Occurrence of human-associated yeasts in bivalve shellfish from Long Island 

 Sound. Applied and Environmental Microbiology 33(2) : 370-378. 



Potentially pathogenic yeasts, especially Candida pavapsilosis , C. Tropicalis, 

 and Torulopsis glabrata, were found in Mercenavia meraenaria from Long Island 

 Sound. Some inconsistency and seasonal variation was noted. C. albicans 

 densities were greatest during colder months in more heavily polluted waters. 

 Quahog meat contained the greatest numbers of isolates but not necessarily 

 the most species. - J.L.M.

Ecological aspects of some molluscan species of Pleasant Bay, Orleans, 

 Massachusetts. Bull. Am. Malacol. Un . 40: 13. 



Meraenaria mercenaria is one of the major species harvested from the area. 

 Horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus , has been accused wrongly of being a 

 major shellfish predator. It preys only occasionally on young Meroenaria 

 and Mya. Polinices and Lunatia are more serious predators and Vvosalpinx 

 oinerea is even more abundant and predacious. The Bay is largely undeveloped 

 and unpolluted. The environment is unique, with vast protected salt marshes 

 and uniform environment except for seasonal temp fluctuations. Given proper 

 study and management the yield of living resources could be greatly in- 

 creased. It would be advisable to declare the Bay a natural resource area 

 under Coastal Zone Management regulations, to permit commercial and recrea- 

 tional development on and near the water. - J.L.M.

A comprehensive shellfish management program in the Town of I slip, N.Y. in- 

 cludes research on harvest, catch per unit of effort, and a hard clam popu- 

 lation survey. Annual stocking programs include hard clam transplants, 

 spawner transplants, and mariculture. No data are given. - J.L.M.

Shellfish management in the Town of Islip. In Proc. Symp. Mariculture in 

 N.Y. State. N.Y. Sea Grant Inst, and Cornell Univ. NYSGI-RP-79-01 : 13-18. 



Surveys show that the average density of hard clams is 67 bu per acre in 

 open waters, 122 bu/acre in closed waters. For 1976 it was estimated that 

 524,000 bu were harvested commercially, and 21,000 bu by residents. 

 Transplants from closed to open waters are an important part of the 

 program. At least one area each year is located along the north shore of
