Fresh and Brackish-Water Ostracoda on Mt. Desert Island
Dobbin CN. 1941. Fresh and Brackish-Water Ostracoda on Mt. Desert Island. Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory Bulletin. June 15th to September 15th:33
'A brief summary of the preliminary survey' on collections of Ostracoda in 'numerous fresh-water and brackish ponds'. Twenty species have been found so far, ten of which belong in the family Cytheridae, ten in the family Cypridae. Of the former group three species were found in fresh-water ponds, one each in Long Pond, lower Breakneck Pond and upper Breakneck Pond. Five different species came from a brackish pond somewhat north of Somesville. Two others came from a small brackish pool that occurred in the very spongy turf only a few feet away from the larger pond. /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /MOUNT DESERT ISLAND/Long Pond/Breakneck Ponds/Somes Pond/Beaver Pond/Ripple Pond/Long Pond/Lower Hadlock Pond/ **Note: Article not available online**
