In the frenetic tempo of mod- ern times, we often bypass this goal. In our multitasked lives, we tend to have a focused search for spe- cific items of information we need at the moment, usually on Internet search engines such as Google or on electronic databases and digital libraries. After we are provided an array of sources, we grab the particular piece of information and move on. Perhaps the new culture of science of keeping focus in the specific objective at hand and not delving deeper is an adaptation to the speed at which changes are coming. A colleague recently confided that a genetics professor that has been around for decades has no advantage over a post-doc because the genetic techniques are changing so fast that both are chal- lenged equally in keeping up. As the Red Queen (in Through the Looking Glass) said, “It takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place.” PhD candidates in genetics, when analyzing their data and writing their dissertations, are finding the techniques they used in obtaining their data are becom- ing out of date during the four or five years they were in graduate school and so they need to publish each individual chapter before they finish their dissertation. Lu Eldredge always had been different. Lu may have started after particular facts, but he always wanted to learn the whole story and would keep digging deeper even when most others would have considered they had enough. At the University of Guam, the University of Hawai‘i and the Bishop Museum, Lu mentored young scientists and students and was an encyclopedic source of information for the tropical Pacific. When a student or colleague asked for information on a little-known creature or location for which there seemed to be almost no information, he would always find in his files important articles from obscure sources. This book is dedicated to the memory of Lucius G. Eldredge (1938–2013). Lu was renowned for compiling files of every publication, including technical reports, grey liter- ature, and even newspaper and magazine articles, in existence on the marine fauna of Pacific islands, both by animal group and by island. The records of quantitative coral-reef surveys and monitoring pro- grams in the middle of the past century are especially valuable, but these were done before data were recorded electronically and have the potential to be lost. Lu compiled a number of bibliographies, one of which was a collection of all survey reports, technical reports and publications of all the Pacific Island coral-reef sites that had been surveyed or monitored. It is especially valuable for people who are about to do a survey of a coral-reef site to determine if there is a quantitative record for the same site decades previous. Hawai‘i is the only state for which there exists a complete listing of all described species. This results from Lu’s rigorous and relentless scouring of the literature. The annual Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey is a registry of all native and introduced species of plants and animals in the Ha - waiian Islands. Lu coedited the Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey since 1999 and was working towards publishing an update of this summary list of Hawaiian species when he passed away. Lu also coedited with the late Dennis Devaney two important volumes from the Reef and Shore Fauna series published by the Bishop Museum that covered 17 phyla of Hawaiian invertebrates. Hawai‘i is almost certainly the tropical geographic region for which the information on introduced marine animals and algae is most complete. Starting in the 1980s, Lu and James Carlton worked together to document and validate the sites of origin, the dates of introduction, and present day status of introduced marine and brackish water animals and algae. In 2009, they published this comprehen- sive inventory through the Bishop Museum entitled Marine Bioinvasions of Hawai‘i. As Lu diligently produced this project, he mentored students and colleagues in designing and acquiring funds for major research endeavors towards discerning previously undetected introduced marine species and determin- ing their effects on native communities. — Charles Birkeland Copyright ©Bishop Museum ISSN 0893-312X (print) Published online: 3 December 2014 ISSN 2376-3213 (online) 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface — Birkeland, C. ................................................................................................................. 1 Lucius G.

EVENHUIS Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice Street, Honolulu Hawaii 96817-2704, USA; email: [email protected] & JAMES T. CARLTON Williams College, Mystic Seaport, P.O. Box 6000, Mystic, Connecticut 06355, USA In May 2013 we lost a valued colleague and close friend. Lucius G. Eldredge (“Lu” to everyone he met) had lost his battle with a bad heart. Those who came from throughout the Pacific to attend his memorial service in Honolulu are a testament to the many friends and colleagues he had during his life and career. He touched the lives of many and was selfless in his frequently helping others with their needs, both academically and personally. His expertise was in his knowledge of all things Pacific, but primarily in marine biology and the history of virtually all islands in the Pacific. Early Years and Education Lucius Gilbert Eldredge III was born in East Greenwich, Rhode Island, on 1 March 1938, to Lucius Gilbert Eldredge, Jr. and Harriet (née House) Eldredge. He was the youngest of three children (his two older sisters are Charlotte and Harriet). Genealogy was one of Lu’s interests and the Eldredge clan could trace their ancestry in New England back to the Mayflower. Lu told many that Pocahontas was a relation of the Eldredge family; a large lithograph done in the 1880s of the marriage of Pocahontas and John Rolfe was proudly displayed
