Pink adductors are found in Teredo and Venus, possibly from presence of 

 hemoglobin (Fox 1953). Smooth muscles of Mercenaria (white parts), when 

 disintegrated mechanically, release paramyosin elements in the form of 

 long, flat ribbons (Elliott et al. 1957). Thus, the thick filaments must 

 contain several paramyosin ribbons stacked together with surfaces apposed.

Venus mercenaria is listed as abundant. According to Jacot (1920) , 

 abstracted elsewhere in this bibliography, the initial J. was in error. 

 The correct name was Eber Ward Hubbard. - J.L.M.

The new Environmental Systems Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass., under direction 

 of John Ryther, is discussed: setting of requirements, approaches adopted, 

 design problems, experiences to date, and the unique physical plant. The 

 essence of the project is a marine phytoplankton-bivalve mollusk food chain 

 using Mercenaria mercenaria and other bivalves. It includes a much more 

 complex food web, including a flatfish, lobster, abalone, benthic worms, and 

 seaweeds as secondary components. - J.L.M.

Mytilicola porrecta n. sp. (Copepoda: Cyclopoida) from the intestine of 

 marine pelecypods. J. Parasitol. 40(2): 186-194. 



In June 1947 both sexes of a new species of Mytilicola were taken from 

 intestines of ribbed mussel, recurved mussel, and Venus mercenaria mercenaria 

 Linne in marshes and bayous behind Grand Isle and Grand Terre, Barataria Bay, 

 La. The copepod was most common in mussels, and only one was found in Venus. 

 The species is described and named. - J.L.M.
