Abstract
Juvenile striped bass Morone saxatilis, 80–300 mm in total length and acclimated to 22–24 C, generally selected temperatures in the range 24–27 C during spring and summer in laboratory horizontal temperature gradients and electronic shuttleboxes and in exploratory telemetry trials at a freshwater quarry lake. During autumn, preferred temperatures in laboratory gradients declined to 20–25 C. Received August 12, 1981 Accepted June 23, 1984Keywords
