Distribution patterns of individually identifiable West Indian manatees (Trichechus manatus) in Florida
Photographs of distinctively scarred manatees (Trichechus manatus) were taken at aggregation sites throughout Florida and assembled into a catalog for identifying individuals. Resightings of known manatees in different years or at different locations enabled us to document site fidelity and long-distance movements. Of the 891 individuals included in the catalog as of August 1986, 470 (53%) were re

The influence of ambient salinity on routine metabolism in the teleost Cyprinodon variegatus Lacepède
Routine metabolism of the euryhaline cyprinodontid Cyprinodon variegatus Lacepede was measured at a series of ambient salinities ranging from fresh water through 100‰. Fish used had been sequentially acclimated to the test salinities (ambient temperature of 20±1° C and a 12: 12 L: D schedule).
Routine metabolic rates were highest at ambient salinities from 15 to 50‰. Metabolism was somewhat lower
