The Surfperches)
UC San Diego Fish Bulletin Title Fish Bulletin No. 88. A Revision of the Family Embiotocidae (The Surfperches) Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3qx7s3cn Author Tarp, Fred Harald Publication Date 1952-10-01 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California STATE OF CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME BUREAU OF MARINE FISHERIES FISH BULLETIN No. 88 A Revision of the Family Embiotocidae (The Surfperches) By FRED HARALD TARP October, 1952 1 2 3 4 1. INTRODUCTION* The viviparous surfperches (family Embiotocidae) are familiar to anglers and commercial fishermen alike, along the Pacific Coast of the United States. Until the present, 21 species have been recognized in the world. Two additional forms are herein described as new. Twenty species are found in California alone, although not all are restricted to that area. The family, because of its surf-loving nature, is characteristic of inshore areas, although by no means restricted to this niche. Two species are generally found in tidepools, while one, Zalembius rosaceus, occurs in fairly deep waters along the continental shelf. Because of their rather close relationships, the Embiotocidae have been a problem for the angler, the ecologist, the parasitologist, and others, to identify and even, occasionally, have proved to be difficult for the professional ichthy- ologist to determine. An attempt has been made in this revision, to remedy this situation by including full descrip- tions based on populations, rather than on individual specimens, and by including a key which, it is hoped, will prove adequate for juvenile specimens, as well as for adults. -
Bird Observer
Bird Observer VOLUME 39, NUMBER 6 DECEMBER 2011 HOT BIRDS October 20, 2011, was the first day of the Nantucket Birding Festival, and it started out with a bang. Jeff Carlson spotted a Magnificent Frigatebird (right) over Nantucket Harbor and Vern Laux nailed this photo. Nantucket Birding Festival, day 2, and Simon Perkins took this photo of a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher (left). Nantucket Birding Festival, day 3, and Peter Trimble took this photograph of a Townsend's Solitaire (right). Hmmm, maybe you should go to the island for that festival next year! Jim Sweeney was scanning the Ruddy Ducks on Manchester Reservoir when he picked out a drake Tufted Duck (left). Erik Nielsen took this photograph on October 23. Turners Falls is one of the best places in the state for migrating waterfowl and on October 26 James P. Smith discovered and photographed a Pink-footed Goose (right) there, only the fourth record for the state.

Maq Rines took this photo of the cooperative bird in Wakefield. pw* A Western Grebe, located by Rick Heil on March 6, was regularly seen north or south of parking lot 1 at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge into April. Steve Mirick took this digiscoped image on March 31. A flock of five Lesser Yellowlegs managed to over-winter in Newburyport Harbor. Phil Brown took this photo at Joppa Flats on March 25. Stan Bolton was birding in Westport when he found this handsome Harris’s Sparrow. Phil Brown took this image of the bird on April 1 (no fooling). K f On April 14, Leslie Bostrom saw a Common (Eurasian) Kestrel on Lieutenant’s Island, S. Wellfleet. On April 18, Bob Clem found what surely must have been the same bird at the Morris Island causeway in Chatham. Blair Nikula took this digiscoped image the same day. This bird stayed for weeks, and was visited by birders from across North America. CONTENTS B irding the Pondicherry W ildlife Refuge and V icinity Robert A.

Bibliography of North American Minor Natural History Serials in the University of Michigan Libraries
BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH AMERICAN MINOR NATURAL HISTORY SERIALS IN THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN LIBRARIES BY MARGARET HANSELMAN UNDERWOOD Anm Arbor llniversity of Michigan Press 1954 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH AMERICAN MINOR NATURAL HISTORY SERIALS IN THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN LIBRARIES BY MARGARET HANSELMAN UNDERWOOD Anm Arbor University of Michigan Press 1954 my Aunts ELLA JANE CRANDELL BAILEY - ARABELLA CRANDELL YAGER and my daughter ELIZABETH JANE UNDERWOOD FOREWORD In this work Mrs. Underwood has made an important contribution to the reference literature of the natural sciences. While she was on the staff of the University of Michigan Museums library, she had early brought to her attention the need for preserving vanishing data of the distribu- tion of plants and animals before the territories of the forms were modified by the spread of civilization, and she became impressed with the fact that valuable records were contained in short-lived publications of limited circulation. The studies of the systematists and geographers will be facilitated by this bibliography, the result of years of painstaking investigation. Alexander Grant Ruthven President Emeritus, University of Michigan PREFACE Since Mr. Frank L. Burns published A Bibliography of Scarce and Out of Print North American Amateur and Trade Periodicals Devoted More or Less to Ornithology (1915) very little has been published on this sub- ject. The present bibliography includes only North American minor natural history serials in the libraries of the University of Michigan. University publications were not as a general rule included, and no attempt was made to include all of the publications of State Conserva- tion Departments or National Parks. -
Taxa of Charles Johnson Maynard and Their Type Specimens
THE CERION (MOLLUSCA: GASTROPODA: PULMONATA: CERIONIDAE) TAXA OF CHARLES JOHNSON MAYNARD AND THEIR TYPE SPECIMENS M. G. HARASEWYCH,' ADAM J. BALDINGER: YOLANDA VILLACAMPA,' AND PAUL GREENHALL' ABSTRACT. Charles Johnson Maynard (1845-1929) INTRODUCTION was a self-educated naturalist, teacher, and dealer in natural histOlY specimens and materials who con The family Cerionidae comprises a ducted extensive field work throughout FIOlida, the group of terrestrial pulmonate gastropods Bahamas, and the Cayman Islands. He published that are endemic to the tropical western prolifically on the fauna, flora, and anthropology of these areas. His publications included descriptions of Atlantic, ranging from southern Florida 248 of the 587 validly proposed species-level taxa throughout the Bahamas, Greater Antilles, within Cerionidae, a family of terrestrial gastropods Cayman Islands, western Virgin Islands, endemic to the islands of the tropical western Atlan and the Dutch Antilles, but are absent in tic. After his death, his collection of Cerionidae was purchased jOintly by tlle Museum of Comparative Zoo Jamaica, the Lesser Antilles, and coastal ology (MCZ) and the United States National Muse· Central and South America. These snails um, with the presumed primmy types remaining at are halophilic, occurring on terrestrial veg the MCZ and the remainder of the collection divided etation' generally witllin 100 m of the between these two museums and a few other insti shore, but occasionally 1 km or more from tutions. In this work, we provide 1) a revised collation of Maynard's publications dealing with Cerionidae, 2) the sea, presumably in areas where salt a chronological listing of species-level taxa proposed spray can reach them from one or more in these works, 3) a determination of the number and directions (Clench, 1957: 121).
