B. MORTON, SECRETARY Nathaniel P. Reed, Assistant Secretary for Fish and Wildlife and Parks Fish and Wildlife Service Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, Spencer H. Smith, Director BIRDS IMPORTED INTO THE UNITED STATES IN 1970 By Roger B. Clapp and Richard C. Banks Bird and Mammal Laboratories Division of Wildlife Research Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife Special Scientific Report —Wildlife No. 164 Washington, D.C. February 1973 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D.C. 20402-Price $1.25 domestic postpaid, or $1 GPO Bookstore Stock Number 2410-00345 ABSTRACT Birds imported into the United States in 1970 are tabulated by species and the numbers are compared to those for 1968 and 1969. The accuracy of this report is believed to be substantially greater than for the previous years. The number of birds imported in 1970 increased by about 45 percent over 1969, but much of that increase results from more extensive declarations of domestic canaries. Importation of birds other than canaries increased by about 11 percent, with more than half of that increase accounted for by psittacine birds. More than 937,000 individuals of 745 species were imported in 1970. This report tallies imported birds by the country of origin. Eleven nations account for over 95 percent of all birds imported.

Both series were founded by Dr. Bryant Walker, Mr. Bradshaw H. Swales, and Dr. W.W. Newcomb. Occasionally thc Museum publishes contributions outside of these series; beginning in 1990 thcsc arc titled Special Publications and arc numbered. All submitted manuscripts to any of the Museum's publications receive external review. The Occasional Papers, begun in 1913, serve as a medium for original studies based principally upon the collections in the Museum. They arc issued separately. When a sufficient number of pages has been printed to make a volume, a title page, table of contents, and an index are supplied to libraries and individuals on the mailing list for the series. The Miscellaneotls Pt~hlication.~,initiated in 1916, include monographic studies, papers on field and museum techniques, and other contributions not within the scope of the Occasional Papers, and are published separately. It is not intended that they be grouped into volurnes. Each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents.

  • Seasonal Hydrology Shifts Production Sources Supporting Fishes in Rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin
    1342 ARTICLE Seasonal hydrology shifts production sources supporting fishes in rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin Chouly Ou and Kirk O. Winemiller Abstract: Seasonal hydrology is assumed to be an important reason why the Lower Mekong Basin supports highly productive and biodiverse inland fisheries. We used C and N stable isotope ratios of tissue samples to estimate primary production sources supporting fish biomass in the Mekong and three large tributaries in Cambodia. We used a Bayesian mixing model to estimate relative contributions of four alternative production sources — seston, benthic algae, riparian grasses, and riparian macro- phytes. There was little seasonal variation in isotopic signatures of riparian plants, but benthic algae and seston showed large seasonal shifts in carbon ratios. Seston and benthic algae were the most important production sources supporting fish biomass overall during the dry season, and riparian vegetation was the most important source during the wet season. Sources contributed differentially to biomass of trophic and habitat guilds, especially during the dry season. A dam on the upper Sesan River has changed hydrology, channel geomorphology, and other factors and, compared with the other three rivers, its fish biomass appears to derive from algae to a greater extent. Résumé : L’hydrologie saisonnière est présumée être une importante raison expliquant le fait que le bassin du cours inférieur du fleuve Mékong supporte des pêches continentales très productives et d’une grande biodiversité. Nous avons utilisé les rapports d’isotopes stables du C et du N d’échantillons de tissus pour estimer les sources de production primaire qui supportent la biomasse de poissons dans le Mékong et trois grands affluents au Cambodge.
