Plasma osmotic, Na+ and Cl− regulation under euryhaline conditions in Cyprinodon variegatus lacépède

The ontogeny of salinity tolerance in the American shad, <I>Alosa sapidissima</I>

“…This change in the ion ratio was caused by a decrease in plasma chloride levels while the plasma sodium levels remained unperturbed. Such increases in plasma sodium/chloride ratio have been interpreted as indicating that sodium is more tightly regulated than chloride (Nordlie 1987). The higher ratio is similar to that calculated for adult shad in fresh water from the data of Leggett and O'Boyle (1976) (sodium/chloride = 1.40).…”

Effects of Temperature and Salinity on Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) Toxicity in Larval Estuarine Organisms

“…Lower salinity levels have been shown to inhibit shell growth rate, reduce swimming velocity, prevent metamorphosis, and reduce clearance rate [ 47 ]. Sheepshead minnows are also very tolerant of low salinity and high temperatures [ 26 , 48 ]. Mysids can tolerate salinity ranges from 2 to 33 ppt and temperatures up to 34 °C [ 49 , 50 ].…”

Response of Mysid Shrimp (Mysidopsis Bahia), Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon Variegatus), and Inland Silverside Minnow (Menidia Beryllina) to Changes in Artificial Seawater Salinity

“…The sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus) is a euryhaline species and may form populations in inland saline lakes [5]. Sheepshead minnows can acclimate to salinities ranging from 0.1 to 149‰ [6,7]. The inland silverside minnow (Menidia beryllina) generally occurs at salinities ranging from 12 to 30‰ [5].…”
