    Description: The perovskite Li0.2Na0.8NbO3 is shown, by powder neutron diffraction, to display a unique sequence of phase transitions at elevated temperature. The ambient temperature polar phase (rhombohedral, space group R3c) transforms via a first-order transition to a polar tetragonal phase (space group P42mc) in the region 150–300°C; these two phases correspond to Glazer tilt systems a−a−a− and a+a+c−, respectively. At 500°C a ferroelectric–paraelectric transition takes place from P42mc to P42/nmc, retaining the a+a+c− tilt. Transformation to a single-tilt system, a0a0c+ (space group P4/mbm), occurs at 750°C, with the final transition to the aristotype cubic phase at 850°C. The P42mc and P42/nmc phases have each been seen only once and twice each, respectively, in perovskite crystallography, in each case in compositions prepared at high pressure.

    Description: The food and feeding habits of Protopterus annectens of the River Rima and Goronyo Dam in North Western Nigeria was studied. A total of one hundred and eighteen (118) fish samples were collected from October, 2001 to September, 2002 and the stomach contents were analyzed using frequency of occurrence method. The feeding adaptation with respect to mouth and related structures, gill rakers and dentition were examined. The gut length and fish length indicated rectilinear positive relationship. The regression coefficient (b) and correlation coefficient (r) of GL TL relationships were highly significant (p〈0. 01). The main taxa of food substances found in the stomachs included substances of plant and animal origins, with overall frequency of 49. 1and 38.3% for the samples from River Rima and 27.2 and 60.3% for those from Goronyo Dam in the same order. The results of percentage occurrence of the food items in the dry season showed that animal substances in the juveniles (51.7%) and the adults (41.4%) were higher than the plant materials in the samples from the two water bodies. In the rainy season, the percentage occurrences of animal substances were higher in the adults (= 30cm) samples from Goronyo Dam than those samples from River Rima, while the same food items were absent in the juveniles (= 30cm) from the two water bodies. These feeding adaptive features indicate the roles of the species in their ecological niche and provide base line information that could be useful in satisfying their food requirement under culture condition. The diversity of food substances found in the stomach and their occurrence in the juveniles and adults varied with the water bodies and season.

    Description: The gut length to standard length ratios of twelve fish species from the Ovia and Ikpoba Rivers were calculated to work out their feeding level in the food chain. The mean ratio of five species Brycinus macrolepidotus Smith, 0.9 Parachanna obscura (Gunther), 1.0, Papyrocranus afer. Gunthel; 0.35, and Xenomystus nigri Gunther 0.75, classify them as carnivores. Four species Synodontis eupterus Boulenger; 4.4 S.schall (Bloch and Schneider) 4.8, Tilapia mariae Boulenger, 3.5, and T. tilli (Gervais), 4.7, are herbivores. Three intermediate ratio species B. longipinnis (Gunther), 1.3,Chrysichthys furcatus (Gunther) 1.6, and Clenopoma kingsleyae Gunther, 1.8, are omnivores. The body depth of seven of the species was measured and expressed as percentage of the standard length to ascertain the accommodative capacity of the fish for the gut. In addition a review of culture of snake head fish Parachanna obscura is presented.

    Description: This study was carried out by surveying all the water bodies of two states where Typha grass exists. Soil auger was used to take soil samples randomly from five different locations in both Kebbi and Katsina state at the depths of 0-5cm, 510cm, 10 15cm. Soil nutrient was analyzed for the mineral composition of the two States at different season and soil depths. The result showed that, soil depth between 5-10cm has the highest percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus, calcium and magnesium during dry season. The nutrient composition of soil from the two states followed the same pattern during wet season.

    Description: The implications of the abattoir effluents discharge into the Lower Ogun River in Isheri-Olofin area on the abundance of three African fresh water prawns: Macrobrachium vollenhovenii, M macrobrachion and M. felicinum were assessed. Monthly prawn collections were undertaken using a scooping bag net with 0.05mm mesh size at three stations with 100m intervals in each of Ishasi (upstream) and Isheri-Olofin (downstream) areas of the river for 24months (January, 2006-December, 2007). For the 24month period, the upstream (pooled data from stations 1,2 and 3) had M. vollenhovenii of total and mean density of 27,938.33 prawn/m2 and 1164.60prawn/m2 1131.04 respectively, while total and mean M. vollenhovenii density of 5,815.43prawn/m2 and 243.81 prawn/m2 231.45 were obtained in the downstream (pooled stations 4, Sand 6 data). T-test showed the entire upstream to have significantly higher M. vollenhovenii density than the entire downstream (p〈0.05). The entire upstream had higher M. macrobrachium total and monthly mean density (19,092prawn/m and 816.44prawn/m2 1,354.28) than the entire downstream (6,384.47prwn/m2 and 266.02m2524.94) (p〈0.05). Also, significantly higher total and monthly mean density of M felicinum were obtained upstream (20,9S6.S0prawn/m2 and 873.46prawn/m21615.06) than downstream (10,9668.11prawn/m2 and 461.16prawn/m2975.19) (p〈0.05). The significance of the decline in abundance of each of the three Macrobrachium prawn species in the downstream area was discussed.

    Description: Research was carried out to explore the fish species diversity and study some aspects of the biology of fish of Daberam reservoir, Katsina state, Nigeria, for a period of three month from March to May 2009. Samples were collected from commercial fishermen and experimental fishing gears, preserved in formalin and taken to laboratory for identification; confirmation was done by fisheries experts. Eight genus comprising ten species were identified. The regression coefficient (b) was 3.07, 2.91 and 3.21 for the three most commercially importance species in the reservoir i.e. Oreochromis niloticus, and Clarias gariepinus respectively which indicated Positive allometric growth for O. niloticus and C. gariepinus and negative allometric growth for T. nilotica. The mean condition factor (k) was 1.140, with values of 1.027and 0.732 for O. niloticus and C. gariepinus, respectively. This indicates that the fish are not leaving well compared to other freshwater fishes.

    Description: The evaluation of Cr. Cu, Mn, Fe, Ni, Zn,As and Pb concentrations in Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus from Lake Geriyo Yola,Adamawa, Nigeria using X - ray fluorescence (XRF) technique is discussed. The analytical samples are irradiated with high energy electrons of 109Cd to produce fluorescent X-rays was produced which passes to the Silicon-lithium detector through Mo target as a source of monochromatic X-rays. The spectrum of energy generated on the detector was processed by a Multi- Channel Analyzer to obtain analytical data. The intensity of the fluorescent X-rays on the detector is proportional to the concentration of the individual element of interest in the sample. This method can identify up to 30 or more elements at the same time. The results showed varying levels of heavy metals in the fishes. The concentrations of Cr, Mn, Cu, and Ni in the fishes were much higher than WHO and PEPA maximum permissible limits, while the concentrations of Zn and Pb were lower than the standards. The results suggest that the lake is polluted with Cr, Mn, Cu and Ni and the consumption of fishes of the lake is life threatening to man.

    Description: The acute toxicity of promethazine hydrochloride (phenergan) to Clarias gariepinus fingerlings was conducted using static bioassay under laboratory conditions. The 96h LC50 was determined as 172.5 mg/1. Mean mortality was 5, 10, 20, 50, 100% in the concentration of 69, 103.5, 138.0, 172.5 and 207 mg/1 respectively, while there was no mortality in the control treatment. There were significant differences (P〈0.05) on the effect of concentration, the higher the mortality of C. gariepinus fingerlings while toxicity of phenergan increased with duration of exposure. C. gariepinus showed increased hyperactivities, cell deformation, lesions and necrosis during the period of exposure. The physicochemical parameters also showed a slight increase as the concentration increased.
