  • Waterfowl in Iowa, Overview
    STATE OF IOWA 1977 WATERFOWL IN IOWA By JACK W MUSGROVE Director DIVISION OF MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES STATE HISTORICAL DEPARTMENT and MARY R MUSGROVE Illustrated by MAYNARD F REECE Printed for STATE CONSERVATION COMMISSION DES MOINES, IOWA Copyright 1943 Copyright 1947 Copyright 1953 Copyright 1961 Copyright 1977 Published by the STATE OF IOWA Des Moines Fifth Edition FOREWORD Since the origin of man the migratory flight of waterfowl has fired his imagination. Undoubtedly the hungry caveman, as he watched wave after wave of ducks and geese pass overhead, felt a thrill, and his dull brain questioned, “Whither and why?” The same age - old attraction each spring and fall turns thousands of faces skyward when flocks of Canada geese fly over. In historic times Iowa was the nesting ground of countless flocks of ducks, geese, and swans. Much of the marshland that was their home has been tiled and has disappeared under the corn planter. However, this state is still the summer home of many species, and restoration of various areas is annually increasing the number. Iowa is more important as a cafeteria for the ducks on their semiannual flights than as a nesting ground, and multitudes of them stop in this state to feed and grow fat on waste grain. The interest in waterfowl may be observed each spring during the blue and snow goose flight along the Missouri River, where thousands of spectators gather to watch the flight. There are many bird study clubs in the state with large memberships, as well as hundreds of unaffiliated ornithologists who spend much of their leisure time observing birds.

While I am pleasedto be able to compli- ment him upon the discoverythat this entomologicalword "has no connectionwith the original •a}i•t," he is ntistaken in saying that •lbia and 25rabiaare not the sameword in ornithology; for ,4bia is simplya variantof 25rabia,introduced by Agassizupon a mistaken notion of the etymologyand correct form of Azara's name habia. If Dr. Stejnegerwill look in the Index of Gray's• Handlist',he will find both forIns in ornithology.

PRELIMINARY DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW BIRDS FROM MEXICO AND GUATEMALA IN THE COLLEC- TION OF THE UNITED STATES DEPART- MENT OF AGRICULTURE. BY E. W. NELSON. T•t• present paper is based upon specimensof Mexican and Guatemalanbirds obtained mainly by myself and my assistant, Mr. E. A. Goldman, during explorations conductedfor the Bio- logical Survey of the U.S. Department of Agriculture during the last five years. In addition to this collection, numbering between four and five thousand specimens,I have had free access to the National Museuln series of Tropical American birds for purposesof comparison. In the course of our work we have traversed Mexico from one end to the other, and have crossed the countrysix times from seato sea.

  • 150 Problem Set 4.Pdf
    CS103 Handout 15 Fall 2020 October 9, 2020 Problem Set 4 This fourth problem set explores set cardinality and graph theory. It serves as tour of the infinite (through set theory) and the finite (through graphs and their properties) and will give you a better sense for how discrete mathematical structures connect across these domains. Plus, you’ll get to see some pretty pictures and learn about why all this matters in the first place. Some of the questions on this problem set will assume you’ve read the online Guide to Cantor’s The- orem, which goes into more detail about the mechanics of the proof of Cantor’s theorem as well as some auxiliary definitions. Good luck, and have fun! Due Friday, October 16th at 12:00PM noon Pacific 2 / 6 Problem One: Cartesian Products and Set Cardinalities If A and B are sets, the Cartesian product of A and B, denoted A × B, is the set { (x, y) | x ∈ A ∧ y ∈ B }. Intuitively, A × B is the set of all ordered pairs you can make by taking one element from A and one ele- ment from B, in that order. For example, the set {1, 2} × {u, v, w} is { (1, u), (1, v), (1, w), (2, u), (2, v), (2, w) }. For the purposes of this problem, let’s have ★ and ☺ denote two arbitrary objects where ★ ≠ ☺. Over the course of this problem, we’re going to ask you to prove that |ℕ × {★, ☺}| = |ℕ|. i. Define a bijection f : ℕ × {★, ☺} → ℕ. The inputs to this function are elements of ℕ × {★, ☺}, so you can define your function by writing f(n, x) = ________________________ where n ∈ ℕ and x ∈ {★, ☺}.

MILLER Thc Allyn Foundation, Suite 712, Sarasota Bank Building, Sarasota, Florida Among the Hesperiidae collected by the Carnegie Museum-Catholic University of America expedition to eastern Mexico in January, 1966, were two short series of ap­ parently new hesperiine skippers. When the Allyn Mexican expedition was under­ taken in January and February, 1969, an opportunity was provided to obtain more specimens and to observe more closely the habits of these hesperiids. The combined series from the two trips comprise the type-series for the two new species below. Although perhaps not so many specimens nor species can be taken in Mexico during the temperate zone winter as might be collected during the summer months, many worthwhile species apparently are found only during January and February, or at least are most abundant during this time. These two new skippers are evidently among such "winter" butterflies.

  • Macromycetes of the NW Sorkapp Land, Spitsbergen Introduction
    POLISH POLAR RESEARCH 12 3 407^*17 1991 Barbara GUMIŃSKA1, Zofia HEINRICH2 and Maria OLECH1 1 Institute of Botany Jagiellonian University Lubicz 46 31-512 Kraków, POLAND 2 W. Szafer Institute of Botany Polish Academy of Sciences Lubicz 46 31-512 Kraków, POLAND Macromycetes of the NW Sorkapp Land, Spitsbergen ABSTRACT: This paper reports the species of macromycetes collected on NW Sórkapp Land, Spitsbergen: all the species are new to the area. Brief notes on taxonomy, ecology and distribution of the species are provided. Key words: Arctic, Spitsbergen, macromycetes. Introduction Several papers on Spitsbergen's fungi already appeared, among others those by Karsten (1872), Dobbs (1942), Skirgiełło (1961), Harmaja (1984), Gulden (1987 a. b). Huhtinen (1987). However, our knowledge on the macromycetes flora and their distribution in Spitsbergen is still insufficient. This paper is the contribution to the knowledge of higher fungi of Sórkapp Land from where any data have been announced up to the present. The material reported here was collected by the third of the authors during two expeditions of the Jagiellonian University to Sórkapp Land (Spitsbergen) in the years 1982 and 1985. Investigations were carried out within complex studies of the natural environment of the area, co-ordinated by the Laboratory of Polar Research of the Institute of Geography of the Jagiellonian University. The description of the vegetation of NW Sórkapp Land is given in the paper by Dubiel and Olech (1990). Geographical position of the investigated area and a sketch of its topography are presented in Fig. 1. Fig. 1.
