Sodium, Chloride and Water Balance of the Intertidal Teleost, Xiphister Atropurpureus : I. Regulation of Plasma Concentration and Body Water Content

DAVID H. EVANS 1

1 Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, California; Department of Biology, University of Lancaster, England

1. Studies were undertaken to determine the degree of regulation of sodium, chloride and water displayed by the intertidal teleost, Xiphister atropurpureus, over a range of salinities.

2. The plasma concentrations of sodium and chloride declined by approximately 15 % in 10 % sea water (48 mM-Na/kg.) and the intracellular and extracellular spaces increased by approximately 6 % in 10% sea water.
