    Notes: Abstract Triweekly trawling around low tide during daylight at 1, 2, 3, and 4 m depths along north Kuwait Bay's extensive intertidal mudflats from 1 April 1985 through 9 December 1986 showed the catchability ofMetapenaeus affinis (H. Milne-Edwards, 1837),M. stebbingi Nobili, 1904,Parapenaeopsis stylifera (H. Milne-Edwards, 1837), andPenaeus semisulcatus De Haan, 1844 differed significantly with depth and season. All species were significantly more catchable in 1 and 2 m depths than in 3 and 4 m depths.M. affinis showed the clearest and most consistent relationship with depth: catchability in 1 m depths was significantly greater than that in 2 m depths (24.9 vs 5.4 per 5-min tow), and catchability in 1 and 2 m depths was significantly greater than that in 3 and 4 m depths (15.2 vs 1.4 per 5-min tow).M. affinis also showed the clearest relationship of increasing size with depth. Shrimp captured in 1 m depths were significantly smaller (~ 14 mm carapace length, CL) than those captured in 2 m depths in the spring (~23 mm CL) and summer (~ 18 mm CL). In the absence of low-salinity waters and intertidal vegetation, it is believed that the edge of the advancing and receding tide over the mudflats, i.e. the shallowest waters, provides juvenile shrimp, particularlyM. affinis, protection from predation.

    Notes: Three well-documented accounts of whale sharks, Rhiniodon typus, in Kuwait's coastal waters represent the first report of this species in the area since 1968.

    Notes: The intertidal migrations of shallow water fishes in Kuwait Bay were studied during two 24 h periods using an otter trawl. Most species wereconcentrated at a location corresponding to Low Low Water mark. At the other tidal levels some fishes migrated with the tide to High High Water mark through a horizontal distance of up to 2 km. Any effect of day and night on the catch was masked by the effect of tidal condition. Leiognarhus decorus (de Vis) was typically concentrated at Low Water but a proportion of the population followed the rising tide toward the shore. There was a die1 effect whichmay have been due to fish moving to shallower water at night compared with the day. Length-frequency distribution changed slightly with tidal state so that larger fish were not captured at High Water during the day. Of the fishes captured at high tide, the largest individuals of L. decorus were captured at a depth of 2.0 m deep. Solea elongata Day did not migrate with tidal fluctuations and was captured in large numbers only at Low Water. Arius tenuispinis Day was captured in shoals at or around Low Water.

    Notes: Abstract An experiment has been performed with the Fermilab 30-inch bubble chamber and Downstream Particle Identifier to study inclusive charged pion production in the high energy interactions of π±,K +,p and $$\bar p$$ with thin foils of magnesium, silver and gold. The laboratory rapidity and transverse momentum distributions are presented separately for π+ and π− production. Comparisons are made with data from hadron-proton interactions and theA dependence of the cross sections in the different kinematic regions is discussed. We investigate the dependence of the cross sections on the number of observed protons ejected from the nucleus. By using our π− A data from two different beam energies, we study the energy dependence of these spectra. Comparisons are made with the VENUS string model Monte Carlo.
