    OCCASIONAL PAPERS OF BERNICE P. BISHOP MUSEUM HONOLULU, HAWAII I Volume XX August 29, 1951 NumJ>er 13 Some Central Pacific Crustaceans By CHARLES HOWARD EDMONDSON BERNIce P. BtSHOJ' MOSEtrM INTRODUCTION The following report on crustaceans selected from materia1lwhich has accumulated in Bishop Museum for several years inc1uder (1), new species, (2) known species as new Hawaiian records, an,(i (3) known species rarely recorded in the central Pacific. Recently, valuable collections have been received as a result of the current dredging operations of the M alliin, a boat of the Fi hand Game Division, Territorial Board of Agriculture and Forestry. These collections clearly reveal the presence of a crustacean fauna a ut the Hawaiian Islands. at depths of about 10 fathoms and beyond, which is not seen on the shallow reefs. Many of the unique species taken nearly 50 years ago by the Albatross of the United States Fis Com~ mission have again been brought to view. Other rare crustaceans recorded in the report were receive1 from the Honolulu Aquarium and came from fish traps operated b~ com­ mercial fishermen off the coast of Oahu at depths ranging aro~nd 16 fathoms. These specimens show that fauna at these depths har close affinities with that of the western Pacific and the Indian Ocej. It is well known that many organisms, both land and marine ~orrns, have been introduced into the Hawaiian area within recent I.years, chiefly as a result of war activities. Ocean-going craft returning to Hawaii from forward areas in the Pacific transport on theil' hulls marine organisms not previously recognized among local shore fauna, and some of these inunigrants become established in the new e9viron­ ment.

  • Dancing on Terra -- with Terror: Disciplines Reframing Terrifying
    Alternative view of segmented documents via Kairos 20th March 2004 | Draft Dancing on Terra -- with Terror Disciplines reframing terrifying relationships -- / -- Introduction Since the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, the response has been framed in strictly binary logic: " You are either with us, or you are against us". All governments and peoples of the world are urged to engage in the "war against terrorism" -- in defence of the highest values of civilization. The focus of this war, and any response to further attacks, is on how to stop terrorists. Stopping terrorists is framed as a question of capturing any who may be suspect (whatever the evidence), incarcerating them (without trial), or killing them (whether in military action or through covert assassination). The resources devoted to remedy the impoverishment and injustice, which many recognize as a breeding ground for terrorists, have diminished at a rate commensurate with the increase in resources allocated to "security", whether in the form of military equipment, surveillance, or the associated personnel. Very little effort is made, or called for -- by the media, politicians or engaged groups -- to look beyond the immediate action of terrorists to address the conditions that give rise to them. The focus of conceptual and financial resources is on proximate causes of violence and not on the contextual causes which willl continue to ensure that new terrorists emerge. The following explores the possibility that many disciplines, representing the core intellectual achievement of modern civilization, have developed conceptual approaches that reframe the crude simplicity of the current focus on proximate causes of terrifying relationships.

  • Hydrothermal Vents in the Lau Basin
    Bull. Mus. natl. Hist. nat., Paris, 4e sér., 17, 1995 section A, n" 3-4 : 221-243. A new sessile barnade (Cirripedia, Brachylepadomorpha) from the Lau Back-Arc Basin, Tonga; fïrst record of a living représentative since the Miocène by William A. NEWMAN & Toshiyuki YAMAGUCHI Abstract. — An extant représentative of the Brachylepadomorpha, Neobrachylepas relica gen. et sp. nov., has been discovered associated with hydrothermal vents in the Lau Basin. The suborder, comprising the earliest sessile barnacles, appeared in the Jurassic. It underwent a modest diversification before the close of the Cretaceous, when it began to décline concomitant with the origin and diversification of the modem sessile barnacles (Ver- rucomorpha and Balanomorpha) as well as certain shell-crushing predators, and it has been absent from the fossil record since the Miocène. Thus Neobrachylepas is unique among previously known hydrothermal vent barnacles, Neolepas (Scalpellomorpha), Neoverruca (Verrucomorpha) and Eochionelasmus (Balanomorpha), in being the only known living member rather than simply the most primitive living member of its respective suborder. The Lau Basin fauna includes représentatives of ail four of thèse suborders and therefore represents the most diverse cirriped fauna of any known hydrothermal vent community. Keywords. — Mesozoic relies, hydrothermal vents, center of diversity. Un nouveau cirripède sessile (Cirripedia, Brachylepadomorpha) de l'arc postérieur du bassin de Lau, Tonga; première observation d'un représentant vivant de ce groupe non signalé depuis le Miocène Résumé. — Un représentant actuel des Brachylepadomorpha, Neobrachylepas relica, n. gen., n. sp., a été découvert dans les sources hydrothermales du bassin de Lau. Le sous-ordre, comprenant les cirripèdes les plus anciens, est apparu au Jurassique.

Vol. 1 No. 1 June 1, 2020 pp. 1- 27 SOCIETY OF MEDICAL ARTHROPODOLOGY: PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES, AND THE SCIENCE OF MEDICAL ARTHROPODOLOGY Prof. Dr B.K. Tyagi President SOMA & Advisor, SpoRIC, VIT Univ., Vellore, TN, India Email: [email protected] This is an irony that even after more-than-a century of birth the science of medical arthropodology continues to be appreciated and taught in universities all over the world under a wider umbrella of globally recognized discipline of Medical Entomology, albeit the latter being only a branch of the mother science, Medical Arthropodology which comprises, besides medical entomology, also medical acariology, medical myriapodology and medical carcinology. Despite the fact that vectors of human and animal diseases and pests of varied distresses are distributed among all four major classes of Arthropoda, it is however generally the discipline of medical entomology which grabs the centerstage of attention in both university and medical college syllabi, and the non-insectan arthropods such as mites and ticks (medical acariology), which are often serious disease transmitters, are but marginally explained. Medical arthropodology, the mother science at the phylum level, originated when Manson (1878), serving as a medical officer in Taiwan, first hypothesized about the relationship between human lymphatic filariasis and the mosquito, Culex pipiens, giving per se birth to the great science of ‘medical entomology’. Sooner Ross (1897; Tyagi et al., 2020), while serving in British India Medical Service in Secunderabad, discovered for the first time the inextricable link between mosquito (possibly Anopheles stephensi) and malaria, and Grassi (1898), a renowned scientist and academician in Italy, independently and unequivocally demonstrated that it was anopheline mosquitoes (Anopheles sacharovi and An.

  • Darwin-Inspired Learning
    Darwin-Inspired Learning Boulter.indb i 9/23/2014 7:10:21 PM NEW DIRECTIONS IN MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE EDUCATION Volume 28 Series Editors Wolff-Michael Roth, University of Victoria, Canada Lieven Verschaffel, University of Leuven, Belgium Editorial Board Angie Calabrese-Barton, Teachers College, New York, USA Pauline Chinn, University of Hawaii, USA Brian Greer, Portland State University, USA Lyn English, Queensland University of Technology Terezinha Nunes, University of Oxford, UK Peter Taylor, Curtin University, Perth, Australia Dina Tirosh, Tel Aviv University, Israel Manuela Welzel, University of Education, Heidelberg, Germany Scope Mathematics and science education are in a state of change. Received models of teaching, curriculum, and researching in the two fields are adopting and developing new ways of thinking about how people of all ages know, learn, and develop. The recent literature in both fields includes contributions focusing on issues and using theoretical frames that were unthinkable a decade ago. For example, we see an increase in the use of conceptual and methodological tools from anthropology and semiotics to understand how different forms of knowledge are interconnected, how students learn, how textbooks are written, etcetera. Science and mathematics educators also have turned to issues such as identity and emotion as salient to the way in which people of all ages display and develop knowledge and skills. And they use dialectical or phenomenological approaches to answer ever arising questions about learning and development in science and mathematics. The purpose of this series is to encourage the publication of books that are close to the cutting edge of both fields. The series aims at becoming a leader in providing refreshing and bold new work—rather than out-of-date reproductions of past states of the art—shaping both fields more than reproducing them, thereby closing the traditional gap that exists between journal articles and books in terms of their salience about what is new.
