INTRODUCTION This bibliography contains entries for all publications included in the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) series, "FWS/OBS". This series was initiated in 1976 by the Office of Biological Services (OBS), hence the designation "FWS/OBS". Offices formerly in the OBS are now part of the ~ivision of Biological Services, Research and Development. In October 1984, the FWS/OBS series was replaced by the Biological Report series. This bibliography thus serves as a final record of the complete FWS/OBS series. Included are FWS/OBS series publ ications of the Eastern Energy and land Use Team, the National Coastal Ecosystems Team, the Western Energy and land Use Team, and a few Regional Office products. ARRANGEMENT OF ANNOTATIONS Entries are arranged by FWS/OBS number. The first two digits usually pertain to the year of publication or the year in which a subseries was initiated. (See, for example, the 82/10 series.) Basic bibliographic information and a brief annotation are included for each publication. In several cases, a single annotation has been used to describe a group of similar publ ications or a subseries. These "series" abstracts are indicated by asterisks (see, for example, page 10). Some of the manuscripts assigned FWS/OBS series numbers have, for a variety of reasons, never been published. These unused numbers are indicated in the bibliography, but have been omitted from the availability listing. KEYWORD INDEX The keyword-in-title index provided here contains significant subject and geographical terms used in each publication's title. Major subseries names, e.g., the Habitat Suitability Models and the Instream Flow Information Papers, have also been listed. AVAILABILITY INFORMATION The annotations section is followed by availability information. An "X" or a number in the columns labelled IIEElUT", "NCET", "OTHER", "WElUT", "NTIS", and "GPO" indicate that a particular publication is available from that source. 1
