The Lucinacea (Eulamellibranchia) have been studied and particular attention has paid to the feeding, respiratory cleansing currents their relation morphology habits of group. comprise three families, Ungulinidae, Thyasiridae Lucinidae, living specimens thirteen species were studied; namely, Diplodonta rotundata, D. punctata, aspera (Ungulinidae); Thyasira Jlexuosa (Thyasiridae); Lucina pennsylvanica, L. chrysostoma. Codakia orbicularis, C. orbiculata, costata, Loripes lucinalis, Phacoides...
The age of a deep-sea clam, Tindaria callistiformis, from 3803 m depth has been determined by 228Ra (6.7 year half-life) chronology separated size fractions captured population. A length 8.4 mm is attained in about 100 years. Shells this fraction show regularly spaced bands, indicating that the growth feature may be an annual one.
The deep sea prawn, Pandalus borealis Krayer, is fished extensively in Norwegian, Swedish and Greenland waters, some 4000 metric tons being caught annually, having a value of about £800,000. Its biology has been investigated by various workers these countries. Comprehensive accounts have given Wollebaek (1903), Hjort & Ruud (1938), Rasmussen (1953)and Horsted Smidt (1956). Despite this, relatively few populations sampled at regular intervals throughout year. In high latitudes where much...
This study was undertaken to investigate the relationship between simulator fidelity and training effectiveness. Two aspects of were manipulated, namely, degree which a “looked like” actual equipment (physical fidelity), extent it “acted real (functional fidelity). A transfer design used assess learning. Performance on an electromechanical troubleshooting task correlated with number individual difference variables. Results indicated that physical functional interdependent temporal measures...
This paper lists the species and distribution of bivalves collected from deep-sea expeditions undertaken by American, British French research vessels in Atlantic over a period twelve years. Samples were taken eleven basins, analysis is resticted to samples with epibenthic sled depths ranging 500 m 5,000 m. A preliminary made changing depth discussion as why some genera families are either restricted or more dominant deep sea compared those found at shelf-sea depths. It provides baseline...
This study forms part of a larger on the ecology and functional morphology deep sea bivalves Atlantic. Eighteen living species family Verticordiidae are described, which eight new species. The descriptions include shell detailed analysis anatomy, particular attention being paid to mantle, gills alimentary canal. only taken in water form small but persistant fraction bivalve fauna. They have that is intermediate between order Anomalodesmacea septibranch Poromyidae Cuspidariidae, this shows...
In a series of experiments to investigate feeding and excretion in bivalves, Mya arenaria, Venus striatula, Ostrea edulis Cuspidaria cuspidata were fed with suspensions Phaeodactylum labelled 32 P. Although there is considerable variation the filtering rates, specimens O. found have an average rate 6·6 ml./h/mg dry body tissue. This figure more than six times greater that recorded for M. arenaria V. striatula . No filtration was carnivore C.
Since November 1954, the natant epifauna in depths greater than 20 fm. off Northumberland coast has been sampled at a number of stations with object obtaining information on its constitution and fluctuations. The survey limited to those species caught net f in. mesh. Seasonal yearly fluctuations this fauna must have considerable effect inshore fisheries, for these animals form an important part food marketable fish, yet, never beensubject detailed analysis over years. Samples taken as...
In this book, he says: "The doctrine of concealing coloration as an explanation almost every kind in the animal kingdom has received its widest application... .In extreme form stated by these gentlemen, seems to me be pushed such a fantastic and include wild absurdities call for application common sense thereto.The Messrs. Thayer state their position most positive form.Fundamentally it is that, first place, all or practically animals are concealingly colored, next that while patterns cases...
