Abstract:

The Nags Head Woods Ecological Preserve, located in Dare County, is one of the best remaining examples of mid-Atlantic maritime deciduous forests. Using recent collections, Krings makes additions to previous botanical collections. Fifteen species of plants had not been reported previously in the preserve, while the Outer Banks has six new additions. Five have been rediscovered after having been last seen over twenty-six years ago.

Abstract:

Four species of frogfishes occur in North Carolina waters: the ocellated frogfish, singlespot frogfish, striated frogfish, and the sargassumfish. Other than their general ranges, little is known about them. Schwartz discusses the distribution and size of these creatures found in North Carolina and why their occurrences, except the sargassumfish, have been scarce since the 1980s.
