NICKLES INTRODUCTION The bibliography of North American geology, including paleon­ tology, petrology, and mineralogy, for the years 1925 and 1926 con­ tains publications on the geology of the Continent of North America and adjacent islands and on Panama and the Hawaiian Islands. It includes textbooks and papers of general character by American au­ thors, but not those by foreign authors, except papers that appear in American publications. The papers, with full title and medium of publication are listed under the names of their authors, which are arranged in alphabetic order. The author list is followed by an index to the literature listed. The bibliography of North American geology is comprised in the following bulletins of the United States Geological Survey: No. 127 (1732-1892); Nos. 188 and 189 (1892-1900); No. 301 (1901-1905); No. 372 (1906-7); No. 409 (1908); No. 444 (1909); No. 495 (1910); No. 524 (1911); No. 545 (1912); No. 584 (1913); No. 617 (1914); No. 645 (1915); No. 665 (1916); No. 684 (1917); and No. 698 (1918) -1 These have been cumulated under the title " Geologic litera­ ture of North America, 1785-1918," in Bulletin 746 (Part I, Bibliography) and Bulletin 747 (Part II, Index). The series has been continued in Bulletins 731 (1919-20), 758 (1921-22), 784 (1923-24), and 802 (1925-26). Names applied to geologic formations before 1901 were listed in Bulletin 191. Subsequent lists appear in the Bibliography of North American geology in Bulletins 162, 172, 188, 203, 221, 240, 271, 301, 372, 409, 444, 495, 524, 545, 584, 617, 645, 665, 684, 698, 731, 758, and 784. To ascertain whether a name has been used it is necessary to consult each of these lists. The time and labor required for this consultation make it practically prohibitive. The Geological Sur­ vey's committee on geologic names maintains a manuscript list of these names on cards in a single alphabet and will gladly furnish on request information as to whether any particular name is preoccupied. 1 The Surrey's stock of these bulletins is exhausted; most of those later than No. 301 may be purchased from, the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., to whom inquiries and orders should be addressed. 1 Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia: Proceedings, vols. 76, 77. Phila­ delphia, Pa.

  • Hyracodons and Subhyracodons Early Rhinoceros by Ryan C
    The Fossils of the White River Badlands http://whiteriver.weebly.com/hyracodons.html Hyracodons and Subhyracodons Early rhinoceros by Ryan C. The discovery of rhinoceros in the Badlands of the American West was very exciting, most people never suspecting that such primitive forms of rhinoceros existed in North America. Today, living rhinoceroses consist of four genera that contain five species. Two are found in Africa; three others are restricted to Asia. Most are browsing animals but the largest species, the white rhinoceros of Africa, is a grazer. All living species possess "horns" that are composed of keratinized hair which decomposes at death and are not normally preserved in the fossil record. Although most New World rhinoceroses did not have horns, the widely distributed, males of the pig-sized Menoceros of the early Miocene had a lateral pair of horns. In North America, "rhinoceroses" of three similar lineages appeared from Asia during the Middle Eocene. Consisting of hippo-like Amynodontidae, "running rhinos" or Hyracodontidae, and true rhinoceroses, Rhinocerotidae, only true rhinoceroses adapted and diversified enough to survive into the early Pliocene. Amynodontids entered North America during the Bridgerian NALMA. Apparently adapted for a warm humid environment typified by lush forests, most amynodontids physically and ecologically resembled the hippopotamus of Africa. Remaining undiversified, only four genera are recognized and three of them contain but a single species. The massive and best known species is Metamynodon planifrons, a form characterized by having massive teeth with large tusks that give it the appearance of a hippopotamus. Some skeletons were 10 ft in length. Due to their skull structure, some believe this group supported a proboscis similar to that of a modern tapir.

PARRIS SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO PALEOBIOLOGY • NUMBER 63 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge' was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discovenes In science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series; Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the f^arine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for senes publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscnpts are given substantive review.

  • Qeological Survey"
    of the Qeological Survey" U. S. Department of the Interior/Geological Survey USGS: INF-74-26 <R'2) foreword Established by an Act of Congress in 1879 and charged with respon­ sibility for "classification of the public lands, and examination of the geologi­ cal structure, mineral resources, and products of the national domain," the U. S. Department of the Interior's Geological Survey has been the Nation's principal source of information about its physical resources the configura­ tion and character of the land surface, the composition and structure of the underlying rocks, and the quality, extent, and distribution of water and min­ eral resources. Although primarily a research and fact-finding agency, it has responsibility also for the classification of Federal mineral lands and water- power sites, and since 1926 it has been responsible for the supervision of oil and mining operations authorized under leases on Federal land. From the outset, the Survey has been concerned with critical land and resource problems. Often referred to as the Mother of Bureaus, many of its activities led to the formation of new organizations where a management or developmental function evolved. These included the Reclamation Service (1902), the Bureau of Mines (1910), the Federal Power Commission (1920), and the Grazing Service (1934, since combined with other functions as the Bureau of Land Management). Mrs. Rabbitt's summary of the Sur­ vey's history in the following pages brings out well the development of these diverse activities and the Survey's past contributions to national needs related to land and resources. A sense of urgency has characterized much of the Survey's work since its inception.

    PALEOBIOLOGY OF ARCHAEOHIPPUS (MAMMALIA; EQUIDAE), A THREE-TOED HORSE FROM THE OLIGOCENE-MIOCENE OF NORTH AMERICA JAY ALFRED O’SULLIVAN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2002 Copyright 2002 by Jay Alfred O’Sullivan This study is dedicated to my wife, Kym. She provided all of the love, strength, patience, and encouragement I needed to get this started and to see it through to completion. She also provided me with the incentive to make this investment of time and energy in the pursuit of my dream to become a scientist and teacher. That incentive comes with a variety of names - Sylvan, Joanna, Quinn. This effort is dedicated to them also. Additionally, I would like to recognize the people who planted the first seeds of a dream that has come to fruition - my parents, Joseph and Joan. Support (emotional, and financial!) came to my rescue also from my other parents—Dot O’Sullivan, Jim Jaffe and Leslie Sewell, Bill and Lois Grigsby, and Jerry Sewell. To all of these people, this work is dedicated, with love. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank Dr. Bruce J. MacFadden for suggesting that I take a look at an interesting little fossil horse, for always having fresh ideas when mine were dry, and for keeping me moving ever forward. I thank also Drs. S. David Webb and Riehard C. Hulbert Jr. for completing the Triple Threat of Florida Museum vertebrate paleontology. In each his own way, these three men are an inspiration for their professionalism and their scholarly devotion to Florida paleontology.

  • Ecology, Planning, and River Management in the United States: Some Historical Reflections

Ecology, planning, and river management in the United States: some historical reflections. Ecology and Society 10(1): 34. [online] URL: http://www.ecologyandsociety.org/vol10/iss1/art34/ Research, part of a Special Feature on Riverine Landscapes Ecology, Planning, and River Management in the United States: Some Historical Reflections Martin Reuss1 ABSTRACT. River ecologists are also river-basin planners. However, their role in planning has developed slowly over the decades since the beginning of the 20th century. Three major factors explain this phenomenon. First, ecologists focused on plant and animal communities rather than on broader policy issues related to land settlement and water development. Second, the federal government, and most state and local governments as well, used mainly economic criteria to justify projects. Intangible benefits, including the value of species or an aesthetically pleasing landscape, drew relatively little attention. Third, the public generally favored development, especially during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Only after World War II did the public's position shift in favor of more preservation, as ecologists developed the concept of the ecosystem, large dam projects forced basin inhabitants from their homes, and chemical and nuclear pollutants threatened the environment. Also, urbanization increased support for the preservation of recreation sites and of streams undisturbed by human intervention. Meanwhile, partly through important advances in geomorphology and hydrology, ecologists acquired new tools to understand the land-water relationship within river basins. Neverthless, benefit-cost analysis continued to dominate federal water- resources planning, and organizational culture and competing or overlapping bureaucracies hampered rational water resources administration.

From dinosaurs to dyrosaurids (Crocodyliformes): Removal of the post- Cenomanian (Late Cretaceous) record of Ornithischia from Africa Abstract Ornithischian dinosaurs are uncommon elements in Late Cretaceous faunal assemblages of many Gondwanan landmasses, particularly Africa. The best-documented post-Cenomanian record of purported ornithischian body fossils from Africa consists of a left umeh rus, with associated cranial and costal fragments, from the Santonian-Campanian Quseir Formation of Kharga Oasis, Egypt (Fig. 1 ) (Awad and Ghobrial, 1966). We show that this specimen pertains instead to a dyrosaurid crocodyliform, and restrict known African ornithischian body fossils to pre-Turonian sediments.

In most species, the larvae of the final stage hibernate in a state of quiescence, pupate in spring and emerge as adults shortly thereafter. Hibernation starts when the temperature decreases, thus inducing quiescence in the larva. If the temperature decrease is withheld during the last hibernation, the larvae remain active and usually continue to molt, but will not pupate successfully in spring. Moreover, most of them will die prematurely and prior to that will often develop considerable pathomor- phological alterations of the eyes, sometimes also the antennae, some develop wing pads and occasionally even pathomorphological modifications of the last abdominal segments. Until now, this phenomenon in Raphidioptera has been inaccurately referred to as “prothetely”; how- ever, in reality, it represents “metathetely”.
