Publication of an abstract and/or paper in the Proceedings should therefore not be considered documentation of presentation of the paper or poster at the meeting. The Proceedings are published and mailed to all members of the Desert Fishes Council and subscribing libraries in the spring of the year following the Annual Symposium. All contributions are published as received following automated electronic processing designed to standardize format only Authors are responsible for their own technical editing and for any errors caused by failure to follow Instructions to Authors (published in each volume). Proofs are not provided to authors for review prior to publication, and neither abstracts nor full papers are subjected to peer review. Resolutions are published here exactly as passed by the membership in the business meeting of the annual symposium, and as mailed by the Executive Secretary to the addresses noted for each. The Translation Subcommittee of the Proceedings Committee accepts responsibility for errors in translations to Spanish. This committee provides original translations of all abstracts and resolutions when translations are not provided by authors. They also edit all versions of Spanish abstracts provided by authors. Translations to English of all abstracts received only in Spanish are done by the editor and reviewed by the Translations Subcommittee.
