| Abstract | The chapter provides a detailed description of the life history, geographical distribution of the life history, geographical distribution, and procedures for laboratory spawning, culturing and testing of five fishes, the sheepshead minnow, Cyprinodon variegatus, the inland silverside, Menidia beryllina, Atlantic silverside, M. menidia, California grunion, Leuresthes tenuis, and topsmelt, Atherinops affinis. Procedures for conducting acute toxicity tests (static and flow-through) as well as early life-stage toxicity tests are presented. Methods required for culturing of food organisms, the alga, Isochrysis galbana, rotifers, Brachionus plicatilus, and brine shrimp, Artemia salina, are also described. Tabular and diagrammatic data summaries of pertinent information required for utilization of each species in evaluation of environmental toxicants is presented. | |||||||||||
