Addressing the ongoing decline of Pacific Lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus across its range along the west coast
of North America requires an understanding of all life history phases. Currently, spawning surveys (redd counts)
are a common tool used to monitor returning adult salmonids, but the methods are in their infancy for...
The importance of hormone reservoirs in mature teleost eggs is
unknown. To elucidate the effects of hormones on embryonic development,
steelhead trout eggs, Oncorhynchus mykiss, were immersed in either cortisol,
testosterone, or thyroxine at two different stages of development. Elevated

Methods and utility of age determination of yellowtail rockfish
(Sebastes flavidus), canary rockfish (Sebastes pinniger), and black
rockfish (Sebastes melanops) collected off Oregon during 1972 to
1975 are discussed. Structures compared on the basis of the reproducibility
of counts of annuli (consistency of readings) were the anal fin
pterygiophore, opercle,...
