With all of these forms of life, a way to deal with this vast array of life in a logical and useful manner is important. By having a way to group and categorise life, it allows scientists to discover where life has come from and how one species fits in with another in an attempt to encode the evolutionary history of life. This is what is called binomial classification. There are a number of ways life can be classified and a variety of methods to classify it. Biological classification is used to group living organisms, but even with this system only 1 million of the 7.7 million animals and only 43,000 of the 611,000 fungi have been classified. Methods of Classification Classical taxonomy: Looks at descent from a common ancestor, i.e. fossil evidence. It also looks at embryonic development, as well as physical characteristics.

  • Frogs and Toads of Rhode Island
    FROG & TOAD Chug-o-rum! Peep-peeep-peeep! Kraack-arrack! Frogs and toads thrive in the many ponds, forests , felds and open woodlands found on Audubon wildlife refuges.

  • The Case of the Missing Frogs by Bryan Hamilton Why Are There No
    The Case of the Missing Frogs By Bryan Hamilton Why are there no frogs in Great Basin National Park? Great Basin National Park seems like a perfect refuge for frogs, with plenty of water--ten perennial streams, hundreds of springs, and six alpine lakes, but apparently there are no amphibians. During 2002, an amphibian inventory was conducted within Great Basin National Park. Crews surveyed perennial streams, springs, and alpine lakes, but did not observe any adult amphibians, tadpoles, or egg masses. The reasons for this are unclear, but apparently frog distribution depends on more than just abundant water. Lack of suitable breeding habitat is a major limiting factor in amphibian distribution. Most amphibians require still or extremely slow moving water to lay their eggs in. High gradient streams in the Park do not provide appropriate breeding habitat. The hundreds of springs in the Park may provide this habitat, however, no amphibians were found at the dozens of springs surveyed this year. Isolation from source populations is another limiting factor. Streams leave the Park and then quickly disappear underground. Amphibian populations near the Park are not directly connected to these streams. Thus no corridors exist between the Park and nearby amphibian populations. One amphibian species that does not require aquatic corridors for migration is the Great Basin Spadefoot (Spea intermontana), commonly referred to as a "toad." Spadefoots are distinguished from "true toads" (members of the family Bufonidae) by a black wedge shaped spade on their hind feet, used for burrowing. Spadefoots move considerable distances over land during spring and summer rains, travelling to breeding sites.

    Possible Introduction Mechanisms, Movement Patterns, and Control Efforts of the Giant Toad (Rhinella marina) on Sanibel Island, FL Chris Lechowicz Director-Wildlife Habitat Management Program/Herpetologist Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation Giant Toad (Rhinella marina) • Also called the cane toad, marine toad, Bufo toad, faux toad. • Previously Bufo marinus • Native to Central America, South America, Mexico, and south Texas. • A true toad (Family Bufonidae) belonging to a group of Neotropical toads (beaked toads = Rhinella). • Largest Bufonid toad (up to 5.8 lb), but not the largest Anuran (frog) in the world. Notable Facts • They have very large paired parotoid glands containing Bufotoxin that is oozed out when harassed. • This milky toxin has killed household pets (dogs, cats) and numerous wildlife species when ingested. • There has been documented human fatalities from “toad- licking” and ingestion. • Eggs/larvae are toxic to wildlife. • Highly nocturnal Prey and Predators • They consume invertebrates, small rodents, birds, amphibians, reptiles , and plants. • They will eat non-living prey (small dead animals, dog and food, feces). • The are preyed on in their natural range by caimans (C. latirostris), certain species of fish, Possums (Didelphis species), meat ants, banded cat-eyed snake (Leptodeira annulata), and some species of ibis. • They can lay up to ~30,000 eggs a year.

  • About the Book the Format Acknowledgments
    About the Book For more than ten years I have been working on a book on bryophyte ecology and was joined by Heinjo During, who has been very helpful in critiquing multiple versions of the chapters. But as the book progressed, the field of bryophyte ecology progressed faster. No chapter ever seemed to stay finished, hence the decision to publish online. Furthermore, rather than being a textbook, it is evolving into an encyclopedia that would be at least three volumes. Having reached the age when I could retire whenever I wanted to, I no longer needed be so concerned with the publish or perish paradigm. In keeping with the sharing nature of bryologists, and the need to educate the non-bryologists about the nature and role of bryophytes in the ecosystem, it seemed my personal goals could best be accomplished by publishing online. This has several advantages for me. I can choose the format I want, I can include lots of color images, and I can post chapters or parts of chapters as I complete them and update later if I find it important. Throughout the book I have posed questions. I have even attempt to offer hypotheses for many of these. It is my hope that these questions and hypotheses will inspire students of all ages to attempt to answer these. Some are simple and could even be done by elementary school children. Others are suitable for undergraduate projects. And some will take lifelong work or a large team of researchers around the world. Have fun with them! The Format The decision to publish Bryophyte Ecology as an ebook occurred after I had a publisher, and I am sure I have not thought of all the complexities of publishing as I complete things, rather than in the order of the planned organization.

  • Green Heritage Spring 2010
    GREENMONMOUTH COUNTY PARK HERITAGE SYSTEM The Newsletter of Monmouth County’s Open Space, Parks & Recreation Agency Vol. 44 No. 1 Spring 2010 The Park System has been hosting fishing contests since the 1960s. One of the earliest is shown at Shark River Park, right, 1968. Compare that to the annual Fishing Derby at Out- door Expo in Turkey Swamp Park, 2007, above. Monmouth County’s “Best Idea” Turns 50 The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same n the last issue, we printed old photos that showed how county park facilities have changed over 50 years. Certain sites, like the beach at Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park for instance, saw the landscape utterly transformed. Not only were buildings relocated, docks (or Iwhat was left of them) removed, and new dunes built, but later a pavilion was added, a Skateplex was constructed and most recently, the playground was renovated—see below. Old photos of the parks also demonstrate the opposite trend: some things haven’t changed much at all in the last 50 years. People visit the parks and recreate in much the same ways now as they did in the 1960s (there are just many more people recreating).This may be due to the enduring nature of classic outdoor activities such as fishing, camping, hiking, and canoeing. And, with the possible exceptions of new technologies (cell phones with GPS, bird identification “apps,” fish-finders, etc.) and improvements to equipment , these activities look pretty much the same today as they ever did. See for yourself… Continues on p. 2 Chair Steals The Show At Exhibit New Playground!
