Resource Publication 159 Washington, DC Selected Research Publication Series of the U.S . Fish and Wildlife Service, 1889-1985 Compiled by Thomas J. Cortese Barbara A. Groshek UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE Resource Publication 159 Washington, DC " 1987 Preface This bibliography provides a detailed record of publications in 10 selected Research and Development series produced by the U.S . Fish and Wildlife Service and its predecessor agencies in the Department of the Interior or the Department of Agriculture. Some of the series, published before the establishment of the Service, are primarily of historical interest. The more than 2,000 citations refer- enced demonstrate the variety, scope, and depth of research undertaken by the Service, and reflect the changing emphases in fish and wildlife research since 1889-from husbandry and predator control to sophisticated applications of new technologies . The annotated list of publications in each series is preceeded by a short introduc- tion that includes a brief history of the series. Listings are complete through December 1985, after which some series titles were changed . Author, species, and subject indexes are provided under a separate cover. Thomas J . Cortese Barbara A. Groshek Acknowledgments We are grateful to Marla Chenot and Mark Schaefer, Fort Collins, Colorado, for collecting information for this compilation ; to Joyce Mann, National Fisheries Center-Leetown, West Virginia, for preparing the Fish .Disease Leaflet portion; and to Dora Ibarra, National Ecology Center, Fort Collins, Colorado, for helping to prepare the FWS/OBS section for the now inactive Office of Biological Services.

Deltas and backwater-affected bottomlands are forming along tributary and mainstem confluences in reservoirs worldwide. Emergence of prograding deltas, along with related upstream hydrogeomorphic changes to river bottomlands in the backwater fluctua- tion zones of reservoirs, signals the development of new and dynamic riparian and wetland habitats. This study was conducted along the regulated Missouri River, USA, to examine delta-backwater formation and describe vegetation response to its development and dynam- ics. Our research focused specifically on the delta-backwater forming at the confluence of the White River tributary and Lake Francis Case reservoir. Objectives of the research were to: (1) describe and analyze the process of delta-backwater formation over space and time; (2) determine by field sampling and GIS mapping how vegetation has responded to devel- opment of the delta-backwater; and (3) compare the woody plant communities of the delta-backwater to those along free-flowing and regulated remnant river reaches.

Man has already virtually eliminated Hexagenia mayflies from portions of Lake Michigan's Green Bay, west­ ern Lake Erie, most of the Illinois River, and from segments of the Mississippi River. Mayflies are primitive insects which belong to the order Ephemeroptera. The adults, which have vestigial mouth parts, usually mate and die within 30 hours after they emerge from the fresh water in which they have lived as aquatic nymphs.

  • Polydactylus Opercularis (Gill, 1863) Fig
    Threadfins of the World 65 Literature: Feltes in Carpenter (2003). Remarks: Although Polydactylus oligodon, originally described from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Jamaica on the basis of 2 specimens, had long been regarded as a junior synonym of P. virginicus by many authors, Randall (1966) recognized the former as valid and designated a lectotype for the species. Randall (1966) noted differences between P. oligodon and P. virginicus in the shape of the posterior margin of the maxilla, and certain meristic characters (including numbers of lateral-line scales, pectoral-fin rays and anal-fin rays) and proportional measurements (including length of anal-fin base). In particular, the rounded shape of the posterior margin of the maxilla has been subsequently treated as a diagnostic character for P. oligodon (versus truncate to concave in P. virginicus) in many publications (e.g. Randall in Fischer, 1978; Cervigón in Cervigón et al., 1993; Randall, 1996). According to Feltes in Carpenter (2003) and confirmed by examination by the author, however, that character shows considerable individual variation and it is difficult to clearly distinguish between P. oligodon and P. virginicus on that basis. Although P. oligodon and P. virginicus are very similar to each other and distinction between the 2 species in recent literature is somewhat confused, P. oligodon can be distinguished from the latter by the higher counts of pored lateral-line scales [67 to 73 (mode 70) versus 54 to 63 (mode 58) in the latter]. Polydactylus opercularis (Gill, 1863) Fig. 112; Plate IVb Trichidion opercularis Gill, 1863: 168 (type locality: west coast of Central America, probably Cape San Lucas, Baja California, Mexico; holotype apparently lost, see Motomura, Kimura and Iwatsuki, 2002).
