THE IONIC ENVIRONMENT OF HEMOCYANIN IN LIMULUS POLYPHEMUS

The Biological Bulletin, 1976
1. Oxygen affinity of Limulus hemocyanin is lowered by the addition of Cl-and raised by the addition of H+. Therefore the oxygen transport system should be influenced by ionic changes in the blood, such as those which accompany the spring migrations into estuaries.2.

On the Embryology of Limulus Polyphemus

Journal of Cell Science, 1871
ABSTRACT The eggs on which the following observations were made were kindly sent me from New Jersey, by Rev. Samuel Lockwood, who has given an account of the mode of spawning, and other habits, in the ‘American Naturalist.’ They were laid on the 16th of May, but it was not until June 3rd that I was able to study them.

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...
