“…Exoglossum maxillingua is a relatively specialized bottom feeder, but is apparently able to shift to other food resources when its preferred food is unavailable. Several studies have been conducted on its diet in New York and Pennsylvania (Breder and Crawford 1922;Haase andHaase 1975: Johnson 1981;Johnson and Johnson 1982;Pappantoniou 1983;Pappantoniou et al 1984a,b). The studies indicated that Exoglossum maxillingua consumes a variety of aquatic invertebrates, but chironomids, trichopteran larvae, and oligochaetes are the most important items.…”

The Cutlips Minnow, Exoglossum maxillingua, is a stout bodied minnow distinguished from all other members of the family Cyprinidae in North America by its unique trilobed lower jaw. It is common in many upland regions of the Atlantic coast drainage of northeastern North America. It is rare, and there is evidence that populations have declined from levels in the 1930s in Ontario. It is more widespread in Québec where it has been found in numerous river systems from 1935 to 1989. Since 1977, there has been a significant decrease in the number of surveys in the limited area occupied by this species in Canada. Surveys might have provided more information on present status. There is, however, evidence of low and/or declining numbers in some river systems.Le bec-de-lievre, Exoglossum maxillingua, est un méné au corps trapu qui se distingue de tous les autres membres de la famille Cyprinidae en Amérique du Nord par sa machoire inférieure trilobée. Il est répandu dans de nombreuses régions hautes du bassin versant de ]'Atlantique dans le nord-est de l'Amérique du Nord. On le rencontre rarement en Ontario, ou sa population enregistre une baisse par rapport aux chiffres des années 1930. Il est plus répandu au Québec ow I'on a relevé sa présence dans nombre de réseaux fluviaux de 1935 a 1989. Depuis 1977, le nombre d'études effectuées dans la région restreinte occupée par cette espéce au Canada a diminué de fagon marquée. Si tel n'avait pas été le cas, nous disposerions probablement de plus de données sur la situation actuelle de l'espéce. I] semblerait toutefois que sa population est faible ou a la baisse dans certains réseaux.

Organophosphorous compounds may cause two distinct types of toxicity: acute cholinergic toxicity and organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy (OPIDP). The ability of a compound to cause OPIDP is assessed as described by administering the compound to hens and screening the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves for neuropathy target esterase activity to detect OPIDP and acetylcholinesterase activity to rule out the acute toxicity. This assay can also be used as part of a screen for protective agents.
