30 Shuster & Botton (1985): Some little-known trivia Original title was An estimate of the 1977 spawning population of the horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, in Delaware Bay Intended journal was Chesapeake Science, which ceased publication in December, 1977
31 Shuster & Botton (1985): Some little-known trivia First submitted to Estuaries in 1979 (rejected) Re-submitted to Estuaries ~ 1980 or 1981 (rejected)
32 Shuster & Botton (1985) Second revised manuscript, now with a new title, was submitted to Estuaries in 1985, and accepted. The editor s cover letter stated that: One reviewer rated your manuscript fair, requiring minor revision, and the other rated it fair, not acceptable with any revision Given the long history of this ms., many reviewers clearly have had problems with it
33 Shuster & Botton (1985) Shoreline surveys of spawning adult HSC s ( back-of-the-envelope estimates) Approximating the number of spawning females from densities of egg clusters Number of eggs per cluster Number of eggs in gravid females
34 Carl had some notable insights in the Discussion section Significantly, the present center of spawning activity is along a beach largely undisturbed by man. Activities which alter or destroy beaches will ultimately have a negative impact upon populations of horseshoe crabs. (p. 370)
35 Limulus polyphemus is a slow growing animal Once a population of this species is established it may therefore be more stable than a shorter-lived species. Conversely, if heavily harvested, it may take longer to repopulate an area. (p. 370)
36 Life table statistics are not available, especially for the several age classes of young Limulus. Should the need for management arise, statistics on the fate of the young will be required in order to predict the effect of fishing and other pressures on populations. (p. 371)
37 Carl Shuster and the Flourishing of International Cooperation: Visit to Delaware Bay in 1989 by Dr. Sekiguchi and Students Hiroaki Sugita Carl Shuster Koichi Sekiguchi Tomio Itow Fumio Shishikura
38 1994 visit to Japan by Shuster and Botton, guided by Koichi Sekiguchi, Hiroaki Sugita, and others
39 Examining Carcinoscorpius at the Shimoda Marine Laboratory, 1994 With Hiroaki Sugita, Tomio Itow, and Koichi Sekiguchi, 1994
40 With Koichi Sekiguchi at the entrance to the Kabutogani Museum in Kasaoka City, Japan in 1994
41 With Koichi Sekiguchi in Imari, Japan in 1994, admiring the HSC tile on the sidewalk
42 Measuring Tachypleus tridentatus at the Shimoda Marine Lab in We were especially intrigued by the double pair of claspers in Tachypleus males, compared to the single pair in Limulus.

50 Yogi Berra: You can observe a lot by just watching
51 Carl has always stressed the importance of long-term observations of nature. This was the typical scene south of the Rutgers University Cape Shore Laboratory ca. 1980
52 The same region in May, 2016
53 A little further to the south, in May, 2016
54 The beach directly in front of the Cape Shore Lab itself the very beach where I first met Carl in 1977!
55 Carl s keen observations and insights about HSC s have been indispensible. Thank you for your inspiration guidance, and friendship!
