apparently zizina otis labradus . . . if this competition by the other taxon is happening , it would be crucial to know if they only compete for resources or also do interbreed in a viable , or non viable manner . in the former case it would be good to call them zizina otis oxleyi , in the latter case zizina oxleyi . even without the latter , it might be good to call them zizina oxleyi ( which many people do at the moment ) based on other clear separations . very interesting case , i will look further into it . thank you dunc for sharing .", "lycaena podarce c . & r . felder , [ 1865 ] ; reise fregatte novara , bd 2 ( abth . 2 ) ( 2 ) : 282 , pl . 35 , f . 22 - 23 ; tl : calidornia", "= plebejus podarce podarce ; pelham , 2008 , j . res . lepid . 40 : 270", "lycaena cilla behr , 1867 ; proc . calif . acad . sci . 3 ( 4 ) : 281 ; tl : california", "larva on androsace , soldanella [ h & r ; ] , saxifraga bronchialis , s . spinulosa , s . oppositifolia , androsace bungeana , a . septentrionalis , astragalus alpinus , diapensia , vaccinium [ baru ]", "argus aquilo boisduval , 1832 ; icon . hist . l\u00e9pid . europe 1 ( 7 - 8 ) : 62 , ( 5 - 6 ) pl . 12 , f . 7 - 8 ; tl : north cape", "larva on astragalus [ sprk ] , ( n . europe ) astragalus alpinus , ( yakutia , for wosnesenskii ?

27\u00b0c ( fah 1976 ) . galloway ( 1941 ) observed high mortality in barracudas in the florida keys during january 1940 , when water temperatures dropped to 6\u00b0c .", "salinity : juvenile s . barracuda are common in estuaries where salinity may fluctuate seasonally and during tidal cycles by = 20 ppt . adults are found primarily in nearshore and coral reef areas where salinities are stable at approximately 35 ppt .", "v . community ecology trophic mode : barracudas employ ram strike feeding , quickly lunging to force prey to into the jaws where sharp teeth and head shakes shear it into manageable pieces ( grubich et al . 2007 , porter & motta 2004 ) . the diet of s . barracuda consists mainly of schooling fishes , however studies of gut contents in both juveniles and adults have revealed solitary fishes and small numbers of crustaceans , mollusks and plant material ( de sylva 1963 & fahs 1976 ) . prey selection is indiscriminate and determined by the mouth length of the barracuda , but certain prey items are found more frequently . in florida , approximately 70 % of the diet of juvenile s . barracuda is comprised of gobies , herrings , sardines and silversides ( de sylva 1963 ) . in the indian river lagoon , the dominant prey item of young barracuda is the bay anchovy , anchoa mitchilli ( fah 1976 ) . nearshore and coral reef fishes such as ballyhoo , triggerfishes and mullet are the primary prey of adult barracuda ( de sylva 1963 ) .", "predators : the speed and size of adult s . barracuda allows for few predators . however , juveniles and small adults have been reported in the guts of the goliath grouper , epinephelus itajara , the dolphinfish , coryphaena hippurus and several species of tuna ( de sylva , 1963 ) .", "habitats : juvenile barracuda are commonly found in estuaries where they feed and take shelter in seagrass beds and among mangrove prop roots ( fah 1976 ) . solitary individuals or small groups of adults are typical on nearshore and coral reefs ( gudger 1918 ) .", "barracuda is the common name for the various marine , ray - finned fish comprising the family sphyraenidae of the order perciformes , characterized by a long , fairly compressed , elongated body covered with small , smooth scales and with a large mouth with strong , fang - like teeth . they are notable for their long size , reaching up to six feet ( two meters ) or more in length . there is only one genus of barracudas , sphraena , which has about 20 species ( nelson 1994 ) .", "despite an unfavorable reputation as dangerous to humans who are scuba diving , snorkeling , or swimming in their waters , unprovoked attacks by barracudas on humans are rare . rather , barracudas generally add value to human life as food and game fish and for the wonder they add to nature . ecologically , they are integral to many marine food chains , serving as the top predator in some tropical and subtropical waters and helping to maintain the balance of nature .", "barracudas ( family sphyraenidae and genus sphyraena ) are found in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide .", "barracudas have an elongate body and large mouth , with the lower jaw jutting out beyond the upper ( nelson 1994 ) . their strong , fang - like teeth are unequal in size and set in sockets in the jaws on the roof of the mouth . the head is quite large , pointed , and pike - like in appearance . the gill - covers do not have spines and are covered with small scales . the two dorsal fins are widely separated , with the first having five spines and the second having one spine and nine soft rays ( nelson 1994 ) . the second dorsal fin and anal fin are the same size and are situated on the top and bottom of the barracuda , equidistant from the tail . the lateral line is prominent and extends straight from head to tail . the spinous dorsal fin is placed above the pelvics . the hind end of the caudal fin is forked or concave . it is set at the end of a stout peduncle . the pectoral fins are placed low down on the sides . the barracuda also has a large swim bladder .", "nelson ( 1994 ) reports that the maximum length of barracudas is normally to 1 . 8 meters ( almost 6 feet ) , but are said to reach somewhat longer lengths . only some species of barracuda grow to a large size . the species that do are the european barracuda , barracouta or spet ( s . sphyraena ) , found in the mediterranean and eastern atlantic ; the great barracuda , picuda , or becuna ( s . picuda ) , ranging on the atlantic coast of tropical america from florida to brazil and reaching the bermudas ; the california barracuda ( s . argentea ) , extending from puget sound southwards to cabo san lucas ; the indian barracuda ( s . jello ) and the black - finned or commerson ' s barracuda ( s . commersoni ) , both from the seas of india and the malay peninsula and archipelago .", "barracudas typically have coloration that is dark green or gray above a chalky - white underbelly . sometimes there is a row of darker cross - bars or black spots on each side . the fins may be yellowish or dusky .", "barracudas occur both singly and in schools around reefs , but also appear in open seas . swimming in schools , or individually , they are voracious predators and hunt using a classic example of lie - in - wait or ambush . they rely on surprise and short bursts of speed ( up to 27 mph or 43 km / h ) to overrun their prey , sacrificing maneuverability ( rqcsr 2007 ) . they also exhibit some scavenger - like feeding habits .", "the larger barracudas are more or less solitary in their habits . young and half - grown fish frequently congregate in shoals . their food is composed of fish of all types . large barracudas , when gorged , may attempt to herd a shoal of prey fish in shallow water , where they guard over them until they are ready for another meal .", "like sharks , barracudas have long had a bad reputation as being dangerous to humans . however , unprovoked attacks on humans are extremely rare and millions of scuba divers , snorkelers , and swimmers spend time with them in the water without any incidents . barracudas sometimes do follow snorkelers and scuba divers across a reef , which can make one feel uncomfortable , but they are harmless unless provoked . because barracudas have a scavenger - like tendency , it has been theorized that barracudas tend to follow snorkelers because they believe that the snorkelers might be large predators and if they were to capture prey it would be easy for the barracudas to scavenge whatever may be left behind .", "being formidable hunters , they should be respected , as barracudas are perfectly capable of defending themselves against humans that harass them . handfeeding or trying to touch them is strongly discouraged . spearfishing around barracudas can also be quite dangerous , as they are strongly attracted by the wounded fish .", "there have been isolated cases where barracudas did bite a human , but these incidents are rare and are believed to be caused by bad visibility . barracudas will stop after the first bite as humans are not their normal food source .", "barracudas are prize fish , and can be caught either fly or sea fishing . they are extremely powerful , and require tough and strong rods .", "barracudas are caught as food and game fish . they are most often eaten as fillet or steak and have a strong taste like tuna or salmon . larger species , like the great barracuda , have in some areas been implicated in cases of ciguatera food poisoning ( usfda 2007 ) .", "agbayani , e . 2004 . sphyraenidae . fishbase ( eds . r . froese and d . pauly ) . retrieved december 2 , 2007 .", "humann , p . , and n . deloach . 2002 . reef fish identification : florida , caribbean , bahamas . jacksonville , fl : new world publications . isbn 1878348302 .", "nelson , j . s . 1994 . fishes of the world , 3rd edition . new york : john wiley & sons . isbn 0471547131 .", "norman , j . r . , and f . c . fraser . 1949 . field book of giant fishes . new york : g . p . putnam .", "reefquest centre for shark research ( rqcsr ) . 2007 . what ' s the speediest marine creature . biology of sharks and rays . retrieved october 26 , 2007 .", "rochefort , c . de . 1681 . histoire naturelle et morale des iles antilles de l ' am\u00e9rique enrichie d ' un grand nombre de belles figures en taille douce \u2026 avec un vocabulaire cara\u00efbe . rotterdam : r . leers .", "sloane , h . , m . van der gucht , and j . savage . 1707 . a voyage to the islands madera , barbados , nieves , s . christophers and jamaica , with the natural history \u2026 of the last of those islands to which is prefix ' d an introduction , wherein is an account of the inhabitants , air , waters , diseases , trade , & c . \u2026 ; illustrated with the figures of the things describ ' d . london : printed by b . m . for the author .", "u . s . food & drug administration ( usfda ) . 2007 . harzard , market , geographic and nomenclature information for great barracuda ( barracuda ; sphyraena barracuda ) . seafood products research center -

feeding ectoparasites and large mammals occur in africa . again we are left with the question , why did blood - feeding bats not appear in the old world tropics ?", "8 . to meet their energy needs , vampire bats need to drink about an ounce of blood at every meal , meaning they consume half their body weight during each 20 to 30 minute feeding session . their bodies have adapted to lighten that load , and their stomach lining rapidly absorbs much of the blood\u2019s water content and sends it to the kidneys so it can be excreted . the bats can process their meal so quickly that they may begin disposing of it before they\u2019re even finished with it , and start urinating just a few minutes into the feeding .", "blood - feeding is a risky business , particularly for a warm - blooded animal . among bats , the vampires are exceptional because they spend so much time caring for their young . young common vampires nurse for up to nine months , three months longer than flying foxes , which are many times their size , and at least six months longer than most other bats . female common vampire bats show no seasonal pattern of reproduction . but even though they may have young at any time of the year , the long period of nursing means that each female produces just one young a year .", "3 . when the bats feed , they use their teeth to shear away hair or feathers from a small spot and then cut into their victim\u2019s flesh with their sharp incisors . ( according to zoologists at chicago\u2019s field museum , even the teeth on old , preserved bat skulls in museum collections are sharp enough to cut someone handling them carelessly . ) rather than actively suck the blood from the wound like their namesakes , the bats let the physics of capillary action do the work . they lap at the blood and specialized grooves on their lips , tongues , and / or roof or their mouths suction it up . a protein in the bats\u2019 saliva called a plasminogen activator prevents the blood from clotting and keeps it flowing freely while they drink .", "10 . vampire bats have a few different tools for finding their food . they have well - developed senses of smell and , despite bats\u2019 reputation , keen eyesight . they\u2019ve also got heat - seeking faces \u2014their wrinkly , leaf shaped noses are loaded with nerves that are , in turn , loaded with proteins that are sensitive to the infrared radiation given off by warm - blooded animals . they also have finely - tuned hearing and specialized neurons that react only to the sound of breathing . they can even distinguish the breathing sounds made by different individuals , and may be able to remember the unique sonic components of an individual animal\u2019s breathing , allowing them to return to the same reliable source of blood night after night .", "2 . other bats with less grisly diets got a bad rap from european explorers in the americas . the europeans had heard stories about blood - drinking bats and encountered native people and livestock that had been bitten in the night and , without any real knowledge of the animals\u2019 diets , began labeling different bats as vampires willy nilly , usually applying the term to bigger and / or uglier ones . bats that lived on insects or even fruit were assumed to be vampires thanks to their appearance , and the association stuck when they were scientifically described and saddled with names like vampyrum spectrum and pteropus vampyrus . meanwhile , when a naturalist finally got his hands on an actual vampire , d . rotundus , no one one believed his assertions that it drank blood , and he made no mention of it in his description .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "this site uses cookies to improve performance . if your browser does not accept cookies , you cannot view this site .", "there are many reasons why a cookie could not be set correctly . below are the most common reasons :", "you have cookies disabled in your browser . you need to reset your browser to accept cookies or to ask you if you want to accept cookies .", "your browser asks you whether you want to accept cookies and you declined . to accept cookies from this site , use the back button and accept the cookie .", "your browser does not support cookies . try a different browser if you suspect this .", "the date on your computer is in the past . if your computer ' s clock shows a date before 1 jan 1970 , the browser will automatically forget the cookie . to fix this , set the correct time and date on your computer .", "you have installed an application that monitors or blocks cookies from being set . you must disable the application while logging in or check with your system administrator .", "this site uses cookies to improve performance by remembering that you are logged in when you go from page to page . to provide access without cookies would require the site to create a new session for every page you visit , which slows the system down to an unacceptable level .", "this site stores nothing other than an automatically generated session id in the cookie ;

fishing periods for cultural resources .", "together , cultural , objective , and complementary resources make up a fishery dynamic guaranteeing financial profits throughout the entire year . through these resources , the cooperative generates sufficient capital to encourage and take care of their workers , people in the community , and former fishermen members ( pensioners ) , as well as have a contingency fund ( for emergencies ) .", "having updated fish databases helps to clearly describe the development of fisheries in a given site . these results represent a base line of direct gains for the fishermen of the cooperative , helping the cooperative of punta abreojos to manage their fishing activities and ensure responsible fishing in the long run . it also helps researchers understand the fishery dynamics in a location from a unique perspective . more importantly , this type of fisheries monitoring in places like punta abreojos , where fishing is the main source of jobs and income , is a tool so that the cooperative can continue to work and enable the economic welfare of the whole community .", "* centro para la biodiversidad marina y la conservaci\u00f3n a . c . , la paz b . c . s . * * university of texas austin marine science institute + instituto polit\u00e9cnico nacional , ciidir unidad oaxaca \u00b1 scripps institution of oceanography , uc san diego", "we thank the cooperative society of fishing production of punta abreojos ( sociedad cooperativa de producci\u00f3n pesquera punta abreojos s . c . de r . l . ) , as well as the fishermen of punta abreojos , the community team that participates in and supports the gcmp . thank you to the fondo mexicano para la conservaci\u00f3n de la naturaleza a . c . , david & lucile packard foundation , walton family foundation and the helmsley trust foundation .", "j . jos\u00e9 cota -

round . the eastern inlets of auckland island and the bays within carnley harbour each have a small feeding stream and it is unlikely that more than one pair could have occupied any inlet and bay .", "brazilian merganser is a slender , dark , medium - sized bird , with a typically long crest on the rear of the head . back and wings are grayish brown . head and neck darker with metallic dark green reflections , better seen under sunlight . the breast is pale gray with narrow darker stripes ; the color of the underparts becomes paler towards the abdomen . the wing white mirror is visible during flight and it is also commonly observed when the birds are resting or swimming . the head crest is longer in the males than females . the bill is thin , narrow and serrated .", "for this particular issue , the brazilian journal of ornithology will publish articles and reviews on ornithology in general , with emphasis on neotropical birds . it is indexed in databases zoological records , biological abstract , scopus , and isi . the current ( june 2017 ) impact factor is 0 . 414 ) . the journal o", "mergus is the genus of the typical mergansers , fish - eating ducks in the seaduck subfamily ( merginae ) . the hooded merganser , often termed mergus cucullatus , is not of this genus but closely related . the other \" aberrant \" merganser , the smew ( mergellus albellus ) , is phylogenetically closer to goldeneyes ( bucephala ) . although they are seaducks , most of the mergansers prefer riverine habitats , with only the red - breasted merganser being common at sea . these large fish - eaters typically have black - and - white , brown and / or green hues in their plumage , and most have shomewhat shaggy crests . all have serrated edges to their long and thin bills that help them grip their prey . along with the smew and hooded merganser , they are therefore often known as \" sawbills \" . the goldeneyes , on the other hand , feed mainly on mollusks , and therefore have a more typical duck - bill . they are also classified as \" divers \" because they go completely under - water in looking for food . in other traits , however , the genera mergus , lophodytes , mergellus , and bucephala are very similar ; uniquely among all anseriformes , they do not have notches at the hind margin of their sternum , but holes surrounded by bone .", "as mentioned above , less than 250 of these birds are left . they came from a central and southern brazilian region , and eventually fell into nearby regions of both argentina and paraguay . however , the populations confirmed to remain are all to be seen in brazil as none have been reported in argentina for quite some time \u2013 reports are scarce in 2015 .", "our project\u00b4s intention was to find the dove merganser ( mergus octosetaceus ) and purple \u2013winged ground dove ( claravus godefrida ) which used to inhabit the higly endangered upper parana atlantic forest in paraguay . however , the loss of more than 90 % of forest cover due to the expansion of cattle ranching and agriculture had severely impacted these species . both species are categorized as cr ( critically endangered ) by the uicn\u00b4s redlist mainly because of habitat loss and pollution of rivers . currently the only stable population of the merganser is in the serra da canastra national park in brazil and in recent years there have been new records in argentina . in paraguay the species was last seen in 1983 .", "the brazilian merganser is one of the ten most threatened waterfowl in the world , with possibly fewer than 250 birds thought to remain ( 3 ) . this dark , slender duck has a shiny dark - green hood with a long crest , which is usually shorter and worn - looking in females ( 4 ) ( 5 ) . upperparts are dark grey while the breast is light grey , getting paler towards the whitish belly , and a white wing patch ( speculum ) is particularly noticeable in flight ( 4 ) ( 5 ) . the bill is long and dark ( 4 ) , shorter in the female ( 2 ) , and the legs are pink to orange - red ( 4 ) ( 5 ) .", "one such project is taking place at zooparque itatiba in brazil . conservation teams have been continuing their efforts to locate and track breeding brazilian mergansers through some of the most remote river habitat . when a healthy nest is discovered , the teams remove a few of the eggs and transport them back to zooparque itatiba , leaving the rest to hatch with the parents in the wild . in 2015 , the teams were able to collect a total of eight eggs from two different nest sites , and successfully raised all eight ducklings back at the zoo . should the habitat for wild brazilian mergansers continue to degrade , the birds housed at zooparque itatiba will ensure that this species does not disappear altogether . ideally , their offspring may also help bolster wild populations in the future .", "we thank the specialist work group for the conservation of brazilian merganser for valuable discussions and opinions on this manuscript . we also thank all the staff from instituto terra brasilis and funatura ( vivian s . braz and gislaine disconzi ) for collecting the samples at serra da canastra and chapada dos veadeiros , respectively ; dario a . lijtmaerand and pablo tubaro for providing the samples from argentina , bradley c . livezey for sending copies of his papers , and geoff m . hilton and paulo de tarso z . antas for useful suggestions that greatly improved this manuscript . the present study received grants from fapemig , cnpq , petrobras ambiental and funda\u00e7\u00e3o o botic\u00e1rio de conserva\u00e7\u00e3o da natureza , and followed all ethical guidelines and legal requirements of brazil for sampling and studying an endangered species .", "is considered to be one of the rarest and most threatened species in the neotropical region , yet little is known about its distribution and life - history . we studied the population of brazilian merganser in and around serra da canastra national park ( scnp ) in minas gerais , brazil , during 1996 , with additional observations from 1997 to 2000 . in this paper we report the sighting of previously undiscovered pairs and present some new behavioural data , including a description of calls performed by males and females , feeding behaviour , home ranges , parental care and population density . we also describe a previously unreported plumage of the young . a total of 39 individuals were recorded , comprising 12 adults ( six pairs ) and 27 young . brood size ranged from two to four ( mean 2 . 7 ) , being smaller than in other", "a large merganser with a dark brown head and neck , dark grey upper body , dull greyish - brown breast and abdomen , dark brown eyes , a long slender serrated yellowish - orange bill with black on the upper mandible , and orange legs and feet . the upper wings were slate grey , and the lower wing coverts were darker and banded white ; males were larger with an elongated crest .", "brazilian mergansers nest in holes of trees , and holes in rocks and in river banks . nest site for brazilian merganser , in rock cavity . the entrance to the nest cavity is located from 2 to 25 m above the water . only the female incubates , and she leaves the nest twice per day to feed . the male spends most time resting or feeding nearby , constantly vigilant , but sometimes flies off , departing the area for several hours . the female lays up to eight eggs , which are incubated for about 34 days . when leaving the nest , the female covers the eggs with her down feathers . the ducklings leave the nest in the following day after hatching . the ducklings are encouraged to abandon the nest by the mother\u012bs call . the family stays together all the time ; the parents constantly keep the young between them . the parents provide the ducklings with fishes and invertebrates . they feed their young directly into their beaks , or they place caught fish in the water after shaking it in order the ducklings can catch it . after 10 days of life , young were observed fishing on their own , reducing the need for food provided by their parents . the young are able to perform short flies when they are around 2 months old . they generally stay with their parents about six months or even longer . many young die in these first months of life .", "another potential , but very poorly studied , effect is the presence of exotic species of fish in the region . the peacock bass ( cichla sp . ) , along with other allochthonous species , commonly are introduced into the reservoirs and water courses . the peacock bass is also very common in fish - and - pay ponds . such predatory species have caused profound changes in the environments where they have been introduced , with the disadvantage that there are no effective processes to eradicate the species once it has settled in a host community ( fabio vieira 2002 , pers . comm . ) . though the peacock bass prefers to inhabit mostly still - water environments , it is possible to find it in river stretches . being an essentially fish - eating species , it may alter the dynamics of the native water communities as it becomes established . small native fish make up the brazilian merganser\u2019s basic source of food and any factor interfering with the supply may have serious consequences for its populations .", "mergansers were extirpated following polynesian settlement of new zealand and chatham islands . the auckland island population would have been severely diminished by predation by pigs and cats following their release onto auckland island in the 1820s , and possibly also by being a food for early sealers at the island . the earnest collecting of specimens for museums , especially in the 1890s , led to the last specimen being seen , and collected , in january 1902 , a mere 60 years after the merganser\u2019s initial discovery .", "their main distribution location seems to be within serra da canastra , where just under a fifth of the remaining population all remain . the last recorded ducks within argentina , for example , were in 2002 when they were found within the misiones . other than this , the animals are very much rare to be seen across the world as they have been ravaged by various different reasons . their habitats are diversely spread out as well , meaning that close interaction between groups of the merganser are no longer possible , which has contributed to their current state .", "a duck of slender proportion and a dark color , it\u2019s got a particularly long crest which tends to be a little bit shorter when you are talking about a female merganser . the upper body of these creatures tends to be dark grey , whilst the breast is a light grey color in contrast . one of the most striking things about these creatures , however , is the fact that they are mostly silent \u2013 when they do make noise , it almost sounds like a dogs bark rather than the traditional quack you would expect to hear from a duck .", "brazilian mergansers feed basically on small fish they capture during dives , although aquatic macroinvertebrates also contribute to their diet . very often , before diving , they search for their prey swimming with just their heads submerged . dives can last 15 to 20 seconds , and even 30 seconds in deeper pools . we have observed them catching insects flying around their heads . in the serra da canastra region , the most common fish species which serve as their food are lambaris and barrigudinho . stomach content analysis of individuals from misiones , argentina , showed they ate lambaris , ciclids , catfish , virolito , larvae of dobson flies and , probably , molluscs .", "we would like to invite participants of this ornithological congress of the americas to submit manuscripts to be considered for publication on a special volume of the brazilian journal of ornithology . we welcome review and case study manuscripts derived from the research exposed at the meeting . particularly , we would like to invite organizers of each symposium , as well as symposium\u00b4s participants , to submit a review manuscript on the topic of the symposium , which could have particular emphasis on the individual talks involved in the symposium . also , we would like to publish one study case per symposium . in addition to the manuscripts derived from symposia , we encourage other authors presenting their studies to submit manuscripts as a general submi", "there are some recent research on the conservation status of the species in its distribution area originally known . these studies show that the species is still under heavy anthropic pressures , including the region of the national park of serra da canastra where diamond exploration sector has been doing strong pressures to mine even in protected areas . ex situ conservation initiatives have been conducted by the brazilian government , researchers and breeders , and today there are , the only two individuals of the species that are officially raised in captivity from eggs collected in the wild . therefore i believe it is still incipient to change the status of the species to a threat condition \u201clower\u201d than the current one . especially because the conservation status of the species serves as an argument for compensation discussions as part of environmental projects", "the sexes of the auckland island merganser were similar to each other , but males were larger and had an obvious and elongated crest . the head and neck were dark brown , the entire upper body dark grey , and the breast and abdomen dull greyish -

footed bandicoot ) have now disappeared . for 13 years ( from 1997 to 2010 ) a protracted drought affected south - eastern australia . red gum and black box woodlands at neds corner station showed signs of extreme drought stress . in fact , the drought often made it hard to see how the decline of the property could be turned around .", "neds corner station has been transformed by the commitment and dedication of trust for nature . in the early years , the trust relied on devoted volunteer rangers who planned and began the conservation tasks needed to restore the station . the first task was to remove the threats to native flora and fauna . from the outset , trust for nature stopped grazing to allow the regeneration and growth of native vegetation .", "we needed to know what plants and animals existed on the property . a baseline flora and fauna survey was carried out shortly after grazing ceased to understand the condition of the property and to identify the species at threat .", "there is now a full - time land management team at the station . a property manager and ranger work hard to improve the health and condition of the native vegetation and to look after the facilities . rabbit control , revegetation and maintenance of assets ( for example , the buildings , fences and equipment ) are ongoing tasks . an administration officer supervises paid and unpaid visitors who use the accommodation facilities that cater for up to 30 people .", "trust for nature has completed a conservation action plan for neds corner station . the plan , facilitated by greening australia , identifies the conservation priorities of the property and wider local area to guide management activities . the plan was completed with the financial assistance of the nature conservancy and local conservation partners mallee catchment management authority , department of sustainability and environment and park victoria .", "the trust works with all sorts of different partners at neds corner station . the property is a place of rich indigenous and european history . local indigenous groups help to protect and conserve the cultural objects found onsite and to advise on management works . a number of the historic buildings have gradually been restored and now enable trust for nature to invite other partners and volunteers to come and see and participate in the work we do . it gives other people the opportunity to experience a special part of victoria where wildlife thrives .", "the protection of significant landscapes is in peter ' s blood . he grew up working on a property that eventually became part of mungo national park in new south wales . peter knows that others need to be inspired to help him do his job \u2013 without everyone ' s help he will not be successful . peter can impart stories about the land where he lives that will capture your attention . he will fascinate you with stories of contrast -

called \u201c lachesis syndrome\u201d , an alteration of the autonomic nervous system which manifests with profuse sweating , abdominal colic , nausea , recurrent vomiting , watery diarrhea , diastolic and systolic hypotension , and sinus bradycardia , together with sensorial disorders ( uncoordinated march , lapses of unconsciousness ) and serious hemodynamic alterations within 15\u201320 min after a bite [ 12 \u2013 19 , 22 ] .", "the bcl and the bl therapeutic antivenoms , and the monospecific al antivenom effectively neutralized the proteolytic activity of venoms from the 7 lachesis taxa investigated ( table 2 ) . the bl antivenom showed higher neutralization activity than the other antivenoms used in this study ( table 2 ) . the ac monospecific antivenom was only able to neutralize the proteolytic activity of l . melanocephala venom ( table 2 ) . the ab monospecific antivenom was unable to neutralize the proteolytic activity of any of the venoms ( table 2 ) .", "several toxic and enzymatic activities of the venom of lachesis muta melanocephala were studied . this venom has many similarities with that of l . m . stenophrys , although there are quantitative differences in venom activities , as well as in the immunodiffusion patterns of these venoms when reacted against polyvalent antivenom . this antivenom was tested for its ability to neutralize a series of toxic and enzymatic effects of l . m . melanocephala venom . a new method to study myonecrosis , based on the quantitation of residual creatine kinase in injected muscle , was used . antivenom was highly effective in neutralizing lethal , hemorrhagic , myotoxic , edema - forming , defibrinating , caseinolytic and fibrinolytic activities when venom and antivenom were incubated prior to the test or , in the case of edema - forming activity , when antivenom was administered before venom injection . on the other hand , when antivenom was injected i . v . at different time intervals after venom injection neutralization of lethality was good , although neutralization of local effects , i . e . hemorrhage and edema , was poor . these results indicate that polyvalent antivenom contains antibodies capable of neutralizing toxic and enzymatic activities of l . m . melanocephala venom . moreover , the partial inability of antivenom to neutralize local effects when administered after venom injection is probably due to the rapid development of these effects once venom is injected . pmid : 3672541", "except for the bpps , both polyspecific antivenoms efficiently immunocaptured all the components from l . stenophrys ( fig 2 ) , l . m . muta ( colombia ) ( fig 4 ) and l . m . rhombeata ( fig 8 ) venoms . in addition , the bl antivenom immunocaptured the venom components of l . m . muta from the brazilian localities cascalheira ( fig 6 ) and tucurui ( fig 7 ) . the apparent low recovery of pi - and piii - svmps ( eluting from the rp - hplc column at 40\u201342 min ) in the immunoaffinity captured fractions of the bcl and bl affinity columns ( figs 2 \u2013 8 , panels b and d , respectively ) may be ascribed to the high affinity of these venom proteins for the antivenom molecules , as has been demonstrated in a previous work [ 25 ] .", "/ laboratory animals : acute exposure / the ability of crude venom and a basic phospholipase a ( 2 ) ( lmtx - i ) from lachesis muta muta venom to increase the microvascular permeability in rat paw and skin was investigated . crude venom or lmtx - i were injected subplantarly or intradermally and rat paw edema and dorsal skin plasma extravasation were measured . histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cell was also assessed . crude venom or lmtx - i induced dose - dependent rat paw edema and dorsal skin plasma extravasation . venom - induced plasma extravasation was inhibited by the histamine h ( 1 ) antagonist mepyramine ( 6mg / kg ) , histamine / 5 - hydroxytriptamine antagonist cyproheptadine ( 2 mg / kg ) , cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin ( 5mg / kg ) , nitric oxide synthesis inhibitor l - name ( 100 nmol / site ) , tachykinin nk ( 1 ) antagonist sr140333 ( 1 nmol / site ) and bradykinin b ( 2 ) receptor antagonist icatibant ( 0 . 6mg / kg ) . platelet - activating factor ( paf ) antagonist pca4248 ( 5 mg / kg ) had no effect . lmtx - i - induced skin extravasation was inhibited by cyproheptadine , mepyramine , indomethacin and pca4248 , while l - name and sr140333 had no effect . additionally , both lachesis muta muta venom and lmtx - i concentration - dependently induced histamine release from rat mast cells . in conclusion , lachesis muta muta venom and lmtx - i increase microvascular permeability by mechanisms involving in vivo mast cell activation and arachidonic acid metabolites . additionally , crude venom - induced responses also involve substance p , nitric oxide and bradykinin release , whether lmtx - i - induced responses involve paf .", "/ case reports / / out of / 4 cases from costa rica , three of the victims died within 3 -

lb ( 150 - kg ) fish . tarpon are sexually dimorphic , and females reach much larger sizes than males .", "young - of - the - year tarpon occur in small stagnant pools and sloughs of varying salinity and have been reported from north carolina , georgia , florida , texas , caribbean islands , costa rica , and venezuela . in tropical areas , juvenile tarpon typically occur in mangrove habitats , often in water with low dissolved oxygen levels . tarpon occur in salinities ranging from freshwater to more than 45 parts per thousand and are capable of surviving temperatures of at least 105\u00b0f ( 65 . 6\u00b0c ) , but they suffer mortalities at temperatures of 50\u201355\u00b0f ( 10\u201312 . 8\u00b0c ) . large numbers of tarpon die during severe cold fronts off florida .", "anglers often detect the presence of schools of tarpon by observing individuals \" rolling \" at the surface . the tarpon ' s habit of rising to the surface and breathing air is unusual among marine species , although this practice is common among tropical freshwater swamp - dwelling fishes . breathing air is accomplished by way of a highly vascularized swimbladder that functions as an air - breathing organ . the swimbladder is an elongate , balloon - like sac located above the viscera and just below the backbone . in most fish species , the swimbladder acts as a buoyancy control mechanism . the fish can adjust the volume of air in the bladder and remain neutrally buoyant . in tarpon , this swimbladder is connected to the gut by a duct enabling the tarpon to gulp air and ventilate the swimbladder . young tarpon , when held in experimental chambers from which all of the dissolved oxygen has been removed , are able to meet their oxygen needs by breathing air . this adaptation allows tarpon to survive in water with low dissolved oxygen concentrations such as commonly encountered by juveniles in hot , stagnant mangrove marshes . experimental work also suggests that tarpon are facultative air -

round spawners , unlike tarpon from other areas . inactive or resting ovaries are rare in costa rica females , suggesting that females spawn repeatedly throughout the year and have no extended period of inactivity . in florida , tarpon spawning is seasonal and peaks between may and july . by august , most females are finished spawning . in the southern hemisphere , off the northeast coast of brazil , researchers have reported that tarpon spawn from october to january\u2014during the southern hemisphere ' s spring and summer .", "ripe tarpon ovaries are large and can contain up to 20 million maturing oocytes and many more small resting oocytes . \" oocyte \" is the proper name of a developing egg that has not ovulated and is not yet ready to be spawned . although hundreds of mature female tarpon have been examined during the spawning season , none have been caught in the act of spawning . this is probably because spawning occurs in areas not typically fished . even though the number of eggs released by a female in a single spawning event is unknown , the numbers of developing oocytes in the ovary suggests that their reproductive output is immense .", "tarpon are relatively long lived and can live more than 50 years . by age one , tarpon are about 1 . 5 ft ( 450 mm ) long and are common in rivers and the upper reaches of estuaries , where they remain until reaching sexual maturity . in florida , sexual maturity is reached at an age of about 10 years . after attaining sexual maturity , tarpon become more coastal in habitat and are most numerous around inlets and off beaches . large tarpon targeted by anglers in florida are typically from 15 to 35 years old .", "florida ' s fishery is intensely regulated , and anglers must purchase a $ 50 permit before harvesting a fish . since the establishment of the permit system in 1989 , the harvest of tarpon in florida has declined to fewer than 100 fish per year , and the fishery is now mostly catch - and - release . encouraging catch - and - release fishing for tarpon has been an effective management strategy , because the vast majority of released fish survive to be caught again . the sale of tarpon in florida is prohibited , but in most of their range tarpon have never been considered a desirable food fish .", "in central america and south florida , tarpon are the basis of economically important recreational fisheries . tarpon occur in a variety of habitats ranging from freshwater lakes and rivers to offshore marine waters , but large tarpon targeted by florida ' s fishery are most abundant in estuarine and coastal waters . in florida , the fishery is seasonal ; most tarpon are caught between may and july , although some fish are caught in all months . tarpon are known for their spectacular leaps from the water when hooked and for their willingness to enter shallow water and eat artificial baits . probably more than any other species , tarpon offer anglers in small boats an opportunity to pursue a large gamefish . tarpon are pursued by a large for -

recently i\u2019ve noticed a few behaviour change initiatives which involve something a little different\u2026 i\u2019m writing this post to \u2018think aloud\u2019 and see what comes of it .", "at first i called them \u201cdesign macguffin\u2019s\u201d * . dan hill uses the term in his book \u201c dark matter and trojan horses \u201d . this is based on the term often associated with alfred hitchcock\u2014although not termed by him\u2014 describing the object in a film which appears to be the focal point of a character\u2019s quest , yet lacks any real importance other than being useful narrative device . think about the suitcase in \u201cpulp fiction\u201d .", "but that didn\u2019t seem quite right . when dan hill talks about them , it seems as though the macguffin ( the device ) doesn\u2019t matter . but in the examples i am seeing , it does matter . perhaps i will just call it a \u2018design prop\u2019 .", "this design prop * is used in a behaviour change programme ( often public health or safety campaigns ) . the prop is so appealing to the audience that they will focus their attention on the acquisition of this prop , even if it means taking part in activities which may not have as much appeal , especially if offered without the prop . by taking part in the programme , the person gets access to the desirable prop , the programme benefits them , the programme achieves success . win win .", "the latest example i\u2019ve seen is called the \u201c \u201cp\u0113pi - pod\u00ae\u201d \u201c . the p\u0113pi - pod\u00ae is an approach being trialled in new zealand and queensland to help vulnerable babies have a safe place to sleep . the p\u0113pi - pod\u00ae is similar to the \u201c \u201cfinnish baby box\u201d \u201d which is given to new parents as part of a larger programme to teach safe sleep methods and reduce infant mortality . the box is loaded with baby clothes and other desirable items but can only be acquired by a parent who takes part in the related education programmes . a reduction in infant mortality is often attached to the boxes , yet it appears from research that the benefits come from programme attendance\u2014something which may not ever seem that attractive to the intended audience .", "perhaps there\u2019s a proper term for this ? it could be a \u2018ritual which changes identity\u2019 , a term i learned during dave snowden\u2019s cynefin framework training . in the course snowden spoke of a project which was intended to reduce the incidence of injuries at a truck depot . through research he found that the drivers were driving all night and not \u2018switching behaviours\u2019 when they arrived at the truck depot from \u2018driver\u2019 to delivery person\u2019 . because they didn\u2019t change behaviours , they would become injured when they lifted heavy items unsafely . by introducing a ritual to change the driver\u2019s identity from \u2018driver\u2019 to \u2018delivery person\u2019 , the number of injuries was reduced .", "another example of a design prop as physical habit is the way that many people open car doors in the netherlands . dutch drivers use the hand which is opposite to the car door to open it . in this way they look over their shoulder as they open the door and thereby see oncoming cyclists . this habit is tested in driving exams and has become normalised . as an example it loosely fits in with my categorisation as it involves getting people to do something which has more appeal than something else . other ways you might try to lessen the injuries to cyclists is to ask drivers to \u201clook when opening your car door for cyclists\u201d but believe me , this has not had the same cut through .", "i have been searching for a correct term for this thing but have come up dry . i thought it might be something related to behavioural psychology in a public health context , but have yet to unearth the right term . if you know it , please put me out of my misery so i can update this post .", "* other working titles : the innovation diffuser , behavioural affordance device , behaviour macguffins / programme props / trojan foals ( the cuter version of horses ?

fig . 2 ) , which is expected because galictis and lyncodon are sister genera ( sato et al . 2012 ) . as in g . cuja , lyncodon possesses the same set of intrinsic musculature of the manus ( i . e . , m . palmaris brevis , 4mm . lumbricales , m . abductor digiti v , m . opponens digiti v , m . abductor et opponens digiti i , 3mm . adductores digitorum , 10mm . flexores breves profundi , m . abductor digiti ii , and m . abductor digiti iv , while the m . flexor digitorum brevis manus is absent ) . next , we describe these muscles , highlighting the distinctive features of l . patagonicus , while the features not detailed here should be considered as identical to those described for g . cuja ( ercoli et al . 2015 ) .", "drawing showing the muscles of the manus , before a ) and after removal b ) the m . flexor digitorum superficialis , m . flexor digitorum profundus , m . abductor et opponens digiti i , m . abductor digiti v , m . opponens digiti v , and the mm . lumbricales .", "the m . palmaris brevis presents a different configuration compared to galictis . as usual , it originates from the fascia that covers the carpus at the level of the accessory carpal bone , but this muscle inserts at the level of the metacarpal i , via 2 tendons , onto an additional belly of the m . palmaris longus that corresponds to digit i .", "the 4mm . lumbricales ( fig . 2a ) are represented by independent bellies that originate from the tendons of the m . flexor digitorum profundus at the level of the carpus instead of the metacarpals , as was described for galictis . they insert via thin tendons onto the medial surface of the base of the proximal phalanges or the middle one ( for the case of digit iii ) .", "the m . opponens digiti v ( fig . 2a ) originates from the ligament distal to the accessory carpal bone , the medial surface of the accessory itself , and from metacarpal v and its proximal sesamoid , as was described for most of the cases of galictis , but these origins were purely aponeurotic ( versus mixed fibers ) . the insertion occurs on the lateral side of digit v , but its exact location could not be described due to some damage in the autopodium .", "the m . abductor digiti v ( fig . 2a ) originates from the accessory carpal bone and inserts onto the lateral sesamoid of digit v and the lateral aspect of metacarpal v , as was described in galictis , but the differentiation in 2 bellies ( denoted for galictis ) could not be checked in lyncodon due to damage .", "the m . abductor et opponens digiti i ( fig . 2a ) , as in galictis , extends from the radial sesamoid to the proximal phalanx of digit i . in lyncodon , the presence of an extra insertion onto the ventromedial aspect of metacarpal i ( observed in some specimens of galictis ) was confirmed .", "the mm . adductores digitorum ( fig . 2b ) extends from the transverse carpal ligament to the proximal end of the proximal phalanx of digits i , ii , and v , similar to that described for galictis . however , in lyncodon , the 3 muscles are independent from each other at their origins , the muscle for digit i is the smaller ( versus ii ) , and the insertion on digits i and ii are tendinous ( instead of fleshy , as occurs in digit v , and all cases for galictis ) .", "the 10mm . flexores breves profundi ( fig . 2b ) originate from the proximal area of the corresponding metacarpal of each digit , the plantar process of carpal bone iii , and the distal ligament of the accessory carpal bone , as in galictis . they insert via fleshy fibers onto the corresponding metacarpal sesamoids , as usual , but there is an additional insertion onto the base of the middle phalanx of digit iii .", "the m . abductor digiti ii , differing with respect to galictis , is composed of 2 bellies instead of only 1 ; one originates exclusively from the proximal sector of the lateral margin of metacarpal i ( not reaching the middle of this bone , as in galictis ) , and the other originates from carpal ii ( not observed in galictis ) . on the other hand , the insertion of both bellies occurs on the medial area of the proximal phalanx of digit ii instead of the medial sesamoid of metacarpal ii .", "the m . abductor digiti iv extends from the base of metacarpal v to the lateral aspect of the lateral sesamoid of metacarpal iv and metacarpal iv itself ( as in galictis ) , but the fibers of origin are mixed ( medially tendinous and laterally fleshy ) instead of only fleshy .", "in addition to the usual set of muscles and the variants recorded for l . patagonicus , a novel and intriguing series of 10 bellies , arranged as a pair per digit lying over the palmar aspect of the forepaw , was detected and is described here ( figs . 2b and 3 ) . the muscular nature of the fibers that compose these bellies was confirmed by histological analysis ( fig . 4 ) . this series of muscles , henceforth named mm . flexores digitorum proprii manus , is represented by a medial and lateral belly for each digit . they present a similar arrangement to that of the mm . flexores breves profundi and are located immediately distal to them . the bellies of this series run along the sides of the tendons of the mm . flexor digitorum profundus and the mm . flexor digitorum superficialis , on the palmar aspect of the phalangeal series . for each digit , the lateral and medial bellies originate via fleshy fibers from the distal end of the corresponding metacarpal sesamoid , and some tendinous fibers take origin from the distal end of the corresponding belly of the mm . flexores breves profundi , to which they are loosely attached . all of the bellies become tendinous at the level of the distal end of the proximal phalanx and insert onto the flexor tubercle of the distal phalanx , immediately lateral and medial to the insertion tendons of the m . flexor digitorum profundus ( figs . 2 and 3 ) .", "morphology of the mm . flexores digitorum proprii manus of lyncodon patagonicus . a ) arrangement and location of the bellies ( arrows ) in palmar view of the left forepaw . the lateral belly for digit v was already removed and the arrow indicates the origin area of this belly . see fig . 2b for a diagram indicating each muscle observed in the picture . b ) scheme of a single belly of the mm . flexores digitorum proprii manus ( fdpm ) , and its topographic relationships with the tendons of the mm . flexores digitorum superficialis ( fds ) , the mm . flexores digitorum profundus ( fdp ) , and osteological elements of a digit ( mc = metacarpus ;

[ 81 ] \u2013 [ 83 ] . the magnitude of offset between freshwater and terrestrial mammals can vary in response to changes in humidity , such that faunas experiencing drier conditions show a greater offset ( \u223c3 . 0\u2030 ) than those living under wetter conditions ( < 1 . 0\u2030 ) [ 84 ] .", "in combination with enamel \u03b4 18 o values , we also determined enamel \u03b4 13 c values of fossil species , which were used to infer diet and past environmental conditions . for herbivorous ungulates , enamel carbon isotopic compositions are enriched in 13 c relative to diet by \u223c14\u2030 [ 85 ] . variation in enamel \u03b4 13 c values among ungulate species is most strongly affected by the carbon isotopic composition of the plants they ingest . in the eocene , terrestrial ecosystems were dominated by plants performing c3 photosynthesis , a process that discriminates against the heavier carbon isotope ( 13 c ) , causing plant tissue \u03b4 13 c values to be considerably lower than those of plants exploiting other photosynthetic pathways ( c4 plants , cam plants ) [ 86 ] , [ 87 ] . the carbon isotopic compositions of c3 plants are more variable than other plant types and are strongly affected by temperature and aridity , causing c3 plants grown under hot dry conditions to have higher \u03b4 13 c values than those grown in cooler and wetter environments [ 88 ] , [ 89 ] . since enamel \u03b4 13 c values reflect the carbon isotopic composition of the plants in an animal ' s diet , consumer enamel \u03b4 13 c values can be used to infer past environmental conditions ( wet vs . dry ) as well as dietary information for extinct species .", "included genera . jozaria wells and gingerich , 1983 ;

' s [ 27 ] analysis , and continues to be debated in the literature on placental phylogenetics [ 94 ] . a placement with afrotheria was more parsimonious [ ( 3704 . 5 versus 3716 steps ( i . e . , constraint a1 versus e1 , with 0 . 5 weighting of ordered multistate characters with intermediate polymorphic states ; fig . s2a versus fig . s2c ) and 5758 versus 5773 steps ( a2 versus e2 , no weighting of ordered multistate characters with intermediate polymorphic states , fig . s2b versus fig . s2d ) ] , and all subsequent alternative constraints accordingly employed an atlantogenata , rather than an exafroplacentalia , constraint .", "the placement of cambaytherium within perissodactyla is consistent with bajpai et al . ' s [ 38 ] , [ 91 ] assessment of the genus . confusion surrounding the dental similarities that cambaytherium shares with perissodactyls and anthracobunids [ 102 ] is resolved by the placement of cambaytheriids and anthracobunids as closely related sister taxa of crown perissodactyla , thereby indicating that similarities to tethytheres are entirely due to convergence . bajpai et al . [ 38 ] argued that the middle eocene european genus hallensia , which was originally identified as a \u201ccondylarth\u201d [ 50 ] and later placed within perissodactyla as either a possible equoid [ 51 ] , [ 103 ] , might be a cambaytheriid . in our analyses hallensia was usually placed as a stem perissodactyl ( a1 , e1 , e2 ) or in an unresolved position relative to these taxa ( a2 ) . the monophyly of a clade containing anthracobunidae , cambaytherium , hallensia , radinskya , and \u201cadvanced\u201d perissodactyls is supported by 11 unambiguous synapomorphies ( table s2 ) . the clade containing anthracobunids , cambaytheriids , radinskya , crown perissodactyla , and hallensia was reconstructed as having been equivocally of either asian or european origin ( table s3 ) , while the anthracobunid - desmostylian - hippomorph - tapiromorph clade was optimized as having been of asian origin .", "we quantified the midshaft cross - sectional geometries of limb and rib bones of anthracobunids and other ungulates . long bone and rib cross - sectional phenotypes are a reliable indicator of vertebrate habitat , with most taxa occupying a shallow - water habitat displaying the greatest amount of bone per cross - section via thickened cortices and / or bone - filled medullary cavities [ 71 ] , [ 104 ] , [ 105 ] . in contrast , bones of terrestrial taxa typically display thin cortices and vacant medullary cavities . bone compactness values , a combined measure of cortical and medullary bone area [ 72 ] , indicate that anthracobune limb bones display values between 0 . 85\u20130 . 96 . this range is greater than values observed in a sample of fossil and extant artiodactyls and perissodactyls ( 0 . 42\u20130 . 83 ) , with the exception of modern hippopotamus ( 0 . 94 , 0 . 96 ) and rhinoceros ( 0 . 64\u20130 . 85 ) , and semi - aquatic pakicetid and remingtonocetid eocene cetaceans ( 0 . 93\u20130 . 96 ) ( fig . 4 ) . similar results were documented in rib elements ( table s7 ) .", "we also studied the oxygen and carbon isotope composition of structural carbonate in tooth enamel [ 75 ] , [ 106 ] for anthracobunids and coeval taxa from the early and middle eocene of india and pakistan ( fig . 5 , table s8 , table s9 ) . mammal fossils sampled from early eocene localities ( fig . 5c ) , including cambaytherium , spanned a narrow range of \u03b4 18 o values , and are consistent with occupation of a wet and forested habitat . enamel \u03b4 13 c values showed more than 3\u2030 range in individual values ( \u221212 . 4\u2030 to \u22129 . 1\u2030 ) , and , when corrected to present - day atmospheric \u03b4 13 c values [ 107 ] , suggest foraging in a relatively wet environment . conversely , taxa sampled from middle eocene deposits of northern pakistan displayed a much wider range of \u03b4 18 o values ( 21 to 27\u2030 ) and much higher enamel \u03b4 13 c values ( fig . 5b , c ) .", "two specimens of a . wardi collected from middle eocene deposits of northern india had low enamel \u03b4 18 o values ( 21 . 3\u2030 and 21 . 8\u2030 ) that approached values for aquatic taxa , but also overlapped with values for terrestrial rhinocerotoids ( 20 . 6\u2030 to 24 . 7\u2030 ) from the same formation . these low enamel \u03b4 18 o values are more consistent with a freshwater habitat for these individuals , but , again , low sample size complicates differentiating \u03b4 18 o values for these specimens from \u03b4 18 o values for taxa assumed to be fully terrestrial .", "anthracobunids have not previously been incorporated into taxonomically broad phylogenetic analyses of morphological data that incorporate the molecular evidence for placental supraordinal relationships . we tested for the possibility that anthracobunidae and various laurasian \u201ccondylarths\u201d ( phenacodontids , louisinids ) are not members of afrotheria by adding a number of living and extinct laurasiatherians to a morphological character matrix that has previously been employed to reconstruct afrotherian phylogeny [ 19 ] , [ 35 ] , [ 108 ] . we constrained relationships of extant taxa , based largely on the results of meredith et al . [ 27 ] , using the \u201cmolecular scaffold\u201d technique proposed by springer et al . [ 109 ] . we also employed several alternative constraints to obtain tree lengths for competing topologies .", "when continental geography is mapped onto the adams consensus in fig . 3 , crown and advanced stem perissodactyls ( including cambaytherium and radinskya ) are optimized as having originated in asia ( fig . 3 ) , while the perissodactyl stem lineage is of ambiguous ( but certainly laurasian ) continental origin . later colonization of north america by crown perissodactyls was presumably facilitated by global warming at the paleocene - eocene boundary [ 111 ] , [ 112 ] . afrotheria is unambiguously of afro - arabian origin on the adams topology , and the recently described paleocene african \u201ccondylarth\u201d ocepeia [ 58 ] was placed as either a stem paenungulate or as a stem atlantogenatan , depending on whether atlantogenata or exafroplacentalia was constrained ( respectively ) . the consistent recovery of the european louisinids paschatherium and teilhardimys as stem perissodactyls challenges the view that they are afrotherian macroscelideans [ 62 ] .", "some early tethytheres are thought to have had a semi - aquatic lifestyle ( proboscideans [ 81 ] , [ 116 ] , desmostylians [ 117 ] , sirenians [ 104 ] , [ 118 ] \u2013 [ 120 ] ) , but no evidence suggests that stem perissodactyls occupied an aquatic habitat . to reconstruct the ancient habitat preferences of anthracobunids , we analyzed bone geometry of the postcranial skeleton as well as stable isotope values within tooth enamel .", "we quantified the midshaft cross - sectional geometries of limb and rib bones of anthracobunids and other ungulates . anthracobune limb bones displayed bones that were more hyperostotic and therefore more compacted compared to most extant ungulates . exceptions included extant taxa that are known to frequently swim or wallow in shallow water habitats ( i . e . , hippopotamus and rhinoceros ) [ 121 ] , and fossil eocene cetaceans that are thought to be semi - aquatic and also occupy shallow water habitats ( i . e . , pakicetid and remingtonocetids ) ( fig . 4 ) . thus , anthracobunids display a variety of skeletal modifications consistent with taxa that exploit shallow - water habitats , including thickened postcranial elements and widened elements of the autopodium , in addition to large body size .", "we also studied the oxygen and carbon isotope composition of structural carbonate in tooth enamel [ 75 ] , [ 106 ] for anthracobunids and coeval taxa ( fig . 5 ) . the anthracobunids recovered from the kuldana formation ( anthracobune and obergfellia ) displayed enamel \u03b4 18 o values suggesting some evidence of aquatic habits , and enamel \u03b4 13 c values showed they fed on land . anthracobunids recovered from northern india displayed enamel \u03b4 18 o values consistent with occupation of freshwater habitats . although all sampled anthracobunids may have had some aquatic preferences , stable isotopic evidence alone is inconclusive as there is overlap in range of isotopic values between terrestrial and aquatic taxa .", "taken together , skeletal and isotopic evidence are most consistent with an interpretation of anthracobunids ( especially anthracobune ) as having had ecological preferences similar to those of modern rhinos and tapirs , but not exhibiting the same degree of commitment to aquatic habits as hippopotamus [ 84 ] , [ 122 ] . most rhinos and tapirs have a restricted range near permanent bodies of water in which they frequently wallow and wade [ 121 ] , and obtain most of their drinking water [ 84 ] , [ 122 ] . modern rhinos may be a good model for the anthracobunid lifestyle as both display thickened limbs and intermediate oxygen isotope values relative to hippopotamus and terrestrial ungulates .", "stable isotopic evidence also showed mammal fossils sampled from early eocene localities ( fig . 5c ) occupied and foraged within a wet and forested habitat . conversely , taxa sampled from middle eocene deposits of northern pakistan ( fig . 5b , c ) indicated shifts in the climate toward increased aridity . this climate change was most likely caused by the northward movement of the indian plate , which pushed these areas out of an equatorial zone of high precipitation in the middle eocene [ 123 ] , [ 124 ] . vegetation would have opened up , and shifted to a drier , tropical forest or savanna habitat .", "based on new dental , cranial , and postcranial material , our phylogenetic analysis is the first to suggest that anthracobunids are stem members of the laurasiatherian order perissodactyla , rather than members of the afrotherian clades tethytheria , proboscidea , or sirenia . the strictly asian distribution of anthracobunids is consistent with the isolation of afrotherian and laurasiatherian clades through the early paleogene [ 19 ] , [ 113 ] , while the phylogenetic result is consistent with the recent recovery of very primitive basal stem proboscideans such as phosphatherium [ 125 ] and eritherium [ 18 ] , from the early eocene and paleocene of africa . analyses of postcranial bones and stable isotopes also indicate that anthracobunids were large and lumbering , and suggest at least some taxa spent time in the water similar to modern rhinos , and that all known anthracobunids fed on land . our results therefore identify an old world radiation of large , non - cursorial , partly aquatic perissodactyls that convergently came to occupy a basal tethythere - like niche on the northern coast of the tethys sea ."]}

such a process is absent in h . californiensis . the smallest specimen examined here is in agreement with the description of juveniles of h . olivieri ( = h . californiensis ) . the largest specimens described by these authors ( 115 mm long ) correspond to the adults described here , but the prechaetal lobes on posterior chaetigers are slightly longer in our specimens . this difference may be due to specimen sizes , because the smaller the specimen , the more elongated is the prechaetal lobe . the same appears to be true for the rings of the proboscideal papillae ;

all part of a greater chain of islands shared with the turks and caicos islands . all of the islands in the bahamas are low and flat , with the highest elevation belonging to mt . alvernia on cat

like creature known as the lusca , both of which i have discussed here at mysterious universe before .", "the lusca is variously described as either a giant octopus , a sort of half shark - half octopoid abomination , or a squid - eel combination , and is said to lurk within the extensive underwater cave systems of the blue holes . the lusca is said to attack swimmers and even boats , sucking them down beneath the waves to be eaten within the dark caves . missing swimmers , underwater cave divers , and even flotsam of wrecked boats floating in the water have all been blamed on the lusca . purported victims of lusca attacks who survived their encounters have told of being grabbed by tentacles , and some have even reported welts reminiscent of sucker marks on their bodies after being attacked .", "one of the hallmarks of a lusca attack , according to witnesses , is that the water will often bubble or roil beneath the victim just before they are sucked under . this unique detail has caused speculation that rather than a giant octopoid monster , the victims could be succumbing to spontaneous whirlpools that are created when rapid tidal changes draw water through the blue holes . such whirlpools would certainly resemble the phenomenon of boiling water just before an attack , and they would surely be capable of pulling people under . however , such whirlpools certainly would not account for the actual sightings of the the monstrous lusca itself , nor would it account for the mysterious sucker marks on victims . the lusca remains a curious mystery .", "the island of andros holds mysteries on land as well as in the sea . stories have long circulated among the islanders here of a large mystery bird known locally as the chickcharney , which is only sighted within the ancient pine forests of andros island . the chickcharney is said to have an appearance very much like an owl , and is typically described as being around 3 feet tall and covered with fine feathers that resemble fur . the creature is said to have three fingers , three toes , and large , piercing red eyes situated on a head that allegedly has the ability to turn around nearly 360 degrees . there is also often mention of a prehensile tail that helps the arboreal birds to climb in the trees where they make their homes . chickcharney nests are reportedly composed of the tops of two pine trees tied together .", "chickcharnies feature heavily in the folklore of andros , where they are said to be elfin humanoid creatures that merely resemble birds rather than actual birds . the creatures are known to be very mischievous and on occasion quite aggressive . it is said that if a traveler happens to come across a chickcharney , it would be wise to treat it kindly . those who treat the chickcharney well and show respect are said to be rewarded with good luck , while those who don\u2019t , or even worse those who laugh at the creature , will meet with bad luck and hard times . if the chickcharney is especially offended , it is said that the creature will violently and forcibly twist the persons neck all the way around . andros islanders once were so wary of chickcharnies that they often carried brightly colored flowers or pieces of cloth in order to charm the creatures and dissuade them from attacking or causing trouble .", "one legendary story of the wrath of chickcharnies involves a former prime minister of england , neville chamberlain . according to the tale , chamberlain took over his father\u2019s plantation in the bahamas and upon arriving did a large amount of rampant land clearing . unfortunately for him , some of the decimated vegetation had been home to chickcharnies , which immediately sought revenge . the planation was a failure and financial disaster in the end , and locals have long attributed this misfortune to the vindictive chickcharnies wreaking havoc .", "the bahamian island known as isabela is also home to a rather curious historical oddity . it seems that during his journey to the new world , christopher columbus himself killed a mysterious serpent here . columbus\u2019s diary entry for october 21 , 1492 described how the explorer killed and later skinned a 5 foot long creature described as a \u201cserpent , \u201d that he had seen in a lake on the island . the next day , a similar serpent was reportedly killed in another lake on the island by martin alonso pinzon , who was captain of one of the ships under columbus\u2019s command .", "sadly , both specimens were never properly preserved so it is impossible to know just what kind of animals were killed . further complicating matters is the rather loose definition of the word \u201cserpent\u201d in the vernacular of the era . in columbus\u2019s day , the term \u201cserpent\u201d could be applied not only to large snakes , but to practically anything large and reptilian . crocodilians , lizards , and even mythical dragons were all equally known to be referred to as serpents . this muddies the waters a bit when searching for an answer to the mysterious diary entry because columbus could have killed an actual serpent by our understanding of the word , which is to say a giant snake , or it could have been a large type of lizard , a crocodile or alligator , or who knows what else . considering that the entry offers frustratingly few details , it is impossible to say .", "an expedition led by florida state museum\u2019s assistant curator , bill keegan , in 1987 uncovered the remains of an alligator in the ruins of a village on isleta believed to have been visited by columbus . it was suggested that the serpent described by columbus may have actually been an alligator , which were previously unknown to have ever inhabited the bahamas and so making it a rather interesting find in its own right . if alligators existed at one time n the bahamas , it could mean that they were merely imported from elsewhere , but could also represent an unknown population of the animal\u2019s historical range or even a new species . however , the presence of alligator bones in a village that columbus just happened to have visited is far from concrete evidence to link the alligator remains to the diary entry , and so what exactly was killed on that day long ago remains a mystery .", "columbus would later go on to log yet another mysterious sighting in the caribbean when in september 1494 , while sailing along the east coast of the dominican republic , he and his crew apparently sighted what was described as a gigantic turtle the size of a whale , with a long tail and fins on its sides . the enormous creature apparently was keeping its head out of the water . the dominican republic lies on the island of hispaniola , and giant turtles are not the only mysterious creatures that would call this place home . in fact , let\u2019s make hispaniola our next stop on our cryptid caribbean cruise .", "be sure to check out cryptids of the caribbean

believed that she lives mostly in the underwater caves and blue holes around the bahamas islands , especially around andros , the largest island in the bahamas .", "she is mean spirited and some islanders believe that she likes to drown divers and explorers who are not careful . some even believe that if your boat is over a bluehole she could pull it in down into the dark waters .", "the tidal currents of the inland blue holes are said to be the breath of lusca . as she breathes in , water pours into the caverns , in some cases forming a whirlpool , and when lusca breathes out , cold , clear water gushes up to the surface .", "but lusca is not all bad because the tidal flow also brings food for the real creatures that live in the blue holes , such as grouper , lobster and reef sharks and other fish . so , lusca has long been thought of as the guardian of the dark blue holes because she makes sure the fish that live there are fed .", "chickcharnies live in andros , the largest island in the bahamas . they are elfish , birdlike creatures with piercing red eyes . they have three fingers , three toes and a tail , which they use to hang upside down from trees .", "chickcharnies live in the pine forests and build nests by joining two pine trees together at the top .", "chickcharnies are peaceful but mischievous creatures and they like pretty colours . when you go sightseeing in andros carry flowers or wear bright colours to charm them . legend says if you see a chickcharnie and show it respect , you ' ll be blessed with good luck for the rest of your life . be careful not to sneer at it , however , or your head will turn completely around !", "an old legend has it that a man named billy bowleg - the great seminole medicine man - was adopted and trained by the chickcharnies . they took him when he was 14 and kept him for five years . when he returned to this people his reputation as a healer spread throughout the bahamas .", "anansi is a very popular figure in bahamian stories . he is a trickster , and is usually a spider - god , but in some stories he is human and in some stories he is part spider part human .", "anansi is very rebellous and sometimes he likes to cause trouble . he can do almost anything . he can marry the kings daughter , create wmoney out of thin air ; he can trick the devil and even cheat death . even if anansi loses in one story , you know that he will win in the next . he is very intelligent and quick - witted . no matter what happens to him he usually comes out well in the end . . . often because he was able to trick some one .", "many people believe that the ancient , sunken city of atlantis was in the bimini islands in the bahamas . huge , flat stones lying neatly about 20 feet under the clear waters of north bimini might be all that is left of the lost city of atlantis . they look like a road and are known as bimini road ."]}

found in karnameye ardeshir babakan ( see farahvashi , 2007 , p . 30 ) . the reason for choosing razmafzar and not zinafzar for this historical martial art is that it deals not only with cavalry techniques and tactics but also with infantry techniques and tactics . so it is a more general term encomassing both fields . although the fomer has received some cursory look , the latter has been completely ignored in the studies of martial hertitage of iran / persia . it entails all techniques which are documented in manuscripts , poems , battlefield accounts , miniatures , arts , stone

turned my attention to a detailed study of these weapons .", "fap : one of the unique things in persian archery and swordsmanship is your detail to language \u2013 in tracking a lexicon of martial terminology or technical vocabulary , that can be found in non technical literature and then comparing that to iconographic depictions of the same actions . this is an area that is still awaiting more serious attention in historical european martial arts ( hema ) . can you discuss the process you used in going about this ?", "fap : hema practitioners are fortunate in having a a larger number of technical works , \u201cfight books\u201d , on which to base their reconstruction . is there a similar body of persian martial texts to draw from ?", "khorasani : yes , there are . i have presented many complete manuals in my last book . five complete ones on persian archery . one on mounted lance fighting . one on spearfighting on foot . three on war wrestling . one on swords . as we are talking , i have received some new ones . this area has been neglected for years . i have received new manuscripts on archery , swordsmanship , mounted combat , etc .", "fap : in the west , many traditional martial arts , particularly \u201caristocratic\u201d or \u201cchivalric\u201d ones became extinct in the 18th and 19th centuries , and have had to be reconstructed . how does this compare

expressed in the javanmardi code which is similar to european chivalric code or japanese bushido . we have a living tradition of zurkhane ( house of strength ) . wrestling in iran is considered as a sacred sport , where the mat is still considered a place to respect and to be respected and one needs to show humbleness and also help people in need . my project of razmafzar is based on academic reconstruction of techniques in manuscripts , miniatures and reliefs . but it does not stop there . as i have shown in my last book , the tenets and training methods of the house of strength will be integrated in it . additionally , we have over 24 styles of traditional wrestling in iran , we have sword dancing , we have different stick fighting methods in iran . they are in the process of being researched . we will make comparative analysis and then set up a big data bank and integrate them in razmafzar as well .", "wrestling remains an important sport , fighting tradition and cultural treasure in iranian culture even today , and was considered the basis of persian warrior training .", "fap : at the same time , there are many european folk traditions , particularly for wrestling and stick or knife fighting , that have survived . in persian archery and swordsmanship you touch on this with traditional iranian wrestling or varzesh pahlavani . can you tell us a little about pahlavani \u2013 both as it exists now and as it might have related to earlier persian fighting arts ?", "khorasani : the house of strength symbolizes a sacred place where practitioners not only develop strength , but they need to learn javanmardi rules . they need to be role models for the young generation . wrestling is one of the most effective combat systems as proven again and again . this plays a major role in iran .", "khorasani : yes i am fortunate enough to be in contact with leading pahlavans in iran and i trained and even documented their training in the house of strength . they are greatly interested in razmafzar .", "khorasani : yes , without name dropping , my students and friends know that . i hold three black belts , a 4th dan in one of them , the others 2nd dan . i have trained and competed in many full - contact sports such as boxing , muay thai and of course wrestling . i experimented with bjj and trained in a team . besides i also trained in a japanese koryu sword art extensively . but i have always wrestled and love this sport . wrestling has helped me the most , as this is the tenet of persian armored and unarmored fight . but i have to say that all martial arts and fighting i have done have played a part , by helping me universal principles of combat , like distance and lines of attack and defence . i have to say i love realistic and full - contact sparring and think that is important in all martial arts , including swordfighting .", "a persian warrior should be able to grab and throw in close range at anytime . and then of course to deliver

west or indians , such as the sikh gatka or shastar vidiya to the east ?", "khorasani : well possibly , but as i have not trained in indian or arab arts , i cannot pass judgments . what i can say is that there always commonalities with certain arts , especially when the arms and armour are similar , but i would say that what i know defines persian arts is an emphasis on developing strength , stamina , power and only then techniques . this is why wrestling plays a crucial role \u2013 it trains the body that is at the core of the entire art . a persian warrior should be able to grab and throw in close range at anytime . and then of course to deliver fast and powerful blows with his weapons .", "fap : you have chosen to create an international research and development team to develop

the forested slopes of the rockies , from the steaming jungles of indonesia and the crags of the himalayas to your very own living room , cats prowl our planet . some are large and imposing , celebrated for their predatory power . others are small and elusive , their spots blending into the shadows . not to mention our familiar moggie companions that purr and yowl for a tender back scratch . at whatever size , and whatever form , we seem to have limitless adoration and fascination for the felines that inhabit our planet . our affection for them runs so deep that we\u2019re even transfixed by those that slipped into extinction long ago . there is no more potent symbol of the ice age than smilodon fatalis , the great saber - toothed cat preserved by the hundreds in the thick muck of the la brea asphalt seeps . living or dead , we love cats .", "but where did cats come from ? they did not spontaneously burst from the grass to ambush their prey . the world\u2019s cats , both large and small , wild and domestic , have as deep and circuitous an evolutionary history as any other species . and while they\u2019re all consummate predators , the cat family has taken a variety of forms . their remarkable flexibility has allowed them to flourish , whether in the shape of lanky speed demons like cheetahs or the extinct sabercats who stalked baby mastodons , or domestic tabbies that are the scourge of backyard wildlife . cats have always been malleable beasts , changing with the shifts in climate and habitat that the earth has undergone since their origin over 25 million years ago . and while there are various points at which we could start the great cat tale , let\u2019s begin with one of the worst days in the planet\u2019s history .", "exactly what the founder of the cat family looked like is unknown . the fossil record , as charles darwin once wrote , is like a stone book for which we only have a few words or sentences in an incomplete array of chapters . this makes it all the more difficult to pin down precise ancestors , especially the further back in time you go . therefore paleontologists look for animals that have what they call transitional features \u2013 traits that bridge gaps between groups and act as proxies for those ancestors , tracing the chaotic route of evolution from the present way back into the past . for cats , that search has led fossil experts to a little mammal called proailurus . the naturalist henri filhol named this extinct beast back in 1879 from fossils found in france , and even then he could tell that the mammal had something to do with the origin of felines : proailurus means \u201cfirst cat . \u201d", "a 20th century reconstruction of smilodon , the great sabertoothed cat . | credit : the prelinger archive", "not all sabercats were exactly alike . one of the earliest , the 15 - million - year - old paramachairodus from europe , was about the size of a leopard and had relatively short canines compared to its later relatives . much closer to us in time , from 2 . 5 million years ago to about 10 , 000 years ago , the famous smilodon line had species that exceeded a siberian tiger in size and grappled prey to the ground with burly forelimbs . the much more slender homotherium had shorter canines and a rangier build better suited for running after victims . then there was xenosmilus \u2013 the \u201calien knife\u201d \u2013 who mixed short , broad sabers with a muscular build , mixing and matching traits seen in the smilodon and homotherium lines . there were many ways to be a sabercat .", "those fearsome teeth have long had a hold on our imagination . so much so that there\u2019s been no shortage of ideas about how sabercats used their fangs . over the years these cats have been cast as stabbers , armor - piercers , and even blood - suckers , but the modern consensus is that smilodon and its relatives used their extended canines to slice through the soft parts of their ancient prey . a sabertoothed bite to the neck or belly of a victim would have caused catastrophic blood loss , if not immediate death .", "the last of the sabercats died out about 8 , 000 years ago . why they disappeared is a mystery . while art works , museum displays , and movies have often depicted the cats trying to take down giant sloths and mammoths , recent studies have suggested sabercats preferred mid - sized prey such as camels and baby mastodons . still , it seems that these cats specialized in hunting the megafauna that once flourished during the last ice age , and when many of these creatures died , so did the cats . for the first time in over 20 million years there were no more sabercats , although , given how many times they\u2019ve evolved , it\u2019s likely that something resembling smilodon could eventually evolve again . for now , though , the world belongs to the short - fanged cats .", "the felids we know \u2014 and love all the cats we know today \u2013 from the biggest siberian tiger of the frigid forests to the tiny margay of the american tropics \u2013 are felids . they split from the sabercats over 20 million years ago , and today represent about 40 distinct species spread across the americas , europe , africa , and asia . of all the wild cats , though , it\u2019s the big cats that get the lion\u2019s share of our attention . despite sharing a large body size , though , not all \u201cbig cats\u201d are close relatives . there are two subdivisions of living cats . one group , the pantherinae , includes tigers , lions , jaguars , leopards , and snow leopards , as well as the smaller clouded leopards ( the most ancient lineage of the pantherine group ) . a second group \u2013 the felinae \u2013 includes cheetahs and cougars in addition to the comparatively diminutive fishing cats , sand cats , jaguarundis , and their relatives . the cat family tree is a tangle of surprising connections .", "in terms of the world\u2019s beloved big cats , though , paleontologists have recently started to zero in on where they came from . in 2013 , paleontologists working in tibet announced the discovery of panthera blytheae . up until the cat\u2019s discovery , the oldest known pantherine cats were thought to be from the 3 . 6 million year old bedrock of tanzania . panthera blytheae moved back the group\u2019s origins to older than 4 . 4 million years , and in a place that wasn\u2019t expected . big cats were thought to have originated in africa , but the recent discovery seems to point to asia , and , more specifically , the tibetan plateau . other mammals \u2013 such as woolly rhinos and himalayan blue sheep \u2013 seem to have gotten their start in the same place , leading paleontologists to suggest that mammals whoevolved in this chilly place developed adaptations for cooler conditions , which allowed them to spread outward and thrive as the planet started to go through the ebb and flow of ice ages . this doesn\u2019t mean that panthera blytheae was the direct ancestor of today\u2019s lions and tigers , but the cat points to a deeper and more complex story for our favorite carnivores than anyone previously knew .", "of course , there\u2019s more to cat evolution than the backstories of fierce sabercats or lions teaming up to take down water buffalo . many of us live with cats . the aspca estimates that there are between 74 and 96 million domestic cats in american households alone . that number even outstrips the count for dogs \u2011 our supposed \u2018best friends\u2019 . you may even be feeling the rumble of your feline companion\u2019s purr on your lap as you read this . how did this special connection between our species and a fuzzy carnivore with sharp teeth and retractable claws come to be ?", "our inadvertent partnership with cats changed them just as they changed our daily lives . biologists have even been able to see this in cat genes . on the surface , the feline that struts around your home doesn\u2019t seem much different from their wild counterparts . ( this is part of what makes feral cats such an ecological nightmare \u2013 they\u2019re adept hunters of native species that has led countries like australia from banning outdoor cats . ) but get down into the dna and biologists can see that our favorite pets show at least 13 genetic markers that distinguish domestic breeds from wild ones . some of these differences are associated with behavior , such as changes in when cats feel fear or how they\u2019re able to learn when provided food as a reward , showing how their brains changed as they came in to settle down with us .", "looking back at our own history , it may seem a little strange that we keep cats so close to us . the very first humans evolved in africa over six million years ago , and by then there was a wide array of sabertoothed and non - sabertoothed cats on the scene . some human fossils \u2013 such as the skull of one of our australopithecine cousins dubbed sk - 54 with two puncture marks matching the tooth width of a leopard \u2013 indicate that cats even ate some of our relatives . coming down from the trees meant that we were entering a world ruled by cats ready to pounce from the grass . we evolved alongside cats , undoubtedly fearful as well as fascinated . for while each cat species differs , they all share elements of the same grace and charm we\u2019ve admired for as long as human memory can trace back . through our own history we\u2019ve been cat food , stolen their kills , admired them from afar , treated them as gods , and , unfortunately , brought far too many to the brink of extinction . if we truly love cats as much as our culture professes we do , then the best we can do to honor them is let cats continue their 30 million year evolutionary journey into the future .", "brian switek is a freelance science writer and author of the books my beloved brontosaurus , written in stone , and prehistoric predators . he also writes the blog laelaps for scientific american , and when not writing about fossils he can be found helping museum and university crews excavate fossil wonders across the western deserts .", "striking out in the love department ?

and an additional third spot on the tip of the tongue in alauda , calandrella , some certhilauda , eremophila , galerida , and lullula . after hatching , larks are covered with scanty down on their foreheads , napes , backs , shoulders , wings , and thighs .", "5 . 9 in ( 15 cm ) ; male 0 . 7\u20131 . 2 oz ( 21\u201335 g ) ; female 1 . 1\u20131 . 2 oz ( 30\u201335 g ) ; smaller and more slender than skylark and crested lark . plumage buff brown , upperparts and chest streaked , distinguished from other larks by broad , white supercilium which continues to nape . black - and - white pattern of alula ( first digit of wing ) feathers very conspicuous . crown feathers can be raised to a small crest .", "to attract a female and mark his reproductive territory , the male horned lark will engage in a \" song flight \" ( cornell laboratory of ornithology , 2001 ) . he flies quickly up to eight hundred feet above the ground , and circles for several minutes . while circling , he sings . after hovering , he dives straight toward the ground with his wings closed . just before reaching the ground , he opens his wings , catches air and lands softly in his territory . these birds are monogamous .", "the horned lark\u2019s nest is a basket woven of fine grass or other plant materials and lined with finer material . two to four days after preparing the site , she begins weaving her nest from grass , small roots , shredded cornstalks , and other plant material , then lines it with down , fur , feathers , fine rootlets , even lint and string . the nest cavity diameter is about 3\u20134 inches ; the inside nest diameter is about 2 . 5 inches and its depth about 1 . 5 inches .", "early european settlers named the magpie - lark after two groups of northern hemisphere birds that they were familiar with ; the magpies and the larks . however , they aren ' t actually like either of them . they are most closely related to a group of birds from the east coast of australia called the monarchs . magpie - larks are mostly seen foraging in pairs , however , outside of the breeding season , flocks of as many as a hundred or more birds may form in search of food sources .", "lark has been providing pet sitting and dog walking services for us for many years ( i have two dogs and two cats ) . when i go out of town and she is staying in our home i know everything will be taken care of and when i return the house is the same as i left it and the animals are very happy . it is wonderful to leave with no guilt because i know lark loves them as much as i do . when she walks my dogs they come home tired and happy . i trust that she loves my four legged kids as much as i do and she shows it in the time and attention she gives them . and a final testiment to the love she has for my animals is that she was with me when we had to put our lab down two years ago . she loved him as much as i did and he needed her there at the end . you can ' t ask for better love and support of your four legged kids than that !", "6 . 7 in ( 17 cm ) ; male 1 . 8\u20131 . 9 oz ( 52\u201355 g ) ; female 1 . 6 oz ( 45 g ) . strong lark with large head . short but massive bill most conspicuous . blunt , toothlike projection on middle of lower mandible fits into notch on upper mandible . upperparts uniformly pink / gray - brown , chest to vent with large black spots , sides of head blackish , throat and eye - ring white ; plumage of females of less contrasting color and not so heavily streaked .", "as far as one knows , courtship behavior is displayed on the ground . the male hops and steps around the female in upright posture spreading and cocking its tail - feathers . the undertail - coverts are presented to the female ( they are entirely black in the black and the black - crowned sparrow - lark ) . the wings are drooped and also spread to some degree quivering slightly . the crown feathers are raised even in species without elongated crest feathers . during display , the male utters song fragments . occasionally , the male presents food items to its mate immediately before copulation ( courtshipfeeding ) .", "4 . 5\u20134 . 9 in ( 11 . 5\u201312 . 5 cm ) ; male 0 . 5\u20130 . 6 oz ( 14\u201316 g ) ; female 0 . 4 oz ( 12 g ) ; one of the smallest lark species . sparrow - larks , like finches or sparrows , have a proportionally large head and a strong conical bill . sexes are dimorphic with respect to plumage color . female mainly pale brown and streaked , male with white forehead , cheeks , sides of neck , and collar of nape . crown , stripe through eye to base of bill , and lower border of cheek black . underparts entirely black , upperparts grayish brown ."]}

term public participation ( \u201ccitizen science\u201d ) projects make it possible for observations made by many different people to be pooled and analysed as a whole [ 6 ] \u2013 [ 10 ] . they provide the best opportunity for assessing population trends in species such as the secretarybird . the first and second southern african bird atlas projects ( sabap1 , 1987\u20131992 , and sabap2 , 2007\u2013present ) offer two snapshots of avian distribution in south africa approximately 15 years apart [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] . the coordinated avifaunal roadcounts ( car ) project ( described below ) , was established in the western cape in 1993 , by 1998 had expanded to cover much of south africa [ 13 ] , and in 2014 was ongoing . we examine the information provided by these datasets for useful insight into the status and ecology of secretarybirds .", "secretarybirds feed on snakes , lizards , grasshoppers , mice , birds eggs & the occasional small mammal . it was once thought that snakes were the primary diet ( the latin name translates as \" archer of snakes \" ) , but recent studies indicate that snakes make up only around 2 % of the diet . when feeding on snakes , they ensure are dead prior to eating , as they are not immune to the snakes poison . the secretarybird kills its prey by stamping on it , accurately aiming the rear talon at the skull . occasionally , aided by their height , they will pick the prey up & kill it by dropping it . it is often attracted to bush & grass fires , where it will feed on small animals that failed to avoid the fire . unlike other raptors , they have short stout toes that are unable to grasp .", ") . the main exceptions were eastern karoo ( winter ) , north - eastern eastern cape ( winter ) and steenkampsberg ( both seasons ) . the eastern karoo result may seem surprising , because the sign tests indicate that a preference for natural habitats was expressed on a highly significant majority of routes . however , the proportion of available habitats that were transformed was extremely low ( less than 2 % ; unpublished data ) , so a similarly low proportion of birds needed to be seen on transformed land for the jacobs index to indicate that they were expressing a preference for that habitat . the karoo biomes are semi - desert , and in general the land is too dry for cultivation or pastures . where crops or pastures are grown , the land is usually irrigated , which may cause the biomass of potential secretarybird prey species ( rodents , reptiles , small birds , insects ) to increase . if this is the case , it would make sense for secretarybirds to prefer transformed habitats where they are available in the karoo . in fact secretarybirds are thinly distributed in the karoo , preferring grassland and savanna habitats", "habitat selection in relation to habitat availability was analysed by comparing the proportions of natural and transformed land available to the proportions of birds seen in each type of land in each precinct . the proportions of natural and transformed land available were calculated using all three nlc maps . all classes of land other than natural vegetation classes and waterbodies were combined to form a single \u201ctransformed\u201d land class , and the remaining categories were combined to form a \u201cnatural\u201d class ( man - made and natural waterbodies , including wetlands , are not distinguished in the maps ) . a caveat to this analysis is the distinction between transformed , modified , and natural land [ 3 ] . land classified as \u201ctransformed\u201d is that on which the vegetation structure has been completely altered , e . g . pastures and cultivated fields . the \u201cnatural\u201d habitats mapped in the national land - cover maps are in fact mostly modified habitats , i . e . habitats in which the overall structure and main components of the natural vegetation remain , but in which important changes have been made , e . g . the naturally occurring community of herbivores has been replaced by livestock . in 1989 it was estimated that only 7 % of south africa ' s land surface remained fully natural and undisturbed [ 27 ] . thus in these analyses when we refer to natural habitats , we are in fact mostly referring to modified habitats . however , the extent to which they had been modified and to which they differed functionally from natural habitats , from the perspective of a secretarybird , would be variable .", "html public \" -

turn to present her claws . this courtship behavior is very similar to that of other birds of prey . on the ground , their displays are very crane - like with the two birds dancing around with their wings outstretched . sometimes small groups of secretary birds will all join in this ground display behavior . after courtship displays , mating will usually take place on the ground , although some pairs mate in trees .", "may breed throughout the year , although there are peaks in breeding from august to march . both the male and female will construct a large nest on a flat - topped tree ( usually an acacia tree or some other thorny tree ) . the nest is usually a saucer - shaped platform made of sticks and lined with a thick layer of grass , wool , dung , and other such materials . a pair of secretary birds will usually reuse the same nest for many years , adding to the structure each year to create a nest that can range from 1 . 5 to 2 . 5 meters in diameter . a frequently reused nest will be abandoned if the structure becomes too large and heavy to be supported by the tree and seems likely to collapse .", "the female lays a clutch of 1 to 3 eggs , with each egg laid two to three days apart . the eggs are chalky -

independent offspring to join in their hunts and share the nest tree as a roost . it is important to note that juveniles are not dependent on the parents during this time . they are just temporarily sharing a territory . two months is the average amount of time that independent juveniles are allowed to remain in the parents\u2019 territory before being chased away so that the parents can breed again .", "is sometimes solitary , but is more often found in pairs or family groups consisting of up to five individuals . larger aggregations of secretary birds may form near an abundant food source or a watering hole , but these groups do not remain together long . secretary birds become active about two hours after the sun has risen , when the grass is no longer wet with morning dew . these birds spend the day walking around and feeding until late afternoon , at which point they return to their roosts . secretary birds prefer to walk rather than fly , and average about 20 to 30 km a day on foot . when hurried or confronted with a threat they run before taking flight . when they do fly , they fly well and often at great heights .", "a pair of secretary birds defends an area that can range from 20 to 500 square kilometers depending on the density of secretary birds and food resources in the area . any conspecifics caught intruding in a pair ' s territory will be chased out forcefully .", "is generally sedentary and will remain in its own territory , but they are sometimes nomadic . in most cases , these nomadic tendencies are caused by a search for food .", "secretary birds are generally silent . when they do call , they typically give a deep , trisyllabic croaking wail that can be heard for quite some distance . this call , along with a drawn - out growling sound , is used in conjunction with aerial and ground displays during the courtship process . a softer version of the main call is used when feeding young . an occasional whistle is given from time to time . the young have their own calls to solicit food from their parents , which start off as a quiet squealing , then becoming a loud ' chok -

iv . sauropod systematics are currently unresolved regarding basal forms such as cetiosaurs and euhelopodids , but agustinia shares several characters with diplodocoids and titanosaurids , which would place it in the neosauropoda .", "due to the fragmentary nature of its remains , agustinia ' s classification is unclear ; it could be either a diplodocoid or a titanosaurian . however , its back plates have recently been redescribed as likely rib or hip bone fragments instead , and its status as a discernible species has been put into question by some .", "in this article titled 15 interesting agustinia facts were are going to learn about an armored titanosaur \u2013 a sauropod that has a pretty unusual name . why it was named so ? what kind of armor did this dinosaur have ? when and where did it live ? this article is going to answer all these questions . it will be a quick and short article as usual because not much information is available on this extinct creature .", "titanosaurids and diplodocoids both have prespinal and postspinal laminae in the posterior dorsal vertebrae and dorsalized proximal caudal vertebrae ( with laminae ) , but only diplodocoids have posterior dorsal vertebrae with craniocaudally compressed neural spines and only euhelopus and titanosaurids have six sacral vertebrae . diplodocoids and some titanosaurids ( saltasaurus and opisthocoelicaudia , not alamosaurus , malawisaurus or titanosaurus ) have craniocaudally compressed proximal caudal neural spines . only titanosaurids have been discovered with dermal ossifications . bonaparte states the four perpendicular laminae with postspinal laminae longest are more similar to rebbachisaurids than titanosaurids . this makes it apparent that agustinia is either a diplodocoid or advanced titanosaurid , with the evidence about equal for either . both groups were common in early cretaceous south america . a titanosaurid affinity is suggested by six sacral vertebrae and dermal ossifications , while diplodocoid affinity is suggested by craniocaudally compressed posterior dorsal neural spines and the orientation of the laminae . thus , i recommend placing agustinia as neosauropoda incertae sedis , as either a diplodocoid or advanced titanosaurid .", "a number of sauropods feature in robert\u2019s south american themed diorama . the picture above shows a close up of an agustinia ( pronounced ah - gus - tin - nee - ah ) , a bizarre , herbivorous dinosaur whose fossils were first discovered around twenty years ago . from the limited number of fossils found , palaeontologists remain uncertain as to the phylogeny of this particular dinosaur . it could be a member of the titanosaurids , or perhaps it was more closely related to diplodocus ( diplodocid dinosaurs ) . until more fossil material is found and studied , the family classification of this particular south american dinosaur remains uncertain .", "name : agustinia \u202d ( \u202cnamed after agustin martinelli , \u202d \u202cthe discoverer\u202d ) . phonetic : a -

wee - rup swamp drainage committee was formed by local landowners , to drain water from cardinia creek into western port bay . heavy rain in 1891 , coming from the gembrook ranges by the toomuc , bunyip and tarago rivers , inundated the swamp and its reclaimed western sector . successful drainage required a scheme for all of the swamp .", "the koo wee rup swamp lookout tower is located right by the main highway leading towards phillip island / wonthaggi / inverloch from melbourne . it basically consists of a fair sized parking area and then some historical information boards and a few other bits ' n ' pieces . the main attraction . . .", "the koo wee rup swamp was an area north of western port bay . its western limit was in the vicinity of tooradin and its easterly limit was bunyip and the lang lang river . the gippsland ( oakleigh to bunyip ) railway line marked the northern edge . estimates of its area vary , but it was about 400 sq km .", "if you ' re travelling the south gippsland highway , the col utber swamp tower reserve just south of koo wee rup is a great place for a rest or a picnic . this day time rest area has off road parking suitable for caravans and big rigs and is easily spotted by the high wooden lookout tower that dominates the picnic grounds .", "today we look at swamps as wetlands , worthy of preservation , but we need to look at the drainage of the swamp in the context of the times . koo - wee - rup was only one of many swamps drained around this time ; others include the carrum swamp and the moe swamp . to the people at the time the drainage works were an example of victorian engineering skills and turned what was perceived as useless land into productive land and removed a barrier to the development of other areas in gippsland .", "the land act of 1865 opened up land along the fringes of the swamp for selection . however , farming was not possible due to potential flooding and dense stands of vegetation . by 1870 the lands department decided that the swamp should be drained and opened up for agriculture . further land was sold at auction in 1875 . the largest landholders at the time were scottish and may have believed that the swamp soils were favourable for farming , based on their knowledge of peaty soils in their mother country . landholders formed the koo - wee - rup swamp drainage committee which would be responsible for draining the area .", "the following history of the koo - wee - rup region in terms of drainage and agricultural production has been largely summarised from the book ' from swampland to farmland ' by david roberts . it is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of this region .", "under this scheme , all workers had to be married , accept a 20 acre block and spend a fortnight working on the drains for wages and a fortnight improving their block and maintaining adjoining drains . the villages were koo - wee - rup , five mile , cora lynn , vervale , iona and yallock .", "drainage works on the swamp began in the 1850\u2019s on a small scale and in 1875 , landowners formed the koo - wee - rup swamp drainage committee . this committee employed over 100 men and created drains that would carry the water from the cardinia and toomuc creeks to western port bay . you can still see these drains when you travel on manks road , between lea road and rices road \u2013 the five bridges you cross span the cardinia and toomuc creek canals ( plus a few catch drains ) which were dug in the 1870\u2019s .", "potato growing has diversified into other vegetables as the fringe of metropolitan melbourne has come closer . by the 1930s koo wee rup and dalmore were major asparagus - growing areas , and by the early 2000s the former swamp produced 95 % of australia\u2019s asparagus . market gardens draw water from the drains and from the ground by bores , but some areas have suffered from excessive take - off , with a consequent risk of mineralisation and salting of the water .", "the original drainage works were completed in 1897 but later floods saw more drainage work undertaken , including widening of the main drain and additional side drains . none of these works protected the swamp against the big flood of december 1 , 1934 . the entire swamp was inundated ; water was over six feet deep in the town of koo - wee - rup and over a thousand people were left homeless . another bad flood hit the swamp in april 1935 and yet another one in october 1937 . a royal commission was also established in 1936 and its role was to investigate the operation of the state rivers and water supply commission regarding its administration of flood protection districts , amongst other things . the royal commission report was critical of the srwsc\u2019s operation in the koo - wee - rup flood protection district in a number of areas and it ordered that new plans for drainage improvements be established . the subsequent works saw the creation of the yallock outfall drain and the spillway at cora lynn , the aim of which was to take the pressure off the main drain in flood times and channel the flood waters directly to western port bay .", "it was obvious however that major works needed to be undertaken to sucessfully drain the swamp thus the chief engineer of the public works department , william thwaites ( 1853 - 1907 ) , surveyed the swamp in 1887 and his report recommended the construction of the bunyip main drain from where it entered the swamp in the north to western port bay and a number of smaller side drains .", "what you will not find at the col utber swamp tower reserve is a swamp . drainage works began in the area as far back as 1856 . the drain carrying water from the cardinia and toomuc creeks to westernport bay was created in 1875 . hundreds of men were employed for further work on drainage and by 1893 the swamp was declared drained and the area suitable for settlement .", "we will start this blog off with a brief overview of the drainage works on the swamp . small scale efforts to drain the 96 , 000 acre ( 40 , 000 hectare ) swamp began in the 1850s and in 1875 landowners including duncan macgregor , who owned", "the col utber swamp tower reserve is a daylight hour reserve on the south gippsland highway , koo wee rup . it is immediately west of the road bridge across the bunyip river and east of the rossiter road intersection with the highway . entry to the car park is on the west ( melbourne side ) of the lookout tower which is easily spotted from the road . the car park is suitable for caravans and big rigs , there is mobile ' phone coverage , and picnic facilities . there are no public toilets . pets are permitted .", "in march 1878 the gippsland railway which ran from melbourne to east gippsland was completed . residents of cranbourne and port albert made demands for a rail service in their districts which would necessitate a railway going through the koo - wee - rup swampland . plans were developed for a great southern railway between dandenong and port albert with profits from the sale of drained land to be used for it ' s construction .", "extensive flooding occurred in many areas of victoria in 1934 , and resulted in a flood in the former swamp area which was three and a half times larger than the record flood of 1924 . over one thousand people were made homeless and the koo - wee - rup hotel had almost 2 metres of water in it . a royal commission was established in 1936 and resulted in a drainage improvement scheme being implemented . this scheme involved alterations ( eg . levee construction , sediment removal ) and extensions to main drains . other floods occurred in 1937 .", "an information board has useful area maps , and a town map of koo wee rup . the history of the area is documented on one side . wander about and you will find a number of historic information and dedication plaques . a set of wheels from a german dredge , imported in the early 1900 ' s is proudly displayed . the late 1800 ' s release of deer into the area is commemorated . another plaque commemorates the 1991 opening of the south gippsland highway duplication .", "in the early 1900 ' s , hills to the north of the swamp area were cleared of trees in order to develop farms and to supply the many saw mills established due to a growing timber demand . increased runoff resulted into the tarago and bunyip catchments . erosion occurred in the steeper sections of the bunyip main drain and sediments were deposited in the lower sections of the drain . in 1911 severe flooding occurred . a drainage improvement plan was proposed by the state rivers and water supply commission to give the area complete protection from a flood this size . the lower koo -

settler farms were taken up during the 1920s .", "catani implemented the village settlement scheme . under this scheme , all workers had to be married , accept a 20 acre block and spend a fortnight working on the drains for wages and a fortnight improving their block and maintaining adjoining drains . the villages were at koo - wee - rup , five mile , cora lynn , vervale , iona and yallock . many of the settlers were unused to farming and hard physical labour , others were deterred by floods and ironically a drought that caused a bushfire . my great grandfather , james rouse , a widower , arrived on the swamp with his nine year old son joe , in 1903 . james , who had been a market gardener in england , was part of a second wave of settlers who were granted land as they had previous farming experience . by 1904 , over 2 , 000 people including 1 , 400 children lived on the swamp . by the 1920s , the area was producing one quarter of victorian potatoes and was also a major producer of dairy products .", "by 1940 the area planted to potatoes had fallen to approximately 570 hectares , due mainly to low prices in the 1930 ' s . smaller areas were planted to maize , onions , carrots , peas and asparagus ( goudie 1942 ) . vegetable demand increased during the second world war and carrots , peas and cabbages were processed in the dalmore area . the koo - wee - rup district became the prime supplier of vegetables and milk to melbourne . only minor flooding occurred after this period as drainage works continued . the whole reclaimed swampland came under the control of one authority ( state rivers and water supply commission ) in 1962 .", "it soon became apparent that drainage works needed to be carried out on a large scale if the swamp was to be drained and landowners protected from floods . the chief engineer of the public works department , william thwaites , surveyed the swamp in 1888 and his report recommended the construction of the bunyip main drain from where it entered the swamp in the north to western port bay and a number of smaller side drains as well . a tender was advertised in 1889 . even with strikes , floods and bad weather , by march 1893 the contractors had constructed the 16 miles of the drain from the bay to the south of bunyip and the public works department considered the swamp was now dry enough for settlement . in spite of this , the public works department was unhappy with the rate of progress and took over its completion in 1893 and appointed the engineer , carlo catani to oversee the work .", "work commenced on the bunyip main drain in 1889 in order to channel water from the bunyip river as it entered the swamp . this main drain would be fed by smaller drains . by 1892 the main drain had been cut 14 km inland from reeces inlet and at this time some 500 men were working on the project and excavating drains using picks , shovels and wheelbarrows . by 1893 the main drain had met the bunyip drain . these two drains together with four smaller drains formed the foundation of the swamp drainage system . a village settlement was started on the partly reclaimed swamp , whereby settlers were responsible for the maintenance of drains adjoining their blocks . the main drain overflowed in 1893 and much of the land was flooded . in response , the main drain was widened and deepened .", "irrigation due to urban expansion in the 1950 ' s and 60 ' s , market gardeners were forced away from the city region . the koo - wee - rup region became an area of market garden expansion and potatoes replaced dairying as the dominant land use . a system of irrigation was developed to provide for this expansion . in the 1950 ' s , permits were issued to allow a number of landholders to pump water directly from the main drain . further permits were granted . the amount of water that could be pumped varied according to the size of the farm . groundwater comes from the western port groundwater basin which is fed by water entering via tertiary period gravels and basalts along the eastern and western margins . also , recharge occurs via quaternary sediments in the north - east ( eg . bunyip and tarago river basins ) .", "water becomes stored in a groundwater aquifer underneath the impermeable clay and peat layers . the first bore was sunk in 1922 near cora lyn to tap underground water . other bores were sunk and used for stock and domestic requirements . bore sinking went unchecked in the 50 ' s and 60 ' s and a decline in water levels of up to 15 metres was recorded in 1961 - 62 . during the 1967 - 68 drought the water level in the koo - wee - rup aquifer fell to below pumping levels . the groundwater act was passed in 1969 and control of groundwater extraction was given to the state rivers and water supply commission . parts of the westernport groundwater basin were declared a groundwater conservation area in 1971 . controls were placed on the maximum rate and volume of groundwater that could be extracted . zones were established to manage groundwater use and in some areas no further bores were permitted .", "two creameries were established in 1896 and by 1897 drainage works were completed . in 1898 bushfires spread to the swamp area and underlying peat soil caught fire and burnt beneath the surface for months . the results of drainage and several dry years resulted in the soil shrinking and compacting and the level of the land surface fell .", "many of the settlers were unused to farming and hard physical labour , others were deterred by floods and ironically a drought that caused a bushfire , however many stayed and communities developed . by 1904 , over 2 , 000 people including 1 , 400 children lived on the swamp . by the 1920s , the area was producing one quarter of victorian potatoes .", "a tender was advertised in 1889 . in spite of strikes , floods and bad weather by march , 1893 , the private contractors had constructed the 16 miles of the drain from the bay to the south of bunyip and the public works department considered the swamp was now dry enough for settlement . at one time over 500 men were employed and all the work was done by hand , using axes .", "there was a second wave of settlers in the early 1900s where those selected had previous farm experience , such as my great grandfather , james rouse who had been a market gardener in england . james , a widower , arrived in 1903 with his eleven year old son , joe . he had selected 56 acres on murray road at cora lynn and his arrival started the rouse family ' s 110 year connection to the swamp .", "in spite of what seemed to be good progress - the public works department had been unhappy with the rate of progress and took over its completion in 1893 and appointed the engineer , carlo catani ( 1852 - 1918 ) . the 1890s was a time of economic depression in australia and various government schemes were implemented to provide employment and to stop the drift of the unemployed to the city . one of these schemes was the village settlement scheme . the aim was for the settlers to find employment outside the city and to boost their income from the sale of produce from their farms . it was in this context that catani implemented the village settlement scheme on the swamp .", "a major flood ( double the size of 1911 ) occurred in 1923 , which resulted in significant crop damage . an even larger flood occurred in 1924 that covered the former swampland in water 1 . 5 metres deep . in 1925 a royal commission investigated the entire soldier settlement scheme and assistance was given . drier periods existed after 1924 and the land proved to be very fertile . italian migrants bought many of the properties abandoned after the floods . they practised labour intensive farming methods and district production rose . it was estimated by the department of agriculture that in 1926 the former swamp area produced approximately 25 % of victorian potatoes . however , the great depression in the late 1920s resulted in reduced prices and financial ruin for some farmers . drainage digging was provided by the government as a form of relief work for the unemployed .", "in february 1876 works commenced on excavation of a main channel ( 8 km long and 1 . 2 m deep ) which tapped the cardinia creek and channelled water into westernport bay at moody ' s inlet . other smaller drains ( eg . toomuc ) were dug . one of the landholders ( mcgregor ) also built an embankment to hold back water on his property called ' dalmore ' . landholders carried out drainage works with shovels and wheelbarrows . vegetation was knocked down and burnt and the land was ploughed . some farmers flooded each other ' s land with their own drainage works and major floods still occurred ( eg . 1891 ) .", "a major flood in 1900 resulted in damage to crops ( eg . potatoes , onions , oats ) and dairy cows drowned . further widening of the main drain took place and more subsidiary drains were dug . a change from block allocation to land selection resulted in farmers from other regions ( eg . ballarat , drouin ) moving in to the area and bringing cropping skills . in the first decade of the 1900 ' s this area became the ' potato capital ' of victoria .", "increased demands for vegetables for canning was generated during world war 1 ( 1914 - 1918 ) and vegetable growing was encouraged . labour shortages at this time were offset by the introduction of a steam - driven bucket dredge , which was used on the wider sections of the larger drains ( eg . main , yallock , cardinia ) . it had a capacity of 60 cubic metres per day ( versus 8 . 5 for a ' good man ' ) .", "at the end of world war 1 , the government purchased large properties in a number of regions of victoria and divided them into smaller holdings , which were allocated to returned soldiers . within this area some of the larger properties ( such as ' dalmore ' ) were subdivided under this scheme . some minor flooding occurred in 1920 and 1921 . by 1923 almost 6500 hectares of potatoes were planted ( goudie 1942 ) .", "a thriving sand industry also developed in the area . sand was excavated from the main drains and transported to melbourne by railway where it was in demand as building material . the rate of erosion upstream decreased ( naturally and as a result of control measures ) and the supply of sand was depleted within a few years .", "the tarago reservoir was constructed in 1969 ( to supply water to the mornington peninsula ) which enabled more flood control downstream .", "example of subsurface drainage in dalmore clay soil . these drains are generally located just below the peat layer and are partially backfilled with gravel", "in recent years the groundwater levels have recovered . this has been largely due to groundwater extraction controls and the construction of dams to store water pumped from drains during periods of high water flow .", "annett and imhof ( 1991 ) assessed changes in landuse for the former shire of cranbourne from 1979 to 1989 . these changes were estimated from aerial photo interpretation . urban land use increased by an estimated 2200 hectares and in 1989 covered some 8 % of the study area . much of this urban expansion has occurred around cranbourne , hampton park , langwarrin and carrum downs . associated with this urban increase has been an increase in sand quarrying . the area excavated for sand had increased an estimated 390 hectares ( 83 % ) over the same period . sand mining in the cranbourne region supplies about 15 % of melbourne ' s sand requirements ( cochrane", "1991 ) . a large area of quaternary sand deposits are preserved in the cranbourne royal botanic gardens extension .", "market gardening on sandy soils had also increased significantly ( approximately 40 % ) over this period . this expansion has occurred primarily as consolidation of existing farms around cranbourne , fiveways and devon meadows . smaller , new operations have developed around pearcedale and langwarrin . the increase in market gardening has no doubt been a result of migration of these activities from other areas closer to melbourne ( eg . dingley , oakleigh ) as a result of urban expansion pressures . continued urban expansion around cranbourne , pearcedale and langwarrin may impact greatly on these operations . in the south - eastern growth corridor it is expected that the metropolitan area will expand to cranbourne in the south . cranbourne is anticipated to house about 80 000 people (", "24 / 11 / 90 ) . apart from using land suitable for market gardening ( eg . cranbourne sands ) , urbanisation will invariably result in an increase in land prices in surrounding areas . other problems faced by farmers on the urban fringes include the need for greater security and community concern over some farming practices ( eg . spraying near urban areas ) .", "annett , s and imhof , m . p .

( 2008b ) results suggested by it was related to the wagtails and pipits , and possibly sister to the wagtails . alstr\u00f6m et al .

( 2011 ) . kirwan and gregory ( 2005 ) established the monotypic genus eremopsaltria for the mongolian finch , separating it from bucanetes . however , they acted under the misapprehension that the mongolian finch is more likely closer to the common rosefinch than to the trumpeter finch . arnaiz - villena et al . ( 2008 ) found a rather different result , with the two bucanetes as sister taxa , and the rosefinch placed rather distantly from them . zuccon et al . ( 2012 ) confirm this .", "the combination of a large number of genes and attention to the problem of discerning the true species tree in spite of incongruent gene trees has led me to use the overall structure from lerner et al . ( 2011 ) . they use a large superset of the genes used by zuccon et al . , but only sample half as many taxa . the tif tree of genera is 100 % consistent with lerner et al . , and except for the placement of pyrrhulini , is also consistent with zuccon et al . it ' s nice to see so much consensus .", "this species has a very large range , and hence does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the range size criterion ( extent of occurrence < 20 , 000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size , habitat extent / quality , or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation ) . the population trend appears to be stable , and hence the species does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population trend criterion ( > 30 % decline over ten years or three generations ) . the population size has not been quantified , but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population size criterion ( < 10 , 000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be > 10 % in ten years or three generations , or with a specified population structure ) . for these reasons the species is evaluated as least concern .", "it ' s also not really clear how many red crossbills there are . i continue to follow the aou and bou taxonomy for the crossbills , but benkman et al . ( 2009 ) make a case for considering the \u201ctype 9\u201d crossbills of idaho to be a separate species , south hills crossbill , loxia sinesciuris . see also parchman et al . ( 2006 ) . however , it is doubtful there ' s any real genetic differentiation ( piertney et al . , 2001 ) . i also wonder whether it would be better to lump the parrot and scottish crossbills into red crossbill .", "the fringillidae start with a basal palearctic group , fringillinae . fringillinae is comprised of three species , one of which has spread across the northern palearctic . the remaining fringillidae fall into two sister clades , euphoniinae and carduelinae . the common ancestor of the euphoniinae / carduelinae clade was likely an old world species . something must connect it with the neotropical euphoniinae , but that something is missing without a trace . being geographically contiguous and more similar in appearance , the position of the carduelinae is easy to understand . euphoniinae is a mystery that unscores the importance of extinction in creating the bird distribution we currently see .", "i have kept the genus akialoa merged with hemignathus as akialoa appears to be paraphyletic ( see the trees in james , 2004 ) . however , portions of hemignathus have been split off as chlorodrepanis and viridonia . this has allowed restoration of the name hemignathus wilsoni for the akiapolaau ( hemignathus munroi ) . when chlorodrepanis virens is subsumed in hemignathus , the name wilsoni belongs to a subspecies of virens . the situation with the kauai amakihi , chlorodrepanis stejnegeri is similar . in hemignathus , the name stejnegeri belongs to a subspecies of the greater akialoa , hemignathus ellisianus stejnegeri , and the kauai amakihi uses the substitute name h . kauaiensis .", "price et al .

( 2006 ) and raty .", "this brings us to the carduelini . it has become apparent that the north american carpodacus finches are not that closely related to the true carpodacus finches . previously , the tif list used the genus burrica , also used as a subgenus by aou ( 2nd - 5th aou checklists ) . however , the oldest available name seems to be haemorhous ( swainson 1837 , type purpurea \u2014compare burrica ridgway , 1887 , type mexicana ) and i have now adopted that . haemorhous appears to be sister to the rest of the carduelini , and rather distantly related . perhaps it would even make sense to treat it as a separate tribe ( as done previously in the tif list ) .", "the nine - primaried oscines are called that because they appear to have nine primary feathers . actually , they have ten primaries , but the tenth primary is reduced and usually hidden under the ninth primary covert ( hall , 2004 ) . this sometimes occurs in birds outside the nine - primaried oscine group , but is most characteristic of this group .", "the split of the blue chaffinch , fringilla teydea , from common chaffinch , fringilla coelebs , was based on on su\u00e1rez et al . ( 2009 ) . the further split of gran canaria blue chaffinch , fringilla polatzeki , from blue chaffinch , fringilla teydea , is based on su\u00e1rez et al .

( 2011 ) make clear that the hawaiian creeper is sister to the other loxops . moreover , they shared a common ancestor about 2 million years ago and do not seem so different as to justify introducing an extra genus into a tribe that already has too many genera .", "i moved sillem ' s mountain - finch ( rediscovered in june 2012 ) from leucosticte ( pyrrhulini ) to carpodacus based on a photo of what is believed to be the female . when roselaar ( 1992 ) named sillem ' s rosefinch , he put it in leucosticte . at the time , the female plumage was unknown . the other leucosticte have female plumages that are only slightly different from the male , usually just duller . as roselaar pointed out , if it has a distinctive female plumage , it would more likely related to kozlowia ( now part of carpodacus ) than to leucosticte . more recently , muzika ( 2014 ) has made the same point . yann muzika ' s photo of the probable female sillem ' s shows a bird that is quite different from the adult male . see kazmierczak and muzika ( 2012 ) for an account of this rediscovery and muzika ( 2014 ) for further observations .", "the arrangement of the rosefinches is based on tietze et al . ( 2013 ) . their analysis has much in common with zuccon et al . ( 2012 ) , but is more comprehensive . now that we had a decent understanding of how the rosefinches relate , it makes sense to put the whole group in the genus carpodacus . there is a basal clade consisting of the common rosefinch ( previously moved to erythrina ) and the scarlet finch ( aka haematospiza ) .", "as mentioned above , how the tribes with the carduelinae relate has been somewhat contentious . there is considerable agreement that the holarctic coccothraustini are basal . the results of nguembock et al . ( 2009a ) suggested that carpodacus and pyrrhula were fairly closely related to each other , as did t\u00f6pfer et al . ( 2011 ) . neither had much to say about their relation to the hawaiian honeycreepers ( drepanidini ) . zuccon et al . ( 2012 ) were unable to clearly resolve the position of the honeycreepers ( see fig . 2 ) , but lerner et al . ( 2011 ) place them sister to the rosefinches ( carpodacini ) . the two together are then sister to the bullfinches and many arid - zone finches ( pyrrhulini ) . lerner et al . place the whole lot of them are sister to carduelini , which includes the american red finches ( previously separated as a tribe ) . as mentioned before , zuccon et al . disagree , placing pyrrhulini sister to carduelini .", "it ' s not entirely clear whether subgenus pseudochloroptila belongs in subgenus ochrospiza , so they are kept separate . both the yemen serin , crithagra menachensis , and ankober serin , crithagra ankoberensis , remain somewhat mysterious . these have be considered conspecific by some , or in separate genera by others . i have little confidence in their placement here ( hence the blue color on the tree ) , but it seems at least as reasonable as any other . this clade is expected to get a revision when more information becomes available .", "the arrangement of the finches is based on several sources . i originally relied on groth ( 1998 ) , klicka et al . 2007 , and arnaiz - villena et al . ( 1998 , 1999 , 2001 , 2007a , b , 2008 ) . their studies have included a substantial number of finch species . however , some monotypic genera had been left out ( e . g . , callacanthis , chaunoproctus , kozlowia , neospiza ) . these have all been included in the analysis by zuccon et al . ( 2012 ) .", "the redpolls themselves are an interesting case . it ' s not clear how many redpoll species there are . there is evidence that at least two are good biological species ( e . g . , knox , 1988 ) . in fact , knox et al .

( 2008 ) found little genetic difference between any of the redpolls ! there may be only one redpoll species . indeed , mason and taylor ' s detailed study using snp ' s ( 2015 ) found little genetic differentiation among the redpolls . at this point the balance of the evidence is that there is only one species involved . as a result , i ' ve lumped them all as a single species , holarctic redpoll , acanthis flammea . i thought about referring to them as just \u201credpolls\u201d , but added the adjective holarctic to emphasize that all races have been grouped together .", "arnaiz - villena et al .

time or in response to some physical forcing under certain circumstances .", "among these predators , baleen whales are unique , since they do not feed on individuals but on bulk amounts of krill , targeting aggregations that they engulf in mouthfuls . the whales take advantage of krill swarming behaviour which is otherwise a beneficial anti - predation strategy (", ") . nevertheless , aggregation may not be completely ineffective against whale predation , since it at least minimises the spatial extent of the krill distribution and makes it harder for roaming predators to detect them . however , once a predator has detected the edge of an aggregation , the probability of it being of considerable biomass is high , since aggregations often extend over kilometre scales (", "how do changes in the ocean environment affect the productivity of marine fish ? apart from the obvious effects of temperature on metabolic rates , it is most likely that changes in the ocean environment manifest themselves through the food web . according to the hypothesis of bottom - up control , productivity at higher trophic levels is limited by primary production . just as a rising tide floats all boats , one would expect an increase in primary production to benefit all the species that rely on this production . we might expect to find the best evidence for bottom - up control in ecosystems with seasonal production and relatively simple food chains , such as boreal and upwelling ecosystems . in the north sea there have been parallel changes in abundance of phytoplankton , zooplankton , herring , and seabirds , which can be interpreted as bottom - up control of the pelagic food chain . during the gadoid outburst in the north sea , recruitment of five demersal species \u2013 cod , haddock , whiting , saithe , and norway pout \u2013 increased by a factor of 4 or 5 between the early and late 1960s . the gadoid outburst has been interpreted as bottom - up control of recruitment by zooplankton abundance and availability . though the gadoid outburst ended in the 1980s , debate continues on the cause of this phenomenon .", "given that primary production limits production at higher trophic levels , species replacements may be caused by competition for limiting resources . according to accepted ecological methods , for species to compete , they must use the same resource , which must be in limiting supply . removal of one species should result in increased use of the resource by the other species . because of the difficulty of manipulating marine fish populations it has been very difficult to demonstrate competition , except for some sedentary species such as reef fishes . for many fish species that are mobile and differ in their feeding preferences , opportunities for interference competition are few . however , the species may still compete if one species eats food that the other species would have eaten . the limited energy in a food web may be channeled to one species or another , and this partitioning process can be considered exploitative competition .", "for example , sardines and anchovies have a broad diet overlap and may potentially compete . the japanese sardine fluctuations (", ") have been explained with a cyclic advantage hypothesis . a mathematical model of this hypothesis , which incorporates competition between the sardines and the other species groups , is able to reproduce the sequential replacement of the species groups . the replacement of the gadoids on georges bank by elasmobranches can also be interpreted as competition between the species groups . the abundance of the two species groups is inversely related in phase space (", ") , and reciprocal negative interaction terms were estimated between these groups in a multispecies model . as there is little predation between the gadoids and elasmobranches , the negative interaction terms support the competition hypothesis . an alternative hypothesis is that the different species groups simply respond differently to varying oceanographic conditions . however , this simplistic explanation begs the question of what changes in the environment caused the dramatic fluctuations and whether these changes occurred in the food web .", "the bottom - up hypothesis implies that prey density limits the feeding rate , growth and production of predators . the best evidence of this limitation is shifts in the mean size at age of predator species in response to changing prey abundance . for example , the growth rate of icelandic cod was significantly related to the biomass of capelin , one of its primary prey species (", ") . faster - growing cod mature at a younger age and larger females produce more eggs ; hence faster growth rates should translate to higher per capita fecundity . however , care must be taken when interpreting size - at - age data because growth rates are influenced by factors in addition to food availability , such as temperature .", "one of the most widely expressed concerns about the intensive and selective fishing activities of humans is that they will lead to imbalances in ecosystem function which have ramifications for non - target species . thus fishers who capture small \u201cforage fishes\u201d such as sardines or pilchards", "( nilsson ) will compete with other predators in the marine ecosystem . industrial fisheries in the north sea , for example , accounted for over half the total catch by the late 1980s (", ") . there is increasing pressure to manage marine ecosystems with a view to ensuring the well - being of birds and marine mammals rather than maximizing fish production for humans . moreover , some fishery biologists have also expressed concern about the", "intensive fishing of forage fishes since these may provide food for more valuable fished species .", ") , but these reductions may lead to responses in non - target species through changes in competitive interactions and predator\u2013prey relationships . the indirect effects of fishing on trophic interactions in marine ecosystems have become a major concern of the conservation movement (", ") and a good scientific basis for management decisions is essential . in addition , it is in this field that improved links between fish population biology and ecology would have particular benefits . the current debates amongst fisheries ecologists invoke comparison with debates about the relative roles of \u201ctop down\u201d ( predator ) or \u201cbottom up\u201d ( environmental and prey ) control in ecosystems and the relative significance of \u201cdonor controlled\u201d dynamics ( in which victim populations influence enemy dynamics but enemies have no significant effect on victim populations ) in food webs .", ") but empirical evidence suggests it is wrong to assume that most predator\u2013prey relationships are tightly coupled and that the removal or proliferation of one species which eats another will result in detectable changes in ecological processes . in particular , simplistic models of predator\u2013prey interactions often take no account of prey switching , ontogenetic shifts in diet , cannibalism or the diversity of species in marine ecosystems and thus they often fail to provide valid predictions of changes in abundance . in", "we review the empirical evidence for and against the proliferation of prey species following the removal of their predators . this is of particular significance because it has been suggested that the deliberate removal of predatory fishes ( or other top predators ) may allow fishers to harvest more of their prey (", "jones , 1982 ; grigg et al . , 1984 ; munro and williams , 1985", "birds and mammals may prey on marine fishes and humans compete with them as top predators . in", "we consider whether the removal or proliferation of prey has significant impacts on predator populations , discussing the relative roles of fisheries and environmental change in determining the availability of prey and how these processes affect the abundance and life histories of predators .", ") and yet there have been marked changes in the species that dominate the biomass and yield from many of the most productive marine fisheries . there has been much debate as to whether these changes are natural fluctuations in marine", "we consider the significance of species replacements and whether these have been stimulated by fisheries which remove biomass and therefore reduce interactions between species which formerly competed with , or ate , one - another . in", "compositional analyses have been used both for characterisation and for authentication purposes . the lipid content and to a greater extent the fatty acid composition of tissue lipids of animals are closely related to diet , making these suitable markers for identifying wild or cultured production methods . chromatographic techniques are the methods of choice for the analysis of fatty acid mixtures , the old bligh and dyer method (", ") being the most frequently used to isolate and purify lipids from biological materials . it is based on a liquid - liquid extraction , a mild treatment so as to minimise oxidative decomposition of fish lipids due to their highly unsaturated structure .", "most of the gc techniques developed to study fish lipids require a derivatisation step prior to analysis . transesterification with methanol is the most commonly used ; the fatty acids are then studied as fatty acid methyl esters or fames . most studies have focused on the liver oil or the fish flesh ; however ,", "other parts of the fish have also been investigated . for example , for atlantic salmon , total lipid content and composition have been characterised for different anatomical fractions : skin , red and white muscle , belly flap , dorsal fat depot , backbone , head , visceral tissue , liver (", "the long chain n - 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ( pufa ) are the most characteristic components of fish lipids , the main polyenoic acids being eicosapentaenoic acid ( epa or 20 : 5n - 3 ) and docosahexenoic acid ( dha or 22 : 6n - 3 ) . levels of linoleic ( 18 : 2n - 6 ) and linolenic ( 18 : 3n - 3 ) acids , more commonly found in vegetable oils , are generally low in marine lipids . feed formulations used in aquaculture are made up of fishmeal and fish oil , often derived from species such as capelin , menhaden ( brevoortia spp . ) , sand eel , sprat , norway pout , blue whiting , horse mackerel , atlantic herring ( clupea spp . ) , anchovy ( engraulis spp . ) , and pilchard . since fatty acid profiles can vary from species to species , these differences can be found in the farmed fish fed on specific fishmeal . with declining fish stocks and the corresponding growth in the use of fishmeal and fish oil for aquaculture , there is a move towards incorporating plant - derived products such as soybean meal or vegetable oils in the fish feed . the variations in fatty acid profiles due to these changes also offer a useful means of differentiating between wild and farmed fish .", "various studies have confirmed these differences in fatty acid composition in wild and cultured fish .", "reported dissimilarities in fatty acid profiles of the flesh lipids of cultured and wild sea bass , with oleic acid ( 18 : 1n - 9 ) and linoleic acid ( 18 : 2n - 6 ) being significantly higher in the farmed fish . both these fatty acids can be linked to the use of plant - derived oils in the feed . on the other hand , cultured sea bass contained lower amounts of epa and dha , with a higher ratio of n - 3 to n - 6 in the wild fish .", "on the characterisation of the fatty acid compositions of cultured and wild sturgeon , it was found that wild sturgeon have lower levels of dha or epa . the higher amounts of long chain n - 3 fatty acids in the cultured fish were attributed to the use of herring or menhaden in the fishmeal .", "potential fraudulent practices do not always entail substituting cheaper farmed fish for its more valuable wild counterpart . in areas where fishing rights are restricted , to protect certain fish populations for instance , there is the potential for endemic fish species to be illegally sold as cultured fish .", "used fatty acid composition and chemometric data treatment to discriminate between wild and farmed largemouth bass , black and white crappies , all freshwater fish that are popular with anglers . this study focused on four main fatty acids : linoleic ( 18 : 2n - 6 ) , linolenic ( 18 : 3n - 3 ) , arachidonic ( 20 : 4n - 6 ) and docosahexaenoic ( 22 : 6n - 3 ) . the statistical models built up using different data treatments all gave good classification rates were obtained for the wild and cultured species . this work was unusual in that it examined juvenile , age - 0 , rather than adult fish .", "although it has been clearly demonstrated that fatty acid composition is closely linked to the fish feed , there are other factors that may affect the overall profile , such as age , fatty acid metabolism and so on . add to this the possible changes in the feed composition to farmed fish to reflect available supplies , and the fact that the diet of wild fish can vary with season , migration patterns and other external factors , it is clear that most discriminant models based on fatty acid profiles may be subject to a number of uncontrolled variables . to provide a more robust solution it is probably best to envisage other complementary methods .", "m in length landed 248 , 036 tonnes of seafood worth \u00a3159 . 1 million in 2010 (", ") . bottom trawlers , however , dominate the uk fleet in terms of vessel numbers and days spent at sea , and the target roundfish and flatfish species are caught as part of a mixed fishery . the food web of the north sea is complex , and there is a trade - off in the yields of different species . for example , low fishing mortality on cod is predicted to lead to an increase in its spawning stock biomass ( ssb ) but a decrease in the ssb and yield for whiting and haddock through their increased direct predation by cod . effects may cascade , with the potential to also increase the ssb and yield for herring , sandeel , norway pout and sprat due to their reduced predation by whiting and haddock (", "present the ices data for the top 25 finfish species caught in the north sea and the top 19 recorded invertebrate species . the data are a fascinating window on the social , ecological and economic history of the north sea . some major trends evident , such as the disappearance of herring and the gadoid outburst are examples of nature determining landings (", ") . others , such as the catches of blue whiting , mackerel and wolf fish show how technological advance or culinary fashions can encourage fishers to target new species . latterly declines in landings of some species are clearly , at least in part , a result of over - exploitation ( e . g . cod and whiting ) . other declines may be the result of climate change , managing down exploitation or mis - management (", ") . decreases in landings of bivalves such as mussels and oysters reflect a shift from fisheries to mariculture for these species ( david jarrad , shellfish association of great britain , pers . com . ) .", "jennings and lee , 2012 ; jennings et al . , 1999 ; rijnsdorp et al . , 1998 ; stefc , 2012", ") . these fishing footprints are also affected by the local seabed substrate type . mixed sediments are the predominant bottom type in the north sea . coarser sands are dominant in the shallower more tidally active south . mud is generally more prevalent in the deeper northern parts , with substantial areas of exposed bedrock found mainly around the coasts of scotland and norway .", "at the finer scale , there remain significant gaps in our empirical understanding about both the spatial and temporal effects of fishing gear\u2013habitat interactions . this uncertainty is manifest when attempts are made to value the economic benefits and costs of restricting fishing over large spatial scales (", ") , with assumptions made on the impact of different fishing gears reflecting pre - conceived biases . indeed , this knowledge deficit has become increasingly relevant to the debates over management measures for mpas , particularly the ongoing revision of fishing activities to be restricted in european marine sites ( emss ) ,", "and current debates on the management restrictions to be placed in mczs . importantly , regional scale modelling exercises reveal that there are trade -

bearing opisthoproctids occurred when cohen [ 19 ] removed the genus name monacoa , largely because only two sole - bearing opisthoproctids were known and therefore rendering generic status trivial . considering the substantial morphological differences between the two previously recognized species , in combination with the two additional species presented in the current study , and including unambiguous molecular support , the generic status of monacoa is resurrected and opisthoproctus is from here on only used in reference to o . soleatus .", "the protacanthopterygian mitogenomic ml - phylogenetic tree shows the family opisthoproctidae sister family to the argentinidae . short - bodied opisthoproctids are found monophyletic with sole - bearing opisthoproctids representing the sister clade to macropinna microstoma . the three species of monacoa are found relatively distinct from other ophistoproctids , including opisthoproctus soleatus , with interspecific edge lengths ranging between 4\u20136 % within monacoa . the juvenile specimen included shows almost 100 % dna sequence similarity to adults of m . griseus , with only 12 ( 0 . 07 % ) and 14 ( 0 . 08 % ) base pairs differences comparing the whole mitogenomes . the atlantic species m . grimaldii and the pacific species m . griseus are supported as sister taxa , both constituting a sister clade to the pacific m . niger . all nodes are supported by bootstrap values of 100 except a node denoting two specimens of m . griseus showing almost complete dna sequence identity ( fig 6 ) .", "the orientation of the anal fin base changes through development , being almost horizontally positioned in the juveniles and transforming into the oblique or almost vertical position observed in adult monacoa species . the anal fin is located on the outer posterior margin of the sole , with the transformation into adulthood resulting in a different orientation also noted by schmidt [ 47 ] when only one juvenile specimen was known . noteworthy , the anal fin is present in juveniles of the closely related o . soleatus , although becoming reduced , retrorse or disappears in larger specimens .", "in order to avoid confusion utilizing comparative material degraded by preservation without molecular tissue available , we have not included eastern pacific and indian ocean material for the purpose of this study . inclusion of additional preserved material would only confuse the species separation at this point ( fig 4 ) . we note that bekker [ 42 ] only listed o . soleatus from the indian ocean , monotypic and considered circumglobal at this point . considering the mesopelagic habitat of monacoa spp . , we expect m . griseus and m . niger to be present across the pacific ocean .", "fresh material is therefore needed in order to establish pigmentation and distribution patterns of monacoa spp . more satisfactorily . however , indications are that m . grimaldii is found in the atlantic ocean and m . griseus and m . niger are found in the pacific ocean . this is supported from pigmentation patterns listed for the type material of m . grimaldii by zugmayer ( table 3 ) that unambiguously show both specimens to have the four - spot pattern ( fig 5b ) . the two specimens of m . grimaldii have only 31 verterbrae as opposed to 34 or more in m . niger and m . griseus . however , the latter is based on few specimens ( tables 2 and 3 ) . chapman [ 17 ] noted that the differences observed between m . grimaldii and o . soleatus warrant generic status and we confirm this notion with two new species of monacoa and mitogenomic data ( figs 3 and 6 ) .", "the light and dark musculatures of m . grimaldii specimens , preserved in ethanol only , are apparently not taxonomic informative , as this feature is also found in formalin fixed and ethanol preserved specimens of m . griseus . however , the holotype of m . niger shows a very different body coloration ( scale pockets ) freshly caught compared to congeners and probably distinguishes this species on this feature ( fig 3 ) . one formalin fixed specimen is showing a very dark body color ( ams i . 25919 - 001 ) and one juvenile is also appearing much darker than the other preserved juvenile specimens ( ams i . 20942 - 001 ) . we have tentatively identified them as m . niger although the body coloration of the different species is also an issue that requires future verification from fresh material and subsequent fixation ( figs 3 and 4 ) . variation in body color was noted by bekker [ 42 ] although only as variable between m . grimaldii and o . soleatus .", "the family opisthoproctidae ( barreleyes ) constitutes one of the most peculiar looking and unknown deep - sea fish groups in terms of taxonomy and specialized adaptations . all the species in the family are united by the possession of tubular eyes , with one distinct lineage exhibiting also drastic shortening of the body . two new species of the mesopelagic opisthoproctid mirrorbelly genus monacoa are described based on pigmentation patterns of the \u201csole\u201d\u2014a unique vertebrate structure used in the reflection and control of bioluminescence in most short - bodied forms . different pigmentation patterns of the soles , previously noted as intraspecific variations based on preserved specimens , are here shown species - specific and likely used for communication in addition to counter - illumination of down - welling sunlight . the genus monacoa is resurrected from opisthoproctus based on extensive morphological synaphomorphies pertaining to the anal fin and snout . doubling the species diversity within sole - bearing opisthoproctids , including recognition of two genera , is unambiguously supported by mitogenomic dna sequence data . regular fixation with formalin and alcohol preservation is shown problematic concerning the retention of species - specific pigmentation patterns . examination or photos of fresh material before formalin fixation is shown paramount for correct species recognition of sole - bearing opisthoproctids\u2014a relatively unknown issue concerning species diversity in the deep -

response . however , the stimulation of the fish by alarm pheromone ( extract of the skin , 0 . 5 g / l ) caused no pronounced changes in the electrical activity . it is supposed that aggressive motivation caused in the broadhead catfish by the presence of another individual of the same species dominated over the defensive response initiated by the alarm pheromone and , thus , dominated in the development of the electrical response .", "a minimum 50 gallon aquarium is recommended for a full sized featherfin squeaker . this synodontis catfish enjoys a tank with lots of hiding places , particularly driftwood . they have fun chasing each other around all the tunnels and holes , while feeling secure under the driftwood . once they find their favorite spot , they will stay there much of their lives unless the tank is revamped or a competitor out competes them for the space . porous rocks , such as the tufa used for african cichlid tanks , are also welcomed by these catfish . substrate should be sand or some type of smooth gravel to reduce the chance of barbel damage . plants also provide cover , but they must be tough and resilient since these catfish often shove\u0080\u0099 away anything in their path .", "the river nile is considered one of the most important fishery resources in egypt ( authman et al . , 2009 ) . it contributes about 7 . 99 % ( 87335 tons ) of the annual total egyptian fish production ( gafrd , 2009 ) . according to bishai and khalil ( 1997 ) survey , 71 fish species have been recorded in the nile system from egypt , 22 species are common in the commercial catch while 49 are rare ( el -

kangaroos with 19 - 23 % hypogeal fungi , along with fruit and forbs . rabbits similarly ate forbs but browsed the foliage and stems of shrubs . there is a widespread belief that rabbits were a significant cause of the mainland extinction of boodies through competition for food and shelter . the herrison prong study has cast doubt on both assertions . boodies better utilised common resources and boodie and rabbit diets diverged . boodies maintained populations when rabbits boomed and then busted as they depleted pasture under unfavourable conditions . boodies typically forage in areas where the canopy cover is above the average for the habitat , and ground cover and height is relatively high . livestock , particularly sheep , remove such cover and so the introduction of pastoralism , not the rabbits , cats and foxes that followed , is the prime cause of boodie extinction .", "researchers have proposed many possible causes for the boodie ' s decline on mainland australia , which began once australia was colonized . nineteenth - century colonists killed boodies , considering them a destructive garden pest . as ranches spread over the grasslands , livestock grazing reduced vegetation cover , shrinking their habitat . also , introduced species such as foxes , cats , and rabbits took a severe toll on the boodie , especially on islands . rabbits competed with them for food and shelter , and the foxes and cats became their major predators . the theory that rabbits compete with boodies for food has been disputed in a study done in 2002 although further investigation is needed . finally , the indigenous australians maintained certain fire regimes , and when these ceased , the habitat probably changed . by the 1960s , all the boodies on the mainland were extinct .", "this bettong had one of the most extensive continental ranges of any of the australian marsupials , originally occurring in all mainland states except perhaps queensland over the region from about 14 degrees south in the northwest down to the extremity of the southeast coast ( 37 degrees 50 minutes south ) , and from the west coast almost across to the great dividing range in new south wales . it had disappeared from victoria and new south wales by the 1860 ' s . it remained common in parts of central and southwestern australia until the 1930 ' s . by 1966 it appeared to be virtually extinct over most of its former range , with remnant pockets possibly remaining in northwestern and central australia . it was common on bernier and dorre islands . by 1987 it occurred only on barrow , boodie , dorre and bernier islands off of western australia ; by 1992 had become extinct on boodie island .", "the barrow and boodie islands subspecies of the burrowing bettong is a compact marsupial with grey fur , and a ventral surface that tends to be lighter . legs , feet and tail are yellowish in colour . it has short , rounded ears , grows to 28 cm in length and has a fat tail which grows to 21 . 5 cm in length . in some animals , the tail has a distinctive white tip ( strahan 1998 ) .", "was once one of the most widespread mammals inhabiting the australian mainland . it could be found in all suitable habitats throughout mainland australia , yet by the early 1960\u2019s had become extinct on the mainland and could only be found on the australian islands of bernier and dorre in shark bay , and boodie island and barrow island near the pilbara coast . burrowing bettongs used to live on dirk hartog island , but have gone extinct from there as well .", "in late 2004 , calm ( now wa dec ) established a recovery team for marsupials of shark bay to coordinate conservation actions for the subspecies including the barrow and boodie islands subspecies ( richards 2007 ) . through this team , wa dec has prepared the western barred bandicoot perameles bougainville , burrowing bettong bettongia lesueur and banded hare -

kangaroo bettongia lesueur . today it is more commonly known as the burrowing bettong or boodie .", "between 1988 and 1990 csiro conducted surveys of bernier , dorre , barrow , and boodie islands to establish the size and stability of populations of endangered mammals . surveys in 1988 and 1989 revealed a population of some 5 , 000 bettongs distributed between three islands . barrow island ( 240 square kilometres ) contained the greatest number with some 3 , 500 animals . subsequent surveys have revealed that these populations fluctuate strongly in size , building up steadily over several years of average to above average rainfall and then crashing in drought .", "the boodie like most of the rat - kangaroos has a gestation period just shorter than the oestrous cycle and thus has a post - partum oestrus with mating taking place very soon after the current pouch young vacates the pouch permanently . they show embryonic diapause and breed continuously regardless of season but some bias towards the wetter winter months was noted on bernier and dorre islands . pouch life is around 4 months and thus they are able to produce more than one young per year but island populations do not reach the theoretical maximum of three young .", "and sea eagles ; on barrow island , monitor lizards appear to be a significant predator . before its extinction on the mainland , the boodie served a very important function in the australian grassland ecosystem . as it foraged , it mixed organic matter into the soil , spreading fungi and seeds . this mixing also increased water absorption into the soil and reduced the combustible material under trees , decreasing the likelihood of fire . these actions helped maintain the balance of trees , shrubs , and grasses . the loss of small , ground - foraging animals after european settlement contributed to widespread soil deterioration . also ,", "the boodie once lived in a range of dry subtropical and tropical habitats , from open eucalyptus and acacia woodlands to arid spinifex grasslands . in its current range on the islands , it seems to prefer open triodia ( spinifex ) and dune habitats , but will burrow anywhere except places with rocky substrate . the burrowing bettong eats a variety of foods , such as seeds , fruits , flowers , tubers , roots , succulent leaves , grasses , fungi , termites , and marine refuse . it will also raid vegetable gardens . current populations fluctuate , building up during the years with average or good rainfall and crashing during drought years . these marsupials are known to live at least three years in the wild .", "burrowing bettongs were once widespread across arid and semi - arid areas in the south , central and western parts of australia . their range contracted dramatically following european settlement and extant populations are now present only on a small number of islands off the coast of western australia . re -

7 months to sexually mature . females mated the day after giving birth , and the fertilised egg arrested development until the young was weaned . in captivity , females are able to bear three young per year .", "the rat - kangaroos have fared very poorly with the advent of agriculture and pastoralism compounded by the introduction of competitors ( european rabbits and hares ) and predators ( red foxes and domestic cats ) . the potoroids generally have much reduced ranges relative to the first settlement of australia by europeans and two of the 10 species are extinct . the most dramatic of the declines is the boodie ( burrowing bettong ) which was widespread across the rangelands of australia and ended up marooned on a few offshore islands in western australia . reintroductions are in progress and this species is on the first hops to making a comeback on the mainland . like the potoroids , the musky rat -

western parts of the country . while it is now presumed to be extinct on the australian mainland , it persists in insular populations on bernier and dorre islands in shark bay ( western australia ) and on barrow island off the pilbara coast ( western australia ) ( richards 2005 ; burbidge and short 2008 ) . there are reintroduced populations on faure island in shark bay and boodie island ( both western australia ) , as well as on the mainland in scotia wildlife sanctuary ( new south wales ) , arid recovery reserve at roxby downs ( south australia ) , and heirisson prong ( western australia ) ( all three mainland sites are fenced reserves within the historical range of the species ) .", "once present in all mainland states except queensland , the boodie survived as three remnant populations on small offshore islands . these islands include bernier and dorre islands in shark bay and barrow island off the northwest coast of western australia . the marsupial was listed on the 2006 iucn red list as vulnerable due to acute restriction of its area of occupancy to less than 100 km\u00b2 . in 2008 , however , due to successful conservation efforts both by government agencies and the private sector , boodies have been listed on the 2008 iucn red list as near threatened , as its range and population have increased , and are still increasing . newly established populations included herrison prong on mainland shark bay by the dec , as well as faure island , scotia sanctuary , and yookamurra sanctuary , which were established by the australian wildlife conservancy .", "modelo boodie cfs seguran\u00e7a maior prote\u00e7\u00e3o lateral cresce com a sua crian\u00e7a : cinto de seguran\u00e7a ajust\u00e1vel em 3 pontos fivela de seguran\u00e7a \u00e0 prova de crian\u00e7a 1 autocolante refletor traseiro fivela de seguran\u00e7a \u00e0 prova de crian\u00e7a . forma ergon\u00f3mica para usar com o capacete conforto cresce com a sua crian\u00e7a -

sustaining \" , and thus be included in the number of locations used in the assessment . this species is also close to qualifying as having \" extreme fluctuations \" in population , which would also qualify it for a threatened category .", "this species is found in arid and semi - arid areas of shrubland and woodland , on sandy or loose soils . currently it is found in areas with calcrete rock and sandy areas . it is nocturnal and omnivorous , and lives as loose colonies in a complex warren of underground burrows . the females breed throughout the year and usually give birth to a single young three times a year ( j . richards pers . comm . ) .", "this species is listed as a threatened species under australian law . bernier , dorre , and barrow islands are all protected areas , as are all the areas where the species has been reintroduced . studies are underway into the taxonomic identity of remaining populations . there is a need to actively manage and monitor populations . this species is listed on appendix i of cites . a recovery plan for the species has been developed for the 2005 - 2010 period ( richards 2005 ) . recommendations in this plan include : protect wild populations and their habitat so that the species does not fall below the level of natural fluctuations ; maintain captive populations ( currently there are captive breeding populations at yookamurra wildlife sanctuary , scotia wildlife sanctuary , and return to dryandra field breeding facility ) ; use of population viability analysis to compare the viability of wild , current and potential reintroduced populations , and ; enhance community participation and education . the recovery plan also recommends initiating three reintroductions to the mainland within a five year period ( 2005 - 2010 ) ( richards 2005 ) . there have been reintroduction attempts in the past . many of these failed do to the presence of introduced predators , and it is clear that success of reintroductions requires sites to be free from cats and foxes . there is a proposed reintroduction to dirk hartog island , which is not possible unless feral cats there have been eradicated ( a . burbidge pers . comm . ) .", "to make use of this information , please check the < terms of use > .", "we use cookies to enhance your experience on our website . this website uses cookies that provide targeted advertising and which track your use of this website . by clicking \u2018continue\u2019 or by continuing to use our website , you are agreeing to our use of cookies . you can change your cookie settings at any time .", "\u2018paisley had a gecko to release and we saw two bilbies and two burrowing bettongs . \u2019", "\u2018the company which values its boodies , bandicoots and other animals on its balance sheet , issued shares at a $ 2 . 50 when it listed . \u2019", "\u2018when we started , people didn ' t know what bilbies and boodies and bettons and numbats were , and now they do . \u2019", "stay up to date with our latest news and receive new words updates , blog posts , and more .", "in this article we explore how to impress employers with a spot -

( the latter including the cone snails profundiconus , californiconus , conasprella , conus and taranteconus ) in their accustomed usage at family rank . an alternative would have been to recognize only two families , conidae sensu taylor et al . ( 1993 ) and turridae ( including the turridae , terebridae , drilliidae and pseudomelatomidae ) , with the resulting inconvenience that conidae s . s . and terebridae , although monophyletic , would lose their traditional usage and the vast associated literature dealing with these names that largely ignores the taylor et al . ( 1993 ) and bouchet & rocroi ( 2005 ) classifications .", "fourteen clades of rank equivalent to conidae s . s . and terebridae are recognizable from the molecular phylogenetic tree ( puillandre et al . , 2011 ) . forty - three family\u2013group names within conoidea are nomenclaturally available ( appendix 2 ) , of which five are based on a genus with a fossiltype species ( andoniinae vera - pelaez , 2002 ; cryptoconinae cossmann , 1896 ; hemiconidae tucker & tenorio , 2009 ; johnwyattidae serna , 1979 ; siphopsinae le renard , 1995 ) . these five cannot be applied to a molecular clade and will not be used in our classification . names were applied to clades based on the position of their type genus in the tree . if more than one family\u2013group name was applicable , the valid name was determined by priority . if the type genus of a nominal family name was not sequenced , application of the name was determined by reference to the morphologically most similar genus used in the analysis .", "because the molecular taxon sampling is still too patchy for such levels , we have abstained from extending the classification below family level ( i . e . subfamilies , tribes ) , even when some molecular clades obviously match previously recognized \u2018subfamilies\u2019 ( e . g . californiconinae , oenopotinae , zemaciinae , zonulispirinae ) . they are all included in a family ( appendix 2 ) , without precluding their usefulness and potential taxonomic validity .", "each family ( except the conidae and terebridae , already extensively covered and illustrated in other recent works , e . g . r\u00f6ckel , korn & kohn , 1995 ;

dweller and could have been a filter feeder at times , in addition to the plant life of leaves from trees and shrubberies , along with buds and grasses . struthiomimus likely still could have grasped at branches with its forelimbs and webbed fingers . its long neck would have been useful both in the water and out , reaching the tops of trees and into the depths of the shallowest waters .", "since struthiomimus has no teeth , and teeth are the most abundant and easiest means to recognize the presence of a specific dinosaur type , we have only a few phalanges from the foot that we can definitely attribute to this taxon in our collection .", "struthiomimus was probably an omnivore -

suited to rapid running , much like an ostrich . the supposed speed of struthiomimus was , in fact , its main defense from predators ( although it may also have been able to lash out with its hind claws when cornered ) , such as the dromaeosaurids ( e . g . saurornitholestes and dromaeosaurus ) and tyrannosaurs ( e . g . daspletosaurus and gorgosaurus ) , which lived at the same time . it is estimated to have been able to run at speeds between 50 to 80 km / h ( 31 to 50 mph ) .", "a well - known example is struthiomimus . most were ostrich - sized and were adapted for fast running , with particularly long foot bones , or metatarsals . the largest was deinocheirus from asia , known only from one specimen consisting of complete arms and hands almost 3 metres ( 10 feet ) long\u2014nearly four times longer than those\u2026", "the tracks are all of three - toed animals ( that is , three toes to walk on \u2013 digitgrade stance ) . the narrow toes and their overall size indicate the bird - like prints of a type of bipedal dinosaur belonging to the theropod group \u2013 ornithomimids . these light , cursorial dinosaurs had compact bodies , long tails , long necks and very long legs . they were swift runners and palaeontologists believe that some of the larger species such as the four metre long struthiomimus ( struthiomimus sedens ) , that lived in north america during the late cretaceous ( campanian faunal stage ) , could have reached speeds in excess of sixty kilometres an hour .", "struthiomimus was of a medium size , bipedal and bird - like in appearance . its long rear limbs appear to be built for great speed and distance coverage , like that of today\u2019s ostrich . while struthiomimus stood about four feet at the hips , actual height to the head was more like fourteen feet . the head of struthiomimus was very small in proportion to the rest of its body , including the brain . the head was slender and seemed a simple extension from the much larger body and long neck . the jaws of this omnivore were edentulous . its tail must have been quite useful in balance and aerodynamics , since it consisted of significantly more vertebrae than either its neck or back . the tail of this ostrich like dinosaur was stiff , and most significant to its build and performance , with at least 35 tail vertebrae and only six to the hip area and thirteen in the back . it is surprising that the neck , although very long , had only ten vertebrae .", ") have suggested struthiomimus was probably a herbivore ( plant - eaters ) - its hands seem well - adapted to hooking branches and fern fronds . finally , there is also a possibility that it may have lived on the shoreline and been a filter feeder , straining water for food particles in a way similar to modern flamingo birds .", "this study provides the first description of an ornithomimid bonebed known from north america , and one of only three such sites worldwide . although the taxonomic identity of the specimens could not be determined beyond the clade containing ornithomimus and struthiomimus , it provides further evidence of gregarious behavior in ornithomimids , and highlights some of the outstanding problems within ornithomimid classification .", "the arms of struthiomimus were long and slender and sported the longest hands of any ornithomimid . the three fingers were all about the same length , with slightly curved and particularly long claws . the forearm to the fingers were immobile ( no wrist ) , with only slight mobility of the fingers themselves . its arms have been compared to those of a sloth .", "struthiomimus was about 14 feet ( 4 . 3 meters ) long , and about 4\u00bd ( 1 . 4 meters ) tall at the hips . it is believed to have weighed around 330 pounds ( 150 kilograms ) . it was probably a fast -

mimic dinosaur ( strouthion - ostrich , mimos - mimic ) was a medium - sized ( up to 15 feet long ) ostrich - like theropod found in the lance formation and in other upper cretaceous deposits in north america . this creature appears to have been a fast runner that may have relied upon its speed to escape from other carnivorous dinosaurs that might have wanted to make a meal out of this tasty morsel .", "the stratigraphic position of the specimens can also be of assistance in the taxonomic identification of the bonebed material ( figure 6 ) . known ornithomimid material from the section of the horseshoe canyon formation containing the bonebed ( tolman member / unit 4 , above the drumheller marine transgression ) almost exclusively represents ornithomimus edmontonicus ( six skeletons in various states of completeness ) , with the exception of one specimen of struthiomimus altus [ 1 ] , [ 13 ] , [ 21 ] . this further supports the placement of the bonebed specimens within the clade containing ornithomimus and struthiomimus [ 11 ] , [ 16 ] . although only one specimen of s . altus is currently known from this unit , it contains diagnostic forelimb material that makes misidentification unlikely [ 13 ] . in combination with the inconclusive phylogenetic and pca results , we conclude that an exact species determination for the dry island bonebed material cannot be confirmed at this time .", "this ornithomimid ( \" bird mimic \" ) dinosaur was distinguished from its more famous cousin by its slightly longer arms and stronger fingers , but because of the position of its thumbs it couldn ' t grasp food quite as easily . like other ornithomimids , struthiomimus likely pursued an opportunistic diet , feeding on plants , small animals , insects , fish or even carrion ( when a kill was left unattended by other , larger theropods ) . this dinosaur may have been capable of short sprints of 50 miles per hour , but had a less taxing \" cruising speed \" in the 30 to 40 mph range .", "name : struthiomimus \u202d ( \u202costrich mimic\u202d ) \u202c . phonetic : stru -

sensitive proteins called visual opsins . each is most sensitive to a particular wavelength of light . humans , for example , have three visual opsins sensitive to blue , green and red light . they absorb light at slightly different wavelengths , enabling us to see those three colors and others .", "the unique visual system allows the fish to avoid a problematic phenomenon \" snell ' s window , \" which occurs when you are underwater while looking up out of the water . due to the refraction of light at the water ' s surface , after a certain angle you no longer see out of the water , and instead see a reflection on the water ' s surface . thus , your field of vision is limited to about 96 degrees . \"", "this is supposed to mean that \u2018right -

30\u2030 in the wild so water chemistry isn\u2019t too much of a concern ; for ease of maintenance a specific gravity between 1 . 005 - 1 . 015 is normally recommended . apart from this the most important provision is shallow water with a depth of 15cm / 6\u2033 or so being more than adequate ; the fish will spend almost all their time at the water surface and actually bob back up to the surface in a cork - like fashion if submerged for too long .", "during low water the fish congregated in marginal zones of the main channel ( usually < 1 m away from the bank ) and the authors hypothesised that this allows them to maximise foraging time by always being close to the mouths of the temporary channels , as well as providing protection against potential predators and preventing them being swept away by strong currents in the central , deeper section . large areas of mud and sand banks are exposed during these periods and some individuals were observed to leap out of the water to lay in the sun , often for minutes at a time .", "the best conditions for foraging were found to be at spring tide during daylight hours when the water level is highest and the fish are able to take full advantage of the above water eye ( see \u2018notes\u2019 ) , whereas when high tide occurred during the night less individuals were found to migrate . there is an initial rapid rise in water levels as the tide comes in and young specimens were observed swimming at the peak of the first wave to enter the marginal creeks , with adults behind . this \u2018first flood rise\u2019 was the trigger for the \u201cvirtual disappearance of a . anableps from the main channel\u201d .", "the encyclopaedia britannica describes anableps as \u2018an extreme example of adaptation to life near the air - water interface\u2019 . 5 if this is the case , how did it develop its multi - functional eyes , beginning as an ordinary fish with normal , single - function eyes ? it is extremely difficult to see how something as complex as this could develop by gradual stages , and the more parts that have to develop , the greater the difficulty . this includes the complex brain setup needed to simultaneously decode the double images being received by the two retinas . how did all this evolve until it was fully functional ?", "archerfish ( toxotes chatareus ) experience a similar light environment to a . anableps and have had their vision studied using msp [ 4 ] . they were found to have double cones in the dorsal retina that were most sensitive to the most prevalent wavelengths of upwelling light . however , unlike a . anableps , double cones in the ventro - nasal retina in archerfish were shifted to even longer wavelengths , suggesting that the ventral exclusion of lws opsin expression seen in three surface - dwelling , cyprinodontiformes fish has not occurred . this implies that other features beyond light environment , such as phylogeny or the visual tasks required , may affect opsin expression .", "fieldwork by brenner and krumme ( 2007 ) in the furo do meio , a tidally - influenced tributary of the caet\u00e9 mangrove estuary located to the north of bragan\u00e7a city , 200 km south of the amazon delta , revealed that these daily migrations are entirely related to feeding ( see \u2018diet\u2019 ) . at low tide the permanent channel of the tributary measures just 30 m across , but during high water this increases to between 50 m in its upper reaches and 400 m near its mouth . smaller channels around its margins therefore become temporarily flooded and the fish move into these to forage , sometimes up to 1 km away from the main tributary .", "in situ hybridization was used to characterize the topography of cone photoreceptor subtypes . anableps anableps and j . onca exhibited uniform distributions of cones expressing sws1 , sws2b and rh2 - 2 ( figure 2 and figures in the electronic supplementary material ) . neither species exhibited detectable sws2a expression in the retina . species - specific differences were noted for the rh2 - 1 - expressing cones . in j . onca , rh2 - 1 had uniform expression across the retina in all sections , whereas adult a . anableps had rh2 - 1 in a large number of ventral cone cells and in a small patch of cones at the dorsal tip of the retina . this pattern was observed in all adults . in juveniles , rh2 -

2 ( 452\u2013472 nm , blue ) , rh2 - 1 ( 492\u2013539 nm , green ) and lws ( 543\u2013576 nm , yellow ) ( figure 2 a and discussed in supplementary materials ) . while these represent the value for individual opsin proteins , multiple proteins may be found co - expressed in a single cone , causing intermediate sensitivity values for the photoreceptor .", "early msp work showed no difference in the prevalence of different cone cells between retinal halves [ 15 ] . however , our in situ hybridization experiments , which are better suited to assess photoreceptor distributions because they sampled more photoreceptors by several orders of magnitude , did detect differences : the dorsal retina , used for aquatic vision , has cone photoreceptors that express sws1 , sws2b , rh2 - 2 and lws , while the ventral retina , used for aerial vision , expresses sws1 , sws2b , rh2 - 2 and rh2 - 1 ( figure 2 ) . from these observations , we predict that wavelength sensitivity differs in the dorsal and ventral regions of the retina .", "the reduction of rh2 - 1 expression and retention of lws expression in the dorsal retina suggest that a . anableps has enhanced sensitivity to long wavelength light ( 543\u2013576 nm ) in the aquatic field of view . this enhanced sensitivity could be advantageous in the brackish waters of the mangrove forests and river deltas that a . anableps inhabits , as these often contain dissolved organic matter that shifts light abundance to longer wavelengths [ 17 ] . light measurements taken in similar mangrove habitat showed that downwelling light is most prevalent at approximately 500 nm , while upwelling light peaks at approximately 580 nm [ 4 ] . we propose that , by the differential expression of rh2 -

forces affecting the habitats of bert\u2019s predaceous diving beetle , the required habitat is inherently sensitive due to its rare and fragile state . the oldman river watershed lies within the parkland natural ecozone which stretches across the bottom of alberta , saskatchewan and manitoba . it is the most heavily altered ecosystem within alberta and only 3 % of the natural environment is believed to remain within this parkland ecozone which runs along the bottom of alberta , saskatchewan and manitoba ( environment canada 1996 ) . schindler and donahue ( 2006 ) warn of the coming drought that alberta will face in the next few decades as a result of human pressures on the system , natural environmental fluctuations and climate change , but there remains some debate on how serious this is likely to be . they also report that summer flows in the rivers of alberta have declined in the last 100 years , with the watersheds in central and southern alberta demonstrating the most dramatic declines . fluctuating water levels could influence the availability of habitat sites for s . bertae .", "a small green , thin\u2013meshed dip net ( similar to the ones used in home fish aquariums ) was gently rubbed along the moss and algae or vegetation found along the springs / seeps or wetted areas in a sweeping motion with several passes to ensure the entire microhabitat was sampled . the contents of the net were then placed into the top of three circular metal sieves of decreasing mesh size ( 50 , 100 and 250 \u00b5m ) and left in the sun . this forces aquatic organisms to move out of the heat at the top of the sieves into the very bottom layer where they are then separated from the detritus , vegetation and debris . insects small enough to fit through the last sieve size ( including specimens of s . bertae ) were suctioned by mouth into an aspirator . the other layers of the sieve were searched visually for any invertebrates , which were removed by aspiration into a small vial . all insect and invertebrate specimens collected were immediately preserved in 95 % ethanol and shipped to the university of manitoba for expert identification by dr . r . e .

woven fibre composites . these properties are of relevance also for synthetic non - woven composite materials and our studies will help formulate bio - inspired design principles for new materials .", "silk materials have received much attention in recent years because of their attractive combinations of mechanical strength and toughness as well as the environmentally benign conditions under which the materials are processed from concentrated protein solutions to solid fibres [ 1 ] . however , silkworm cocoons , which are best known as the main commercial source of silk material ( primarily for textiles ) , are themselves remarkable natural composite materials . while the commercial silkworm bombyx mori has been cultivated by man for about five thousand years , a wide range of wild silkworms have evolved independently over the world over hundreds of thousands of years , and each has a slightly different combination of morphology and properties that have adapted to cope with diverse local environments .", "a cocoon is a natural silk composite with a non - woven structure made of continuous silk fibres conglutinated by sericin bonding matrix . as a biological structural material , it has a hierarchical structure that we assume has been optimized through evolutionary pressures over millions of years to provide the optimum protection for the silkworm pupae as they transform into moths , and are exposed to a wide range of threats such as physical attack from animals , birds or insects , or more subtle threats such as bacteria or simply harsh environmental conditions . the key point here is that they are all , in themselves , optimized for function and that we should be able to learn from this wide range of optimized structure\u2013property\u2013function relations in cocoons . figure 1 shows a hierarchical set of pictures of the b . mori cocoon structure , from the full cocoon to the individual fibre\u2013sericin combination . these cocoons have been cultivated for yield and ease of reeling of the silk fibres and for their whiteness in textiles , so their morphology is an open non - woven form that can be unwound relatively easily after soaking in mild degumming agents .", "the hierarchy of the morphology of a bombyx mori cocoon .

permanent shine , it is necessary to polish the rock by sanding and grinding it with various grits of sandpaper and abrasives , finally finishing it with a polishing compound in order to bring out the beautiful luster of the stone . then it is a petoskey stone .", "corals live in a symbiotic relationship with a variety of marine algae . although these corals had tentacles similar to those of sea anemones and were able to capture food such as plankton and even small fish , the algae provided much of what the corals needed for survival . food such as plankton was captured by tentacles and brought down to the center where the mouth and stomach was located . the algae used a process called photosynthesis to provide additional energy to the coral polyp . in turn , the hard exoskeleton of the coral and stinging tentacles provided protection for the algae . the coral polyp produced waste products that the algae needed for its survival . because sunlight is needed for the algae photosynthesis and sunlight only penetrates the ocean to a certain depth , the corals only grow in shallow waters of 30 to 150 feet .", "corals are marine organisms that are made up of many \u2014 sometimes thousands \u2014 of hard calcium carbonate exoskeletons called corallites . each corallite contains a polyp , or an individual multi - cellular animal . there are two major types of corals found in michigan : solitary corals growing by themselves , and colonial corals growing in a tight community of genetically identical polyps . the polyp is the actual living individual creature that inhabits each corallite . as the coral grows it extends the calcium carbonate exoskeleton and seals off part of the base . corals can reproduce asexually and sexually .", "certain corals also reproduce sexually , releasing both sperm and egg into the marine environment . the mixing of the two results in the production of larvae , which then float in the ocean currents . within two days to three weeks , the larvae attach themselves to rocks or other corals on the reef to begin their lives as reef builders .", "the name petoskey came from an old odawa indian legend . it is said that a french fur trader named antoine carre came to michigan and traveled extensively in the area now known as petoskey , where he met and married an odawa princess . in time he was adopted by the local odawa tribe and eventually was made their chief . it is further told that in the spring of 1787 , while traveling with his wife on his way from near present - day chicago , he camped near what is now kalamazoo . during the night , his wife gave birth to a son . it is legend that as the morning sun rose , the rays of the sun fell upon the infant\u2019s face , and his father pronounced his name to be petosegay and predicted that he would be an important person . the translation of the odawa \u201cpetosegay\u201d means sunbeam , or rising sun or rays of dawn .", "petosegay became a fur trader like his father and also became quite wealthy . he owned much land in the petoskey area , and a community was settled on the shores of little traverse bay . the present location of the city of petoskey stands as a tribute to petosegay . because these rounded and water tumbled fossils were found in great abundance on the shores of little traverse bay , they became known as petoskey stones .", "the petoskey stone was made the state stone of michigan by legislative action . house bill 2297 was signed by then - gov . george romney in 1965 , thus elevating this fossil to the prestigious

organism preserved in earth ' s bedrock . the fossilization process typically occurs when a plant or animal ' s remains sinks to the bottom of a body of water . sediments then cover the remains protecting it from scavengers and the elements . this slowed the decaying process of the harder body parts . over time the sediments become rock and water seeped through the rock dissolving the hard body parts . this would leave a hollow cavity that is then filled in by dissolved minerals in the same water that dissolved the hard body parts .", "fossilization is an rare occurrence as the majority of most living organisms are soft and these parts decay quickly . due to the combined effect of decomposition and simple mathematical chance , fossilization tends to favor organisms with hard body parts , those that were widespread , and those that existed for a long time before going extinct . on the other hand , it is very unusual to find fossils of small , soft bodied , geographically

30 years when i began working with them . i clearly recall seeing these same animals when visiting the zoo as a teenager , but their increased size did not fully register until i dug out some old food cards . upon arrival at the zoo , they were feeding upon goldfish\u2026they now downed whole chickens without effort , and were capable of taking much larger meals !", "very little is known about the natural mating behaviors of false gharials ; most details are from captive breeding programs , with a few acocunts from the wild . courtship behavior and nesting appear to take place during the rainy season in both cases . males approach females in the water , swimming around them . in some cases , this is accompanied by both animals hitting each other with their tails , in others copulation proceeds immediately . the male mounts the female , wrapping his tail around and under hers . copulation occurrs once a day for several days to a week , and is accompanied by a strong odor . one captive breeding program in malaysia had success housing a group of 3 males and 1 female . the female chose the largest male and appeared to stay near him during the courting period . when 2 females were kept in the same enclosure with the males , no mating occurred and it is theorized that females living in close proximity may suppress breeding in one another .", "false gharials are mound - nesting crocodilians that lay very large eggs ( records up to 9 . 5 cm long and 6 . 2 cm wide ) , with a total mass approximately double that of any other species ( eggs may weigh up to 155 gm each ) . mounds are usually constructed on land at the shady base of a tree near water , using sand and vegetation including peat , twigs , tree seeds , and dried leaves . females have been observed beginning nest building a month or more after copulation and laying a clutch of 20 - 60 eggs 1 - 2 weeks after beginning to nest . after eggs are laid , more vegetation is added to the top of the nest by the female . mounds typically measure 45 - 60 cm high and 90 - 110 cm in diameter . eggs are laid just above ground level and the temperature within the nest fluctuates depending on the environment and rainfall ( records in captivity of 26\u00b0c - 32\u00b0c ) . eggs hatch after 90 - 100 days . captive breeding initiatives have shown that abundant vegetation improves the chances of breeding because it provides more cover and nesting material for the female . both sexes reach sexual maturity at around 20 years of age ( females measuring 2 . 5 - 3 m in length ) .", "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 .", "the evolutionary relationship of tomistoma with other crocodilians was debated for many years , and the species was usually aligned with the true crocodiles ( crocodylidae ) based on morphological evidence ( norell 1989 , tarsitano et al . 1989 , brochu 1997 ) . molecular studies since the 1980s suggest a closer relationship to gavialis ( densmore 1983 , densmore and dessauer 1984 , gatesy and amato 1992 , harshman et al . 2003 , mcaliley et al . 2006 ) . a recent molecular study found that tomistoma shares gene sequences with gavialis which are absent from crocodylus , mecistops ( see shirley 2010 ) and osteolaemus , suggesting tomistoma should be placed within the family gavialidae ( willis et al . 2007 ) .", "reasons for change a downgrade in iucn red list status from endangered to vulnerable is warranted because surveys indicate the species persists over a wide global range . it has clearly declined in many areas and ongoing habitat loss suggests these declines are continuing .", "brunei darussalam : few crocodile surveys conducted to date ( e . g . das and charles 2000 , cox 2006 ) and possibly none targeting inland swamp forests , where t . schlegelii are most likely to occur . a crocodile photographed by an expatriate resident in 2005 at tutong river was confirmed by rbs ( from examination of the photograph ) to be a t . schlegelii ( stuebing et al . 2006 ) . there is no reason to suggest this was a released individual and it is the first confirmed national record .", "java \u2013 status unclear . koningsberger ( 1913 : 376 ) noted ( in translation ) \u2018whether , apart from c . porosus , t . schlegelii also occurs in java , is a question that cannot be answered with certainty . . \u2019 . meer mohr ( 1921 ) noted ( in translation ) \u2018according to strauch , t . schlegelii occurs in java\u2026the only specimen from java is in the museum in stuttgart [ germany ] . . . the origin of this specimen is uncertain . . . further work is required to clarify the status of t . schlegelii in java . . \u2019 . more recently , unconfirmed local reports of t . schlegelii have been obtained from one site , ujung kulon national park ( auliya 2002 ) . the most detailed account of crocodiles for this park is by hoogerwerf ( 1970 ) , who does not mention the species . given the small size of the park and modified nature of surrounding lands , any populations are presumably small .", "kalimantan \u2013 confirmed records are from tanjung puting national park ( central kalimantan province ; e . g . galdikas and yeager 1984 , galdikas 1985 , simpson 2004 , auliya et al . 2006 ) , the mahakam and belayan river systems and mesangat lake ( east kalimantan province ; endert 1927 , meijard and sozer 1996 , ross et al . 1998 , staniewicz 2011 ) and upper kapuas river area , danau sentarum and gunung palung national parks ( west kalimantan province ; bezuijen et al . 2004 and references therein ; simpson and mediyansyah 2009 ) ; no con\ufb01rmed wild records from south kalimantan province . the species is likely to persist in many other locations in kalimantan , and the limited number of confirmed localities probably reflects low sampling effort .", "sumatra \u2013 all known records are from eastern sumatra , east of the barisan mountain ranges ( bezuijen et al . 1998 ) . scattered populations persist from north sumatra to south sumatra provinces , with an isolated population in way kambas national park ( lampung province ) . the range of t . schlegelii in sumatra has declined by at least 30 % since the 1950s due to hunting and habitat loss ( bezuijen et al . 1998 ) .", "thailand : status unclear . reported to have occurred ( e . g . smith 1916 , taylor 1970 ) but records vague and inconclusive . no reports since at least the 1970s ; previous authors have postulated the species may be extirpated ( humphrey and bain 1990 , ratanakorn 1994 ) or that historical records may have referred to localities in northern peninsular malaysia ( stuebing et al . 2006 ) .", "viet nam : status unclear . a wild crocodile captured in 1967 was reported to be this species ( mucelli 2005 ) . given the severe threats facing two confirmed crocodile species in viet nam , crocodylus siamensis and c . porosus , it seems likely that even if t . schlegelii was historically present , it has been extirpated .", "tomistoma schlegelii is a cryptic species and swamp forest habitats are difficult to access : many surveys may have under -

kt is affected by the fluctuation of cortisol ; elevated cortisol levels results in the inhibition of 11 - kt synthesis , thereby keeping gonads intact in suppressed ip females as well as allowing ip males to retain their reproductive function without the tp coloration since the lack of 11 -

feed zones . except lionfish don\u2019t abide . flook said lionfish target these cleaning stations in bermudian waters , not only eating the cleaners but all the fish in need of a tune - up .", "as previously mentioned , when the dominant tp male disappears from his harem , the largest ip female is prompted to take over . once the largest fish of the harem detects the absence of the territorial dominant male , it immediately undergoes transitional changes in order to replace the missing leader . this process is a response to a social cue that is regulated by the change in hormones . during sex change , there are rapid changes in behavior , such as increased aggression and the beginnings of typical t - tp male courtship conduct , as well as permanent color change . additionally , the gonads in the ip female change dramatically . that is , the ovaries of the ip female that contain no detectable testicular tissue are transformed into perfect testes . within a week of changing from a large , yellow wrasse to a large , blue and green wrasse , the former female is already producing sperm and fertilizing the eggs laid by the females in the territory .", "most research involving the blue head wrasse revolves around its ability to change sex . in a study by robert warner and stephen swearer , social control of sex change was studied . they found that \u201coverall , there was a very strong response to the removal of tp and [ early terminal phase ] males on the experimental reefs\u201d ( warner ) . following the removal of the tp males , it was always the largest individuals in the group that took their place as dominant males .", "what is the neurochemical basis of such changes ? to recap , aggression and courtship behavior demonstrated by t - tp males is a means of suppressing sex change in ip females as well as nt - tp males . only when the suppression condition is lifted can sex change take place or be completed ( ross , 1989 ) . the dominated fish are placed under chronic social stress , thereby increasing their levels of cortisol ( perry and grober , 2003 ) . the changes in the levels of cortisol in turn affect the expression of arginine vasotocin ( avt ) . cortisol and avt have an inverse relationship . for the bluehead wrasse , behavioral sex change is associated with an increase of avt . thus , t -

aged cattleman from the little cow town of flatonia , texas , is in no immediate peril of being mistaken for a werewolf , though even his best friends would have to admit that there are points of resemblance . at night long strings of empties rattle through flatonia , and when the engineers whistle for the crossing there often is heard an answering call from out on the range . the wolves of texas , after all these years , are still inclined to think of the night trains as brethren , and their answering howls easily could be taken from the sound track of a werewolf movie . no hair grows on earl needham ' s face when these cries are heard across the prairie , but in other respects he is likely to emulate our movie hero . carefully remembering to open the door first , needham rushes into the night , jumps into his pickup truck , drives out to his camp house , assembles his pack of hounds and rides to the hunt .", "wolf hunters can tell exactly what ' s going on during a hunt by the sounds made by their dogs , by what they call the dog ' s \" mouth . \" \" we got all kinds , \" needham says , \" and you just have to learn to tell ' em apart , one by one . we got dogs that on a cold trail they may be bawlin ' , wailin ' and squallin ' . then they get on up there close to that wolf and they ' ll begin to chop a little bit , shorter barks . they ' re changin ' their mouth now , and you can tell from this how things are goin ' . course , there ' s different mouth dogs\u2014some of them are squallin ' mouth dogs till they start runnin ' , but a squallin ' mouth dog don ' t usually give as much mouth when he starts to runnin ' a wolf . there ' s chop mouth , coarse mouth , fine mouth , horn mouth that sounds like a horn , and bawlin ' dogs . we got a dog that ' s a goose - mouth dog and another one is a turkey - mouth dog : talk , talk , talk , talk , like a old turkey gobbler . we got dogs with high screamin ' mouths that gives a lot of mouth , very loud , and they scare a wolf and make ' em move out and tire their - selves . when my dogs take out after a wolf , i can tell each dog and what he ' s doing and what his mouth means . you get to know ' em . it ' s just like you listenin ' to a crowd of people and you can recognize different voices . \"", "with time running out , the government took desperate and drastic action : it decided to remove the red wolves and put them in captivity with hopes of reintroducing them into the wild someday . despite the hope and intent of the endangered species act , wildlife managers decided to make the red wolf extinct in the wild in order to save it .", "the gray wolf eats animals ranging from mice to cows and spends around one - third of its time in search of food . it becomes engorged by eating a fifth of its weight at a single meal , then goes three or four days without food . though it usually runs in packs , pioneer texans also noted that the lobo hunts in pairs . the female snaps at a cow ' s nose , while the male watches for an opportunity to dart in and sever the victim ' s hamstring . because the gray wolf often eats its victims alive , one stockman called it the \" cruelest predator . \" in the 1880s in dakota country , theodore roosevelt called it the \" beast of waste and desolation . \"", "the demise of mexican wolves in texas was complete by 1970 . in that year , two were killed in december at separate locations in brewster county where big bend national park is located . under natural conditions , wolves fed on a large variety of animals , with deer making up a large percentage of the total . opportunistically , they will feed on just about anything , including rabbits , squirrels , birds and reptiles . when natural game is scarce , wolves may take livestock , but in a functioning , healthy ecosystem this is the exception , not the rule .", "as if the poor hound dog doesn ' t have enough problems , he is expected to follow a code of ethics as strict and inflexible as the rules for admission to the junior league . \" silent trailing , \" for example , is a major breach of the code . a silent trailer will jump a wolf track and go off in quiet pursuit , single - o , leaving the pack far behind . if he catches up to the wolf , he won ' t be able to make the kill alone and may well pay the supreme penalty for his rashness . the proper behavior for a dog that cuts a wolf ' s trail is to bark bloody murder , thus bringing the whole pack into the chase and improving the odds . the converse of the silent trailer is the dog that begins barking just for the sheer dizzy joy of being out in the country of a pleasant evening . \" we call this kind of dog a babbler , \" says needham . \" he shoots off his mouth for nothin ' and drags the whole rest of the pack with him . \"", "a smart wolf will run straight for a hole in a barbed - wire fence in the dead of night ; the hounds will come caterwauling up , slam into the barbed wire , then waste time trying to find the hole . in the meantime , the wolf has come back through the fence via another hole . wolves even have learned to run along the highway , a most unnatural place for so wild an animal . the pavement does not hold scent as well as brush , and auto fumes make it hard for the hounds to pick up what little scent there is . wolves will run through herds of cattle , confusing the issue still more , or take a shortcut through a backyard , mixing scents with the local watchdogs .", "in 1973 , congress passed the endan\u00adgered species act , and the red wolf was one of the first animals listed . the first goal was to protect the wolves in their remaining territory , and the government started trapping coyotes to prevent the red wolves from being genetically swamped . the effort didn\u2019t work . the wolves were surrounded by an ever - encroaching sea of coyotes .", "wolf dogs are trained and treated like scholarship athletes at ucla . needham ' s own pack runs from 15 dogs up ; the number is always changing , because hounds are killed by wolves and new dogs are brought in and others die when they get to be about 6 , old age for a working wolf hound . needham has no stomach for training his own dogs ; he has found the necessary techniques too offensive to his own gentle nature . \" the way they train dogs to fight wolves , \" he says , \" is they ' ll catch coyotes in traps and they ' ll tie the coyotes ' mouths , which is cruel , and i ' ve never been able to do anything like that in my life . then they ' ll turn the coyote loose and let the young dogs catch him and kill him . when the dogs learn how to do that , they ' ll let one coyote go without his mouth being tied , and then the dogs ' ll learn a little more . they get some of those hounds so highly trained they ' ll tear through a screened wire so they can get at a wolf . \"", "\u201cred wolves , which are big - eared and short - coated , slender , spindly , stilt - legged for coursing through the southern marshes or under tall forests , have always impressed observers as being rather rudimentary and unemphatic for wolves , \u201d writes edward hoagland in his essay \u201clament of the red wolf . \u201d \u201cbehaviorally they resemble gray wolves ; ecologically they are more like coyotes . \u201d", "these wolfdogs are sold as pets to individuals who do not have a full understanding of what they are getting themselves into . often , the owners realize very quickly that wolfdogs do not make ideal pets . they have the wary instincts of a wolf , dislike feeling trapped indoors , and may not easily trust humans . as a result , they are often abandoned , through no fault of their own .", "seriously , there aren\u2019t words to express the beauty of these animals . she made three whole passes , and seemed to love having her back scratched \u2014 her leg even motored a little , like my pups at home . it was definitely possible to see her more wolf - like traits , though . her long , athletic legs , narrow chest , and those yellow - tinted eyes are a dead giveaway .", "\u201cit seems like you\u2019re going backward , \u201d says david rabon , coordinator of the red wolf recovery program for the u . s . fish and wildlife service . \u201cyou\u2019re given this new piece of legislation to go out there and save the planet , save these species . and one of the first things you do is go : \u2018we\u2019ll extirpate them in the wild . \u2019\u201d but , he added , it was the right thing to do .", "soon the excuse may be gone . civilization , that implacable enemy of hunter and hunted alike , is approaching flatonia ; a freeway is inching across from san antonio to houston , and earl needham reckons that it will pass \" right behind my dog pen . \" nothing would kill wolf hunting faster than an uncrossable modern turnpike . earl talked to the authorities about this encroachment on his constitutional right to foray all over the country in search of the red wolf , \" and i told them they ' re agonna have to build them a underpass for my dogs to run . \" then , with the look of a stubborn old texan digging in for a long range war , needham added : \" yes sir , that ' s all they are to it ! \" with his code of ethics , his faithful hound dogs and his chili pateens all going for him , needham would seem to be the favorite .", "also like major league pitchers , wolf hounds are expected to perform as specialists , not as all - round stars . their job is to find , chase and kill wolves , and nothing else but wolves . and if their attention wanders off to other forms of wildlife , they are sent back to the minors . to chase anything but wolves is called \" trashing , \" and a dog that \" trashes \" is subjected to stiff punishment . \" a lot of hunters will whup the whey out of a dog that trashes , \" says needham , \" and i ' ve even known ' em to shoot their own dogs in the tail with a light load of no . 7 shot from a . 410 . it ' s like a sharp spray , but the noise scares ' em , and pretty soon they learn that they ' re gonna get hurt if they open on anything but a wolf trail . \""]}

the ribs strengthen the shell structure and make it harder for predators ( in this case , crabs ) to crush it . however , b . arethusae ' s possible predators are unknown : there is no record of crabs in itabora\u00ed or other possible predators known for crushing shells , such as beetles ( symondson , 2004 ) ; still , some small mammals , also potential predators ( allen , 2004 ) , do occur in itabora\u00ed , but possibly not in the same sequence as the brasilennea ( bergqvist et al . , 2006 ) . in any case , the shell of b . arethusae would be more resistant to predation due to its strong ribs .", "etymology : maury ( 1935 ) considered the newfound species very similar to the african genus ennea and thus named the new genus brasilennea , meaning \" brazilian ennea \" .", "shell shape , structure and sculpture : in respect to the general shell shape , brasilennea strongly resembles the typical cerionidae : a thick , pupiform and multispiral shell , with acuminated apex ( triphasic sensu gould , 1989 ) , hollow columella ( at least in first whorls ) , and the shape , placement and size of aperture ( schileyko , 1999b ) . also , b . arethusae has strong and regularlyspaced ribs that become less oblique towards the shell aperture , as commonly seen in cerionids ( schileyko , 1999b ) . the ribs in the other brasilennea species are weaker , but still raised and well - marked .", "discussion : b . minor was originally described as a smaller sympatric variety of b . arethusae by trindade ( 1956 ) , but it was lately elevated to the category of species by brito ( 1967 ) , using the sympatry as one of the reasons for such . b . minor specimens are smaller than the smallest specimen of b . arethusae , showing no overlapping in size distribution . b . minor shows a smaller number of whorls than the other brasilennea species : usually 9 ( 8 or 10 whorls are not uncommon ) . the whorls of b . minor are more convex and its shell is weaker and thinner than the other species . it has a greater number of ribs and they are also weaker . the basal furrow in the body whorl is more weakly marked . b . minor also shows some variation in shell shape besides whorl number as , for example , thinner and more elongated specimens ( fig . 25 ) ;

bergqvist et al . , 2006 ) . despite its small size , itabora\u00ed basin houses an astounding fossil record in its limestones .", "these limestones started to be explored in 1933 for the production of cement , and fossils were found there almost as soon as the excavations had begun . the first fossils discovered were the gastropods , but , as excavations proceeded , many other were found , including plants , mammals , reptiles , birds , palynomorphs , coprolites and , of course , more mollusks ( maury , 1929 , 1935 ; bergqvist et al . , 2006 ) . these fossils alongside the basin ' s geology were studied almost exclusively by researchers of two institutions from rio de janeiro : the museu nacional ( national museum ) and the divis\u00e3o de geologia e mineralogia of the departamento nacional de produ\u00e7\u00e3o mineral ( division of geology and mineralogy of the national department of mineral production ) .", "the exploration lasted until 1984 , at which point the vast majority of itabora\u00ed ' s outcrops were already destroyed by the quarrying , and little of its limestone remained . after the limestone extraction ceased , the quarry was abandoned and a lake formed in the basin , leaving the few remaining outcrops underwater ( bergqvist et al . , 2008 ) . therefore , it is currently hard to obtain new fossil specimens from itabora\u00ed , as they can only be found in a few restricted sites above water level . as such , any posterior work depended heavily upon data from the literature and museum specimens ( e . g . , medeiros & bergqvist , 1999 ) . still , itabora\u00ed is a very important fossiliferous site and on december 12 , 1985 a park was created for its preservation , called parque paleontol\u00f3gico de s\u00e3o jos\u00e9 de itabora\u00ed ( beltr\u00e3o et al . , 2001 ; bergqvist et al . , 2008 ) .", "according to the last works that listed the fossil mollusks from itabora\u00ed , there are 18 ( simone & mezzalira , 1994 ) or 17 species ( bergqvist et al . , 2006 ) in the basin . three more ( two new species and a new occurrence ) were added to this list by salvador & simone ( 2012 ) . in any case , up to this moment the studies dealing with itabora\u00ed basin ' s molluscan fauna consist almost exclusively of the original descriptions ; no taxonomic revision under a larger scope has been so far produced . as such , many taxonomic problems and inconsistencies have been readily identified , most stemming from the fact that the original descriptions were overly based on comparisons with european genera and species . therefore , this work intends to review the taxonomy of the entire itaborahian molluscan fauna . as the original descriptions ( with the exception of maury , 1935 ) are too brief and incomplete , we expand and complement them , figuring all type material and other well - preserved specimens , and offering a proper diagnosis for each taxon . additionally , two new species , previously misidentified , were found in museum collections and are described herein .", "itabora\u00ed basin is a small tectonic depression dating from the mesozoic , probably related to the tectonic activities during the separation of gondwana ; it rests on a pre - cambrian crystalline basement , over the brazilian southeastern continental rift ( beurlen & sommer , 1954 ; rodrigues francisco & cunha , 1978 ; rodrigues francisco , 1989 ; medeiros & bergqvist , 1999 ; sant ' anna & riccomini , 2001 ; sant ' anna et al . , 2004 ) . the basin was then filled by carbonatic sediments during the paleocene ( rodrigues francisco & cunha , 1978 ; medeiros & bergqvist , 1999 ) . the resulting limestones were named \" itabora\u00ed formation \" by oliveira ( 1956 ) , but this name was almost never used afterwards ; the majority of authors prefer simply \" itabora\u00ed basin \" . we follow this practice here .", "the first work dealing with the basin ' s geology ( leinz , 1938 ) defined three rock horizons : laminated limestone , gray limestone and eluvial sediment . this definition still remains basically valid , having received only posterior refinements . the most up - to - date geological profile ( medeiros & bergqvist , 1999 ) defines and names two stratigraphic sequences for the basin ' s paleocene limestones : sequence s1 lies at the bottom , directly above the pre - cambrian rocks ; and sequence s2 consists of sediments that filled fissures opened in s1 by water activity .", "sequence s1 is composed of an intercalation of carbonatic rocks of chemical and detrital origins . the chemically originated rocks ( named facies a ) are mainly travertine , linked to hydrothermal activity inside the basin . the grey detrital limestones ( facies b ) are the product of gravitational and hydrodynamic fluxes towards the basin ' s interior and contain all known fossil mollusks as well as some plant , reptilian and mammalian remains . facies c is composed of oolitic - pisolitic limestone , being associated to facies a .", "sequence s2 is also carbonatic and the result of torrent and gravitational flows . its clastic rocks contain the bulk of the basin ' s fossil vertebrate fauna as well as plants and palynomorphs . a third sequence , named s3 , is composed of conglomerates and was deposited on top of the others much later , in the eocene - oligocene . it harbors reptilian and mammalian fossils .", "after much disagreement about itabora\u00ed basin ' s age , the mammalian fossils allowed the correlation with the upper paleocene fauna of rio chico formation , argentina ( paula couto , 1952 ) . it is currently agreed that both sequences s1 and s2 belong to a time interval ranging from the end of the lower paleocene to the beginning of the upper paleocene ( from about 59 to 57 ma , according to bergqvist et al . 2006 ) , which has been informally named \" middle paleocene \" ( marshall , 1985 ; medeiros & bergqvist , 1999 ) . sequence s1 is younger , of itaborahian age ( according to the nomenclature of the south american land mammalian age ) , while s2 is partly itaborahian and partly riochican ( bergqvist & ribeiro , 1998 ) .", "institutional abbreviations : amnh : american museum of natural history , new york , usa . dgm : divis\u00e3o de geologia e mineralogia ( recently transformed into the mct ) , rio de janeiro , rj , brazil . mct : museu de ci\u00eancias da terra , rio de janeiro , rj , brazil . mnrj : museu nacional , rio de janeiro , rj , brazil . mzsp : museu de zoologia da universidade de s\u00e3o paulo , s\u00e3o paulo , sp , brazil .", "examined material : the material from itabora\u00ed analyzed here ( 79 lots ;

( 1952 ) : h = shell length ( or height ) ; d = greatest width ( or diameter ) of shell ; s = spire length ( without the aperture ) ; h = aperture height ; d = aperture width ; \u03b8 ' = spire angle ( the \" mean spire angle \" sensu moore , 1960 , approximated to the closest multiple of five ) . all measures were taken with a digital caliper or , in the case of microgastropods ( smaller than 5 mm ) , with the aid of coreldraw \u00ae graphics suit x5 . unfortunately , not every shell is well - preserved or even completely preserved and thus some measures could not be precisely taken or taken at all ( such imprecise measures are indicated by italicized numbers ) . when specimens are abundant , the mean and standard deviation is presented . the whorl counting method follows janssen ( 2007 ) , i . e . , excluding the semicircular nucleus of the protoconch , and thus the total number of whorls can vary a little ( \u00bc to \u00bd whorl ) when compared to other works .", "nomenclatural update : here we follow the work of bouchet et al .

wing katydids ( microcentrum rhombifolium ) can be 52 - 63 millimeters long and are quite heavy . the lesser angle - wing katydid ( m . retinerve ) is another prey species , as is scudderia furcata , the fork - tailed bush katydid . an average of three paralyzed katydids goes into each cell in the nest , a single egg being laid on the first of those victims .", "the wasp larva that hatches from the egg feeds and grows for about ten days , eventually reaching a length of 30 - 35 millimeters , and a diameter of 7 - 10 millimeters . larval insects are almost always larger than the adult stage because so much energy is spent in the pupal stage . the larva probably passes the winter in a pre - pupal state , pupating the following spring and then emerging in summer .", "female great black wasps are incredibly successful at finding katydids . one field researcher , reverend john a . frisch of woodstock college in maryland plugged the nest entrances in one aggregation . the result was 252 katydids piled up in only five days . that worked out to an average of nearly 17 katydids per wasp per day ( evans , 1963 ) . the wasps fly with that heavy load , too .", "hauling a large , heavy katydid back to the nest can attract unwanted attention , and one entomologist in rhode island observed house sparrows ( passer domesticus ) and , to a lesser degree , gray catbirds ( dumetella carolinensis ) intercepting female wasps and relieving them of their paralyzed prey . as many as one - third of return trips by all the female wasps observed ended this way : empty - handed ( benntinen & preisser , 2009 ) .", "the adult wasps themselves can be parasitized by paraxenos westwoodi , one of the insects called stylopids or \u201ctwisted -

headed gull as inland waters or coastal . this gull seems to have a definite preference for the sewage ponds , this pond in particular , and even the same side of this pond . there are about 10 ponds at the sewage works , five others which appear to be identical . however , the silver gulls seem to prefer this pond and one other , although most spend their time loafing on the bank . there are many other places around broome where silver gulls congregate in numbers such as the main town oval , cable beach , the pearl coast zoo and near the crab creek mangroves .", "response : this is a common black - headed gull , chroicocephalus ridibundus , in winter plumage . gulls are all placed into the taxonomic family , laridae . the smallest species take two years to reach adulthood ( known as \" two - year gulls \" ) , whilst medium - sized species are three - year gulls and the largest species are four - year gulls . juveniles have distinct plumages that correspond to each year , so a skilled birder can determine the age of a young bird .", "habitat : black - headed gull frequents marshes , fresh and brackish ponds and lakes for breeding , but some populations may nest is relatively dry sites such as sand dunes and beaches . all year round , this species frequents a wide variety of habitats such as shallow water ( coastal or inland ) , rivers and estuaries . it may be found inland , at fairly low elevation , and within towns and cities if water is available . this species lives from temperate areas to the boreal forest edges of palaearctic .", "winter plumage adults , like the individual in this photograph , have a white head with a large dark smudge behind their eyes , red bill and legs and , in flight , their long slender wings show a large white triangle on the upper leading edge . adults in breeding plumage are distinct from all other black -

description of a little - known species , mobula kuhlii .", "owing to its schooling behaviour and apparent benthic feeding habit , the smoothtail mobula is highly vulnerable to gillnet fishing . as may be expected of a highly mobile schooling species , large numbers are caught episodically in traditional fisheries in the gulf of california . although there is no fishery information outside of mexico , there is also a high possibility that it is caught as bycatch in numerous other fisheries throughout its range . consequently , there is great concern that catch rates may be unsustainable , particularly given this species\u2019 low reproductive output ( 1 ) .", "the group of cartilaginous fish in the family mobulidae ( mobulid rays ) consists of two genera , manta and mobula , with two and nine species respectively 1 , 2 . all mobulid rays have diamond shaped bodies , wing - like pectoral fins used for propulsion , and five pairs of gill slits . they usually inhabit pelagic zones 3 , 4 . mobulids are often called \u201cdevil rays\u201d because of the cephalic fins on the front of their heads that resemble \u201chorns\u201d . the cephalic fins unfurl and help guide water into their mouths , and modified gill features filter zooplankton and small fish , their primary food sources 5 - 7 .", "in common with other species in the mobulidae family , the smoothtail mobula has long , pointed , pectoral fins which it strokes up and down , like wings , for propulsion ( 2 ) ( 3 ) . on either side of the head , and in front of its prominent eyes , are two fleshy lobes that project forward to funnel food into the mouth ( 3 ) ( 4 ) . the dorsal fin is small , and the tail is long , flattened and spineless . the upper surface of its body is generally dark purplish to mauve - grey , while the underside is white , becoming blue - grey towards the \u2018wing - tips\u2019 ( 3 ) ( 5 ) .", "having only been discovered as recently as 1988 , information on the biology of the smoothtail mobula is still relatively fragmentary ( 1 ) . however , it is well known for forming large schools , appearing as conspicuous dark patches slowly cruising along the shallow coastline . typically , its occurrence in any particular location is unpredictable , with large numbers sometimes gathering in an area for a few days , before disappearing for weeks or even months ( 1 ) ( 6 ) . another remarkable feature of this species is the frequency with which individuals breach the water\u2019s surface , often simultaneously . the breaching behaviour is characterised by a variety of acrobatic manoeuvres , including head over tail somersaulting and high vertical leaps , followed by loud belly slaps ( 6 ) .", "marine ; pelagic -

wide declines are inferred based on catch landings , trawl - survey indices , and diver sightings ( couturier", "devil rays have population sizes likely one or two orders of magnitude greater than manta rays , have larger geographic ranges , and larger migratory movements . this makes devil rays more challenging to assess than manta rays . by comparison , manta rays can be easily locally depleted because they appear to be restricted geographically , and hence declines are likely to be genus - wide . the bentfin devil ray is less frequently encountered in catches compared to other species of devil ray , which makes this species particularly difficult to assess compared to devil rays that are more frequently encountered ( e . g . , the chilean devil ray ) . given the paucity of data across the entire", "genus , most population trend data for devil rays are not species - specific . hence , most of the decline rates in this assessment were necessarily inferred from these genus - wide declines . local population trend data are available from market landings , a trawl survey index , and diver surveys .", "given the patchy nature of the bentfin devil ray\u2019s occurrence , its range has been divided into seven regions for the purpose of this assessment : indo - west pacific , central pacific , eastern pacific , western atlantic , eastern atlantic , indian ocean , and australia . next , the status of this species in each of these regions was considered , before drawing these together into a global estimate of population reduction .", "in indonesia , catches of the bentfin devil ray were recorded in the country\u2019s three largest devil ray landing sites ( tanjung luar , lombok ; lamakera , solor ; cilacap , west java ) . landed mobulid ( devil and manta ray ) catch was estimated to have declined by 77", ". 2015 ) . local population depletions can be inferred from an increase in the number of operating fishing vessels concurrent with these landed catch declines . the number of vessels catching devil rays from tanjung luar has increased since 2014 but any longer - term trend is unquantifiable owing to a lack of effort data . from lamakera however , the number of vessels fishing devil rays has approximately doubled since 2001 ( s . lewis , unpublished data ) . although this species is suspected to be naturally rare compared to its congener the chilean devil ray ( compagno 1999 ) based on catch proportions , in tanjung luar it was the most commonly caught devil ray species from 2013\u201314 , making up 49 % of total catch ( lewis", "there appears to have been a recent expansion and collapse of devil ray fisheries due population depletion in bohol , philippines . historically , from the 1900s to 1960s the devil ray fishing grounds were inshore ( within five km of shore ) , but subsequently expanded to offshore waters extending over the jurisdiction of municipal waters ( 15 km from the coastline ) following fleet modernization in the 1970s . by 2014 , the devil ray fishing grounds had contracted to a smaller area in the northeast of the bohol sea , suggesting a decrease in devil ray fishing effort led by several factors including a possible depletion of fishing grounds and decrease in financial viability of the fishery , compared to historical records ( j . acebes and a . ponzo , unpublished data ) .", "interviews with fishermen in the philippines indicate villages take as many as 1 , 000 devil rays per year , and the number of villages and fishermen participating in the fishery expanded through 2002 . this is concurrent with declines in catch rates , therefore local population declines can be inferred but not quantified ( alava", "population reductions can be suspected or inferred from three forms of data : ( i ) diver sightings from cocos island , ( ii ) bycatch rates in tuna purse seine fleet , and ( iii ) fisheries landings in peru .", ". 2015 ) . over this time period , devil rays were generally rare and seen on only 7 % of dives . while species - level identifications were not available in this study , area dive operators report the chilean devil ray as the species generally sighted ( e . herreno , pers . comm . 2012 ) , so it is unclear whether the bentfin devil ray occurs in lower numbers or not at all . the degree to which this index reflects wider population reduction remains to be fully understood , however , the cocos island is one of the world\u2019s oldest marine protected areas , and lies within the area of activity of the eastern tropical pacific tuna purse seine fisheries , which take large numbers of devil rays as incidental catch ( croll", ". 2015 ) . fishing effort and species - specific data from this region are currently unavailable for quantification of declines .", "the inter - american tropical tuna commission ( iattc ) catch and bycatch data for devil rays from purse seine fisheries in the eastern pacific between 1998 and 2009 show a significant increase from < 1t in 1998 to > 80t in 2006 , and a subsequent decline over three years until 2009 , where the reported catch was 40t ( hall and roman 2013 ) . while population trends cannot be directly taken from grouped species bycatch data such as these , this pattern may be indicative of overall devil ray population declines following overexploitation in the region , depending on the corresponding trajectory of fishing effort .", "already in the early 1980s concern existed over the sustainability of bentfin devil ray catch in the gulf of california ( mexico ) . growth overfishing may have been occurring as 72 % of individuals caught were immature ( notarbartolo di sciara 1988 ) . since this study in the 1980s , however , no data have been published on the bentfin devil ray in these waters , so it is impossible to determine catch trends over time .", ". 2010 ) , to 135t in 2013 ( imarpe 2014 ) , although reported devil ray landings fluctuate considerably from year to year . llanos", ".

term effects of reduced ice cover on bowhead whales in the western arctic appear to be positive , due to increased feeding opportunities ( george et al . 2015 , moore 2016 ) . however , the long - term effects are less clear . the emergence of bowheads as a separate , ice -

shaped ) formation .", "heavy commercial hunting , beginning in the 1500s , depleted all populations of bowheads . the bering - chukchi - beaufort sea stock has recovered substantially since the end of commercial hunting in the early 20th century to around 10 , 000 animals , while recent provisional estimates of the hudson bay - foxe basin and baffin bay - davis strait stocks suggest that a significant recovery has probably occurred . there is no reliable evidence of recovery of the svalbard - barents sea and okhotsk sea stocks . limited aboriginal subsistence whaling on the bcb stock ( by native peoples of alaska and chukotka ) is permitted by the iwc on the basis of advice from its scientific committee ( most recently under its new aboriginal subsistence whaling management procedure ) . these takes have not impeded the recovery of the stock . very small takes by indigenous hunters are allowed in canadian waters , so far too few to seriously impede recovery of the stocks , but there will be pressure to increase these takes given the recent , higher population estimates for the eastern canadian arctic . there has been concern since the 1970s that disturbance from oil and gas exploration and extraction activities in the arctic region might affect bowhead whales . there is also evidence of incidental mortality and serious injury caused by entanglement in fishing gear and ship strikes ( philo et al . 1992 , 1993 ; finley 2000 ) . environmental threats , such as pollution ( bratton et al . 1993 ) , and disturbance from tourist traffic ( finley 2000 ) may affect bowhead whales but the impacts have not yet been well characterized or quantified . during this century , a profound reduction in the extent of sea ice in the arctic is expected , and possibly a complete disappearance in summer , as mean arctic temperatures rise faster than the global average ( anonymous 2005 ) . the implications of this for bowhead whales are unclear but warrant monitoring ."]}

copulatory .", "the third phase is often directed to a female approaching the lek . the male crouches while its head is retracted . it sways side to side and flaps the wings , producing the whirring sounds . the long throat feathers are fluffed forwards and upwards as the wings are raised and fanned .", "the female which visits a lek for mating , usually joins the male in a dance of jumps between a stem and the mating perch , both birds crossing each other in the air . then , the female remains on the mating perch . at this moment , the male performs the pre -

( 2013 ) looked at cranial development within the puma clade and found that while this is similar in cheetah and puma , that of the jaguarundi is quite different . given these phylogenetic uncertainties , and these and other morphological and behavioural differences , the iucn ssc cat specialist group retains this species in herpailurus .", "the u . s . fish and wildlife service ( fws ) estimated more than a 90 percent decline in lower rio grande valley brushland in texas and described the habitat as rapidly disappearing along the rio grande in mexico as well . from 1991 to 2000 alone , approximately 113 , 126 acres of suitable jaguarundi habitat were destroyed in south texas . precious thornscrub in the rio grande valley is disappearing at an alarming rate . that\u2019s a serious blow for both the jaguarundi and the ocelot , which both depend on this increasingly rare habitat type . and , like many other animals on the border between the u . s . and mexico , the jaguarundi is threatened by a myriad of human border activities including immigration , drug trafficking , police and military actions , border installations and fences , and artificial lighting . to create a safe haven for the jaguarundi and a host of other trans - border animals , scientists and land managers on both sides of the border are calling for international cooperation between the u . s . and mexico . this is in stark contrast to the current national u . s . drive to separate the people and ecosystems of the two countries . preservation of the biodiversity of both countries will require a consistent , dedicated effort from the u . s . and mexican governments working in collaboration . but such action has not been forthcoming .", "\u201cthis recovery plan is a long overdue and important step to safeguarding rapidly disappearing jaguarundi habitat , \u201d said taylor jones , endangered species advocate for wildearth guardians . \u201cthese beautiful and rare cats waited nearly forty years for a path to recovery . we call on the service to now fully and effectively implement the recovery plan and prevent this species\u2019 extinction . \u201d", "sketch of the jaw bone of a cat found at the ladds fossil site . click to enlarge . dr . clayton ray thought this specimen was most like the jaw bone of a jaguarundi , but other scientists have concluded it\u2019s from a cat that was more like a margay . this page is from the below referenced paper authored by dr . ray .", "the jaguarundi are considered to be solitary animals , that hunt and live alone , except for breeding season which occurs from september to november . after a gestation period of 70 days , birth is given to one or two kittens . they remain dependent on the mother for as long a period as two years , which is quite unusual for predatory mammals .", "photo of a jaw bone of a cat found at the isle of hope site near savannah , georgia . click to enlarge . every measurement of this specimen falls within the size range of both margay and jaguarundi . this means it can\u2019t be conclusively identified . it\u2019s slightly smaller than most specimens identified as leopardus amnicola . page from the below referenced study authored by dr . hulbert .", "development along the u . s . / mexico border also poses threats to the jaguarundi and many other border species . barriers along the border destroy and fragment habitat , reduce access to habitat and resources , including food and water , and isolate wildlife populations . approximately 70 miles of fence have been proposed in the lower rio grande valley , 56 miles of which are already constructed .", "much of the irrigated farmland supported rice production after it was developed . this crop is very beneficial to waterfowl . however , between 1981 and 1998 , rice production has decreased in the state of sinaloa from 65 , 900 to 2 , 400 ha . this was correlated with a drop in use of the region by northern pintail from 880 , 000 birds in 1989 , to 228 , 000 in 1990 and 310 , 000 for 1991 . about 5 , 000 ha of 21 . 2 million ha of agricultural land on the west coast is currently in rice production . these changes are due to production costs in comparison to other crops .", "contrary to earlier characterizations of this species as relatively common and abundant ( nowell and jackson 1996 ) , research indicates that the jaguarundi is an uncommon , low density species . densities are very low everywhere it has been sampled , and jaguarundis are more commonly found at 0 . 01 - 0 . 05 / km\u00b2 or lower ( de oliveira et al . submitted ) , but reaching up to 0 . 2 / km\u00b2 in a few and restricted high density areas ( caso 2013 ) . the jaguarundi\u2019s density / numbers are negatively impacted by those of the larger sized ocelot ( the \u201cocelot effect\u201d ) ( de oliveira et al . 2010 , caso 2013 ) . considered near threatened in argentina ( diaz and ojeda 2000 ) and threatened in mexico ( semarnat 2010 ) .", "jaguarundis plays an important role in terrestrial ecosystems through control of their prey species , which includes small mammals , birds , and other vertebrates . in controlling mice , rats , and rabbits , they also control the population of agricultural pests . the jaguarundi is is not particularly sought after for its fur , but it is suffering decline due to loss of habitat and habitat fragmentation . they also are killed as predators of poultry .", "john petrey i live in lower alabama , specifically robertsdale , in a rural area . yesterday afternoon a cat crossed the road in front of me . it was light colored , not real big , maybe even about the same size as a domestic cat , but the really unique thing about it was its ' tail was extremely long . i ' ve been looking at photos and this jaguarundi is the closest thing i can find .", "the recovery plan stresses identifying , protecting , restoring , and connecting potential habitat in southern texas in the rio grande valley . the u . s . fish and wildlife service also intends to evaluate the possibility of reintroducing jaguarundi in texas . scientists know very little about this shy little cat who quickly heads into the underbrush when disturbed . the recovery plan would include improving techniques for tracking the cats and learning more about them through population and habitat surveys .", "the jaguarundi has a wide distribution across north , central and south america , from southern texas in the united states , south as far as northern argentina ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 6 ) ( 7 ) . it has also been reported from arizona ( 4 ) ( 7 ) , but its status here remains unclear ( 7 ) ( 10 ) , and the species may in fact now be extinct in the united states ( 1 ) .", "the jaguarundi has a wide distribution across north , central and south america , from southern texas in the united states , south as far as northern argentina ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 6 ) ( 7 ) . it has also been reported from arizona ( 4 ) ( 7 ) , but its status here remains unclear ( 7 ) ( 9 ) , and the species may in fact now be extinct in the united states ( 1 ) .", "the jaguarundi is a carnivore and preys upon fish , small mammals , reptiles , amphibians , and birds , including rabbits , mice , rats , junglefowl , and iguanas . some plant material and arthropods are also consumed , based on stomach contents ( rick and lundrigan 2004 ) . while the diet is mostly small animals with a mean prey mass of 380 grams , larger sized prey greater than 1 kilogram is not unusual ( caso et al . 2008 ) .", "the largely diurnal behaviour and open habitats of the jaguarundi mean that it is often the most commonly seen cat within its range , leading to the mistaken belief that it is relatively abundant . now believed to be much less common that previously thought , the species is undergoing a decline , largely as a result of habitat loss and fragmentation as savannas are converted for large -

eyed grass , and buttercups . when green food is still available in winter , the townsend . s vole often stores and eats bulbs at that time . a good swimmer , this vole often constructs the entrances to its burrow system underwater . in summer and winter its nests are constructed of grass . in summer , the nest is placed inside a rounded knoll above water level . in winter , it is placed on dry ground away from water , which might freeze and prevent access . they use runways most of the year except when vegetation in summer is thick enough to completely conceal their bodies and they can move about at will under the cover of the vegetation .", "their burrowing habits also assist in increasing soil aeration . despite what many may think , townsend\u2019s voles are impressive swimmers and they will often readily dive into water . in fact , to better escape some predators , they will often make the entrance to their summer burrows underwater .", "their capability to reproduce every few weeks between april to october each year , as well as their large litter size of up to nine young per female , make townsend\u2019s voles prime candidates for \u201cpest\u201d status on agricultural land . feeding on the roots of grasses , sedges , and other soft -

three individuals per square meter . hence , if the captured specimens of", "fed in this habitat and interacted with other species , we would expect changes in the demographic parameters of residents during this period . however , this is not the case , because the dynamics of the demographic structure in the populations of resident carabid beetles failed to change during this period (", ") . second , relatively high numbers and species diversity levels of migrants were recorded at some seemingly unsuitable sites . these sites included the lakeside salt - marsh with high salt concentrations , poor vegetation and soil , as well as occasional floods . under these conditions , only some specialist", "seasonal variation in abundance curves and reproduction aspects in four resident carabid species coupled with abundance of a migrant -

beetles communities ( makarov and matalin 2009 ) . the former includes species whose life cycles are realized in certain habitats ( residents ) , while the latter comprises species that are not capable of breeding in particular habitats ( migrants and sporadic species ) .", "the ratio of stable to labile components in the studied habitats varied strongly and was not always in favour of residents . resident species comprised only 6\u201335 % of the species list and 15\u201390 % of total abundance . in zonal habitats , residents formed the dominant part of the assemblage . more than 65 % of total abundance and 15\u201335 % of total species diversity consisted of resident species . in azonal habitats the labile component prevailed . these species accounted for about 75 % of the fauna and about 80 % of total abundance (", ") . only in zonal habitats did results from pitfall trapping adequately reflect the state of the carabid community while azonal and apparently disturbed habitats are only transit sites for many species of ground beetles .", "species diversity and the share of labile / stable components in particular habitats in the lake elton region , combined data for 2006 / 07 ( black bars \u2013 labile component , white bars \u2013 stable component , line \u2013 number of species ; n ( sp . ) \u2013 number of species ) .", "firstly , criteria for determining the most abundant , or dominant species inevitably vary . the abundance of migrants in some cases is one order of magnitude higher than that of residents . therefore , estimating the faunistic or community features based solely on abundant or dominant species , fail to solve the problem and can even worsen the situation . in reedbeds , for example , 36 migrant species made up about 83 % of the total abundance . the complex of dominants in this community , as identified by the usual criterion ( abundance exceeding 5 % ) while discarding the demography of individual species , contains only two polyzonal migrants", "numbers of the 10 most abundantly collected carabid species in reedbeds with regards to migrants ( a ) and residents only ( b ) . dominant species are in bold text , combined data for 2006 / 07 ; n ( ex . ) \u2013 number of specimens ( after makarov and matalin 2009 ) .", "secondly , common information regarding the habitat preferences of particular species , as well as indicator species , is considerably altered . in our case , all studied habitats belong to two contrasting groups : dry desert steppes and riparian , more or less halophilic habitats . as such , variation in carabid populations is expected . when analyzing the habitat distribution of all dominants - subdominants , we find more or less eurytopic species inhabiting both zonal dry steppes on floodplain terraces and azonal alluvial salt - marshes . the grouping of dry steppes is very poor and contains one or two species which occur in one to three habitats , as a rule . in contrast , the inhabitants of salt - marshes are very diverse and peculiar . interestingly , the woodland in the \u2018biological\u2019 ravine supports not only a native carabid beetle community , but also a peculiar species ,", ") . results from an analysis of the habitat distribution based solely on residents are distinctly different . only one species ,", ", can be labelled eurytopic because it reproduces in nine of the ten studied habitats . the communities of carabid beetles on floodplain terraces and in flood - plains are clearly isolated from each other . each of them includes the main body of oligotopic species and a few stenotopic ones . finally , the riverine woodland does not have a native carabid community and can be considered a transit habitat for practically all carabid species (", "because we have only very few examples that illustrate more or less close relations between ground beetles and their habitats , we are unable to assess the commonality of the situation described in the present study . however , it is conceivable that migrants in a carabid beetle community contribute to diversity estimates . based on results from this study , some preliminary conclusions can be made .", "a study of the demographic structure of local populations and an assessment of the migratory / residential status of particular carabid species are possible ways to increase the reliability of pitfall trapping information .", "up to 65\u201375 % of species diversity , both of particular habitats and the landscape as a whole , can comprise of non -

known , and so the mosasaurs provided lindgren and colleagues with a good opportunity to see how these peculiar animals evolved .", "the first thing you need to know about mosasaur evolution is that the way they swam was constrained by their anatomy . whales provide a good counterpoint . the ancestors of whales were wolf - like animals which carried their limbs under their bodies , and when they walked their spines undulated in an vertical plane . that\u2019s why whales swim by beating their tails up and down \u2013 their mode of swimming is the product of an anatomical precondition from when their ancestors dwelt on land . the ancestors of mosasaurs , on the other flipper , moved like lizards \u2013 that is , their spines were more flexible from side to side . it\u2019s no wonder , then , that mosasaurs swam by beating their tails back and forth , just like fish and that other group of famous marine reptiles , the ichthyosaurs .", "a handful of recent discoveries have helped paleontologists better understand just how much some of the later mosasaurs became modified to life at sea . mosasaurs have traditionally been reconstructed with long , thin , lizard - like tails . they did not appear to have any specialized tail fins as seen in the shark - like ichthyosaurs . yet evidence that some mosasaurs had such structures has now been found . skeletons of plotosaurus and platecarpus appear to exhibit downward kinks in the posterior part of the tail which could have supported fleshy tail fins . ( significantly , the part of the tail which supports the tail fin kinks upwards in sharks but downwards in marine reptiles \u2013 perhaps as a result of some kind of constraint or contingency . ) these mosasaurs are be another case - with ichthyosaurs and crocodiles - of marine reptiles evolving prominent tail fins independently .", "there is far more detail in the paper , of course \u2013 the entire thing runs 25 pages \u2013 but what strikes me is how very different vertebrates , even those with different anatomical constrains , eased into the seas in similar ways . early whales were up - and - down swimmers , while mosasaurs were side - to - side swimmers , yet they both started off in the shallows and underwent a sequence of modification in which their tails became specialized into specific modules suited for swimming . this is wonderful stuff \u2013 when contingency , constraint , and convergence meet together in a great transformation .", "top image : a modern restoration of the mosasaur platecarpus by dmitry bogdanov . image from wikipedia .", "lindgren , j . , polcyn , m . , & young , b .

[ 53 ] when multiple males mate with one female , there are multiple sets of sperm gametes in a female mouse . offspring fertilized by multiple females can compete more strongly for mother ' s resources and can lead to a decrease in body size and variation in body size . [ 53 ]", "house mice usually live less than one year in the wild , due to a high level of predation and exposure to harsh environments . in protected environments , however , they often live two to three years . the methuselah mouse prize is a competition to breed or engineer extremely long - lived laboratory mice . as of 2005 [ update ] , the record holder was a genetically engineered mouse that lived for 1 , 819 days ( 4 years , 358 days ) .

[ 60 ] human domestication led to numerous strains of \" fancy \" or hobby mice with a variety of colours and a docile temperament . [ 61 ] domestic varieties of the house mouse are bred as a food source for some carnivorous pet reptiles , birds , arthropods , and fish . [ 61 ]", "both evolutionary and behavioral consequences result from the polygamous nature of the house mouse . one consequence is the paternal investment , which is lower in polygamous mice than in mice that are monogamous . [ 44 ] this occurs due to the fact that males spend more time involved in sexual competition than do females , leaving less time for paternal care . [ 44 ] polygamous male house mice spend less time alone with pups . [ 44 ] they are also less likely and slower to retrieve lost pups than males of monogamous mice . [ 44 ] in contrast , the maternal investment is similar between female mice that have mated once versus multiply .

[ 24 ] [ 26 ] when populations have an excess of food , there is less female - female aggression , which usually occurs to gain access to food or to prevent infanticide .

[ 22 ] however , in some areas ( such as australia ) , mice are able to coexist with other small rodent species . [ 23 ]", "house mice also rely on pheromones for social communication , some of which are produced by the preputial glands of both sexes . the tear fluid and urine of male mice also contains pheromones , such as major urinary proteins . [ 34 ] [ 35 ] mice detect pheromones mainly with the vomeronasal organ ( jacobson ' s organ ) , located at the bottom of the nose .", "the urine of house mice , especially that of males , has a characteristic strong odor . at least 10 different compounds , such as alkanes , alcohols , etc . , are detectable in the urine . among them , five compounds are specific to males , namely 3 - cyclohexene - 1 - methanol , aminotriazole ( 3 - amino - s - triazole ) , 4 - ethyl phenol , 3 - ethyl - 2 , 7 - dimethyl octane and 1 - iodoundecane . [ 36 ]", "odours from adult males or from pregnant or lactating females can speed up or retard sexual maturation in juvenile females and synchronise reproductive cycles in mature females ( i . e . the whitten effect ) . odours of unfamiliar male mice may terminate pregnancies , i . e . the bruce effect .", "mice can sense surfaces and air movements with their whiskers which are also used during thigmotaxis . if mice are blind from birth , super - normal growth of the vibrissae occurs presumably as a compensatory response , [ 37 ] or if the vibrissae are absent , the use of vision is intensified . [ 38 ]", "female house mice have an estrous cycle about four to six days long , with estrus itself lasting less than a day . if several females are held together under crowded conditions , they will often not have an estrus at all . if they are then exposed to male urine , they will come into estrus after 72 hours .", "range . the calls are most frequent during courtship when the male is sniffing and following the female ; however , the calls continue after mating has begun , at which time the calls are coincident with mounting behaviour . males can be induced to emit these calls by female pheromones . the vocalizations appear to differ between individuals and have been compared to", "while females have the capability to produce ultrasonic calls , they typically do not do so during mating behaviour .", "the pups are born blind and without fur or ears . the ears are fully developed by the fourth day , fur begins to appear at about six days and the eyes open around 13 days after birth ; the pups are weaned at around 21 days . females reach sexual maturity at about six weeks of age and males at about eight weeks , but both can copulate as early as five weeks . if the infants live in high temperatured area from birth , they will become less - haired . [ 41 ]", "although house mice can be either monogamous or polygamous , they are most commonly polygamous . they generally show characteristics of mate - defense polygyny in that males are highly territorial and protective of their mates , while females are less agonistic . [ 42 ] the communal nursing groups that result from these behaviors lead to lower numbers of infanticide since more females are able to protect greater numbers of offspring . [ 43 ]", "the polygamous behavior of female house mice promotes sperm competition , which affects both male and female evolutionary fitness . [ 45 ] females who mate with multiple males tend to produce both pups in greater numbers , [ 45 ] and with higher survival rates , [ 46 ] increasing female fitness . sperm competition that arises from polygamy favors males with faster , more motile sperm in higher numbers , increasing male fitness . [ 45 ] the competitive aspect of insemination increases the frequency of polyandrous events and fertilizations . polyandry has evolved to increase reproductive success . [ 47 ] male mating behavior is also affected in response to the practice of polygamous behavior . compared to monogamous house mice , polygamous house mice mate for longer periods of time . [ 48 ] this behaviour allows for an increase in both the transfer of sperm and paternity success , which in turn increases male fitness . [ 48 ]", "as opposed to polygamy , polyandrous behavior in females is the act of breeding with several males in the same season . [ 49 ] variation in number of males that females mate with occurs among a population . polyandrous behavior is a common mating pattern in species of mus musculus musculus as well as the relative mus musculus domesticus . [ 49 ]", "polyandry occurs in 30 % of all wild populations of house mice . [ 50 ] litters from multiple sires tend to be more genetically diverse than litters of single sires . [ 49 ] multiple paternity is also more common in larger populations than smaller populations , because there is a larger number of mates and more diverse mates to choose from . [ 50 ] within a population , males and females show different levels of multiple mating . females show bias toward unrelated males rather than related males during sexual selection , resulting in more genetically diverse offspring and a reduction of inbreeding depression . [ 51 ] inbreeding depression increases genetic incompatibilities , levels of homozygosity , and the chance of deleterious recessive alleles . [ 51 ] polyandry has been shown to increase offspring survival compared to monandry .", "the fitness of females increases in polyandrous lines due to more genetic diversity and greater litter size . [ 45 ]", "due to polyandry , males can be confused by the identity of new offspring . [ 52 ] multiple mating by females and paternity confusion can decrease rates of infanticide .

edged , these fossils have traditionally been classified as isurus hastalis . miocene deposits , about 23 million years old , in italy have yielded very similar teeth , but with faint serrations near the tip of the blade . these teeth were classified as isurus escheri , and were regarded as ' proof ' that the modern saw -

assigned to the genus cosmopolitodus . this view has also been adopted by paleontologist david ward and seems to be gaining acceptance in at least some paleontological and fossil collecting circles .", "isurus oxyrinchus teeth are very similar to the fossil i . desori teeth . many believe it should be assigned to the same species .", "shortfin mako shark , isurus oxyrinchus , off catalina island , california , eastern pacific ocean . credit : jidanchaomian via cc by -

toothed and is actually older than that of isurus . according to this scenario , the carcharodon lineage can be traced back to the smooth - toothed isurolamna inflata , which lived about 65 to 55 million years ago . i . inflata gave rise to macrorhizodus praecursor , which lived about 55 million years ago and had smooth edged but broader teeth than its ancestor . praecursor gave rise to cosmopolitodus hastalis , which lived about 35 million years ago and developed even braoder teeth . hastalis , in turn , gave rise to cosmopolitodus escheri , which lived about 25 to 20 million years ago and had weak serrations on its teeth . and finally , escheri gave rise to the modern white shark , carcharodon carcharias , which appeared some 11 million years ago and had the coarsely serrated teeth for which the genus is renowned today . therefore , carcharodon and isurus both descended from isurolamna inflata and many smooth -

l . pedler 2007 , pers . comm . ) . it forages throughout the day during the breeding season , but it usually rests quietly throughout the middle of the day in the non - breeding period . recommended methods the recommended method for detecting the presence of the glossy black - cockatoo ( kangaroo island ) within a particular location is to perform area searches or transect surveys , on foot , through stands of drooping sheoak , in search of signs of recent foraging . these signs consist of shredded seed cones that are coloured pale green to creamy white ( shredded in the previous 24 hours ) , cream to light orange ( shredded in the previous few days ) , bright orange ( shredded in the previous week ) or orange - brown ( shredded in the previous six weeks or so ) ; shredded cones that are brown or grey in colour may be up to one year old ( p . mooney 2007 , pers . comm . ; l . pedler 2007 , pers . comm . ) .", "the cockatoo ' s habitat probably began disappearing way back when the railway was introduced to the area in the 1860s and declined further as the town grew , said pat hall , a technical officer of science at nationals parks and wildlife service .", "the glossy black - cockatoo ( kangaroo island ) population has been subject to annual monitoring since 1995 . the first annual survey , in 1995 , observed a minimum of 158 birds and , from this count , the population size was estimated to consist of 195 birds . the population size has increased since 1995 ( burbidge & raines 2003 ; mooney & pedler 2005 ; pedler 1999 ; pedler & mooney 2004 , 2005 ) . the most recent survey for which data is available , in 2006 , observed a minimum of 293 birds . from this count , the population size was estimated at 310 to 330 birds ( l . pedler 2007 , pers . comm ) .", "competition for tree hollows with other species including brushtail possums , yellow - tailed black - cockatoos , galahs , little corellas , sulphur - crested cockatoos , and introduced honey bees ( apis mellifera ) .", "the glossy black - cockatoo ' s populations have declined , with local extinctions and range contractions . this is because of land clearing practices that have removed food sources and nesting sites . more frequent and intense fires in south - eastern australia since european settlement have also reduced suitable habitat . both grazing , which suppresses casuarina regeneration , and forestry practices that remove casuarina have also contributed to declines . chicks and eggs have been collected for the aviculture industry and , on kangaroo island , chicks and eggs may be eaten by possums . the subspecies c . l . erebus of eastern australia is considered rare , while the kangaroo island subspecies , c . l . halmaturinus is endangered .", "habitat loss could also occur as a result of grazing . grazing by native and introduced animals ( including wallabies , kangaroos , possums , goats , deer and , on the fleurieu peninsula , rabbits and hares ) and domestic stock can inhibit the natural regeneration of glossy black - cockatoo ( kangaroo island ) habitats ( p . mooney 2007 , pers . comm . ; mooney & pedler 2005 ; pepper 1997 ) . the impact of grazing is unknown but , given that about 60 % of foraging habitat and 50 % of nesting habitat occurs on private land , it is possible that large areas of habitat could potentially be subject to some form of grazing ( mooney & pedler 2005 ) .", "surrounded by 300 - 400 stilts , avocets and several species of ducks a very bright [ male ? ] black - tailed godwit . rufous head , neck and upper chest . strong black bars on flank , not complete to belly . back and wings strongly ' spangled \" black and chestnut . wide white eye - brow only to top of eye . beak , leg colour and tail etc normal . second bird with it in complete non - breeding plumage pale grey above paler under . beak , tail and eye - brow as with first bird . must be over wintering . about 300 metres upstream of mouth .", "although sighted regularly by us in these areas in the years 2003 - 2006 , in general glossy black - cockatoos are quite rare . they live in small groups ;

p . mooney 2007 , pers . comm . ) . over the same period of time , breeding has been recorded at all locations except for baudin conservation park and cape torrens wilderness protection area , and hence annual monitoring of nests and ongoing protection of nests and maintenance of artificial hollows is conducted at these locations . artificial hollows have been erected in lathami conservation park , parndana conservation park , western river wilderness protection area and ravine des casoars wilderness protection area . feeding habitat of the glossy black - cockatoo ( kangaroo island ) has been re - vegetated in baudin conservation park and lathami conservation park ( p . mooney 2007 , pers . comm . ) . management activities are also undertaken at sites located outside of the reserve system . in many instances , the individual birds and flocks that use the reserves listed above also forage and breed in habitat near or adjacent to the reserves ( p . mooney 2007 , pers . comm . ; l . pedler 2007 , pers . comm . ) . it is estimated that 45 % of suitable nesting habitat ( much of which is not currently used by the birds ) , and 31 % of drooping sheoak foraging habitat , occurs within gazetted reserves managed by the south australian department for environment and heritage ( mooney & pedler 2005 ) .", "red - tailed black - cockatoos are described as dispersive , meaning that they move away from where they were born to where they breed and that they may breed in separate locations . they also appear to move around in response to seasonal food availability .", "there are five subspecies of red - tailed black - cockatoo occurring in eight discrete populations . combining these , this species is found from the pilbara and kimberleys in western australia in a broad swath through the top end , much of queensland through to the region of the new south wales border . it is then found from there down along the darling river . the species also occurs in three geographically separate regions in each of : south - west victoria / south - east south australia ; the south - west to west of western australia ; central australia in southern northern territory and northern south australia .", "through spring and early summer , the breeding season , red - tailed black - cockatoos are generally seen alone or as family parties of 2 to 3 birds . in autumn and winter , flocks of 100 to 250 birds can be seen in areas with a good food supply .", "previously reported sipo ( 1n ) present at high tide roost at point . also present were asian gull - billed tern ( 2 ) and single black - tailed godwit ( rare in westernport ) . good numbers of overwintering eastern curlew , bar - tailed godwit and red knot also recorded .", "glossy black - cockatoos , race \" lathami \" , are also infrequently seen by us once in the foothills of the nandewar range , e . g . at eulah creek , where they can sometimes be seen flying over . in the timeframe december 2014 to march 2015 , when it was particularly dry in one of their strongholds , the pilliga scrub , and when bushfires had destroyed part of the native vegetation , increased numbers were seen by us flying over eulah creek towards the hills and large contiguous forests of the great dividing range . in the timeframe december 2017 to january 2018 we have also seen them twice at yarrie lake , on the northern edge of the pilliga scrub .", "the south - eastern red - tailed black - cockatoo only occurs in the south - east of south australia and south - west victoria . their total range covers an area 18 , 000km 2 from nelson to little desert national park in south west victoria and from keith to mount gambier in the south east of south australia ( see range map below ) . red - tails rely on stringybark , buloke and gum woodland habitats and scattered trees throughout the range for feeding and nesting . they are highly nomadic , moving throughout their range in response to food availability . although red - tails are widespread across the range , some of the more likely areas or hotspots for finding birds are around edenhope , casterton , naracoorte , frances , nelson ( lower glenelg national park ) and lucindale .", "the orange - bellied parrot national recovery team has asked that we do not publish any reports of orange - bellied parrots . please send any sightings at the western treatment plant , werribee and the spit wildlife reserve to obp . release @ urltoken and for all other areas to chris purnell at chris . purnell @ birdlife . org . au . all regent honeyeater reports should be forwarded as soon as possible to dean ingwersen ( dean . ingwersen @ urltoken or freecall 1800 621 056 ) , including any colour leg band details . it is requested that details of swift parrot sightings are forwarded to chris timewell ( woodlandbirds @ birdlife . org . au ) . also , please note that birdline victoria won\u2019t be publishing individual reports of yellow - tailed black - cockatoo in the greater melbourne area .", "the single nestling is brooded and fed by the female . for the first three weeks after hatching , the male provides food to the brooding female , who in turn feeds the nestling . at approximately three weeks after hatching , the female departs the nest to forage during the day with the male . the nestling remains in the nest for a period of 84\u009696 days and , after leaving the nest , is fed by both parents ( garnett et al . 1999 ;

population variation in the occurrence of this behavioral change . previous studies on uninfected isopods have shown that glycogen content is a predictor of male mating behavior and we examined whether the intra - population variation in the mating behavior of infected male c . intermedius could be explained by this relationship . a field - based behavioral experiment was used to quantify intra - population variation in male mating behavior , which showed that 50 % of infected males were responsive to females and 50 % were not responsive . biochemical analysis of responsive and non - responsive males revealed that glycogen content was a predictor of the mating behavior for uninfected males but was not a predictor of mating behavior for infected males . for infected males , parasite intensity was a predictor of mating behavior . males that contained more a . dirus parasites were less likely to undergo modification of mating behavior . we propose that the intra - population variation in the mating behavior of infected c . intermedius identified in nature was not mediated by host condition .", "the acanthocephalan parasite acanthocephalus dirus induces a colour change in the intermediate host , the aquatic isopod caecidotea intermedius , which increases transmission to definitive hosts ( creek chub , sunfish ) . we examined the potential for conflict to occur between infective ( cystacanth ) and non - infective ( acanthor , acanthella ) stages of a . dirus over the level of colour modification that should be induced when these stages share a host . using a field survey , we showed that host sharing by infective and non - infective stages was relatively common and that infective and non - infective stages differed in their effects on colour modification . non - infective stages induced a colour change over 40 % of the body , whereas infective stages induced a colour change over 80 % . thus , conflict could occur between stages over the level of modification that should be induced . we then showed that mixed - stage infections induced a colour change in the host that was consistent with the level of modification induced by the infective stage . we discuss the potential significance of these results to patterns of host modification and their effects on stage - related survival in nature .", "this is the new host for the parasite a . dirus in t . albacares . on the basis of histological and histochemical findings , the lesions were highly damaged due to the parasitic infestation . the high density of the parasite and severe penetration of the proboscis into the intestinal tissues are the main reason for the pathogenicity in the host .", "one reason could be that a . dirus infects creek chub - which , as its name indicates - lives in flowing creeks . the chub acquire the worm through eating infected isopods in the stream ( the picture shows the light - coloured infected isopod on the right , and the darker uninfected individual on the left ) , which become infected when they ingest worm eggs resting on the creek bed . acanthocephalan eggs tend to float - so if the eggs are simply expelled into the environment , they would get washed away downstream and deposited where the isopods do not occur . whereas with a . dirus , the worm ' s own body can act like a weight belt which would carry the eggs down to the sediment layer , so by the time the worm herself decays , the eggs are already in the sediment where isopods can pick them up .", "furthermore , laboratory tests showed that isopods like to eat egg - filled female worms as much as their usual food - leaf litter - and the worm body itself actually enhances the infection success of the eggs . researchers found that when exposed to fresh eggs alone , fewer than one in four isopods became infected , whereas when exposed to gravid females , over 80 % became infected ( natural infection comes somewhere in between those at about 60 % ) . by making the ultimate maternal sacrifice , a . dirus gives her offspring the best possible start in life .", "t . albacares were severely infested with a . dirus , the group of acanthocephala attached to the posterior region of the intestine . the adult worm proboscis was cylindrical and the length and width ranging between 2 . 7\u20136 . 4 mm and 0 . 8\u20131 . 3 mm , respectively . histopathologically , the infested intestinal mucosal epithelium , stratum granulosum , lamina propria , muscular and serosa layers were highly degraded . the lesions were infiltrating with basophil -

backed horse to one with a short back , in an attempt to produce a foal with a back of desirable length . however , we know that over 90 % of all mammalian traits are controlled by multiple genes , while simple mendelian genetics apply to less than 10 % . the length of a horse\u0092s back is controlled by a number of factors . these include the length of the vertebral bones themselves and the width and compressibility of the inter - vertebral discs . each of these factors , in turn , is controlled by several genes , producing the possibility of a large variation in back length . therefore , a long - backed horse might have long vertebrae and \u0091normal\u0092 disc width , while a short -

scale projects to bring the woylie back into the rangelands should be applauded for their economic sense .", "the critically endangered brush - tailed bettong is reliant on the monitoring and reduction of fox populations as well as careful habitat management for its survival ( 7 ) . research is currently underway to identify possible new translocation sites ( 1 ) , and an investigation is being carried out by the woylie conservation research project to discover why all large brush -

kangaroos has a gestation period just shorter than the oestrous cycle and thus has a post - partum oestrus with mating taking place very soon after the current pouch young vacates the pouch permanently . however , if a male is not present ovulation does not occur and the female will not enter oestrus until introduced to a may . woylies show embryonic diapause and breed continuously regardless of season . pouch life is around 3 . 5 months and thus they are able to produce more than one young per year . males become sexually mature at around 13 months and females much earlier at 10 months . in captivity on a high quality diet , breeding may commence earlier and the maximal production of 3 young per year achieved but more usually two ."]}

( 2008 ) published the first molecular phylogeny of conoidea . even though ranks differed , most of the lineages defined by taylor et al . ( 1993 ) were also retrieved in this molecular approach . the new molecular phylogeny of puillandre et al . ( 2011 ) is based on a dataset of 102 conoidean genera ( 87 \u2018turrids\u2019 , 5 cones and 10 terebrids ) and sequences of three gene fragments ( coi , 12s rrna and 16s rrna ) . because of the high congruency between the classification based on anatomical characters and the molecular tree obtained , we are inclined to think that our understanding of the phylogeny of the conoidea has now reached a stable position , and that a new classification is warranted . the classification presented below ( fig . 1 b ) aims to transform the molecular phylogeny into an operational classification by : ( 1 ) presenting revised morphological diagnoses for the now redefined families of conoidea ; ( 2 ) allocating ( sometimes tentatively ) all recent genera recognized or used in current literature to the corresponding family .", "genus - group names have been allocated to the newly defined families based on the following critera : our aim was to provide an exhaustive list of conoidean genus - group names based on recent type species or reasonably recognized as recent in the literature . genera present exclusively in the fossil record are not included . in very few cases , obviously erroneous attribution of recent species to entirely fossil genera also excluded these genera from our listing . junior homonyms and nomina nuda are also not included because they are unavailable for nomenclatural purposes . when the status of a nominal genus is uncertain , we adopted a \u2018valid until synonymized\u2019 approach ; that is , a name is regarded valid ( irrespective of our opinion ) if it has not been synonymized in literature . the names of synonyms are placed after corresponding valid names ( the synonyms applied to the valid subgenus name are positioned after the subgenus name ) . all the genus and subgenus names are also listed in alphabetic order in appendix 1 .", "( 1 ) 224 genera were assigned to a family based on shell characters , and phenetic resemblance to those genera with radula and / or molecular characters available ; those are marked 1 .", "( 2 ) 103 genera were classified on the basis of radula morphology ( both our own and published data ) , and congruence between radula and molecular characters for those genera that were sequenced ; these are marked 2 .", "( 3 ) 98 genera were classified in a family on the basis of the molecular data ; these are marked 3 .", "( 4 ) 63 genera and subgenera do not fall easily into the morphological groups resulting from the preceding steps , but they have tentatively been assigned to a family as a working hypothesis ; these genera are preceded by a question mark .", "( 5 ) 173 subgenera and / or synonyms are also listed ; subgenera are in parentheses , synonyms in square brackets .", "to illustrate the range of radular types in the molecularly defined clades , the radulae were extracted as far as possible from the specimens used for the molecular analyses or from conspecific specimens ( after rehydration when soft parts had been dried ) , cleaned with diluted bleach , rinsed in distilled water , mounted on stubs , air dried , coated with gold - palladium , and investigated with a jeol jsm 840a scanning electron microscope . some of the previously photographed radulae ( examined by yuik and / or j . d . taylor ) were additionally illustrated .", "for radular descriptions we mostly followed the terminology accepted and discussed by kantor & taylor ( 2000 ) . in radular formulae , the parentheses indicate partial or complete fusion of lateral and rachidian teeth ( for more details , see kantor , 2006 ) .", "although the names conoidea and toxoglossa are used interchangeably in the taxonomic literature , we have avoided the name toxoglossa because ( i ) it is not typified and cannot be used for a family\u2013group name , and ( ii ) many of the included taxa do not have a toxoglossate radula . within the conoidea , ranking of the clades was determined by a conservative approach , thus retaining the names terebridae and conidae s . s . ( the latter including the cone snails profundiconus , californiconus , conasprella , conus and taranteconus ) in their accustomed usage at family rank . an alternative would have been to recognize only two families , conidae sensu taylor et al . ( 1993 ) and turridae ( including the turridae , terebridae , drilliidae and pseudomelatomidae ) , with the resulting inconvenience that conidae s . s . and terebridae , although monophyletic , would lose their traditional usage and the vast associated literature dealing with these names that largely ignores the taylor et al . ( 1993 ) and bouchet & rocroi ( 2005 ) classifications .", "fourteen clades of rank equivalent to conidae s . s . and terebridae are recognizable from the molecular phylogenetic tree ( puillandre et al . , 2011 ) . forty - three family\u2013group names within conoidea are nomenclaturally available ( appendix 2 ) , of which five are based on a genus with a fossiltype species ( andoniinae vera - pelaez , 2002 ; cryptoconinae cossmann , 1896 ; hemiconidae tucker & tenorio , 2009 ; johnwyattidae serna , 1979 ; siphopsinae le renard , 1995 ) . these five cannot be applied to a molecular clade and will not be used in our classification . names were applied to clades based on the position of their type genus in the tree . if more than one family\u2013group name was applicable , the valid name was determined by priority . if the type genus of a nominal family name was not sequenced , application of the name was determined by reference to the morphologically most similar genus used in the analysis .", "because the molecular taxon sampling is still too patchy for such levels , we have abstained from extending the classification below family level ( i . e . subfamilies , tribes ) , even when some molecular clades obviously match previously recognized \u2018subfamilies\u2019 ( e . g . californiconinae , oenopotinae , zemaciinae , zonulispirinae ) . they are all included in a family ( appendix 2 ) , without precluding their usefulness and potential taxonomic validity .", "each family ( except the conidae and terebridae , already extensively covered and illustrated in other recent works , e . g . r\u00f6ckel , korn & kohn , 1995 ; terryn , 2007 ; tucker & tenorio , 2009 ) is illustrated by one or several shells , radulae and protoconchs , covering the morphological variability of the group . as far as possible , specimens used for the molecular analyses were used for illustration . however , since a substantial part of the morphological variability was not covered by our dataset , shells and radulae of other specimens are also illustrated .", "diagnosis : shell medium - sized to large or very large , normally 20\u201350 mm , up to 170 mm high , conical or biconical , with narrow aperture and short siphonal canal . shell with considerable internal remodelling due to inner wall resorption . spiral sculpture usually developed , axial sculpture absent or in form of shoulder tuberculation . anal sinus on subsutural ramp , shallow to moderately deep . operculum present , small , with terminal nucleus . radula of marginal hypodermic teeth , generally harpoon - shaped , barbed at tip , often with complex inner structure of folds and serration , base small and swollen , tooth canal opening ( sub ) terminally , rarely laterally . subradular membrane vestigial . teeth can be attached to the membrane by long or very long flexible ligament . tooth wall forms several overlapping layers .", "remarks : in conidae and the other families that are included in this major clade ( family conidae sensu taylor et al . , 1993 ) , the radula consists only of marginal teeth that are usually enrolled with completely overlapping edges ( hypodermic ) . teeth at their formation in the radular sac are already enrolled and they are attached to the radular membrane only by their bases , sometimes through a long flexible ligament . in the \u2018turrids\u2019 with enrolled teeth , these are attached to the membrane along most of its length ( kantor & taylor , 2000 ) . a molecular phylogeny of the conidae is currently in preparation ( c . meyer , personal communication ) .", "diagnosis ( from tucker & tenorio , 2009 ) : \u201cradular tooth : anterior fold is usually present ;

offs among multiple management practices . we investigated the impact of pollination services on coffee production , considering variation in fertilization , irrigation , shade cover , and environmental variables such as rainfall ( which stimulates coffee flowering across all plantations ) , soil ph , and nitrogen availability . after accounting for management interventions , bee abundance improved coffee production ( number of berries harvested ) . some management interventions , such as irrigation , used once to trigger asynchronous flowering , dramatically increased bee abundance at coffee trees . others , such as the extent and type of tree cover , revealed interacting effects on pollination and , ultimately , crop production . the effects of management interventions , notably irrigation and addition of lime , had , however , far more substantial positive effects on coffee production than tree cover . these results suggest that pollination services matter , but managing the asynchrony of flowering was a more effective tool for securing good pollination than maintaining high shade tree densities as pollinator habitat . complex interactions across farm and landscape scales , including both management practices and environmental conditions , shape pollination outcomes . effective production systems therefore require the integrated consideration of management practices in the context of the surrounding habitat structure . this paper points toward a more strategic use of ecosystem services in agricultural systems , where ecosystem services are shaped by the coupling of management interventions and environmental variables .", "ecosystem services are widely used as an economic argument for the conservation of natural habitats , including forests ( 1 ) . one such ecosystem service , crop pollination by animals , is thought to benefit 75 % of the major crops , representing 35 % of the world crop production ( 2 ) . pollination services have received particular attention in view of the declines in honey bees , a major crop pollinator ( 3 ) . a current concern is that a continued loss of honey bees ( and perhaps other bees ) may undermine crop pollination services and hence crop production worldwide ( 4 ) .", "although insect pollinators have been shown to improve coffee crop productivity ( 5 ) , many studies have either limited the assessment of production to initial fruit set ( around 5 wk after pollination ) or overlooked the impact of environment and management system on production . assessment of fruit yield within a few weeks of flowering might be misleading as coffee has a 6 - to 10 - mo fruit maturation period . during this production cycle a range of management practices , including fertilization and pruning , are implemented that , together with environmental conditions , might play a major role in fruit development and early fruit loss . consequently , the early positive benefits of pollination for fruit set might have disappeared by fruit maturation and harvest ( 6 ) . in consequence , it is difficult to ascribe the degree to which pollination alone contributes to coffee production . at the same time , if pollinators do enhance initial fruit set ( as appears to be the case ) , then an improved understanding of management and environmental factors might allow pollination benefits to be retained through crop maturation . such information would facilitate the integration of pollination services within the management system , for instance through the provision of potential nesting sites and the management of alternative floral resources .", "a further consideration for coffee farmers is whether interventions that maximize pollination service benefits ( e . g . , shade management ) incur trade - offs with other services or management priorities . it is thus conceivable that an intervention that increases pollination benefits might diminish production by , for example , reducing light or resource acquisition . a complete study of the potential benefits of pollination services to coffee production requires a more comprehensive evaluation of production at the time of fruit harvest , as well as an evaluation of the various trade - offs inherent to different management practices . ultimately , trade - offs should be presented in crop production or monetary terms , but here we seek to understand their ecological expression .", "in this study , we investigated the potential role of pollinators in promoting coffee production in the context of soil and tree management practices as well as environmental variables such as soil fertility , shade cover , and rainfall .", "agroforests in kodagu , south india , flowered between february 10 and march 20 , 2008 , with each agroforest flowering on a single day within this period . twenty -

mean age , fecundity , and condition factor were increased ; age distribution was shifted to older ; growth rate was increased / or not changed ; and the egg size and population size were decreased compared with reference site ( gs 26 . 6 ) . these observed responses of the pale chub population matched well with the characteristics expected from a fish population experiencing chronic recruitment failure , except for the decreased egg size due to the elevation in nutrients and pollutants by treated sewage discharge . the observed response pattern at the downstream sites might be caused by the deterioration of the spawning or nursery habitat , or by the contaminant - induced chronic spawning failures . thus , these results suggest that the effluent of the mwtp might impact on the fish population structure and health status of pale chub population .", "divergence times among the main lineages of z . platypus were estimated using a bayesian mcmc approach implemented in beast v . 1 . 7 . 5 based on a strict molecular clock ( drummond & rambaut , 2007 ) . the parameters were : substitution model , tn93 + g ; tree prior , coalescent : constant size ; normal distribution ; 10 million generations ; parameters logged every 1 000 ; burn - in value = 1 000 . the molecular clock of cyprinids was assumed to be 1 . 52 % site - 1 ma ( million years ) - 1 ( doadrio et al . , 2002 ) for cyt b .", "theory indicates that the anti - predation behavior of a fish species will depend on predation threats in a way that tends to improve the probability of surviving predation . pale chub ( zacco platypus ) , a small asiatic cyprinid , is widely distributed in both high - and low - predation reaches of the wujiang river . to test whether the anti - predator behavior of pale chub along the wujiang river varied in fish living in habitats under different levels of predation pressure , we measured spontaneous swimming activity , risk - taking behavior , utilization of shelter and boldness in pale chub collected from both high - and low - predation habitats in the wujiang river . the fish from high - predation populations showed less spontaneous swimming activity and risk - taking behavior compared with those of the fish from low - predation populations . however , neither utilization of shelter nor boldness exhibited any significant differences between high - and low - predation populations . one reason for this result may be that in their daily lives , the pale chub in the high - predation population primarily respond to the presence of predators by decreasing spontaneous swimming activity and risk - taking behaviors when threatened rather than increasing utilization of shelters and showing less bold behavior . the lack of an increase in shelter utilization and the lack of a decrease in boldness in response to predation pressure may be a compromise to allow foraging and growth .", "fish inhabit environments that vary greatly in terms of predation intensity , and these predation regimes are generally expected to be a major driver of divergent natural selection . to test whether there is predator - driven intra - species variation in the locomotion , metabolism and water velocity preference of pale chub ( zacco platypus ) along a river , we measured unsteady and steady swimming and water velocity preference among fish collected from both high - and low - predation habitats in the wujiang river . we also measured the routine metabolic rate ( rmr ) , maximum metabolic rate ( mmr ) and cost of transport ( cot ) and calculated the optimal swimming speed ( u opt ) . the fish from the high - predation populations showed a shorter response latency , elevated routine metabolism , lower swimming efficiency at low swimming speed , and lower water velocity preference compared with those from the low - predation populations . neither of the kinematic parameters fast - start and critical swimming speed ( u crit ) showed a significant difference between the high - and low - predation populations . the fish from the high - predation populations may improve their predator avoidance capacity primarily through an elevated routine metabolism and shorter response latency to achieve advanced warning and escape , rather than an improved fast - start swimming speed or acceleration . thus , the cost of this strategy is an elevated rmr , and no trade - off between unsteady and steady swimming performance was observed in the pale chub population under various predation stresses . it was interesting to find that the high - predation fish showed an unexpected lower velocity preference , which might represent a compromise between predation avoidance , foraging and energy saving .", "although perdices et al .

( 2006 ) to show monophyly of air - gulping dipnoans .", "as can be seen , these comparisons yield a remarkably consistent picture : on every point , the endocast of rhinodipterus is more similar to the brain of neoceratodus than to the lepidosirenids . given that rhinodipterus is a stem lungfish , this strongly suggests that the similarities reflect retained primitive characters in neoceratodus , relative to a more derived morphology in lepidosirenids . comparison with other members of the lungfish stem group , and with the non - dipnoan sarcopterygians eusthenopteron , tungsenia and spodichthys , support this conclusion and add further information about character evolution in the early part of the lungfish stem lineage .", "in chirodipterus wildungensis ( figs . 4c , 5c ) , which comes from the latest frasnian [ 53 ] of bad wildungen , germany , and is thus the youngest of the fossil lungfish discussed here , the telencephalic cavity appears to be somewhat larger and deeper than that of rhinodipterus . the olfactory bulbs were pedunculate , though it is difficult to determine the exact length of the tracts . dorsally there is a prominent pineal recess . the labyrinth cavity of chirodipterus is similar to that of rhinodipterus except that the utricular cavity is slightly smaller ( figures 4 and 5 ) . supraotic cavities have not been described .", "our work represents the first virtual endocast of any lungfish . despite being late devonian in age , rhinodipterus kimberleyensis is one of the most derived near - complete fossil lungfish braincases known . not surprisingly , of all the known stem lungfish endocasts , rhinodipterus resembles the similarly - aged chirodipterus wildungesis and griphognathus whitei most closely [ 21 ] , [ 52 ] . with respect to extant taxa , the endocast of rhinodipterus consistently resembles the brain of neoceratodus more than the lepidosirenids , suggesting neoceratodus has retained more primitive characters than the other extant lungfish taxa . the stark difference in morphology between the australian lungfish and the lepidosirenids is again noted . the early evolution of the lungfish stem group is characterized by expansion of the ventral part of the telencephalon , possibly related to evolution of an enhanced sense of smell , and slightly later , expansion of the utricular recess . undoubtedly these changes in labyrinth proportions relate to increased sensitivity for some sensory input , whether it be acceleration , gravitational or auditory , or a combination of all three .", "the distinct \u2018stepped\u2019 shape of the ceratohyal ( indicated by the ventral notch ) in rhinodipterus ( figure 1 c ) is more similar to neoceratodus ( g\u00fcnther 1871 ) than other devonian genera . the strong posterior margin of this bone indicates a robust connection of the sternohyoideus muscle to the pectoral girdle . the large lateral crest on this bone provides a larger area for interhyoideus muscle attachment , and these features indicate highly controlled mobility of the hyoid arch . as neoceratodus uses its ceratohyals to push air from the branchial chambers into the lung when breathing ( den blaauwen et al . 2005 ) , we suggest that rhinodipterus also had increased capacity for this action when compared with other marine dipnoans .", "the form of the sacculolagenar pouch in rhinodipterus is also worth mentioning . most extant fish and amphibians possess separate saccular and lagenar maculae , however modern lungfish are unusual in this respect in having just one [ 65 ] . primitive osteichthyans , including the earliest lungfish and tetrapods , also have a common sacculolagenar chamber as opposed to the large , separate lagena outgrowth seen in modern tetrapods [ 58 ] and actinopterygians [ 47 ] . although rhinodipterus maintains a common sacculolagenar pouch , its ventral margin shows a distinct ventral notch ( figs . 4f , 5d ) . this is particularly unusual as none of the other stem lungfish with labyrinth morphology known appear to do so , nor do the extant taxa .", "the presence of the large articulations for cranial ribs , an elongate parasphenoid ( figure 1 a ) and a mobile ceratohyal and pectoral girdle in rhinodipterus indicate air - gulping behaviour . cranial ribs anchor the pectoral girdle during air - gulping in extant forms ( figure 1 d ) and are a key feature in all air - breathing forms ( long 1993 ) .", "here we present an investigation by x - ray computed tomography ( \u00b5ct ) of the braincase and cranial cavity of rhinodipterus kimberleyensis [ 30 ] , [ 31 ] , a recently described stem - group dipnoan from the late devonian gogo formation in northern western australia . the gogo formation is a lagerst\u00e4tte known for its perfect 3d preservation and high diversity of taxa [ 32 ] , [ 33 ] . rhinodipterus is one of the most crownward stem dipnoans with a near -

devonian lungfish are known only from dermal bones and teeth , and none preserves a complete three - dimensional braincase .", "holodipterus gogoensis , also from the gogo formation , shows the shape of the braincase particularly well in one weathered specimen ( anu 49102 ) [ 24 ] . the authors have identified numerous nerve canals and approximate endocranial proportions . holodipterus shows two short , robust , and broadly diverging olfactory canals ( [ 24 ] fig . 6b ) , contrasting with the narrower and more elongate canals in rhinodipterus . the space for the telencephalon is relatively short and does not allow for any considerable ventral expansion . like griphognathus , holodipterus also exhibits a large , anterodorsally directed pineal recess ( [ 24 ] fig . 6b ) . the labyrinth region more closely resembles chirodipterus wildungensis ( fig . 4c ) with space for a high superior sinus but lacking a distinctively enlarged utriculus , such as that in rhinodipterus .", "when the cranial cavity of rhinodipterus is compared with the brain morphology of the extant lungfish ( figure 1 ) , substantial differences in telencephalic morphology immediately become apparent . all the extant genera have large telencephalic lobes : in protopterus and lepidosiren they are oblong [ 12 ] , [ 16 ] , [ 18 ] , whereas in neoceratodus they are rounder , and very deep ventrally [ 14 ] . the olfactory bulbs are sessile in the lepidosirenids but separated from the telencephalon by short olfactory tracts in neoceratodus ; in all three genera the olfactory bulbs ( or tracts ) attach anterodorsally on the telencephalon . in rhinodipterus the telencephalic lobes must have been much smaller , though the predominantly ventral expansion of the telencephalic cavity suggests a shape somewhat like the brain in neoceratodus , and the olfactory tracts must have been long .", "the labyrinth region of modern lungfish are distinguished from those of other gnathostomes by possession of an enlarged utriculus [ 51 ] , [ 52 ] . in the lepidosirenids this is enormous , as big as or bigger than the ( undifferentiated ) sacculolagena , whereas neoceratodus shows a less extreme morphology with a somewhat smaller utriculus ( figure 4 ) . rhinodipterus has a labyrinth cavity resembling that of neoceratodus , except that its utricular cavity is slightly smaller and does not extend so far posteriorly ( figure 4f , g ) . the sinus superior is tall and narrow , as in all modern lungfish . the only surprising feature of the ear of rhinodipterus is the shallow notch , situated approximately between the saccular and lagenar portions , which is not matched either by modern lungfish or by other fossil stem lungfish ( see below ) .", "figure 1 shows the characteristic elongated parasphenoid and articulations for cranial ribs of rhinodipterus . the lengthening of the parasphenoid extending posterior to the neurocranium significantly enlarges the buccal cavity , would have enabled the animal to hold a large air bubble . the slot between the tooth plates for a tongue pad ( figure 1 b ) acts as a stop - valve when air is being forced into the lungs ( campbell & barwick 1988 ) .", "it is popularly believed that vertebrate air - gulping originated in a tropical lowland setting ( thomson 1969 ) . most fossil lungfish inferred to be air - gulpers have all been from freshwater deposits . the exceptions are the escuminac bay fauna , and partial remains of rhinodipterus from marginal marine environments from the late devonian of europe ( gross 1956 ; \u00f8rvig 1961 ; cloutier 1996 ) . usually , marine dipnoi lack the morphological features that would indicate that they were air - breathers ( den blaauwen et al . 2005 ) , and no evidence of cranial ribs in the common late devonian marine gogo fauna ( holodipterus , chirodipterus , griphognathus ) ( miles 1977 ) . however , cranial rib articulations and other features suggesting air - gulping behaviour have been found in a new species of rhinodipterus recently discovered from the shallow marine reef environment of the gogo formation , western australia .", "a new species of rhinodipterus from the gogo formation of western australia is known from a single incomplete specimen ( wam 09 . 6 . 149 ) and will be described in detail in a separate paper ( clement in preparation ) . the specimen was prepared by one of us ( j . l . ) using weak acetic acid ( 7\u201310 % ) , fortified by mowital b30 consolidant , and coated in a sublimate of ammonium chloride for photography .", "the pineal and parapineal organs primitively reached close to the skull roof , though there may not have been a pineal foramen ( a foramen is present in dipnorhynchus and powichthys , but absent in all other members of the lungfish total group ) . this condition is characteristic of all known stem group members ( though unknown in rhinodipterus because of specimen damage ) ; the reduced size and height of the pineal - parapineal complex in extant lungfish is derived ( as recognised by stensi\u00f6 1963 [ 50 ] ) . lepidosirenids are more derived than neoceratodus in this regard .", "figures 2 and 3 show a virtual endocast of the neurocranial cavity of rhinodipterus kimberleyensis . it measures approximately 45 mm in length , and 20 mm at the widest point across the horizontal semicircular canals . the neurocranium is incomplete anteriorly ( snout tip missing ) , and damaged dorsally in the orbito - temporal region [ 31 ] , but otherwise it is complete and uncompressed with many smaller canals for cranial nerves or blood vessels identifiable . the posterior portion of the neural cavity corresponding to the myelencephalic region or hindbrain ( including the labyrinth region ) is particularly well preserved .", "together , these patterns build up a picture of rather modest , directional change during the early evolution of lungfish , centered principally on ventral telencephalic expansion and enlargement of the utriculus . this was a prolonged process , as shown by the substantial differences between even the most derived devonian stem group members such as rhinodipterus , and the extant lungfish . stensi\u00f6 ' s ( 1963 : p . 82 [ 50 ] ) assertion , based on chirodipterus wildungensis , that the extant \u2018dipnoan brain had evolved prior to the beginning of the devonian and that since that time it has remained practically unchanged\u2019 is incorrect .", "a , youngolepis praecursor ( from chang [ 25 ] , fig . 19 ) ; b , dipnorhynchus sussmilchi ( from campbell and barwick [ 22 ] , fig . 25 ) ; c , \u2018 chirodipterus\u2019 australis ( from miles [ 52 ] , fig . 48 ) ; d , chirodipterus wildungensis ( from s\u00e4ve -

metencephalic cavity suggests the presence of quite large auricles extending forward on either side of a raised middle region of the brain , as in neoceratodus or latimeria . the raised middle region would have comprised the optic tectum and cerebellum , but unfortunately nothing can be said about their morphology and relative proportions beyond the fact that they were narrow in dorsal view .", "the distribution of cranial ribs is known from the middle devonian to recent lungfish . recorded from howidipterus and barwickia from a middle devonian lacustrine site in australia ( long 1992 ) , they are also present in later taxa such as sagenodus ( schultze & chorn 1997 ) and gnathorhiza ( berman 1976 ) . like the extant taxa , these fishes inhabited freshwater systems exposed to seasonal drying or anoxia , possibly caused by rotting vegetation . fleurantia and scaumenacia from the marginal marine late devonian deposits of quebec also possess cranial ribs ( cloutier 1996 ) , their presence in dipterus from the fluvial old red sandstone of scotland is not confirmed ( ahlberg & trewin 1995 ) . schultze ( 1975 ) was first to record the presence of cranial ribs in rhinodipterus .", "the evolution of labyrinth morphology over time begs an obvious question : how does it relate to function and behaviour ? the vestibular system in fish is involved in detecting body orientation in three dimensions , and respond to other cues such as gravity and acceleration . clement [ 31 ] previously discussed semicircular morphology and its bearing on locomotive behaviour . the similarity between the labyrinth region of neoceratodus and rhinodipterus ( fig . 4f , g ) drew her to conclude that some late devonian lungfish may have obtained similar functional abilities of the labyrinth as seen in extant taxa . narrower semicircular canals increase sensitivity and are associated with more rapid swimming or accurate maneuverability [ 66 ] . the loss of ampullae , narrowing and heightening ( effectively lengthening ) of the canals - a trend seen over time in lungfish - almost certainly enhances sensitivity .", "the semicircular canals have already been described in r . kimberleyensis [ 31 ] , the sacculolagena and utricular recess could not be modeled at that time and were thus neglected in that description . these regions are in fact ossified , well preserved and visible from the scan data , measuring close to 20 mm across their widest point ( fig . 2 ) . the sinus superior is laterally compressed and stands vertically ( fig . 3c ) . both the utricular recess and sacculolagena are large , rounded structures . the sacculolagena of rhinodipterus protrudes ventrally below the notochordal chamber , and there is a distinct ventral notch in the sacculolagena ( fig . 3c ) . an expansion in the anterior semicircular canal exists for the anterior ampulla , but the absence of a significant expansion for the posterior ampulla on the posterior semicircular canal [ 31 ] is confirmed .", "description : this is a fine example of the lungfish rhinodipterus . it has long been believed that air breathing developed in lungfish living in freshwater habitats , and then spread to marine taxa . specimens of this genus found in australia last year have raised doubts about this long - held hypothesis . the long mouth cavity of this fish coupled with the articulation of the cranial ribs are much like those of the extant freshwater lungfishes of today . while the invasion of freshwater habitats from the marine realm was previously thought to be the driving force in the development of air breathing , this new data has led some researchers to theorise that a drop in ambient oxygen levels was more likely . examples such as this are rarely available . the repaired crack detracts but little from the specimen offered here , the only one i have ever been able to secure .", "rhinodipterus provides the earliest unequivocal evidence of air - gulping adaptations in a marine lungfish . extant lungfish shed little light on the selective pressures of the earliest air - breathing dipnoans . despite the ambiguity of the environment in which air - gulping evolved , this observation raises some interesting phylogenetic implications . do all the air - gulpers belong to a single lineage or did air - gulping evolve more than once in the dipnoi ? such a complex suite of characters as those involved in aerial respiration most probably evolved only once , suggesting that these fishes comprise a monophyletic group ( figure 2 ) , based on the recent phylogenetic analysis of lungfishes by ahlberg et al . ( 2006 ) . we suggest that it was a combination of increased metabolic activity combined with low global oxygen levels that drove the evolution of air - gulping in lungfishes during the devonian period .", "the presence of rhinodipterus in marine conditions might indicate that these environments were oxygen stressed . many of the exceptionally preserved specimens from gogo show asymmetry ( e . g . variable shape and number of dermal skull bones ) with high levels of variability often present within the same individual ( long & trinajstic in press ) . increasing asymmetry has been shown to occur in animals in stressed habitats ( parsons 1992 ) . the superb state of preservation of the gogo fossils also indicates quick burial and low oxygen levels . while marine conditions were generally better oxygenated than many freshwater environments , there was still sufficient hypoxia in some marine environments to select for air - gulping ( playford & wallace 2001 ) . a large spiracular notch suggests accessory air intake by comparison with extant forms like polypterus . the tetrapodomorph fish gogonasus shows large spiracular openings on top of the skull ( long et al . 2006 ) , indicating that some other gogo fishes may also have been adapting to hypoxic conditions .", "a , youngolepis praecursor ( from chang [ 25 ] , fig . 19 ) ; b , dipnorhynchus sussmilchi ( from campbell and barwick [ 22 ] , fig . 25 ) ; c , chirodipterus wildungensis ( from s\u00e4ve -

rays or other types of radiation that penetrate the specimen [ 37 ] \u2013 [ 42 ] . while brains themselves are only very rarely preserved [ 43 ] , the study of cranial endocasts as a proxy for brain morphology [ 44 ] is a thriving field . of course , one must take care when interpreting endocasts , especially those of fishes where the brain can incompletely fill the neurocranial cavity [ 14 ] , [ 43 ] . nevertheless , endocasts of exquisitely preserved fossils can provide much information about the relative sizes of different regions of the brain , and thus provide a basis for tentative inferences about the sensory and motor capabilities of the animal [ 45 ] . endocasts are also highly character rich , highlighting an underutilized source of anatomical traits for comparative morphology and cladistic analysis . the cranial endocast of rhinodipterus presented here is the first near - complete cranial cavity of a stem lungfish to be imaged tomographically . it demonstrates both the utility of the technique and the high quality of the anatomical data obtainable from gogo formation material .", "recent discoveries of tetrapod trackways in 395 myr old tidal zone deposits of poland ( nied\u017awiedzki et al . 2010 nature 463 , 43\u201348 ( doi : 10 . 1038 / nature . 08623 ) ) indicate that vertebrates had already ventured out of the water and might already have developed some air - breathing capacity by the middle devonian . air - breathing in lungfishes is not considered to be a shared specialization with tetrapods , but evolved independently . air - breathing in lungfishes has been postulated as starting in middle devonian times ( ca 385 ma ) in freshwater habitats , based on a set of skeletal characters involved in air - breathing in extant lungfishes . new discoveries described herein of the lungfish rhinodipterus from marine limestones of australia identifies the node in dipnoan phylogeny where air - breathing begins , and confirms that lungfishes living in marine habitats had also developed specializations to breathe air by the start of the late devonian ( ca 375 ma ) . while invasion of freshwater habitats from the marine realm was previously suggested to be the prime cause of aerial respiration developing in lungfishes , we believe that global decline in oxygen levels during the middle devonian combined with higher metabolic costs is a more likely driver of air - breathing ability , which developed in both marine and freshwater lungfishes and tetrapodomorph fishes such as gogonasus .", "dipnoans , or lungfish , are an ancient lineage of osteichthyan fish that first appeared in the early devonian ( chang & yu 1984 ) . today they are represented by three genera , all of which respire bimodally to some extent ( graham 1997 ) . all exist in freshwater environments exposed to seasonal drying or anoxic conditions . lungfish take in air by gulping a bubble in the mouth , thus a large buccal cavity is an intrinsic feature of all modern air - breathing species .", "the gogo formation is an early to mid - frasnian shallow marine inter - reef shale deposit within a large reef complex in the canning basin , western australia ( playford 1980 ) . gogo has yielded an incredibly diverse fish fauna with over 50 species described so far , more than 10 of which are dipnoans .", "air - gulping specializations first appeared within the dipnoi during the middle devonian ( figure 2 ) , a time of maximum low global oxygen levels ( berner 2006 ) . air - gulping is thought to have evolved to supplement conventional aquatic respiration during this time of low oxygen ( thomson 1969 ) . their adaptations have also been interpreted as for buoyancy control ( graham 1997 ) , to allow the expulsion of excessive carbon dioxide ( thomson 1969 ) , or to supply the heart with an additional source of oxygen ( farmer 1999 ) . however , in many extant fishes including neoceratodus , activity is a stronger stimulus for air breathing than aquatic hypoxia ( johansen et al . 1967 ) . the question remains as to whether such adaptations were environmentally or metabolically induced .", "marine waters are usually better oxygenated than most freshwater environments because of increased wind - driven mixing and tidal flushing ( graham 1997 ) . this trend contributed to the belief that air - gulping must have evolved in hypoxic or anoxic freshwater conditions . however , while hypoxia in marine environments is generally not as extreme , widespread or prolonged as in freshwater habitats , it does still exist . an expansion of hypoxic waters across continental shelves occurred during the warm climate of the palaeozoic ( berry et al . 1989 ) , with hypoxic conditions common in shallow marine and estuarine areas . despite this , few workers considered that aerial respiration could have evolved in marine waters .", "ecological radiations of fishes in the devonian are likely to have been associated with increased metabolic costs for greater mobility , and more intensive competition and predation pressures ( graham 1997 ) . the ability to extract additional oxygen could have afforded air - gulping lungfishes the selective advantage of higher rates of metabolic activity , and does not confine their evolution to specific ecological conditions .", "we thank k . campbell for useful discussion , g . young for comments on the manuscript , and a . warren who discovered the specimen . this work was funded by arc discovery grant dp0772138 .", "structure and phylogenetic significance of diabolichthys speratus gen . et sp . nov . , a new dipnoan -

metencephalic region of the cranial cavity ; its anterior end lies just posterior to the hypophyseal fossa ( fig . 2b ) .", "obviously care must be taken when interpreting cranial cavity endocasts , especially as the shape of fish brains are generally not constrained as tightly as in other groups such as mammals and birds [ 48 ] , [ 49 ] . however , stensi\u00f6 [ 50 ] noted that the telencephalic and diencephalic regions in neoceratodus very closely reflected the shape of the cranial cavity . moreover , no part of the brain can be larger than the cavity that houses it , and this simple fact places strong constraints on the inferred brain morphology .", "chirodipterus australis from the gogo formation , which has been figured in the same manner as griphognathus whitei [ 52 ] shows some interesting differences from chirodipterus wildungensis . the overall shape of the cranial cavity is similar , again with a well - developed pineal recess , but the telencephalic cavity appears to be proportionately shorter and the olfactory canals are long ( [ 52 ] figs . 17 , 66 ) . in the labyrinth cavity , the utricular recess is much smaller than in the aforementioned taxa ( figure 4c , d ) and the supraotic cavity is small and simple in shape ( [ 52 ] fig . 47 ) . as previously recognized [ 54 ] , these and other features suggest that \u2018chirodipterus\u2019 australis is not closely related to c . wildungensis and should not be assigned to that genus , \u2018c . \u2019 australis is probably a less crownward member of the stem group than c . wildungensis .", "the stem - group members discussed above are all forms that from a traditional \u2018key character\u2019 perspective would be ( and have been ) deemed conventional \u2018fossil lungfish\u2019 : they possess major components of the modern lungfish character complex such as autostyly , absence of an intracranial joint , and a palatal bite . this contrasts with youngolepis , powichthys and porolepiforms - considered in the next section - which are assigned to the most basal part of the dipnoan stem group in the majority of recent analyses [ 28 ] , [ 55 ] but are not so obviously lungfish - like . the \u2018fossil lungfish\u2019 are all undisputed members of the stem group [ 22 ] , [ 55 ] , [ 56 ] and are always recovered crownward to youngolepis , powichthys and porolepiforms .", "the cranial cavity of youngolepis ( fig . 5a ) has been described in its entirety [ 25 ] , whereas in powichthys and porolepiforms ( represented here by glyptolepis groenlandica ) the part posterior to the diencephalon is unknown [ 26 ] , [ 27 ] . the telencephalic regions of all three taxa resemble each other , and differ from those of the \u2018fossil lungfish\u2019 as well as extant lungfish , on several points . the telencephalic cavity proper is very short , and the olfactory canals correspondingly long . furthermore , there is no ventral expansion of the telencephalic cavity ; insofar as there is a vertical expansion at all ( in powichthys and glyptolepis , but not in youngolepis ) it is dorsal to the exits of the olfactory canals . in eusthenopteron ( figure 5e ) , tungsenia and spodichthys , which are members of the tetrapod stem group and can thus be used as an outgroup in this context , the telencephalic cavity is longer than in youngolepis , powichthys and glyptolepis , but there is again no obvious ventral expansion [ 28 ] , [ 29 ] , [ 57 ] . all six genera have large anterodorsally directed pineal recesses . the otic region of youngolepis closely resembles that of eusthenopteron ( fig . 5a , e ) : the utricular recess is not enlarged , the sinus superior is low , and the supraotic cavity resembles that of griphognathus .", "primitively , the nasal cavities are separated from the telencephalic cavity by long olfactory canals . although the exact location of the olfactory bulb within the cranial cavities of the fossil forms is not strongly constrained ( see jarvik 1980 : fig . 89 , for one attempt at reconstruction [ 29 ] ) , it is clear that pedunculate olfactory bulbs are primitive for the lungfish total group . sessile bulbs are a derived feature of lepidosirenids .", "the telencephalon proper is primitively short . all extant lungfish have a longer telencephalon than the stem group members . lepidosirenids are more derived than neoceratodus in this regard .", "a ventral expansion of the telencephalon is primitively absent ( as shown by youngolepis , powichthys and glyptolepis ) , but begins to develop in conjunction with other aspects of lungfish morphology such as autostyly and a palatal bite . dipnorhynchus and all more crownward stem lungfish have such an expansion , but it is smaller than that of modern lungfish .", "an expanded utriculus develops gradually within the lungfish stem group , crownward of dipnorhynchus . the utriculi of extant lungfish are larger than those of any stem group members , but once again the lepidosirenids are much more derived than neoceratodus .", "the neuroanatomy of extant lungfish allow us to draw some tentative conclusions about the functional significance of the telencephalic expansion . in neoceratodus the part of the telencephalon that lies ventral to the plane of the olfactory tract consists entirely of the subpallium [ 14 ] . this region of the brain appears to deal substantially with olfaction , and we can probably conclude that the ventral expansion of the telencephalon during lungfish evolution related functionally to the development of an enhanced sense of smell [ 19 ] . conversely , the mesencephalon , which receives visual input , is proportionately small in both stem and crown lungfish , relative to most actinopterygians and chondrichthyans .", "there are surprisingly few studies on lobe - finned fish labyrinths , despite the likely insights they could provide into the transition of the early tetrapods [ 58 ] \u2013 [ 60 ] . retzius [ 51 ] was the first to describe them in lungfish , millot and anthony [ 61 ] for the coelacanth . later authors have expanded this work [ 62 ] \u2013 [ 65 ] . latimeria is considered to have an labyrinth region \u201cwith tetrapod affinities\u201d [ 62 ] , whereas the dipnoan labyrinth has been described as having a mix of chondrichthyan and lissamphibian features [ 64 ] .", "the functional significance of the striking utricular expansion in the dipnoi is surprisingly difficult to determine . early literature considered the utricule most important for postural control ( particularly horizontal movement ) , whereas the sacculolagena was considered to have a more auditory role [ 67 ] . however , more recent literature suggests that all otolith organs may have both auditory and vestibular roles [ 67 ] , often varying between different fish species [ 68 ] . although conclusions can ' t be drawn without experimental evidence , the changing proportions of labyrinth organs likely indicate an altered sensitivity of the vestibular system with respect to posture control , and may or may not have had an additional role in hearing .", "thanks are due to a number of people , firstly prof . john long who led the 2008 museum victoria / australian national university gogo expedition , funded by arc discovery grant dp 0772138 , during which dr . anne warren discovered the specimen , prof . john long also prepared the specimen . we are indebted to prof . t . senden of australian national university for scanning the specimen , and many thanks are also due to dr . sophie sanchez for assistance with three -

inducing saliva and an enzyme that dissolves tissue , then sucking out the innards . but unlike other bugs , it then fashions empty ant exoskeletons into protective outerwear . the insect can carry as many as 20 dead ants at a time , and binds them together with a sticky excretion into a cluster that may be larger than its own body .", "assassin bugs are insects of the family reduviidae and while reduviidae is a large family one species ( acanthaspis petax ) from malaysia does something extraordinary , when the assassin bug attaches its prey it injects it with a enzyme that liquefies the its innards so the bug can easily suck them out leaving the prey as an empty husk of an exoskeleton . the assassin then takes the empty shell and attacks it to its back using a sticky substance to keep them in place , the bug will pile these carcasses high making a mound of twenty or more exoskeletons . these trophies provide the bug several benefits as the mound of dead prey will make any predator think twice before attacking the assassin bug , and if a predator does attack the expendable mound of husks will serve as the first line of defense so the bug can escape .", "many animals in our world are known to collect things : cats can start collections of garden gloves , birds will steal beads and bottle caps for their nests , squirrels hoard stashes of nuts . most often , animals collect and store food . even if they\u2019re not hungry now , food is too good to pass up , so they will store it for later when they need it . those who don\u2019t collect food often run their collections for aesthetic reasons . birds build their nests with brightly colored objects to attract mates ; decorator crabs and sea urchins add bits of ocean debris to their camouflage . some insect larvae will spin bits of trash into their cocoons in order to strengthen them . or my personal favorite , the acanthaspis petax collects the carcasses of ants that it has eaten and stores them on its back , so it looks bigger , badder , and is less likely to be eaten by its own predators .", "html public \" -

like mouthparts , inject paralytic saliva and digestive enzymes and suck up the broken - down bodily fluids .", "most species discard the lifeless husks but the ant - snatcher secretes fine sticky threads from its back and there it sticks the remains of its prey . an earlier study suggested that the assassin bug\u2019s cadaverous backpack protected it from other predators and now , jackson and pollard have tested this theory by pitting the bugs against jumping spiders .", "jumping spiders are superb stalkers that use keen vision and accurate leaps to ambush prey . jackson and pollard let three species of jumping spiders loose upon either naked assassin bugs or those bearing ant - coats .", "they found that the spiders attacked the naked bugs about ten times more than the covered ones , even if the bugs in question were actually dead and preserved .", "the fact that the dead shielded bugs were just as uninviting as their living peers suggests that the disguise has nothing to do with a change in the bugs\u2019 behaviour or motion but everything to do with the ants they carried . clearly , when faced with a jumping spider , wearing a coat of dead ants can mean the difference between life or death to an assassin bug .", "why does it work ? unlike the decorator crabs , the assassin bugs weren\u2019t plastering themselves with local wildlife to blend in . certainly , the experiments were done in glass cages with no other ants around . instead , jackson and pollard suggests that the ants break up the bug\u2019s form so that instead of a characteristic shape that the spider can tag as \u2018prey\u2019 , it sees a jumbled mess that doesn\u2019t look like anything it has ever eaten before . it sees the bug , but doesn\u2019t register it as a meal .", "there is a final possibility though . ants are not easy prey \u2013 they have chemical weapons and strength in numbers and many small predators give them a wide berth . so the bugs\u2019 grisly defence may rely on using ants in particular and jackson and pollard are now putting this idea to the test .", "reference : jackson , r . r . , pollard , s . d .

breeding and release program to help maintain genetic diversity and to prevent further decline . we conducted our first experimental release for this species in 2005 . in 2006 , we began a captive breeding program at our facilities in sheridan , wyoming . by 2012 , 45 orange - breasted falcons had been produced in captivity and 30 released to the wild in belize .", "like many other falcon species , orange - breasted falcons are primarily bird hunters . they prey on small - to medium - sized birds , particularly doves , parakeets , and swifts . however , they also take large insects and , during dusk and pre - dawn hours , bats . they are aerial hunters , so they take all of their prey while in flight .", "we believe that the orange - breasted falcon\u2019s primary extinction drivers are habitat alteration and associated human activities , which include indiscriminate shooting , logging , agriculture , and development . these drivers interact with the impacts of human disturbance , such as increased access to remote habitat , hunting , tourism , selective logging , and collecting , further exacerbated by interactions with the bird\u2019s natural predators .", "the orange - breasted falcon is not known to nest apart from mature forest , although we do not know the point at which fragmented habitat becomes uninhabitable or why . small farms , orchards , and cattle ranches caused the abandonment of at least one historic territory and threaten others . construction of three hydroelectric dams along the macal river are implicated in the loss of two of four falcon territories . the last of these construction projects was completed in 2012 , with human traffic limited , although a massive infrastructure of power lines presents a high risk of falcon collisions and electrocutions . even well - meaning tourists may have a negative impact by disrupting nesting .", "it is also helpful during the young birds ' first flights , as they often end up grounded in the dense tropical forest . if they are tame , biologists can pick them and place them in a safe spot high off the ground and away from predators . but this tameness doesn ' t last . after a week or two of flying wild , these young falcons quickly grow wary of any potential predator \u2013 including humans ! nonetheless , even wild orange - breasted falcons are naturally relatively unafraid of humans , to their detriment . another unique aspect of this falcon is the long period of time \u2013 about five months \u2013 that the juveniles depend on their parents for food . other falcon species , such as the peregrine falcon and aplomado falcon , are dependent for about half that time .", "our captive orange -

controlled aviaries in wyoming . this species is very difficult to breed in captivity , despite the ease in breeding the related bat falcon and many other falcon species . of the 56 young produced in captivity since 2006 , all have been the product of artificial insemination . thirty - nine have been released in the mountain pine ridge area , including 5 in 2014 ; of these , 23 are thought to have become independent through 2013 .", "aaron spent the next six years studying the orange -

breasted falcon is unique in hunting above the canopy , the most challenging environment for a bird - eating specialist . the birds have long , narrow , pointed wings , a relatively short tail , and a heavy compact body with a deep sternum , supporting powerful flight muscles . these features maximize speed as opposed to maneuverability , for preying on a wide variety of small - to - medium - sized birds and bats , which are captured in high - speed stoops when they are briefly exposed above the forest canopy or while crossing a canyon , stream , or river valley . the female orange - breasted falcon is the most heavily armed of falcons , possessing a massive , laterally compressed beak , thick powerful legs , and enormous feet relative to its body size\u2014important attributes for grasping and quickly dispatching dangerous quarry such as parrots . males are half the size of their mates and lack their impressive armature , a difference that supports the female\u2019s dominant role in social relations , nest defense , and exploitation of a varied prey base .", "the techniques used to release young orange - breasted falcons to the wild are similar to those used for releasing aplomado falcons and other birds of prey \u2013 with several important differences . the orange - breasted falcon chicks are hand - raised in small groups by a biologist . this is to help keep them tame while they are in the hack box , where the chicks become accustomed to their new surroundings , and for a short while after they are released to the wild . this is helpful because the chicks vary quite a bit in age when they arrive at the hack site . if the chicks are tame , biologists can release the older birds while still climbing up to the box in the evening to feed the younger birds that haven ' t yet flown for the first time .", "though there were probably never lots of orange - breasted falcons , the species\u2019 range in central america today is limited to areas of belize , guatemala and panama \u2013 a very small portion of its historic range . biologists estimate the population in this region to be made up of only around 30 pairs . that isn ' t very many ! by looking at records for this species in south america since 1970 , biologists believe that this striking falcon ' s population is in trouble there , as well .", "\u201cno , \u201d i replied , feeling guilty about his arduous descent to the nest . \u201ccome on back up . \u201d taking the last young falcon from the nest would be unethical .", "peregrine fund president bill burnham asked me to visit baker to explain the breeding biology of the orange - breasted falcon . i had never seen the bird , but i had lots of experience breeding falcons in captivity . early in march of 1992 , aaron and i were sprawled on a massive boulder in the middle of the macal river , in the shadow of a gigantic cliff\u2014an irresistible ecological magnet for falcons and one of aaron\u2019s orange - breasted falcon territories . armed with binoculars and a spotting scope , we scanned the sky for raptors . as if by magic , a male orangebreasted falcon appeared above us , spiraling effortlessly upward in the noonday thermals until it became a tiny speck . an instant later , it came plummeting earthward in a blistering vertical stoop , climaxed by streaking across the cliff face , its defiant kak - kak - kak call echoing between the towering canyon walls . then it rocketed off in a different direction to chase a black vulture and next a plumbeous kite . it was the most spectacular and inspiring aerial performance i had ever seen in a lifetime of working with falcons . what bravado and courage he showed . surely the bird was reassuring his unseen mate and serving notice that this was his domain and he was invincible .", "the maya mountains of western belize and the mirador cordillera of guatemala are home to the largest and densest known orange - breasted falcon population , which includes 32 territories . seven of them have been abandoned for more than a decade . aerial surveys in 2009 and 2010 located 10 additional eyries in the rugged and remote southern maya mountains , which are only accessible by helicopter . the massif is 75 miles long by 40 miles wide with a northeast - southwest orientation extending about 20 miles into heavily developed eastern guatemala , where the falcons are absent .", "perhaps the biggest threat that these falcons face is loss or change in their habitat because of practices like logging , agriculture , and development . another threat could also be the growing population of black vultures in the area . black vultures are scavengers that can eat just about anything . they are sometimes attracted to garbage dumps and tend to congregate there in large numbers , picking through the trash to find tasty morsels to eat . this means that black vultures can often be found in areas where humans are present . as people move closer and closer to orange - breasted falcon habitat , the vultures might be moving with them . black vultures might compete with these falcons for nesting cliffs and probably consume falcon eggs and young , too !", "aaron spent the night at a medical clinic , soaking up antihistamines , while oscar and i sat at camp , removing each other\u2019s stingers like a pair of chimpanzees picking lice . we waited until after dark to collect our gear at the cliff , after the bees had settled down . unaware that highly aggressive africanized bees had displaced the mild -

breasted falcons . the forest life zone is borderline tropical - subtropical moist to wet forest . both the falcon and its prey breed during the dry season , from february through may , a period with the highest temperatures and lowest rainfall .", "many authors have reflected on the orange - breasted falcon\u2019s rarity throughout its range . we believe that its specialized habitat requirements , low reproductive rate , and predation by a plethora of natural enemies are the primary causes for its historic scarcity . more recently , the cumulative effects of habitat alteration , fragmentation , human conflicts , and increasing predation may explain the catastrophic reduction in the species\u2019 range in central america and its declining population . given the species\u2019 ecological challenges and its apparent isolation from the little - known population in south america , the extirpation of the small population in belize and guatemala seems increasingly likely .", "orange - breasted falcons have probably always been rare because of their specialized habitat : large cliffs where they nest and large areas of unbroken tropical forest where they live . historically , their range may have been from southern mexico to northern argentina . today , they occupy just 4 % of their former range in central america where a small population of fewer than 40 pairs persist in areas of belize , guatemala and panama .", "there are three popular birding sites in central america where orange -

breasted falcon ( falco deiroleucus ) was limited to a few sight records in the literature and some sketchy notes attached to 19th and early 20th - century museum specimens and a single breeding record in tikal national park , guatemala . in 1978 , tom cade , founder and president of the peregrine fund , and biologist peter jenny assembled sparse geographic information and began searching for the species in ecuador , peru , and guatemala . from the early 1980s through 1991 , researchers conducted studies of newly located territories in guatemala and belize as part of the maya project , a nearly decade - long ( 1988 - 96 ) ecological raptor study ( see neotropical birds of prey : biology and ecology of a forest raptor community ) . graduate student aaron baker was part of the project and began the first natural - history study of the orange - breasted falcon in 1992 . he searched for cliffs by questioning local people , examining topographical maps , and exploring river valleys and areas of high relief on foot , by car , and from fixed - wing aircraft . by 1996 baker had expanded his study population to 19 territories in belize and guatemala . our present - day research and restoration program builds upon this series of earlier investigations .", "aaron baker calculated that 55 percent of orange - breasted falcon nesting attempts failed and that predators caused most of the failures . the list of potential predators is enormous , from jays and toucans to hawk - eagles , owls , forest - falcons , and vultures ; mammals such as the tayra ( a large mustelid ) and rats ; arboreal snakes , insects , and parasites . prominent on the list are the black - and - white hawk - eagle , stygian owl , and black vulture . of them , the black vulture is the most ubiquitous and is increasing in numbers along with the human population . a group of vultures can overpower a falcon\u2019s aggressive defense and consume its eggs or young . they also usurp prime nesting cliffs . more predatory than the turkey vulture and the much less common king vulture , they forage by sight , attacking and killing small animals and fledgling birds .", "a group of vultures can overpower a falcon\u2019s aggressive defense and consume its eggs or young . black vulture is the most ubiquitous and is increasing in numbers along with the human population . black vulture by jordan rolen / macaulay library .", "scott newbold leads our current field team , aided by local naturalists jonathan urbina and rony jobel and our rock - climbing specialist matt allshouse . they visit orange - breasted falcon territories multiple times each season to assess occupancy and productivity . africanized bees limited our banding activities prior to 2011 , when we began using full - body bee suits despite the heat and discomfort . we use color - coded leg bands with white letters and numerals as safe and permanent markers for future demographic studies . we do not capture adults or use radio telemetry because of the inherent risks to the small , fragile population . we rely on old - fashioned fieldwork , with the aid of boots , binoculars , and bug spray !", "orange - breasted falcons occupy their territories year - round and typically are found in areas of towering cliffs within vast expanses of moist tropical and subtropical mature forest in the vicinity of water . cliffs in belize and guatemala are large ( typically 125 meters high and 250 meters wide ) with obscure ledges , potholes , and crevices , which provide shade from the blazing tropical sun and safety from predators . there are few tree - nesting records , possibly because trees offer less protection from predators and the sun\u2019s heat . the species is not known to nest in tropical savannah\u2014suitable habitat for lookalike species such as bat and aplomado falcons . some researchers suggest that orange - breasted falcons are birds of edges , borders , and clearings adjacent to montane forest , which may offer more rewarding hunting opportunities . we have found that the species does frequent a mosaic of habitats , including farmed fields , orchards , and pasturelands\u2014but only if mature forest is the dominant community .", "these falcons are extremely fast flyers and though no study has been done to measure their speed , biologists who have observed these birds in fast pursuit believe they could even be faster than the peregrine falcon , one of the fastest animals on earth ! orange - breasted falcons use several different hunting strategies to capture their prey . the most often perch on high , exposed snags , which give them a great view over the tree canopy or adjacent valleys . once prey is spotted , they might chase their quarry in direct pursuit over the canopy , sometimes making steep climbs into the air before falling in a short stoop onto their prey . they also may pursue their dinner in a very fast horizontal tail - chase or scan the sky for swifts and other high - flying birds and go up to meet them in the air .", "like most other falcons , orange - breasted falcons do not build their own nests . instead , they often make small depressions in the substrate of ledges or in crevices of cliffs or sink holes . in guatemala , biologists found a pair nesting on a mayan temple in tikal national park , and they know of one instance of this species nesting in a palm tree . in south america , biologists have documented the falcons nesting under clumps of plants growing on large trees and in natural cavities of large trees , at the base of fronds of palm trees , and on cliffs .", "captive - release programs are typically employed only as a lastditch effort when species have been extirpated from all or much of their former range . but we believe that active species rescue is preferable to watchful waiting . our goal is to introduce unrelated captive - bred falcons to the local population . these individuals have the potential to enhance genetic variation , stabilize recruitment deficits , and help mitigate population declines . because dna fingerprinting indicates that the orange - breasted falcons in central and south america are a single population without subspecies , the risk of introducing maladaptive genes into the population is minimal .", "species that are highly specialized ecologically and have small , isolated populations are prone to population declines and local extirpation . both territorial occupancy and productivity in our core study population in belize have dropped by half since the 1990s . the number of eyries has fallen from 12 to 6 with only 2 failed attempts to reoccupy one of the eyries . productivity in belize and guatemala was close to one young per active eyrie in the 1990s but has declined to ~ 0 . 5 since 2003 ( berry et al . 2010 ) . productivity in both countries has been highly variable in recent years with a record low of only two young fledged in 2012 , 15 in 2013 ( including 5 young with a captive - bred parent ) , and back to a more typical 8 young in 2014 fledged from 15 eyries . the maintenance level for the well - studied peregrine falcon is more than double with one or more young per active eyrie . whether an extraordinary year now and then like the one we experienced in 2013 is sufficient to sustain a long - lived species such as the orange - breasted falcon is unknown . if that good year does not materialize , the risk of entering an extinction vortex is great .", "our research has revealed many of the orange - breasted falcon\u2019s mysteries , and yet we have barely scratched the surface when it comes to fully understanding its population dynamics , the carrying capacity of its environment , its fecundity , longevity , and recruitment needs , the impacts of weather , parasites , and predators , and the consequences of anthropogenic activities . we are banding chicks to help analyze population viability and increasing fledging success by applying prophylactic treatments for parasites . we have experimented with vulture exclusion nest boxes , and we are enhancing genetic variation by introducing unrelated captive - bred falcons . but none of these initiatives is likely to succeed unless the local people embrace a strong conservation ethic . in partnership with the cornell lab of ornithology and university of wyoming , we are developing elementary school education programs in central america , focusing on the important role of raptors in the environment . we are making a difference but our success will depend on public support and enlightened future management .", "two of six occupied territories in guatemala are located outside tikal national park and have no protection . they are threatened by rapidly expanding rural communities with a much higher rate of deforestation , colonization , agriculture , and subsistence hunting than in belize . even though falcon occupancy and productivity have been more stable in guatemala than belize , the inevitable correlates of human progress are likely to have a greater negative impact over time .", "conservation : friedmann ( 1950 ) summarized the known history of the orange - breasted falcon with the terse comment , \" apparently nowhere numerous , \" and it remains poorly known and scarce to the present time . cade ( 1982 ) regarded it as probably the most sparsely distributed falcon in the world , and he suspected that the total population might be no more than a few thousand individuals . the reasons for its scarcity are not apparent , as noted by collar ( 1986 ) . it is clearly endangered in the northern mesoamerican portion of its range and very rare or extinct in central america south of belize and el pet\u00e9n , guatemala ( thorstrom et al . 2002 ) . there is little evidence to suggest that it was ever more than rare or uncommon there within historical times . it is probably more common , but still poorly known and locally distributed , in the humid lowlands and foothills of south america east of the andes . there appears to be no reason to suspect a population decline at this time , other than locally due to habitat loss , but the low population size in northern central america ( the only area where it has been relatively well studied ) and its absence from other apparently suitable areas are causes for vigilance . it is ominous that peter jenny visited many of the known specimen localities for this species in the early 1980s , but found suitable forest habitat remaining at only one of them ( cade 1982 ) . collar et al . ( 1994 ) considered this to be a globally near threatened species , but it iwas still categorized as a species of \" least concern \" by birdlife international . in 2012 , however , birdlife changed its status to near threatened . more . . . .", "like all birds of prey , orange - breasted falcons are visually oriented and their eyesight is eight times better than ours . how do we know this , since we cannot see through their eyes ? we know because they have eight times the numbers of visual cells ( rods and cones ) in their retinas than we do . even as young chicks , they pick up on small movements , such as a fly buzzing nearby , a rustle in the grass , or a passing bird flying overhead . biologists who were caring for young falcons prior to their release in our restoration program noticed that the young birds were fascinated with a ceiling fan . they focused intently on it , moving their heads in sync with the rotating blades ! their lives depend on their ability to locate and identify prey flying high up in the sky or moving deftly across open areas in the forest canopy or rivers where these falcons hunt .", "six pairs reside in guatemala , all in the pet\u00e9n department , which includes tikal national park . the topography is gently rolling , broken in a few areas by steep karst terrain with few large escarpments , limiting the abundance of the falcons . elevations range from 100 to 300 meters . the climate is lowland tropical , warmer and wetter than the mountains of belize . the warm , moist tropical environment , coupled with a pronounced dry season for nesting , may be critical ingredients for the falcon\u2019s specialized niche .", "following their first week of exploration , the young falcons begin aerial games of chase , which soon become spectacular high - speed mock attacks . they also play keep away , plucking a pinecone or small stick from a tree , or catching a hapless butterfly or a giant flying grasshopper , and carrying it aloft , daring the others to \u201ccatch me if you can . \u201d following an intense pursuit , the prize is dropped , triggering a mad dive by the participants to retrieve it and renew the game . these chases are thrilling to watch as the falcons twist and dodge between the trees , flying at speeds comparable to that of a major league fastball pitch . orange - breasted falcons may be among the fastest falcons in the world . although these games may look like play to us , they have deadly serious survival implications as the young falcons hone their hunting skills . losing a meal struck down over the canopy could later mean the difference between life and death by starvation .", "like other falcons , orange - breasted falcons are also extremely agile flyers . when they are young , they develop amazing flying skills through hard work and practice in what appears to us like playing games . just as a cat \" plays \" with a toy mouse , these young falcons play to hone their future hunting skills . we have had the privilege of watching these young birds in action ! in the first weeks after they fledge from the nest , the young falcons play \u201ctag\u201d by chasing one another , twisting , turning and diving after each other through the air . the wind makes a loud whooshing noise as they pass relatively low to the ground . another popular game is \" keep away \" with sticks or pine cones . they fly close to a pine tree and grab a pine cone with their talons . all the while , other young falcons are in hot pursuit . the bird carrying the cone eventually drops it , a buddy catches it in midair , and the chase continues . soon , they practice catching butterflies and large grasshoppers and eventually small migrating birds , such as swallows flying south over the forest canopy in the fall . eventually , these falcons no longer need parental care and feeding .", "although 2013 was a very good year , it was marred by the loss of three of seven young falcons\u2014two captive - bred young and one of b1 and caya\u2019s youngsters . overwhelming evidence points to predation by a black - and - white hawk - eagle , the first such losses in five years of releases at the current hack site . juveniles are vulnerable , especially when they are roaming the countryside . we witnessed one unsuccessful hawk - eagle attack , when one of the young falcons managed to dive into the canyon to pick up speed and maneuverability and escaped . in flat country , he would probably have been killed . black - and - white hawk - eagles hunt unseen from the clouds , stooping like a falcon to surprise their victims before they can react or sound a warning alarm .", "our hack - site attendants\u2014typically college students exploring options for graduate school\u2014care for the young falcons during daylight hours . our role is to provide food , guidance , and protection . the attendants quickly identify and bond with each falcon through its vocalizations , wing beat , appearance , and unique personality . some falcons are sociable and friendly ; others are withdrawn , cautious , or even grumpy like a spoiled child . the attendants are like surrogate parents , initially hand - feeding and then guiding the development of essential social and hunting skills , many of which the birds seem to learn by trial and error and by watching their parents . the best part of my job as manager , apart from being there at the site , is to interpret the falcons\u2019 behavior for the hack - site attendants and direct future activities in nightly emails .", "food and feeding behavior : relative to its overall body size , this species probably has the largest feet of any falcon and also a particularly large beak , adaptations for capturing its prey , medium - sized to large birds ( particularly doves , parakeets , and swifts ) , bats , and large insects , in flight . in the well - studied nesting population in guatemala and belize , birds comprised 85 . 7 % and bats 14 . 3 % of the 105 observed prey items , and nearly half of the avian prey weighed between 25 - 75 g ( baker et al . 1998 ) . for unknown reasons , the observed hunting success ( only 4 % for 208 attempts ) is among the lowest documented for any raptor ( baker et al . op cit . ) . these falcons generally perch on high , exposed snags , sallying forth to pursue aerial prey in direct merlin - like pursuit over the canopy , either in steep climbs terminating in a short stoop or in a very fast tail - chase ; they may scan the sky for swifts and other high - flying birds and go up to meet them in the air ( jenny and cade 1986 ) . jenny saw birds stooping in peregrine fashion on two occasions , and haverschmidt ( 1968 ) also described the method of hunting , stooping on birds in flight , as like that of the peregrine . baker et al .

exist in altered environments coupled with its high fecundity has contributed to its successful establishment and spread in florida , usa , where it consumes valuable horticultural plants , invades dwellings , and threatens imperilled native species through predation and usurpation of burrows . the invasive range of c . similis also includes venezuela and the colombian islands of providencia and san andres .", "feed adult spiny -

feeding them . once they are comfortable with your presence and are taking food from your fingers , you can begin to pick them up . when picking up a pet spiny - tailed iguana , it is best to approach slowly and place your hand palm side up in front of the lizard . try putting your other hand behind it and gently coax the spiny - tail onto your hand . never restrain your animal by the tail , as it can break off . every spiny - tailed iguana is different . some are so tame and inquisitive they seem to enjoy human interaction . others are a little flighty and require a bit more patience when interacting . any spiny -

tailed iguana from international trade . san pedro nolasco island is part of the gulf of california biosphere reserve . settlements cannot be constructed and the extraction of flora and fauna is not permitted in this area . the island can only be visited with special permits and research is regulated . though proper laws to protect these iguanas exist , additional enforcement is needed in order to regulate the extraction of individuals for the pet trade . a national plan to regulate invasive alien rats is in place , however , action on this plan has not yet been initiated on this island . additional research is needed to characterize the life history , taxonomy , and population trends of this iguana .", "the relationship between locomotion and aspiration breathing was investigated in the lizards iguana iguana , ctenosaura similis , varanus exanthematicus and varanus salvator , and the quail coturnix coturnix . respiratory air - flow during walking and running on a 7 . 3 m track or on a treadmill was measured with a bidirectional flow meter attached to one nostril . in all four species of lizards , lung ventilation drops markedly during locomotion . tidal volume decreases as speed increases , often by more than an order of magnitude at intermediate and high speeds , and the rate of decline is most pronounced at the lowest speeds . minute ventilation peaks at or before the reported maximum aerobic speed and decreases at higher speeds . in contrast , quail increase their minute ventilation during running . several observations support the hypothesis that the aspiration of lizards is mechanically constrained by locomotion which employs lateral vertebral bending and sprawling posture . 1 . minute ventilation decreases as running speed increases . 2 . disruption of ventilation is temporally coincident with the locomotor movements . 3 . during running the largest breaths correspond to the strides of longest duration or to brief pauses in the locomotor movements .", "habitat loss and modification associated with residential and commercial development , as well as small -

scale eradication of individuals due to them being perceived as pests is also a threat . the wide - ranging congener , ctenosaura similis , has recently been introduced to a small satellite island , less than 50 m from roat\u00e1n . this invasive species could easily disperse to roat\u00e1n and also threaten the roat\u00e1n spiny - tailed iguana through competition and hybridization . current efforts are under - way to minimize this threat through removal ( s . pasachnik pers . comm . 2009 ) . although this iguana is listed in appendix ii of the convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora ( cites ) , exploitation for food and the pet trade are both contributing to the decline of this species . hunting for food , both whole animals and eggs , is a significant threat to the persistence of this species .", "digestibility , feed efficiency , and the effect of sex were evaluated in black iguanas ( ctenosaura pectinata ) using two commercial pellets ( rabbit and chicken ) . the experiment was performed in 80 iguanas in a completely randomized design with a factorial arrangement 2\u00d72 over 105 days . no differences were detected by food type in weight gain ( chicken vs . rabbit : 121 vs . 154 mg / d ) and daily intake ( chicken vs . rabbit : 524 vs . 551 mg / d ) , but differences were detected ( p < 0 . 05 ) in feed conversion ( chicken vs . rabbit : 6 . 45 vs . 4 . 47 ) . rabbit pellets showed higher digestibility than chicken food ( p < 0 . 01 ) in dry matter ( 59 . 8 vs . 41 . 4 % ) and ndf ( 55 . 4 vs . 43 . 6 % ) , respectively . sex had no effect in any of the variable responses . black iguanas can be raised since 6 months old in captivity with commercial food designed for rabbit or broiler . no special physiological adaptations occur in black iguanas correlated with change in feeding habits during ontogeny .", "i tested the hypothesis that an animal with an ontogenetic diet shift must have different digestive efficiencies for foods that correspond to its diet shift , so that nutrient and energy extraction are maximized . the iguanine lizard ctenosaura pectinata undergoes an ontogenetic diet shift from eating insects as a juvenile to plants as an adult . when fed six different pure foods from the natural diets of different age classes , c . pectinata assimilated nutrients and energy differently depending on food type and age class . extraction of energy and nutrients in insect larvae was maximized by juvenile lizards . calcium , phosphorus , and energy were readily assimilated from flowers and fruit by immature and adult lizards . magnesium levels were highest in leaves and were extracted by immature and adult lizards , but xenobiotic effects of one plant leaf ( croton suberosus ) , eaten by adults , killed juvenile lizards . although juvenile c . pectinata ate some flowers ( senna wislizenii ) naturally , they were less efficient at digesting cell walls from these plant parts than were older lizards . ontogenetic changes in ctenosaur digestive physiology were not the result of a trade - off involving ecological costs of different foods ; rather , each age class preferred a diet that maximized its physiological benefit .", "the native range of ctenosaura similis extends from southern mexico through panama . from an initial introduction of 3 animals in 1979 , the species now numbers in the thousands on gasparilla island in southwest florida . in response to complaints of property damage from residents and threats to native species , local officials and the us department of agriculture wildlife services began a removal program in 2008 . through 2011 , trappers removed 9467 ctenosaurs . the number removed declined from 32 iguanas / day in 2008 to 1 . 9 iguanas / day in 2011 despite no easing of the control effort . we necropsied 2757 ctenosaurs to document aspects of their natural history . females outnumbered males overall , although the largest size class ( > 300 mm snout - vent length ) included 32 males and just 2 females . reproduction was seasonal . we found oviducal eggs in females from early apr to early jun , approximately 2 months later than c . similis in its native range . we trapped hatchlings from late jul to early oct coincident with the summer rainy season . clutch size increased with female body size , with 62 being the largest clutch size recorded . in general , the biology of the invasive population on gasparilla island resembles native c . similis populations in central america , except for the lack of large individuals . we suggest that shorter day length and colder temperatures create environmental conditions that are suboptimal for individual growth compared to those in the native range .", "this study was conducted to compare the growth patterns of black iguana ( ctenosaura pectinata ) under captivity in two communities : montecillo , state of mexico ( temperate weather ) and nisanda , oaxaca ( tropical weather ) . two hundred and sixty black iguana newborns were included . in montecillo , iguanas were fed a diet containing 16 % to 22 % crude protein ( cp ) , and 13 to 25 % neutral detergent fiber ( ndf ) . in nisanda , iguanas were fed with \u201ctulipacho\u201d ( hibiscus sp ) containing 21 . 64 % cp and 31 . 62 % ndf . variables analyzed included : body weight ( g ) , snout - vent length ( mm ) , total length ( snout - tail , mm ) and percent mortality . growth parameters on each population were estimated with a sigmoid model . the average body weight after 761 d was greater ( p\u20390 . 01 ) for the iguanas in montecillo ( 232 . 0 g ) than in nisanda ( 30 . 2 g ) . snout - vent length and total length variables were different ( p\u20390 . 01 ) with values of 152 . 1 mm and 452 . 6 mm in montecillo , vs . 90 . 1 mm and 204 . 0 mm in nisanda , respectively . mortality was higher ( p\u20390 . 01 ) in nisanda than in montecillo ( 81 . 2 % vs . 7 . 3 % ) . it is concluded that growth patterns of black iguana under captivity are determined by proper management and nutrition systems , when and if adequate temperature is provided in the iguana\u2019s house .", "ontogenetic shifts from insect consumption by juveniles to plant consumption by adults are rare in the herbivorous lizard family iguanidae . my investigations on diet and digestive tract anatomy of the iguanid lizard ctenosaura pectinata show that this species has an ontogenetic diet shift . insects were rare in adult diets but constituted 86 . 5 % ( by volume ) of the food eaten by the smallest juveniles . all age classes ate some plant parts from a range of plant types , but flowers and leaves of legumes were a primarily food source . non - adult lizards had the widest food niche breadths . arthropods in the diet of juveniles and immatures covaried seasonally with the decline of arthropod abundance . several hypotheses could explain this ontogenetic plasticity in diet . i rejected hypotheses that gut structure constrained juveniles to an arthropod diet and that insect consumption was purely an artifact of plant consumption because ( 1 ) size - adjusted gut morphology and capacity was similar among age classes , and ( 2 ) no food plants sampled had an excessive density of arthropods . i supported an alternative hypothesis that juveniles can eat plants but do not because insects provide a more nutritious diet . this conclusion was based on the observation that the juvenile hindgut is similar to that of herbivorous adults , and the propensity for juveniles to consume primarily , but not exclusively , insects when they were most abundant . the hindgut represents the site of fermentative plant fiber breakdown in many herbivorous lizards . insect foods can compensate for size - related nutritional needs ( energy and protein ) and digestive limitations in juveniles . opportunistic feeding to maintain a broad diet might help juvenile and immature lizards through high - predation - risk growth periods by reducing searching costs , increasing nutritional and energetic gains due to associative effects , and increasing new food exposure .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd html 4 . 01 transitional / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "uetz , p . & jir\u00ed hosek ( eds . ) , the reptile database , ( http : / / www . reptile -

belitung and anambas ( all indonesia ) , and tioman island ( malaysia ) ( see figure 1a for exact localities ) .", "giant clam larval transport success appears to be largely driven by variability in annual hydrodynamics ( for the year that was modelled ) . consistent westward residual currents in the outer straits of singapore during january and in april drive larval transport towards the west , with higher larval retention in the northwestern reefs . in contrast , the lack of residuals in june allows much higher retention in the northern and southern reefs with higher larval settlement . in singapore , broadcasting corals annually spawn in late march or mid april [ 66 ] . while the moderate residuals during this time may be favourable for coral larvae with short settlement periods [ 73 ] those with longer life cycles , such as giant clams , may experience dilution of larvae into the outer straits when released during this period . the near absence of residual currents in june favours retention of clam larvae , reducing offshore dispersal . larval mortality also greatly influences transport success , which in turn affects juvenile recruitment on reefs [ 60 ] . sedimentation velocity and diel vertical migration , however , have negligible effects on transport success , suggesting that ocean currents primarily influence larval dispersal [ 74 ] . results from this modelling study should be interpreted with caution , bearing in mind the various assumptions made . the transport success and dispersal distances predicted by the model probably do not equate to actual recruitment success in the field .", "stage 5 : during the last metamorphosis stage , the velum and fully developed foot of pediveligers allows them to alternately swim and crawl on the benthos ; over time , these larvae become increasingly sedentary [ 11 ] , [ 56 ] . transport is completed after this metamorphosis stage . in stage 5 , juveniles ( 8 to 9 days old ) either continue to exhibit the behaviour of stage 4 larvae , or settle onto the coral reefs . giant clam larvae respond to settlement cues such as the presence of crustose coralline algae [ 11 ] and / or conspecific adults [ 57 ] , [ 58 ] , both of which are found on coral reefs . hence , in our model , larval settlement was mimicked when larvae passed over coral reef areas ( see figure 2 ) .", "egg dispersal potential\u2014time - series plots describing the arrival time of eggs over certain clams was determined by plotting larval density ( number per m 2 ) in the model at each observation point ( usually one grid cell ) showing the accumulation of eggs over any specified coral reef area . donor -

waq ) [ 43 ] . delft3d - waq is a transport model that has been successfully applied to dispersal simulations of seagrass seeds , fish larvae and mangrove propagules [ 13 ] , [ 44 ] , [ 45 ] , [ 46 ] . the model calculates the concentrations of \u2018substances\u2019 ( in this case : either eggs or larvae ) for each time - step as a function of the initial concentrations , advective and dispersive transport , and biological characteristics and processes . delft3d - waq is an eulerian model based on the finite - volume method ( i . e . multiplication of fluxes with concentrations to obtain masses across internal and external boundaries ) . both finite - volume methods and particle tracking model approaches can ( in principle ) provide comparable results [ 47 ] . with our focus on mid - field and far - field effects , the waq model ( including the extensive and well - validated biological process library ) is more appropriate than a particle - tracking method . the main advantages of particle - tracking are that it offers sub - grid model resolution as well as the opportunity to track individual seedlings , both of which are not very relevant to our study . the actual water system is represented within delft3d - waq by means of computational elements ( segments ) . the flow between segments is derived from the hydrodynamic model ( delft3d - flow ) of the same resolution ( i . e . down to 100 m around the southern islands ) .", "the poor larval connectivity from regional reefs to singapore could be explained by the strong surface currents flowing between the andaman sea and south china sea during the monsoons [ 75 ] that move larvae out of the singapore strait with little retention . poor larval connectivity with most external potential donor reefs may also be attributed to peninsular malaysia . phylogeographic studies of marine invertebrates and mangroves have shown that this peninsular acts as a barrier that disrupts gene flows between the east and west coasts , corresponding to the western sunda shelf barrier [ 18 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 76 ] . population genetic breaks in t . crocea populations on the sunda shelf and western indonesia also provide evidence for limited connectivity in this region [ 17 ] , [ 18 ] . in contrast , offshore coral reefs located to the southeast of singapore , combined with the favourable westward residuals along the straits [ 77 ] and absence of significant land barriers , encourage high larval settlement and retention . as predicted by the model , t . squamosa populations in batam and bintan could provide a significant stock of source larvae for the clam -

grey legs are short , and the feet are zygodactylous . claws are long .", "it prefers to feed on the ground , where it hops awkwardly . to feed , it uses its long barbed tongue to lap up the ants . we can find it on dead trees where it moves as tits . it feeds mainly on ants and larvae , but also other insects , spiders , molluscs and some crustaceans . in winter , it consumes fruits , berries , seeds and acorns . usually seen alone , in pairs or in family groups , it may feed in small flocks during the migrations . the northern flicker is one of the few north american woodpeckers that are strongly migratory , mainly the northernmost populations .", "male flickers recognize females by sight . to protect his mate or territory , birds of the same sex become aggressive toward each other ( palmer and fowler 1975 ) . aggressive displays such as \" bill directing \" or \" bill poking \" are used by flickers . that is , a flicker may point his bill at a rival with his head inclined forward , or actually peck at an opponent . a more aggressive display is \" head swinging , \" whereby a flicker will use side - to - side movements of his head and body against an opponent . there is also a \" head bobbing \" display that may be used . sometimes tail spreading accompanies head swinging or bobbing displays ( short 1982 , bent 1992 ) .", "northern flickers mainly consume insects and invertebrates , such as grasshoppers , crickets , ants , termites , wasps , aphids , beetles and their larvae , caterpillars , and spiders . they also consume fruits in the fall and winter , as well as weed seeds , acorns , and other types of nuts .", "northern yellow - shafted flickers from alaska and canada strongly migratory , most traveling east and then south . big flights move down atlantic coast in fall , migrating by day . red - shafted flickers often migrate shorter distances , moving southward and from mountains into lowlands ; some spread eastward on great plains in winter .", ") . many researchers have reported on aspects of behavior and nest use by northern flickers as part of general studies of cavity - nesting birds . recently , such interest has intensified as flickers have been recognized as \" keystone \" excavators that may influence the abundance of secondary cavity - nestering species in forest systems (", "northern flickers make a loud , rolling rattle with a piercing tone that rises and falls in volume several times . the song lasts 7 or 8 seconds and is quite similar to the call of the pileated woodpecker . you\u2019ll hear it in the spring and early summer , while pairs are forming and birds are establishing their territories .", "spring is on its way when the loud joyful call of the flicker : \" wicker , wicker , wicker \" , echoes through the woodlands . males are known for drumming in long continuous rolls made by rapid blows with his bill . male flickers will often return to their favorite drumming spot where most likely it is the loudest and noisiest spot . flickers are found in southern states and east of the rocky mountains .", "flight : the flight of a flicker is preformed in a straighter manner than that of any other woodpecker . their migrations are performed at night , even during the coldest winters . when passing from one tree to another on wing , they also fly in a straight line , until right before they land , they then suddenly raise themselves a few feet and fasten themselves to the bark of the trunk by their claws and tail .", "birds exhibit diverse strategies for migrating between their breeding and wintering sites , such as variation in routes , timing and distances travelled . patterns of migration can be described at different taxonomic and spatial scales and vary between species , between populations and also within populations [ 1 ] . many individuals in the northern hemisphere show roughly north\u2013south parallel movements meaning that western - breeding populations winter farther west than eastern - breeding populations , on a continental scale [ 2 \u2013 5 ] . however , cases where eastern and western populations cross - over during migration are also known [ 6 ] . populations may also differ in their propensity to migrate based on latitude . for example , northern populations of european robins ( erithacus rubecula ) are migratory , whereas southern populations are resident [ 7 ] . in other cases \u2018leapfrog\u2019 migrations may occur where northern - breeding populations winter at more southerly latitudes than do the southern - breeding populations [ 8 ] . chain migration , in contrast to \u2018leapfrog\u2019 migration , occurs when winter populations occur in the same north\u2013south sequence as breeding populations [ 1 ] ."]}

his own training centre and his own studs to the extent that three quarters of his 100 horses , including dawn approach , the world\u2019s most awaited three year old , have also been bred by him in his native ireland . and that\u2019s before we start talking about the press ups . at 71 , jim still does 100 every morning .", "\u201cit\u2019s a lazy man\u2019s way of keeping fit , \u201d he says characteristically dry , witty and challenging at the same time . in the early days the challenge and the dryness were more marked than the wit and the warmth beneath . it made him both a formidable opponent and a fearsome employer accentuated by his own rigid no - smoking , no - drinking , mass - every - sunday regime , and by the self - belief necessary for his own entirely untutored entry into the training ranks . \u201che seemed to come from nowhere , \u201d says the lucid and legendary john oxx , himself the son of a trainer , \u201cwe looked at each other and said \u2018jim who ? \u2019\u201d", "when they first asked the question jim was already all of 35 . by then most top trainers are a couple of classic winners into their careers having earlier spent several years sitting at the feet of some favoured mentor . jim had come via accountancy , car sales and show jumper trading , and as one of six siblings of a farming family in county wexford there was so little time for sitting down that he did not watch a film until he was 16 and did not see a traffic light until two years later when he went to dublin to start work as a cost clerk in an electrical firm .", "thoughts that jim bolger , the cool , neat and meticulous mastermind who has saddled no less than five of the last seven dewhurst winners , was ever a mere horny handed son of soil are dispelled by the news that his father\u2019s sister married robert brennan who became the irish free state\u2019s first minister to washington having earlier been founder of the irish press newspaper , national director of elections for sinn fein and been condemned to death but not executed in the easter rising of 1916 . it may have been a simple farmhouse but there can\u2019t have been many in county wexford in the early 50s with the new yorker on the table complete with stories from robert brennan\u2019s daughter , jim\u2019s cousin maeve , whose brilliant , troubled life is a cherished landmark on the irish literary scene just as her lipstick and nylon stocking appearance was a wondrous visitation to her uncle\u2019s home .", "nonetheless this was deepest , rural ireland with horses working the land and central to its being . jim was bright enough to move on from first school to the christian brothers in enniscorthy but vowed to make a living with horses someday . significantly his early experience was as much to do with dealing as riding . not for him the jockey and trainer\u2019s nursery of pony racing and point to points , but the breaking and selling of young horses and , when possible , doing a bit of show jumping for himself . \u201cfor years while i was working in dublin , \u201d he said quietly as we watched dawn approach come out on to the woodchip gallop at the training base bolger has moulded on to the shoulder of coolcullen hill in county kilkenny , \u201ci used to say that i had never lost money on a horse . i even sold a grade b show jumper to a young libyan called major gaddafi . wonder what happened to him . \u201d", "jim loved his riding \u2013 \u201cbesides winning , \u201d he says , \u201cthe best thing in racing is riding a good jumper over fences at speed\u201d \u2013 but he was always a pragmatist . \u201cwith the show jumpers i would ride them in the ordinary competitions but i was not good enough for the top classes and had a friend who rode them for me in them . i did have three winners from 12 rides in bumpers but that was only by default , and after i got kicked to bits in my second point to point i said that this was an indulgence i could not afford . \u201d", "dawn approach is the ultimate example of how pragmatism is still attached to what he calls his original \u201cgrandiose dream that we would one day breed and run our own\u201d . for after winning at royal ascot last summer he was sold to sheikh mohammed but stayed on at coolcullen just as his sire new approach did when the sheikh bought him after success in the 2007 dewhurst . dawn approach is slightly bigger , stronger and an even more lustrous copper chestnut than his father and without the unmanageable tendencies that saw new approach become the first horse to be ponied to the start before the derby . he won all six of his races last season , beginning with ireland\u2019s very first two year old race of 2012 exactly a year ago this sunday .", "when dawn approach won that day most people saw it as a brisk piece of bolger business to ensure new approach made a good start as a stallion . the idea that we had been looking at the future dewhurst winner seemed ridiculous \u2013 until you remembered who trained it . \u201cjim was always very resourceful and had such a belief about him , \u201d says his long standing if not long suffering wife jackie , \u201cthat i always thought we would make it . \u201d marrying jackie in the dublin years was the best thing jim ever did and the partnership is infinitely deeper than the fact that their horses run in her white silks with the purple panel down the centre .", "the plunge into full time training was taken on the back of selling a show jumper for \u00a313 , 000 , almost eight times as much in today\u2019s money . the former head of accounts for the o\u2019flaherty group would then ride ten lots a day using gallops in the phoenix park which ended at the american embassy and his wife would pick up the pieces . \u201cwe only had three staff and david downey is with us still , \u201d jackie says simply . \u201cwe all had to get by . \u201d", "two years later he was winning the musidora again with a filly called give thanks . she and her stable mate flame of tara were the best two of their sex in the country . it was jim\u2019s first full season since moving from dublin to coolcullen . \u201ci thought i would like to have a pair like them every year , \u201d he reflects wryly looking back at the high - hedged gallop up which dawn approach is about to wing on an \u201ceasy canter\u201d having done a \u201chalf speed\u201d the day before . \u201cwe were able to build two gallops here , the other is sand and both rise 150 feet , and to start the stud at redmondstown but it has not all been easy . i was never actually insolvent but there were times when we were certainly overtrading . \u201d", "outwardly the flag continued to fly . he trained over a hundred winners a season three times between 1990 and 1994 and st jovite\u2019s irish derby and king george victories in 1992 still make jim feel he was the best horse he has had so far . but a combination of major owners either dying or leaving and a disastrous conviction that breeders cup winner last tycoon would make a leading stallion almost cleaned bolger out . \u201cit was a disaster\u201d admits the trainer . \u201ci sent mares to him and bought his stock and got nothing . it cost me practically everything , hundreds of thousands of pounds . \u201d", "but jackie bolger had not been wrong to trust to her husband\u2019s resourcefulness . \u201cfor 15 years before i began training i had been invisible in racing , \u201d says jim , \u201cbut i had always been to the sales , always studied pedigrees , had my own ideas . we began to build up our mares . that \u2018grandiose\u2019 dream\u2019 took shape . \u201d as the world now knows he hit the jackpot by backing the stallion galileo and selling both new approach and the unbeaten dewhurst winner teofilo to sheikh mohammed at a life changing profit . but the horses have not just delivered because of their breeding . the way jim bolger trains them makes you shake your head in both wonder and surprise .", "ahead of us on the gallop dawn approach touches 50 kph , his red gold tail flowing elegantly behind the smooth punching of those hindquarters . jim may finally depend on his original wexford horseman\u2019s instinct or his years of pedigree study to take his training and breeding decisions , but having built things up in his own way he is prepared to use as many modern aids as seem appropriate . there is a treadmill for controlled exercise which was crucial in getting new approach back after mid - season injury and which dawn approach was on three times a week during his winter break . there is a gps system to track all fast work . there are scales to log weights every thursday and two days after every race . and the results of the equinome genetics testing system has become central to bolger\u2019s planning of his breeding operation and his analysis of his horses .", "the system categorizes a horse\u2019s stamina capabilities from a tt for middle distance to a cc for sheer speed . \u201cgalileo was a tt but he had class , \u201d says jim slipping effortlessly into the detail . \u201cthe ideal for a classic horse is ct . new approach was a ct while dawn approach is a cc . i trained his dam who had talent although she got injured , but she was by a sprinter so the derby distance is unlikely , but as he settles so well , i would not rule it out entirely . \u201d", "adrian taylor slides out of the saddle and dawn approach is led off for a 20 minute cool down on the walker . he had been ridden for just 15 minutes but would have been on the machine for twenty minutes at the walk and 15 at the trot before adrian took over and , unlike many top stables in both ireland and england , he would also do full exercise on sunday . \u201che\u2019s very much where i want him , \u201d says the trainer , \u201che would be 512 kilos now . he went up to 525 during the winter after running in the dewhurst at 495 . he will probably be on 500 for the guineas . of all the mechanical aids the one i would least like to lose is the weigh bridge but i am chasing fitness not chasing scales and anyway the most important element in the whole operation are the riders . we have some 13 very good ones and four or five who are exceptional . the riders are everything . remember what adrian said to me at the end of dawn approach\u2019s canter \u2013 \u2018who would have thought that new approach would sire something better than him in his very first crop . \u2019\u201d", "out they come again . there is adrian taylor on grand criterium de saint cloud winner loch garman \u2013 \u201che\u2019s a lovely big horse , 535 at the moment , goes for the

season . \u201d there is ronan whelan on trading leather \u2013 \u201ccould be my derby horse , but must have good ground . \u201d all three colts are home bred and run in the bolger colours just as did their sire teofilo and all will be ridden as the sire was by bolger\u2019s son in law kevin manning . loyalty and family excellence does not come any greater than this .", "head man brian o\u2019connor strides over . he is young , bright , carrot - haired and earnest . he makes you think of aidan o\u2019brien and a . p . mccoy , the two most famous of the other young men who would have looked at jim bolger in that way . time was when jim had a seemingly well won reputation of being a control freak and litigious to boot . several times he took on and beat the turf club albeit the last occasion was the hardly onerous task of overturning apprentice ronan whelan\u2019s conviction for excessive use of the whip by pointing out that his jockey had dropped the wretched thing at the start . but today\u2019s jim bolger has a serenity amidst the precision . he claims to run the redmondstown stud with just one ten minute phone call to his nephew kevin each morning , that he has not actually stepped into his five staff office since christmas , and that while he does not indulge in soft things like holidays his idea of a break is to take off to dublin for four days to read books , meet friends and go to the theatre . \u201cthey say that i have 102 employees , \u201d he says , \u201cbut i tell them there are 102 people who have just one employee . that\u2019s me and i will only go on as long as i want it to .", "over a ridiculously lucky racing life i have been privileged to visit many of the most famous places in the racing game . in all that time the only self - created ,

- the north american classification committee ( nacc ) and the south american classification committee ( sacc ) - - with the goal of near - complete compliance . the few departures from their taxonomy and nomenclature tend to be in the handful of the cases where the two committees are not in agreement , or where one or both committees makes a taxonomic or nomenclatural decision that is at odds with prevailing usage elsewhere in the world . in the latter case , this most often applies to very rare vagrants in north america ( e . g . , siberian stonechat , dusky thrush ) . all such departures are listed in detail in appendix a ( nacc ) and appendix b ( sacc ) .", "the ebird taxonomy ( v2017 ) is current with clements v2017 which is itself current with the 57th supplement to the aos -

winged gull \" to considerably rarer combinations like \"", "berylline hummingbird \" and \" white - throated sparrow x dark - eyed junco . \" note that the hybrid names always follow phylogenetic sequence , with the first species in sequence coming first in the hybrid name . hybrids are listed immediately following the issf groups in the second parent species in the sequence . all hybrids are followed by the parenthetical note \" ( hybrid ) \" -

winged teal ( american and eurasian ) are distinctive and each is treated as an issf in the ebird taxonomy , we consider the hybrid result of a mixed pairing to be an intergrade .", "spuhs ? what is a spuh , you ask ? for difficult to identify groups ( like flycatchers ) or distant birds ( hawkwatchers regularly cope with this problem ) , birders will often record their identifications only to the genus level , or to some other level above species . \" spuh \" is our affectionate term for birds not identified to the species level . examples include : empidonax sp . , scoter sp . , accipiter sp . , or duck sp . many birders keep track of these sightings , and they can be tracked in ebird as well .", "note that we have two ways of tracking spuhs . some are listed with the group name and \" sp . \" but when there are only two members of a species pair are possible , we instead have opted to list these with a slash . for example , we do not use \" murre sp . \" but instead list \" common / thick - billed murre . \" the often - used \" dowitcher sp . \" is instead listed as \" short - billed / long - billed dowitcher . \" other useful listings include : greater / lesser yellowlegs , semipalmated / western sandpiper , and parasitic / pomarine jaeger . we refer to each of these as a slash in our taxonomy .", "you can review the available spuhs by searching for \" sp . \" in the \" find a species \" box and you can review all slash combos by searching for \" / \" .", "in some cases , there are additional bird entities that can ' t be described with a formal scientific name . these may include new species ( or suspected new species ) that birders are already reporting and documenting . since the clements checklist will not add them until the formal description has appeared in a peer - reviewed paper , it can be years ( or decades ) until the species would be available via that list . collecting data on these entities is important , so we include them as a \" form \" , which is a catch - all for additional birds which we want birders to report , but which do not yet have a formal scientific name ( some of them may never have such a name ) . we expect to expand this list in the future to include other yet -

blown orchestra , or standing 15 meters away from a hurtling freight train .", "most lesser water boatman can survive the wintertime , even under a layer of ice : the animals row slowly underneath the ice in search of a trapped air bubble . they replenish their own air supply with the air of such a bubble and dive to the bottom again . this is shown on this composite photo , on the left with a larger bubble , on the right with a small one , there you can see vaguely the bent head . with even lower temeratures , they still can survive : as an extra bonus the ( ice ) cold water contains more oxygen which enhances the gas exchange between the water and their bubbles , which are somehow also larger then normal at these times and furthermore the animals keep still . many migrate to streams that stay open and rest there in masses in the water plants . all lesser water boatman species have turned in the adult animal in the winter , except micronecta .", "this is another type of water boatmen that is lesser water boatmen . these species are mostly seen in the united kingdom . there are yellow lines all over their dark and boat - shaped body . their long thin legs help them to swim , not on their back , on their bellies . unlike the greater water boatmen ( backswimmers ) , they choose to eat plants . besides being under the water surface , they show up at night ; artificial lights seem to fascinate them . they can be seen flying near these places . they need to be on the surface very often to meet their need of air supply underwater . they collect the air in their specific body parts to utilize under the water surface . the term \u2018lesser water boatmen\u2019 is commonly used in the uk for usual water boatmen .", ". if the air in the bubble gets older , the movements intensify , so you will see this behaviour more when the lesser water boatman is under water half an hour or so . when the air supply is used up , the lesser water boatman rows in a flash to the surface , touches the surface with its back , head and body bend , creating a large gap of air between them . less then half a second is sufficient to replenish the air supply and with high speed the bug rows down again . the body is cleaned often and thoroughly with the legs . the insect is able to fly very well and can make a sprint start : swimming quickly upwards it pierces the surface film and takes off immediately - few insect species are able to do this . they mostly fly at dawn and night .", "\" we were very surprised . we first thought that the sound was coming from larger aquatic species such as a sigara species [ of ] lesser water boatmen , \" said engineering expert dr james windmill from the university of strathclyde , glasgow .", "cooking oil can also be used to make the water surface difficult to stay .", "the water boatman , a common water bug , is a member of the \u2018corixidae\u2019 family . the \u2018hemiptera\u2019 order is classified into more than 300 species of the water boatman . they are found in quite a large number all around the globe and are commonly seen in still or running water such as ponds , lakes , rivers , etc . they are supposed to keep their air bubbles filled so that can breathe underwater as they lack gills like other aquatic animals . they are fond of flying in the artificial lights lit up at night near their residence . their eating habits , sometimes , prove to be helpful as they feed on mosquitoes and other dangerous small insects .", "the front legs are short , the foot ( tarsus ) is broadened and equipped with long hairs . with its front legs the lesser water boatman whirls up the garbage layer ( detritus ) on the bottom , while the hairs sieve the material out , which is then brought to the snout in search of nourishment . on the thigh ( femur ) of each front leg the males of some species have short thorns , which where erroneously thought to be used for making sound ( stridulation ) .", ") to their snouts . that is sieved through the hairs on their front legs and thrown backwards in small quantities , while the little head moves up and down in search of eatable particles . see the picture on the left . when the weather gets warmer , the mating rituals begin , with many short flights above the water . one fine day in may i was lying on my back in the sun next to a ditch and then saw one lesser water boatman after another dashing from the \" depths \" , sometimes leaping out of the water ( ! ) , resting for a brief moment on the surface , shining in the sun , to become suddenly airborne . after a short flight they dived back into the water . it really looked like playing . . .", "the have to keep themselves clung to the plants under the water surface to avoid floating .", "the lesser water boatman is totally adapted for a life under water . and that ' s where they live almost their entire life . growing up , eating , mating and laying eggs - it all happens in the fourth element . most of the time corixa rests easy on the bottom with it ' s clawed mid legs , or is anchored to a water plant . sometimes , when the bottom or the water plant isn ' t firm enough , and if the insect is lighter then water it will float up slowly like a balloon , then suddenly it rushes down again in search of a better spot . the body is kept more or less horizontal , a little tilted forward , possibly for the best balance with the upward thrusting bubble of air under the abdomen , which makes most species lighter then water . the hind legs are kept side wards , mostly with a rowing movement every second , as if the balance on the two mid legs just can ' t be reached .", "water boatmen love to fly in the night lights , but these lights do not attract backswimmer . they can also fly but the insects you see near the lights art night are water boatmen .", "the eggs are glued to water plants , mostly not in a layer , but one by one .", "so while an african elephant ' s rumbling call can be 117 decibels , if the trunked beast was reduced to the size of a water boatman , the marine insect would far outclass it . as would , it turns out , a snapping shrimp , a speckled bush cricket , a bronze dainty frog , an alligator and a human .", "if you get pinched in your swimming pool , don\u2019t blame water boatmen for that . they are surely backswimmers .", "more lights near the pool mean more water boatmen . avoid the type of lights that attract the insects more .", "in mexico , people collect the water boatmen eggs to make flour out of it and use as a food item .", "to make this colossal acoustic din , the male water boatman rubs his penis ( or \" genitalia appendage \" ) against the ridged surface of his abdomen , like a wooden spoon against a washboard . size doesn ' t matter for this tiny marine animal , though , as the whole area measures about 50 micrometers across \u2013 roughly the width of a human hair .", "water boatmen are deprived of the ability to thus they are non - predator while backswimmers love to feed on aquatic insects .", "water boatman can be named as the bug with a singing penis because they sing loud by rubbing their penis on their stomach for the purpose of inviting the females for mating . moreover , the term used for it is stridulating . the sound they make is so loud that it is easily audible to the person standing nearby . the frequency of their sound can reach up to 90 decibels . the singing sound is clearly audible out of the water even after losing most of the sound while crossing from water to air . this is surprising that the sound with such high frequency is created by an insect hardly a half inch long .", "the body color of almost a half inch long water boatman is dark brown or black but can be light brown with dark spots , depending on the kind . they make the jerking movements during swimming with their long , hairy and oar - like hind legs . then they have slender middle legs and short front legs that are strong enough to capture the prey . having the triangular mouthparts , their flattened body is elongated and oval shaped . the air bubbles are hidden under their wings , used for the survival under the surface of the water .", "to produce the intense sound , the water boatmen \" stridulate \" by rubbing a ridge on their penis across the ridged surface of their abdomen .", "household swimming pools can contain abundant of water boatmen . now the question is that what they find so appealing in the swimming pools except water ? and the answer is that algae , grown on the walls of swimming pools . not all the insects you find in the pool are water boatmen ; some are backswimmers that may take water boatmen as their food . you can get interrupted by them while enjoying in the pool because of their biting habit , to be saved from them , you need to remove both the species . use the following tricks to get them disappeared from the pool :", "although 99 % of the sound is lost when transferring from water to air , the songs were still loud enough to be audible to the human ear .", "( hygrobia hermannii ) is known for its name giving noises . other water beetles that make creaking sounds when scared are the great silver beetle , the whirligig beetle and", "slow moving streams , lakes , rivers , ponds and the watery places where abundant of aquatic vegetation can be found , are the places where they like to live . their home is on the muddy surfaces deep down in the water near the aquatic plants . these locations can be anywhere in the world regardless the water being fresh or salty .", "water boatmen cannot swim on their back , they use their long rare legs and can only swim on the other hand , backswimmer is named after their ability to swim upside down .", "you get a burning feeling when water boatmen bite . the pinching feel can lead to the swelling of the affected area . these insects are not that harmful those with sensitive skin can get it in severe form .", "most of the water boatmen are non - predatory and are herbivores , but those are also found that hunt mosquito larvae and other aquatic insects . non - predatory water boatmen satisfy their hunger with algae and the plant that are grown underwater . their saliva helps them to extract the juices from the plants by dissolving them which they suck with their sharp mouthparts . they only can take the juices from the plants as they are unable to bite .", ") , so the uncovered top of the abdomen is visible . the first instar larva are heavier than water but have skin breathing so they don ' t need to go up for air . the last instar larva have the breathing habits of the adult . after several moultings the larva has become the adult insect in the autumn , at least if it ' s still alive , for it is good snack for many inhabitants of the water world , for example trouts . many sports fishermen are acquainted with this fact and make", "pour a small amount of liquid dish soap close to the particular light source near the pool and turn all the other outdoor lights off . this method will make difficult for them to stay on the water surface to collect the air to breathe and they will die .", "another fascinating fact about both species is that , despite living in ponds and frequently visiting its depths , they do not have gills and breathe air . in order to stay submerged for longer they have developed a very clever trick \u2013 it\u2019s very similar to how we humans can stay under water . when diving we take our own supply of air with us in a scuba tank . water boatmen can trap air around their bodies and use this to breathe . in fact , the only reason they visit the surface is to top up their air supply .", "both the species may look the same , but they have got distinctive characteristic . they both are aquatic and can be living at the same place ; this is the reason people find it difficult to differentiate and call all of them water boatmen . they are different in so many ways such as :", "\" remarkably , \" said stratchclyde university ' s james windmill in a press release , \" even though 99 percent of sound is lost when transferring from water to air , the song is so loud that a person walking along the bank can actually hear these tiny creatures singing from the bottom of the river . \"", "reproduction experiences the three stages of development . males attract the female by making sounds to mate . they lay eggs after mating that remain attached to the plants or water rocks before they hatch into the nymph . the nymph comes to the surface to fill the air bags . then they undergo gradual molting to become an adult . the process lasts for six weeks . they get their wings in the final stage when they become adults .", "if we specifically talk about the corixidae species , they do not bite . however , there are some lookalike species from a different family that shares basic features with water boatmen and often called with the same name . so , in that case , we can say that they bite . you may encounter them while cleaning up your pool . their bite can be hurting as they release a poisonous substance through the mouth to hunt the prey . so be careful while cleaning the pool from inside .", "html public \" -

establish themselves above the dam and it will allow lake sturgeon access to prime spawning habitat above the dam . information gained in advance of such a major project should help make sure it is designed and operated as effectively as possible .", "in reality , blue was dressed in the fashion of an orderly which consists of scrubs with possibly white loafers and a white coat . in the brothel dream , he sports a moustache and tends to wear fancy suits both on and off stage . at the end , he ' s shown without his orderly coat and with a bandage where babydoll stabbed him , with an obvious bloodstain on his t - shirt .", "blue is one of the most unbalanced people at lennox house . he feels the need to be in control of situations and people at all times \u2014 yet he is unable to control himself : he is calm and smiling one moment , then yelling and violent the next . he frightens all the girls \u2014 even dr . gorski . he is scary enough that even his co - conspirators ( including cj and danforth ) fear disobeying him .", "habitat includes the largest rivers and lower parts of major tributaries . usually this sucker occurs in channels and flowing pools with moderate current ( 1 . 0 - 2 . 6 meters / sec ) . it also occurs in some impoundments . adults probably winter in deep pools . young occupy shallower and less swift water than do adults . adults move upstream to spawn on riffles . in kansas , spawning occurred in deep ( 1 - 2 meters ) riffles with cobble and bedrock substrate ( moss et al . 1983 ) .", "the original meaning of sucker is , in the oed\u2019s definition , \u2018a young mammal before it is weaned ; a child at the breast\u2019 . it\u2019s a small step for it to take on the figurative sense of \u2018a greenhorn , simpleton\u2019 , first recorded in the united states in 1838 . from there it has come to mean someone who is gullible , and , by further extension , someone whose enthusiasm for something is so great that it will persist in the face of all obstacles . it also means , apparently , an inhabitant of the state of illinois .", "a good number of years ago i got into some very nice blue suckers in the st . croix river below taylors falls . i caught a few on a white mr twister in the tailout of a swift deep hole . it is difficult to get to that spot unless the water is low . they jumped as many as five times as they were going away and were quite a load on light tackle ! the others i caught were on leeches off a shelf and they too jumped numerous times . i got some good photos before i released these rare beauties ! this is a great site for under appreciated fish !", "this sucker occupies gulf slope drainages from the sabine river to the rio grande / pecos river drainage , in texas , new mexico , and mexico ; the mississippi river basin north to wisconsin and minnesota ; the missouri river drainage northwestward to the dakotas and montana ; the ohio river drainage eastward to western pennsylvania ( extirpated in pennsylvania ) ( burr and mayden 1999 ) , and the tennessee river basin to eastern tennessee and northern alabama . it is now seemingly common only in the missouri and neosho rivers and middle rio grande ( etnier and starnes 1993 , cross and collins 1995 ) , and in the mississippi river south of the missouri river in missouri ( pflieger 1997 ) . the rio grande population is to be described as a distinct species ( buth and mayden 2001 ) .", "i ' ve researched and even came across other articles / blogs that have a 10 step program on how to get verified on facebook . well , i tried and it didn ' t work . one of those steps even included putting out an ad for 7 days . hmmmmm . . . . well . . . . i tried . still didn ' t work . okay , call me a sucker , but now you don ' t have to waste your money on it , because it doesn ' t work . there are all kinds of hints that say to classify yourself as public figure , but i can ' t say they are helpful as nothing has worked . so in regards to this 10 step program to get verified on facebook , i now need a 12 - step program for recovery .", "catching blue suckers is not particularly problematic - if you can find them . because they can travel hundreds of miles , live in deep , fast water , and their migratory patterns are poorly understood , it is fiendishly difficult to determine when and where they will appear . for the majority of the year , they frequent fast , main - channel areas , preferably with hard bottoms - in particular , wingdam tips , rip - rap areas , and deep , fast runs . unfortunately , this means they are usually going to be found in areas where barges travel , and where it ' s almost impossible to park a boat . because of this , most anglers who pursue this fish resort to chasing after them during their spring spawning run . this is an endeavor which can be either spectacularly successful or dismally unsuccessful , depending on whether you hit the migration right .", "standing in the middle of the electrofishing boat gripping a 10 foot long net handle , trying desperately not to miss blue suckers or sturgeon , i watched literally hundreds upon hundreds of fish surface , some floating still as if dead and others launching themselves out of the water like miniature silver carp . in addition to the sturgeon and blues we were after , there were shorthead , golden and silver redhorses ( and at least one river redhorse ) , quillback ( and possibly some river and / or highfin ) carpsuckers , smallmouth ( and possibly bigmouth and / or black ) buffalo surfacing all around me . there were also a few walleyes , smallmouth bass , mooneyes , and one large , beautiful paddlefish . sometimes there would be a couple dozen fish within a few feet of me\u2014fish i would have had no idea were there in such numbers if i\u2019d been fishing .", "in mississippi river pools 4 and 8 from 1992 - 2015 , 109 of 167 blue suckers were found along main channel borders , while 83 fish exhibited a preference for sites with wing dams . the species was also reported along side - channel borders ( 36 ) , tailwater zones of dams ( 14 ) , impoundments ( 6 ) , and backwaters ( 2 ) . secchi disc readings ( transparency ) ranged from 26 - 137 cm ( 10 . 2 - 53 . 9 in . ) , depths from 0 . 2 - 19 . 0 m ( 0 . 7 - 62 ft . ) ( 154 fish at 3 . 5 m ( 11 . 5 ft . ) or less ) , and velocities from 0 . 0 - 0 . 85 m / s ( 0 . 0 - 2 . 8 ft . / s ) ( ltrmp 2016 ) .", "according to zack snyder , no . rocket , amber and blondie may have been killed off in the brothel fantasy , but nobody died in reality . it ' s left completely open what did happen to them . babydoll says to sweet pea that she is the only one who could have survived outside , meaning that she was actually sane and didn ' t belong in the asylum . however the others were not sane , so babydoll had them killed off to explain why they couldn ' t escape the brothel . notably when discussing babydoll ' s situation with the lobotomy surgeon , dr gorski does not mention anything about patients being killed . likewise , the cook is still seen working in the kitchen , which he most certainly wouldn ' t be if he had actually killed rocket . this implies that the girls are all alive and well , and have a chance at getting better once blue is removed from the hospital .", "a lot of people have taken wiseman and baby doll ' s \" five things \" list to be literal , citing as discrepancies the fact that she needed cloth and liquor to start the fire and a place to do so . the list of five things would seem to refer to items that the girls didn ' t already have . it ' s shown in several scenes that they ' re allowed alcohol in the backstage area ( the girls drinking after getting the lighter ) or else there ' s cleaning fluid in the supply closet\u2014which is bound to be flammable . cloth is easily gotten from the beds . the items baby doll talks about weren ' t available to them : the map in the office , the mayor ' s lighter , the cook ' s knife and the key around blue ' s neck . therefore , they ' re referring only to things for which they ' ll need a diversion ( baby ' s dancing ) to steal .", "in the extended cut , there is an additional scene in between babydoll helping sweet pea escape and her lobotomy . the high roller is revealed to be a nice and caring man who is offering her freedom . he does not want to have her by force , but merely wants to know her . babydoll chooses to give herself to him , and the scene then cuts to the lobotomy . this scene has multiple meanings : first of all , babydoll has spent the entire movie being sexually abused and objectified by the people around her . so this moment is with someone who does not see her as a sex toy , but as a person . she had previously only thought of her sexuality as something disgusting used to pleasure blue and his cronies , or a weapon to use against blue . this scene shows her embracing her sexuality as something beautiful and wonderful\u2014and as a form of love . next , the scene represents that babydoll is actually getting better through dr gorski ' s therapies in the real world . for example , babydoll has been abused and objectified by the men around her . but this scene here shows that she is still able to move past her traumas . in spite of the abuse she suffered in the past , she ' s still able to have such a beautiful and passionate moment . thirdly , the scene shows that a girl ' s sexuality is nothing to be ashamed of\u2014and babydoll takes control of her own sexuality her way , without men dictating it for her . finally , going back to gorski ' s therapies , it ' s implied that she allowed herself to be lobotomised as penance . as she accidentally killed her sister , the lobotomy is her way of making sure she pays for her crime . but through gorski ' s therapies , she comes to realise that the sister ' s death was not her fault and she can again move past her traumas . the fact that she writes herself a happy ending\u2014falling in love with a kind man who wants to give her the best life possible\u2014shows that she has forgiven herself for her crime . essentially the scene is a bit hint that babydoll * will * get better and possibly live a better life ."]}

13 0 c or below , frogs are rarely seen . at water temperatures of 14 0 c and above usually some frogs are found active . active frogs have been found year - round in warm springs in new mexico , but where water temperature varies with ambient air temperature , frogs are most active from april through september . chiricahua leopard frogs are easiest to approach and identify at night with a flashlight or headlamp , but they are active day and night . juveniles are perhaps more active by day , and adults more active at night ( jennings 1988 ) . winter retreats have not been identified ; however , northern leopard frogs are known to overwinter at the bottom of well - oxygenated ponds or lakes , they may dig shallow depressions or bury themselves in mud , and they have been found during the winter in caves ( rand 1950 , emery et al . 1972 , nussbaum et al . 1983 , cunjak 1986 , harding 1997 ) .", "many of arizona\u2019s native frogs , particularly the five species of leopard frogs and the tarahumara frog , might be considered \u201ctypical\u201d stream - dwelling frogs ; never being found too far from permanent water where they lay eggs , develop as tadpoles , and live as adult frogs . but , some of the most astonishing adaptations to desert life are exhibited by a number of frogs and toads that live much of their lives buried underground , only to emerge briefly to breed and grow during the summer rains . this group includes \u201ctypical\u201d toads like the sonoran green toad , couch\u2019s spadefoot , the tiny narrow - mouthed toad , and even a \u201ctrue\u201d treefrog , the lowland burrowing treefrog . perhaps one of the most unusual frogs in arizona is the barking frog , which is found in rocky outcrops where it lays its eggs in relatively dry crevices , and the young develop entirely within the egg and skip the tadpole stage . thus , despite the relatively few species overall , arizona can claim to have a richly diverse amphibian fauna .", "in addition to the 25 species of native amphibians , arizona has become home to four types of exotic amphibians : bullfrogs , rio grande leopard frogs , african clawed frogs and barred tiger salamanders . bullfrogs have become so numerous and widespread that they are now seriously threatening native aquatic wildlife populations , particularly amphibians and reptiles .", "sredl , m . j . , howland , j . m . , wallace , j . e . and saylor , l . s . 1997 . status and distribution of arizona\u2019s native ranid frogs . in : sredl , m . j ( ed . ) , ranid frog conservation and management , pp . 37 -

vegetation , and even in well vegetated ornamental garden ponds . it is suspected that this species requires high water quality for breeding . species in this genus deposit between 20 and 50 eggs on vegetation above water , folded in a grass leaf . tadpoles emerge , drop into the water and remain there until metamorphosis .", "although some known sites are pristine , others are threatened by habitat loss due to urban and recreational development , afforestation , invasive vegetation , agricultural expansion , chemical pollution , and livestock . these threats are likely to negatively

have been seriously degraded to the extent that most of the historic sites no longer are suitable ( l . du preez pers . comm . august 2016 ) . livestock is a huge problem in the covie and especially the crags sites as these sites are used by cattle as drinking holes : this is an intensive milk producing area and the cattle destroy the vegetation these frogs need to breed ( l . du preez pers .

in the need for conservation orientated research within south african threatened frogs ( measey 2 011 ) . in the light that many of the sites are so small , there is a need to take action to preserve these sites ( l . du preez pers . comm . august 2016 ) . control of invasive vegetation is imperative for this species ' survival . research needed the taxonomy of the species complex is in need of comprehensive review ( channing et al . 2011 ) . important questions are still unanswered concerning the call and tadpoles of this species , as well as its breeding phenology . there is a definite

it is also much redder , and the hindwings are more clearly whitish , but these points are quite indefinable , and would not be sufficient for demarcation ; moreover i conceive that the diminished size and the reddish colouring of both larva and imago are the direct effect of the peculiar foodplant . but the antenn\u00e6 of the male are in c . excessana tolerably filiform , the joints hardly dilated , the ciliations not longer than the width of the joints ;

7 inches , with the inside cup 1 - 3 inches across and up to 2 inches deep .", "identifying the male and female house from other carpodacus finches requires care . the male house differs from the male purple finch not only by having a smaller , more curved bill , but also by lacking a distinct eyebrow , having a brown cap and auricular patch , and being heavily streaked on belly . told from male cassin\u2019s finch by brown cap and eyebrow and curved bill . other tell - tale differences between the species include the cassin\u2019s pink cheek and pinkish tone on its back , and on female and immature cassin\u2019s , the much finer and crisp streaks on its belly . the male common rosefinch is more rose - pink overall and lacks distinct streaking on its belly . the female finches are more problematic . the female house has a very plain face , unlike the purple and cassin\u2019s , which both show distinct eyebrows . the female house tends to have browner underparts than the 2 as well , with blurry streaks below . also note the house\u2019s smaller , more curved bill . the female common rosefinch looks similar , but she is drabber , with less distinct streaking below .", "the red or yellow color of a male house finch comes from pigments that it gets in its food during molt . the more pigment in the food , the redder the male . females prefer to mate with the reddest male they can find , perhaps assuring that they get a capable male who can find enough food to feed the nestlings .", "house finches will nest in manmade nest boxes . visit our nest box dimensions chart to find out the correct dimensions for this bird .", "the foregoing statements apply to both sexes and all ages . female or young house finches have brown streakings on a buff background on the breast , cassin ' s has darker brown streaking , or elongated dots , on a white background , and thus appears to be the more distinctly streaked bird . the house finch shows a uniform tone over the whole head ; the cassin ' s shows distinct areas of light and dark . ear , or cheek patches , and malar stripes are darker .", "house finches have benefited greatly from human development . although fairly common throughout the west including oregon when pioneers arrived , they did not move into the willamette valley until the 1940s . house finches introduced to new york city in the 1940s have now spread throughout eastern north america .", "house finches are found in open desert , desert grassland , chaparral , oak savannah , riparian areas , and open coniferous forests in the western united states . in their new range in the eastern united states , house finches are rarely found far from urban and suburban areas .", "house finches are familiar birds of human -

outlier loci using bacterial artificial chromosome libraries [ 26 ] , allowing speculation regarding the phenotypic effects of outlier loci . applying these techniques to the repeated outliers uncovered in this study could result in a fundamental step forward in understanding exactly how hypoplectrus morphotypes differ from each other , potentially identifying regions of the genome under selection . comparative analysis of divergent and non - divergent loci may consequently prove to be informative regarding the history of polymorphism in this genus .", "hypoplectrus chlorurus , h . nigricans , h . puella and h . unicolor each provided suitable sample sizes for repeated outlier analysis . a total of 10 loci were identified using the dfdist method as being potentially under selection between morphotypes at either the 99 % or the 95 % level ( fig . 3 , table 4 ) . the frequency of repeated outliers showed the opposite pattern to that shown by general outlier frequencies , with sympatric morphotype population comparisons producing more repeated outlier loci than allopatric same morphotype comparisons . the numbers of 95sel and 99sel loci were significantly higher than expected under neutral conditions ( both p < 0 . 001 ) . the numbers of 95geo and 99geo loci did not significantly differ from null expectations , however , the relatively small sample sizes for h . puella in these analyses is likely to have reduced the probability of detecting loci in disequilibrium in these comparisons involving this species .", "in this study we use established outlier detection methods to search for molecular signatures of selection on specific loci between interbreeding populations . through analysis of amplified fragment length polymorphisms ( aflps ) we specifically considered whether individual loci are consistently associated with individual morphotypes across different locations . the aflp technique has a specific advantage over mtdna and microsatellite markers that have been so far employed for population genetic analysis of hypoplectrus [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] ; by efficiently producing hundreds of markers , it has higher potential to detect polymorphism across the genome . our study took advantage of this feature to search for direct molecular evidence of selection between hypoplectrus morphotypes across different locations . this approach has an advantage over methods such as bulk segregate analysis or qtl mapping in that it can be applied to samples from natural populations and does not require laboratory breeding , which has so far proven to be unfeasible for these fish [ 7 ] .", "using a genome - wide scanning approach , we found evidence for consistent selection occurring between pairs of h . chlorurus and h . puella , and between h . puella and h . unicolor pairs , despite observing low to moderate overall divergence among colour forms . three aflp loci were identified as being under selection between morphotypes in pair - wise comparisons of sympatric morphotypes at two different locations , using both the dfdist and bayescan methods . these loci represent the first evidence for selection between morphotypes influencing the hypoplectrus genome across sampling locations .", "substantial inter - morphotype gene flow may at first seem to contradict the results of extensive spawning observations , in which only \u223c1 % of matings occurred between different morphotypes [ 7 ] , [ 13 ] . however , even this level of interbreeding could be consistent with our observed f st values given the likely size of the majority of hypoplectrus morphotype global populations . the possibility of infrequent hybridization preventing speciation has been suggested for other systems [ 28 ] , [ 29 ] , [ 30 ] , whereby equilibrium between convergence and divergence is maintained by occasional gene flow .", "hypoplectrus is a genus of small , predatory groupers endemic to the tropical northwest atlantic . it has 16 named \u2018species\u2019 [ 3 ] , [ 39 ] -

wise comparisons included in this analysis were all nine sympatric morphotype comparisons ( excluding morphotype populations with sample sizes of six or fewer individuals ) as well as nine randomly selected allopatric same - morphotype comparisons and nine randomly selected allopatric different - morphotype comparisons . the mean % of outlier loci for each type of morphotype population comparison was compared against neutral expectations .", "the second analytical method we applied to our data was a fully bayesian approach developed by foll & gaggiotti [ 23 ] , which uses the software bayescan ( available at urltoken ) . this method extends the approach developed by beaumont & balding [ 24 ] , in order to allow the use of dominant markers ( such as aflps ) and to rigorously estimate the probability that each specific locus is subject to selection , rather than solely returning the probability of a locus being selectively neutral . to provide an independent test of the repeated outliers detected using dfdist , the same pair - wise comparisons were analysed using bayescan and loci showing probability values higher than 0 . 7 for the likelihood of being under directional selection were noted ( as per [ 23 ] ) . repeated dfdist outliers that the bayescan did not find to be under selection in either comparison are considered to be false positives , those which are found to be under selection in only one comparison may be false positives or , alternatively , may represent local selection that is not consistent across morphotype populations . outliers that are shown in both pair - wise comparisons using both methods are likely to be under selection between morphotypes .", "a total of 528 hamlets were sampled from eight different locations representing five different colour morphotypes , with considerable variation among the numbers of each morphotype found at each location ( table 1 ) . representative images of the morphotypes sampled at each location are presented in figure s1 . a total of 436 scorable aflp loci were produced with an overall repeatability rate of 97 . 1 % ( see table s1 for primer combinations ) . of these , 423 loci were polymorphic , i . e . , they were scored differently in at least one individual .", "global morphotypes ( i . e . all individuals of a given morph collected across all locations ) .", "morphotype populations ( i . e . individuals of a given morph at a given sampling location ) .", "left hand plots represent pairwise comparisons for populations of h . chlorurus and h . puella in curacao and panama . right hand plots represent pairwise comparisons for populations of h . puella and h . unicolor in curacao and panama . \u201csym\u201d refers to sympatric comparisons of the two morphotypes concerned ( followed by the location ) , \u201callo\u201d refers to allopatric comparisons of the two locations concerned ( followed by the morphotype ) . letters refer to loci repeated across sympatric comparisons ( see table 4 for full loci names and further details ) . dashed lines represent the simulated 95 % f st level , dotted lines represent the simulated 99 % f st level . repeated outlier comparisons that did not return any outliers repeated across sympatric comparisons are not shown .", "values that were significantly higher than expected in the absence of selection between colour morphotypes , in pair -

wise comparisons of sympatric morphotype populations produced more outliers than expected under neutral conditions but this difference was not significant . by comparison , analysis of allopatric populations composed of the same two morphotypes did reveal a significantly higher number of 99 % outliers than expected under neutral conditions , although the number of 95 % outliers did not significantly exceed null expectations .", "the hamlet system has attracted considerable attention as a potential case study for speciation in the marine environment . however , the identification of loci specifically associated with certain morphotypes does not necessarily imply that divergence between morphotypes is currently ongoing . an alternative explanation for these results is that assortative mating , linked to the simultaneous hermaphroditism in these fish [ 8 ] , is maintaining divergence between morphotypes but inter - morphotype reproductive isolation is not fully complete and some successful interbreeding between morphotypes is limiting further divergence . gene flow between morphotypes would also explain the lack of association between mitochondrial sequence haplotypes and morphotypes shown in other studies [ 11 ] , [ 14 ] , [ 27 ] .", "we would like to thank terry burke , andy krupa , raj whitlock and all at the sheffield molecular genetics facility ( smgf ) , who provided first rate advice and facilities for a large part of the aflp work . we would also like to thank oscar puebla and dr e bermingham for their help in the field and for agreeing to review an early draft of this manuscript . we thank dr e whiteman and the staff at magueyes laboratories ( puerto rico ) , carmabi ( cura\u00e7ao ) , the national aquarium ( dominican republic ) , centre of ecology & fisheries ( mexico ) and b . b . s . r .

way across the sahara . these occur mostly from october to april . average annual rainfall varies from 50 mm in the south to 100 mm in the north , although there may be years where there is no rain at all ( especially in the southern parts of the ecoregion ) . the highest temperature ranges between 40 and 45\u00b0c , creating evaporation that far exceeds the amount that falls as rain .", "the extreme climate and varied geomorphologic conditions have assisted , nevertheless , to develop a significant diversity of landscapes and habitats adapted to drought . the ecoregion contains a number of geomorphologic features with different origins :", "human populations are concentrated around water sources in oases that are characterized by particular models of water use ( as foggaras ) , and palm agriculture ( 940 varieties have been listed in algeria ) . livestock is complementary to agriculture ( e . g . camels , sheep \" daman race \" , and goats ) . over recent decades the population has expanded greatly in the area . now , some of the oases support moderate sized towns that are involved with oil exploration and production . these areas may also support tourist industries .", "current status the habitat is largely intact in drier areas , but can be quite badly degraded close to the coast or where there is higher rainfall and more grazing animals . however , the ecoregion is extensive , with habitat in good condition over vast areas .", "the ecoregion is poorly protected officially , with one protected area in mauritania ( iriki permanent hunting reserve , 100 km2 ) . one other area in algeria ( taghit ) is proposed to be classified as a nature reserve , but the area is not yet delineated . there are also two national parks in tunisia : jebil national park created in 1993 ( 1 , 500 km2 ) and the sidi toui national park created in 1993 ( 63 km2 ) ( chaieb and boukhris 1998 ) .", "recently undp / gef approved a 3 -

down .", "taxonomic relationships within the family are contested . the large bustards are grouped in otis , neotis , and ardeotis , and these are possibly related to the smaller chlamydotis and tetrax . diminutive tetrax , long combined with the far larger otis by taxonomists , might be related to sypheotides , to which it more closely equates in terms of size , flight - feather modification , and display . some recent appraisals combine 14 relatively small species within the genus eupodotis , but an alternative treatment retains only five species in this grouping , separating the remainder into afrotis , lissotis , lophotis , houbaropsis , and sypheotides .", "bustards are omnivorous and opportunistic . most species have a diet predominately of vegetable matter . they eat fresh shoots , flowers , and leaves of herbaceous plants ; excavate for soft roots and bulbs ; and take fruit and seeds when available . in cultivated areas they consume a variety of crops . insects are also an important food , at least seasonally . the timing of breeding tends to synchronize chick emergence with maximum insect abundance . although beetles and grasshoppers are the main invertebrate prey items , many other arthropods", "are taken if available . bustards also consume small vertebrates such as reptiles and rodents , particularly those killed or injured in bush fires or traffic . bustards can thrive without water for long periods , but drink freely when water is available .", "the breeding season tends to coincide with periods of high rainfall . at its outset , males of many species perform magnificent displays , often from traditionally favored locations . in general , pair bonds between male and female bustards appear to be absent , as females visit displaying males and then leave to incubate the eggs and raise the chicks alone . sexual maturation is slowest and sexual dimorphism most pronounced in species with dispersed leks or solitary territorial males : males take up to six years to reach full size and possess plumage ornamentation absent in females .", "although small numbers of each of these species breed and survive within protected areas , their future hangs in the balance . in general , bustards are at greater risk than many animals because populations in all but the very largest reserves are not viable . low population densities , and their nomadic or migratory lifestyles , mean that current protected area networks do not comfortably meet their needs .", "male : 41 in ( 105 cm ) , 13\u201340 lb ( 5 . 8\u201318 kg ) ; female : 30 in ( 75 cm ) , 7\u201312 lb ( 3 . 3\u20135 . 3 kg ) . back and tail barred black and gold ; white underneath . female and nonbreeding male head and neck are pale blue -

all remaining genera are recovered as valid and monophyletic . the general relationships between mochokid genera are illustrated in the phylogeny below .", "even more peculiar is the habit of some species of synodontis that are known to swim upside - down . this habit seems to be correlated with feeding while upside - down at the water\u2019s surface ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1965b ) , but upside - down catfishes will rest and swim in the inverted position on a regular basis . chapman et al . ( 1994 ) showed that an upside - down posture near the surface also facilitates respiration in poorly oxygenated water . while the genus synodontis presents the most well - known species with their fascinating behaviors and natural histories , the family is actually much more interesting when taken as a whole .", "beyond information gleaned from captive breeding of certain species of synodontis , very little is known about reproduction in mochokids . the best studied mochokids in this regard are most likely nile river synodontis ( including s . membranacea and s . batensoda , previously placed in other genera ) . still , details are limited ; the studies indicate that spawning occurs from july to october , which coincides with the flooding season , and that pairs swim in unison during spawning bouts ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1968 ) . the most interesting and detailed information on mochokid reproduction relates to a species from lake tanganyika , synodontis multipunctatus , which is a brood parasite of mouth brooding cichlids such as simochromis and haplochromis ( sato , 1986 ; wisenden , 1999 ) . adults of this species spawn in the midst of spawning cichlids and the fertilized catfish eggs are taken into the mouth of a cichlid . the catfish eggs hatch first and will eat the host eggs before they leave the host mouth . most amazingly , this species has been able to parasitize mouth brooding cichlids from south america in captivity ( loiselle , 1998 ) .", "based largely on coloration and pattern some scientists and aquarists have recognized \u2018species flocks\u2019 of synodontis . the largest and most visually impressive of these is the lake tanganyika synodontis species flock . the flock consists of at least six species , all endemic to the lake , that show amazingly similar coloration and patterning . recent work suggests that this \u2018flock\u2019 is not monophyletic and that the biogeographic scenario is more complicated than a simple radiation after lake formation ( day & wilkinson , 2006 ; koblmuller et al . , 2006 ) . regardless , in this group of species , the nearly constant color pattern consists of a light brown base color and darker brown polka - dots . it is made more impressive by the fins , which have dark brown membranes basally and stark white trailing edges . the cryptic nature of lake tanganyika synodontis has led to an underestimate of the actual number of species present ( wright & page , 2006 ) ; three new species were described and two others were resurrected in that work . there are several other smaller flocks with their own unique patterns and pigmentation outside of the lake , and cryptic species probably exist for these as well .", "the testicular and ovarian cycle of synodontis schall in this investigation can be divided into five stages - immature , recovery , maturing , ripe and spawning . all the gonad stages showed visible morphological and histological changes during development . these changes , which occurred during the maturation processes , conformed to the general pattern of development of the gonads in most teleosts [ 18 , 19 , 20 ] .", "dorsal view of heads illustrating sexual dimorphism of the opercular spine in synodontis acanthoperca : a . cu 89005 , male holotype , 44 . 1 mm sl ; b . cu 89006 , female paratype , 40 . 4 mm sl . the pectoral spines in both specimens have been removed from the images to make the margins of the head more distinct against the background . scale bar equals 1 mm . \u00a9", "little is known about the ecology of most mochokids . what is known pertains mostly to diet and is biased towards species of synodontis . stomach contents from synodontis have included insects , nematodes , crustaceans , mollusks , annelids , seeds , algae , diatoms , fish scales and , incidentally , sand ( bishai & abu gideiri , 1965a ; bishai & abu gideiri , 1965b ; winemiller & kelso - winemiller , 1996 ; sanyanga , 1998 ) . from observations of stomach contents , the diet of most mochokids is probably very similar ; that is , they are omnivores . for some of the larger sucker - mouthed species ( i . e . , atopochilus and euchilichthys ) the stomach contents contain a high proportion of silt , algae and detritus . for these taxa it seems likely that scraping or grazing is the predominant method of feeding .", "in addition to being numerous and widespread on the african continent , the mochokidae are actually quite diverse in terms of morphology . mochokids are small to medium sized catfishes , ranging from less than 40 mm sl as an adult in certain species of chiloglanis and microsynodontis , up to a reported 800 mm sl in some species of synodontis . most of the larger species are in the genus synodontis ; still , the majority of those are less than 300 mm sl . the morphology of mochokids is notably diverse aside from size as well ; the size and shape of the mouth and the shape of the body are notable examples . most mochokids exhibit a ventrally directed mouth , with papillose lips and , more often than not , branched mandibular barbels ( e . g . , most synodontis ) . species exhibiting this type of mouth are quite often deep bodied and somewhat triangular in lateral view , their greatest depth being at the base of the dorsal spine . yet others with this same type of mouth tend to be more cylindrical along their entire length ( microsynodontis and few synodontis ) . species of chiloglanis , atopodontus , atopochilus and euchilichthys exhibit a ventrally directed mouth , but it is formed as a sucker - like oral disc , wherein the lower lip is greatly expanded and incorporates the mandibular barbels . here , the body shape tends to be quite cylindrical or depressed and the head is quite often greatly depressed . some mochokids do not possess a ventrally directed mouth . mochokiella paynei , acanthocleithron chapini and members of the genus mochokus have mouths that are only slightly subterminal ; while the mandibular barbels are still branched , the lips are not nearly as fleshy . here , again , the body shape tends to be relatively cylindrical .", "figure 2 : photomicrographs showing changes in testes of synodontis schall ( a & b ) transverse section of the immature and maturing testes showing spermatogonia ( sp ) and clusters of primary and secondary spermatocytes ( ps & ss ) with a few spermatids ( s ) .

shaped teeth in the upper jaw are short . s - shaped and movable in the lower jaw . these fish produce audible sounds when disturbed rubbing the base of the pectoral spine against the pectoral girdle . a nondescript but fairly common import .", "pigmentation and patterning of mochokid skin is also diverse . mochokids are popular in the pet trade because they have showy colors , sharply contrasting patterns like stripes and polka - dots and , quite often , extravagant fins . as some of the largest and most active mochokids , species of synodontis display an amazing array of patterns and pigmentation that may , in some cases , serve as visual cues to conspecifics . it might also be true that the bright , contrasting coloration found in some species serves as a warning to predators . like many catfishes , some mochokids possess specialized poison glands for delivering offensive chemicals along with a \u2018stick\u2019 by the pectoral spine ; anecdotal accounts indicate that these wounds can be very painful . however , field studies that might demonstrate function of these varied patterns have not been done .", "all species in the genus synodontis have a hardened head cap that has attached a process ( humeral process ) which is situated behind the gill opening and pointed towards the posterior . the dorsal fin and pectoral fins have a hardened first ray which is serrated . caudal fin is always forked . there is one pair of maxillary barbels , sometimes having membranes and occasionally branched . the two pairs of mandibular barbels are often branched and can have nodes attached . the cone - shaped teeth in the upper jaw are short . s - shaped and movable in the lower jaw . these fish produce audible sounds when disturbed rubbing the base of the pectoral spine against the pectoral girdle . juvenile colouration is quite different from that of the adult . the change begins when the fish reach about 40mm and gradually continues until they pass the 100mm mark .", "many mochokid species exhibit obvious sexual dimorphism . for example , many species in the genus chiloglanis show dimorphism of the caudal and anal fins ( roberts , 1989 ; seegers , 1996 ; friel & vigliotta , 2006 ) ; some chiloglanis also display sexual dimorphism of the cleithral process , wherein males possess a greatly enlarged process shielding the flank . in the closely related genus atopochilus , sexual dimorphism of the anal fin is sometimes evident . some mochokids exhibit spiny ornamentation of the skull roof bones , opercular series and pectoral girdle ( friel & vigliotta , 2006 ) . in the case of synodontis acanthoperca , a spine found at the rear of the opercle is , itself , sexually dimorphic . the spines of males are much larger than those of females . this is also true for mochokiella paynei ( personal observation ) , which was previously unknown to possess opercular spines or exhibit sexual dimorphism .", "in the juvenile stage , the ovary consists of very small spherical oogonia and a few primary oocytes , constituting the first growth phase or previtellogenesis . the recovery and maturing stages constitute the second growth phase or vitellogenesis ; which is characterised by rapid growth . during this period oocytes increase rapidly in size due to accumulation of yolk materials in the oocytes cytoplasm . next is the ripe and spawning stages which consist mainly of secondary vitellogenic and post - vitellogenic oocytes . this is the period of oocyte maturation , when oocytes had accumulated enough yolk , become matured and ripe and ready for ovulation and spawning . similar observations were reported for synodontis schall from asa lake , ilorin [ 10 ] , african lungfish ( protopterus annectens ) from river niger [ 21 ] and tilapia mariae and chromidotilapia guentheri from jamieson river [ 22 , 23 ] . however , araoye , who worked on same species as in the present study , only examined the morphological features of the gonads [ 10 ] . the use of histological descriptions is important in clearly separating the different maturity stages and enables one to access correctly the level of reproductive activity ( fertility ) of a measured fish specimen .", "absolute fecundity of s . schall ranged from 1530 to 13 , 965 eggs with a mean of 6080 eggs . the estimate of fecundity in the present study was much lower than the estimates reported for same species ( 10 , 000 - 90 , 000 eggs ) [ 9 ] and ( 7910 to 64 , 450 eggs ) [ 10 ] . although , the ovary weights of the specimens ( 6 . 30 - 43 . 75g ) from asa lake were observed to be larger in size than those of the present study ( 2 . 30 - 28 . 41gm ) . however , similar fecundity estimates were reported for s . batensoda ( 6850 - 20 , 400 eggs ) and s . nigrita ( 952 - 11 , 400 eggs ) from lake kainji [ 26 ] . the change in fecundity estimation could be due to different environmental conditions in which these different populations live . in general , compared to most freshwater fishes , willoughby , noted that members of - the genus synodontis have always exhibited high fecundity and this can be attributed to the small size of their eggs [ 26 ] . according to olatunde , high fecundity is an advantage because of the continued existence of fish which depends on the number of eggs hatched and their survival to adult stage [ 4 ] .", "400mm or 15 . 7 \" sl . find near , nearer or same sized spp .", "first lay the fish in your hand with its head toward your palm and the tail toward your fingers . hold the dorsal spine between your middle and ring finger so the fish is belly up and you won ' t get stuck ( which by the way , hurts like crazy ! ) . the genital pore is in a small furrow of tissue ( in healthy fish ) and will be obstructed by the pelvic fins . pull down on the tail gently to arch the fishes spine and the pelvic fins will stand and the furrow open to display the genital pore and the anus of the fish . the male has a somewhat ridged genital papillae on which the spermatoduct is on the back side , facing the tail fin . a gravid female will also show an extended papillae but the oviduct is on the ventral side of the papillae ( and may also show a little redness if really gravid ) . a thin or emaciated female will have just two pink pores , the oviduct and the anus .", "africa : niger and ou\u00e9m\u00e9 rivers , nokoue lake . also known from the b\u00e9nou\u00e9 .", "sinking catfish pellets are taken , frozen foods such as bloodworm and brineshrimp are eagerly devoured , will also take algae wafers and most other commercially prepared foods .", "a sandy substrate is best but a smooth rounded gravel will suffice . prefers wood to stone . must have its own hideaway in the form of a cave or pipe .", "more suited to the larger community . as with many other catfish species it will eat what it can fit into its mouth so no small tetras .", "does well with larger barbs ( such as tinfoil and lemon barbs ) . will tolerate other catfish so long as they are no competition . a good fish for the larger cichlid aquarium .", "catalogue of the fresh -

[ 10 ]", "the horse has three basic muscle fiber types : type 1 , type 2a , and type 2b . these fibers have different contractile rates and metabolic energy characteristics . type 1 fibers , also known as \u201cslow twitch\u201d or \u201cred fibers\u201d and have high oxidative capacity and are resistant to fatigue in part related to their high density of mitochondria which can utilize fuels aerobically and have the highest oxidative capacity . mitocondria are the small organelles in the muscle cells that convert fuels ( fats and glycogen ) into atp . they have the highest lipid stores , highest densities of capillaries , and the lowest glycogen stores . they have the lowest glycolytic enzyme capacity of the three fiber types . type 2a are the \u201cintermediate fibers\u201d in terms of both contractile speed and metabolic properties between type 1 and type 2b . these fibers are aerobic , but also use a combination of glycogen and fat for energy generation . the thoroughbred has a high percentage of these \u201cintermediate\u201d fast twitch oxidative fibers that can produce speed and still utilize large amounts of oxygen and resist fatigue . type 2b \u201cfast twitch\u201d fibers have the fastest contractile speed , the largest cross - sectional area , the highest glycogen stores and glycolic capacity . they are ideally suited to short fast bursts of power . they have a low aerobic capacity and tend to depend on anaerobic glycolysis for energy generation . genetics determine muscle type and composition and is 95 % inheritable in humans , and is thought to be highly inheritable in horses ( snow and guy ) . in evaluating the fiber type distribution in a number of breeds of horses , heavy hunters had a very large proportion of type 1 fibers , while thoroughbreds and quarter horses had few type 1 fibers and a large number of the faster contracting 2a and 2b types . the percentage of each fiber type that a particular breed has in its muscle depends on the type of performance the breed is selected . thoroughbreds have the highest number of the highly aerobic 2a fibers , illustrating the importance of oxygen utilizing pathways in the thoroughbred racehorse . researchers also found that thoroughbred stayers have a high number of type 1 fibers than either sprinters or middle distance horses . unfortunately , within a breed , the spread in fiber type distribution is so small that fiber typing as a predictor of performance is probably of limited value . muscle strength , size and shape can be predictive of muscle fiber ratios . although each muscle may have a fiber type mix , generally a higher percentage of the \u201cfast twitch\u201d ( type 2 ) fibers are found in the horse\u2019s hindquarters providing power , whereas the \u201cslow twitch\u201d ( type 1 ) are found in the forelimbs providing stride , rhythm and a weight bearing role .", "rose grower and exam cheat who almost roasted the queen mother ; part three of our series celebrating henry cecil features an a - z guide by steve dennis , telling you everything you need to know about the racing legend . - free online library", "rose grower and exam cheat who almost roasted the queen mother ; part three of our series celebrating henry cecil features an a - z guide by steve dennis , telling you everything you need to know about the racing legend .", "mla style : \" rose grower and exam cheat who almost roasted the queen mother ; part three of our series celebrating henry cecil features an a - z guide by steve dennis , telling you everything you need to know about the racing legend . . \" the free library . 2010 mgn ltd 09 jul . 2018 urltoken", "chicago style : the free library . s . v . rose grower and exam cheat who almost roasted the queen mother ; part three of our series celebrating henry cecil features an a - z guide by steve dennis , telling you everything you need to know about the racing legend . . \" retrieved jul 09 2018 from urltoken", "apa style : rose grower and exam cheat who almost roasted the queen mother ; part three of our series celebrating henry cecil features an a - z guide by steve dennis , telling you everything you need to know about the racing legend . .

ices 2007a , b ) . they all indicate that , from the estimates of 0 - group cod and haddock recorded in 2005 and 1 - group cod and haddock recorded in 2006 , the 2005 year - class abundance was higher in the north sea , particularly in the central and northern part , than recent low levels ( for haddock about tenfold higher than the average for the 2001\u20132004 year classes ) . ibts data showed the highest numbers of 0 - group cod in quarter 3 ( july\u2013september ) in 2005 since 1998 , and the highest numbers of 1 - group cod in quarter 1 ( january\u2013march ) in 2006 since 2002 . scogfs and enggfs data showed the highest numbers of 1 - group cod in quarter 3 in 2006 since 2000 and 1998 , respectively . according to the ibts dataset , haddock had a moderate 0 - group year class in quarter 3 in 2005 ( compared with the high 0 - group class abundance in 1999 ) , comparable in size to the 2000 year class , and consistently large numbers of 1 - group haddock were sampled in quarter 1 ( january\u2013march ) in 2006 . no notable differences in abundance between the years were recorded in ibts , scogfs , or enggfs data for whiting .", "marine ;

water species that are occasionally seen in puget sound and also occur in deep water off the coast are the box crab and its close relative the king crab . the latter is called the king crab because of its large size when fully grown ( up to 10 inches wide ) but is not to be confused with the commercial king crab of alaska . these crabs are more apt to be seen by divers than fishers with pots . both are covered with wart - like tubercles and spines and resemble a rough box when their legs and claws are folded against the body . the box crab gets its name from the opening or foramen formed from matching semicircular notches in the claws and first walking legs . when the legs are folded tightly , water enters the gill cavity through this round opening . in the king crab this opening is absent .", "box crabs are a species of king crab and have sizable legs with large chunks of meat . brown box crabs are able to fold their legs in close to their body , in an almost perfect fit , leading to their common name . they also have a unique circular opening in their claws that may help them feed . the box crab is found from the coast of alaska down to san diego but is not widely marketed in southern california . since we have been visiting the fish market , box crabs have been a staple and should be available year round in san diego . the crabs available at the market were caught by trap off of the channel islands . we ended up buying two spider crabs for dinner . as soon as we got home from the market , we threw the crabs in the freezer for a humane numbing before their steam bath . our crabs averaged just under three pounds each , so after a twenty - two minute steam - eight minutes per pound ( average weight of each crab ) - and a quick cool down , ingrid got down to picking the meat .", "one of the most popular items on washington seafood menus is the dungeness crab . this hardshelled crustacean is fished from the aleutian islands to mexico . the shell is purple - tinged , gray or brown on the back and the tips of the claws are typically white . the dungeness crab can reach ten inches across the back though six to seven inches is more common . in puget sound this crab is most abundant north of seattle , in hood canal , and near the pacific coast . the dungeness crab is frequently associated with eelgrass beds and prefers sandy or muddy substrates .", "the brown box crab , lopholithodes foraminatus , like the red king crab , is in the family lithodidae . kodiak island , alaska is the northern extent of its range which extends south to san diego , california . their preferred habitat is mud bottom or on vertical rock faces above the mud , from low intertidal to 600 m . carapace length is to about 150 mm ( 6 inches ) . they feed on bivalves and organic debris and often bury in the mud . while buried , two circular foramins or holes ( partially visible above ) in the claws allow for water circulation to the gills .", "another species similar to , but smaller than the dungeness , is the red rock crab ( aka red crab , rock crab ) . this species usually measures less than six inches across the back and is characterized by large claws . despite being less meaty than the dungeness , red rock crab meat is also very tasty . where present in considerable abundance , the red rock crab is a serious predator on both oysters and hard - shell clams . in some areas , controls have been necessary to prevent undue damage to clam and oyster crops . it can be distinguished from the dungeness by the presence of black on the tips of its claws and by its red coloration . the red rock crab also prefers rocky substrates , as the name implies .", "it took about a half hour for ingrid to pick the two crabs - again , ingrid is an expert crab picker - and we came away with a pound and a half of meat , which put us at just under $ 30 per pound for actual meat . the cooked meat , without accoutrement , is sweet and satisfying - on par with alaskan king crab . adding old bay seasoning ( a maryland blue crab tradition ) , butter , and / or lemon , provided a little variety to the tasting . old bay and butter was my preferred preparation . picking the meat was fairly comparable to picking alaskan king crab legs , though with a few more sharp spines to watch out for . all in all , our first few experiences with box crabs have been amazing . i am at a loss as to why these crabs are not more widely available in grocery stores , which seem to only have king crab legs and snow crab legs shipped in from afar . abundant , relatively easy to catch ( so we are told ) , tasty , and easy to pick .", "in addition to cannibalistic members of their own species , dungeness crab are preyed upon a variety of fishes including halibut , dogfish , hake , lingcod , great marbled sculpin , and wolf eel . the dungeness crab is also a favorite food of the octopus . human endeavors , such as gillnetting for salmon , otter trawling for bottomfish , and dredging to maintain ship channels , all take their toll on dungeness crab .", "before a crab sheds its aging shell a flexible new shell forms under the old covering . the old shell splits across the rear along what is known as the splitting or suture line and this allows the new - shelled crab to back out of the old shell . even the coverings of the eye stalks and gills remain with the old shell . on emergence of the new - shelled crab , the tissues are saturated with water and expand the new shell to a larger size . at this stage , the soft - shelled crabs are readily susceptible to predators such as fish and other crabs , especially when confined in a pot . if you find these crab in your pot , please handle them with care . for a couple of days the survival of a new - shelled crab relies on its ability to remain well hidden or buried in the sand . within a few days , the soft - shell crab becomes an active , ravenous feeder . it takes about two months , however , for a soft - shelled crab to fill with meat and become a prime quality , hard - shelled crab .", "shells shedded by crab may wash in on beaches in large numbers and become the basis for false reports of dead crabs . in still or quiet waters the back of the shell that lifted during molting to let the soft crab out will drop back into position causing the crab to appear whole and dead . in most cases , molted shells break into several pieces before washing ashore and only a few legs or the top of the shell may be found .", "several species of crab are found in washington ' s marine waters and along its shores , though only a few are large enough to be of commercial and sport interest . crabs are crustaceans , having an exterior skeleton or shell . two crab species ( dungeness and red rock ) are harvested locally . crabs are most commonly harvested with crab pots but are also caught using ring nets , dip nets , and by wading in shallow water during spring and early summer .", "mating occurs between hard - shelled male crabs and newly molted , soft - shelled female crabs . take care not to disturb these clasping crab when fishing intertidally . the female crab stores the sperm in a seminal receptacle . because the female loses the sperm receptacle during growth molts , she cannot molt at the same time the male molts .", "the eggs are fertilized when they are laid or extruded to become attached to the abdomen of the female . the mass of eggs carried by the female is frequently called the sponge . when first laid , eggs are bright orange in color . females in this condition are commonly found buried in the sand or subtidal bottoms . large females may carry in excess of 2\u00bd million eggs . as the embryos develop the eggs darken to a dirty brown and eventually hatch , producing larval crabs . in no way resembling an adult crab at first , the larvae swim freely in the sea and progress through a series of molts in which their appearance changes considerably . dense swarms of crab larvae are often seen in the water and are fed on extensively by other marine organisms , including salmon . after developing into the adult shape and at about a quarter of an inch in width , approximately 12 months after mating , juvenile crab take up residence on the ocean bottom . large numbers of young crabs are found in estuaries where they can tolerate dilutions of two parts fresh water to one part ocean water . the grays harbor and willapa bay estuaries are considered unique nursery areas for dungeness crab and certain fishes , such as english sole , with which they share the bottom environment .", ". children find it especially fun to watch these crabs crawl and feed in tide pools . another popular denizen of rocky shores is the hermit crab , characterized by its tendency to use the empty shells of other intertidal creatures as its home .", "the examination of stomach contents of dungeness crabs has shown that they feed on a variety of marine forms . stomachs of ocean crabs most commonly contain hardshell and / or razor clam , fish , and crabs . they may also contain material such as sea stars , worms , squid , snails , and eggs that were originally consumed by their fish or crab prey . stomach contents obtained in the wild confirm the cannibalistic nature of dungeness crabs and predation on newly molted crabs by fellow aquarium residents creates problems in laboratory studies . contrary to general belief , laboratory observations and stomach samples indicate that dungeness crab will not consume decayed or rotten food .", "because crabs are enclosed in a rigid exterior skeleton they must shed their shell to grow . this molting takes place about seven times during the first year of life and at a decelerating rate there after . an average size of 1\u00be inches across the back is reached one year after the crab takes up bottom life . during a molt , the male crab will gain about 65 % in weight . after the second year most crabs are sexually mature and a difference in the rate of growth appears between males and females . females grow slower and only a small percentage attain a size greater than 6\u00bc inches across the back , despite complete protection from fishing pressure .", "tagging studies have shown that the loss of legs reduces the chances of survival , but crabs do have the power to regenerate missing appendages . complete regeneration requires two or three molts , which explains the occurrence of small , misshapen claws or legs . during the early part of life , lost claws or legs are quickly replaced because of frequent molting , but the same loss to an older crab could take years to replace .", "html public \" -

specific ( thomassen and povel , 2006 ) and may serve equally well or better for this and other purposes . on a similar note , the morphological asymmetry of the oilbird syrinx may allow for individual recognition during vocal communication . individual differences in vocal tract asymmetry have been suggested as a means for oilbirds to distinguish echoes originating from their own echolocation signals from those clicks and echoes originating from their roostmates ( suthers and hector , 1988 ) .", "whether single and double clicks serve specific , even separate functions that are correlated to certain behaviors is also unknown , as is whether swiftlets can actively control which type is emitted . interestingly , although assumed to echolocate , we are unaware of scientific accounts of echolocation in the polynesian swiftlet , a . leucophaeus , at the far eastern geographic distribution of swiftlets . a . leucophaeus is missing from recent attempts to resolve the controversial swiftlet phylogeny but ostensibly includes three subspecies found on tahiti , mo ' orea , and the marquesas in french polynesia ( chantler et al . , 1999 ) . more knowledge about the genetic relationship between a . leucophaeus and the geographically close single click emitter a . sawtelli , along with information about the nature of a . leucophaeus echolocation clicks , could help elucidate why some swiftlets only emit single clicks and possibly the underlying functional reasons for the use of single and double clicks .", "the bird nest business is flourishing in urban areas along the sarawak coast . success in this business , which involves gathering the nests of cave swiftlets , a type of swiftlet , for sale ( see photograph 1 ) , depends on being able to gather as many large nests as possible . to that end , people build structures that provide an environment that facilitates nest -

coles et al . , 1987 ) or their nests ( signe brinkl\u00f8v , pers . obs . of a . unicolor in railway tunnels ) . fullard et al . ( 1993 ) found that birds emitted higher repetition rates when entering caves than when exiting caves or flying from closed to more open space . meanwhile , no context - dependent changes were found in signal frequency ( fullard et al . , 1993 ) , as compared to the adaptive , context - dependent changes in signal frequency found in many laryngeal echolocating bats .", "with these caveats in mind , phonation ( clicks and other acoustic signals ) in both groups is driven by subsyringeal pressure , initiated during expiration , and controlled by two antagonistic muscle pairs . contraction of an extrinsic muscle pair ( mm . sternotrachealis ) folds the external tympaniform membranes into the syrinx ( or the two half - syringes in oilbirds ) lumen toward the internal tympaniform membranes . the membranes are then set into vibration by the expiratory airflow . in oilbirds , clicks are actively terminated by contraction of the single pair of intrinsic syringeal muscles ( mm . broncholateralis ) . in contrast , the social vocalizations of oilbirds are terminated passively by relaxation of the sternotrachealis muscles ( suthers and hector , 1985 ) . swiftlets lack intrinsic syringeal muscles and terminate their clicks by contraction of extrinsic tracheolateralis muscles ( suthers and hector , 1982 ; thomassen , 2005 ) . most species of echolocating swiftlet produce single clicks as well as double clicks ( two single clicks in quick succession , as described below ) . the pause between two clicks within a click - pair may be caused by a brief blocking of airflow through the syrinx as the external and internal tympaniform membranes touch . single clicks appear to arise when the membranes are pulled together before the expiratory airflow generates enough pressure to initiate vibration of the membranes ( suthers and hector , 1982 ) . both sides of the swiftlet syrinx appear able to contribute to each member of a click - pair ; that is , birds can still emit double clicks even if one side of the syrinx is plugged ( suthers and hector , 1982 ) .", "the exterior dimensions of this bird house ( see figure 1 ) are 720 ( w ) \u00d71 , 800 ( d ) \u00d7 705 ( h ) centimeters . there are 24 air holes each on the eastern and western sides of the structure , to which pvc tubes are attached . there is an entrance for the swiftlet on the top of the northern side of the house . this entrance measures 60 ( h ) \u00d7 90 ( w ) centimeters . after comparing the size of this house\u2019s entrance with other bird house , i found that this house has a somewhat large entrance . there are entrances to provide access for human workers to the small rooms on the south and east sides of the house . there is a control room containing audio equipment on the southern side of the house .", "swiftlet clicks appear to have most energy over a 1\u201310 khz frequency range . based on rule of thumb calculations , the birds should only detect objects \u226534 mm diameter , but can apparently detect objects as small as 6 . 3 mm diameter ( metal rods ) at levels above chance ( griffin and suthers , 1970 ; griffin and thompson , 1982 ) . corroborating this , smyth and roberts ( 1983 ) reported a detection threshold of 10\u201320 mm , while fenton ( 1975 ) found that a . hirundinacea detected vertical rods down to 10 mm diameter and potentially even smaller . these data suggest that swiftlets receive useful echo information via the higher frequency portions of their clicks , even though these components contain less energy . however , for this to be plausible the birds must hear , at least to some extent , higher frequencies . this is not supported by data from single neuron recordings from the midbrain auditory nucleus of collocalia spodiopygia , which indicate best frequency thresholds from 0 . 8 to 4 . 7 khz ( coles et al . , 1987 ) .", "major efforts are now being made to reverse the trend . the government , quite sensibly , has recognised that it would be unfair , and near - impossible , to simply ban outright the centuries - old and extremely lucrative nest - collection ( it would just push it ' underground ' - so to speak ) . so the government is making efforts to work with all stakeholders in the niah region , to try to ensure the sustainability of the practice , and to reduce other external pressures on the populations . several large community and stakeholder meetings have now been held at niah ( ' the niah gatherings ' ) , to develop measures which include , and are acceptable to , all stakeholders . such measures have included closed seasons on nest collecting , to allow undisturbed nest re - building . initial signs are that the agreed processes may be starting to work , with swiftlet numbers slightly increasing in recent years . however , it will still be a long and difficult process .

among congeners , t . novaehollandiae is exceeded in size perhaps by only tyto tenebricosa of new guinea , japen , and australia ( 32 ) . in papua new guinea today , t . novaehollandiae occurs only in lowland forests and savannas of the southern fly river region and on manus island . a large species of tyto also has been recorded from an archaeological site on mussau ( 33 ) . at one time , t . novaehollandiae may have inhabited much of the bismarck archipelago .", "the humerus and tibiotarsus of corvus sp . are larger than in corvus orru , the only corvid on new ireland . specimens of corvus meeki ( bougainville , buka , shortlands ;

( table", ") , suggesting that climate and vegetation changes during the pleistocene / holocene transition were not important factors in their extinction . on the other hand , if lapita peoples in remote oceania are any indication , late holocene horticulturalists may have been just as destructive to bird life as the late pleistocene hunter / gatherers .", "the bird bone samples are too small to estimate new ireland\u2019s species richness at any one time with much certainty . we have made the very conservative assumption that all taxa marked with a double dagger (", "represent extant , resident species on new ireland . if this assumption holds true , then bones of 38 of new ireland\u2019s 106 current resident species of landbirds were recovered from the archaeological sites , as well as the bones of 12 species no longer occurring on the island . an archaeological record fully representative of new ireland\u2019s late pleistocene / early holocene landbirds probably would include at least 30 species that no longer live on the island . thus , in the absence of human impact , the landbirds of new ireland probably would number about 140 species today . a similar number probably existed there in the late pleistocene .", "we believe that few if any of new ireland\u2019s current landbirds colonized the island within the past several millennia . according to equilibrium theory , the avifauna of new ireland should have undergone postglacial \u201crelaxation\u201d ( 41 , 42 ) . because most of the extinct / extirpated taxa belong to families known to be especially vulnerable to human activities , we favor human impact over relaxation as the primary cause of faunal depletion on new ireland .", "humans colonized the bismarck archipelago and solomon islands by 35 , 000\u201330 , 000 years ago ( 43 \u2013 45 ) . thus , unlike in remote oceania , where human arrival in the late holocene was clearly devastating to indigenous birds ( 3 ) , the lapita peoples who moved across the bismarcks and solomons about 3 , 500 years ago found a flora and fauna that already had withstood tens of millennia of human activity ( 33 , 46 ) . to provide perspective on how the rich avifaunas of this region have changed over the long course of human occupation , more islands in the bismarcks and solomons should be surveyed for bone deposits of prehistoric birds . the limited evidence from new ireland hints that even new guinea , occupied by humans at least as long as island melanesia ( 47 ) and prized since its \u201cdiscovery\u201d by europeans for being so wild and forested , has suffered as yet undetected losses of birds since the arrival of humans .", "we thank g . petri and m . i . williams for their help with the manuscript preparation and b . m . beehler , j . m . diamond , h . b . freifeld , p . v . kirch , a . w . kratter , and m . spriggs for helpful comments . field research was sponsored by australian research council grants to j . p . w .

called t . numidicus ) , beaver - tailed fairy shrimp", "along with being a good candidate as an indicator species , l . arcticus may have an important role in the local ecology of arctic ponds . their diet is omnivorous , including ( but not limited to ) detritus , phytoplankton , and small crustaceans like daphnia pulex ( christoffersen , 2001 ; lakka , 2013 ) . with such a wide - ranging diet , l . arcticus likely plays an important role in the ecological structure of pond communities . in addition to their predatory role , l . arcticus stir up sediment as they search for food in in the benthic layer ( arnold , 1966 ) . this stirring up transfers nutrients into the main waterbody where it becomes available to primary producers ( arnold , 1966 ) .", "their eggs also play another role in the continued success of l . arcticus . being restricted to often isolated water bodies and having such a short life cycle , l . arcticus is not able to expand its distribution on its own . on top of being highly drought resistant , l . arcticus eggs are also sticky ( lakka , 2013 ) . this aids the eggs in being able to hitch rides to new locations . while their mode of reproduction is not fully understood , it is known that asexual reproduction , through parthenogenesis , is common ( hessen et al . , 2004 ; lakka , 2013 ; wojtasik & bry\u0142ka - wo\u0142k , 2010 ) . thus , only a single egg is necessary to colonize a new location ( longhurst , 1955 ) .", "the most important reason for studying l . arcticus however , is to learn more about them as a prey species for arctic birds . after all , invertebrate zoology is really just a fancied up term for the study of bird food . in europe , purple sandpipers ( calidris maritima ) , arctic terns ( sterna paradisaea ) , and dunlins ( calidris alpina ) have all been observed feeding on l . arcticus ( lakka , 2013 ) . all of which are birds that can be found breeding in the north american arctic . locally to where i first encountered l . arcticus , sizeable populations of king eiders ( somateria spectabilis ) , long - tailed ducks ( clangula hyemalis ) , arctic terns , red - throated loons ( gavia stellata ) , and various species of small shorebirds ( scolopacidae ) could be found nesting and feeding by the various surrounding lakes . it is highly likely that , given the lack of other food sources , l . arcticus makes up a significant portion of these birds diets during the breeding season .", "even though they lack genetic diversity ( both spatially and temporally ) , l . arcticus is found across the globe in arctic and subarctic regions ( hessen et al . 2004 ; rogers , 2001 ) . i first encountered l . arcticus while working at karrak lake in the queen maud gulf bird sanctuary . with 13 . 5 km 2 of surface water and an approximate average depth of 1 . 2 m , karrak likely freezes to the bottom during the winter ( kellett & alisauskas , 1997 ) . not the friendliest conditions for a relatively unevolved crustacean .", "back to my youth . collecting strange animals from fresh water . ben frederiks found the first one . steve coulson made me remember their name , and this morning i went on a hunt . i caught within 15 minutes 17 lepidurus arcticus , the tadpole shrimp . looks like a miniature horseshoe crab . as food i added daphnia , another of my favourite creatures . i give lectures about this creature about their ability to develop spines when fish are present , sexual and asexual reproduction , the ability to produce haemoglobin in oxygen low waters , their abilty to travel on bird legs , their winter eggs and thier role in cleaning turbid waters from fytoplankton .", "the recent discovery of a fine suite of late - glacial strata near ballyhalbert on the north - eastern irish coast in an accessible position has allowed a careful study to be made of the different layers for plant and animal macrofossils . particularly interesting has been the recovery of numerous characteristic telsons of the freshwater notostracan lepidurus arcticus , a species which was reported recently by mitchell 1 from late - glacial levels at ballaugh in the isle of man , at neasham , co . durham , and at mapastown , co . louth . records from these late - glacial contexts are significant since the species is not known in the present fauna of the british isles . its modern distribution is circumpolar , between 65\u00b0 and 80\u00b0 n .", "the heart of lepidurus arcticus consists of an epicardium and a single layer of strongly polarized myocardial cells , 10 - 50 micron thick , with the myofibrillar part facing the epicardium . the z - bands are diffuse and some z - material forms attachment plaques . relaxed sarcomeres show a hexagonal arrangement of thick filaments and 6 thin filaments in orbit , but filaments often diverge in their orientation . the sarcolemma invaginates from both the epicardial and the endocardial side of the cell , forming clefts and t - tubules . the sarcoplasmic reticulum is loosely reticular , cisternae associate with sarcolemma to form large and typical peripheral and interior couplings . the latter are of the \" button - to - button \" type and they tend to be located at the a - i level .", "so how do they survive ? well , they don\u2019t . not for very long anyways . l . arcticus has a single - season life cycle that terminates with the laying of its eggs in fall ( lakka , 2013 ; wojtasik & bry\u0142ka -

wo\u0142k , 2010 ) . their distribution in the north american arctic and subarctic is poorly known , even less so for the canadian portion than the alaskan portion ( rogers , 2001 ) . this is unfortunate given that in her 2013 master thesis , hanna - kaisa lakka identified l . arcticus as being a good candidate for use as an indicator species . among other reasons , they are sensitive to environmental change ( e . g . , ph , temperature , and salinity ) , are common over wide areas , and are highly visible and easily surveyed .", "it is thought that birds are a primary source of dispersal for the species . either by eggs sticking to feet , through being pooped out after digestion of their parents , or by adults intended for ingestion being accidentally dropped in flight ( arnold , 1966 ) . since l . arcticus is one of the few tadpole shrimp species know to coexist with fish , it is also thought that their sticky eggs could attach to arctic char and be carried along as the char migrate to new areas or are taken as food ( lakka , 2013 ) .", "arten synes \u00f6vervintra i \u00e4ggstadiet . unga individer kan p\u00e5tr\u00e4ffas under juli och fullvuxna under augusti\u2013september . djuren \u00e4r fr\u00e5n och med ungef\u00e4r en centimeters l\u00e4ngd mycket l\u00e4tta att se d\u00e4r de simmar likt sm\u00e5 rockor strax \u00f6ver bottnen . p\u00e5 grund av sitt exponerade levnadss\u00e4tt utg\u00f6r de l\u00e4ttillg\u00e4nglig f\u00f6da f\u00f6r f\u00e5gel och fisk . den \u00e4r dock n\u00e5got mindre k\u00e4nslig f\u00f6r fiskpredation \u00e4n andra bladfotingar d\u00e5 den stundom p\u00e5tr\u00e4ffats i fiskf\u00f6rande fj\u00e4llsj\u00f6ar . l . arcticus \u00e4r liksom m\u00e5nga andra sk\u00f6ldbladfotingar en all\u00e4tare som livn\u00e4r sig p\u00e5 v\u00e4xtdelar och bottenlevande sm\u00e5djur , som mygglarver och maskar . arten gynnas sannolikt av stillast\u00e5ende , helst fisktomma samt av f\u00f6rsurning , f\u00f6roreningar och regleringar op\u00e5verkade fj\u00e4llvatten .", "when i first saw arctic tadpole shrimp , i wondered how such a small creature could live , and seemingly thrive , in such a remote and harsh environment . in attempting to answer my question , i expected to find some sort of egg designed to endure the freezing winter conditions . what i was not expecting to find was that l . arcticus is a genetically simple , living fossil , with a circumpolar distribution . nor was i expecting to find that such little arctic buddies could have such large impacts on the surrounding ecology or that they could potentially serve as useful indicators for the rapidly changing northern climate . way to go , little guys !", "fj\u00e4llsk\u00f6ldbladfotingen tillh\u00f6r gruppen notostraca , sk\u00f6ldbladfotingar , som karakteriseras av att huvud och framkropp \u00e4r t\u00e4ckta av en kraftig ryggsk\u00f6ld vilken \u00e4r tillplattad uppifr\u00e5n . ryggsk\u00f6lden har en rundad framkant , medan det i bak\u00e4nden finns en djup insk\u00e4rning med tandad kant . bakkroppen , som \u00e4r l\u00e5ng och smal , b\u00e4r en \u00e4ndgaffel , s . k . furca , best\u00e5ende av tv\u00e5 spr\u00f6t . de tv\u00e5 antennparen \u00e4r b\u00e5da mycket sm\u00e5 . de f\u00f6rsta benparen har utskott , som anv\u00e4nds f\u00f6r f\u00f6rflyttning n\u00e4r djuret kryper p\u00e5 botten , samt f\u00f6r att krafsa i bottenslammet efter f\u00f6da . de \u00f6vriga benen \u00e4r plattade och flikiga . dessa ben , s . k . phyllopodier , \u00e4r i st\u00e4ndig r\u00f6relse och anv\u00e4nds f\u00f6r kortare simturer , men framf\u00f6rallt som organ f\u00f6r andning , samt f\u00f6r filtrering och transport av f\u00f6dopartiklar till munnen . tv\u00e5 fasett\u00f6gon och ett mediant placerat nauplius\u00f6ga sitter uppe p\u00e5 ryggsk\u00f6lden , n\u00e4ra framkanten . honorna n\u00e5r en l\u00e4ngd p\u00e5 knappt 25 mm medan de mindre hannarna \u00e4r knappt 15 mm . f\u00e4rgen \u00e4r gulbrun . sl\u00e4ktet har ytterligare en svensk art , spetssk\u00f6ldbladfotingen , lepidurus apus , vilken finns i s\u00f6dra sverige och skiljs genom sin st\u00f6rre storlek , l\u00e4ngre utskott p\u00e5 f\u00f6rsta benparet samt l\u00e4ngre platta p\u00e5 sista bakkroppssegmentet .", "html public \" -

no key to families is given here , as characters tend to be rather technical and involve specialised preparation techniques ; it is quite easy , however , to learn to recognise which family a moth belongs to , especially in the limited new zealand fauna .", "the ghost moths or swift moths are primitive moths with very short antennae , long abdomens , and hindwings rather similar in shape and wing venation to the forewings . the family is well represented in new zealand with 30 species , including our largest moth species , the puriri moth ( aenetus virescens ) with a wingspan up to 150 mm in the female . aenetus is confined to the north island ; caterpillars form characteristic scars on trunks of native and introduced trees . other hepialid larvae in new zealand are more or less subterranean , forming tunnels in the soil of grasslands or wetlands ( e . g . , wiseana spp , the porina moths ) or under leaf - litter in forests ( e . g . , dumbletonius spp . ) . adults of many species are crepuscular , flying at dusk , and coming to light before it is fully dark , but aenetus tends to fly later in the night .", "the burnet and forester moths are an unusual family of day - flying lepidoptera , many of which are brightly coloured and distasteful to birds and other vertebrate predators . they are naturally absent from new zealand , and only a single introduced species , the bamboo moth ( artona martini ) is present , having first been detected in whangarei in 1996 . it is has now spread as far as auckland ; the hairy larvae can cause conspicuous defoliation of bamboos in gardens and parks and sometimes occur locally in huge numbers . the diurnal adults are less conspicuous . artoni martini originates in south - east asia , and was presumably introduced accidentally through trade .", "the clearwings are another unusual family of day - flying moths , most of which are mimics of wasps or bees , with partially transparent wings . they are day - flying but often very hard to find as adults ; caterpillars are internal feeders in a wide range of plants . there is only a single introduced european species in new zealand : the currant clearwing ( synanthedon tipuliformis ) , which as its name suggests , feeds as a caterpillar inside stems of cultivated currants ( ribes spp . ) . adults may occasionally be seen flying around the currant bushes in sunshine . they are rarely found north of the central north island .", "the loopers are a very large family of moths ( over 20 , 000 species worldwide ) , well represented in new zealand by over 250 species , where most species are endemic . the common name comes from the larvae , which do not have the full complement of abdominal prolegs ( usually they have prolegs only on segments 6 and 10 ) , and therefore progress in the characteristic \u2018inchworm\u2019 looping motion . an important feature of the family is the presence of tympanal organs ( \u2018ears\u2019 ) at the base of the abdomen .", "subfamily ennominae . all new zealand ennominae ( about 55 species ) are medium - sized relatively robust moths ( although not as robust as noctuidae ) , and the males in most genera have feathery antennae . in the genus pseudocoremia , the hindwings are often yellowish and much brighter than the forewings under which they are concealed when the moth is at rest . declana contains robust noctuid - like species , most exhibiting lichen - like or bark - like patterning . some , like d . floccosa , are very variable in colour pattern . the fern loopers in the genera ischalis , sarisa and sestra have scalloped or hook - tipped forewings , usually with strong dark lines running across them ; males have simple , non - feathery antennae . chalastra males do have feathery antennae ; c . aristarcha and pellurgata are medium - sized moths with distinctive white markings . \u2018 chalastra \u2019 ochrea is more pseudocoremia - like and does not really belong with the other two chalastra species . gellonia and cleora are large brown moths , with feathery antennae in the males , and scalloped edges to the wings . cleora scriptaria , the kawakawa looper , is especially variable in pattern ; its current genus placement is likely to be incorrect . zermizinga indocilisaria is a small , grey , rather atypical ennomine , with an eastern distribution in new zealand . the female is short - winged ( brachypterous ) ; the species almost certainly originates from australia .", "subfamily larentiinae . the larentiinae are very well represented in new zealand with about 200 described species . they tend to be more delicate , butterfly - like moths than ennominae , and some species ( e . g . asaphodes aegrota , austrocidaria similata , epyaxa rosearia ) will hold their wings vertically above the body like a butterfly when at rest . the subfamily contains many brightly coloured day - flying species , especially in the endemic genera paranotoreas , notoreas and dasyuris , many of which are restricted to open subalpine and alpine habitats . the cabbage tree looper ( epiphryne verriculata ) is a common and well known species belonging to this subfamily : the adults are often illustrated as a fine example of crypsis when resting on the dead leaves of their larval host - plant cordyline australis . the genus tatosoma is remarkable for the highly elongated abdomens of the males ; this feature has presumably evolved as a result of sexual selection by the females . the genus - level classification of larentiinae in new zealand is in need of extensive revision , e . g . moths currently assigned to the genus hydriomena are all wrongly placed . at the species level , the genera notoreas and pasiphila are particularly difficult and badly in need of revision ; identifications given here are based on those in nzac and there may still be errors .", "subfamily sterrhinae . only a single species of this cosmopolitan subfamily ( usually called \u2018waves\u2019 ) occurs in new zealand ; this is scopula rubraria , which also occurs widely in australia . it is a very common species in pastures , roadsides and weedy places , especially in late summer , flying by day . larvae feed on a variety of herbaceous plants , including plantain ( plantago spp . ) .", "the very large and unmistakeable gum emperor moth ( opodiphthera eucalypti ) is our only species of this family of silk moths , and was introduced from australia in the early 20th century . it is now widespread in new zealand , larvae feeding chiefly on eucalyptus spp . in gardens and parks , but also on schinus ( pepper tree ) .", "the hawk - moths are a family of large streamlined moths ; many species are powerful fliers and migratory in habit . only one cosmopolitan species occurs regularly and breeds in new zealand , the convolvulus hawk - moth ( agrius convolvuli ) , with larvae feeding on convolvulaceae , including kumara ( sweet potato , ipomoea batatas ) . the silver - striped hawk - moth ( hippotion celerio ) occurs rarely as a migrant to new zealand : there appear to be very few recent records .", "this family name has recently been revived ; the erebidae now include the former families arctiidae ( tiger moths ) and lymantriidae ( tussock moths ) along with several subfamilies formerly assigned to noctuidae . like noctuidae , erebidae have tympanal organs ( \u2018ears\u2019 ) on the metathorax . the family is very diverse in the tropics , but there are very few truly native species in new zealand .", "subfamily lymantriinae . naturally absent from new zealand , the tussock moth subfamily is recorded here based on two accidentally introduced species which established briefly in the auckland area , but were subsequently eradicated . teia anartoides , the painted apple moth , originates from australia . the female has strongly reduced wings and is flightless ; males are day - flying . orgyia thyellina , the white - spotted tussock moth , originates from south - east asia , and has both winged ( flying ) and brachypterous ( flightless ) forms of the female . both species have hairy larvae with characteristic \u2018toothbrush\u2019 tufts on the dorsum ; larvae feed on a wide range of host plants , though teia prefer wattle ( acacia spp . ) .", "subfamily arctiinae . this subfamily ( the tiger moths ) contains many colourful species worldwide ; larvae are hairy , with many secondary setae . the genus metacrias is our only endemic genus of arctiinae ; the three species chiefly occur in open habitats at higher elevations , and are almost confined to the south island ; only m . huttoni occurs in the north island ( ruahine range ) . females are flightless with minute wings , and males are diurnal with a strong , buzzing flight . larvae feed on a variety of herbaceous plants . two similar species of utetheisa ( crimson speckled footman ) occur as migrants to new zealand : u . pulchelloides ssp . vaga is a common migrant , with larvae on boraginaceae ; u . lotrix is very much rarer , with larvae on fabaceae . the cinnabar moth , tyria jacobaeae , is a european species introduced to new zealand in the 1920s as a biological control agent for its larval host - plant ragwort ( jacobaea vulgaris ( = senecio jacobaea ) ) . the conspicuous yellow and black banded larvae are distasteful to predators , as is the black and red day - flying adult . nyctemera annulata is an endemic species of a widespread genus ; larvae feed on senecio spp . the closely related australian n . amicus has reached northern new zealand and now hybridises freely there with n . annulata ; it can be difficult to distinguish the adults of the two species and the hybrid , but a white fringe to the wings probably always indicates some amicus parentage . specimens with whitish lines at the base of the forewing along the veins are the most likely to be nearly pure amicus .", "other erebid subfamilies . all other erebidae in new zealand were formerly assigned to noctuidae ( subfamilies catocalinae , hypeninae and hypenodinae ) . subfamily placements still remain uncertain for some species , as the subfamily classification of erebidae has so far been largely based on northern hemisphere genera . a number of species only occur in new zealand as migrants from australia ( genera achaea , anomis , eudocima , hypocala ) ; other australian species have become established ( the large dasypodia spp . , with larvae on acacia , pantydia sparsa , with larvae on a range of plants , and the geometrid - like artigisa melanephele , with larvae on fungi and dead wood ) . schrankia costaestrigalis is a common , near - cosmopolitan species ; being small and slender - bodied , it is often mistaken for a micro - moth . only two endemic erebid species are found in new zealand : the common rhapsa scotosialis , with larvae feeding on leaf - litter or hanging moss , and the less common trigonistis anticlina , a forest species whose larvae are unknown .", "two species of this family ( previously often treated as a subfamily of noctuidae ) are found in new zealand . larvae , as in arctiinae , have many secondary setae . the endemic nola parvitis is a rare species whose larvae feed on the endemic shrub helichrysum lanceolatum . the gum - leaf skeletoniser , uraba lugens , was accidentally introduced from australia and is now common in the northern north island , feeding on various myrtaceae , especially eucalyptus and lophostemon .", "this is a huge worldwide family has about 140 named species in new zealand , which by world standards is an extremely limited fauna . adults have tympanal organs ( \u2018ears\u2019 ) on the metathorax , as do erebidae . it should be noted that the species of declana ( geometridae : ennominae ) resemble noctuidae superficially with their robust bodies and narrowish forewings .", "subfamily amphipyrinae s . l . our two species of the endemic genus bityla are true amphipyrines , closely related to the northern hemisphere amphipyra . larvae of b . defigurata feed on muehlenbeckia vines ; adults overwinter . the life history of b . sericea is currently unknown . cosmodes is an unusual and striking endemic australian genus containing the single species c . elegans ; it occurs more or less regularly in new zealand , and probably breeds here at least temporarily . larvae feed on lobelia and verbena spp . proteuxoa is a large australian genus ; of the three species known from new zealand , one ( p . sanguinipuncta ) is a recent arrival , now well established . two species have been confused under the name proteuxoa comma , one of which may be undescribed , and both of which are thought to be endemic to new zealand , though closely related to australian species . proteuxoa species have larvae feeding on a range of herbaceous plants . the proper systematic placement of both proteuxoa and cosmodes remains to be determined ; they will probably be removed from amphipyrinae .", "subfamily agaristinae . only the australian phalaenoides glycinae ( grapevine moth ) has been found in new zealand . the conspicuous black , white and red caterpillar feeds mainly on members of the plant family vitaceae ( including vitis , grapevine , and parthenocissus , virginia creeper ) , but is also recorded from other plants including cultivated fuchsia . formerly common in northern new zealand , this moth seems to have declined greatly here , and there have been few records ( if any ) in the last 10 years .", "subfamily condicinae . only condica illecta ( formerly platysenta illecta ) has been recorded in new zealand , where it occurs rarely as an immigrant . overseas it is found in australia and throughout south - east asia and the pacific , where the larvae feed on various herbaceous plants in the family asteraceae .", "subfamily heliothinae . the rare endemic heliothine australothis volatilis is known only from a few sites in central otago , where larvae feed on vittadinia ( asteraceae ) . adults are day - flying . our two species of helicoverpa are immigrant pest species ; h . armigera is by far the commoner species .", "the large and highly enigmatic titanomis sisyrota is known only from ten specimens ( two of them lost ) , collected from scattered localities from the central north island to the southern south island . the last ( one of the lost specimens ) was collected in 1959 . the life history is unknown , but the very elongate , probing ovipositor of the female suggests that larvae are internal feeders . family placement of titanomis has never been satisfactorily resolved ; a recent published assignment to the micro - moth family glyphipterigidae is almost certainly incorrect , since morphology of the base of the abdomen suggests a more advanced position in ditrysia . extinction is a possibility , but as the moth has only ever been collected extremely rarely at long intervals , and was apparently widespread , it may well await rediscovery .", "apart from unnamed species and species only recorded from the kermadecs , or only captured once in new zealand , there are a number of species of larger moth that are not represented in the image galleries . these fall into three categories :", "1 . species for which it proved impossible to find or borrow good enough specimens for photography . the following species are in this category : hepialidae : aoraia hespera , a . oreobolae ; geometridae : pseudocoremia hollyae , p . hudsoni , austrocidaria prionota , chloroclystis impudicis ; noctuidae : agrotis ceropachoides .", "2 . species of dubious taxonomic status , i . e . named species in unrevised groups that lack clear diagnostic features , that are not separated as species in nzac , and that require further taxonomic investigation . some may still prove to be valid species . the following species are currently in this category : geometridae : austrocidaria praerupta ( not distinguished from a . callichlora ) , dasyuris strategica , homodotis amblyterma , \u2018 hydriomena\u2019 canescens ( not distinguished from \u2018 h . \u2019 clarkei ) , notoreas galaxias , n . isoleuca , pasiphila acompsa , p . punicea , p . vieta , xanthorhoe lophogramma ( not distinguished from x . semifissata ) ;

hairless prehensile tail , which is used for climbing . they are often tan with a blackish \u201cvest\u201d around the shoulders and on the body , but some are entirely tan or entirely black . tamanduas have shorter fur and proportionately shorter muzzles than giant anteaters .", "the giant anteater ' s species name , tridactyla , comes from \" tri \" and \" dactylos , \" which are greek words for \" three fingers \" . however , the giant anteaters actually have five toes on each paw ( the fifth is vestigial ) . the name probably came about because only three of the front toes have prominent claws and can be easily seen . the giant anteater walks clumsily on the soles of its back feet and on the in\u2013turned claws of its front feet .", "the bizarre sex life of the spiny anteater has been exposed by researchers \u2013 the male ejaculates using only one half of its penis . new findings about the creature\u2019s sex life may seem salacious but they could help shed light on an evolutionary mystery .", "giant anteaters tend to pursue the larger bodied social insects , while tamanduas and silky anteaters tend to prey on smaller insect fare . such dietary segmentation allows for different anteater species to co - exist in the same region without being in direct predatory competition .", "then steve johnston of the university of queensland in gatton , australia , and his colleagues inherited a male spiny anteater that was not so shy . the creature had been \u0091retired\u2019 from a zoo as it produced an erection when being handled at public viewing sessions .", "the giant anteater has a long , thin head , small eyes , rounded ears , and a bushy and long ( but not prehensile ) tail . the worm -

lipped nectar bat , while only distally related , all have tongues that are detached from their hyoid bone and extend past their pharynx deep into the thorax ( muchala 2006 ) . this extension lies between the sternum and the trachea .", "anteaters are very good animals . they somehow pull off the whole \u201cslurp up ants with their sticky , noodly , bendy straw tongues\u201d so confidently you forget how weird that is . and scientists agree that , yes , anteater tongues are weird . but they\u2019re also understudied .", "the giant anteater is covered with stiff , straw -

lih - juh - nus ) , meaning males mate with more than one female . after giant anteaters mate , the male leaves , but the male silky anteater helps to feed its young while it ' s in the nest . the gestation period , the amount of time before the female gives birth , is 120 to 150 days for silky anteaters and tamandua . the giant anteater gives birth after about 190 days .", "another adaptation of the giant anteater is their behaviour . they have an extremely strong sense for smelling their prey . the anteaters are able to smell 40 times better than humans can . this enables them to smell ants or termites from a long distance even up to several miles .", "of the four different anteater species , the giant anteater is by far the largest . its body can reach lengths of four feet ( 1 . 2 m ) and it can grow to two feet ( 0 . 6 m ) long . the giant anteater has an elongated snout and a very bushy tail . the coarse , dense fur that covers its body is mostly dark brown or black but it has white forelegs with black bands around its wrists and a wide band of black fur stretches across its chest and all the way to the middle of its back . this stripe is bordered by a thin line of white , gray or light brown fur . its tongue is an impressive two feet long , and half an inch wide . it is covered with sticky saliva that helps it to pick up the insects that it eats , including termites and ants . giant anteaters have large front claws and powerful forelegs that allow them to break open termite mounds in a single swipe and make them a formidable opponent to predators . in a few instances , a giant anteater has killed a puma or jaguar while defending itself against attack .", "anteaters are edentate animals\u2014they have no teeth . but their long tongues are more than sufficient to lap up the 35 , 000 ants and termites they swallow whole each day . the giant anteater can reach 7 feet long from the tip of its snout to the end of its tail .", "the giant anteater is very solitary and it does well taking care of its own needs . it will usually only interact with others during mating and when there are young to care for . they are able to search for and then to tear into the mounds of termites and ants ."]}

lu et al . , 1965 ; pei , 1991 ) . this species has been regarded as a subspecies of itagnostus gaspensis by naimark ( 2012 ) , but we regard it as an independent , although closely related species within itagnostus . itagnostus sp . cf . i . gaspensis from greenland differs from this species from south china in having a cephalon with an almost straight median sector of the anterior margin rather than being well rounded . in addition , the pygidial rachis is generally narrower and particularly in the posterior portion clearly narrower and more strongly tapering with less clearly impressed lateral furrows ; the marginal spines are distinctly smaller . a similar form was described as peronopsis sp . cf . i . taitzuhoensis from the heicigou group of the north qilian district , tarim platform , northwest china ( zhou and dean , 1996 ) .", "the material of itagnostus sp . cf . i . gaspensis from the ekspedition br\u00e6 formation clearly differs from i . subhastatus n . sp . , which appears in the same samples , in a number of characters : a shorter and nearly subparallel rather than tapering glabella with a relatively longer posterior lobe ; a narrower anterior and lateral cephalic border ; a distinctly longer pygidial rhachis with an ogival rather than hastate posterior portion and two constrictions as well as a longitudinal , crest - like median tubercle ; a short depression connecting dorsal and border furrows ; a less strongly broadening border ; and marginal spines that are short and thorn - like .", "itagnostus interstrictus ( white , 1874 ) has a posteriorly broadened posterior lobe and thus a clearly tapering glabella . naimark ( 2012 ) assigned specimens from the malokuonamka \u201chorizon\u201d of the siberian platform described as peronopsis aff . gaspensis ( egorova et al . , 1982 , pl . 51 , figs . 1 , 3 ) to itagnostus interstrictus . specimens described as euagnostus aff . interstrictus by laurie ( 2004 , p . 245 , figs . 18a\u201318n ) , however , were assigned by naimark ( 2012 ) to i . gaspensis . laurie ( 2004 ) stated that they differ from itagnostus interstrictus only by having a posteriorly displaced glabellar tubercle ; this was interpreted by naimark ( 2012 ) as being a characteristic feature of i . gaspensis . the present specimens from the ekspedition br\u00e6 formation are not well enough preserved to permit an unequivocal assessment based on this character ; they appear to show a faint tubercle in a more central position on the posterior glabellar lobe and thus to indicate another character difference from i . gaspensis .", "the similar species peronopsis ( p . ) scutalis ( salter in hicks , 1872 ) from scandinavia ( typical specimens figured by westerg\u00e5rd , 1946 ) lacks true pygidial spines . it is also very similar to acadagnostus acadica ( hartt , 1868 ) , from which it can be separated by the same character .", "conocephalites cordillerae rominger , 1887 ;

it is discussed below . its bilobate terminal axial piece in the pygidium could even be used as a criterion to separate it from the vast majority of species assigned to elrathina . however , as long as the morphologic plasticity of this character is not fully understood , we suggest retention of the traditional generic concept .", "solov\u2019ev and grikurov ( 1978 ) described material from the ptychagnostus praecurrens zone of the shackleton range , antarctica , as elrathina parallela longa , and their naming suggested a new variety of e . parallela . the available material consisted of only two moderately well - preserved carapaces ( one of them an external mold ) , which do not present details of the pygidium and the glabella . solov\u2019ev and grikurov ( 1978 , p . 197\u2013198 ) emphasized the similarity with e . parallela , from which the specimens from the shackleton range were distinguished by a more slender glabella with subparallel sides and a narrow frontal lobe . in fact , this interpretation is based on the fact that the anterior part of the glabella in both specimens appears to be transversely compressed and therefore has a ridge that connects the glabella with the anterior border as a taphonomic artifact . we thus regard the type material of e . parallela longa as insufficient to characterize a taxon .", "elrathina antiqua palmer in palmer and halley , 1979 from the carrara formation of the belted range , nevada , is characterized by a pygidium with an unusually short axis , a thorax of only 15 or 16 segments , and librigenae with an angular thorn , but otherwise shares the diagnostic characters of the genus ( fig . 4 . 2 ) . it is derived from the albertella zone and is thus the oldest known species of the genus .", ", plaster cast of holotype in the museum of comparative zoology , cambridge , mass . , usnm 65009 , carapace without librigenae , parker slate , parker quarry , georgia . scale bars = 5 mm .", "elrathina spinifera rasetti , 1951 from the stephen formation of the mt . odaray section , british columbia , has a glabella with an almost flat front , a fairly narrow preglabellar field , a distinct swelling of the anterior border such that the anterior border furrow describes a rearward swing and is shallower on the sagittal line , and a short obliquely backward directed occipital spine . the thorax , pygidium , and librigenae are unknown .", "summarized , the species from the stephen formation indicate that specific differences include variation of the preglabellar field , the breadth and possible swelling of the anterior cephalic border , the size of the occipital node or spine , the position of the geniculation of the thoracic segments , and the length and width of the pygidial rhachis , all of which appear to be constant within the species . therefore , these characters are regarded as a blueprint for taxonomic distinction within the elrathina clade .", "the most conspicuous taphonomic effect in elrathina is the absence of librigenae even in the nearly complete carapaces . these therefore qualify as carcasses that record the \u201colenid mode\u201d of molting .", "a common feature in larger sclerites is the presence of cracks . their frequency depends on the size and morphology of the sclerites . isolated thoracic segments are generally preserved as fragments only , which is interpreted as an effect of the narrow and brittle nature of the segments . their fractures are concentrated at or adjacent to the axial furrow .", ") usnm 65518a , incomplete dorsal carapace ;

bearing clade . exisiting , available names are utilized wherever possible to minimize the disruption to nomenclature , while simultaneously reflecting relationship . we will identify clades that include the type species of each chromodorid genus and delineate genera to minimize conflict with current classification and support recognition of interesting morphology . the translation of phylogenetic hypotheses into classifications is the best way to communicate results to a larger community , but even as the number of molecular phylogenies increases , the number of new classifications is decreasing [ 54 ] \u2013 [ 56 ] . the growing phylogeny / classification gap is troubling . phylogenies are hypotheses of relationship and communicating these new hypotheses is one of the main contributions systematics can make to the scientific community .", "the sequenced coi fragment is 658 base pairs ( bp ) long . the edited 16s sequences are 531 bp long . the combined data sets with gaps introduced for alignment are 1189 base pairs long . all sequences are available from genbank coi ( jq727822\u2013jq727914 ) , 16s ( jq727689\u2013jq727821 ) and aligned data matrices are available upon request from the corresponding author . excluded variable 16s regions are identified as character sets in all nexus files . saturation was not found in the 16s fragment or the first or second positions of the coi fragment . there is slight saturation in the third position transitions in the coi data set ( not shown ) . the third positions were included in the bayesian analysis as the partitioning allows the parameters of this position to be estimated separately and the inclusion of the third positions did not change the resulting trees . the recommended model of evolution ( aic form mr . model test ) was used to set parameters in mr . bayes for each partition . the resulting best -

pacific , but there are three individual species and five clades of solely atlantic and / or eastern pacific species ( figure 4 ) . the sister group to the rest of the chromodorids , cadlinella is found only in the indo - pacific , while the sister to the chromodorididae , the actinocyclidae is found in most temperate and tropical waters . although there are other possibly scenarios , such as trans - pacific dispersal and migration around africa , the pattern uncovered here , strongly supports the simplest hypothesis that the chromodorids diversified rapidly from the tropical tethyan realm . this pattern has been found in other gastropod groups [ 104 ] \u2013 [ 108 ] ( figure 4 ) . the chromodorids were likely widely distributed and different lineages diversified in isolation following vicariant events . this scenario is further supported by the fact that goniobranchis is sister to \u2018 doriprismatica \u2019 and its closest realitves and that all the memebers of goniobranchus are indo - pacific . also in this scenario , the specimens identified as d . sedna from the atlantic and eastern pacific appear to be distinct species as indicated by coi pairwise distances of 11 . 7\u201311 . 0 % between eastern pacific and altantic specimens while the three eastern pacific specimens are 0\u20130 . 7 % different from each other . this scenario clearly supports vicariance between the indo - pacific and eastern pacific and atlantic preceding the vicariance between the eastern pacific and atlantic . in the main chromodorid grade of clades there are two individual species and three clades that are exclusively atlantic and / or eastern pacific . specimens identified as \u2018 doriprismatica\u2019 sedna found both in the eastern pacific and the western atlantic , are always sisters and are nested within a clade of exclusively indo - pacific species . this is most likely a radiation into the eastern pacific and atlantic from the indo - pacific . the remainder of the atlantic and eastern pacific species , not included in the miamirinae , are part of a polytomy including five clades , three containing only eastern pacific and atlantic species of \u2018felimida\u2019 and the indo - pacific ardeadoris and chromodoris clades . \u2018felimida\u2019 baumanni , found in the eastern pacific , is also part of this polytomy . the relationships in this grade need to be examined more closely with the addition of more specimens and more genes .", "relationships within the miramirinae clade are more resolved . there are two clades that include eastern pacific and atlantic species . the felimare clade is exclusively eastern pacific and atlantic . there are two eastern pacific and atlantic splits in this clade , the eastern pacific f . porterae and caribbean f . kempfi are potentially geminate species and are sister to a larger clade of eastern pacific , caribbean and eastern atlantic felimare species . more sampling is needed in this clade to further untangle the emergent biogeographic patterns within felimare . additionally , within the miamirinae , the eastern pacific species , mexichromis antonii , is sister to the exclusively indo - pacific m . lemniscata , m . pusilla and m . similaris and this clade is sister to the rest of the indo - pacific mexichromis . within the miamirinae , it appears that there had been more than one dispersal event from the indo - pacific , to eastern pacific and atlantic . ceratosoma and miamira species are only found in the indo - pacific and adjacent temperate regions . the sister taxon , the clade including : felimare , mexichromis , thorunna and hypselodoris , has a wider distribution . within this sister taxon , felilmare is exclusively eastern pacific and atlantic while its sister species in its sister taxon mexichromis , thorunna and hypselodoris are almost exclusively indo - pacific and adjacent temperate regions . mexichromis antonii , which is found in the eastern pacific , is the only speices in this clade not found in the indo - pacific or adjacent regions . thus , felimare and mexichromis antonii represent two distrinct invasions of the eastern pacific from the indo -

protection techniques .", "the group that created cabir was known not only for its sophistication , but also for the fact that it issued its own e - zine . and a few months after the first appearance of cabir , it published information about the worm together with snippets of executable code , so some time later new modifications of cabir began to appear \u2013 every week . there was one virus writer with an extremely strong desire for fame who persistently sent us modifications of the virus with a request to give it a separate name ! he kept returning , again and again \u2013 for a year ! \u2013 trying to somehow get into the history books of mobile viruses . in the end he got what he wanted : we indeed classified one of the modifications as a separate family ; we kinda had to .", "mike mccamon , spokesperson for bluetooth , told technewsworld that the trade association is currently in the process of contacting the individuals that created the worm , and are also investigating security reports that are still coming in .", "what our analysts had successfully analyzed here ( which was later named cabir \u2013 see below ) was the first virus for cellphones , and it became a kind of a starting gun \u2013 signaling the start of the race for virus writers to create malicious code for smartphones \u2013 and create it is indeed what they did , with alarming speed . so much so that by the end of the year it was clear that we really needed a new department to analyze exclusively mobile viruses , especially since they were found to be quite different to computer viruses .", "the worm was created by a group that is known for developing viruses to demonstrate vulnerabilities in technology , huger said . \" this is a group that ' s done some watershed type of activities , \" he noted .", "so all the time while the athletes were running on the track , simultaneously the cabir virus was running too \u2013 all around the stands . i know , you couldn\u2019t make this up ! anyway , eventually cabir was bluetoothed into the cellphone in a pocket of an f - secure employee at the stadium ( question \u2013 why was he accepting unknown files by bluetooth ? : ) . days later the finnish antivirus company opportunely offered to install in the stadium a bluetooth scanner giving visitors the chance to check whether their phones had been infected with the virus . so there\u2019s your link \u2013 read : gimmick : ) \u2013 between cabir and f - secure .", "cabir managed to cause a minor , but rather curious and thus well - publicized outbreak . it just so happened that in 2005 a certain athletics tournament was taking place in finland . which meant there was a stadium crammed with folks from all over the planet . now , the damage radius of cabir was generally very small \u2013 as bluetooth\u2019s range is only about 20 meters . however , here , in a packed stadium ? \u2026 : ) . the problem was made even worse by the fact that nokia phones come from finland and are thus extremely popular there ! needless to say , cabir easily got into the stadium \u2013 on a cellphone in a pocket of one of the tens of thousands of spectators .", "but the next attack might not be so civilized , f - secure noted . the company warns that the discovery of the worm proves that technologies are now available to create viruses for mobile phones , and that those technologies are now in the hands of virus writers .", "he added that another item to note is that the worm can only be propagated if a device is in the discoverable mode , which means it is waiting to accept a connection . most device manufacturers have this as a default setting , he said , but a phone can easily be switched to a nondiscoverable mode .", "cabir is a different kind of threat , however , because it does not come through a carrier . huger said , \" this uses bluetooth , so you ' re not calling anybody . it just searches around the proximity to see if it can find another bluetooth device , and infects it that way . \"", "when executed , cabir installs itself into several directories of the symbian os intending to make sure it will run each time the user boots the phone . fortunately , this operation is disallowed in newer phone models . however , on older phones , worm components cannot be easily found without using custom file manager applications . cabir does not enumerate bluetooth devices ; instead , it tries to find only the first such device and communicates with that device . the standard bluetooth range is about 30 feet , and apparently not all bluetooth devices like to communicate with each other . ( however , researchers such as mark rowe are experienced with bluetooth signal amplification and pointed out that attackers could utilize such technology to extend the bluetooth range to about 300 feet , reliably . ) in addition , researchers such as ollie whitehouse of @ stake also demonstrated that bluetooth devices are discoverable even in the so - called \" non - discoverable \" mode . several bluetooth - related attack tools exist today including the most popular bluesniff , btscanner , psmscan and redfang .", "the worm currently has no harmful effects , but that does not mean it is not important , noted alfred huger , senior director of engineering for symantec ' s security response team . \" the virus represents a wake - up call , \" he told technewsworld . \" just because this one isn ' t dangerous doesn ' t mean the next one won ' t be . \"", "\u2013 well , things weren\u2019t so bad , because even before the discovery of cabir viruses for palm os ( for palm pdas ) had appeared , so many antivirus companies had already developed protection for that platform . but eventually passions subsided , new viruses didn\u2019t appear , and many people just stopped thinking about palm os viruses and protection against them . ( also , palms weren\u2019t smartphones , and weren\u2019t all that popular \u2013 compared with hugely popular cellphones . ) but with the discovery of cabir , we called up again all we had learned earlier , modified it , and shortly after had on the market an antivirus for mobile platforms . ever since , more and more mobile viruses have appeared . and ever since , we\u2019ve been modifying and updating our mobile protection too . nothing to respond with , you ask ? hardly !", "\u2013 if you\u2019re referring to direct financial losses , it didn\u2019t cause any . it exhausted the battery pretty quickly \u2013 in just two to three hours \u2013 because constantly searching for bluetooth connections places a heavy load on the battery . in monetary terms , the later mobile viruses that in addition to transmitting themselves sent mmss to premium - rate numbers were far more damaging . for example , a well - known virus post - cabir , comwario , caused an epidemic in a spanish city whose financial damage came to the tune of several million euros .", "inside the room there was zero mobile coverage , and any and all communications were jammed : everything was done to prevent viruses from spreading beyond the room . the room turned out to be not only a necessary tool for testing mobile viruses , but also a favorite attraction for media folks , so we always took them there to have a look . these days the mobile malware scene has changed dramatically , and old school viruses like cabir have ceased to exist , so there\u2019s no need for such a room anymore , much to the disappointment of media types : ) .", "it was the most legendary group of virus writers in history . they created a massive amount of advanced and unique things . the group consisted of virus writers from all around the world , with membership changing all the time , but there was always a sort of a main skeleton crew made up of people from spain and brazil . one of them , a man named , if my memory serves me well , vallez , created cabir . the 29a group were not cybercriminals by modern standards \u2013 they were virus writers creating malware to test and demonstrate new virus technologies . thus , they were motivated by ideology rather than personal gain . they were firsts in many respects : the first to create a macro virus , the first to create a virus for the windows 64 platform\u2026 each creation of 29a was a breakthrough , used afterwards by other virus writers , and then by cybercriminals . and we have to remember that at that time \u2013 in 2004 \u2013 cybercrime was only just beginning to emerge . back then the majority of virus programs tended to be created just for kicks , by people trying to\u2026 \u2018express themselves\u2019 .", ", which was infecting symbian - powered nokia devices by spreading via unsecured bluetooth connections . with its discovery the world learned that there was now malware not just for computers \u2013 which everyone already knew too well about ( save for the odd hermit or monk ) \u2013 but also for smartphones . yes , many", "a decade ! ) for most people ( some still aren\u2019t aware ) . meantime , our analysts made it into the history books !", "mobile viruses were almost non - existent 10 years ago . this is how i remember things from back then : in early 2004 we were holding an international press conference , and one of the journalists asked me when the first virus for cellphones would appear . i replied by next year\u2019s conference \u2013 for certain . sure enough , some months later \u2013 it appeared\u2026", "one of our shift virus analysts was sent an unusual file , whose platform it was supposed to operate on was unknown . so he asked his colleague , roman kuzmenko , for help with the analysis of the suspicious object . roma was the natural choice , incidentally , being as he is very much a wunder - analyst and unparalleled in unlocking the mysteries of the oddest of things . as could have been expected , it only took him a couple of hours to work out that what we had here was a virus for the symbian os running on an arm processor . and this duo existed only on cellphones \u2013 specifically , on nokia ones .", "at that time , our experts couldn\u2019t immediately understand what the virus actually did , so we had to start running tests . but first we needed to get hold of a nokia smartphone , which proved no easy task ! such \u2018advanced\u2019 phones were not quite as common as they are today : ) . in the meantime our anti - malware lab continued to analyze the virus , and soon they found\u2026 the bomb ! they worked out that its key features were the ability to command the bluetooth protocol and transfer files . it looked like an absurdly efficient means of spreading disease \u2013 virus - based disease\u2026", "it does . we didn\u2019t have a selection of all the smartphones in operation back then for quick testing , as the idea of needing such a collection naturally hadn\u2019t occurred to us yet \u2013 cellphone viruses still didn\u2019t exist .", "so we founded such a department , with me heading it . later i was joined by another analyst , denis maslennikov , and one of the first things we decided together was to purchase all the mobile devices that existed on the market that could be attacked by malicious code \u2013 even if just theoretically . this was quite fun . after all , who doesn\u2019t like buying new kit \u2013 never mind loads of it in one go ? we procured all the symbian devices there were , plus all the phones based on windows , blackberry , and so on . still to this day , we continue to add new mobile devices to our exotic and very complete collection \u2013 in case a new mobile threat appears and we need devices to test with sharpish .", "oh , that\u2019s a whole other story ! the screenshot shows the name the author gave it \u2013 caribe . however , it\u2019s customary in the antivirus industry to name viruses not according to how their authors\u2019 named them , but to come up with new names \u2013 so as not to fuel the authors\u2019 egos\u2026 oh , and maybe stamp our authority all over the conquered viruses !", "so there we were doing really advanced analysis work \u2013 deciding on a name \u2013 when our colleague elena kabirova walked into the room . given the jungian weirdness of the coincidence of her surname being similar to the virus\u2019s name , we asked her if she\u2019d like her name to go down in history as the name of the very first virus for cellphones . well , the rest\u2026 is history : ) .", "as often happens with viruses , we received an email with nothing but an attachment \u2013 which contained the virus file . it was sent to our address created specifically for this \u2013 newvirus @ urltoken . we knew about the sender of the email \u2013 he was listed in our databases as\u2026 not exactly a virus writer , but someone \u2018associated with\u2019 the underground . once in a while he would send us new malware samples created by european virus writers . as a rule , everything he\u2019d send always turned out to be something serious , i . e . , new and unique , so we knew this one would be something significant too straight away . sure enough , this was soon confirmed by strings contained in the malware code ( including mention of 29a ) . it was then clear that what we had here was a malicious program authored by the notorious , long - established international group of virus writers called 29a .", "at the time , we didn\u2019t know that the sender of the email had simultaneously sent the virus to several other antivirus companies ; still , that didn\u2019t really matter : we were the only ones able to figure out what the file was all about : ) .", "after initial analysis of the virus it became clear that for testing we\u2019d need not one but two smartphones running symbian , because the virus transmitted itself from one phone to another using bluetooth . so we copied the virus onto the first phone , started bluetooth on the second in discoverable mode \u2013 and in an instant a request to accept the file came up on the second phone . and after receiving and running the file , the second phone automatically started searching for all available bluetooth - enabled devices nearby . thus , we confirmed that the virus disseminated and propagated via bluetooth . next , we distributed a press release telling the world about the appearance of the first cellphone virus . but that was only just the beginning\u2026", "the functionality of the virus and its subsequent modifications presented us with a big practical problem at our office . after all , we were not in a vacuum , but in a typical working environment , where all around could have been folks who could accept this file on their nokias . we realized we were putting our own colleagues in jeopardy with possible infection ! this prompted us to fit out a special room with iron shielding where we could experiment safely with mobile malware .", "\u2013 you said this malware was created by a certain group of virus writers . t ell me more about it .", "the group existed until around 2009 , though before then it had become a lot less active . some members of the group were arrested \u2013 in spain , brazil , and the czech republic \u2013 while others continue to write malware . we know this because we still come across familiar bits of code \u2013 kind of like their personal handwriting or thumbprint .", "\u2013 today we\u2019ve talked about a particular mobile threat \u2013 how it spread and the group behind it . but what we haven\u2019t discussed is the issue of protecting mobile platforms back then . did we really have nothing to respond with ?", "i agree to provide my email address to \u201cao kaspersky lab\u201d to receive information about new posts on the site . i understand that i can withdraw this consent at any time via e -

to - face connections between humans . that\u2019s hardly surprising given that bluetooth has a range of just a few metres .", "however , the mobile phone network is largely static , because calls have to routed through a centralised fibres .", "the rapid change in the links between nodes has important implications . we looked at some of them earlier this year , such as the order in which contact occur . john tang at the university of cambridge in the uk and pals point out that dynamic nature of networks has been ignored in anti - virus strategies so far .", "that looks set to change . today , tang and co reveal the new tricks they hope will smother this threat to dynamic networks .", "one of the key differences between the way viruses spread on static and dynamic networks is the effect of the order in which infections occur . a seemingly trivial example is that it\u2019s impossible to catch a virus from someone who is not yet infected . and once your link with that person is broken , as happens in dynamic networks , you\u2019re safe . in a static network , by contrast , the links don\u2019t break and you simply become infected later .", "that has important implications for the spread of mobile malware . in any phone network , certain phones make far more connections than others . one traditional approach is to target these nodes with patches that prevent the spread of malware .", "but in a dynamic network the constant rewiring means that these important nodes change too . so the best connected nodes at one instant may not be the best connected at another . clearly , this has to be taken into account in any effective anti - malware strategy .", "so what to do ? tang and co say the answer is to beat the malware at its own game by spreading any patch through the network via the same bluetooth or wifi routes that the virus is using . in that way , the patches should reach the best connected nodes automatically .", "what\u2019s more , since the dynamic network more or less exactly mimics the pattern of face - to - face interactions between humans , wireless viruses spread mainly during weekdays when most human contacts are made . but they are largely dormant during the night when few contacts are made", "that\u2019s significant because it means that any patch can catch up during the night . in fact , tang and co show that their patch can spread at a rate that outpaces any virus .", "that looks to be an interesting development in the cat and mouse race between the virus makers and and breakers . but it seems unlikely to be the last word . it can only be a matter of time before malware developers exploit the techniques outlined by tang and co to spread their viruses more effectively through dynamic networks . and when that happens , the cycle will begin again .", "emerging technology from the arxiv covers the latest ideas and technologies that appear on the physics arxiv preprint server . it is part of the physics arxiv blog . email :", "unlimited online access including articles and video , plus the download with the top tech stories delivered daily to your inbox .", "by signing up you agree to receive email newsletters and notifications from mit technology review . you can unsubscribe at any time . view our privacy policy for more details .", "the mission of mit technology review is to bring about better -

( 2006 ) and rumi et al . ( 2008 ) reported 16 heleobia species for argentina , of which 10 are endemic .", "cochliopidae is a family of rissooidean snails composed of more than 30 genera and more than 260 species that mainly inhabit freshwaters in tropical and temperate regions of america and several regions of eurasia ( hershler & thompson , 1992 ) . the status of this enigmatic family remained unstable during many years , until wilke et al . ( 2001 ) , using molecular tools , confirmed that cochliopidae is a family distinct from hydrobiidae as it is accepted by bouchet & rocroi ( 2005 ) . the monophyly of the family , the consistency of molecular and anatomical characters ( mainly closed spermathecal duct and oviduct jointed directly to the albumen gland ) , and its phylogenetic relationships have been assessed and discussed by liu et al . , 2001 ( as cochliopinae ) and wilke et al . ( 2001 ) who mainly utilized dna sequences of mitochondrial genes . previous attempts to resolve systematic and / or phylogeny of hydrobiids based only on morphological data ( e . g . kabat & hershler , 1993 ; falniowsky & szarowska , 2000 ) poorly resolved the uncertainty due to considerable character convergence and the scarcity of anatomical synapomorphies .", "preliminary studies using scanning electron microscopy ( sem ) performed on shell , penis and radula of many cochliopidae from argentina indicated that i ) the radulae of h . parchappii and h . kuesteri are similar , ii ) although both species penial complexes are similar , there are small differences in the shape and the porosity porous of the papillae , and distal end shape , iii ) the whorls of h . kuesteri are less convex than those of h . parchappii , supporting the possibility that they are different species . the coi sequences analyzed here seemed to reinforce this possibility . however , more detailed anatomical studies , including female genitalia and use of other molecular markers are necessary to solve the question definitively .", "to date , only cazzaniga ( 1982 ) and de francesco and isla ( 2004 ) have carried out studies on population aspects of cochliopidae from argentina . the first author reports on the size structures of austral populations and the latter analyse the reproductive period and the growth range of heleobia parchappii in saline environments of the mar chiquita coastal lagoon ( buenos aires , argentina ) . to date , there are no studies regarding the population dynamics and growth patterns of h . piscium from the argentinean littoral of the r\u00edo de la plata . the aim of the present study is to analyse the basic aspects of its life cycle , focusing on time variations in age structure and the individual growth of this gastropod in natural conditions in coastal drainage channels of the multiple use natural reserve isla mart\u00edn garc\u00eda , where the species attain its largest size .", "heleobia hatcheri ( and the very similar morphotype heleobia sp . ) from cmp , resolved outside cochliopidae . both were integrated in the well - defined tateidae subclade 3 . 2 composed of 3 potamolithus species : p . agapetus ( pilsbry , 1911 ) and p . buschii ( fraunfeld , 1865 ) , sympatric taxa from de la plata river , and p . ribeirensis ( pilsbry , 1911 , sensu davis & pons da silva , 1984 ) , from iporanga river , southern brazil , part of the paran\u00e1 and la plata river drainage systems . \" heleobia hatcheri \" and \" heleobia sp . \" were closely - related to the three potamolithus species studied in this work and these three taxa are more closely linked to tateidae family than to lythoglyphidae , as was pointed out by wilke et al . ( 2013 ) for p . ribeirensis .", "the only description of female genitalia available for the genus corresponds to that of p . ribeirensis ( davis & pons da silva , 1984 ) . while it has served as the basis to define the \" typical \" idealized anatomical ground plan of the lithoglyphidae ( wilke et al . , 2001 ) , it is not incompatible with the characterization of the tateidae female genitalia as \" simple , usually with one distal seminal receptacle and a bursa copulatrix ; ventral channel occasionally separated to form a vestibule \" , ( wilke et al . , 2013 ) . in h . hatcheri the spermathecal tube seems not be separated from the albumen gland , which would distinguish it from the cochliopidae . however a deeper anatomical study of h . hatcheri , with emphasis on the female genitalia , and the incorporation of other mitochondrial markers is necessary to determine the genus and , more importantly , the family to which h . hatcheri belongs .", "cochliopidae tryon , 1866 is a diverse family of caenogastropods that lives in a wide variety of aquatic habitats primarily in the new world ( hershler & thompson 1992 ) . in chile , the species of the group have been traditionally assigned to the genus littoridina souleyet , 1852 using conchological characters ( biese 1944 , 1947 ; stuardo , 1961 ; valdovinos 2006 ) but according to anatomical studies and phylogenetic analysis the majority of them have been reassigned to the genus heleobia stimpson , 1865 ( hershler & thompson 1992 ; collado et al . 2011a ; kroll et al . 2012 ; collado et al . 2013 ; collado et al . 2016 ) . here we formally describe a new species of the genus heleobia from spring 1 in the carcote saltpan , chilean altiplano , based on molecular and morphological characters . snails from this locality were previously shown to be distinct based on dna sequences ( collado et al . 2013 ;

the split between these taxa may be the product of vicariance ( severance of a prior drainage connection ) or a separate jump dispersal event . the considerable genetic diversity in tryonia infernalis ( three haplotypes differing by 0 . 6 % mean sequence divergence ) suggests a possibly lengthy history of local differentiation . our findings also identify blue point spring as a new micro - hotspot of groundwater - dependent biodiversity in nevada and will assist ongoing efforts to protect and conserve these imperiled ecosystems .", "html public \" - / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 strict / / en \" \" urltoken \"", "a systematic review of the hydrobiid snails ( gastropoda : rissoidea ) of the great basin , western united states . part ii . genera colligyrus , fluminicola , pristinicola , and tryonia", "javascript is disabled for your browser . some features of this site may not work without it .", "( placed on the official index of rejected and invalid names by iczn opinion 2202 . )", "subgenus paludestrina ( eupaludestrina ) j . mabille , 1877 accepted as heleobia ( eupaludestrina ) j . mabille , 1877 represented as heleobia stimpson , 1865", "species paludestrina antarctica e . a . smith , 1902 accepted as laevilitorina antarctica ( e . a . smith , 1902 ) ( original combination )", "species paludestrina cingulata dall , 1913 \u2020 accepted as hydrobia alexandriensis wenz , 1923 \u2020 ( junior secondary homonym of hydrobia cingulata capellini , 1880 ;

variation in water temperature ranged between 11 . 9 \u00b0c and the values mentioned above ( figure 6 ) . the ph was slightly alkaline during all the sampling period , ranging between 6 . 7 and 7 . 8 . the percentage of dissolved oxygen was very variable throughout the year ( figure 6 ) . the conductivity was low ( 2 . 3 to 178 \u00b5 urltoken \u00961 ) .", "the great variability of the n values ( number of individuals per sampling ) reflected in the histograms could be caused by the strong winds from the south occurring in certain months ( data provided by subprefectura naval argentina , isla mart\u00edn garc\u00eda ) . these winds produced a \" washed \" line on the coastal drainage channels which would explain , in part , the low number of specimens collected during august 2005 and february to march 2006 .", "the pattern of growth population shows a staggered model , with a period of greatest growth extending throughout the entire summer season . this is corroborated by the high growth rate of cohort 1 ( k = 1 . 85 ) .", "the reproductive period took place during six months , from the beginning of summer to the middle of fall , when the egg capsules attached to the surface of the shell of some specimens were observed . this is consistent with the presence of a larger number of individuals of smaller sizes in march , the majority of which belonged to the new cohort . this pattern based on a unique reproductive effort is not similar to that of other cogeneric species already studied ; cazzaniga ( 1981 ) studied the heleobia parchappii in freshwater environments of the south of the province of buenos aires and he reported two spawning peaks in the species ' reproductive cycle . cazzaniga ( 1982 ) pointed out that h . parchappii experienced a marked fluctuation in density , an unstable size structure and a high abundance of young snails in mesohaline environments in austral populations from buenos aires ( argentina ) .", "de francesco and isla ( 2004 ) also describe two main spawning peaks for h . parchappii , one at the beginning of spring and another one during fall , in saline canals of mar chiquita coastal lagoon . according to these authors , the similarity observed in life cycles under different saline conditions invites some speculation about the relative importance of this factor in conditioning the reproductive activity of these snails . the authors have found that the size structure remains relatively stable and that the cohorts can be followed monthly during the year . thus , it appears that salinity does not have a marked influence on the reproductive activity of h . parchappii but does affect population structure . from these works , we can infer that snails from the saline canal attain smaller sizes than those found in freshwater environments from buenos aires province .", "unlike gaillard and castellanos ( 1976 ) , darrigran ( 1995 ) states that h . piscium is an euryhaline species , which inhabits the fluvial - inner zone ( corresponding to isla mart\u00edn garc\u00eda ) ( salinity < 0 . 5\u0089 ) and the fluvial - intermediate zone ( 0 . 5 - 25\u0089 ) of the r\u00edo de la plata .", "although conductivity could not be measured in all studies , it exhibited a great variability throughout the year with values ranging from 0 . 002 to 0 . 18\u0089 , not exceeding the limit percentage of the fluvial - inner zone . conductivity is not the only parameter subjected to variations , even daily variations ; this is due to the fact that the coastal drainage channels , which are subjected to the mild action of the tides and occasional strong southern winds , are also subordinated to variations in the water volume of the drainage channels . this affects not only the conductivity but also several physico - chemical parameters such as ph , percentage of dissolved oxygen , water temperature ( figure 6 ) .", "de francesco ( 2002 ) proposed that heleobia conexa ( gaillard , 1974 ) presents a reproductive pattern similar to that of h . parchappii , which is mostly influenced by water temperature . according to our observations , the water temperature is the parameter that best fits the growth pattern of h . piscium . likewise , we cannot affirm that it has a marked effect on the reproductive cycle and on the species growth , as conductivity does on other species of heleobia .", "no data is available for the comparison among different populations of heleobia piscium in different types of habitat . this is why this study on the annual cycle of natural populations of h . piscium represents a precedent for further investigations related to species biology .", "the reproductive effort of heleobia piscium in natural populations is characterized by having only one long spawning period ; the reproductive season takes place from summer to the middle of fall . it is in the summer when population growth shows the highest peaks and the mean size values fit best the theoretical growth curve .", "renovation of the age structure of the heleobia piscium population is in accordance with the highest levels of water temperature observed from december to march ; this variable appears to be an important factor of mortality , particularly for the largest classes ( see figure 2 ) . therefore , temperature could be a regulating factor for growth and reproductive activity .", "it is not the purpose of this report to explain why heleobia piscium displays only one spawning peak and h . parchappii and h . conexa presents two , since factors probably affecting the spawning activity of these snails are of a diverse nature .", "although variations in saline conditions affect the age structure in heleobia parchappii populations , it appears that these variations do not have a marked influence on its reproductive activity . in h . piscium , this environmental variable does not seem to regulate the reproductive capacity either , since conductivity values were always remarkably low , below the limit percentage of the fluvial - inner zone .", "it is worth mentioning that as heleobia piscium is a poorly studied species with growing sanitary interest , knowledge of it and the analysis of its basic aspects in the dynamics of natural populations become more relevant as a function of future strategies of control .", "acknowledgements \u0096 financial support for this work was provided by an institutional grant from the comisi\u00f3n de investigaciones cient\u00edficas de la provincia de buenos aires ( cic ) ( resolution n\u00ba 694 / 04 ) . the author wish to thanks the staff menbers of the prefecture naval argentina isla mart\u00edn garc\u00eda and lic . l . negrete .", "cazzaniga , nj . , 1981 . estudios bioecol\u00f3gicos de gaster\u00f3podos dulciacu\u00edcolas relacionados con la invasi\u00f3n de canales por malezas acu\u00e1ticas . argentina : universidad nacional de la plata . 169 p .

paleozoic forms ( i . e . ambuloasteroidea , blake and hagdorn 2003 ) .", "however , gale ( following mcknight 1975 ) focuses on the lack of suckered tubefeet in the paxillosida , considering them primitive . as a result , his phylogeny reflects two major groups : a basal paxillosida and the remaining asteroids , all having suckered tubefeet , which he termed superorder surculifera . blake considers suckered tubefeet to be the ancestral condition . his phylogeny reflects two major asteroid groups : superorder forcipulatacea ( forcipulatida + brisingida ) and a clade of the superorders valvatacea + spinulosacea ( valvatida , notomyotida , paxillosida , spinulosida and velatida ) . outgroup comparison with calliasterella and inclusion of the trichasteropsida results in a basal forcipulatacea .", "the differences in these proposed phylogenies highlight questions about asteroid relationships that are still unresolved . the identification of the basal ( neo ) asteroid group has been the driving question of additional studies ( see evidence from molecular characters , below ) . additionally , ordinal definition , particularly for blake ' s valvatida , velatida and spinulosida , is problematic . such problems were not new to blake and gale . although many asteroid groups can be clearly defined morphologically ( forcipulatida , brisingida , notomyotida ) , asteroid morphology is complex and diverse . other groups are less clearly defined .", "additional phylogenetic analyses incorporating molecular data with morphological data ( lafay et al . 1995 ) and using molecular data alone ( wada et al . 1996 ; knott and wray 2000 ) were presented in an effort to resolve phylogenetic arguments . unexpectedly , these studies have done little to elucidate asteroid relationships and may have only added to the confusion .", "lafay et al . ( 1995 ) present an unrooted phylogeny deduced from analysis of a combined morphological data set taken from blake ( 1987 ) and gale ( 1987 ) with unordered character states ( figure 8 ) . although very few taxa were studied , their phylogeny supports the definition of asteroid orders proposed by blake but separates the paxillosida from the valvatida . their analysis with molecular data alone ( sequence data from 28s rrna ) results in several conflicting topologies due to weak phylogenetic signal . most of this signal is masked by that from the morphological data set when the two data sets are combined . however , after evaluating several rooting positions using molecular data from other echinoderms in outgroup comparison , lafay et al . ( 1995 ) conclude that the paxillosida may not be monophyletic and that the paxillosid genus astropecten may be the sister group to the remaining asteroids , reminiscent of gale ' s phylogeny .", "wada et al . ( 1996 ) include more taxa for additional investigation of ordinal monophyly ( figure 9 ) . in multiple analyses of their molecular data set ( sequence data from 12s and 16s rdna ) , they find that paxillosids are paraphyletic with the paxillosid genus luidia as the basal asteroid taxon . in addition , the valvatida is not monophyletic and a forcipulatid clade falls within a group of valvatids , a velatid and spinulosids , a relationship in stark contrast to that proposed by blake ( 1987 ) . further , the spinulosida are never grouped with the velatida , which blake ( 1987 ) proposed as their sister group and which previously were considered a group within the spinulosida ( spencer and wright 1966 , mcknight 1975 , blake 1981a ) .", "knott and wray ( 2000 ) expand taxon sampling even more , but their molecular data set ( sequence data from mitochondrial trna and coi genes ) fails to resolve questions of asteroid phylogeny ( figure 10 ) . significantly , the paxillosida is not basal in their results ( although astropecten is not included ) . the results of different tree reconstruction methods are not in agreement , and basal groupings are only supported by bootstrapping in the neighbor - joining analysis . the proposed phylogeny is similar to blake ( 1987 ) in that two lineages ( one largely of forcipulatids and the other largely of valvatids ) are recovered , but valvatida and velatida are not monophyletic and some velatids plus the spinulosida fall in the forcipulatid clade .", "figure 8 . lafay et al .

[ 8 ]", "the largest of the tiger subspecies , males can be as long as a station wagon ! these tigers also have the palest orange coat and the fewest stripes , to help it blend in with its snow - covered habitat . as it lives in a very cold climate , the siberian tiger\u2019s coat grows longer and thicker than other tiger subspecies , and it develops a layer of fat for insulation . there are less than 400 siberian tigers left in their home range of eastern russia and northeastern china .", "the gestation period in siberian tigers is 3 - 3 . 5 months . female tigers give birth once every two years at any point during the year .", "history records that , during the russian civil war , both the red army and the white army based in vladivostok almost wiped out the local siberian tigers .", "tiger cubs growth rate specifically depends upon their weights . at the time of their birth tiger cubs are around 1 . 8 pounds . after 120 days tiger cubs are around 35 pounds . after 60 days tiger cubs are around 9 . 5 pounds .", "unfortunately , the siberian tiger has faced difficult times , full of threats derived mainly from human activities . the international union for conservation of nature ( iucn ) has classified the siberian tiger as endangered , but in the 1990s it was critically endangered . one of its worst times was in the early twentieth century since in the 1930\u2019s the population fell to about 20 - 30 individuals . a 2005 census estimated a small population of 360 specimens .", "the siberian tiger can down an asian black bear ( ursus thibetanus ) and a brown bear ( ursus arctos ) , if the population of ungulates decreases . however , in such a situation , it more often attacks brown bears near their winter habitats . the siberian tiger is more willing to hunt the bears because they cannot climb trees , contrary to asian black bears , and they prefer more open spaces where they are easier to hunt .", "the siberian tiger was once found all over far east russia , the korean peninsula , and northern china . however , many people hunted these animals not only for the meat , but also their fur for clothing , medicine , and home d\u00e9cor . this drove these tigers almost to extinction . by the 1940s only about 40 siberian tigers were left in the wild . the first country to pass a law that gave these tigers full protection was russia . since a majority of the siberian tigers lived ( and still live ) in russia , by the 1980s there were around 500 of them . when the soviet union fell , the poaching of these tigers grew , but the russian conservation efforts , along with the wwf , have attempted to stabilize the population , keeping the number now around 450 . the siberian tigers\u2019 habitat is limited to the primorski and khabarovski provinces of far east russian and tiny areas of the chinese border . [ 9 ] the biggest threat to siberian tigers is deforestation . a couple other main threats are the excessive hunting of the tiger\u2019s main prey , killing the animal for it body parts to be used in traditional medicines , and habitat loss , which results from fires , logging and development of cities . the wwf along with the russian animal conservation and scientist have been working on several ways to protect the siberian tigers and help the subspecies prosper . they have secured the siberian tigers\u2019 habitats . these include protected areas and conservation leases . they have also found millions of acres that can sustainable manage the tigers . siberian tigers are also being placed into zoos and preserves where they can be watch , protected , and their reproduction can be managed . people are also working with hunting communities to protect the animals like deer , elk , and boar that the siberian tiger hunts . the wwf is trying to create better logging and hunting laws that will be reinforced to protect the tigers\u2019 habitats . they also advocate the importance of saving the siberian tiger to people . they help host an annual \u201ctiger day\u201d in vladivostok and other cities in the primorskii provinces , where the siberian tiger population is high . [ 10 ]", "siberian tigers are distinguishable by their striped fur . similar to people\u2019s unique fingerprints , no two tigers have the same striped pattern . siberian tigers differ from other tigers because they have fewer , paler stripes , and they also have manes . the mane , in addition to their thick fur , helps keep them warm .", "bengal tigers are second only to the siberian tiger in size . in fact , some bengal tigers from the indian state of assam are as large as siberian tigers . there is wide variation in their striping patterns . a specific feature of bengal tigers is their black ear . the large tiger weights around 160 - 260 kg . its ranges are in small protected areas in india , nepal , bhutan , bangladesh , and western forest of myanmar .", "\" they ( the attacks ) were an avoidable tragedy , \" says wu zhigang , a researcher with the jilin provincial institute of forestry science and one of the foremost scholars in siberian tiger protection . \" both the tiger and the farmers would have been safe if not for the snares .", "size : length of the siberian tiger body , without tail \u2013 160 - 200 cm , length of tail about 100 cm . weight of an adult animal can reach 300 kg . the largest weight recorded \u2013 384 kg .", "siberian tigers were once found throughout the russian far east , northern china and the korean peninsula . by the 1940s hunting had driven the tiger to the brink of extinction , with no more than 40 remaining in the wild .", "rigezoo cata \" tigers are special animals . they rule in asia . siberian tigers have really shown us any animal can survive and adapt in any climate . \"", "environmental officials from china and russia have decided to work together to improve the protection of siberian tigers and amur leopards in order to save the two endangered species .", "only 300 are believed to be living in the wild , with 20 in northeast china . siberian tigers are one of the world ' s rarest animal species .", "the siberian tiger feeds on several animal species . an individual typically consumes musk deer , manchuria wapitis , gorals , moose , wild boars , siberian roe deer , sika deer , hares , rabbits , pikas and even salmon , and other species of ungulate animals . according to a study carried out in the 1990s , its distribution seems to be related to the distribution of its favorite prey .", "we can save wild tigers . in 2010 , the 13 tiger range countries committed to tx2\u2014to double wild tiger numbers by 2022 , the next year of the tiger . wwf is driving tx2 forward .", "the siberian tiger is the largest of all of the wild cats in the world . also known as the amur tiger or by its scientific name , panthera tigris altaica , this magnificent animal is naturally found predominantly in the sikhote - alin mountain range in the far east of russia . of course , there are also siberian tigers in zoos , parks and conservation areas around the world . today , there are only about 400 siberians to be found in the wild .", "\" the siberian tigers once wandered in tianqiaoling area but became extinct in the mid 1980s , \" said wu zhigang , a researcher with the provincial academy of forestry .", "wwf\u2019s conservation efforts to entice siberian tigers back to china over the last six to seven years have largely focused on bringing back the deer that the tigers prey on .", "zhang , x . , chen , y . , zhu , h .

kadina , wallaroo and moonta . within four years the three towns had a combined population of 8 , 000 . cornish miners - world famous for their skill over thousands of years - flocked to the area . under mine manager ' captain ' hr hancock , the towns of the northern yorke peninsula came to be not only ' the copper triangle ' but also ' little cornwall ' , as hughes and hancock imported thousands more miners direct from cornwall . when mining collapsed in 1923 , the cartoonist and former mine captain , oswald pryor , made the yorke peninsula ' s cornish - australian miners world famous through his ' cousin jack ' and ' cousin jenny ' cartoons .", "a similar mixed set of outlooks existed in religious circles . although the cornish miners under the pious captain hancock formed a community who were 80 per cent methodist church members , the peninsula was also the home of a strong catholic community with an early convent school at kadina in the care of mary mackillop ' s josephite nuns . at wallaroo a group of welsh miners established a welsh speaking congregational church . an array of visiting evangelists contributed to often spectacular religious revivals . the cornish were proud of their strong historic associations with wesleyan methodism and replicated larger versions of their chapels on the soil of australia which were funded by the local mineral wealth . but despite the strength of teetotal methodism , kadina witnessed two ' beer strikes ' protesting at the local price of alcohol , in 1902 and 1920 . and wallaroo was the home of the only south australian woman ever to be sentenced to death - the accidental murderer , elizabeth woolcock .", "cornish stock was imported into north america , where they provided genetic material for the meaty broiler chickens . continued selection for broad breasts has increased the percentage of the body that is white meat , the part of the chicken that is prized most by north americans . the story of the development of the chicken meat industry shows how chickens have moved from one continent to another and how humans have changed the function of the chicken in the process ( latshaw & musharaf ) .", "but at the same time , this freedom comes with a cost . and the cost is you ' re increasingly locked into the decisions of the company whose platform you use . and so the headphone jack , which -

together as people engaged in friendly conversation and reunited with neighbors . groups took up benches in the park , found their way into the cathedral , or strolled pensively down the sidewalks on this reflective holiday .", "this kind of intraspecific aggression is common , quick , and mostly results in no physical harm , so what\u2019s the motive behind it ? the dry season is a tough time for these insect and aquatic invertebrate eaters\u2014their food supply is shrinking and their population is becoming denser as everyone crowds around the water holes . could these two factors\u2014food availability and density\u2014play a role in triggering aggression ? this is the question that i along with two fellow classmates pursued for our four - day independent research project at palo verde national park .", "first , let\u2019s get up to speed on a little jacana biology . during the wet ( breeding ) season , it\u2019s clear to see why jacanas might act aggressively toward each other . exhibiting a polyandrous mating system , the females hold large megaterritories and two to four males hold smaller territories within that of their breeding female . females defend their territory against other females , and males exclude other males . once chicks hatch , both males and females ( but much moreso males ) defend their offspring against predators . in short , territoriality and chick defense describe aggression during the wet season , but it\u2019s still unclear as to why jacanas exhibit aggressive behavior during the dry season .", "for our project , we observed 74 jacanas over four days , going out to the marsh for three hours each morning and afternoon . in the field , we would select a jacana arbitrarily to be our focal bird for that trial , and each trial lasted 10 minutes . next , we assigned roles : one person to be the data recorder , one peck rate monitor , and one distance measurer . to measure perceived habitat quality , the peck rate monitor glued their eyes to binoculars and counted the number of times the focal bird pecked at the water / substrate over 30 seconds . this measurement was taken once every minute for the duration of the 10 - minute trial , and it gave us an idea of how much that bird valued the habitat\u2014lots of pecks implied there was a high chance of getting food , and few pecks meant that there wasn\u2019t much there to peck at . to measure density , the distance measurer counted the number of other jacanas within a 3 - meter radius of our focal bird , and also estimated the distance from the focal bird to the nearest jacana . after 10 minutes , we moved on to another focal bird and rotated jobs .", "note that the distance measurer had to estimate distances visually , as it would be highly disruptive to tromp out there and drag a tape measurer from bird to bird . this meant that the three of us had to undergo \u201cdistance training . \u201d in the grassy airstrip adjacent to the marsh , one person would set up two flags and measure the distance between them using a tape measurer without the other two looking . then , standing at a range of 5 - 20m back ( to emulate different scenarios in the field ) , the other two people would guess the distance to the nearest 0 . 1m . by no surprise , we were all rather horrendous at first ( especially when the flags were set up vertically , with one in a plane directly behind the other ) , but after many repeated trials , all of us were able to estimate the distance correctly on average to within 20cm !", "after four days of observing jacanas , we got some interesting results . perceived habitat quality did not seem to influence likelihood of aggression , but density was more informative . the average density immediately preceding an aggressive encounter was higher than the average density overall ( for all birds at all times during their 10 - minute trials ) . this suggests that crowding might be a trigger for aggression . however , if the end goal of aggression were to increase an individual jacana\u2019s \u201cpersonal space , \u201d we would expect its subordinate to be farther away after the aggressive encounter . instead , we found that the distance between two birds engaging in aggression decreased just as often as it increased . therefore , jacanas might not be concerned with crowding per se , but rather they defend a particular foraging site ( whether or not it presently has food ) . in other words , perhaps it doesn\u2019t matter how close your neighbor is to you , so long as he is outside the bounds of where you want to look for food .", "throughout the course of the study , we got the chance to become acquainted with the neighborhood at the marsh . spoonbills and jabirus frequented the deeper edges of the water while the ducks tended to hang around the shallower areas , along with our jacanas .", "one of our favorite characters at the marsh was the not - so - friendly neighborhood caiman . every once in a while , we\u2019d see something log - like moving through the marsh just a little too quickly and with a few too uniform ridges to be a log . then it would stop , raise its head straight out of the water , and make several chomps at the air before slowly submerging itself back underwater . we all jeered at this attempt at ferocity , given that the caiman\u2019s mouth looked barely large enough to fit a small sparrow , let alone any of these waterbirds . however , we did once find it feeding rather clumsily on what appeared to be a duck carcass ( whether the caiman actually killed the duck or found it dead already is unclear ) .", "and the white - faced capuchins made lovely company , whether they were playing , jumping through the trees , or , quite often , taking a late - morning snooze .", "antlions are not actually ants ( and they\u2019re certainly not lions ) ; rather , they are insects in the order neuroptera , related to lacewings and dobsonflies . this morning , we set out to study the antlion larvae which burrow underground and turn ordinary soil into a sudden death trap . while you very rarely get a look at the antlion itself , you can clearly see evidence of where it\u2019s hiding .", "look for small ( ~ 1 . 5 in . diameter ) funnel - shaped holes in the ground , then stick your nose right up close , wait a beat or two , and see tiny bits of dirt or rock launch themselves out from the base of the funnel . these silent predators sense vibrations of termites , ants , and other prey near their hole , and then knock them down into the funnel by bombing them with clumps of soil . once the prey is deep enough down the hole , the antlion uses its mouthparts to quickly grab its meal and pull it under the soil . viewed from above , it looks like the victim is being dragged against its every effort into the underworld .", "one upside to the often long recovery times is that when the antlion finally does start digging again , it comes as an exciting surprise . there , in the midst of completely still soil , a grain of sediment suddenly wiggles . then the 3 - square millimeters around it start to pulse , as if something is about to burst from the ground . instead , that tiny bit of ground starts to sink , and you see the tracks made by the antlion\u2019s tunneling . the antlion digs in spirals to form its funnel , flinging dirt in a firework - like display .", "the results from our short study were interesting : antlions tended to build smaller traps than their original after the first disturbance , but repeated disturbances had no further effect on their rebuilt trap sizes . furthermore , feeding termites to the antlions had no effect on their ability to recover . in terms of ecology , this implies a trade -

over time , the phonetic alphabet has evolved . the phonetic alphabet is a system created by the nato allies in the 1950s that would be intelligible and pronounceable to all nato allies in the heat of battle . it has another name - the radiotelephony spelling alphabet . it requires words to be spelled out by their letters ; for example , arm becomes alpha romeo mike , and south becomes sierra oscar uniform tango hotel . all the letters sound different , so there is no confusion over long distances over what people are saying . the reason that any phonetic alphabet is ( or was ) used is because telephone , radio and walkie - talkie communications had the habit of crackling over long distances , blotting out whole words or even sentences . the normal alphabet cannot be used , because some letters , for example p , b , c and d sound similar , and over long distances were indistinguishable , so a new method had to be found . when the code was invented it was also considered that consonants are the most difficult to hear against a noisy background . hence the sequence of vowels in the phonetic code played an important role when the code was invented , so that when you hear a noisy ' - oo - oo ' you know the letter is a z . the vowel - sequence thing works for most ( though not all ) combinations of letters . all of the words are recognisable by native english speakers because english must be used upon request for communication between an aircraft and a control tower whenever two nations are involved , regardless of their native languages . but it is only required internationally , not domestically , thus if both parties to a radio conversation are from the same country , then another phonetic alphabet of that nation ' s choice may be used .", "that , however , was not the appropriate response according to his trainer , nicky henderson . asked if punters should be concerned for his cheltenham chance in light of this performance , henderson looked a little shocked and replied : \" not at all . not one bit . no . we ' re on schedule . \"", "\" he ' s a stuffy devil , \" the trainer said . \" i mean , that ' s why he had to have a run . he was having a great old heave in here [ the winner ' s enclosure ] . but i know what he ' s like .", "\" [ barry geraghty , his jockey , ] said he was taking blows all the way through the race . i ' m not saying he didn ' t enjoy this but that is hard work . \"", "\" no way would i run them in that . but you have to keep at this guy . he had to have a run . he wanted the experience , yes , but he also badly needed a race . \"", "henderson ' s title rival , paul nicholls , also had a single winner on this saturday , with saphir du rheu in the welsh champion hurdle . the five -

off concept in omp99 was that , if a viable pilchard fishery was to be guaranteed , limitations on juvenile pilchard bycatch , necessary to protect the directed pilchard fishery , would lead to smaller anchovy catches than that resource could actually sustain . in order to address this concern , the concept of a sub - season later in the year to target \u201cclean\u201d anchovy shoals was introduced . there are a few reasons why such an additional sub - season provides a practical basis to enhance anchovy catches .", "figure 6 is a plot of the m 1 trade - off curve along with that associated with omp99 . the data updates and additional features now incorporated ( m 1 ) lead to a considerable improvement in the average catches possible from the fishery . the bars around the \u03b2 = 0 . 1 point on the m 1 curve emphasize the considerable variation in annual catches associated with such mps . figure 7 illustrates the improvement in performance in terms of average catches over that of omp99 as successive changes were introduced when developing the mps presented in this paper . the additional sub - season allows further utilization of anchovy . it may lead to less anchovy , and hence less pilchard bycatch , being taken in the normal season , which allows for higher pilchard - directed catches , and thus improved utilization of the pilchard resource . a further general improvement in the utilization of both species is evident when account is taken of implementation error ( allowing for the possibility that the pilchard tab may not be fully utilized ) . the consequence of this is either to allow for more pilchard - directed catch ( because in many years , not all the pilchard tab will be used ) , or alternatively to take more anchovy catch ( hence using a greater proportion of the pilchard tab on average ) .", "pilchard and anchovy form the mainstay of the south african pelagic fishery , and together with round herring ( etrumeus whiteheadi ) have accounted for more than 90 % of the mass of all small pelagic fish landed annually since the mid - 1970s ( figure 1 ) . the rapid rise of the pilchard fishery in the mid - to late 1950s , targeting mainly adult fish for canning , was followed by a collapse by the mid - 1960s , and a move to anchovy through the introduction of nets with smaller mesh ( crawford et al . , 1980 ) . the anchovy fishery targeted mainly juveniles , which were processed in reduction plants ( to provide fishmeal , oil , and fertilizer ) . pilchard and anchovy are the only small pelagic species currently managed by a tac , with separate tacs set for each .", "j . a . a . de oliveira , d . s . butterworth ; developing and refining a joint management procedure for the multispecies south african pelagic fishery , ices journal of marine science , volume 61 , issue 8 , 1 january 2004 , pages 1432\u20131442 , urltoken", "by volume . and the industry commenced in south australia in 1991 with an annual catch quota of 1 , 000 tones . the fishery\u2019s annual quota was set at 36 , 000 tonnes in 2003 . and the annual quota had increased to 36 , 000 tonnes by 2014 .", "increases ( reflecting better utilization of the anchovy resource , which is possible because bycatch of juvenile pilchard is limited to a maximum of 2000 t in the additional sub -

ridden by the january / february tac / bs ) . the pilchard tac remained in force ( without alteration ) for the remainder of the fishing season ( officially ending in october , though usually extended to december ) , but the anchovy tac was revised within the year for the following reasons :", "subspecies sardinops sagax sagax is not universally recognized . a recent genetic analysis ( grant et al . 1998 ) of the status of sardinops populations indicates that there are three subspecies : s . s . ocellatus from south africa , australia and new zealand , s . s . sagax from the southeastern and northeastern pacific , and s . s . melanostictus from the northwest pacific . other authors consider each subspecies as a valid species .", "the value of output generated directly in south australia and the eyre and western region by sardine fishing enterprises summed to $ 21 . 0 million in 2012 / 13 . flow -

testing framework ( for details of this application , see de oliveira , 2003 ) forms a key part of the development of a mp , and allows the performance of alternative mps to be compared on the basis of summary performance statistics ( described in table 2 ) .", "management procedure rules in the form of tac / b equations and constraints . definitions of all symbols are provided in table 2 . note that \u201cexceptional circumstances\u201d provisions exist , so the tac and associated constraint calculations are adjusted downwards if the november survey results for pilchard or anchovy ( when calculating first - stage tacs ) , or if the projected survey result for anchovy ( when calculating second - and third - stage tacs for anchovy ) are below certain threshold levels ( 150 000 t for the pilchard survey result , and 400 000 t for both the actual and projected anchovy survey results ) . de oliveira ( 2003 ) provides more details of the meta - rules for \u201cexceptional circumstances\u201d , which have been omitted from the equations below for simplicity . adjustments in tacs during the year , if applicable , may only be upwards , not downwards , because by the time the 2 nd tac is set , the 1 st tac could have been fully caught .", "this framework essentially consists of an operating model to simulate the \u201ctrue\u201d dynamics of the resource , an assessment procedure used to estimate the parameters of this operating model , the mp rules ( which include the tac / b equations and constraints ) , and the summary performance statistics . in this case , 500 simulations of 20 - year projection periods were carried out , each simulation representing a plausible \u201cstate of nature\u201d ( computationally , for each simulation , parameters of the operating model take on values from a single realization of the joint probability distribution given by the assessment procedure ) . data typical of the type required by the mp rules in practice ( and subject to the same error structure ) were generated from the operating model and passed to the mp rules , which advised the tacs and passed them back to the operating model . at this stage , implementation error can be taken into account . for example , in this case the operating model generated future juvenile pilchard : anchovy catch ratios , to simulate the pilchard bycatch actually taken , which could turn out to be less than the tab .", "neritic ( ref . 11230 ) . a coastal species that forms large schools ( ref . 188 ) . occur at temperatures ranging from 16\u00b0 to 23\u00b0c in summer and from 10\u00b0 to 18\u00b0c in winter . feed mainly on planktonic crustaceans . young fish feed on zooplankton such as copepod and adults on phytoplankton ( ref . 39882 ) . oviparous , with pelagic eggs , and pelagic larvae ( ref . 265 ) . possibly can live up to 25 years ( ref . 265 ) . in the california region , pilchards make northward migrations early in summer and travel back south again in autumn . with each year of life , the migration becomes farther ( ref . 6885 ) . marketed fresh , frozen or canned . utilized mainly for fish meal ; but also eaten fried and broiled ( ref . 9988 ) . main source of landing : ne pacific : mexico ( ref . 4931 ) .", "in the us , the pacific sardine is currently a limited entry fishery with a total allowable catch ( quotas ) , however the limited entry permit covers all pelagic finfish , not just sardines . there are 65 permit holders , but it is unclear how many boats target which species ( pfmc 2011 ) . sardines are typically caught with purse seines , though some vessels are transitioning to drum seines ( pfmc 2011 ) . the historical hubs are still in southern california and monterey bay , but astoria has recently supported a major fishery . about 85 % of the catch is processed and shipped to china , japan and south korea ( caopc 2013 ) . the other 15 % typically composes the bait fishery . bycatch is negligible ( less than 1 % ) , though there may be impacts on california sea lions that have come to rely on sardines as an important food source ( hill et al . 2015 ) .", "a further feature that also formed part of omp02 , but was beyond the scope of this paper to consider , was a change in the way the trade - off decision ( i . e . the point on the m 1 trade - off curve eventually selected and implemented as omp02 ) was made : from \u201cexternally\u201d ( as was done in the past for the fishery as a whole by the responsible government minister ) to \u201cinternally\u201d ( separately by each individual rights - holder , based on their own preferences ) . in a highly divergent industry , with some participants having sole interests in either canning ( pilchard ) or reduction ( anchovy ) operations , this was seen as a powerful tool to accommodate such differing interests in the two resources .", ", so points on the trade - off curve are determined by either the pilchard or the anchovy ( or both ) depletion risk constraints being met . the specific choices of 0 . 1 and 0 . 3 duplicated levels considered appropriate in the formulation of previous omps . the associated abundance threshold for anchovy was , however , moved lower ( from 0 . 2 k to 0 . 15 k ) to allow for the fact that the extent of natural fluctuations in anchovy abundance had been estimated to be higher than previously believed ( which meant in turn that the resource is robust to fluctuations down to lower levels of abundance than had previously been thought ) . the effect of this tuning is that , as \u03b2 is increased ( moving from the bottom right to the top left of the trade -

living metamorphosed males have a unique toothy bone articulating with the anterior ends of both jaws called the upper and lower denticulars ; their denticles form into rows and are counted . scales are often modified into skin spinules ( = prickles or dermal spines elsewhere ) , or greatly enlarged bucklers ( himantolophidae ) .", "both genera of the family are represented in all three major oceans of the world . females of gigantactis have been reported from as far north as southern greenland , with the southernmost record close to 50\u00b0s in the atlantic sector of the southern ocean . the known distribution of rhynchactis is restricted to tropical and subtropical regions between about 30\u00b0n and 10\u00b0s . the great majority of the recorded metamorphosed specimens of the family have been captured in nets fished in maximum depths exceeding 1000 m . gigantactinids thus appear to be among the deepest -

fin rays , ( 3 ) a loss of jaw teeth , and ( 4 ) an increase in morphological complexity of the luring apparatus , in this case , reflected in a general tendency to increase the number of distal filaments of the esca and filaments of the illicium . giagantactis longicirra appears to be the least derived member of the genus , having the shortest illicium , the greatest number of longitudinal series of dentary teeth , the highest dorsal - ray count , and the least number of distal escal filaments . members of the g . macronema group ( g . macronema , g . microdontis , and g . ios ) are the most derived , having the longest illicium , the fewest series and total number of dentary teeth , the lowest dorsal -

sea ceratioidei is the most phylogenetically derived ( bertelsen , 1984 ; pietsch , 1984 ) . ceratioidei are distributed throughout the world\u2019s oceans below a depth of 300 m . with 160 species , it constitutes by far the most species - rich vertebrate taxon within the bathypelagic zone and below\u2014more than twice as many families and genera and more than three times the number of species as the cetomimoidei , the next most species - rich deep - sea vertebrate taxon ( see paxton , 1998 ; herring , 2002 ) . at the same time , new species are being added to the suborder at a steady if not increasing rate .", "the internal structure of ceratioid escae is infinitely more complex , involving a confusing array of bacteria - filled vesicles , light - absorbing pigment layers , reflecting tissues , tubular light - guiding structures , nerves , blood vessels , and smooth muscle fibers ( munk and bertelsen , 1980 ; munk , 1988 , 1998 , 1999 ; herring and munk , 1994 ; munk and herring , 1996 ; munk et al . , 1998 ) . there is some evidence also that ceratioid escae contain pheromone - producing secretory glands that function to attract a conspecific male ( munk , 1992 ) , but the true nature and adaptive significance of these structures and most of the other internal parts of escae are unknown .", "in addition to the esca , all 23 currently recognized species of the ceratioid genus linophryne ( family linophrynidae ) bear an elaborate bioluminescent hyoid barbel , the light of which does not originate from symbiotic luminescent bacteria but rather from a complex array of intrinsic , intracellular , paracrystalline photogenic granules ; the bacteria - filled esca is ectodermal in origin , whereas the barbel light organ appears to be derived from the mesoderm ( hansen and herring , 1977 ) . this remarkable dual system , involving two entirely separate mechanisms of light production , is unique among animals .", "in summary , ceratioid anglerfishes are among the most intriguing of all animals , possessing a host of spectacular morphological , behavioral , and physiological innovations found nowhere else . the suborder is taxonomically diverse : with 160 currently recognized species ( and many more certain to be discovered in the future ) , it forms a major contribution to the biodiversity of the deep - sea . it is exceedingly widespread geographically , occurring in deep waters of all major oceans and seas of the world , from high arctic latitudes to the southern ocean ; while some species appear to be almost cosmopolitan in distribution , many others have surprisingly small , restricted , vertical and horizontal ranges . their relative abundance , high species diversity , and trophic position as the top primary carnivores in meso - and bathypelagic communities make them important ecologically . their unique mode of reproduction has significant biomedical implications to the fields of endocrinology and immunology . yet , despite these many aspects of biological interest and importance , as well as a large amount of revisionary work published in the 1970s and early 1980s , including repeated attempts to resolve phylogenetic relationships , ceratioid anglerfishes have remained poorly known .", "a suborder of lophiiforms unique and derived in lacking pelvic fins ( except in larval and newly metamorphosed caulophrynidae ) , pelvic bones reduced or absent ; extremely sexually dimorphic , males dwarfed , a fraction of size of females . spinous dorsal - fin of two spines ( the illicium and second cephalic spine ) , both supported by a single pterygiophore ; anteriormost dorsal - fin spine modified to serve as a lure , emerging from dorsal surface of cranium ( somewhat behind cranium in bufoceratias , from roof of mouth in thaumatichthyidae , absent in neoceratiidae ) ; second dorsal - fin spine reduced to a tiny remnant ( but relatively well developed in adolescent diceratiidae and ceratiidae , absent in neoceratiidae and linophrynidae ) , embedded beneath skin of head and lying on , or fused to , dorsal surface of pterygiophore just behind base of illicial bone ; postcephalic , spinous dorsal - fin absent ; palatine teeth absent ; interhyal without medial , posterolaterally directed process ; ceratobranchial v toothless , reduced to a slender rod - shaped element in most families , represented by tiny remnants in the gigantactinidae ; epibranchial i simple , without ligamentous attachment to epibranchial ii ; pharyngobranchial iv absent ; cleithral spine absent ; interopercle reduced , elongate and narrow ; subopercle with ascending process absent or reduced to a small spine or projection detached from opercle ; gill filaments present as holobranchs on gill arches ii and iii , extending as hemibranchs onto proximal end of arch i in some families ( i . e . , caulophrynidae , himantolophidae , melanocetidae , diceratiidae , some oneirodidae , centrophrynidae , and neoceratiidae ) , and as hemibranchs on arch iv ; pseudobranch absent ( tiny remnants present in some gigantactis ) ; swimbladder absent .", "males with elements of cephalic dorsal - fin spines greatly reduced , remnants embedded beneath skin of head ; eyes and olfactory organs greatly enlarged in most taxa ; tip of snout and chin bearing hooked denticular teeth , used for attachment to females ; in some families and genera attachment becomes parasitic through fusion of male and female tissue .", "females with body short and deep , almost spherical in most families , but elongate and somewhat laterally compressed in thaumatichthyidae , centrophrynidae , ceratiidae , gigantactinidae , neoceratiidae , and some oneirodidae ; head length usually greater than 40 % sl , but only about 25 % in elongate species ; mouth moderate to extremely large ( compared to other lophiiforms ) , length of premaxilla as little as 10 % sl ( in some gigantactinidae ) to as great as 40 % sl ( in some linophrynidae ) ; cleft of mouth nearly horizontal ( e . g . , thaumatichthyidae , centrophrynidae , and gigantactinidae ) or oblique to almost vertical ( e . g . , melanocetidae and ceratiidae ) .", "sexual dimorphism extreme : males dwarfed , those of most genera reaching a maximum standard length of only 6 - 8 % of that of females , and less than 25 % of that of the largest females of genera for which mature females are known ; body elongate , head less than 40 % sl ; mouth small , length of premaxilla usually less than 15 % sl ; cleft of mouth horizontal . metamorphosed males of all families with hooked denticular teeth apparently adapted especially for gripping the skin of females ; becoming permanently attached and parasitic in caulophrynidae , ceratiidae , neoceratiidae , linophrynidae , and the oneirodid genera bertella and leptacanthichthys .", "fin - ray counts the same for males and females , highly variable : dorsal rays 3 - 8 in most families , 11 - 13 in neoceratiidae , and 12 - 22 in caulophrynidae and melanocetidae ; anal rays 3 - 7 in most families , 5 - 19 in caulophrynidae , and 10 - 13 in neoceratiidae ; caudal rays nearly always 9 , but 8 in the ceratiid genus cryptopsaras and 10 in some specimens of neoceratiidae ; pectoral rays 12 - 30 . pelvic fins absent ( except in larval and early metamorphosis stages of caulophrynidae ) . rays of unpaired fins sometimes greatly elongate ( e . g . , in females of caulophrynidae and gigantactinidae ) and often not interconnected , or interconnected with extremely thin , transparent , membrane - like tissue . caudal fin rounded in nearly all families , but emarginate in some gigantactinidae ; caudal rays of some large individuals of ceratiidae terminating in spherical skin - covered ossifications .", "coloration of males and females usually uniform dark brown to black over entire head , body , and fins ; dermis everywhere unpigmented and translucent in the linophrynid genus haplophryne .", "in some ceratioid taxa , the male ' s attachment to the female is followed by fusion of epidermal and dermal tissues and , eventually , by a connection of the circulatory systems so that the male becomes permanently dependent on the female for blood - transported nutrients , while the host female becomes a kind of self - fertilizing hermaphrodite ( regan , 1925a , b , 1926 ; parr , 1930 ; regan and trewavas , 1932 ; bertelsen , 1951 ; pietsch , 1975 , 1976 ; munk and bertelsen , 1983 ; munk , 2000 ) . permanent attachment is usually accomplished by means of separate outgrowths from the snout and tip of the lower jaw of the male , both of which eventually fuse with the skin of the female . in some species a papilla of female tissue protrudes into the mouth of the male , sometimes appearing to completely occlude the pharynx . the heads of some males become broadly fused to the skin of the female , extending from the tip of the lower jaw to the rear of the skull , appearing as if embedded or absorbed by their mate , while in others , the male is carried at the tip of an elongate , cylindrical stalk of female tissue .", "increasing considerably in size once fused , their volume becoming much greater than free - living males of the same species , and being otherwise completely unable to acquire nutrients on their own , the males are considered to be parasites . they apparently remain alive and reproductively functional as long as the female lives , participating in repeated spawning events . a single male per female appears to be the rule in some taxa , but in others multiple attachments are relatively common , with as many as eight coupled to a single host ( saruwatari et al . , 2001 ) .", "since its discovery some 80 years ago ( saemundsson , 1922 ; regan , 1925a , b ) , the story of sexual parasitism in ceratioid anglerfishes has become a part of common scientific knowledge . however , the known facts concerning this remarkable reproductive mode have never been thoroughly and satisfactorily analyzed , despite the work of bertelsen ( 1951 ) and more recently of munk and bertelsen ( 1983 ) , munk ( 2000 ) , and pietsch ( 2005 ) . the physiological mechanisms ( endocrinological and immunological ) that allow for sexual parasitism , which could be of significant biomedical importance , have never been explored .", "males of the caulophrynid genus robia , the single known female of which has dorsal -

because with the exception of the largemouth bass spring spawning period , prey species habits and movement control a majority of largemouth bass location and behavior ( i . e . , find the bait and you find the bass ) . this article focuses on the life history of the primary prey species at sam rayburn and toledo bend reservoirs : gizzard and threadfin shad .", "description : the elongated fin on the dorsal fins gives the threadfin its name . the mouth is terminal and the lower part of the upper jaw is not notched . the anal fin has 20 to 28 rays ; the dorsal , 10 to 13 rays . color is bluish gray on the back with a persistent black or purple spot just behind the head . the lower side is silver to creamy white . the fins have a yellow tint , which gives it the local name of \u201cyellowtails\u201d ) .", "gizzard shad of all ages are extremely fragile , and handling them or keeping them in captivity for controlled laboratory testing is difficult even under the best of circumstances ( shoemaker 1942 ; bodola 1965 ; reutter and herdendorf 1974 ) ; consequently , many specific habitat requirements can only be assumed from field observations , and few or no quantitative data are available for most habitat variables . comprehensive life history and habitat information was given by bodola ( 1965 ) , jester and jensen ( 1972 ) , and miller ( 1960 ) .", "we analyzed data on spring and summertime larval and juvenile fish distribution and abundance in the upper san francisco estuary ( sfe ) , california between 1995 and 2001 . the upper sfe includes the tidal freshwater areas of the sacramento - san joaquin delta downstream to the euryhaline environment of san pablo bay . the sampling period included years with a variety of outflow conditions . fifty taxa were collected using a larval tow net . two common native species , delta smelt hypomesus transpacifucus and longfin smelt spirinchus thaleichthys , and four common alien taxa , striped bass morone saxatilis , threadfin shad dorosoma petenense , gobies of the genus tridentiger , and yellowfin goby acanthogobins flavimanus , were selected for detailed analysis . outflow conditions had a strong influence on the geographic distribution of most of the species , but distribution with respect to the 2 psu isohaline ( x2 ) was not affected . the distribution patterns of delta smelt , longfin smelt , and striped bass were consistent with larvae moving from upstream freshwater spawning areas to down - stream estuarine rearing areas . there were no obvious relationships of outflow with annual abundance indices . our results support the idea of using x2 as an organizing principle in understanding the ecology of larval fishes in the upper sfe . additional years of sampling will likely lead to additional insights into the early life history of upper sfe fishes . ?

( 2011b ) and costello et al . ( 2012 ) predicted numbers of undescribed species based on the assumption that long - term declines in the number of species described per taxonomist are caused by a declining pool of undiscovered species . using this approach , costello et al . ( 2012 ) were led to conclude that there were only 1 . 8\u20132 . 0 million species on earth . this number is remarkably low given that about 1 . 9 million species have already been described ( chapman 2009 ) and thus suggests that only few species remain to be discovered . furthermore , their estimate contrasts starkly with those others , including mora et al . ( 2011 ; 8 . 7 million species on earth ) , chapman ( 2009 ; 10 million species ) and grimaldi and engel ( 2005 ; 4 million species of insects alone ) .", "there are surprisingly few studies that have measured the quality of species descriptions , and , to our knowledge , none that have assessed the relationship between quality and revision . in a study of dinosaur descriptions , benton ( 2008 ) found that the type material of new species has become more complete since the 1950s . for birds , it has been claimed that the quality of descriptions has declined ( lecroy and vuilleumier 1992 ) but this claim has been challenged ( collar 1999 ) and neither of these views were supported by quantitative data .", "in addition , we examine the relative importance of descriptions and revisions in taxonomic progress . the importance of revisionary taxonomy is well known among taxonomists ( e . g . , wheeler and cracraft 1997 ; raczkowski and wenzel 2007 ) but often fails to be appreciated by others , including macroecologists and biodiversity scientists . pimm et al . ( 2010 ) , joppa et al . ( 2011a ) , and costello et al . ( 2012 ) based their conclusions on description dates and original authorship of taxa that are currently recognized as species ( i . e . , after revision by subsequent taxonomists ) . this approach confounds descriptive and revisionary taxonomy , and does not accurately reflect either type of taxonomy . importantly , description is not enough . even if all species have been described ( i . e . , named ) , this does not necessarily mean that all species have been correctly delimited and properly documented . if past taxonomic activity has been biased against cryptic species ( blackburn and gaston 1995 ; bickford et al . 2007 ) , or towards lumping distinctive taxa in widespread polytypic species ( sangster 2009 ) , the total number of species may still be greatly underestimated .", "this study focuses on birds because birds are often considered to be the taxonomically most mature group of animals ( e . g . , mayr 1982 ; price 1996 ) . if a diminishing pool of missing species limits taxonomic progress , one might expect this limitation to be most severe in the best - studied groups , including birds .", "the quality of species descriptions was studied in 481 extant bird taxa that were originally described as species in the period 1935\u20132009 . these represent all species described during this period . type descriptions published between 1935 and 1990 were identified using two partially overlapping datasets , the peters checklist ( peters 1937\u20131951 ; mayr and greenway 1960 , 1962 ; mayr and paynter 1964 ; paynter 1967\u20131970 ; mayr and cottrell 1979 ; traylor 1979 ; mayr and cottrell 1986 ) and a series of inventories of new species descriptions ( zimmer and mayr 1943 ; mayr 1957 , 1971 ; mayr and vuilleumier 1983 ; vuilleumier and mayr 1987 ; vuilleumier et al . 1992 ; bahr 1995 ) . type descriptions published from 1991 up to and including 2009 were located in the zoological literature and using zoological record ( biosis ) , web of science ( thomson scientific ) , and recent ornithological literature . descriptions of species likely or known to be extinct at the time of publication , introductions of new names for previously described species , and nomenclaturally unavailable names were excluded .", "seven measures of quality were studied : ( i ) the number of pages devoted to descriptions of new species , ( ii ) the number of specimens of the new species , ( iii ) the number of character states differentiating the new species from its most similar or most closely related species ( as identified in the original description ) , ( iv ) the number of taxa to which the new species was compared , ( v ) the inclusion of an illustration ( photograph or artwork ) of the new species , ( vi ) the inclusion of a map of the range or collecting localities of the new species , and ( vii ) the inclusion of a sonagram ( audiospectrogram ) of the vocalizations of the new species . in addition , the number of pages per taxonomist was calculated by dividing the total number of pages per description by the number of authors of each description . the number of pages was measured in units of 0 . 25 pages ; title , authorship , author affiliations , abstract , illustrations , maps , sonagrams , acknowledgements , and references were excluded . if multiple species were described in a single publication , the number of pages was divided by the number of new species described . the number of character states was the sum of all morphological , behavioural , acoustic , and ecological differences . if taxa also differed in any molecular analysis , this was treated as a single difference for each locus included in the study . mitochondrial sequences , microsatellites , and allozyme analyses were each counted as single characters .", "the relationship between the quality of species descriptions and the proportion of newly proposed species that have been revised was studied using a dataset that included all 414 species described in the period 1935\u20131999 . a cutoff date of 31 december 1999 was used to allow time for revision . two categories of revision were compared : ( i ) unrevised species : valid species which are placed in the same genus as in the original description , and ( ii ) revised species : taxa originally described as species but which are now considered either invalid taxa , subspecies , or valid species in a different genus than in the original description . the current status of species was determined using the zoonomen database ( peterson 2012 ) . well - documented revisions not yet incorporated in the zoonomen database at the time of writing were included in the study : lophura hatinhensis ( synonym of l . edwardsi , hennache et al . 2012 ) , myrmeciza disjuncta ( now aprositornis disjuncta , isler et al . 2013 ) , hypositta perdita ( synonym of oxylabes madagascariensis , fjelds\u00e5 et al . 2013 ) , mirafra sidamoensis ( now heteromirafra archeri sidamoensis , spottiswoode et al . 2013 ) , cettia carolinae ( now horornis carolinae , alstr\u00f6m et al . 2011 ) , cisticola dorsti ( synonym of c . guinea , dowsett - lemaire et al . 2005 ) , and dendroica angelae ( now setophaga angelae , lovette et al . 2010 ) .", "test , fisher ' s exact test ) and multivariate ( regression ) analyses to assess the relationship between the quality of species descriptions and the proportion of newly proposed species that have been revised . multivariate analyses were performed with regression with empirical variable selection ( revs ,", ") , a method which avoids well - known problems associated with full and stepwise regression methods ( e . g . ,", ") . revs uses branch - and - bound all - subsets regression to quantify the amount of empirical support for each independent variable , and then calculates multiple linear regression models . the akaike information criterion ( aic ) was used to compare models and identify the best model . analyses were performed in r version 2 . 15 ( r development core team 2011 ) with the", "the time between the initial discovery of a species and its formal description was assessed in all bird taxa that were described as species in the period 1935\u20132009 . species were excluded from the dataset if the year of discovery could not be determined from the type descriptions .", "the relative impact of descriptions and revisions on the number of recognized bird species was determined by comparing the number of validly described new species of birds and the total number of species estimated or recognized in 18 classifications of recent birds published between 1946 and 2012 ( mayr 1946 ;

sluys 2013 ) . the increased interval between discovery and description during the study period is consistent with this trend . elaborate , well - researched descriptions typically take more time , and require more authors , than the brief descriptions often published in previous decades .", "the results of this study further show why elaborate descriptions of new species are important for taxonomy . elaborate descriptions less often required revision by subsequent taxonomists , and may therefore be regarded as more efficient , than less elaborate descriptions . because the quality of descriptions has increased since the 1930s ( fig . 1 ) , and a significant positive relation exists between quality and the probability that no revision is needed ( fig . 2 , table 2 ) , it is likely that efficiency in taxonomy has increased likewise .", "the findings of this study offer a different perspective on progress in taxonomy than those of joppa et al . ( 2011a ) and costello et al . ( 2012 ) . whereas these authors attributed the drop in the numbers of species described per taxonomist to the ( supposed ) difficulties of finding any new species , our study shows that ( at least in birds ) this drop is best seen as a side - effect of a trend towards higher - quality descriptions , and that this trend translates into fewer subsequent revisions .", "species : named species that remain hidden because these are incorrectly considered as invalid taxa or as subspecies of another species . previously named species that are currently misclassified must be \u201crediscovered\u201d by taxonomic revision . between 1946 and early 2012 , the number of recognized bird species increased from 8616 to 10 , 511 (", ") . during the same period , 266 valid species were described , which represent 14 . 0 % of the total increase of 1895 species , or roughly one in seven species . since 1946 , the rate of increase of the total number of species was exponential (", "trends of the total number of recognized species of recent birds ( based on 18 estimates and classifications ) and newly described valid species of birds ( 1946\u20132011 ) . note that the number of recognized species increases much faster than the number of newly described valid species . a second - order trendline was added to illustrate the trend of the number of recognized species .", "this underscores that in avian taxonomy , revision is a much more important source of newly recognized species than descriptions of previously unnamed species ( fig . 4 ) . consequently , progress in avian taxonomy is not limited by a diminishing pool of undescribed species . importantly , there is no evidence of a slowdown of taxonomic progress ( fig . 4 ) . this result is not unexpected given that in the first half of the twentieth century there was a very strong bias toward lumping distinctive bird species into large polytypic species ( haffer 1992 ) and this bias is only slowly undone by modern revisions ( sangster 2009 ) .", "declines in the number of species described per taxonomist do not indicate a diminishing pool of undescribed species but are better explained by a widespread drive among taxonomists towards higher - quality descriptions . taxonomists have good reasons for this , because more elaborate descriptions require fewer subsequent revisions . the findings of this study and the lack of evidence that increasing numbers of authors involved in descriptions are driven by a diminishing pool of undescribed species , suggest that trends in the number of species described per author should not be used to estimate total numbers of species . furthermore , because numbers of recognized species of birds are increasing exponentially it is incorrect to suggest that species inventories of birds , let alone of all animals , are \u201cnearly complete . \u201d the drive towards better descriptions and the strong increase of species numbers long after their initial descriptions , underscore the fundamentally analytic and iterative nature of taxonomy ( yeates et al . 2011 ; sluys 2013 ; de carvalho et al . 2014 ) , aspects often overlooked by biodiversity scientists and other end - users of taxonomy . broader appreciation of the scientific nature of taxonomy , and of the limitations of nomenclatural databases , will help to acquire a better understanding of the diversity of life .", "we are grateful to norbert bahr for help with identifying older descriptions , to beno\u00eet fontaine , yves samyn , and heike w\u00e4gele for comments on a previous version of the manuscript , and to the members of the journal club of the swedish museum of natural history for fruitful discussion . susanne renner , quentin wheeler and an anonymous referee provided valuable comments that improved the quality of the paper .", "cisticola dorsti ( dorst ' s cisticola ) and c . ruficeps guinea are conspecific", "gill f . , donsker d . 2011 . ioc world bird names ( version 2 . 8 . 3 ) . available from : urltoken ( last accessed march 30 , 2011 ) .", "lumley t . 2009 . package \u2018leaps\u2019 : regression subset selection . available from : urltoken ( last accessed august 22 , 2014 ) .", "radiation and species limits in the asian pallas ' s warbler complex ( phylloscopus proregulus s . l . )", "peterson a . r . 2012 . zoonomen database . available from : urltoken ( last accessed october 22 , 2013 ) .", "sibley c . g . 1996 . birds of the world .

level listing wasn ' t enough . the composition of the families was changing too . i needed to go down to the generic or even species level . to properly track the changes , i needed my own world checklist .", "unlike other checklists , this one is based on genetic studies to the highest degree possible . with one or two exceptions , it relies on published studies ( including those available \u201cahead of print\u201d ) . the strong focus on genetics means that previous morphological studies are often treated as second - class citizens . this is especially true when they aren ' t consistent with the genetic data , even if the genetic data is somewhat soft . nonetheless , i rely on such analyses to fill in the gaps left by the genetic data .", "my approach contrasts with most checklist committees . they usually put substantial weight on traditional classifications , and try to avoid speculation , even when its clear that the traditional classification is wrong . in particular , they try to avoid making erroneous changes , and put a premium on stability .", "this checklist has a different purpose . it exists to speculate , to map out potential changes in the taxonomy . the price of focusing on speculation is to give up stability . i try to avoid erroneously maintaining the status quo , and try to keep abreast of the latest findings , even if incomplete .", "the truth is that much of the genetic analysis is incomplete . it is still the case that only part of the avian tree has reliable results . for the rest , some is still relatively uninvestigated , some has results that are not clear cut or even contradictory , and some studies are not well executed . in some cases i ' ve taken my best guess based on available data , sometimes speculating well beyond the genetic data .", "the instability of the tif worldlist may make it unsuitable for everyday use , although it should serve the useful function of highlighting potential changes regardless of your preferred checklist . unlike a printed checklist , the tif web list can be easily updated as new information , corrections , and better interpretations come to my attention . the \u201cwhat ' s new\u201d button at the top will show you the latest changes .", "previously , only the combination of sibley and monroe ( 1990 ) and sibley and ahlquist ( 1990 ) or its precursor in the auk ( sibley , ahlquist , and monroe , 1988 ) had attempted anything of this sort ( the famous \u201ctapestry\u201d ) . from the beginning , the tif list has used an explicit family -

van der staay et al . 2001 ; pace 1997 ) . it is becoming increasingly obvious that a molecular taxonomy would be valuable for all organisms ( dalebout and baker 2002 ; hebert et al . 2003 ; tautz et al . 2003 ) .", "here we present a comprehensive and validated mitochondrial dna ( mtdna ) reference database of control region and cytochrome b sequences for beaked whales ( dalebout et al . 1998 ; henshaw et al . 1997 ; this article ) . these mtdna datasets , including earlier partial versions , have been used previously to correctly identify specimens misidentified from morphology and discover a new species of beaked whale ( dalebout et al . 1998 , 2002 , 2003 ; van helden et al . 2002 ) . these datasets are presented here in full for the first time . we also present a complementary database of nuclear dna ( ndna ) actin intron sequences for 17 of the 21 beaked whale species and consider the concordance of evolutionary patterns among these alleles with the mtdna phylogeny ."]}

( 2014 ) constructed the relationships of subfamily eriosomatinae , sampling six genera of the melaphidina aphids . their results supported the monophyly of melaphidina , but the relationships among the melaphidina genera were only well supported by the bayesian posterior probabilities ( pp ) without strong bootstrap support ( bs ) . . . .", "as a conclusion , it must be stated that the alimentary tract of apterous viviparous female of anholocyclic population of g . utricualria consists of all anatomical organs typical of aphid subfamily eriosomatinae and constitutes a continuous tube . it is unlikely that g . setulosa may have differently built alimentary tract , since existing data on its foregut and hindgut fully agree with that of presented study on g . utricularia . however , taking into account complicated life cycle and heteroecy of geoica spp , . there is essential need for further studies to confirm whether the situation of geoica spp . ( and also various morphs of species in this genus ) is similar to that of g . utricularia or to that described by ponsen .", "the analysis of b . aphidicola genes that follow an evolutionary pattern that agrees with the molecular clock hypothesis [ 12 , 13 ] can be used to estimate the divergence time between pairs of aphids . this is possible because two aphid species , acyrthosiphon pisum and schizaphis graminum belonging to two tribes of the subfamily aphidinae , have an estimated divergence time calibrated from their fossil record of 50 to 70 my [ 14 ] . in addition , using molecular data from complete b . aphidicola genomes available , p\u00e9rez - brocal and coworkers calculated the divergence time of aphids belonging to subfamilies eriosomatinae ( baizongia pistaciae ) and lachninae ( cinara cedri ) [ 15 ] . based on morphological traits , the subfamilies eriosomatinae and lachninae have traditionally been considered very divergent . in fact , most phylogenetic hypotheses based both on morphological and molecular data consider the lachninae as a sister group of the aphidinae [ 11 , 16 ] . however , the position of this subfamily remains controversial , as recent phylogenies based on molecular sequences located the subfamily in a basal position [ 17 \u2013 19 ] . here , we follow a genomic approach to deepen the evolutionary analyses and propose a phylogeny of the three subfamilies of aphids based on the genome sequence of their primary endosymbionts b . aphidicola . in addition , in order to detect if there is any selective effect related to the specific role of the genes , we also gave a closer look to the acceleration pattern of each functional category .", "this species is widely distributed and are quite often encountered in yards . yet details of its life history are , as far as my literature searches can tell me , mostly undescribed : when does the switch to sexual reproduction happen ? how does the foundress feed or is she fed by her kids ? how and where do they overwinter ? how many asexual generations are completed within a year ? what kinds of predators and parasites plague the colonies ? some the species\u2019 close kin ( other wooly and gall - forming insects in the subfamily eriosomatinae of the aphididae ) have ant - like life histories , forming solider castes within the colony . grylloprociphilus seems less specialized , but without detailed life history studies , we can\u2019t say more .", "since the establishment of the symbiosis between the ancestor of modern aphids and their primary endosymbiont , buchnera aphidicola , insects and bacteria have coevolved . due to this parallel evolution , the analysis of bacterial genomic features constitutes a useful tool to understand their evolutionary history . here we report , based on data from b . aphidicola , the molecular evolutionary analysis , the phylogenetic relationships among lineages and a comparison of sequence evolutionary rates of symbionts of four aphid species from three subfamilies . our results support previous hypotheses of divergence of b . aphidicola and their host lineages during the early cretaceous and indicate a closer relationship between subfamilies eriosomatinae and lachninae than with the aphidinae . they also reveal a general evolutionary pattern among strains at the functional level . we also point out the effect of lifecycle and generation time as a possible explanation for the accelerated rate in b . aphidicola from the lachninae .", "existing literature data report the lack of stomach and crenated intestine in the aphid species geoica setulosa ( passerini , 1860 ) , a representative of subfamily eriosomatinae . this odd anatomical feature seemed remarkable , due to the presence of fully developed intestine in closely related genera and mutualistic relationship with ants of this genus . the study aimed at repeated anatomical research of geoica utricularia ( passerini 1856 ) , in order to confirm what seemed to be a generic feature . standard histological methods were applied , with addition of oblique light microscopy , fluorescence microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy . the results indicated the existence of a fully developed intestine , with broad sac - shaped stomach and loops of the crenated intestine . the general anatomy of the alimentary tract of g . utricularia resembles that of other representatives of the tribe fordini . also well - developed rectal gland is present , most probably playing a role in modifying the carbohydrate composition of excreted honeydew .", "our phylogenetic analysis supports the presence of one clade clustering b . aphidicola bbp and bcc , and another clade consisting of b . aphidicola bap and bsg . this result is consistent with a panorama of a rapid evolutionary radiation of the main subfamilies of aphids , during the early cretaceous ( 144 - 100 mya ) , which seems concordant with previous proposals [ 3 ] . in addition , our evolutionary molecular data from b . aphidicola point out that aphids belonging to subfamilies eriosomatinae and lachninae share a common ancestor more closely related than compared to the members of subfamily aphidinae . if true , our data refute the traditional phylogenetic reconstructions that placed aphidinae and lachninae as a monophyletic group [ 11 ] . however , we do not have evidence to conclude whether , within the subfamily lachninae , tribes feeding on conifers are ancestral or more recent than those living on herbaceous angiosperms , since our analysis does not resolve which strain ( and thus which host aphid ) is basal compared to the others . to solve this point , it would be necessary to sequence the genome of a greater number of b . aphidicola strains , including members of the different tribes from the subfamily lachninae ( work in progress ) . this would allow us to establish the date of divergence between those tribes and , thus , try to relate this fact to the change of vegetal host in either direction .", "regarding synonymous substitutions , when pairs of strains of b . aphidicola were compared based on the average number of synonymous substitutions per site ( ) , a greater accumulation was observed in the b . aphidicola bbp strain compared to bacteria from aphids of the subfamily aphidinae ( b . aphidicola bap and bsg ) , while the smallest value is found between the b . aphidicola bap and bsg strains [ 15 ] . however , if the temporary factor is considered , the rates of synonymous nucleotide substitutions per site and million years are greater in the endosymbionts from the aphidinae ( b . aphidicola bap and bsg strains ) , registering the b . aphidicola bcc strain the smallest values . these results demonstrate that the synonymous substitution rate in b . aphidicola is a variable character , yet the explanation for these divergent patterns is not obvious . as stated elsewhere [ 7 , 14 , 44 ] , these differences can be attributed to differences in the host\u2019s life cycle , as well as ecological factors such as host - alternation and variations in the effective population size showed by the two members of the aphidinae subfamily compared to the other two aphid lineages . additionally a differential mutation rate per generation cannot be ruled out . for example , endosymbionts from aphids with short generation times can accumulate more synonymous mutations per million years ( case of the aphidinae ) than those with longer generation times , such as the eriosomatinae and the lachninae . future studies are required to understand the evolutionary processes driving these patterns .", "in our efforts to understand the biology of soldier - producing aphids , we attempted to maintain them in the laboratory using a chemically defined artificial diet . the ability of 16 species from the subfamilies eriosomatinae and hormaphidinae , most of which are soldier -

lived offspring . although they performed poorly on the diet in general , aphid performance was correlated with the stage in the life cycle and the developmental stadium in that aphids of the gall generation tended to accept the diet and survive on it , whereas aphids of the non - gall generation did not . also , old insects tended to perform better on the diet than young nymphs . notably , only one species , tuberaphis styraci , a gall - forming aphid that produces 2nd instar sterile soldier , showed good performance on the diet . insects collected from galls ( generation g0 ) survived on the diet , grew well , and produced many progeny . three successive generations ( g1 , g2 and g3 ) were produced on the diet . developmental period , adult body size , and age of first reproduction were almost constant through g0 , g1 and g2 whereas fecundity , adult longevity and daily offspring production declined as the generations proceeded . these results are comparable to previous studies in which pest aphids have been maintained on similar artificial diets for several generations . therefore , it is suggested that the artificial -

producing thrips species , which like all members of the order thysanoptera are haplodiploid , often exhibit high levels of inbreeding . aphid colony mates are clonally produced by the foundress , a mode of asexual reproduction called \u2018parthenogenesis\u2019 that is found in virtually all aphids and related groups . in social species of both thrips and aphids , there is , accordingly , a high degree of genetic relatedness between colony mates : an average of 0 . 75 in social thrips colonies , and 1 . 0 in colonies of social aphids . this may favor kin selection in these groups , in which indirect fitness \u2013 realized through the successful reproduction of relatives \u2013 more than compensates the loss of direct fitness that results from altruistic sacrifice ( soldier morphs reproduce less and have a greater chance of dying as a result of colony defense ) .", "aphids with morphologically different life stages that exploit taxonomically different host plants are typically difficult to assign to the correct species .", "( elm ) species , as the primary host , to identify species and associate the different life stages , thereby using them as a diagnostic tool . using sequence data already available from adult specimens , a phylogeny was produced and the unknown morph sequences clustered with", ", confirming the species identity . the authors then described in detail the morphology of the secondary morph , allowing inclusion in future identification keys .", ") communities in order to associate adult and larval life stages from tropical lowlands of nepal . although adult taxonomy is well developed and identification is possible ( albeit by taxonomic experts ) , new species are being discovered and the relation of the root -

and belowground can depend upon larval mortality , which varies both spatially and temporally ; in particular , larvae and adults were often not found in the same season , which can confound attempts to associate larvae with adults . with a sampling scheme that takes these factors into account , it may be possible to use such dna -

95 % ) .", "eggs of p . lethostigma range from 0 . 85 - 0 . 95 mm in diameter ( powell and henley 1995 ) , with a single oil globule . laboratory rearing of southern flounder shows that eggs hatch after 3 days at 18\u00b0c and 30\u2030 salinity ( denson and smith 1997 ) . larvae begin to feed when 4 - 6 days old , and show signs of becoming premetamorphic by day 14 . by day 16 , larvae begin to settle out of the water column and congregate on the bottom . by day 21 , larvae show signs of adult pigmentation , and begin to rest on their left sides , though their eyes remain in position . by day 23 , metamorphosis is initiated and the left eye begins to migrate to the right side . most animals had completed metamorphosis by day 36 ( denson and smith 1997 ) . in culture experiments , yolk - sac larvae began metamorphosing to postlarvae at 40 - 46 days , when they were approximately 8 - 11 mm in length . metamorphosis to the juvenile stage was complete by 50 - 51 days ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) . data from powell and henley ( 1995 ) show that larvae complete metamorphosis when they reach approximately 8 . 7 - 9 . 0 mm sl . by this time , the migrating eye has reached the dorsal midline , and the larval stage is complete .", "all flatfishes , including the southern flounder , are compressed laterally and spend most of their life lying and swimming along the bottom on their side . in the case of southern flounder , the left side is always the \" up \" side ; in other species , the opposite is true . small flounder grow rapidly and may reach 12 inches in length by the end of their first year . males seldom exceed 12 inches , but females grow larger than males and often reach a length of 25 inches .", "the flounder is wonderfully adapted for its way of life . both eyes in adults are on the \" up \" side of the head and the pigmentation of the upper side of the body can be varied to match the surrounding environment . a small body cavity and the absence of air bladder aid the flounder in maintaining its position on the bottom .", "adult southern flounder leave the bays during the fall for spawning in the gulf of mexico . they spawn for the first time when two years old at depths of 50 to 100 feet . the eggs are buoyant . after hatching , the larval fish swim in an upright position and the eyes are located on opposite sides of the head . as the young fish grows , the right eye begins to \" migrate \" to the left side of the head . when body length of about one - half inch has been attained , the eye migration is complete and the fish assumes its left - side - up position for life .", "the young fish enter the bays during late winter and early spring . at this time they are about one - half inch in length and seek shallow grassy areas near the gulf passes . as growth continues , some will move farther into bays . some will enter coastal rivers and bayous . juvenile flounder feed mainly on crustaceans , but as they grow fish become more important in their diet . adult flounder enter shallow water at night where they lie , often partially buried , and wait for prey . empty depressions where flounder have lain are called \" beds . \"", "although most of the adults leave the bays and enter the gulf for spawning during the winter , some remain behind and spend winter in the bays . those in the gulf will reenter the bays in the spring . the spring influx is gradual and does not occur with large concentrations that characterize the fall emigration .", "flounder are taken by rod and reel or by gig . when fishing with rod and reel , light tackle offers both the greatest sport and best chance for catching flounder . both artificial lures and natural bait can be used . over barren bottoms , leaded plastic worms ( worm jigs ) are often very effective . in heavily vegetated areas , shallow - running spoons are best .", "flounder prefer live to dead bait . live shrimp retrieved slowly along the bottom often produce excellent results . killifish ( referred to locally as mud minnows ) fished in a similar fashion , is good bait . these fish can often be taken in large numbers with the cast or minnow seine .", "although many are taken by rod and reel , \" floundering \" or gigging offers the best challenge for this species . the flounder is vulnerable to this technique because it often enters the shallows at night to feed . both the skills of the angler and the hunter are called for here .", "lanterns are used in searching for flounder and gigs ranging from single - pronged to modified hay forks are used to spear the fish . the anglers wade quietly along the shallows looking for flounder . once the flounder is within the light from the lantern , normally it will not move , affording the fisher a chance to \" gig \" the fish . although this sounds like a sure - fire method , many fish are missed because they go undetected until they swim away or because of inaccurate gigging by an overanxious angler .", "the more sophisticated flounder fisher may mount his lanterns ( or battery - powered lamps ) on the front of a flat - bottomed skiff . the skiff is then poled through the water in search of fish or is pushed by a small air motor . floundering from a boat is much easier than wading . it allows the angler to cover more area and search bottoms that are too soft for wading .", "although flounder can be taken by rod and reel in almost any portion of the bay , it is more often productive to fish around jetties or oyster reefs that extend from shore into the bay . flounder do not swim continuously so they tend to accumulate in such places in their search for food . during the fall , when flounder are moving to the gulf for spawning , the best catches are made in the channels and passes leading to the gulf . during the spring , wading anglers work the edges of channels , such as the intracoastal waterway , as the fish are moving back into the bays .", "floundering is best during the migration from october to december . hundreds of lanterns can often be seen in and around the pass areas during this period , as the fishers wade through the shallows in search of fish .", "during the spring and summer the best catches with gigs are made in the back bays . areas with cord grass (", ") along the shoreline are good producers , and a bottom that is slightly silty or muddy generally is better than a hard sand bottom . the mouths of small bayous and sloughs often yield flounder .", "since water clarity is very important to the success of any floundering trip , floundering should be done on calm nights . when fishing on windy nights , anglers should try to work small protected bays and shorelines .", "the best catches are made during an incoming tide and on dark nights as opposed to moonlit nights . however , do not hesitate to flounder on an outgoing tide . during a falling tide trying farther offshore in water one to two feet deep or around offshore sandbars is often more productive . avoid nights when the tides are abnormally high .", "stingrays also frequent the shallows at night . they are flat and can sometimes be mistaken for a flounder or stepped on by the unwary . the inexperienced flounder fisher should make certain of what he has gigged before retrieving it . if in doubt , simply hold the creature on the bottom with the gig and wait for the water to settle before attempting to retrieve your catch . a multi - pronged gig is helpful in such cases , because the catch can be lifted unassisted from the bottom .", "the flounder ' s reputation as table fare is unsurpassed in texas . remember that the quality of any seafood is largely dependent on how it is handled between capture and preparation . remove the viscera and gills from the flounder and place the fish on ice as soon as possible . cleaning beyond this point depends on how the fish will be cooked .", "flounder can be prepared in many ways . broiling the fish with butter , lemon juice and favorite seasoning is popular . they also may be baked or fried . the gourmet may like his flounder stuffed with crabmeat . many other recipes are available at various internet sites .", ", is the largest of more than 25 species of flatfishes found in texas coastal waters . it is highly prized as both food and a recreationally harvested fish and accounts for more than 95 percent of the flounder harvest in the state . southern flounder occur from north carolina to the mouth of the rio grande and southward into mexico . they are usually found west of the mississippi river .", "your contact information is used to deliver requested updates or to access your subscriber preferences . children under 13 years of age must have a parent / guardian & apos ; s consent before providing any personal information to the agency .", "southern flounder attain a size of up to 3 feet ( 91 cm ) in length , and can weigh as much as 9 kg ( 24 . 1 lbs . ) ( smith et al . 1999 ) . the von bertalanffy growth model predicts a maximum age for summer flounder of approximately of 20 years ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) .", "adults migrate to offshore spawning grounds during late fall and winter , though some remain in estuaries year - round . spawning migrations are usually preceded by a drop in water temperature of 4 - 5 \u00b0c . males move seaward earlier than females , with few remaining in estuaries after november ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) . in north carolina , southern flounders begin migration in the fall ; in texas , they migrate from october through december ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) .", "laboratory experiments from texas indicate that approximately 3 weeks before spawning takes place , male southern flounder begin following gravid females . in tank experiments , the first spawning was in december and occurred at midday . females swam to the surface and released eggs that were immediately fertilized by attending males . fertilization was 30 % to 50 % successful , and 6 % to 35 % of the eggs hatched within 61 -

34 mm in total length ( tl ) were captured during february , march , and may . fish 25 - 51 mm tl were caught in the mississippi river during the spring . in aransas bay , texas , the peak movement of postlarvae flounders into estuaries is in february , when water temperature is 16 . 0 - 16 . 2 \u00b0c ( stokes 1977 ) .", "temperature influences the migration of postlarval and adult southern flounders ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) . in louisiana coastal waters , adult southern flounders have been collected at temperatures ranging from 5 - 35 \u00b0c .", "southern flounder are highly euryhaline , and withstand fluctuations in salinities ranging from 0 - 35\u2030 or more . data from smith et al . ( 1999 ) indicates that salinity tolerance in this species increases with age .", "burke et al . ( 1991 ) also reported that juvenile southern flounder moved further upstream to more riverine environments later in the spring , while juvenile summer flounder tended to remain in higher salinity tidal areas near spartina saltmarshes . catch comparisons showed that approximately equal numbers of southern flounder were caught in sandy versus muddy substrate types in low salinity waters ; while summer flounder were most abundant in sandy substrata in higher salinity waters . burke et al . ( 1991 ) concluded that southern flounder settlement is more highly correlated with salinity , while summer flounder settlement is more highly correlated with substratum type .", "southern flounder are carnivorous fishes that are generally considered to be top or near - top predators . larvae reared under laboratory conditions begin feeding on rotifers 4 - 6 days posthatch . by 8 - 13 days posthatch , larvae begin to feed on newly hatched artemia nauplii ( denson and smith 1997 ) .", "a tank study showed that southern flounder tend to be more active at night than during the day ( reagan and wingo 1985 ) .", "the southern flounder is a valuable sport and commercial fish along the gulf coast of the united states . most of the commercial catch in the gulf of mexico is incidental to the catch by shrimp trawlers . there has been significant interest in utilizing southern flounder as an aquaculture species . studies in the southeastern u . s . and in the gulf of mexico are currently underway to improve spawning techniques and develop larval rearing methods for southern flounder in order to improve its attractiveness as an aquaculture product ( jenkins and smith 1999 ; smith et al . 1999 ) .", "flounders of all species are harvested annually from waters in and around the indian river lagoon , and are especially prized by recreational anglers . however , the commercial fishery is not of particularly high value . for the years 1987 -

mile san juan river .", "\u201cthe firemouth cichlid thorichthys meeki is a native to mexico , guatemala and belize . \u201d", "water chemistry if you live in a hard water area , the chances are your tap water will be adequate for keeping these fish . central american cichlids are adaptable and do well across a range of water chemistry values , though as ever in fishkeeping , it is important to maintain ph and hardness stability between water changes . in general , ph 7 - 8 and a hardness of 10 degrees dh or more will suit these fish well . in soft water areas some hardening of the water will be necessary . one approach is to place calcareous media ( such as crushed coral ) in one of the compartments inside a canister filter . as the water flows past this media it will dissolve some of the calcium carbonate , resulting in harder , more alkaline water . because filters get dirty over time , any such media will gradually lose its buffering capacity as it gets covered with dirt and slime . to prevent problems , take care to clean any calcareous media under a hot tap at least once a month , or sooner if you find the ph dropping .", "\u201celectric blue jack dempsey cichlids are typical of central americans in preferred moderately hard , alkaline water conditions . \u201d", "an alternative approach is to add minerals to each bucket of new water . you can use commercially available cichlid salts of the type produced for malawian and tanganyikan cichlids , but you likely won\u2019t need to use the full dose . a half dose should be adequate , though check the ph and hardness with your test kits and adjust as required . if you want to make your own mineral salts , then add 1 teaspoon baking soda ( sodium bicarbonate ) , 1 tablespoon epsom salt ( magnesium sulfate ) , and 1 teaspoon marine salt mix ( sodium chloride and various trace elements ) per 10 gallons ( 40 litres ) of water . again , check the ph and hardness and adjust as necessary .", "salinity some central american cichlids inhabit brackish water habitats and could be kept in a brackish water system . one benefit of keeping these fish in brackish water conditions is that the marine salt mix will automatically adjust ph and hardness to appropriate levels . examples of species found in slightly brackish water include amphilophus hogaboomorum , herichthys carpintis , herichthys pearsei , parachromis friedrichsthalii , parachromis motaguensis , rocio octofasciata and vieja synspila . these will do well at specific gravity levels up to around sg 1 . 005 . a few species are able to live and breed in fully marine conditions . these include cichlasoma urophthalmus , nandopsis haitiensis , nandopsis tetracanthus and vieja maculicauda . none of these fish needs brackish water conditions to do well , and all could be kept in a plain freshwater aquarium without problems .", "water temperature for most species the usual 25 degrees c ( 77 degrees f ) will suffice . higher temperatures are sometimes advocated by hobbyists , but the only real benefit of this is to increase the frequency with which these cichlids spawn . unless you are farming these fish on a massive scale , there\u2019s no particular reason to have your fish spawning every 3 - 4 weeks !", "decorating the tank since most central american cichlids come from shady habitats with lots of cover , they appreciate a tank that isn\u2019t too brightly lit . most species like to dig , so live plants , except perhaps floating species , aren\u2019t of much use . instead concentrate on large plastic plants , rocks , and pieces of artificial or real bogwood . because large amounts of bogwood can acidify the aquarium over time , if you decide to use a lot of this material , monitor ph carefully and do not neglect water changes ! the sand - sifting species will appreciate a fine substrate . river sand is ideal , but otherwise a mix of four parts smooth silica sand to one part coral sand will produce a reasonable facsimile . because these cichlids like subdued light and shady environments , they don\u2019t appreciate brightly coloured gravels .", "because these fish dig a lot , take care that their activity cannot undermine your arrangement of rocks . make sure all rocks are securely balanced , and if necessary use a gravel tidy to secure a cushioning layer of gravel at the bottom of the tank . this will prevent any rocks slipping and cracking the glass . most of these fish spawn in caves , or at least dig a pit somewhere sheltered . in many cases a flowerpot on its side makes an ideal nesting site .", "tank size central american cichlids need a lot of space . tanks less than 110 litres ( 30 gallons ) in size are best reserved for singletons or breeding pairs . collections of the smaller , milder species could be maintained in tanks 200 litres ( 55 gallons ) in size , but for best results you should aim for a tank 375 - 750 litres ( 100 - 200 gallons ) in size . this will provide your fish with plenty of space , and make it easier to keep the bigger and more aggressive species without them killing each other .", "amatitlania - convict cichlids the standard convict cichlid of the hobby is amatitlania nigrofasciata . various colour morphs are available , including an albino form . wild - type fish are basically grey with black vertical bands . females also have bright gold markings on the belly and on the dorsal and anal fins . the species is also sexually dimorphic in terms of size , with females being smaller at up to 10 cm ( 4 inches ) noticeably smaller than the males , who get up to about 12 . 5 cm ( 5 inches ) in length . convicts are pugnacious , and noted for their ability to coexist successfully alongside much larger fish . they tend to bully the mild central american cichlids , but in sufficiently large aquaria will work well with the more territorial , small and medium - sized species . they are omnivores and consume both meaty and green foods .", "the honduran red point convict , probably amatitlania siquia , is similar to the standard convict but is smaller and has distinctive red and green colouration in the fins . maintenance is much like the standard convict , but this species appears to be somewhat less aggressive .", "archocentrus - mild mannered rainbows at least three species belong to this genus , but only one species , the rainbow cichlid archocentrus multispinosus , is commonly traded . it works well in community tanks , and is probably the best central american cichlids for beginners . as its name suggests , this species varies its colours with its mood . the body is generally yellow to brick red , but becomes very dark , almost black , when spawning . archocentrus are omnivores , and offerings of both crustaceans and green foods will help them develop their best colours .", "the mojarra or mayan cichlid cichlasoma urophthalmus is a big species at up to 40 cm ( 16 inches ) in length . it is one of the species most strongly associated with brackish water conditions , and wild fish show a distinct preference for coastal lagoons . under aquarium conditions it does not need to be kept in brackish water . it is aggressive , and should be kept alone or with equally robust species , though care should be taken to avoid species too similar in shape or colouration , as such fish will tend to bring out its worst behaviour . its sheer size demands a massive aquarium : singletons won\u2019t tolerant other cichlids in anything under 375 litres ( 100 gallons ) and breeding pairs will need a tank twice that size if you want to avoid carnage ! the mojarra is often confused with a south american cichlid cichlasoma festae . when the two are compared , cichlasoma festae has a smaller eyespot on the tail fin but more intense red colouration .", "herichthys - texas cichlids there are at least ten species in the genus herichthys but only two are normally traded . historically there has been much confusion between these two species , herichthys carpintis and herichthys cyanoguttatus , with both fish being known as texas cichlids . in fact only herichthys cyanoguttatus is naturally found in texas , specifically the rio grande , as well as mexico . telling the two species apart is difficult , but in general herichthys cyanoguttatus is covered with much smaller blue - white spots than herichthys carpintis . body colour in both cases can vary dramatically with mood , though it is typically some shade of blue , often with dark vertical bands . herichthys are omnivores that consume some plant matter alongside small crustaceans , worms and insects . they are reasonably well behaved fish in communities alongside other robust cichlids , but do become extremely aggressive when spawning .", "these are medium - sized cichlids at up to 20 cm ( 8 inches ) in length though often rather less . they are omnivores , with wild fish consuming both plants and animal foods , particularly algae and insect larvae . they are notoriously aggressive at breeding time , but by the standards of central american cichlids generally , not especially aggressive the rest of the time . they work well in communities of robust cichlids , given sufficient space and hiding places .", "occasionally you will see other species on sale , such as thorichthys ellioti . apart from differences in colouration , these are essentially similar to the firemouth in terms of care . thorichthys ellioti in particular is very vividly coloured with bright blue spots over its body .", "they grew pretty quickly . i fed them twice a day , and feeding was very easy . they pretty much ate anything that fell in front of their face . every other day i performed water changes of about ten percent to keep the chemistry up to par . by the end of the first year they were each about 3 inches long .", "finally , one day i had noticed that two had paired off . they had all the others pinned in corners and fearing for their lives , so the following day i baged up the dominated fish , and traded them in for some baby brine and earthworm flakes before they met an untimely death by the newly territorial and greedy pair . within days i noticed the couple cleaning one of the flat stones . i also noticed that the female\u2019s breeding tube was visible , a sign that eggs are soon to come . she laid about 100 small . tan - colored eggs the following day . it happened to be my day off , and i was excited that she had laid her first batch of eggs , little did i know that the pleco decided he had an appetite for caviar . the inexperienced soon - to - be parents tried to keep the intruder away , but the pleco was determined to have his fancy meal . the damage done , i relocated the pleco to my african cichlid tank .", "she had another batch of eggs 3 weeks later . this time they were better prepared , and with no armored , sucker - mouthed egg eaters in their tank , they were on the road to success . these fish are very good parents once they get the hang of it ! they guarded their offspring ferociously , even attacking the gravel tube as i tried to clean the substrate . when they were big enough , i moved the fry i could catch to a seperate 20 high . about 50 fry made it to be traded and sold from that batch .", "i don\u2019t consider sajicas a very vibrant species , though they are attractive in their own way . they remind me a lot of the a . spilurus , with their shimmering blue eyes . maybe their most striking feature is the blue throat developed by both males and females as they mature . males attain an adult size of 5 inches and females about 3 . 5 to 4 inches . with caution they may be kept with community fish , but they are almost always aggressive towards others of their own kind . i would say the minimum tank size for an adult pair would be a 29 gallon . i would highly recommend this species to someone who would like to try something other than a convict cichlid . they breed easily and are really fun to watch as they spawn and raise their fry . if you have any questions about them , please let me know in the comments section !", "you may know better than i if this is indeed a baby t -

finned fishes , the lack of a single comprehensive phylogeny with corresponding divergence - time estimates has limited our understanding of the evolution and diversification of this radiation . our analyses , which use multiple nuclear gene sequences in conjunction with 36 fossil age constraints , result in a well - supported phylogeny of all major ray - finned fish lineages and molecular age estimates that are generally consistent with the fossil record . this phylogeny informs three long - standing problems : specifically identifying elopomorphs ( eels and tarpons ) as the sister lineage of all other teleosts , providing a unique hypothesis on the radiation of early euteleosts , and offering a promising strategy for resolution of the \u201cbush at the top of the tree\u201d that includes percomorphs and other spiny - finned teleosts . contrasting our divergence time estimates with studies using a single nuclear gene or whole mitochondrial genomes , we find that the former underestimates ages of the oldest ray - finned fish divergences , but the latter dramatically overestimates ages for derived teleost lineages . our time - calibrated phylogeny reveals that much of the diversification leading to extant groups of teleosts occurred between the late mesozoic and early cenozoic , identifying this period as the \u201csecond age of fishes . \u201d", "ray -

finned fish phylogeny is resolved with strong support ( 1 ) . actinopterygii contains more than 30 , 000 species ( 2 ) , with all but 50 being teleosts ( 3 ) . compared with other large vertebrate radiations , such as mammals ( 4 ) or birds ( 5 ) , a general consensus on the phylogenetic relationships and timing of diversification among the major actinopterygian and teleost lineages is lacking ( 3 , 6 , 7 ) . this uncertainty about relationships has prevented the development of a comprehensive time - calibrated phylogeny of ray - finned fishes , which is necessary to understand macroevolutionary processes that underlie their diversity .", ") , and unlike other clades of vertebrates , there has been no comprehensive effort to resolve the phylogeny of actinopterygians and teleosts using molecular data that sample multiple nuclear genes and include taxa that span the major lineages . despite the long history of using morphological data in the phylogenetics of ray - finned fishes , there are several areas of uncertainty and disagreement regarding some of the most fundamental relationships . first , there are two competing hypotheses on the phylogenetic relationships that reflect the earliest diversification of teleosts : either the osteoglossomorpha [ bony tongues (", ") ] are the sister lineage of all other teleosts . second , the relationships of lower euteleosts ( e . g . , salmons , smelts , pikes , slickheads , and galaxiids ) , or \u201cprotacanthopterygians , \u201d has changed frequently as a result of phylogenetic analyses of different morphological datasets (", ") to label the percomorpha as the \u201cbush at the top of the [ teleost ] tree . \u201d", "applications of molecular data to these three long - standing questions in teleost phylogenetics have yielded mixed results . for example , analyses of nuclear and mtdna gene sequences have supported all three possible relationships among osteoglossomorphs , elopomorphs , and all other teleosts [ i . e . , clupeocephalans (", "we investigated phylogenetic relationships and divergence times of all major lineages of actinopterygii and teleostei using dna sequences of nine unlinked protein - coding nuclear genes sampled from 232 species . we used 36 well - justified absolute time calibrations from the fossil record of ray - finned fishes in relaxed - molecular clock analyses to estimate divergence times . phylogenies resulting from these analyses were well resolved , the majority of phylogenetic inferences were supported with strong node support values , were robust to inferences using new \u201cspecies tree\u201d methods , and provide a comprehensive molecular perspective on areas of long - standing disagreement and uncertainty in the relationships of teleost fishes . divergence times estimated from relaxed - molecular clock analyses yield a comprehensive time - scale of actinopterygian diversification that is remarkably close to ages inferred from the fossil record .", "maximum - likelihood analyses of the nine nuclear gene dataset resolved 89 % of the 232 nodes in the actinopterygian phylogeny with bootstrap replicate scores ( bs ) \u226570 % and the phylogenies inferred using the bayesian method had 91 % of the nodes strongly supported posterior probabilities ( bpp ) \u2265 0 . 95 ( fig . 1 , and figs . s1 and s2 ) . relationships of nonteleostean actinopterygians were consistent with traditional morphologically - based inferences ( 6 ) with polypterids ( bichirs and ropefish ) resolved as the sister lineage of all other actinopterygians ( actinopteri ) in the relaxed - clock analysis ( fig . 1 ) . in addition , acipenseriformes ( sturgeons and paddlefishes ) were the sister lineage of neopterygii with strong support ( bs = 100 % , bpp = 1 . 00 ) , and holostei ( bowfin and gars ) was resolved as the sister lineage of teleosts [ bs = 100 % , bpp = 1 . 00 ( fig . 1 , and figs . s1 and s2 ) ] . these results contrast with earlier molecular studies that either resolved acipenseriforms and holosteans as an \u201cancient - fish\u201d clade ( 31 ) or acipenseriforms and polypteriforms as a weakly supported clade ( 32 ) .", "actinopterygian time - calibrated phylogeny based on nine nuclear genes and 36 fossil age constraints . bars represent the posterior distribution of divergence -

calibrated tree is scaled to the geological time scale with absolute time given in millions of years .", "our results provide resolution to three of the most compelling questions in teleost phylogenetics . the molecular phylogeny resulted in the strongly supported position ( bs = 97 % , bpp = 1 . 00 ) of elopomorphs as the sister lineage of all other teleosts ( fig . 1 , and figs . s1 and s2 ) . this result is also strongly supported in a species tree analysis , which accounts for potential discordance among individual gene histories , with a bootstrap proportion of 100 % ( fig . s3 ) . evidence for osteoglossomorpha as the sister lineage of all other teleosts was based on the presence of a single character state in the caudal fin skeleton ( 9 , 10 ) . on the other hand , the hypothesis that elopomorpha is the sister lineage of all other teleosts was based on eight derived character - state changes identified from optimization of a matrix containing 135 discretely coded morphological characters ( 11 ) . our results strongly support the latter hypothesis , illustrating agreement between phylogenetic inferences from a robust morphological data matrix and our densely sampled nuclear gene dna sequence dataset .", "one of the most important problems in vertebrate phylogenetics is the resolution of the major lineages of percomorpha . the phylogeny confirms several results presented in previous molecular analyses , including the resolution of ophidiiforms ( cusk eels ) and batrachoidids ( toadfish ) as early diverging percomorphs (", "posterior distribution of molecular age estimates and patterns of calibration sharing across studies of ray -

rich lineages ( e . g . , otophysians and acanthomorphs ) originated and eventually flourished , becoming the dominant vertebrate component of marine and freshwater habitats .", "ray - finned fishes include half of the entire species richness of vertebrates ( 2 , 3 ) , but had ranked last , by a wide margin , in the degree of phylogenetic resolution offered by available dna sequence and genomic resources ( 1 ) . our phylogeny , based on a multilocus dataset , provides robust resolution and strong support across all major lineages of ray - finned fishes and teleosts . additionally , our divergence time estimates reconcile inferences from paleontology with those obtained from other studies that used molecular methods , providing a molecular time scale that is more consistent with ages implied by the fossil record . this comprehensive molecular perspective on the evolutionary diversification of one - half of all vertebrate species provides dna sequence data and calibration information from which to integrate resolution of clades at lower taxonomic levels ( e . g . , families ) and estimate ages of actinopterygian lineages that lack a fossil record .", "standard phenol -

monophyletic also was proposed previously 102 , 29 and supported by our data ( see also fig . 2 ) .", "a corollary of the increased resolution of percomorph relationships is the demise of the smegmamorpharia sensu johnson and patterson 4 ( see also wiley and johnson 5 ; fig . 2 ) . elements included in this supraordinal taxon are now scattered throughout the molecular phylogeny , placed within many of the newly found clades with high bootstrap support . for example , the pygmy sunfishes ( elassoma ) are back with the other sunfishes ( centrarchids ) , as suggested by earlier classifications and recently confirmed by molecules 30 . centrarchids plus elassomatids are placed here in the resurrected order centrarchiformes ( within percomorpharia , fig . 9 ) . mugiliforms ( mullets ) and atherinomorphs ( silversides , needlefishes , halfbeaks , guppies and allies ) are placed within ovalentariae ( fig . 8 ) . the swamp eels and spiny eels ( order synbranchiformes , suborders synbranchoidei and mastacembeloidei ) are placed with confidence in anabantomorphariae ( fig . 5 ) , together with armored sticklebacks ( indostomidae ) , one of the 11 families previously included in the order gasterosteiformes . the polyphyly of gasterosteiformes ( another large clade assigned to smegmamorpha ) was first pointed out by mitogenomic evidence 12 . our results place the sticklebacks , tubesnouts and sand eels ( previously assigned to gasterosteoidei ) in our newly defined perciformes ( suborder cottioidei ; fig . 10 ) and the rest of the families previously assigned to the suborder syngnathoidei were relocated to our newly defined order syngnathiformes within the scombrimorpharia ( fig . 4 , see below ) .", "phylogenetic resolution within five newly discovered clades , however , will require additional study . relationships within syngnathiformes , scombriformes , carangimorphariae , ovalentariae , and percomorpharia may be challenging to recover given the rapid radiation and diversification of these clades .", "based on a phylogeny estimated with four mitochondrial markers , thacker 33 resurrected the order gobiiformes , to accommodate three suborders : gobioidei ( gobies and sleepers ) , kurtidoidei ( nurseryfish ) , and apogonoidei ( including apogonids and pempherids ) . previous molecular studies have shown affinities between gobioids , apogonids , kurtids and , to some extent , pempherids and dactylopterids 8 , 11 , 16 . there is also morphological evidence supporting a close relationship between gobids and apogonids 108 , 109 as well as between kurtids and apogonids 110 . our results provide partial support for the gobiiformes sensu thacker 33 but we treat it here as a supraordinal group ( gobiomorpharia ) . a major difference is that our hypothesis segregates the family pempheridae ( sweepers ) to its own order ( pempheriformes , together with glaucosomatidae ) , within percomorpharia ( figs . 1 , 3 , 9 ) .", "fig . 3 : detailed relationships among orders and families of gobiomorpharia ( see also fig . 1 ) .", "fish illustrations were obtained from fishes of the world ( nelson [ 2 ] ) and are reproduced with permission of john wiley & sons , inc .", "scombrimorpharia : sea horses and tunas are close relatives ( figs . 1 , 4 and 5 )", "one of the most unanticipated new percomorph clades is the scombrimorpharia , grouping such disparate fishes as seahorses and tunas . this clade includes the newly circumscribed orders syngnathiformes ( fig . 4 ) and scombriformes ( fig . 5 ) . not surprisingly , a close relationship among taxa contained within this group , including syngnathids , mullids , callionymids , dactylopterids , scombrids , stromateids , an others , has never been proposed on morphological grounds . the syngnathiformes , as defined here ( fig . 4 ) , comprises mostly tropical marine reef - dwellers , traditionally placed in three distinct percomorph orders , including gasterosteiformes ( syngnathids ) , \u201cperciformes\u201d ( mullids and callionymids ) and \u201cscorpaeniformes\u201d ( dactylopterids ) . recent molecular studies have emphasized the non - monophyly of scorpaeniformes 74 . we have noted above the dissolution of gasterosteiformes 12 and , as discussed below , we provide a restricted definition for perciformes that includes many scorpaeniform taxa ( fig . 10 ) .", "fig . 4 : detailed relationships among families of syngnathiformes ( see also fig . 1 ) .", "our new order scombriformes ( fig . 5 ) includes most of the families previously grouped in the perciform suborder scombroidei 2 or the order scombriformes 5 , except for the barracudas ( sphyraenidae ) and the billfishes and swordfishes ( here placed in their own order , istiophoriformes ) . sphyraenidae and istiophoriformes are now firmly placed within carangimorphariae ( fig . 7 ) together with disparate taxa such as remoras ( echeneidae ) , archer fishes ( toxotidae ) , jacks ( carangidae ) , flatfishes ( pleuronectiformes ) , and others ( see below ) . because billfishes and tunas are not closely related as previously suggested by anatomical studies 83 ( fig . 2 ) , the new hypothesis implies that endothermy has evolved at least twice independently in teleosts 111 , 112 . this new circumscription of scombriformes also comprises families belonging to multiple orders in previous classifications , such as stromateiformes ( centrolophidae , nomeidae , ariommatidae , stromateidae ) , trachiniformes ( chiasmodontidae ) , icosteiformes ( icosteidae ) , and perciformes ( bramidae , pomatomidae , and caristiidae ) . despite the disparate morphology among members of scombriformes , most are offshore fishes that inhabit pelagic and / or deep - sea waters .", "fig . 5 : detailed relationships among families of scombriformes ( see also fig . 1 ) .", "another major percomorph group proposed here is the series carangimorpharia , including three subseries : anabantomorphariae , carangimorphariae , and ovalentariae ( fig . 1 ) . species in anabantomorphariae include representatives placed in three separate orders by wiley and johnson 5 : synbranchiformes ( swamp eels ) , gasterosteiformes ( indostomus , the armored stickleback ) , and anabantiformes ( gouramis ) ( fig . 6 ) . while the first two orders belonged to the smegmamorpharia 4 , 5 , the anabantiformes were placed as incertae sedis in percomorphacea 5 . the monophyly of anabantomorphariae has also been supported on the basis of mitogenomics 8 , 11 , 12 and nuclear markers 28 . a remarkable condition shared by members of this novel grouping is their mostly freshwater origin and restriction to africa and south east asia ( although some members in the family synbranchidae occur in mexico , and central and south america ) . most are able to occupy marginal , stagnant waters due to their capacity to tolerate anoxia and to obtain oxygen directly from the air . anabantiforms have a suprabranchial organ and synbranchids have suprabranchial pouches with respiratory function .", "fig . 6 : detailed relationships among orders and families of anabantomorphariae ( see also fig . 1 ) .", "a close affinity between other seemingly disparate groups , including barracudas , swordfishes , jacks , flatfishes , and others , has been well established by recent molecular studies 10 , 16 , 19 , 24 , 27 , 28 , 112 ( fig . 7 ) . this higher -

( i should point out , incidentally , that sloths have extremely long fur , making them appear much larger than they really are . ) beetles have been found by the hundreds living on a single sloth . another insect that calls the sloth home is a type of moth\u2014 bradipodicola hahneli ( or \u201csloth moth\u201d to most people ) . the sloth\u2019s fur provides both food and protection for the moth . not only does it feed on the algae , but it also deposits its eggs in the sloth\u2019s droppings , where they pupate and hatch , and then fly off to look for another sloth to live on .", "sloths are not known as particularly social creatures , but they do spend enough time with the opposite sex to reproduce . one of the studies underway at aviarios del caribe when i was there involved the mating habits of three - toed sloths . we saw a video in which a female sloth named buttercup let out a blood - curdling mating call that sounded like a woman shrieking . immediately , males from as far away as 700 meters began rushing toward the sound . by \u201crushing , \u201d i mean crawling at the breakneck speed of about 200 meters per day . but for a sloth , this single - minded , deliberate movement\u2014on the ground , no less , in plain view of predators\u2014is definitely rushing . ah , the things we do for love .", "females usually give birth once a year , and with gestation periods of about six months , that means they spend about half their adult lives pregnant . when a sloth reaches six months of age , it\u2019s old enough to be left on its own . before that time , however , if a youngster falls from a tree , the mother will not attempt to rescue it ; the risk of attack by a bird or jaguar is too great .", "young sloths separated from their mothers in this way are the main wards of the sloth rehabilitation center i visited . other residents were injured by contact with an electrical line , or orphaned when an eagle attacked the mother . staff members and volunteers nurse the sloths back to health , and participate in a variety of scientific studies and conservation projects . buttercup was the center\u2019s first resident , and has been there for about 13 years . she serves as a living mascot , helping to promote awareness and research of her species .", "sloths\u2019 slow , graceful movements have been compared to those of a t\u2019ai chi master . i agree with that assessment\u2014and coincidentally it was for a t\u2019ai chi retreat that i went to costa rica in the first place . but sloths have also been called \u201cugly , \u201d and here i must disagree . up close , sloths are actually quite cute , and the shape of their faces gives the impression of a permanent smile . in the wild , of course , the menagerie of plants and critters growing in the fur can be off - putting , but a well - groomed sloth is\u2014and i\u2019m speaking from experience here\u2014downright cuddly .", "sloths share their name with one of the so - called \u201cdeadly sins\u201d because their slow metabolism gives them the appearance of laziness . but slow and lazy are two different things . the grace , balance , and gentleness of the sloth\u2014not to mention its hospitality toward the other creatures that depend on it\u2014are traits i could aspire to emulate . \u2014 joe kissell", "if you\u2019re ever in costa rica , aviarios del caribe is well worth a visit . besides being a wildlife sanctuary , it\u2019s also a bed & breakfast . owners judy and luis arroyo will tell you everything you want to know about sloths , and you can also take a canoe ride into the rain forest to see a wide variety of other wildlife . janet younger wrote this article for the travelwise web site about her stay at aviarios del caribe ;

supported evolutionary tree , or phylogeny , to date . the tree represents all 55 known families of frogs and generates a new timeline of frog evolution .", "the researchers then used fossil records to translate genetic differences between frog lineages into dates at which they likely diverged from one another . when the analyses pointed to a simultaneous evolution of the three major frog clades \u2014 hyloidea , microhylidae and natatanura \u2014 the researchers initially eyed the finding with skepticism , said peng zhang , a corresponding study author and professor in the department of biochemistry and molecular biology at sun yat -

arrubarrena , 1987 ) that recognizes uppers and lowers among the hooked planus teeth and that study is based on a los angeles museum of natural history sample of over 10 , 000 makos from the sharktooth hill bonebed . in fact , espinosa - arrubarrena referred the thicker - crowned teeth to a separate undescribed species , \" isurus species f . \"", "if this is indeed a c planus tooth , then based on the root lobes , it ' s almost certainly a first upper anterior , and not a lateral tooth . were it actually a 2 . 5 \" lateral tooth - - lateral carcharodon / cosmopolitodus / isurus teeth generally being smaller in crown height than anterior teeth - - then one would have to explain the absence of 3 \" + anterior planus teeth . also , this tooth doesn ' t show the degree of distal directedness of a typical c planus lateral tooth , with upper laterals generally being more deeply ' hooked ' than upper anterior teeth . i could accept this tooth as either a c hastalis or planus first upper anterior , but not a lateral from either . that part at least , seems uncontroversial .", "collectors have been talking about that tooth form for years . the \" old school \" answer is that it is a hastalis lower . a friend calls that form \" bulky isurus \" with the meaning that it is a thicker - crowned variant of hastalis lower . more recently , it has been interpreted as a planus lower . i have talked with jim bourdon , the man behind elasmo . com , about this and he ' s convinced that it is a planus lower ( and i ' m paraphrasing him now ) because all the \" classic \" planus ( the hooked teeth ) appear to be uppers . he thinks there are already established upper and lower forms for hastalis so these thicker - crowned teeth must belong to something else and no other candidate is available for a planus lower form .", "it ' s an interesting tooth in any case . it would be easily the largest planus i ' ve ever seen or heard of .", "hi - i have collected hundreds of planus from sharktooth hill and my largest personal find to date is 2 . 1 \" i did recently acquire a planus from an old collection that measures a hair over 2 . 5 \" . this is the largest to date that i have seen in any collection . photo attached .", "lowers could be less common because they were replaced at a slower rate . in the case of hastalis and planus , the closed modern analogue would be carcharodon carcharias , which descended from hastalis ( ie . carcharodon hastalis according to the latest update ) . i don ' t know if anyone has done a study on tooth replacement rates in great whites - uppers vs . lowers . i should add that it is not clear if planus and hastalis descended from a common ancestor or if planus descended from hastalis .", "i should also note that the thicker - crowned teeth tend to be in the planus size range rather than the hastalis size range . i don ' t think i ' ve seen one over 1 3 / 4 inches ( 40mm ) which is the size of a large planus . c . hastalis lowers can reach just over 3 inches .", "also i will count the planus , hastalis and the thicker crowned makos that i got in my three days trip in sharktooth hill and i will ckeck if it matches to your numbers .", "that ' s a carcharodon hastalis . carcharodon planus has more rounded root lobes than that . a side view of that tooth would likely show a greater labiolingual thickness than you would see in planis .", "i had this great idea that i would take a side view photo of the big hooked \" planus / hastalis \" sandwiched between a similar sized hastalis and a large planus . the thought was we could get some clues by comparing the labial / lingual thickness of the three . all went well until i tried to pick a typical planus to include in the photo . working from about a dozen planus in the 1 . 5 \" - 1 . 75 \" range i was currently cleaning up from this past weekend ' s dig , i found that there are two pretty distinct root forms in this small group of planus teeth 1 ) the classic deeply \" u \" d mickey mouse rounded lobes and 2 ) a shallow \" u \" with more squared lobes typically associated with hastalis and the square lobed roots are significantly lab / ling thicker . i think i ' ve confused things even more - either the hooked \" planus \" tooth has two root forms that would most likely be determined by tooth position or \" hastalis \" has a much higher frequency of deeply curved teeth than previously thought ( in this case about a third of the teeth out of the dozen ) . agassiz has some explaining to do here . . . .", "that seems reasonable and would argue that the large 2 . 5 \" hooked tooth i showed earlier in the post is a large lateral c . planus . others have argued however that those squared off roots indicate that tooth is an abnormal c . hastalis . it may seem like splitting hairs , but tony ' s original question in the post was \" how large do planus get \" . 2 . 5 \" would likely place this tooth in question at the planus upper boundary so it would be rewarding to help define that boundary . probably no way to really settle the issue though - fossil taxonomy is never simple .", "to illustrate that point i started keeping track of what i collected every time i dug in the sth bonebed during the 2000 ' s . i kept every tooth i found that was just over half - complete . one day , i found 12 hooked planus , 25 \" normal \" hastalis and 3 thicker - crowned makos . another time , i found 30 hooked planus , 57 \" normal \" hastalis , and 3 thicker - crowned makos . a third trip counted 24 hooked planus , 49 \" normal \" hastalis , and 2 thicker - crowned makos . if the thicker - crowned teeth were planus lowers , i would have expected to find at least around half as many thicker - crowned teeth as hooked planus each trip but at best i found 1 / 4 as many and less than 1 / 10 as many on two other trips . someone would have to plug in more numbers ( other trip totals ) to put together a better sample but it does provide an indication of real frequency that would have to be explained in either case .", "i think planus is related to carcharodon hastalis to the point that it descended from it directly sometime in the early to early - middle miocene . there are intriguing isolated teeth that indicate this but i can ' t say i have definitive evidence .", "seemingly , the options are that either it ' s a c hastalis tooth with an unusually hooked crown , or it ' s a c planus tooth with both an exceptionally large crown and an unusually hastalis - like root , which seems somewhat less likely .", "i ' ll try to get isurus90064 to comment because he has seen a ton of planus and hastalis from the sth bonebed and elsewhere as well . i have another friend who was digging \" the hill \" before i was born so it will be interesting to get his opinion as well .", "it sounds like you know your stuff . i ' m away on business but will be home this week and will have to look at some of my teeth and get back to you . your photo with the tooth and the same - size hastalis and large planus is good evidence indicating that your tooth is a planus . it isn ' t as broad as hastalis tends to be . however , the root still looks more hastalis and what i ' ve learned over the years is that root characters are at least as important as crown characters in identifying teeth though perhaps more with respect to jaw position .", "this particular tooth is middle miocene so should be later than any hastalis / planus divergence . the root does have some characteristics of c . hastalis , however having collected many hundreds of sharktooth hill hastalis , up to 3 \" , i have never seen a hastalis crown deeply \" hooked \" like this . the crown on this tooth is also more compressed , while hastalis in this size range typically are very thick in cross section . an argument could be made that this is a pathological variant of c . hastalis , rather than c . planus . with a sample size of one however it is hard to confirm whether the root of this \" planus \" is abnormal or the crown of this \" hastalis \" is abnormal . either truth seems to point to a pretty unique tooth . it would be helpful to know if there are any other examples of large \" hooked \" hastalis from the fossil record , particularly from the round mountain formation .", "while i have c hastalis teeth with curved crowns , and a quick double - check on elasmo \" . . . does note that distally curved xiphodon [ hastalis ] teeth are relatively common \" , the above 2 . 5 \" tooth does look very much like the first upper anterior tooth in the cosmopolitodus planus dentition on that website .", "hey tony - i took the attached photos last night to add to the thread showing the lingual and labial views . i included several planus in the 2 \" range and several hastalis in the 2 1 / 2 \" range , all from sharktooth hill , for additional comparison . i didn ' t think to take side views but can do that as well .", "we could still claim that the tooth is atypical for planus crown morphology but still belongs to that species because it became relatively misshapen as a result of its extreme size but we run back into the problem of the root being the wrong shape for planus but the right shape for hastalis . shark teeth change slowly in a lineage with the root being even more conservative in terms of variation than the crown whether within a genus , a species , or the individual . the crown also takes up more space than the crown , so the larger the crown , the more opportunity for variation to be expressed . in other words in the absence of injury , we would expect more weirdness in the crown than the root so we would assume the root would carry at least as much if not more weight in the identification if the crown shows characters atypical for the taxon .", "it is interesting that your annual total is about the same as two of the daily totals from the sth bonebed . that would seem to add support to the thicker - crowned teeth as planus lowers idea . i think someone doing a study comparing calvert cliffs teeth and sth teeth would also have to look at how remains came to be preserved in each deposit to make sure some other factor wasn ' t messing with the totals in either case .", "i just looked through over 500 makos from multiple miocene sites in maryland and virginia and didn ' t find a single thicker crowned lower . i still have a bunch more makos from north carolina and thousands of broken ones to look through . i also looked at the makos from 3 trips to bakersfield and saw 12 thicker crowned lowers . it is still possible that a west coast hastalis variant had the thicker crowned lowers but i definitely lean toward planus having those thicker crowned lowers .", "i think it ' s easy to get distracted by the round or square root lobe paradigms . as noted above , even a small selection of c planus teeth will show both shapes for the same tooth positions . one can see the same in , probably , any decent selection of carcharodon sp teeth . that ' s the ' noise ' that makes tooth position assignment sometimes very difficult , and it ' s the reason one often hears the advice that the more teeth one can see and handle , the better .", "i think it ' s been said before that hastalis appears on the east coast sometime in the early miocene ( approx . 17 - 20 million years ago ) but it does not appear on the west coast until 15 - 16 million years ago . it appears \" suddenly \" in great abundance in the sth bonebed but it is not present in older beds in the same area ( no planus either ) such as the olcese sand ( which is in the age range of the calvert formation ) and the pyramid hill sand ( which is as old or older than the the lowest beds of the calvert ) .", "anyway , the only other thing to consider is that your tooth could be from a very old hastalis individual the teeth of which did not reach a size to match the age of the animal . though , i have to admit , even in that case , only in planus do you see the clearly -

supplementary file s1 , supplementary material online ) , but only a single example is found in t . corallinus . although proving absence is difficult , the clear homology of this gene to its orthologs and our generally high recovery of coding regions of the genome gives us confidence that a second paralog would be spotted if present . the duplication of cnc in s . maritima therefore seems to be specific to that species , rather than a myriapod symplesiomorphy .", "the recently published s . maritima genome data set was distinguished by its high levels of conservation across the majority of characterized gene families ( chipman et al . 2014 ) . to further test whether this \u201cprototypical arthropod cassette\u201d was also found in the millipede genome , we compared the complete annotated s . maritima proteome to the t . corallinus genome . of the 26 , 950 peptides in the drosophila melanogaster genome ( bdgp5 . 23 release ) , 15 , 995 ( 59 . 4 % ) possess a putative ortholog in the millipede genome ( tblastn , e < 10 \u2212 9 ) . this is comparable to the number of s . maritima genes possessing a hit in the d . melanogaster proteome . of 15 , 008 s . maritima peptides ( release 23 , downloaded from ensembl , september 18 , 2014 ) , 9 , 168 ( 61 . 1 % ) possess a putative ortholog in d . melanogaster ( blastp , e < 10 \u2212 9 ) .", "introduction the rusty millipede ( trignoiulus corallinus ) is a medium to large - sized millipede commonly found in central taiwan ( and in other areas as well ) . the body is brick red in color with pale black bands on the sides . the adult grows up to 5cm in length and can often be found in dead leaves and low rock walls around the botanical garden at dawn or in the evening . individuals are also frequently sighted crossing paved paths . their relatively large size means they are easy to see so squashed rusty millipedes are a common sight in the morning . the rusty millipede however is quite harmless and is in fact a beneficial insect that helps break down dead leaves into organic soil for plants . the rusty millipede usually breeds in summer around july and august . during this time , they can often be found mating in shady areas near rocks or stone walls at dawn or in the evening . though not rare , the species was only formally recorded and classified in taiwan by dr . zoltan korsos in 2004 .", "the exoskeleton of arthropods is made up of the polysaccharide chitin , along with a range of cuticular proteins . many kinds of cuticular protein are known , but the cpr family is the most common , with up to 150 genes found in some species of arthropod ( willis 2010 ) . these proteins can be recognized by a conserved , approximately 64 amino acid sequence ( rebers and willis 2001 ) . searches using sequences of known orthology of our data set identified 26 instances of this sequence in the t . corallinus genome . this is slightly fewer than the 39 members identified in the s . maritima genome ( chipman et al . 2014 ) , and as in that data set , both rr - 1 ( flexible cuticle ) and rr - 2 ( rigid cuticle ) associated forms of these genes can be identified , entirely consistent with the mandibulate origin of the rr - 1 family as proposed in chipman et al .

thionin ( pf00304 ) antifungal domains found in plants , but the differences in sequence outside the core domain mean that they may have novel characteristics . these and other novel bioagents may be of use and interest to a range of biochemical industries , given the often compromising niche inhabited by the millipede .", "the resource detailed here represents a vital data set for beginning investigation into the evolution of a variety of traits in the diplopoda , myriapoda , and the arthropoda more generally . it is a draft genomic data set with deep coverage of the coding complement and high recovery of the total expected genome size . with a broader sampling of genomic diversity , our ability to infer the true origin of genes and phenotypes will allow us greater biological insight , and allow firm conclusions to be drawn as to the reasons for the success and diversity of the arthropod lineage . this data set also contains a variety of intriguing findings . millipedes were the first arthropods to emerge onto land , and possess a variety of unique adaptations which have contributed to their success over their 400 - myr old history . this genomic resource will allow us to investigate the diversity of millipede novelties , such as their defensive chemicals and fungicides , with much more vigor than previous studies have been able to accomplish .", "we can also be more confident of assertions regarding myriapod genomics with the advent of this resource . for example , the extensive gene duplication seen in s . maritima is far less prevalent in this resource . although some duplication as a means to build genomic diversity seems to occur in this clade , it is of much more limited scope , and the scale of gene duplication seen in the centipede should therefore not necessarily be expected in other members of the myriapoda . our recovery of transcriptomic cassettes also allows a different angle to examine origin and loss of traits in arthropods from a molecular perspective\u2014we can confirm , for instance , the presence of dmbx , foxj2 / 3 , and foxl1 in the arthropod common ancestor , and show firm evidence for the existence of tbx 4 / 5 and soxf in this lineage .", "the advent of myriapod data sets will also allow a comprehensive revisiting of how extant gene complements were co - opted into the formation of new organs , particularly oxygen exchange systems , after terrestrialization in insects and myriapods ( e . g . , grillo et al . 2014 ; s\u00e1nchez - higueras et al . 2014 ) . although genes involved in the development of respiratory organs , such as apterous ( e . g . , damen et al . 2002 , sequence ; supplementary file s1 , supplementary material online ) , are present in our data set , evidence remains to be gathered on any potential role of these genes in respiration in the myriapoda . this is because terrestrialization occurred independently in insects and myriapods , and we are cautious about inferring functional homology between genes in these species without expression data . further research using this genome as a resource will however offer a unique insight into how terrestrialization was accomplished independently in these speciose and successful metazoan clades .", "as a developmental and genetic model , there is much that could be learnt from a millipede model species . segmentation , a subject of much interest in the insect developmental community , is presently still to be completely understood in the myriapoda , with janssen et al .

residue indel appears cleanly restricted to pegasoferae . there are 5 laurasiatheres with it and 5 without it , which needs further buttressing by pcr ( adding more basal species has the effect of localizing the event farther back on the stem ) . the parental gene did not develop the indel in any bioinformatically accessible species .", "it can always be asked whether this is the \" same \" l1ma9 in cetartiodactyls or merely a similar one from a separate insertion event of the active parental element . however pushing the putative event back to basal vicugna narrows the window for that . while this situation can be dismissed with an appeal to lineage -

and cat - like animals ) , and odd - toed ungulates such as horses and nosehorns . a higher skill increases taming and / or controlling chances , butchery yield , carcass cooking quality , and damage and defense for creatures in this group .", "pegasoferae is a novel proposal using rare genomic events involving retroposon insertions to establish the phylogenetic ordering within laurasiatheres , grouping bats , perissodactyls and carnivores to the exclusion of the other hoofed mammalian group , artiodactyls . bats have been placed in many previous locations , notably in the euarchonta wing ( outgroup to primates ) . while that particular idea is clearly refuted by many lines of evidence , the proper placement of bats remains under discussion .", "despite more intensive phylogenetic sampling , int391 continues to support pegasoferae as nishijimi et al originally stated . it should be noted that the mer - class retroposon , while not at issue here , exhibits the type of homoplasy that makes retroposons dicey as tree topology markers . introns are often susceptible to multiple insertions of similar retroposons as well as to complicated patterns of micro deletions that prevent their recognition even if they aren ' t fully deleted .", "the last exon of rbp3 , like in many proteins , does not appear to be under a great deal of selective pressure . this surfaces in a certain amount of observed ' terminal wander ' as various mutations allow readthru of the original stop codon to the next one that occurs by chance downstream . here pegasoferae , relative to artiodactyls , all share a one bp indel within coding that causes an altogether novel amino acid sequence to terminate the protein .", "this gene duplication might simply be restricted to this one genus ( or even this one species ) . alternatively it might have greater phylogenetic depth and be somewhat informative in resolving intra - bat taxonomy . this would require pcr of many additional bat species since no further genomic work is anticipated any time soon . it is not relevent to pegasoferae per se since bats are clearly monophyletic overall , even as the macro / micro distinction remains equivocal as a taxonomic character .", "again , this presented a favorable annotation situation because the two flanking exons are well - conserved and the intonic distance is short at about 1500 bp . using new genomic data , the species density can be brought up 10 laurasiatheres , tiling traces in unassembled genomes as necessary . the conflict with pegasoferae holds up even sampling at this greater taxonomic sampling depth : an orthologous l1ma9 is also missing in microbat , shrew , hedgehog but present with correct orientation and correct fragment coordinates in vicugna , pig , and dolphin .", "an example of int391 locus suggesting pegasoferae clade .

adjustment techniques [ 4 ] , [ 15 ] . the molecular consensus of an old root is becoming strong enough that it may become dogma without a close examination of the assumptions being made in such analyses . the true age of the orders and superorders has important implications for determining the overall paleoecology and biogeography of placental mammals during a period that included the breakup of continents and the extinction of terrestrial dinosaurs . reconciling the different paleontological and molecular divergence time estimates has important implications for basic methodologies that are central to evolutionary study .", "the strength of molecular divergence time studies is their potential to draw information from very long aligned sequences of many species . it is widely assumed that a huge amount of sequence data and the approximate rate constancy of sequence evolution [ 16 ] make molecular estimates more reliable than those based solely on fossil data . such analyses on a genomic scale are generally anticipated to be decisive because they are expected to be free of stochastic noise [ 17 ] , [ 18 ] .", "however , molecular studies acknowledge the problem of misspecification of the model of sequence change , which may result in seriously biased estimation . the relationships among placental orders do vary according to the data used and the taxa sampled [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 8 ] , [ 13 ] \u2013 [ 15 ] , [ 19 ] \u2013 [ 22 ] . most methods of phylogenetic inference rely strongly on probabilistic models of sequence evolution , and neither directly detect nor correct for convergent evolution [ 23 ] . when left uncorrected , such \u201chomoplasy\u201d may attract lineages and underestimate certain pairwise distances . this in turn distorts branch ( edge ) length estimates , which are of primary importance for divergence time estimation . while some methods will detect potential convergent evolution , for example hadamard conjugations and splitstree [ 24 ] , kitazoe et al . have developed multidimensional vector space ( mvs ) representation methods to both detect convergent evolution among estimated distances and to also correct for this bias [ 25 ] \u2013 [ 27 ] .", "a further problem facing molecular dating is the evolutionary rate constancy , or lack of constancy , over long periods . since its proposal in 1965 [ 28 ] , the molecular clock hypothesis has been one of the most hotly debated subjects in evolutionary biology . it is now widely accepted that a molecular clock tends to hold well for closely related organisms , but breaks down with increasing evolutionary divergence . to adjust for the inevitable fluctuation of evolutionary rates , nonparametric [ 17 ] , [ 18 ] , local clock [ 29 ] , [ 30 ] , and hierarchical bayesian [ 31 ] methods have been developed . these methods are robust against stochastic fluctuations of evolutionary rates [ 31 ] \u2013 [ 33 ] . however , they may cause serious problems when pronounced transient changes of rate occur , because they overly smooth such rate changes . in this article , we show the magnitude of such problems using clear worked examples .", "to improve the detection of , and robustness to , abrupt rate changes , we have developed a new procedure that minimizes the local variability of the inverse of the evolutionary rate . just as the effective size of fluctuating populations is represented by the harmonic mean over time , the mean evolutionary rate among lineages is expressed better by the harmonic mean . this approach is especially useful when branch lengths measured in the expected number of substitutions per site ( the products of rates and times ) are estimated accurately , and there are either rapid transient changes of rate ( hence large rate heterogeneity ) or a general bias towards a speed up or slow down in rates through time .", "using this new procedure , an analysis of 69 mitochondrial protein sequences ( 3660 amino acid sites in total ) from placental mammals identified a rapid acceleration of evolutionary rate for the lineage directly leading to the common ancestor of supraprimates and an even more marked one for the lineage leading to laurasiatheria . this acceleration was followed closely by a strong deceleration , which persisted in nearly all lineages of laurasiatheria . in contrast , almost all lineages of afrotheria and xenarthra seem to have retained rates similar to that of the root . this view is in marked contrast to current rate - change penalty functions . the robustness of the new procedure is assessed using simulations that show the types of change that most concern biologists ; speedups or slowdowns through time , transient rate changes , and rate changes that are do not follow a normal or transformed normal distribution , as well as stochastic variation . a revised estimate of the origin of placental mammals is as young as 84 mya , which is much more recent than current estimates using molecular data . the inferred age of deeper splits in the placental tree are compared with the rate of occurrence of new species from the north american fossil record . these two sources of data are far more congruent than is suggested by using current , possibly strongly misleading , dating methods .", "mitochondrial protein sequences are used widely in phylogenetic studies and have been particularly popular in studying placental mammals . a desirable feature of these data is relatively long sequences , good taxon sampling and very little missing data . following alignment , we retained 3660 amino acid sites present in all of 62 placental mammals plus seven outgroup taxa ( table s1 gives the accession numbers of protein sequences ) . in contrast , large nuclear protein datasets of mammals with diverse taxon sampling [ e . g . 3 ] , [ 4 ] show a large proportion of missing data . such missing heterogeneous data may lead to complex systematic errors in distance estimation [ 34 ] . this is particularly relevant since mvs analyses work best with low stochastic noise ( hence relatively long sequences ) , diverse taxon sampling with a considerable proportion of taxa showing minimal convergent evolution , and minimal bias of the input distances from sources such as missing data .", "we adopted a standard two - step procedure to estimate divergence times . the first step is to estimate the phylogenetic tree with unconstrained branch lengths in units of expected numbers of substitutions per site . given the problems with convergent evolution in mitochondrial data [ 4 ] , [ 5 ] , [ 22 ] , [ 25 ] , we used the mvs procedure to correct the input distances for convergent evolution . a variant of the core set approach [ 27 ] to mvs was used in this instance ( materials and methods ) . fixing the topology to the tree obtained by mvs , which is very similar to trees obtained by previous authors using varied data sets [ 2 ] \u2013 [ 5 ] , branch lengths were reestimated using maximum likelihood ( ml ) in the program paml [ 35 ] . we used the jtt [ 36 ] + gamma model with \u03b1 = 0 . 5 for these analyses . the second step uses the tree and its branch lengths , some fossil constrained nodes , and a penalty or cost function to dampen rate changes , to infer divergence times of all nodes and evolutionary rates along all branches .", "three cost functions , f add , f log , and f ir , were applied to the mvs and ml trees . these functions penalize the fluctuation of rates , and do this on either a linear scale ( here called the add function ) , on the log rate ( log ) , or on the inverse rates ( ir ) , respectively ( see equations ( 1 ) , ( 2 ) , and ( 4 ) in materials and methods ) . the tree estimated by mvs and f add is denoted mvs - f add and so on ( while ml - f add indicates use of ml branch lengths ) .", "to calibrate these trees , we used eight fossil constraints , all taken from previous studies ( see figure 1 caption ) [ 4 ] , [ 15 ] . the divergence times were estimated by then minimizing each cost function subject to these constraints ( see materials and methods ) . the ci was calculated using a likelihood interpretation ( see materials and methods ) of the cost function residual analogous to the method used in multidivtime [ 31 ] . this captures the error caused by deviations of the tree ' s branch lengths away from their expected values and includes the unpredictability of rate changes , which might mimic brownian motion , for example . it will also incorporate variability arising from ancestral polymorphism . polymorphism will cause fluctuations of the edge lengths of the tree when the analysis has multiple nodes constrained by fossil or other data [ c . f . 13 ] . generally , the time at the most recent common ancestor of sequences from different species is older than the time at speciation . the extent of this difference varies among internal nodes due to both the stochastic nature of the coalescent and factors governing its expected magnitude , such as population size . the cost function does not take account of this bias , but the ci does include the variance arising from ancestral polymorphism at internal nodes .", "a and b show the mvs - f ir and ml - f log trees , respectively . the numbers 1\u201361 denote the ancestral nodes . the red numbers 1\u20138 indicate the internal nodes with fossil constraints which are as follows : 1 , 49\u201361 ; 2 , 52\u201358 ; 3 , 45\u201363 ; 4 , 43\u201360 ; 5 , < 63 ; 6 , > 12 ; 7 , 36\u201355 ; 8 , 54\u201365 ( all in mya ) [ see 4 ] , [ 15 ] . the colors of the branches denote inferred evolutionary rates ( in units of \u00d710 \u22129 / site per year ) as follows : black , < 0 . 2 ; dark blue , 0 . 2\u20130 . 3 ; light blue , 0 . 3\u20130 . 4 ; green , 0 . 4\u20130 . 5 ; brown , 0 . 5\u20130 . 6 ; yellow , 0 . 6\u20130 . 7 ; and red , > 0 . 7 .", "the mvs - f ir analysis ( figure 1a ) estimated the age of the root at 84 . 2 mya with a 95 % confidence interval ( ci ) of 80 . 7\u201388 . 4 mya ( table 1 ) . this time is much more recent than the result of the ml - f l analysis ( figure 1b ) , i . e . , 122 . 2 ( 95 % ci , 112 . 2\u2013144 . 7 ) mya . note that , ml - f l is giving results consistent with that reported in earlier studies [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 5 ] , [ 12 ] \u2013 [ 15 ] , indicating that the younger root for placentals returned using the function f ir ( see below ) is due to the method and not the data . the difference between the f log and the f ' log function in table 1 is explained in materials and methods . it is the f log method that most closely approximates the brownian motion assumed by multidivtime .", "figure 1 shows the estimated ancestral rates across the tree , while figure 2 represents the inferred evolutionary rates going from the root to a terminal . the single instance of root to fin whale is shown in figure 2 , while figure s1 traces the evolutionary rates inferred by different methods along seven representative lineages . the mvs - f ir tree identified an abrupt acceleration of evolutionary rate near the common ancestor of both supraprimates and laurasiatheria , then a very strong acceleration in just the ancestral lineage of laurasiatheria ( figures 1a and 2a ) . this acceleration was followed closely by a strong deceleration along nearly all lineages of laurasiatheria . in contrast , almost all lineages of afrotheria and xenarthra have retained rates close to that of the root . there are also sporadic later accelerations , for example that among hedgehogs and moon rat ( figure 1a ) .", "figures a and b , respectively , trace the estimated rates along edges on analyses using mvs and ml branch lengths . the root time of of the f add analysis in figure a and b was set at a large value ( 400 mya ) because the numerical calculation continues towards an infinite root time .", "the cost function f ir detected an acceleration\u2013deceleration pattern near the base of laurasiatheria using both the mvs and ml branch lengths ( the red lines of figure 2 ) , whereas the function f log showed a far more flat prediction of generally lower evolutionary rates that led to older root times ( the green lines of figure 2 ) . even more extreme , the cost function f add inferred gradually decreasing rates in all deep branches of the mvs and ml trees ( the blue lines of figure 2 ) , and the root time tended to infinity . table 1 summarizes the root time values estimated by various models ( all the node divergence times from these models are listed in table s2 ) .", "table 1 also compares the inferred times with those obtained from r8s , a popular program for estimating absolute rates [ 17 ] , [ 18 ] . this program has two options of for its cost functions , f add and f\u2032 log ( equation ( 3 ) in materials and methods ) . it also takes account of stochastic noise caused by the finite length of the sequences used to derive the branch lengths using a penalized - likelihood approach . the fitting to the estimated branch lengths is expressed by the log likelihood , while the weight for the cost function is estimated using cross validation . in our mitochondrial dataset , with its long sequences , the root time values changed little due to the cross validation effect ( the reason is explained in materials and methods ) . further , root divergence time estimates returned by r8s do not show confidence intervals in table 1 , since r8s only assesses the sampling variance of node times due to stochastic errors in branch lengths due to finite sequence length ( it does this via the bootstrap ) and does not include the effect of stochastic variation of evolutionary rate . this source of error remains as sequence lengths go to infinity , and will be dominant with long sequences .", "figure 3 represents the chronological distribution of the internal node density for the mvs - f ir tree ( figure 1a ) compared with the rate of new species appearing in the well - studied north american fossil record . to avoid potential bias of divergence times in the molecular tree due to species sampling , the scaling constant was determined by a least - squares fit to the fossil data in the period 85\u201350 mya .", "the blue squares show the rate of the appearance of new species based on the fossil record [ adapted from 3 ] . at present , such quantitative data are limited to the well -

f log tree ( figure 1b ) . the node density is given by the number of nodes in an 8 myr sliding window . a scaling constant for the molecular frequencies was calculated via a least - squares fit to the fossil data in the period 85\u201350 mya .", "the mvs - f ir analysis reconciles molecular with fossil data in two ways . first , the chronological distribution of the internal node density is clearly largely consistent with the rate of appearance of novel fossil species . this is despite the fact that the paleontological data assessed are limited to the well - studied north american record [ 10 ] . both the mvs - f ir tree and the fossil record suggest accelerating taxonomic diversity near the k\u2013t boundary , rather than a longer slower buildup [ 2 ] \u2013 [ 5 ] , [ 12 ] \u2013 [ 15 ] . use of the less robust f log criterion seems to suggest a prolonged increase in diversity that agrees far less with the quantitative fossil record . this congruence with fossils does not automatically show that the combination of mvs and f ir is the best way to analyze this data , but it does reframe the discussion of the relationship between the fossil and molecular times into one where the molecular dates are being looked at far more critically .", "second , and more indicatively , the cost function f ir resolves incongruence among the fossil constraints / inferred divergence times in different parts of the molecular tree . the best fossil constraints in laurasiatheria suggest much older times than constraints in other parts of the tree [ 4 ] , [ 37 ] . the mvs - f ir , mvs - f log , and mvs - f add trees with all constraints give the root as 84 . 2 , 105 . 0 , and \u221e mya , respectively ( table 1 ) . removing the whale\u2013hippo constraint gives 82 . 4 , \u221e , and 91 . 2 mya ; removing the horse\u2013rhino constraint gives , 82 . 8 , 105 . 0 , and \u221e mya ; and removing both sets of constraints gave 82 . 9 , 87 . 2 , and \u221e mya . thus , in this case only the f ir tree is insensitive to \u201cconstraint sampling\u201d .", "finally , there is a good fossil calibration for tarsier [ 4 ] that was withheld because it is not used in both references 4 and 15 . it suggests that human and tarsier split around 50\u201360 mya and the molecular trees suggest the human - loris split was not much earlier ( probably < 5 myr earlier ) . despite our use of whale\u2013hippo and horse\u2013rhino calibrations , the mvs - f ir tree ( figure 1 ) gives a human - loris split close to this age , in contrast to earlier studies [ 4 ] , [ 15 ] , [ 33 ] .", "we highlight two distinct properties of the new function f ir with the help of evolutionary simulations and worked examples . the first property is its ability to detect a transient acceleration of evolutionary rate . such an effect might be caused by a burst of positive selection and / or a bottleneck in population size . the second is to assess the effects of both stochastic fluctuations and systematic bias on the robustness of estimated times . here , we model bias in the form of either a general slowdown or a general acceleration of evolutionary rate across the whole tree .", "we first modeled a strong instantaneous acceleration as an analogue to what is inferred by f ir to have occurred ancestral branch leading to laurasiatheria . we simulated a 32 - taxon symmetric tree in which a molecular clock holds except for an abrupt elevation ( by a factor of 10 ) of evolutionary rate along a short internal branch ( the red line in figure 4a ) . this example is useful for demonstrating the efficacy of the f ir function and something similar appears on both the mvs - f ir and ml - f ir mitochondrial trees . the times at the internal nodes were set to 48 , 56 , 64 , and 72 mya , and the root time was set to 80 mya . on this weighted tree , the cost functions were minimized with two constrained node times , which corresponded to two fossil calibration points . only the f ir function accurately estimated the true divergence times and appeared robust against the abrupt change ( figure 4b ) . in contrast , the functions f log and f add inferred gradual rate changes ( figure 4e ) , which are erroneous and lead to overestimation of the root time along with that of many other nodes ( figures 4c and 4d ) . table 2 summarizes the root time values inferred by various models . table 2 includes the result of r8s with the cross - validation method .", "a worked example of the effect of a transient elevation of evolutionary rate upon estimated divergence times .", "in this worked example using a symmetric 32 - taxon tree ( figure a ) , a global molecular clock holds , except for a short - term increase in evolutionary rate along one branch ( the red line in figure a ) . the true root time was set to 80 mya , and the times at the internal nodes are 48 , 56 , 64 , and 72 mya . the deep internal branch ( the red line in figure a ) is given an evolutionary rate ten times that of the remaining edges . the various cost functions were minimized subject to two calibrated nodes ( the red numbers 1 and 2 in figure a ) , using the exact branch lengths of this example as input data . the cost functions f ir , f log , and f add inferred the weighted trees of figures b , c and d , respectively . figures e\u2013g show the trace of evolutionary rates along the lineages from the root to taxa numbers 5 , 9 , and 25 of figure a , respectively . the inferred age of the root for each cost function is shown with an arrow . the function f ir recovered the original pattern of rate change , whereas the other two functions inferred far more gradual changes , which resulted in a substantial overestimation of the root time .", "we next simulated stochastic rate fluctuations by themselves , plus either a prevailing slowing down or acceleration of rates through time . such simulations are distinct from a brownian - type process , and are used to gauge the general robustness of the functions . to impose rate fluctuations on the same basic tree as figure 4a , but without the abrupt rate change , the age of the root was set to 100 mya . we assumed infinite length of sequences and that the branch lengths are known without uncertainty . next a branch was randomly selected proportional to its duration in time and all its descendant branch lengths were multiplied by a factor ( chosen randomly ) from a uniform distribution of range 0 . 5\u20131 . 5 . a total of 25 such rate changes were placed on the tree to give the final branch lengths for that tree . these branch lengths were used as the input data and the various cost functions were minimized with on calibrated internal node , and then determined all node times . we repeated this procedure 600 times to obtain the mean and standard error of the root time . we also simulated the two other cases . the only difference was the range of the uniform distribution used . using a range of 1 . 0\u20131 . 75 the model is biased toward rate acceleration through time , while using and 0 . 25\u20131 induces a rate slow down through time ( a probable situation in the placentals generally ) . as table 3 shows , the function f ir gave reasonable estimates with a bias towards deceleration , whereas f add gave an infinite root time in 139 of 600 samples . these undefined root - time values were set arbitrarily to 200 mya before calculating the mean and standard error .", "the mvs model was shown previously to recover the correct tree in a simulation with two strongly convergent lineages [ 26 ] that were grouped erroneously by standard methods ( including the neighbor joining ( nj ) [ 38 ] and ml [ 35 ] methods ) . here , we examined a different question ; this is how well the mvs method recovers the true branch lengths , which are of primary importance when estimating divergence times . we simulated the evolution of a sequence of 10 4 amino acid sites , following the tree depicted in figure 5 . the model of amino acid substitutions used was the jtt [ 36 ] . convergent evolution was then imposed on this data . this was done by sharing parts of the sequences among three ingroup clades plus the outgroup . the red lines in figure 5 indicate which lineages shared sequence and were therefore subject to a form of convergent evolution .", "amino acid substitutions were evolved on the shown weighted tree using the jtt model [ 36 ] of amino acid substitutions . after this , 30 % of sites were swapped between the four lineages indicated by the red lines .", "pairwise distances were then estimated from the terminal sequences obtained above using the same jtt model . a modified mvs core - set procedure [ 27 ] was able to recognize that the tree consisted of three groups of eight sequences which had additive distances within each group and the outgroup . the mvs procedure then converted the distances within the three ingroups into three sets of perfectly additive distances and sequentially combined them to form a single core set ( materials and methods ) . the final mvs tree was obtained by modifying the distances between this single ingroup core set and the outgroup following the rules described in materials and methods .", "the branch lengths recovered by the mvs model reproduced the true values accurately ( figure 6 ) . the distribution around the diagonal line in figure 6 represents the stochastic fluctuation of the estimated distances ; that is , the magnitude of this fluctuation did not change after the simulation was rerun without convergent evolution . in contrast , the nj and ml trees returned branch lengths that were affected clearly by convergent evolution . the worst affected branch lengths were ancestral to the groups showing convergent evolution ( underestimated ) or else were leading to the sister groups of the groups affected by convergent evolution ( overestimated ) .", "the tree topology inferred by these methods was identical to the tree that generated the data , so the estimated branch lengths are plotted against their true values . the blue numbers show the branch index , as used on figure 5 , of outliers . note , all the outliers are internal branches ancestral to the four lineages undergoing convergent evolution or are ancestral to the sister group to these lineages . branch lengths ancestral to the groups undergoing convergent evolution are underestimated by the ml and nj methods , whereas those ancestral to their sister taxa are overestimated .", "we begin the discussion by examining why the current cost functions , f log and f add , overestimated the age of the root in the worked example with strong rate heterogeneity in the form of a short term highly elevated evolutionary rate . it is also important to examine the profile of the cost function around their minimal values for the age of the root . the functions f log and f add showed asymmetric behavior around the estimated root time , even in worked examples with a perfect molecular clock ( data not shown ) , whereas the f ir profile was symmetric and parabolic in shape . the asymmetry seen with f log and f add increased in response to a general bias towards deceleration of rates through time ( figure 7a ) . in particular , the function f add showed a monotonic decrease with respect to increasing age of the root , that is , its estimate tended to infinity . thus , asymmetric behavior of a cost function seems to be a symptom of unstable estimation of the age of the root . a similar strong asymmetry appeared in the profile of the current cost function with respect to the age of the root of the mitochondrial tree of placental mammals ( figure 7b ) , irrespective of whether mvs or ml branch lengths were used . comparing figures 7a and 7b suggests that bias due to decelerating evolutionary rates occurred in the evolutionary history of placental mammals , and is impacting the ability of current methods to estimate the correct age of the root .", "this figure shows the profile of the cost function with respect to the age of the root estimated by three different cost functions . because the root age estimated by function f add was going to infinity , it was set to 200 mya for illustrative purposes . figure a is a single example from a tree simulated under the scenario of random auto - correlated changes of rate moving towards the tips , strongly biased towards a deceleration of evolutionary rates as time progresses ( from the set of simulations used for table 3 ) . the true age of the root was 100 mya . figure b shows the results using the mvs tree derived from the mitochondrial sequences of placental mammals . the dotted line indicates the 95 % confidence interval of the estimated age of the root using the sum - of - squares approach described in materials and methods .", "other approaches to divergence time estimation are under active development . for example , drummond et al . [ 39 ] recently developed a set of bayesian procedures to jointly estimate divergence times , evolutionary rates , and the tree topology . the uncorrelated variable rate model they use , which assumes independence of evolutionary rates between branches , may also be able to identify instantaneous accelerations . however , the magnitude of rate acceleration may be underestimated because hierarchical bayes estimates can generally be regarded as shrinkage estimators [ 40 ] . an important future direction is to assess the performance of the various estimators in simulations where rate variability is a mixture of an autocorrelated process plus rare , but strong , instantaneous accelerations .", "our refined approaches resolve apparent contradictions between the quantitative molecular and paleontological data of placental mammals . given such agreement , there is no need for ancillary hypotheses such as the long fuse model [ 2 ] , [ 5 ] , [ 9 ] , [ 12 ] \u2013 [ 15 ] , [ 41 ] to explain the lack of any positively identified fossils of modern placental mammals prior to about 75 million years ago . in addition , dates of markedly less than 100 mya for the root of placental mammals also bring into question earlier hypotheses that traditional continental drift models explain the geographic distribution of the four major groups of placental mammals [ 2 ] \u2013 [ 5 ] , [ 13 ] , [ 42 ] . we anticipate that the f ir cost function developed in this paper will provide an improved methodology for a wide range of molecular studies because its robustness to rapid fluctuations of rate is essential to understanding events such as adaptive evolution . for example , because acquisition of new molecular functions can be achieved in a few million years after gene duplications [ 40 ] , the duration of an inflated evolutionary rate may be surprisingly short , and , correspondingly , difficult to detect . we hope our new methods will be beneficial in such situations and will lead to a richer understanding of molecular evolution .", "because the branch lengths of a phylogenetic tree are estimated from the data as the product of the evolutionary rate of a branch and its time duration , these two factors cannot be directly estimated separately . it has become standard to use loose constraints to accommodate uncertainty and it is often wise to exclude constraints if there is no firm basis for them . information on the age of some internal nodes may be fairly directly available from the fossil record . an example of this is the horse - rhino split [ 13 ] . if the molecular clock [ 16 ] governs the process of molecular evolution well , we can accurately estimate the times at other nodes given just a single reliable calibration point . however , the assumption of the molecular clock is often rejected by the fit of a clock - like tree to the data .", "the most widely used assumption in order to model the evolutionary rate changes away form being constant ( or away from a clock ) is to introduce a stochastic process . for example , sanderson", "that rate changes follow a random walk with independent increments randomly drawn from a normal distribution . likewise , thorne et al .", "uses rates at the nodes , instead of average rates along branches , as the free parameters ) . this can be interpreted as an assumption that the log rate undergoes brownian motion . that is , independent increments of normal random variables , whose variances are proportional to the average time duration between the pair of branches ( that is , the average length in time of the two branches ) . recently , sanderson implemented the unweighted cost function", "however , the estimated rates based on any of the above cost functions may overly smooth the change of evolutionary rates when a pronounced transient change of rate has occurred . in turn , biased estimates of evolutionary rates will lead to biased estimates of divergence times . here we propose a new cost function , which penalizes the local rate deviation from the harmonic mean . for simplicity , we ignore the stochastic variance of branch length", ", which goes to zero with increasingly long sequences . denote the branch length and inverse rate of the", "because f ir places a smaller penalty on abrupt rate changes than do previous models , it can confine an abrupt change close to where it occurred on the tree . in contrast , f add and f log a priori put stress upon the smoothness of evolutionary rate change from one branch to the next , and this may propagate the effect of an abrupt rate change over successive branches . in this article , the variable ( t n ) ( the divergence times ) were estimated by minimizing the cost functions ( equations 1\u20134 ) subject to the ( fossil ) constraints without introducing other modifiers such as cross validation .", "at first glance , it seems most intuitive to use a penalty such as ( rate 1 \u2212rate 2 ) 2 ; this has been the implicit assumption until now [ 31 ] and is the basis of published programs such as r8s and multidivtime [ 17 ] , [ 18 ] , [ 31 ] . it rests on the implicit expectation that any reasonable type of smoothing of changes in rate will give a similar answer . however , a simple linear form for the difference in rates is misleading , and this is illustrated by considering the general problem of estimating velocity ( rate ) given distance ( in our case branch length ) . going from point a to b at velocity v 1 , then back at velocity v 2 , the average velocity ( v av ) is equal not to the standard arithmetic mean , but to the harmonic mean , 1 / v av = ( 1 / v 1 + 1 / v 2 ) / 2 . further , going from point ( node ) a to b at velocity ( rate ) v 1 , and from point b to c at velocity v 2 , then the distances traveled ( d ab and d bc ) need no longer be equal so we must use weights . specifically , v av = ( d ab + d bc ) / ( t 1 + t 2 ) , where t 1 = d ab / v 1 and t 2 = d bc / v 2 . as a result , 1 / v av = ( d ab / v 1 + d bc / v 2 ) / ( d ab + d bc ) . this is the same form as the average quantity a n used to obtain f ir ( equation 4 ) . the use of the harmonic mean becomes important when v 1 differs greatly from v 2 .", "the bayesian approach estimates the divergence times and evolutionary rates in the form of a posterior distribution , which is summarized approximately as p ( b | r , t ) exp ( \u2212\u03bbf ) . here b , r , and t are the vectors of the estimated branch lengths , evolutionary rates , and divergence times , respectively , while f is the cost function . the value of \u03bb expresses the weight for the penalty , and is called a hyperparameter . introducing the distribution for the hyperparameter is done via a so - called hyper - prior ; the hyperparameter is then estimated concurrently with the posterior distribution . the penalized likelihood approach maximizes log p ( b | r , t ) \u2212 \u03bbf . the weight for the penalty \u03bb is estimated using cross - validation . when the sequences are long enough , for example concatenated mitochondrial protein sequences , it is often safe to assume that the branch lengths are estimated accurately , that is with minimal stochastic error ( but not necessarily without systematic error , something we address in this paper using mvs ) . accordingly , it is assumed that the products of rates and times are known exactly . thus in a situation of long , or very long sequences ( e . g . genomic alignments ) , the results returned by using just the penalty function will converge to those returned by either a bayesian or a penalized likelihood approach with the same type of cost function .", "in the mvs method , the additivity of evolutionary distances is converted using the expected orthogonality among branch vectors in a multidimensional euclidean space [ 25 ] . if the estimated pairwise distances do not satisfy additivity , mvs provides an index to measure deviations from orthogonality without specifying a tree structure . this index enables one to diagnose whether a distance matrix is compatible with a tree and to modify the biased distances until they satisfy orthogonality , that is , with a zero value for the index . here , a revised core - set approach , that is , an extension of [ 27 ] , is applied to correct the observed pairwise distances for convergent evolution .", "the first step of this approach is to divide the set of taxa into subgroups and to correct the distances between pairs in each subgroup . we decompose the taxa based on partitions with both strong biological support and high bootstrap support . the deviation from additivity of pairwise distances is much smaller within each subgroup than across the whole distance matrix . if an anomalously large deviation is observed associated with a single taxon within a subgroup , that taxon is removed temporarily from the analysis . when the only deviations between distances within a subset of taxa are judged to be due to stochastic noise , the pairwise distances are modified by solving the equation of motion ( a method using a many body kinetic equation in physics ) , which uses the index of the deviation from additivity as the potential energy [ 25 ] , [ 26 ] . the modified distance matrix within a subgroup is interpreted as the true additive distance matrix ( core set ) achieved by minimal modification of the original distances . generally , the modified distances are very close to the distances estimated by the nj method for just these taxa . then , the excluded taxa are deposited into this core set tree by solving the equation of motion with the same potential function . assuming that convergent evolution and long - branch attraction are the main source of deviation from additivity , we allow for only positive corrections of the biased distances between the core set and excluded taxa ( that is , distances can only get bigger ) ."]}

outs for short winter periods when the winds have died . they enjoy cooler temperatures and take advantage of the seasonal moisture .", "almost all frogs have the same body structure less for variable size and colour differences . females are invariably larger than males . front legs are short , hind legs are large and the body and head are flat and bereft of a neck . the tongue is attached to the front of the mouth , a feature that allows them to flick it out quickly to capture prey . they have internal organs such as a heart , liver , lungs and kidneys and although frogs breathe by lungs , they also breath through their skin .", "the skin is thin and moist and many species have poison glands in their skin which irritates an attackers mouth , causing the predator to release the frog . there is only 1 species of frog that has hair ( the african hairy - frog , what else ? ) and some species can change colour with changes in temperature , light and humidity .", "with such large eyes , you would expect frogs to have good eyesight . their eyes bulge out enabling them to see in almost any direction to capture food and stay safe . frogs that hunt at night have a better sense smell than those that don ' t and they have a delicate sense of touch , particularly when in water . tongues and mouths have numerous taste buds enabling them to spit out bad - tasting food .", "species such as the painted reed frog are very beautiful . unfortunately frogs have been branded as cold and slimy , ugly and repulsive but a different opinion can be formed if they are handled and studied a bit . there are no poisonous or dangerous frogs in the country and you won ' t catch warts from picking up a toad either !", "frogs are difficult to recognize . they make distinctive sounds , as do birds , calling out to females in the mating season in a louder voice than that of a female . to find a frog it is best to go out at night ( or in the rain ) with a torch . this is not advisable if you in the okavango delta when other potentially dangerous nocturnal creatures are around doing the same thing ( less the torch ) but many species are likely to occur in the vicinity of lodges and camps . so after your traditional early morning or late afternoon game drive in etosha national park or naukluft national park , it might be possible to go on an accompanied night ' frogging safari ' .", "there are 3 stages in the life of a frog . egg , tadpole and a 4 - limbed adult . most frogs mate in the rainy season in water . the male will enter first , probably as a sign of bravado , to attract some mates . females will only respond to calls from the same species and they are grasped by the males as soon as they enter the water before clinging to her back . the male then fertilizes the eggs in this position and they will hatch between 3 to 25 days afterwards , depending on species and temperature . a tiny tailed animal , known as a tadpole hatches from the egg .", "the tadpole is not completely developed when they hatch . they resemble tiny fish and breath through gills . their form changes as they grow . hind legs appear first , enabling them to swim and feed on plants and decaying animal matter , frog eggs or other tadpoles . once the digestive system has changed they can eat live animals . the tadpole will then lose its gills and its metamorphosis ( change ) takes place into a tiny frog . most tadpoles change into adults within 8 to 10 weeks . enemies of tadpoles include platannas , water tortoises , fish , dragonfly larvae , water beetles , water bugs and water scorpions . adult frogs eat mainly insects and other small insects such as earthworms , minnows and spiders .", "frog or a toad ? toads are one of the frog families . it is deemed incorrect to separate the two . one is an order ( frogs ) , the other is a family within that order ( toads ) .", "the body of a toad is broader , flatter and darker than a frog ' s .", "most toads live in land . adult toads go to water only to breed .", "frogs benefit humans in many ways . the consume large numbers of insects , which could become pests . their legs provide us with food , the legs of larger frogs are considered a delicacy in many countries . there are 12 families of frogs found in namibia", "copyright \u00a9 1999 -

' \u201d it has long been known that alma does not mean \u201cvirgin . \u201d rather , the hebrew word applies to any young woman . so the english translation of that line should read along the lines of \u201ca young woman \u2026 will bear a son\u2026\u201d ( the evidence is widely known and readily available , including in my and god said . )", "based on this mistranslation , though , most modern translations \u2014 going back to the kjv and including the recently published niv \u2014 translate \u201ca virgin \u2026 will bear a son\u201d here . ( the niv has a footnote , \u201cor young woman . \u201d ) the new nab ( \u201cnabre\u201d ) is a notable exception . that version now has , \u201cthe young woman , pregnant and about to bear a son , shall name him emmanuel . \u201d their choice to go with \u201cyoung woman\u201d reflects the correct understanding of the original hebrew ( though i do have problems with their phrasing of the rest of the line ) .", "importantly , though , isaiah 7 : 14 is not the description of \u201cthe virgin birth\u201d of jesus . rather , we find the virgin birth first in matthew 1 : 18 - 25 , which brings us to the second issue .", "as part of the description of jesus\u2019 birth , the text in matthew cites isaiah 7 : 14 , noting that jesus\u2019 birth \u201cfulfilled\u201d ( plirow ) the phrophet isaiah\u2019s words ( a point i return to below ) .", "these combine to create a clear account : jesus was born to a virgin .", "the text in luke 1 : 26 - 38 is similar in nature . though again \u201cvirgin\u201d is replaced with a euphemism ( \u201cmary asked the angel , ` how [ is it possible that i will conceive ] since i do not know [ ginosko ] \u201d any men ? ) , the text is clear , adding for emphasis that \u201cwith god nothing is impossible . \u201d", "the actual descriptions indicate a virgin birth , regardless of what the words in isaiah 7 : 14 mean .", "the third issue is how to reconcile the virgin birth with isaiah 7 : 14 , which is cited in matthew 1 : 23 .", "the most straightforward way is to note that even though isaiah 7 : 14 refers to a \u201cyoung woman , \u201d not a \u201cvirgin , \u201d the text doesn\u2019t say that she wasn\u2019t a virgin . she could have been . ( by comparison , the text also doesn\u2019t say that the woman had long hair , but she might have . ) in other words , isaiah 7 : 14 , even with the better understanding of the original text , doesn\u2019t contradict anything in the nt .", "the more nuanced way to reconcile the two texts is to recognize what the verb in matthew 1 : 22 , plirow , really indicates . though the word is commonly translated \u201cfulfill\u201d ( as in , \u201call this took place to fulfill what the lord had said through the prophet [ isaiah ] \u201d ) , better is \u201cmatch , \u201d as i describe here ( \u201c what happens to prophecies in the new testament ? \u201d ) . i won\u2019t go through the whole explanation again , but for now i think it suffices to note that matthew knew that the details in isaiah 7 : 14 differed from those he was describing . after all , the name of the child in isaiah 7 : 14 was immanuel , not jesus .", "either way ( and even though it\u2019s not really my place to say ) , i don\u2019t see a huge theological problem here . and even if there were a problem , i would still be in favor of an accurate translation .", "it seems pretty clear to me that isaiah 7 : 14 mentions a pregnant woman ( who , at least as far as translation can take us , may or may not have been a virgin ) and that the nt refers to the virgin birth of jesus . it seems equally clear that the lack of perfect harmony between the texts is in keeping with other kinds of prophesy in the nt .", "still , from the international stage ( \u201ctraditionalists may see [ the nabre\u2019s change from \u201cvirgin\u201d to \u201cyoung woman\u201d in isaiah 7 : 14 ] as a step away from the original meaning\u201d ) to local communities ( \u201cif the meaning of the language is changed to reflect that mary may not have been a virgin , you\u2019ve just denied the divinity of christ\u201d ) the discussion seems skewed to me . it seems to start with theology , and then ask how the translations can be doctored to match that theology , while i think an accurate translation should stand on its own .", "or to put it another way , it seems to me that basing theology on a translation designed solely to support that theology is both bad translation technique and bad theology .", "it has long been known that the kjv translation \u201cvirgin\u201d for the pregnant woman in isaiah 7 : 14 is inaccurate , and many modern translations opt instead for \u201cyoung woman\u201d or at least a footnote along those lines . the nrsv , for example , translates : \u201ctherefore the lord himself will give you a sign . look , the young woman is with child and shall bear a son , and shall name him immanuel . \u201d and though the niv 2011 translates \u201cvirgin , \u201d it also offers the footnote \u201cor young woman . \u201d", "\u201cteenager\u201d is the wrong translation , though . for one thing , in antiquity there were no teenagers as we think of them now , because people generally only lived until about age 40 . as i explain in and god said :", "accordingly , people didn\u2019t have time as they do now to spend their first decade as care - free children , then find themselves in their teen years , explore the world as twenty - somethings and settle down as thirty - somethings . they\u2019d be dead before they ever really started living .", "rather , people [ in antiquity ] were \u201cchildren\u201d and then they were \u201cadults . \u201d ( and then they were dead . )", "for another thing , \u201ca pregnant teenager\u201d in english carries connotations that the hebrew did not .

dusk . primarily searching at dawn , rooks will pick through garbage bags to obtain food . however , they have been seen foraging during the day . like all", "however , the breeding bird survey is not a good way to census rooks or any colonial species , and a coordinated count of nests is required . the last census in cheshire and wirral , in 1975 , found 346 rookeries containing 8 , 824 nests within the present recording boundaries , a substantial reduction from the previous count in 1944 - 45 which recorded 439 rookeries with a total of 15 , 866 nests . if the figure from the bbs were taken at face value , which is not advisable , the present total of around 5 , 000 pairs would represent a further major decline . some observers count nests annually , with figures included in the

"numerous anecdotes describe unusual bits of behaviour in this species , most of which can be interpreted as sensible ( and plausible ) responses to stimuli . burton ( 1978 ) described an instance in which a flying rook dove at a sparrowhawk , forcing the hawk to release a live starling it had captured , and another in which a breeding pair seemingly enlisted helpers to quickly re - build a nest a few hours after the original one had been destroyed by a person .", "subjects were seven adult rooks ( corvus frugilegus ) , 4 years of age at the time of testing ( one male and six females ) . these

within a few kilometres of the rookery . they are an extremely wary bird now and little is known of their habits .", "a noisy customer is the rook , as anyone living close by a rookery will testify .

males are slightly larger ) and there are no seasonal changes in plumage .", "for the 16 to 18 day incubation period the female rook covers the eggs unless she has to briefly leave the nest , in which case the male takes over this duty . after hatching , the female tends to the young exclusively while the male delivers food . this continues for approximately the first ten days until the young become more self - sufficient , at which point the female joins the male in food gathering . at around 32 to 33 days old the young rooks fledge and leave the nest , but roost in nearby trees to remain close to the parents . the young continue their relationship with the parents for several weeks until they become fully independent . even after reaching full maturity and independence , rooks generally remain members of their original rookery .", "rooks are familiar birds and ubiquitous . they are a bird of farmland , mainly feeding on soil invertebrates , especially earthworms , but they will scavenge on urban scraps and flock to landfill sites . rooks nest colonially in the tops of trees , the largest rookeries holding more than one hundred pairs , and are a veritable cacophony of noise during the breeding season . as was said in our first atlas , there is probably no tetrad in the county where rooks do not appear at some stage during the breeding season , often miles away from a rookery . some of these are one - year - old birds , too young to breed ; family parties similarly can be found far away from breeding sites . therefore , we follow the same convention as in our first atlas and map only the categories of breeding status code referring to nesting sites : confirmed ( ny , ne , on and un ) and probable ( b ) . this atlas shows a significant reduction in the number of tetrads occupied , from 266 confirmed and 12 probable twenty years ago to 205 confirmed and 4 probable now .", "this bird is very sociable , and nests communally in groups of trees known as ' rookeries ' ( 5 ) . communal roosts form in winter , consisting of birds from a number of breeding rookeries ( 6 ) . these roosts can be huge ; one in northwest scotland contained 65 , 000 rooks ( 6 ) . by february , the rooks return to their own rookery in order to start breeding ( 6 ) ; pairs defend a small area around their nests . during courtship , the male struts around , bowing , posturing and cawing ; he may then empty the contents of his food pouch into the female ' s mouth before mating takes place ( 5 ) . the nest is constructed of twigs , and three to five blue or grey - green eggs are laid towards the end of march . these are incubated by the female for up to 18 days ; whilst the female incubates the eggs and broods the chicks she is fed by the male ( 5 ) . after 40 days , the chicks are fully grown , but they remain dependent on their parents for food until they reach 60 days of age , and only become truly independent after around five months ( 5 ) .", "in the final set of experiments , we tested our subjects on a different tool use task , similar to the type of tool use used by new caledonian crows ( 10 , 11 ) . the task required the rooks to use a hook tool to retrieve an out of reach bucket containing a waxworm , located in a vertical clear tube ( fig . s9 ) . in the initial task , we provided a hook tool next to the apparatus . this consisted of a 16 cm long stick with an arrow shaped hook on one end ( fig . s9 a ) . subjects were required to insert the tool the correct way round ( hook end down ) , hook the tool onto the bucket handle and pull up ( rather than push down as previous experiments had required ) . all 4 subjects successfully solved this task ( success rate was 90 . 8 \u00b1 4 . 4 % of trials ) , with 3 of the 4 birds solving the task on trial 1 and the fourth bird solving the task from trial 2 ( movie s8 and fig . s10 a ) . all subjects inserted the hooked end into the tube significantly more often than the straight end ( glm ; tool end f 1 , 17 = 4 . 54 , p = 0 . 048 ; subject f 3 , 17 = 1 . 60 , p = 0 . 226 ) ; however , this required some learning ( block f 2 , 17 = 10 . 93 , p = 0 . 001 ) .", "the times and the sunday

trial - and - error learning . animals with certain expectations about how objects interact would be able to narrow the field of candidate causes substantially , because some causes are simply \u2018impossible\u2019 . here we present evidence that rooks hold such expectations and appear to possess perceptual understanding of support relations similar to that demonstrated by human babies ,

regularities . there is debate about whether any non - human animals appreciate unobservable forces ( povinelli 2000 ; emery & clayton 2009 ) ; however , there is evidence to suggest that some animals , including some species of corvid such as rooks and new caledonian crows , are able to appreciate causal regularities when solving technical problems ( seed et al . 2006 ; taylor et al . 2009 ) .", "the causal structure of the world may be represented by formulating expectations about what is possible and what is not , and so may be used to build more general rules about physical concepts , such as support . certain conditions are required for support , such as contact between an object and its supporting platform . only certain types of contact are appropriate for support and there must be a sufficient amount of contact between the surfaces . solving support - related problems may involve an understanding of means\u2013end relations or may be based on the specific perceptual features related to the spatial arrangement of object and support ( povinelli 2000 ) . the causal structure of the world cannot be perceived directly ( one cannot \u2018see\u2019 gravity ) and must be inferred from the spatio - temporal relationships between objects ( chappell 2006 ) ."]}

contracted by ach , and drc for snp ( 10 \u201313 \u201310 \u201310 m ) were evaluated . figure 2 reveals that the mesenteric artery exhibited dilation close to 70 % , whereas the dorsal artery only had dilation close to 40 % . no effect in dilation was found in aba and abe in the presence of snp . table 2 summarizes the pec 50 and rmax values obtained from analysis of the arterial curves . no differences were observed in the pec 50 in any of the arteries evaluated .", "our results show that all vessels studied ( aba , eba , ma and da ) exhibited a similar pattern of vasoconstriction mediated by ach as previously described by moraga and urriola - urriola ( 2014 , 2015 ) , in the same species . in addition , the same authors describe that this vasoconstriction was abolished by the use of atropine ( 10 \u20135 m ) . this evidence has been corroborated by other studies in trout , shark and eel ( nilsson and grove , 1974 ; pellegrino et al . , 2003 ; pellegrino et al . , 2002 ; small et al . , 1990 ) , supporting the presence of muscarinic receptors in fish vasculature .", "in mammalian vascular endothelium , several extracellular signals can stimulate nos , increasing the production of no , including ach , shear stress , etc . ( furchgott and zawadzki , 1980 ) . the nitric oxide produced by endothelium rapidly diffuses into the smooth muscle cell where it activates a soluble guanylyl cyclase ( sgc ) , which generates cyclic guanosine monophosphate ( cgmp ) that mediates vasodilation ( mondaca et al . , 1991 ) . a traditional approach to evaluate coupled ach - dilation is by the use of blocking agents that inhibit nos , decreasing no production , such as l - name or others ( buxton et al . , 1993 ) . the expected effect of blocking no production would be an increase in the basal tension , or an increase in the ach - mediated tension . therefore , evaluation of the ratio response ( rr ) should give values of rr > 1 if there is an increase in wall tension due to decreased production of no mediated by ach , and values of rr = 1 or rr < 1 if ach - nos - no - relaxation is uncoupled . indeed , studies show that there is an absence of muscarinic receptors coupled to the nos - no dilation pathway in fish ( donald and broughton , 2005 ) . in contrast , our results revealed a different effect when blocking with l - name in the arterial vessel . for example , in aba and abe there was a reduction in the ach - mediated vasoconstriction suggesting activation of other mediators that promote vasodilation , such as prostacyclin , h 2 s or co ( olson and villa , 1991 ; miller and vanhoutte , 1986 ; evans and gunderson , 1998b ; feng et al . , 2007 ; dombkowski et al . , 2008 ; jennings and donald . , 2010 ) . on the other hand , da did not modify arterial tension in the presence or absence of l - name , supporting the lack of ach - nos - no - relaxation coupling . in ma , we described an increase in ach - mediated vasoconstriction indicating the presence of a coupled ach - nos - no dilation . this evidence suggests that there is ach - nos - no - relaxation coupling in ma in both species , such as that shown in danio rerio in the same vascular area ( fritsche et al . , 2000 ; holmberg et al . , 2006 ) .", "in conclusion , our results suggest differences in the vascular function between i . conceptions and . g . laevifrons , could be explained by ontogenic , habitat and / or phylogenetic components furthermore , our results suggest that the ma expresses a vascular response when the ach - nos - no relaxation pathway is coupled , whereas the results in da , aba and eba suggest the presence of another mechanism . future studies are needed to further evaluate the vascular response in these species .", "we are grateful for the technical assistance of mr . hervis galleguillos and medical students carolina norero , daniela gonzalez , natalia soto and marietta nu\u00f1ez who collaborated in the experiments . this research was partially supported by project dgip 10301272 , universidad cat\u00f3lica del norte .", "beckman , j . s . and koppenol , w . h . , 1996 . nitric oxide , superoxide , and peroxynitrite : the good , the bad , and ugly . the american journal of physiology , vol . 271 , no . 5 pt 1 , pp . c1424 - c1437 . pmid : 8944624 .

in the 1950s , tests were carried out to introduce the species into various open stretches of water ( baltic sea ) or closed areas ( lakes ) . the farming of this species began in the former ussr in the 1970s . it was also at this time that the first individuals ( from parents that had originated in the river lena ) arrived in france , as a biological model in the context of a franco - soviet scientific cooperation programme . since then , the dispersal of the species has accelerated and , in addition to the russian federation ( its country of origin ) it is known to be present in europe ( belgium , france , italy , germany , hungary , poland , and spain ) , america ( united states , uruguay ) and asia ( china ) . it is highly likely that it is also present in other countries , at least in an experimental capacity . the species has also been the subject of hybridisation . few companies cover the entire production cycle and market all possible products . some only produce eggs and / or alevins ; others specialise in producing the fish for meat ; in many western countries , caviar has become the main purpose of rearing sturgeon .", "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 .", "this species can be found in all types of freshwater benthic habitats in large rivers and lakes . it spawns in strong - current habitats in the main stream of large and deep rivers on stone or gravel bottom . numerous spawning sites are located in lower and middle reaches of rivers . spawning peaks at beginning of june , continuing until end of july . spawning periodicity is 3 - 5 years in females and 2 - 3 years in males . the generation length of the species ranges from 25 - 30 years ( chen 2007 , ruban 2005 ) . in northeastern populations , females are twice the age of males ( ruban 2005 ) . the average age at maturity for females is 11 ( in lena river ) to 22 ( in lake baikal ) , and 9 - 19 years for males .", "currently used for traditional chinese medicine in china , japan , korea and singapore . in the northern parts of china , especially along the amur river , stocks of this species are farmed , the skin is used for making boots , gloves , hats and some kinds of decoration ( zhu pers . comm ) . aquaculture ( in outdoor indoor rearing tanks ) is independent of wild - caught material , since artificial reproduction is possible and f2 and higher generations are now used in aquaculture .", "to make use of this information , please check the < terms of use > .", "this site requires javascript to function correctly . please enable javascript in your browser and try again .", "acipenser baerii has 10 - 12 dorsal scutes , 32 - 62 lateral scutes , 7 - 16 ventral scutes , 30 - 56 dorsal fin rays and 17 - 33 anal fin rays .", "the back and sides are a uniform dark grey - brown to black , with the scutes and fin edges being very close in colour to the surrounding skin . the belly is whitish and may have some grey spots . the snout is long and pointed with a white tip that may be slightly upturned and rounded .", "the growth rate is dependent on food quality and temperature but when young they can grow like weeds , putting on 8 - 10 inches ( 20 - 25cm ) over a year , given the right food and environment . the growth rate slows down once the fish has reached about 3ft in length .", "sturgeons do not , as some people would have you believe , eat banket weed or ' clean the bottom of the pond ' . sturgeons need to be fed all year round , they need 2 - 3 % of their body weight of good quality food per day in the summer , less in the winter .", "stellatus ( acipenser stellatus ) and sterlets ( acipenser ruthenus ) have smaller throats ;
