WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE, I9O5. LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY, Washington, D. C, July 00, 1905. SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith for publication a techni- cal manuscript entitled "The Determination of Generic Types, and a List of Round worm Genera, with their Original and Type Species", prepared by Doctors Stiles and Hassall. Medical, veterinary, and zoological literature has been inconven- ienced to no slight degree by changes in the technical names, due to a failure on the part of authors to designate type species for their genera. The present paper is prepared in tne hope of definitely fixing the types for the round worm genera, especially for those of impor- tance in human and comparative medicine, so that confusion in the future may be reduced. The adoption of a rule by the International Commission on Zoolog- ical Nomenclature to the effect that no new generic name may demand recognition in the future unless its author definitely fixes the type at its original publication is worthy of serious consideration, as such a rule would greatly simplify work. Respectfully, D. E. SALMON, Chief of Bureau. Hon. JAMES WILSON, Secretary of Agriculture. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS. Page. Summary 7 Part I.

S., Assistant in Zoology, Bureau of Animal Industry. SUMMARY. Part I contains a general discussion on determination of generic types. A genus without a type species is like a ship without anchor or rudder, and a failure on the part of authors to designate types has been one of the most fruitful sources of trouble in systematic zoology and nomenclature. The existing codes of nomenclature recognize the importance of type species, but the rules for their deter- mination are not explicit enough, while the views on the method of determination vary greatly among authors. It seems desirable, but at present impracticable, to have complete, objective rules covering type determination, whereby the subjective element may be entirely elimi- nated, and whereby all types may be determined purely from the literature, without reference to the diagnosis or anatomy of an animal. Page precedence, as supported by many systematists, would accomplish this, yet would lead to many difficulties; still it must be admitted that this rule has great advantages despite its disadvantages. Although it seems impracticable at present to attempt to adopt any complete series of rules on type determination which shall be followed seriatim, still satisfactory rules can be formulated which will cover the majority of cases that arise, and these rules may be supplemented by recommendations which bring to mind methods which it will be well to follow, unless strongly contraindicated by practical consider- ations. While urging zoologists to designate the type of every new genus proposed in the future, we shall suggest to the International Commission on Zoological Nomen- clature the following rules and recommendations, as amendments to the Code, for guidance in determining the types in the case of older genera. 1. RULE.—A genus proposed with a single original species takes that species as type. (Monotypical genera.) 2. RULE.—The type of a genus (containing, from the standpoint of the original author, both valid and doubtful species) must never be selected from the species which the original author of the genus clearly designated as species inquirendftt at the time of the publication of the generic name. 7 8 BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY. 3. RULE.—When in the original publication of a genus one of the species is definitely designated as type, this species should be accepted as type, regardless of any other considerations. (Type by original designation.) 4a. RULE.—If, in the original publication of a genus, typicus or typus is used as a new specific name for one of the species, such use shall be construed as "type by original designation." 4b. RECOMMENDATION.—It is well to avoid the introduction of the names typicus or typus as new names for species or subspecies, since such names are always liable to result in confusion later. 5. RULE.—If a genus, without designated type, contains among its original species one possessing the generic name as its specific or subspecific name, either as valid name or synonym, that species or subspecies becomes ipso facto type of the genus. (Type by absolute tautonymy.) 6. RECOMMENDATION.—If a genus, without designated type, contains among its original species one possessing as specific or subspecific name, either as valid name or as synonym, a name which is virtually the same as the generic name, or of the same origin or same meaning, preference should be shown to that species in desig- nating the type, unless such preference is strongly contraindicated by other factors. (Type by virtual tautonymy.) 7. RULE.—In case a generic name without designated type is proposed as a sub- stitute for another generic name, with or without type, the type of either when established becomes ipso facto type of the other. 8. RULE.—If an author proposes a genus, without designating a type, and includes among the original species [i. e., the valid species from his standpoint] the deter- mined type of an earlier genus, such type becomes ipso facto the type of the new genus.

There is, however, presently no study conducted on the endoparasites infestation in these fishes. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were to identify endoparasitic worms and examine the intensity level in skipjack tuna K. pelamis from Sibolga waters. Sampling was conducted in Debora Private Fishing Port, Sibolga from 4th to 18th June 2019 and a total of 20 fish samples with weight ranged between 740 g and 1.200 g and length from 37.2 cm to 41.4 cm were analyzed in the study. The identification of the worm was conducted in the laboratory using a stereo microscope. The results showed seven species or genera of worms were found in the intestine and stomach of the fish with varying level of intensity and incidence. For example, Echinorhynchus sp. was found with 100% intestinal and 10% stomach incidences at a total intensity of 8.5; Acanthocephalus sp. with 25% intestinal incidence and 1.6 intensity, Rhadinorhynchus sp. with 25% intestinal and 5% stomach incidences, and 1.5 intensity; Leptorhynchoides sp.

The main objectives were to produce a hierarchical classification of all life, both extant and fossil, to at least generic level (and to species as data were readily available) and to provide a tool to distinguish marine from nonmarine, and extant from fossil taxa. Over its first 10 years of operation IRMNG has acquired almost 487,000 of an estimated 510,000 published genus names (including both valid names and synonyms) in addition to almost 1.8 million species names, of which 1.3 million are considered valid. Throughout this time IRMNG data have been available for public query via a dedicated web interface based at CSIRO in Australia, as well as being supplied as bulk downloads for use by a range of global biodiversity projects. Over the period 2014-2016 responsibility for the system has been passed to the Data Centre Division of the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) in Belgium, which is continuing the maintenance and development of IRMNG at its new web location, www.irmng.org. With its present estimated holdings of >95% of all published genus names (plus associated authorities and years of publication) across all taxonomic domains, including fossil as well as extant taxa, within an internally consistent taxonomic hierarchy, IRMNG is at present uniquely placed to provide an overview of “all life” to at least generic level, to permit the discovery of trends in publication of genera through time, to provide preliminary information on the marine vs.

In the current context of threats of species extinction, access for taxonomists to biological material and information becomes crucial if the scientific community really aims at a better knowledge of biological diversity before it is severely and irreversibly impoverished.

  • A Quarter Century of Reptile and Amphibian Databases
    246 ARTICLES Herpetological Review, 2021, 52(2), 246–255. © 2021 by Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles A Quarter Century of Reptile and Amphibian Databases In 2020, the Reptile Database (RDB) and AmphibiaWeb (AW) Database have grown for a quarter century. More specifically, celebrated their 25th and 20th anniversaries, respectively. Here, we outline the similarities and differences of each project, their we briefly review their history and highlight the biodiversity operation and content, and review their histories, activities, informatics context in which AmphibiaWeb and the Reptile users, and shared challenges.
