THE GLOCHIDIAL CONGLUTINATES OF THE ARKANSAS FANSHELL, CYPROGENIA ABERTI (CONRAD)

THOMAS K. CHAMBERLAIN 1

1 U. S. BUREAU OF FISHERIES LABORATORIES, UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI

1. The brightly colored worm-like conglutinates of Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad), the Arkansas fanshell, are described.

2. Experimental evidence is offered showing that these conglutinates serve as fish lures and thereby aid in the transfer of the ripe glochidia from the gravid female mussel to a host fish.
