A Physonemus Spine from the Lower Mercer Limestone (Pennsylvanian) of Portage County, Ohio Murphy, James L., 1941- A small, relatively complete icthyodorulite from the Lower Mercer Limestone of the Pennsylvanian Pottsville Group (Kanawha-Lampasas Series and Westphalian B) has been found in eastern Portage County, Ohio. The spine is comparable to Physonemus acinaciformis (St. John and Worthen), P. striatus (Moore), and P. anceps (Newberry and Worthen), the first two of which may be synonyms.

Abraded Ripple-Marked Surfaces in Columbus Limestone, Central Ohio Bates, Robert L. Quarrying in Scioto Township, Delaware County, Ohio, in 1966-67 uncovered an area of well-developed ripple marks at the top of the Columbus Limestone (Middle Devonian) and beneath a few inches of "bone bed" at the base of the overlying Delaware Limestone. The ripples averaged about 19 inches in wavelength and 1.5 inches in ripple height; they had smoothly rounded crests and were notably symmetrical. Their trend was N23°W. The ripple-marked surface beveled corals and other fossils, and merged laterally into a type of surface long known locally as "smooth rock," which is clearly a surface of abrasion. In all these respects the rippled surface is remarkably similar to others in the Columbus Limestone, reported many years ago, that are as much as 85 miles away. A two-stage history of formation is indicated. First, waves produced ripple marks in poorly sorted carbonate sands on a shallow bottom. Later, after consolidation of the sediment, storm waves were agents of intense scouring and smoothing of the bottom. The later part of this history seems to be confirmed by analogy with a carbonate deposit of Holocene age. Author Institution: Department of Geology, The Ohio State University, Columbus

Electrophoretic Analyses of Serum Proteins of the Albino Rat McCormick, David F.; Graham, James D. Study of the leukemias and polycythemia has been complicated by the inability to isolate pure preparations of suspected "control factors" of hemopoiesis. The presence in rat serum of a factor controlling granulocyte maturation in rat bone-marrow has been demonstrated, but precise analysis has not been possible because of the lack of clear identification of rat-serum proteins. This study analyzes serum proteins of the albino rat through relative electrophoretic mobilities and specific staining. Pooled rat- and human-serum samples were fractionated by gel nitration on Sephadex G-200. The resulting fractions were further separated by vertical discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Identification of proteins was based on relative mobility and on reactions with general portein, glycoprotein, lipoprotein, and haptoglobin stains. The low-molecular-weight fraction (MW 5,000-150,000) of rat serum contained prealbumin, albumin, three alpha-1, five alpha-2, and two beta globulins, and two alpha lipoproteins. The three alpha-1 globulins were implicated as a possible maturation factor. The slowest alpha-2 globulin was shown to be a haptoglobin. The intermediate-molecularweight fraction (MW 150,000-300,000) was composed of two gamma globulins, a benzidinepositive alpha-2 globulin, two alpha-1 globulins, and an alpha lipoprotein component. The high-molecular-weight fraction (MW 300,000+) contained a beta-lipoprotein, two gamma macroglobulins, and two alpha-1 macroglobulins. Further diffuse staining was present in the gamma region. All of the non-lipoproteins in these two fractions were glycoproteins. Mobilities of the major identifiable human-serum proteins (prealbumin, albumin, gamma globulin, haptoglobin) were similar to the same proteins in the rat, although many differences were apparent. Human albumin and prealbumin formed a separate fourth fraction which was not found in the rat. Author Institution: Department of Biology, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio 43403

Productivity of White-Tailed Deer in Ohio Nixon, Charles M. Productivity of Ohio white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) was calculated from examination of 651 reproductive tracts obtained between 1951 and 1967. Adult doe (1.5+ years) breeding begins in late October and peaks between November 3 and November 16. Precocial-fawn does begin to conceive in mid-November, with 70 percent of fawn conceptions occurring between November 24 and December 21. Breeding activity reaches a peak about one week earlier north of latitude 40° compared with that in southern Ohio. Nearly 77 percent of the fawn does and all but one adult doe examined had ovulated. Precocial-fawn breeders averaged 1.29, yearlings 1.87, and adults 2.04 fetuses per breeder. Ovum and embryo mortality for the first three months gestation averaged 11.5 percent for all age classes of does. Fawn mortality between mid-gestation and 5-7 months postpartum totaled at least 21.9 percent. Fawn and yearling does carried significantly more male than female fetuses, while the fetal sex ratio from 2+ year does was essentially 1:1. For all fetuses examined, the secondary sex ratio was 58.6 percent males. Male fawns die at a rate between 1.22 and 1.26 times greater than do females up through six months postpartum. A representative 100 Ohio does could produce 153 fetuses, while a representative 100 deer of both sexes could produce 74 fetuses. This theoretical increase rate of 74 percent, when compared with the actual rate of increase of about 20 percent since 1962, indicates that the annual mortality rate of the Ohio deer herd has been about 50 percent in recent years.

Distribution of Biota in a Stream Polluted by Acid Mine-Drainage Warner, Richard W. Acidic water draining from coal mines has severely restricted the diversity of biota inhabiting Roaring Creek, eastern West Virginia. Polluted reaches of the stream (median pH values ranging from 2.8 to 3.8) were inhabited by 3 to 12 genera of bottom-dwelling invertebrates and 10 to 19 species of periphytic algae. Invertebrates tolerant of the pollution included Sialis sp., Chironomus plumosus and other Chironomidae, dytiscid beetles, and Ptilostomis sp. Predominant among the tolerant periphyton were Ulothrix tenerrima, Pinnularia termitina, Eunotia exigua, and Euglena mutabilis. Six other species of algae were tolerant of the acid mine-pollution, but were never numerous. Sections of Roaring Creek not severely polluted by acid drainage (pH medians of 4.5 or higher) supported diverse communities of 25 or more kinds of benthic animals and 27 or more species of periphytic algae. These stream reaches were inhibited by blackflies, crayfish, mayflies, stoneflies, and many species of caddisflies; these forms did not inhabit the more acidic stream reaches. Because of the complex and varying chemical composition of the acid mine-drainage, and also because of possible physical influences, measurements of pH values in the stream seemed to provide the most reliable, as well as unique, index of the effects of acid minedrainage on aquatic life.

Parallelocrinus (Crinoidea, Inadunata) in the Ames Limestone, Pennsylvanian, of Ohio Burke, J. J. A new erisocrinid, Parallelocrinus sturgeoni sp. nov. from the Ames Limestone, Conemaugh Group, Pennsylvanian, of Guernsey County, Ohio, is described. The species differs from Parallelocrinus typus Knapp in having steeper sloping infrabasal plates; broader and flatter basal circlet; radials with steeper lateral walls, less prominent and stronger sloping forefacets, and outward-facing articular facets; and cup plates without nodes, having fine ornament only.
