Primary production of the plankton community in the estuarine 

 waters near Sapelo Island, Georgia, was estimated by oxygen evolu- 

 tion in light and dark bottles at several locations.

 flagellate bloom. Limnology and Oceanography 2:62-69. 



In late February and early March 1955, a small, dense concentra- 

 tion of a dinoflagellate of the genus Gymnodinium was observed in 

 the extreme upper end of the Duplin River at Sapelo Island, Geor- 

 gia. This river is estuarine and receives practically no fresh- 

 water runoff from land.

 34:3755-B.) 



The energy budget, food habits and population dynamics of Uca 

 pugnax are studied in the Georgia salt marshes near Sapelo Island. 

 Uca pugnax , a detritivore, serves as an important link in the 

 highly productive detrital salt marsh energy budget.
