We calculated a diversity index for the East River based on our catch, which included moon jellyfish, grass shrimp, silverside fish, bay anchovies,
tomcod, striped bass, invasive Japanese crab, and a Northern pipefish, which looks like a straightened seahorse.
saida), Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus), walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus), and Pacific
tomcod (Microgadus proximus)--overlap with that of E.
Prey identified to the species level that occurred in >10% of scats included Pacific Herring, Pacific Staghorn Sculpin (Leptocottus armatus), Pacific
Tomcod (Microgadus proximus), North Pacific Hake, Californian Anchovy (Engraulis mordax), Eulachon (T.
Pacific
tomcod, Microgadus proximus, was a dominant species with high FO in trawls from both river areas, and although this species has not been identified as beluga prey, it is similar to Arctic and saffron cod which are important beluga prey.
Belugas diving under fast ice have also been reported in the spring in Norton Bay, Alaska, where belugas feed first on herring and later on
tomcod under the ice (Huntington et al., 1999).
The
tomcod living in the Hudson River have undergone a rapid evolutionary change in developing genetic resistance to PCBs, reported researchers from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), New York University (NYU), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Mechanistic basis of resistance to PCBs in Atlantic
tomcod from the Hudson River, Science 331:1322-1325.
Todmorden is
tomcod, whatever
tomcod is, but then the spell-checker rapidly moves on to odoured, outmode, Romford or Stamford.
(1977) examined the survival of adult Atlantic
tomcod (Microgadus
tomcod) at ambient temperature at Roseton and Danskammer Point Generating Stations located along the Hudson River.

This number is larger by five species (i.e., the quillback, inland silverside, Atlantic
tomcod, warmouth, and hogchoker) and three families (Atherinopsidae, Gadidae, and Achiridae) than that listed by Niles et al.
A
tomcod seems like all belly, a ling cod all head, but a halibut seems to be all meat.
