Naked soles (Gymnachirus melas) are now known from 108 specimens collected between 1951 and 2003 off North Carolina ocean waters. Standard lengths, total lengths, capture depths, and capture locations of the naked soles were documented, but much remains unknown about their distribution, abundance, and biology.

The Blue Ridge Parkway is a federal parkway administered by the National Park Service in Virginia and North Carolina. This study is an attempt to better understand which species of wildlife are directly affected by vehicular traffic along the parkway, as well as what might be the cause of high road-kill rates.
