This is a list of articles about poetry in a single language or produced by a single nation.
World languages will tend to have a large body of poetry contributed to by several nations (Anglosphere, Francophonie, Latin America, German-speaking Europe), while for smaller languages, the body of poetry in a particular language will be identical to the national poetry of the nation or ethnicity associated with that language.

# Atlantic City Express (Amtrak train)

The Atlantic City Express was an Amtrak train that ran from Harrisburg, New York City, Richmond, Springfield and Washington, D.C. to Atlantic City, New Jersey, in the Northeastern United States. The train operated on the Northeast Corridor to 30th Street Station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where it went east to Atlantic City.

## History

The new service started service in May 1989, after Amtrak spent extra Northeast Corridor improvement funds to rehabilitate the 60.3 mile long Atlantic City Line from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. The train was designed to provide service to gamblers and vacationers. The train made a single local stop on the Atlantic City Line. Amtrak completely renovated the Lindenwold Station and it served as a stop until July 1994, when the local stop was changed to the new Cherry Hill station due to low ridership at Lindenwold.
Amtrak also operated some through services from Atlantic City to Richmond, Virginia and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In June 1990, Amtrak entered into a partnership with Midway Airlines to operate trains from Philadelphia International Airport to Atlantic City via SEPTA. However, the service was short-lived, as Midway Airlines went bankrupt in the summer of 1991.
The Amtrak service to Atlantic City never hit its expected ridership levels. In another effort to gain more riders, service was extended to Springfield, Massachusetts and New Haven, Connecticut. Even then, most passengers traveled between New York and Philadelphia rather than continue on to Atlantic City. Amtrak also had to compete with a number of bus lines offering discounted rates at casinos. Although the trains were moderately successful, Amtrak still deemed that the poor showing of riders was not enough to warrant train service, and plans were made to discontinue the line. All Amtrak service to Atlantic City was discontinued after April 1, 1995. The following day, New Jersey Transit extended all Atlantic City Line trains to Philadelphia; previously only a select few had run west of Lindenwold.

### Atlantic City Express Service

A successor to the former Amtrak service, Atlantic City Express Service (ACES), began a weekend express train from New York Penn Station to Atlantic City on February 6, 2009. The service was sponsored by several casinos and was run by New Jersey Transit over the Northeast Corridor and the Atlantic City Lines, with a stop in Newark. The last train ran in September 2011, with the train formally discontinued in 2012.
# Hypsibarbus lagleri

Hypsibarbus lagleri is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Hypsibarbus which is endemic to the middle Mekong basin in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. It is fished for as a food fish and marketed fresh.
Hypsibarbus lagleri has 8 soft rays I its dorsal fin and 5 in its anal fin. It has a very compressed body with an upper transverse scale count of 6. The fins are colourless. It has a gill raker count of 9–10 on the lower arm of first gill arch and there are 5 horizontal scale rows between the lateral line and the mid-dorsal scale row at the origin of the dorsal-fin. It can grow to up to 40 cm in length.
This species can be found in large rivers during the dry season and migrates into medium-sized rivers during the monsoon. It prefers clear water where it occurs in the midwater to bottom depths. This species possibly moves into flooded forest habitats immediately adjacent to rivers, but it avoids substrates consisting of fine-grained sediments, preferring rocky substrates instead. It does not seem to do well in impoundments. Feeds on zooplankton, worms and algae. Hypsibarbus lagleri migrates up the Mekong River in January–February, then moves back downstream into the lower basin where the Sesan, Srepok, and Sekong enter the Mekong in June–July.
Hypsibarbus lagleri is classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN and is threatened by overfishing as it is subjected to both commercial and subsistence fisheries, it is also threatened by dams which are planned for the Mekong, Sesan, Srepok, and Sekong.
The specific name lagleri commemorates the American ichthyologist Karl F. Lagler (1912-1985), who directed and organised studies of the fisheries in the Mekong Basin and many of the specimens used in Rainboth's study of the genus Hypsibarbus were collected during Lagler's studies.
