The term "spawning season" might be misleading, because it is commonly used to refer to the occasion when the glochidia are discharged to the exterior, and this may be weeks, months, or sometimes nearly a year after the eggs are actually extruded from the reproductive organs and the young are launched into existence. In general, the deposition of eggs--the actual spawning process, scientifically speaking--occurs with the long-term breeding class (see below) in the latter part of the summer or early fall. In the short-term breeding class spawning usually takes place in June, July, or August, although in one or two species it is known to occur as early as April. One mussel, the washboard, deposits eggs only in the late summer and early fall, August to October. It is the experience of the Fisheries Biological Station at Fairport that the spawning seasons of mussels fluctuate to some degree in different years, no doubt because the ripening of mussels is affected by varying conditions of water temperature. There are also, of course, some differences of breeding season corresponding to differing climatic conditions in more northern or more southern waters. SEASONS OF INCUBATION OF EGGS. Generally speaking, fresh-water mussels may be divided into two classes with respect to their breeding seasons--the long-term breeders and the short-term breeders. In the case of the long-term breeders the eggs are fertilized during the middle or latter part of the summer and, passing into the brood pouches, develop into glochidia, which are usually matured by fall or early winter. The glochidia may pass the entire winter in the brood pouches, to be expelled during the following spring and ...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
