Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Report Upon the Quahaug and Oyster Fisheries of Massachusetts: Including the Life History, Growth and Cultivation of the Quahaug (Venus Mercenaria), And Observations on the Set of Oyster Spat in Wellfleet Bay Massachusetts, from its geographical location as a distributing center and from the character of its shores, is peculiarly endowed for securing an enormous shellfish trade. Recognizing the importance of the shores as a source of food and wealth for the people of the state, a natural safeguard against the excessive cost of living, the legislatures from 1905 to 1910 directed the Commissioners on Fisheries and Game to conduct a series of investigations and demonstrations to determine methods of developing the shellfisheries. In 1906 and 1907 two preliminary statements were published; in 1909 a general "Report upon the Mollusk Fisheries;" and in 1910 a special "Report upon the Scallop Fishery." The reports herewith presented relate to the "Quahaug and Oyster Fisheries," and will be followed by others on the "Clam Fishery" and the "Food of the Economic Mollusks." Sir: - I herewith submit the following report upon the life history and growth of the quahaug or hard clam (Venus mercenaria). All investigations herein are supplementary to those made in accordance with the provisions of chapter 78, Resolves of 1905. The work was conducted by D. L. Belding, assisted by W. H. Gates and C. L. Savery in 1906, W. G. Vinal in 1907, 1908 and 1909, F. C. Lane, and A. A. Perkins in 1908 and 1909. The report on the mollusk fisheries for 1909 presented a preliminary survey of the prevailing conditions in the natural quahaug beds of the commonwealth, showing by maps and descriptions their extent, condition, present production, and possibility of development under cultural methods.

Book excerpt: The hard clam, Mercenaria mercenaria, is an important commercial, recreational and ecological inhabitant of coastal bays along the east and gulf coasts of the United States. This title represents the first state of the art summary of existing knowledge of the hard clam by experts in various disciplines.Containing a compendium of literature on the hard clam, comprehensive chapters on various aspects of its biology as well as summaries of knowledge including the gray literature on this economically important species, this volume represents a comprehensive source of biological information for managers and researchers interested in shallow marine and estuarine ecosystems. Research students and managers charged with maintaining coastal ecosystems will also find a wealth of background material.The first synthesis of available information on the mercenaria mercenaria, this title is a response to the needs of individuals involved in hard clam aquaculture and scientists interested in molluscan biology, coastal ocean ecology and similar fields. Over 2300 documents have been synthesized, and chapter authors have added unpublished information as well as new material.
