    Notes: Summary Ultraviolet light excites a red fluorescence fromDrosophila R1–6 rhabdomeres which is superimposed on a blue background emission. Metarhodopsin (M570) pigment generates some or all of the vitamin A dependent red emission. However, the excitation spectrum for red emission peaks in the UV. This suggests that the pigment which sensitizes R1–6's visual pigment to UV light (sensitizing pigment) absorbs the UV light, sensitizing metarhodopsin's fluorescence by energy transfer. Blue emission is neither from sensitizing pigment nor from visual pigment as shown by vitamin A deprivation studies. Very intense UV or blue stimulation causes these changes: (1) conversion of visual pigment into a fluorescent product; (2) destruction of this fluorescent product; (3) a decrease in the blue background fluorescence (even in vitamin A deprived flies); and (4) a permanent destruction of visual pigment and retinal degeneration. The first effect requires intensities 3 log units brighter than needed to interconvert rhodopsin and metarhodopsin 1/2 way to photoequilibrium. UV light is about 5 times as effective as blue light for the conversion of visual pigment into fluorescent product.

    Notes: Summary The ecomorphological model which attempts to identify important variation in the total morphology of groups of animals has been used with some success in communities of fishes. The applicability of the model to subsets of the community, such as guilds of ecologically similar species, is uncertain, and the effects of the possible changes in correlations among morphological variables caused by demographic changes across seasons is unknown. An ecomorphological model is applied to a guild of benthic stream fishes from the Tombigbee River, Mississippi. The model is found to describe structuring in the guild based on aspects of the trophic morphology and the length of the body. Morphologically distinct groups of species are described by the model. The effect of indeterminate growth seems not to be of sufficient magnitude to change groupings across seasons. However, species associations within morphological groups change seasonally. I conclude that ecomorphological models may be properly applied to community subsets, but the interpretation of the model must consider the nature of the data set with respect of seasonality.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Light-induced transformations of organic chemicals have been studied to provide kinetic results concerning the influence of sunlight on pollutant behavior in lakes and rivers. A review of these studies shows that the humus component of the dissolved organic matter in natural water affects aquatic photoreactions in two important ways: by attenuating sunlight and by sensitizing photoreactions. Studies of humus-sensitized photoreactions of furans, sulfides, dienes, nitroaromatic compounds, and other chemicals are discussed. Research concerning effects of aquatic particulates on pollutant photoreaction rates are reviewed. Suspended sediments mainly affect photolysis rates through light attenuation and scattering. Algae, diatoms, and bacteria accelerate light-induced transformations of anilines and phosphorothioate insecticides, suggesting that photobiological processes may play a significant role in the breakdown of certain pollutants in aquatic environments. Evidence is presented that nitrate, iron species, and peroxides may be responsible for sunlight-initiated free radical oxidations of pollutants in some natural waters.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Um kinetische Daten über den Einfluß von Sonnenlicht auf das Verhalten von Verunreinigungen in Seen und Flüssen zu erhalten, wurden licht-induzierte Umwandlungsreaktionen von organischen Chemikalien untersucht. Es ergab sich, daß die Humuskomponente der in natürlichen Wässern gelösten organischen Substanzen auf zwei Arten die aquatischen Photoreaktionen beeinflußt. durch Schwächung des Sonnenlichtes und durch Sensibilisierung der Photoreaktionen. Humus-sensibilisierte Photoreaktionen von Furanen, Sulfiden, Dienen, nitroaromatischen Verbindungen u.a. werden diskutiert. Ein Überblick wird gegeben über die Wirkung aquatischer Partikel auf die Geschwindigkeit der Photoreaktion von Verunreinigungen. Suspendierte Sedimente wirken hauptsächlich durch Lichtabschwächung und Streuung auf die Photolysegeschwindigkeit. Algen, Diatomeen und Bakterien beschleunigen lichtinduzierte Umwandlungen von Anilinen und Phosphorthioat-Insecticiden, was darauf hindeutet, daß photobiologische Prozesse eine bedeutende Rolle beim Abbau gewisser Verunreinigungen in aquatischer Umgebung spielen könnten. Es wird gezeigt, daß Nitrat, Eisenverbindungen und Peroxide für die Sonnenlicht-induzierte Oxidation freier Radikale von Verunreinigungen in natürlichen Wässern verantwortlich sein können.
