Carl Leavitt Hubbs Papers, 1920-1979. Collection 81-18 Accession No.: 81-18 PROCESSING RECORD SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY ARCHIVES ______________________________________________________________________________ Hubbs, Carl Leavitt 1894-1979 Carl Leavitt Hubbs Papers, 1920-1979 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: 276 boxes, digital video, slides (258 mss, 1/2 mss, 1/2 Lmss, 13 shoe boxes, 3 oversize) DESCRIPTION: Papers of Carl Leavitt Hubbs documenting his research in ichthyology, zoology, natural history, conservation, taxonomy, archaeology & paleoclimatology. The marine life series documents marine mammals & fish, arranged taxonomically. Includes photographs & films. The Hubbs Papers include correspondence, field notes, manuscripts, photographs, films, slides, audio tape recordings, newspaper clippings, data, references and other files generated by Carl Leavitt Hubbs, his wife and colleague Laura Clark Hubbs, his assistants and graduate students. The files include some personal and family material such as letters, photographs, and genealogical information, but consist predominantly of material documenting Carl Leavitt Hubbs' work as a naturalist and ichthyologist. Inclusive dates are 1860-1989, but the collection primarily consists of 1944-1979 material, the years that Hubbs worked at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Small quantities of material dated 1929-1944 document the years Hubbs spent at the Museum of Zoology at the University of Michigan. The collection contains material dated after Hubbs' death in 1979, representing work begun by Hubbs but completed by his colleagues, including Laura Clark Hubbs, Robert Rush Miller, Robert Wisner and others. The Hubbs Papers include the papers of individuals that Carl Leavitt Hubbs acquired over the years. For instance, when Hubbs arrived at SIO in 1944, he met Francis Bertody Sumner, who was retiring after a long career as a biologist at Scripps. After Sumner's death in l945, Hubbs disposed of Sumner's field notes and personal papers, but kept some material pertinent to his own research. For instance, Hubbs retained a field notebook entitled "F.B. Sumner Scripps Institution, La Jolla, California, Field Notes, 1939-1941" and added it to his papers in the Marine Life Series under the heading "Fishes: Western North America Freshwater, Localities: Great Basin, White River." Hubbs acquired some letters of Carl H. Eigenmann and Rosa Smith Eigenmann from their daughter when he wrote a biography of the latter. He filed these letters in the Subject Series under "Biographical Files: Eigenmann, Carl H." and "Biographical Files: Eigenmann, Rosa Smith." Hubbs was given some correspondence and field notes of SIO Diving Officer Conrad Limbaugh after Limbaugh's death in 1960. However, as he maintained the Limbaugh Papers in a file distinct from his own, the Limbaugh Papers were separated from the Hubbs Papers and accessioned as a separate collection in the SIO Archives. 81-18/2 The Hubbs Papers were maintained and organized by Laura Clark Hubbs. He determined file structure, headings and organization and she did the filing. Hubbs and others in his group depended upon Laura Hubbs to file and retrieve material from the Hubbs Papers. Over the years, Laura Hubbs was assisted in this work by a number of secretaries. In 1962, Elizabeth Noble Shor joined the Hubbs staff as Laboratory Helper. Elizabeth Shor's responsibilities eventually extended to the care of the files. When Shor became SIO Archivist and after Hubbs' death, she worked to some extent with Laura Hubbs to refine the arrangement of files in the Hubbs Papers. The Hubbs Papers are a very large collection arranged in an extremely complex manner. The files are divided into these series: Biographic Files, Manuscripts, Subject Files, Marine Life Files, Photographs, Films, Sound Recordings, Awards and Realia, Slides. Two of these series, the Subject Files and the Marine Life Files are divided into subseries. SERIES DESCRIPTION Biographic Files Series. 1912-1983 This series documents Carl Leavitt Hubbs' early life, education and career. The files include newspaper clippings, lists of awards and citations, curriculum vitae, genealogical information, biographies, and obituaries. Included is some correspondence. For instance, biographic files dated July-December 1944 include letters exchanged by Carl Leavitt Hubbs and Harald Ulrik Sverdrup discussing Hubbs' appointment at SIO. Manuscript Series. 1919-1977 This includes manuscripts of scientific papers and oral presentations by Carl Leavitt Hubbs. Undated papers are arranged alphabetically, followed by dated papers arranged chronologically. This series does not include manuscripts of every publication by Carl Leavitt Hubbs. Manuscripts of many of Hubbs scientific papers are filed in the Marine Life Series under the names of the species they describe. Original oversize figures for Hubbs manuscripts are stored in Hubbs oversize map cases. As Hubbs originally separated oversize figures from original manuscripts, there are no cross references from the original manuscript to oversize figures. Subject Files Series. 1881-1984 The Subject Series includes subject files arranged alphabetically. Subject headings include both direct and indirect headings. For instance, most of the material documenting Hubbs' participation in expeditions, cruises and field trips is filed under the heading Expeditions. However, material documenting his 1939 trip to Alaska as special investigator for the U.S. Department of the Interior is filed directly under the heading "Alaska, 1939." Marine Life Series. 1890-1990 The Marine Life Series includes field notes, observations and sightings, references, memoranda, counts and measurements of specimens, tag recovery data, expedition reports, colony census data, correspondence, manuscripts of papers, conference announcements and schedules and other 81-18/3 material documenting Hubbs' scientific work. These materials are filed under the name of the order, family, genus or species they concern. Items on a particular taxonomic unit are arranged within folders as follows: manuscripts, notes and data (arranged chronologically), photographs, references, newspaper clippings, and correspondence (arranged either chronologically or alphabetically). Fish units are numbered according to the "Alphabetical List of the Families of Fishes with their Group Numbers, After the Fish Division of the Museum of Zoology of the University of Michigan, Revised in April 1989." (see appendix at end of folder list) Files are arranged by group number within major geographic subseries: Fishes-World, Fishes-New World, Fishes-Atlantic, Fishes-Europe, Fishes- Asiatic Marine, Fishes-Indo-Pacific, Africa, Antarctica Fishes-Pelagic, Fishes-Middle American Freshwater, Fishes-South American Freshwater, Fishes-Eastern North American Freshwater, Western North American Freshwater and Hybrids. In order to locate a file on a specific species, one must first know its geographic location and its group number. Species names reflect the taxonomic order of the 1970's and have not been updated. Photographs Series. 1900-1980 This series is divided into several subseries: original prints, oversize prints, original negatives, lantern slides, and 35mm slides. Images are arranged chronologically within these subseries. All photographic images are stored with the Hubbs Papers except the 35mm slides which are filed in the SIO Archives slide cases under the accession number of the collection, 81-18. The Photographs Series does not contain all of the photographic images within the Hubbs Papers. Many original photographic prints are filed under the names of species in the Marine Life Series, and under the heading "Photographs" or under other headings in the Subject Files Series. Sound Recordings Series. 1950-1972 (21 recordings) Sound recordings are arranged chronologically. They include sound recordings made by Carl Leavitt Hubbs, recordings made by others and collected by Hubbs, and a few recordings of Hubbs. Films Series. 1955-1978 (22 films) Films are arranged chronologically. Awards and Realia Series. 1950-1978 The Awards and Realia Series includes a few objects, such as Carl Leavitt Hubbs' binoculars, plaques, certificates and other awards. These are arranged chronologically. The series does not include all certificates. Many certificates can be found in the Biographic Files Series filed under the name of Carl Leavitt Hubbs. 81-18/4 Slides Series 1964-1975 (481 2x2 slides) 481 slides from conferences and expeditions to Venezuela, Curacao, Canada, & Baja California. Includes Guadalupe Island, Bahia de los Angeles, Cedros Island, San Clemente Island, Santa Cruz Island, and Scammons Lagoon. In general, the Subject Series was designed to include files documenting Hubbs' faculty, consulting, committee and community work and subjects of general interest, while the Marine Life Series was designed to include files documenting his scientific research including field, laboratory and library work on specific species. There is, however, some overlap between these two large series. For instance, the Subject Series includes a heading entitled "Conservation/Preservation." This material includes references, reports, notes, correspondence and other papers on conservation and preservation of wildlife, and the creation and protection of parks, wetlands and preserves. The Subject Series includes a subseries on "Expeditions" that document Hubbs' expeditions and field trips, while the actual field notes and data resulting from those expeditions are filed under species headings in the Marine Life Series.

  • Finding Aid for Clark Hubbs Archive
    Inventory of the Clark Hubbs Papers, 1946-1999 The University of Texas at Austin – Texas Natural History Collections, Ichthyology Collection Completed by Sara D’Antonio - August 12, 2011 Extent: 24.5 linear feet Restrictions Boxes 57 and 58 contain restricted materials under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Abstract Dr. Clark Hubbs was a professor in the School of Biological Sciences, Section of Integrative Biology at The University of Texas at Austin, for his entire career, from 1949 until his death in 2008. He founded the University’s Fish Collection, which is now part of the Texas Natural History Collections and deposited more fish specimens than anyone else has, or likely ever will. Hubbs published over 300 articles during his career and his idea for a book on the fishes of Texas began the Fishes of Texas Project. The Clark Hubbs Papers measures 24.5 linear feet and includes research notes, reprints, field notes, manuscripts, and some student records dating from 1946-1999. History Dr. Clark Hubbs was born March 15, 1921, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to Carl Leavitt Hubbs and Laura Cornelia Clark Hubbs. His father was a noted ichthyologist, and the family revolved around fish. On vacations the family did fieldwork and all the Hubbs children were paid for collecting specimens: five cents per species, one dollar for a new species or subspecies, and five dollars for a new genus. Hubbs received his B.A. in Zoology from the University of Michigan in 1942, shortly after he was drafted into the army.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

Buser, B.Sc. Fairbanks, Alaska May 2014 v Abstract The sculpin subfamily Oligocottinae is a group of 17 nearshore species and is noteworthy for the fact that it contains both intertidal and subtidal species, copulating and non- copulating species, and many species with very broad geographic ranges. These factors, as well as the consistency with which the constituent genera have been grouped together historically, make the Oligocottinae an ideal group for the study of the evolution of a reproductive mode known as internal gamete association (IGA), which is unique to sculpins. I conducted a phylogenetic study of the oligocottine sculpins based on an extensive molecular dataset consisting of DNA sequences from eight genomic regions. From the variability present in those sequences, I inferred phylogenetic relationships using parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference. Results of these phylogenetic analyses show that some historical taxonomy and classifications require revision to align taxonomy with evolutionary relatedness.

    MARINE FISHES OF THE AZORES: AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST AND BIBLIOGRAPHY. RICARDO SERRÃO SANTOS, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS SANTOS, RICARDO SERRÃO, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS 1997. Marine fishes of the Azores: An annotated checklist and bibliography. Arquipélago. Life and Marine Sciences Supplement 1: xxiii + 242pp. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. ISBN 972-9340-92-7. A list of the marine fishes of the Azores is presented. The list is based on a review of the literature combined with an examination of selected specimens available from collections of Azorean fishes deposited in museums, including the collection of fish at the Department of Oceanography and Fisheries of the University of the Azores (Horta). Personal information collected over several years is also incorporated. The geographic area considered is the Economic Exclusive Zone of the Azores. The list is organised in Classes, Orders and Families according to Nelson (1994). The scientific names are, for the most part, those used in Fishes of the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean (FNAM) (Whitehead et al. 1989), and they are organised in alphabetical order within the families. Clofnam numbers (see Hureau & Monod 1979) are included for reference. Information is given if the species is not cited for the Azores in FNAM. Whenever available, vernacular names are presented, both in Portuguese (Azorean names) and in English. Synonyms, misspellings and misidentifications found in the literature in reference to the occurrence of species in the Azores are also quoted. The 460 species listed, belong to 142 families; 12 species are cited for the first time for the Azores.
