We need to work together to assure that these many resources are protected for the use and enjoyment of our future generations. The Lower Wisconsin State of the Basin Report was prepared in consultation with local units of government, other agencies, private citizens and other conservation organizations in the Lower Wisconsin River Basin. We hope that the goals, objectives and recommendations in this document will be useful in providing direction for future projects and work in the basin. It is also envisioned that this document, and the accompanying effort that went into its preparation, will serve as a springboard for a multitude of integrated resource management projects throughout the basin. It is hoped that this report will help you understand basic aspects of our natural resources, how they interact and what issues need more attention. This will help provide direction for those of us who work and recreate in the basin and provide guidance concerning policy issues that need to be addressed in the future. Sincerely, Andy Morton Rick Wojciak Lower Wisconsin River Basin Regional Forester Water Leader www.dnr.state.wi.us Quality Natural Resourcesiii Management www.wisconsin.gov Printed on Through Excellent Customer Service Recycled Paper ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Preparation of the Lower Wisconsin River State of the Basin Report represents a combined effort of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources with support from partnership groups and WDNR field and central office staff in the Divisions of Water, Land and Forestry. Many individuals contributed information, data analysis or review. We would like to recognize the major contributions of these individuals. Without their insights and input, this integrated plan would not have been possible.

L’inventaire odonatologique de trois oueds majeurs algériens : Kebir- Est, Seybouse et Rhumel, a permis l’identification de 40 espèces. Nos résultats révèlent la présence de Calopteryx exul, endémique maghrébin, dans l’oued Seybouse et semblent confirmer l’extinction de la population type dans l’oued Rhumel où l’espèce avait été découverte au XIXe siècle. Nos résultats indiquent également l’expansion de plusieurs espèces: Coenagrion caerulescens, Orthetrum nitidinerve, Trithemis kirbyi et Urothemis edwardsii dont la population relictuelle est en danger critique d’extinction. La mesure de diverses variables physicochimiques (altitude, température, conductivité, etc.) nous a permis d’explorer une possible co-structure entre les jeux de données faunistiques et de variables environnementales. L’analyse des données indique que la richesse spécifique est, selon l’oued, variablement correlée à l’hydropériode, à la conductivité et à la température de l’eau, suggérant son utilité dans l’évaluation de l’intégrité écologique des cours d’eau méditerranéens.

    Seasonal and Diel Movements and Habitat Use of Robust Redhorses in the Lower Savannah River. Georgia, and South Carolina

    Transactions of the American FisheriesSociety 135:1145-1155, 2006 [Article] © Copyright by the American Fisheries Society 2006 DO: 10.1577/705-230.1 Seasonal and Diel Movements and Habitat Use of Robust Redhorses in the Lower Savannah River, Georgia and South Carolina TIMOTHY B. GRABOWSKI*I Department of Biological Sciences, Clemson University, Clemson, South Carolina,29634-0326, USA J. JEFFERY ISELY U.S. Geological Survey, South Carolina Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, Clemson University, Clemson, South Carolina, 29634-0372, USA Abstract.-The robust redhorse Moxostonta robustum is a large riverine catostomid whose distribution is restricted to three Atlantic Slope drainages. Once presumed extinct, this species was rediscovered in 1991. Despite being the focus of conservation and recovery efforts, the robust redhorse's movements and habitat use are virtually unknown. We surgically implanted pulse-coded radio transmitters into 17 wild adults (460-690 mm total length) below the downstream-most dam on the Savannah River and into 2 fish above this dam. Individuals were located every 2 weeks from June 2002 to September 2003 and monthly thereafter to May 2005. Additionally, we located 5-10 individuals every 2 h over a 48-h period during each season. Study fish moved at least 24.7 ± 8.4 river kilometers (rkm; mean ± SE) per season. This movement was generally downstream except during spring. Some individuals moved downstream by as much as 195 rkm from their release sites. Seasonal migrations were correlated to seasonal changes in water temperature. Robust redhorses initiated spring upstream migrations when water temperature reached approximately 12'C. Our diel tracking suggests that robust redhorses occupy small reaches of river (- 1.0 rkm) and are mainly active diumally.

During the larval life, the optic lobe shows minor changes in its structure. It consists of 3 neuropiles interconnected through 2 chi- asmata. The development ofthe optic lobe is the result of the mitotic activity of the outer and inner optic anlages. This activity decreases duringthe last instar larva and in adult eventually stops. The anlages have completely disappeared the stage. INTRODUCTION LAVOIE et al. (1981) and LAVOIE-DORNIK et al. (1981) have shown that there was in the literature an impressive number of investigations on arthropod vision, and pointed out the importance of such research in insects in general in (MEINERZTHAGEN, 1973, 1975, 1976, 1977) and particularly such groups as Diptera (FROHLICH & MEINERTZHAGEN, 1982; HAUSEN et al., 1980; HORR1DGE & MEINERTZHAGEN, 1970; NICOLA MEINERTZHAGEN, 1982a, 1982b), Orthoptera (KIEN, 1974a, 1974b) and Hymenoptera (RIB1, 1975a, 1975b, 1976, 1977, 1979). They also emphasized that the work inthis field in Odonata was not as significant as in other groups in spite of an increasing interest ofwhich involved with in recent years, most has been Anisoptera (VIALLANES, 1884; ZAWARZIN, 1914; RICHARD & GAUDIN, 1959; MOUZE, 1972, 1974a, 1974b, 1975, 1978a, 1978b, 1979, 1980; MEINERTZHAGEN etal., 1980; ARMET-KIBEL et al, 1977; MEINERTZHAGEN & ARMET-KIBEL, 1982).

The data from a global navigation satellite system and inertial measurement unit were integrated to compare time loss and selected sub-techniques as a function of speed.

    Endangered Species

    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

In a documentary research, the final time in the 50-, 100- and 400-m freestyle events and MC (S11, S12 and S13) of national (n = 40) and international (n = 72) elite swimmers was analyzed. The analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman’s correlation with 95% confidence (P < 0.05) and Cohen’s d was calculated. There was a large effect of MC on the final time in the 50-m (P = 0.034, d = 1.55) for national ath- letes and in the 50-m (P = 0.001, d = 2.64), 100-m (P = 0.001, d = 3.01) and 400-m (P = 0.001, d = 2.88) for international athletes. S12 and S13 classes were faster compared to S11 class for all international events, but only in the 50-m for the national event (P < 0.05). It was found a strong negative relationship between the final time and MC for international athletes (Spearman’s Rho ≥ 0.78). There was a significant influence of MC on the performance of swimmers in freestyle races, especially in international swimmers.
