THE ADAPTABILITY OF CHLOROCEBUS: A LOOK INTO THE BIRTH SEASONALITY AND POPULATION GROWTH OF THE VERVETS IN DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA

THE ADAPTABILITY OF CHLOROCEBUS: A LOOK INTO THE BIRTH SEASONALITY AND POPULATION GROWTH OF THE VERVETS IN DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA.

Abstract/Description
My study, presented as a short report, focuses on one of the Chlorocebus sabaeus vervet social groups residing in the coastal town of Dania Beach, Florida. Few researchers have studied these introduced primates in this particular region. Due to Chlorocebus’ flexible adaptation, they have an ability to live among humans in urban environments and in the Caribbean. Primate researchers primarily study factors that support and threaten their survival. Dr. Missy Williams, formerly of Florida...
Show moreMy study, presented as a short report, focuses on one of the Chlorocebus sabaeus vervet social groups residing in the coastal town of Dania Beach, Florida. Few researchers have studied these introduced primates in this particular region. Due to Chlorocebus’ flexible adaptation, they have an ability to live among humans in urban environments and in the Caribbean. Primate researchers primarily study factors that support and threaten their survival. Dr. Missy Williams, formerly of Florida Atlantic University, has conducted research on these social groups for several years, and my study adds more information to understanding the current status of the vervet population. In this study, I examine if birth seasonality correlates with annual rainfall in the South Florida region.

SPECIES RICHNESS, ABUNDANCE AND OCCURRENCE OF GRASSBED FISHES FROM JUPITER INLET, FLORIDA

SPECIES RICHNESS, ABUNDANCE AND OCCURRENCE OF GRASSBED FISHES FROM JUPITER INLET, FLORIDA.
Creator
SNYDER, DAVID BRANT., Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
The fish communities of two seagrass habitats near Jupiter Inlet, Florida, were studied from April 1981 to March 1982 to determine species composition, abundance, richness and occurrence. Monthly collections yielded a total of 23,156 specimens representing 47 families and 146 species. Both sites were numerically dominated by Lagodon rhomboides, Eucinostomus gula, and E. argenteus, which (combined) comprised 63% of the total catch. The presence of young lutjanids, haemulids, serranids and...
Show moreThe fish communities of two seagrass habitats near Jupiter Inlet, Florida, were studied from April 1981 to March 1982 to determine species composition, abundance, richness and occurrence. Monthly collections yielded a total of 23,156 specimens representing 47 families and 146 species. Both sites were numerically dominated by Lagodon rhomboides, Eucinostomus gula, and E. argenteus, which (combined) comprised 63% of the total catch. The presence of young lutjanids, haemulids, serranids and sphyraenids indicates the role of this area as a nursery ground. Temporal patterns in species composition and abundance were examined through numerical classification. Species composition was more consistent over time than were corresponding abundances. Despite their proximity, the two sites exhibited differences in species composition and abundance. The role of biological, physical and historical factors are discussed in relation to the observed community patterns.
