  • Black Oystercatchers Anna Weinstein
    Volume 60, Number 4 December 2014/January 2015 Black Oystercatchers ª Anna Weinstein The Black Oystercatcher is the charis- matic, signature bird of the rocky intertidal zone, one of California’s and the west coast’s iconic habitats. Commonly seen yet globally rare, there is no mistaking its bright orange beak or distinctive call. There are thought to be no more than 12,000 of these birds ranging from the Aleutian Islands through Baja. The species is utterly dependent on rocky intertidal habitats, plying limpets, snails, mussels and other invertebrates from marine terraces and rocky shorelines. Despite the popularity of Oystercatch- ers, until recently little was known of its demography (status and distribution) in California. It is a Special Status Species of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service due to its rarity and vulnerability to a number of threats.

    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XV SECOND MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF ROBERT RIDGWAY 1850-1929 BY ALEXANDER WETMORE PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1931 ROBERT RIDGWAY 1850-1929 BY ALEXANDER WETMORE Robert Ridgway, member of the National Academy of Science, for many years Curator of Birds in the United States National Museum, was born at Mount Carmel, Illinois, on July 2, 1850. His death came on March 25, 1929, at his home in Olney, Illinois.1 The ancestry of Robert Ridgway traces back to Richard Ridg- way of Wallingford, Berkshire, England, who with his family came to America in January, 1679, as a member of William Penn's Colony, to locate at Burlington, New Jersey. In a short time he removed to Crewcorne, Falls Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where he engaged in farming and cattle raising. David Ridgway, father of Robert, was born March 11, 1819, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. During his infancy his family re- moved for a time to Mansfield, Ohio, later, about 1840, settling near Mount Carmel, Illinois, then considered the rising city of the west through its prominence as a shipping center on the Wabash River. Little is known of the maternal ancestry of Robert Ridgway except that his mother's family emigrated from New Jersey to Mansfield, Ohio, where Robert's mother, Henrietta James Reed, was born in 1833, and then removed in 1838 to Calhoun Praifle, Wabash County, Illinois. Here David Ridgway was married on August 30, 1849. Robert Ridgway was the eldest of ten children.

    130 LVol.[ Auk• IN MEMORIAM: CLINTON HART MERRIAM BY T. S. PALMER CLINTONHART MERRIAM,son of Clinton Levi and Mary Hart Mer- riam, a Founder, Secretary, Treasurer, Councillor, past President, and Patron of the American Ornithologists' Union, died in Berkeley, California, March 19, 1942, at the age of 86. Twenty years of his life were spent in education and preparation for his life work, 4 in the practice of medicine, 25 in public service, and nearly 32 in retirement. Although well past fourscore years, he constantly lamented that life was too short. He was, in fact, a human dynamo of energy and progressedrapidly from one field to another in his knowledge and interests. He was the eldest of a family of three children and was born in New York City, December 5, 1855, was educated by private tutors, and in 1872 was appointed naturalist of the Hayden Survey of Yellow- stone Park. He was a student at the Sheffield Scientific School at Yale and graduatedfrom the Collegeof Physiciansand Surgeonsin New York in 1879. Among his classmateswere A. K. Fisher, who soon gave up medicine for ornithology, and E. A. Mearns, the only one of the group who as an Army surgeoncontinued in the practice of his profession. While still a medical student he joined with others in founding the Linnaean Society of New York and was elected its first president. During the next few years he practiced medicine in Locust Grove, N.Y., and later made a trip to the Newfoundland sealing grounds as surgeon on the U.S. Fish CommissionSteamer "Proteus."

  • Changes in the Bird Community of the Lower Truckee River, Nevada, 1868 - 2001
    Great Basin Birds 5(1) 2002, pp. 13–20 © 2002 by the Great Basin Bird Observatory Changes in the bird community of the lower Truckee River, Nevada, 1868 - 2001 ELISABETH M. AMMON Great Basin Bird Observatory One East First St. #501, Reno, NV 89501 In the summer of 1868, when the young Robert Ridgway set out to collect birds in the thickets along the lower Truckee River, the possibility that his would be the last inventory before many species disappeared from the area might have seemed unlikely. Yet, his three-week stay produced perhaps the most informative set of data on the magnitude of losses incurred in native bird communities during the early 1900s, the period when western rivers were "tamed." Ridgway documented 107 bird species during his visit, ranking them in abundance from "abundant" to "rare" (Ridgway 1877). Although these ranks were assigned subjectively, the changes that were about to occur were so radical that even subjective estimates would shed light on the restructuring of the bird community that followed. DEGRADATION OF THE TRUCKEE RIVER ECOSYSTEM As settlers expanded into the Truckee Meadows in the second half of the 19th century, they began to harvest the riparian forest and converted much of the floodplain into agricultural lands. After the turn of the 20th century, the Newlands water project began to divert much of the Truckee River’s flows for agricultural operations in another basin. Frequently, the river bed became dry during the hottest part of the year. In the 1940s, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood control project straightened and deepened the river channel through most of the lower reaches.

RICHARD RATHBUN. LESTER F. WARD. INTRODUCTORY NOTE. This volume of Proceedings is published in obedience to the vote of the Society, passed May 26, 1882. The Biological Soci- ety of Washington was organized December 3, 1880, and at the time of its summer adjournment, in 1882, carries upon its roll the names of one hundred and thirty-nine active members, one hon- orary member, and twenty corresponding members. It has held thirty-one regular meetings, three special meetings, and one field meeting. At its regular meetings fifty-four communications have been presented, nearly all of which, except informal verbal com- munications, have already been published, as is indicated in the bibliographical foot notes. It has inaugurated and, in conjunction with the Anthropological Society, carried on a course of eight popular scientific lectures, four of which were delivered in its special behalf, and all of which were delivered by its members. The meetings of the Society have always been held in rooms provided by the courtesy of the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution ; the first fifteen in the Regents' Room of the Smith- sonian Institution ; the sixteenth to the twenty-fourth in the Archive Room of the National Museum ; the subsequent meetings in the Lecture Room of the Museum. In preparing the proceedings of the Society for publication, the Secretaries have omitted the record of the election of members from the minutes of the several meetings, the information there contained being presented in a much more convenient form in the " List of Members."
