Abstract

Field and laboratory observations revealed tidal and diurnal cues for spawning in the atlantic silverside, Menidia menidia. In the field, spawning runs began approximately when daytime flood tide velocities ranged from 3 to 16 (x = 11) cm sec−1. Spawning runs ended at ebb tide velocities ranging from 5 to 22 (x = 17) cm sec−1.
