THE GIANT PANDA (Ailuropoda Melanoleuca): a BIBLIOGRAPHY (1936-1994)
TITLE: THE GIANT PANDA (Ailuropoda melanoleuca): A BIBLIOGRAPHY (1936-1994). AUTHOR & INSTITUTION: Kay A. Kenyon, Librarian National Zoological Park Branch Smithsonian Institution Libraries Washington, DC DATE: November 1984 LAST UPDATE: January 1995 INTRODUCTION The following bibliography of the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is for the research scientist, but is useful for anyone interested in pandas. It includes popular as well as serious scientific works in foreign languages as well as in English. References cover all aspects of the giant panda--its discovery, evolution, physiology, anatomy, behavior, reproduction, feeding habits, and diseases. This bibliography is divided into four sections and is arranged alphabetically by author. Both articles and books are included. The first section begins in 1936 when the first giant panda, Su-Lin, was brought to the United States and covers the next two decades (1936-1956). The second section covers the next 20 years (1957-1977). During this period more giant pandas found their way to the Western World--Chi-Chi at the London Zoo, An-An at the Moscow Zoo, Ying-Ying and Pe-Pe at the Mexican Zoo. Chia-Chia and Ching-Ching at the London Zoo, and of course, our own famous pandas, Ling-Ling and Hsing-Hsing at the National Zoo*. The third section covers the years 1978-1989 and the fourth section begins in 1990 and brings us to the present. * Hsing-Hsing, the female panda at the National Zoo died of heart failure in 1993. 1936-1956 . page 2 1957-1977 . page 7 1978-1989 . page 14 1990-1994 . page 24 1 1935-1956 Allen, C.M. -
Arctic National Wildlife Refuge Volume 2
Appendix F Species List Appendix F: Species List F. Species List F.1 Lists The following list and three tables denote the bird, mammal, fish, and plant species known to occur in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (Arctic Refuge, Refuge). F.1.1 Birds of Arctic Refuge A total of 201 bird species have been recorded on Arctic Refuge. This list describes their status and abundance. Many birds migrate outside of the Refuge in the winter, so unless otherwise noted, the information is for spring, summer, or fall. Bird names and taxonomic classification follow American Ornithologists' Union (1998). F.1.1.1 Definitions of classifications used Regions of the Refuge . Coastal Plain – The area between the coast and the Brooks Range. This area is sometimes split into coastal areas (lagoons, barrier islands, and Beaufort Sea) and inland areas (uplands near the foothills of the Brooks Range). Brooks Range – The mountains, valleys, and foothills north and south of the Continental Divide. South Side – The foothills, taiga, and boreal forest south of the Brooks Range. Status . Permanent Resident – Present throughout the year and breeds in the area. Summer Resident – Only present from May to September. Migrant – Travels through on the way to wintering or breeding areas. Breeder – Documented as a breeding species. Visitor – Present as a non-breeding species. * – Not documented. Abundance . Abundant – Very numerous in suitable habitats. Common – Very likely to be seen or heard in suitable habitats. Fairly Common – Numerous but not always present in suitable habitats. Uncommon – Occurs regularly but not always observed because of lower abundance or secretive behaviors. -

Catholic Missionaries on China's Qinling Shu Roads
Catholic Missionaries on China’s Qinling Shu Roads: Including an account of the Hanzhong Mission at Guluba David L B Jupp URL: http://qinshuroads.org/ September 2012. Addenda & Corrigenda: November 2013, April 2015, July 2016 & January 2018. Minor edits January 2020. Abstract: The background to this document is found in the history of China’s Shu Roads that passed through the Qinling and Ba Mountains for many years. The roads have linked the northern and southern parts of western China since the earliest records and probably before. In all that time, the common description of the Shu roads was that they were “hard”. In the Yuan, Ming and Qing periods when China was open and accessible, foreign travellers visited the Shu Roads and some left accounts of their travels. Among the early travellers were Catholic Missionaries who moved into the west of China to spread Christianity. This document first outlines the historical environment of the open periods and then identifies various events and Catholic Priests who seem to have travelled the Shu Roads or have left descriptions that are of interest today. The main focus of this document is on the recorded experiences of Missionaries mostly from the Jesuit, Franciscan and Vincentian orders of the Catholic Church of Rome who travelled to the Hanzhong Basin. The main items include: Marco Polo’s (circa 1290) account of travels in China which many Priests who arrived later had read to find out about China; Jesuit Fr. Étienne Faber’s travels to Hanzhong in 1635; Jesuit Fr. Martino Martini’s description of Plank Roads in his Atlas of China in 1655; Franciscan Fr. -

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF (Systematic Botany) Curt Gerald Carlbom for the Ph.D. in Botany (Name) (Degree) (Major') Date thesis is presented July 28, 1966 Title A BIOSYSTEMATIC STUDY OF SOME NORTH AMERICAN SPECIES OF AGROSTIS L. AND PODAGROSTIS (GRISEB.) SCRIBN. & MERR. Privacy Abstract approved Redacted for (Major professor) A taxonomic investigation was made of 24 taxa be- longing to the section Trichodium (Michx.) Trin., of Agrostis, and the genus Podagrostis. Experimental methods were employed, including: uniform garden culture of trans- plants and plants grown from seeds collected in natural populations; breeding studies; physiological and pheno- logical investigations; cytological studies; ecological studies in natural populations. Herbarium exsiccatae including the type material of most of the 24 taxa were studied. In addition, compara- the tive morphological studies were made of several of taxa in their natural habitats and again in the uniform experimental garden. Twenty -four taxa are recognized in this study. Gen- eric and species descriptions, distributional maps, gen- eric and species keys, photographs of 23 taxa including several types, and photomicrographs of meiotic and mitotic figures of 12 taxa are presented. In addition, the vari- ous taxa are discussed individually, and the criteria and concepts used for species delimitation in Agrostis and Podagrostis are presented. Chromosome counts of nine species and two varieties of Agrostis and three species of Podagrostis are reported for the first time. Additional counts of other native taxa confirm earlier published counts. Eleven of the 19 species of Agrostis are hexaploids, four species are known to be tetraploids and two species are octoploids. -
