To recover egg masses laid by snails, glasses were internally covered with cellophane sheets as suggested by Olivier and Haskins (1960) and adapted by Oliveira-Filho et al. (2009a,b).
Sample text:```Dead individuals were removed, surface sterilized with 5.2% sodium hypochlorite, rinsed twice with sterile water, and plated on potato dextrose agar to confirm that mortality was due to infection by M. anisopliae (Rosengaus et al. 1998).```
Sample intent: background
Sample text:```The lower abundance of fish at impacted reaches detected in our study agrees with the results of other authors, who in some cases found four times higher biomass at control reaches (Kube cka et al. 1997; Almod ovar & Nicola 1999).```
Sample intent: result

Sample text:```McCartney and Lessios (2004) have suggested that E. lucunter, because it is found in high point population densities almost exclusively in a high energy narrow intertidal zone, is likely to spawn under conditions of high density of mixed sperm.```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```It is also in agreement with those of Stansley et al. (1997) who obtained high mortality in R. palustris tadpoles, exposed from the egg stage for 10 days to a total mean lead concentration of 1.670 and 0.944 mg Pb/l.```

Sample text:```Artificial reefs made of various materials also provide a large shaded surface that A. coerulea planulae prefer (Holst & Jarms, 2007; Hoover & Purcell, 2009; Duarte et al., 2012).```

Sample text:```Similar results were obtained for several other plant species in previous studies (peanut, common bean, chestnut, black gram) (Raina et al. 2001; Marotti et al. 2007; Goulao et al. 2001, Souframanien and Gopalakrishna 2004).```
