Abstract:
A limited survey was conducted in 2003 to determine if Ochlerotatus japonicus was spreading outside of King County, Washington. Ochlerotatus japonicus was found in north-central Pierce County and west-central Snohomish County. These collections represent county records. An additional site was reported from King County. Ochlerotatus japonicus is established and spreading to other areas of Washington.

Osmoregulation in Fishes
When cells are placed in a hypotonic (low-salt) fluid, they can swell and burst. Meanwhile, cells in a hypertonic solution—with a higher salt concentration—can shrivel and die. How do fish cells avoid these gruesome fates in hypotonic freshwater or hypertonic seawater environments?
Conservation of Declining Populations
Conservation of declining population focuses on ways of detecting, diagnosing, and halting a population decline. The approach uses methods to prevent populations from going extinct.
