Contribución al conocimiento del Tachysurus barbus (Lacépède), bagre del Mar Argentino (Pisces, Ariidae).

A las costas bonaerenses llega en en verano ese típico representante de la fauna sudbrasileña, cuyo estudio consideramos de interés por ser el único bagre que en cierta cantidad suele ser capturado en Mar del Plata y Necochea cuando se realiza la pesca de especies de interés comercial. Damos la sinonimia, descripción y distribución de la especie y, como contribución a su conocimiento, el estudio anatómico del aparato digestivo.

A schematic analysis and discussion of species taken by otter trawl net by the research vessel Orion from July, 1965 to June 1966 in the Chesapeake Bay and major tributaries

From July 1965 to June 1964 the Natural Resources Institute's Research Vessel ORION took 16 minute tows with a forty (40) foot otter trawl net at 38 selected locations in Chesapeake Bay from the south of the Potomac River to Turkey Point at the head of the Bay and including some tributaries. Shallow and deep hauls were taken at most stations with depths ranging from 5 to 140 feet. A schematic summary of the 54 different species caught was compared with "Fishes of the Chesapeake Bay" by S. F. Hildebrand and W. C. Schroeder. Sixteen species including five not contained in the above references were selected for discussion. (PDF contains 21 pages)
