Avoidance reaction of yolk-sac larvae of the inland silverside Menidia beryllina (Atherinidae) to hypoxia

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT Larvae of the inland silverside Menidia beryllina (Atherinidae) were observed in a chamber with two horizontal water layers to study their aversive response to hypoxia. When larvae descended from an upper normoxic layer into a lower hypoxic layer, they displayed a characteristic avoidance reaction consisting of a burst of fast ...

Molecular and morphological divergence in the inland silverside (Menidia beryllina) along a freshwater-estuarine interface

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2011
Populations that vary across ecological gradients or that have invaded novel habitats are important to elucidate the association between adaptive divergence and gene flow, factors that may play an important role in speciation of silverside fishes. The inland silverside, Menidia beryllina, is an ideal organism for this kind of research, displaying a ...

Effects of photoperiod and temperature on the regulation of the onset of maturation in the estuarine fish Menidia beryllina (Cope) (Atherinidae)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1999
Abstract Menidia beryllina (Cope) is an annual species that inhabits coastal estuaries along the east coast of the United States from Cape Cod to the Gulf of Mexico. In Rhode Island, USA, its peak spawning time and the duration of the spawning vary among years and estuaries.

Chronic Toxicity of Unweathered and Weathered Macondo Oils to Mysid Shrimp (Americamysis bahia) and Inland Silversides (Menidia beryllina)

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2016
Chronic, 21-28-day toxicity tests of Macondo source (Massachusetts, or MASS) and weathered Slick A (CTC) and Slick B (Juniper) oils field collected during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon (DWH) Incident in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) were conducted using standardized procedures.

Effects of Fractions from Biodegraded Alaska North Slope Crude Oil on Embryonic Inland Silversides, Menidia beryllina

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2002
Embryonic inland silversides, Meinida beryllina, were exposed to neutral, water-soluble fractions (WSFs) resulting from microbial degradation of artificially weathered Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil. Three individual microbes obtained from Prince William Sound, Alaska, and designated Phe#6 (enriched on phenanthrene), Hexaco#2 (enriched on the ...

Responses of embryonic and larval inland silversides, Menidia beryllina, to No. 2 Fuel oil and oil dispersants in seawater

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1995
Embryonic inland silversides, Menidia beryllina, in the early blastula stage were exposed to the water-soluble fraction (WSF) of No. 2 Fuel oil and the oil dispersants Corexit 7664® and 9527®, singly and in combination. An ordinal ranking system was used to score observed daily craniofacial, cardiovascular, and skeletal responses in control embryos and

Effects of food density and temperature on feeding and growth of young inland silversides (Menidia beryllina)

Journal of Fish Biology, 1993
Food consumption and growth rates of 7–28‐day‐old Menidia beryllina were measured in response to natural ranges of temperature and prey availability. Feeding level, temperature and age all had significant effects on growth rate, although the effect of feeding level explained most of the variance.

Influence of salinity and organic carbon on the chronic toxicity of silver to mysids (Americamysis bahia) and silversides (Menidia beryllina)

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2006
AbstractTests were conducted with mysids (Americamysis bahia) and silversides (Menidia beryllina) to evaluate the influence of salinity and organic carbon on the chronic toxicity of silver. During 7- and 28-d tests conducted at 10, 20, and 30‰ salinity, higher concentrations of dissolved silver generally were required to cause a chronic effect as the ...

Evaluation of Bleached Kraft Mill Process Water Using Microtox®, Ceriodaphnia dubia, and Menidia beryllina Toxicity Tests

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1997
To determine whether a 7- to 10-d embryo toxicity/teratogenicity test with the inland silverside fish, Menidia beryllina, is a sensitive indicator for evaluation of bleached kraft mill effluents, we compared this test with the Microtox(R) 15-min acute toxicity test and the Ceriodaphnia dubia 7-d chronic toxicity test.
