“…The life cycle of Crepidostomum cornutum was elucidated by Ameel (1937) who showed that both mother and daughter rediae occur in the freshwater bivalve Sphaerium sp. Free swimming cercariae released from the bivalve penetrates the host and encyst in the cardiac region, hepatopancreas and muscles of the cephalothorax of the crayfish host (Ameel, 1937;Sogandares-Bernal, 1965).…”

“…Free swimming cercariae released from the bivalve penetrates the host and encyst in the cardiac region, hepatopancreas and muscles of the cephalothorax of the crayfish host (Ameel, 1937;Sogandares-Bernal, 1965). Time from penetration to encystment is <2 h with metacercariae in crayfish attaining full size in 6-8 weeks (Ameel, 1937). Progenesis can occur in C. cornutum in crayfish, although the mechanisms for this are not understood (Sogandares-Bernal, 1965).…”

“…Since crayfish, rather than mayflies, serve as the second intermediate host for C_. cornutum (Hopkins, 1934;Ameel, 1937;Cheng, 1957;and Cheng and James, 1960b) Crepidostomtm comutum infections were given by Neave (1932) in Hexagenia limbata and H. rigida and by Hunt (1953) in H, limbata. Neither author was certain of the specific identification and both apparently lacked additional life cycle information.…”

“…Since crayfish, rather than mayflies, serve as the second intermediate host for C_. cornutum (Hopkins, 1934;Ameel, 1937;Cheng, 1957;and Cheng and James, 1960b), serious consideration was not given to this parasite. It should be mentioned, however, that at 125 least three authors have reported £, comutum from Hexagenla naiads.…”

12 volts and less than 2 amperes were obtained. The pulsator, therefore, provided both increased voltage and increased amperage. Many of the fish, particularly the smaller ones, were collected by the author with a 16-foot common-sense seine. Collections were made in various locations in Pool 19 and the tailwaters but the majority of fish were taken within 12 miles of the dam on the Illinois side of the river. Most collections were made either during the morning hours or, less commonly, in the evening before and after darkness. A few fish were obtained with collapsible wire fish traps of the type recommended by Dr. Kenneth D. Carlander, (Anonymous, 1954). These traps were constructed out of 0.5-inch mesh hardware cloth and measured 40 by 24 by 24 inches. In addition, two 24 by 36-inch wings formed a throat with an inside opening of approximately 3 inches. In nearly all instances the traps were placed in the tailwaters immediately below old Lock 19 and checked each morning and evening. The lock gate at Keokuk provided significant numbers of fish. In addition, limited numbers were obtained by angling and a few were captured in naiad traps. Bailey (1956), Trautman (1957), and Hubbs and Lagler (1958) were used to identify the fish encountered in this study. Methods of Stomach Content Analysis As soon as possible after collection the stomachs of the larger fish were removed and preserved in 10 percent formalin. In the case of native
