Samples included mainly European collections, molecular phylogenetics selected GenBank accessions, and specimens of various North American taxa described by Smith (1972) and new taxa deposited at the Herbarium of the University of Michigan (MICH). Three additional taxa from Africa and Central systematics America were also included. Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood analyses of two loci (ITS and Tef-1α) independently taxonomy and together supported the monophyletic nature of the subsectionSpadiceogriseae , and identified nine statistically supported clades within the subsection. North American and European species often fell within the same clade, suggesting a relatively recent origin of the subsection or human induced intercontinental movement. While this study determines for the first time that the presence of a white veil is diagnostic for the entire subsection, very few morphological traits were associated with individual clades, but clades were often distinctively different in terms of habitat association, suggesting that trophic interactions may have driven the evolution of this group of fungi.

  • PIGMENTS Pigments Can Be Used for Colouring and Tinting Paints, Glazes, Clays and Plasters
    PIGMENTS Pigments can be used for colouring and tinting paints, glazes, clays and plasters. About Pigments About Earthborn Pigments Get creative with Earthborn Pigments. These natural earth and mineral powders provide a source of concentrated colour for paint blending and special effects. With 48 pigments to choose from, they can be blended into any Earthborn interior or exterior paint to create your own unique shade of eco friendly paint. Mixed with Earthborn Wall Glaze, the pigments are perfect for decorative effects such as colour washes, dragging, sponging and stencilling. Some even contain naturally occurring metallic flakes to add extra dazzle to your design. Earthborn Pigments are fade resistant and can be mixed with Earthborn Claypaint and Casein Paint. Many can also be mixed with lime washes, mortars and our Ecopro Silicate Masonry Paint. We have created this booklet to show pigments in their true form. Colour may vary dependant on the medium it is mixed with. Standard sizes 75g, 500g Special sizes 50g and 400g (Mica Gold, Mangan Purple, Salmon Red and Rhine Gold only) Ingredients Earth pigments, mineral pigments, metal pigments, trisodium citrate. How to use Earthborn Pigments The pigments must be made into a paste before use as follows: For Silicate paint soak pigment in a small amount of Silicate primer and use straightaway. For Earthborn Wall Glaze, Casein or Claypaint soak pigment in enough water to cover the powder, preferably overnight, and stir to create a free-flowing liquid paste. When mixing pigments into any medium, always make a note of the amounts used. Avoid contact with clothing as pigments may permanently stain fabrics.

  • Gamblin Provides Is the Desire to Help Painters Choose the Materials That Best Support Their Own Artistic Intentions
    AUGUST 2008 Mineral and Modern Pigments: Painters' Access to Color At the heart of all of the technical information that Gamblin provides is the desire to help painters choose the materials that best support their own artistic intentions. After all, when a painting is complete, all of the intention, thought, and feeling that went into creating the work exist solely in the materials. This issue of Studio Notes looks at Gamblin's organization of their color palette and the division of mineral and modern colors. This visual division of mineral and modern colors is unique in the art material industry, and it gives painters an insight into the makeup of pigments from which these colors are derived, as well as some practical information to help painters create their own personal color palettes. So, without further ado, let's take a look at the Gamblin Artists Grade Color Chart: The Mineral side of the color chart includes those colors made from inorganic pigments from earth and metals. These include earth colors such as Burnt Sienna and Yellow Ochre, as well as those metal-based colors such as Cadmium Yellows and Reds and Cobalt Blue, Green, and Violet. The Modern side of the color chart is comprised of colors made from modern "organic" pigments, which have a molecular structure based on carbon. These include the "tongue- twisting" color names like Quinacridone, Phthalocyanine, and Dioxazine. These two groups of colors have unique mixing characteristics, so this organization helps painters choose an appropriate palette for their artistic intentions. Eras of Pigment History This organization of the Gamblin chart can be broken down a bit further by giving it some historical perspective based on the three main eras of pigment history – Classical, Impressionist, and Modern.

    Chapter 3.3 Edgewater Public Elementary School Edgewater, FL Volusia County MPO November 2008 Volusia County MPO School Bicycle and Pedestrian Review Study, Phase 3B School Summary Edgewater Public Elementary School is located in a residential area bordered by a cemetery, railroad tracks and Hawks Park in the City of Edgewater. Few roadways within the walk zone include sidewalks. Of the 662 students attending this school, 316 live within the walk zone area. During the 2007/2008 school year approximately 90 of these students walked or rode bicycles to school. At afternoon dismissal, most of these students walk to the YMCA located adjacent to the school. At the time of this Study, there were two crossing guards located at U.S. Hwy. 1 and Ocean Avenue. For the 2008/2009 school year, one guard will be assigned to this location. The City of Edgewater provides a volunteer traffic control officer at the intersection of Ocean Avenue and Old County Road. During the period 2005 to 2007, one bicycle crash occurred on Park Avenue at the intersection with Flagler Avenue when a student was riding along the sidewalk and rode into a vehicle turning onto Flagler Avenue. Increased bicycle and pedestrian safety education is recommended for this school. The City of Edgewater has submitted funding requests for sidewalks along both sides of U.S. Hwy. 1 from Orange Avenue to Cory Drive on the east side, and from Ocean Avenue to Louisa Drive and from Turgot Avenue to Roberts Road on the west side. Students living south of Indian River Boulevard who attend Edgewater Public Elementary School are currently provided bus transportation due to designated courtesy conditions.
