 Analyses of constituents of body fluids 

 relative to hypo- and hyper-saline environ- 

 ments in the bays of south Texas. The blue 

 crab had limited hyporegulatory ability for 

 total blood concentration, and marked 

 ability to regulate blood magnesium and 

 sulphate in high salinity. Ratios of stomach 

 fluid to blood for magnesium, sulphate, 

 and osmotic concentration were much 

 higher than the same ratios for other ions.

Sections on the blue crab (No. 6-7, p. 

 72-86) include a detailed report on the 

 stages of molting and hardening of the new 

 shell. Effect of temperature and sunshine 

 on the time required to complete the molt. 

 Method of capturing soft crabs for market, 

 centered in Chesapeake Bay (price to 

 fishermen was 2 dollars a dozen). Catching 

 hard crabs with spear, forked stick, and line 

 and hand net. Use of crabs as hog food.

 determining the reciprocal number of 

 photons required to evoke a constant size

Little loss of flavor and texture of soft-shell 

 crabs during 15 months of freezing. Total 

 bacterial count decreased slowly during 

 storage. No definite correlation between 

 the quality of crabs before freezing and the 

 bacterial content of the product after 

 storage in the frozen state.
