Distance matters: a look at crime trip distances in Flanders [PDF]
Most journey-to-crime studies are flawed in two ways: they predominantly rely on local police data and although a number of studies hint at the presence of substantially longer crime trips than commonly reported, long trips are deliberately removed from

Thirty Years of the Biology of Spermatozoa: The Rise and Future of an Evolutionary Paradigm
A sperm bundle taken from the seminal vescicles of the dung beetle, Onthophagus taurus. Image credit: Leigh W. Simmons. ABSTRACT In the early 1970s, Geoff Parker recognised that because females frequently mate with multiple males, competition for fertilizations will impose significant sexual selection on males and their ejaculates.

Aging of Common Snook Centropomus undecimalis Larvae Using Sagittal Daily Growth Rings
In this note, we validate daily aging methodology for common snook larvae with data from 37 laboratory-reared specimens ranging in age from 3 to 26 days after hatching. Specimens were obtained from four spawns, occurring between 30 June and 21 September 1984.

Improving Larval Culture and Rearing Techniques on Common Snook (Centropomus undecimalis)
The common snook or Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch) is a diadromus, stenothermic, euryhaline, estuarine-dependent species found in the tropical and sub-tropical western Atlantic Ocean from about 34° N to about 25° S latitude (Howells et al., 1990).

INDUCED SPAWNING OF THE COMMON SNOOK, Centropomus undecimalis, IN CAPTIVITY USING GnRH-a IMPLANTS
Culture of C. undecimalis shows great potential as this species tolerates handling and adapts easily to captivity. However, the difficulty in achieving spawning in captivity is a major obstacle for the development of commercial scale farming.
