FRY University of Toronto THE OSMOREGULATORY METABOLISM OF THE STARRY FLOUNDER, PLATICHTYS STELLATUS ABSTRACT Energy demands for osmotic regulation and the possible osmoregulatory role of the thyroid gland were investigated in the euryhaline starry flounder, Platichthys stellatus. Using a melt• ing-point technique, it was established that flounder could regulate body fluid concentration independent of widely divergent environ• mental salinities. Small flounder experienced more rapid disturb• ances of body fluid concentration than large flounder after abrupt salinity alterations. The standard metabolic rate of flounder adapted to fresh water was consistently and significantly less than that of marine flounder. In supernormal salinities standard metabolic rate was significantly greater than in normal sea water.

The arduous task of beach seining all year around was shared by many members of the California State Fisheries Laboratory staff; we are particularly grateful to Mr. Parke H. Young and Mr. John L. Baxter for their willing and continued help throughout the years. Mr. Frederick B. Hagerman was project leader for the first year of the investigation, until his recall into the Air Force, and he gave the project an excellent start. Many others gave help and advice, notably Mr. John E. Fitch, Mr. Phil M. Roedel, Mr. David C. Joseph, and Dr. F. N. Clark of this laboratory. Dr. Carl L. Hubbs of Scripps Institution of Oceanography at La Jolla gave valuable advice, and we are indebted to the late Mr. Conrad Limbaugh of the same institution for accounts of his observations on surf fishes, and for SCUBA diving instructions. The project was fortunate in securing able seasonal help, particularly from Mr.

Environmental DNA Reveals the Fine-Grained and Hierarchical
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Environmental DNA reveals the fne‑grained and hierarchical spatial structure of kelp forest fsh communities Thomas Lamy 1,2*, Kathleen J. Pitz 3, Francisco P. Chavez3, Christie E. Yorke1 & Robert J. Miller1 Biodiversity is changing at an accelerating rate at both local and regional scales. Beta diversity, which quantifes species turnover between these two scales, is emerging as a key driver of ecosystem function that can inform spatial conservation. Yet measuring biodiversity remains a major challenge, especially in aquatic ecosystems. Decoding environmental DNA (eDNA) left behind by organisms ofers the possibility of detecting species sans direct observation, a Rosetta Stone for biodiversity. While eDNA has proven useful to illuminate diversity in aquatic ecosystems, its utility for measuring beta diversity over spatial scales small enough to be relevant to conservation purposes is poorly known. Here we tested how eDNA performs relative to underwater visual census (UVC) to evaluate beta diversity of marine communities. We paired UVC with 12S eDNA metabarcoding and used a spatially structured hierarchical sampling design to assess key spatial metrics of fsh communities on temperate rocky reefs in southern California. eDNA provided a more‑detailed picture of the main sources of spatial variation in both taxonomic richness and community turnover, which primarily arose due to strong species fltering within and among rocky reefs. As expected, eDNA detected more taxa at the regional scale (69 vs. 38) which accumulated quickly with space and plateaued at only ~ 11 samples. Conversely, the discovery rate of new taxa was slower with no sign of saturation for UVC.

SARA is the Act developed by the federal government as a key contribution to the common national effort to protect and conserve species at risk in Canada. SARA came into force in 2003, and one of its purposes is “to manage species of special concern to prevent them from becoming endangered or threatened.” What is a species of special concern? Under SARA, a species of special concern is a wildlife species that could become threatened or endangered because of a combination of biological characteristics and identified threats. Species of special concern are included in the SARA List of Wildlife Species at Risk. What is a management plan? Under SARA, a management plan is an action-oriented planning document that identifies the conservation activities and land use measures needed to ensure, at a minimum, that a species of special concern does not become threatened or endangered. For many species, the ultimate aim of the management plan will be to alleviate human threats and remove the species from the List of Wildlife Species at Risk.

Status of the Pacific Herring, Clupea Harengus Pallasii, Resource in California 1972 to 1980
STATE OF CALIFORNIA THE RESOURCES AGENCY DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME FISH BULLETIN 171 Status of The Pacific Herring, Clupea Harengus Pallasii, Resource In Califor- nia 1972 to 1980 by Jerome D. Spratt 1981 1 ABSTRACT The California Department of Fish and Game has conducted periodic studies on Pacific herring since 1953. This re- port concentrates on the period from 1972 through 1980 during which the herring fishery underwent a dramatic re- surgence due to the opening of a lucrative market for herring roe in Japan. The spawning biomass of Pacific herring was estimated by determining numbers of eggs spawned and using pre- viously derived estimates of eggs per gram of fish to convert this figure to short tons of herring. Spawning biomass estimates for Tomales Bay ranged from 4,728 tons in the 1974–75 season to 22,163 tons in the 1977–78 season. Es- timates for San Francisco Bay ranged from 6,179 tons in 1973–74 season to 52,869 tons in the 1979–80 season. Sampling the roe fishery catch in Tomales and San Francisco Bays revealed that age 2 and 3 herring dominated the round haul fishery, and ages 5 and 6 dominated the gill net fishery. Gill nets consistently caught larger herring and a higher percentage of females than round haul nets. Comparison of length at age of herring from Tomales and San Francisco Bays revealed a statistical difference in growth rates between populations of the two bays. Tomales Bay herring are larger at a given age than San Francisco Bay herring. Spawning time was related to the tidal cycle in San Francisco Bay.

Periodic Status Review for the Steller Sea Lion
STATE OF WASHINGTON January 2015 Periodic Status Review for the Steller Sea Lion Gary J. Wiles The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife maintains a list of endangered, threatened, and sensitive species (Washington Administrative Codes 232-12-014 and 232-12-011, Appendix E). In 1990, the Washington Wildlife Commission adopted listing procedures developed by a group of citizens, interest groups, and state and federal agencies (Washington Administrative Code 232-12-297, Appendix A). The procedures include how species listings will be initiated, criteria for listing and delisting, a requirement for public review, the development of recovery or management plans, and the periodic review of listed species. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife is directed to conduct reviews of each endangered, threatened, or sensitive wildlife species at least every five years after the date of its listing. The reviews are designed to include an update of the species status report to determine whether the status of the species warrants its current listing status or deserves reclassification. The agency notifies the general public and specific parties who have expressed their interest to the Department of the periodic status review at least one year prior to the five-year period so that they may submit new scientific data to be included in the review. The agency notifies the public of its recommendation at least 30 days prior to presenting the findings to the Fish and Wildlife Commission. In addition, if the agency determines that new information suggests that the classification of a species should be changed from its present state, the agency prepares documents to determine the environmental consequences of adopting the recommendations pursuant to requirements of the State Environmental Policy Act.
