The present study was undertaken to cast some light on this methodological problem as well as to determine how representative the materials used in biological research on Illex argentinus have been so far. It is contended that trawling, as a forced sampling technique, provides a sample representative of an Illex population, while jigging, as a harvesting/sampling method based on behavioural responses of the squids, is selective. The squids were obtained during commercial trawling and jigging operations undertaken on 4-15, 24-25 and 28-31 March and 2, 7-11 April 1992 in the Illex-rich Falkland Interim Conservation Zone. Differences among basic biological parameters of the population (e.g. length and maturity frequency) indicate that jigger-caught Illex were larger than those caught by trawling by 7 mm (males) and 12 mm (females) on the average. Jiggers affected the behavioural responses of the squids and resulted in higher frequencies of larger individuals. Those frequencies being higher by: 13.5% in 25-28 cm long males, the general range being 19-28 cm; 21.2% in 26-30 cm long females, the general range being 16-30 cm. Differences between the jigger-and trawl-caught squid lengths can be described with a linear regression. The jigger-caught Illex were more mature than those caught with the trawl by 0.8% (males) and 5.1% (females), on the average.
18 saddle horses including 4 thoroughbred, 5 half-bred Anglo-Arabian, 3 of Wielkopolska breed and 6 not having parentage were studied. Having measured the hight at withers and sacrum, longitudinal trunk lenght, chest depth and chest and cannon girth, the following indices were calculated: chest girth, eurhysomia, chest depth, cannon girth. The aim of the experiment was an attempt to evaluate jumping ability of horses without riders on the path of 21 m long and 4,5 m wide. Three obstacles of 2 types were installed on it. The first type consisted of an "envelope" like oxer of 30 cm high, uprights of 70 cm and 140 cm high. The other one - the same first two obstacles and the oxer of 110/120 cm high and 130 cm wide /between the bars/. At the end of the experiment, the last obstacle was riscd up to determine jumping ability of horses. Correlations between jumping ability and above mentioned indices of exterior were calculated.
Differences in the diameter of Isospora lacazei oocysts were found to be dependent on diet and other factors. House sparrows which were given animal products as food (hard boiled eggs) excreted with their faeces coccidia oocysts, which were larger than when they were fed grain. The results indicate a need to verify the divisions of the systematics of Isospora lacazei.
Morphological characteristics of M. fossilis was based on 139 specimens. Sexual dimorphism is manifested in 20 metric characters and in anatomical differences: structure of pectoral fins and presence of thickenings on the body sides of males. Growth of particular body parts is allometric, the main increase in the total body length falling on its mid part. Based on literature data, the material was compared with other European populations. The comparison revealed a wide variation of metric characters showing, however, no clinal pattern.
e size, length/weight relationship, sex ration and gonadosomatic index of the autumn and spring upstream run populations of the river lamprey have been studied. The size attained by the lampreys from the lower Vistula basin (Drwęca R.) is among the largest recorded for this species. In autumn males in the studied rivers outnumber females. In this period lampreys are bigger than during the spring run. The mass of gonads and the GSI in early spring are higher than in autumn.
The effect of exposure of juvenile individuals of Lymnaea stagnalis to infectious eggs of Opisthioglyphe ranae on dynamics of their growth was investigated under controlled conditions in laboratory. In infected snails enlargement of body weight and linear parameters of shell were observed. Any differences in shell shape, analysed on the base of regression of shell width towards to its height, were not ascertained in uninfected snails and those infected with parthenites of the trematode. The findings with this host-parasite system are discussed in relation to possible mechanisms of pathogenesis of somatic gigantism in other trematode-snail interactions.
The plastic and meristic characters of the river lamprey were studied in 145 specimens of the autumn and spring run populations from the north-Polish rivers (the Grabowa, Drwęca, Wda, Parsęta). Among the examined lamprey populations entering the Polish rivers in autumn no essential differences in body proportions are observed. In comparison with autumn populations, the lampreys that start their spawning migration as late as spring differ more considerably with respect body proportions. Besides, they are characterised by more marked sexual dimorphism, which can be related to more advanced development of gonads.
