Various kinds of finding aids are needed to facilitate the use of these records, and the first step in the records-description program is the compilation of preliminary inventories of the material in the 270-odd record groups to which the holdings of the National Archives are allocated. These inventories are called "preliminary" because they are provisional in character. They are prepared.as soon as possible after the records are received without waiting to screen out all disposable material or to per­ fect the arrangement of the records. They are compiled primarily for in­ ternal use: both as finding aids to help the staff render efficient refer­ ence service and as a means of establishing administrative control over the records. Each preliminary inventory contains an introduction that briefly states the history and fUnctions of the agency that accumulated the records.

  • Biogeographical Homogeneity in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. II
    Vol. 19: 75–84, 2013 AQUATIC BIOLOGY Published online September 4 doi: 10.3354/ab00521 Aquat Biol Biogeographical homogeneity in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. II. Temporal variation in Lebanese bivalve biota Fabio Crocetta1,*, Ghazi Bitar2, Helmut Zibrowius3, Marco Oliverio4 1Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn, Villa Comunale, 80121, Napoli, Italy 2Department of Natural Sciences, Faculty of Sciences, Lebanese University, Hadath, Lebanon 3Le Corbusier 644, 280 Boulevard Michelet, 13008 Marseille, France 4Dipartimento di Biologia e Biotecnologie ‘Charles Darwin’, University of Rome ‘La Sapienza’, Viale dell’Università 32, 00185 Roma, Italy ABSTRACT: Lebanon (eastern Mediterranean Sea) is an area of particular biogeographic signifi- cance for studying the structure of eastern Mediterranean marine biodiversity and its recent changes. Based on literature records and original samples, we review here the knowledge of the Lebanese marine bivalve biota, tracing its changes during the last 170 yr. The updated checklist of bivalves of Lebanon yielded a total of 114 species (96 native and 18 alien taxa), accounting for ca. 26.5% of the known Mediterranean Bivalvia and thus representing a particularly poor fauna. Analysis of the 21 taxa historically described on Lebanese material only yielded 2 available names. Records of 24 species are new for the Lebanese fauna, and Lioberus ligneus is also a new record for the Mediterranean Sea. Comparisons between molluscan records by past (before 1950) and modern (after 1950) authors revealed temporal variations and qualitative modifications of the Lebanese bivalve fauna, mostly affected by the introduction of Erythraean species. The rate of recording of new alien species (evaluated in decades) revealed later first local arrivals (after 1900) than those observed for other eastern Mediterranean shores, while the peak in records in conjunc- tion with our samplings (1991 to 2010) emphasizes the need for increased field work to monitor their arrival and establishment.

  • Scacchi, Species Solecurtidae
    BASTERIA, 58: 35-40, 1994 Solecurtus multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835), a good marine bivalve species from the Mediterranean Sea (Bivalvia, Heterodonta: Solecurtidae) Paolo Mariottini 1 Istituto di Scienze Biochimiche, Universita di Parma, 1-43100 Parma, Italy Carlo Smriglio Via di Valle Aurelia 134, 1-00167 Rome, Italy & Cesare Ciommei Via Montebruno 12, 1-00168 Rome, Italy Solecurtus multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835) from the Mediterranean Sea is here reported as a bona fide species; the authors give additional data about its morphology, ecology and distribution. Key words: Bivalvia, Solecurtidae, Solecurtus, morphology, distribution, Mediterranean Sea, Italy. INTRODUCTION In the Mediterranean Sea the genus Solecurtus Blainville, 1824, is represented by three species: S. scopula (Turton, 1822), S. strigilatus (Linne, 1758) and S. multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835). The last taxon was based by Scacchi (1835) (and not Scacchi, 1834, according to Cretella et ah, 1992) on a fossil specimen collected near Gravina, Puglia (Italy). Here the original description is given: "Testa ovali-oblonga, subaequilatera, antice oblique striata, striis approximatis angulo acuto in/lexis. Lata lin. 8, alta lin. 3". In the description 'lin.' (which stands for linea) is a standard size unit. The one adopted by the authors of that time corresponded to 2.25 mm; but, in this case, it is also possible that 'linea' represents a local Sicilian size unit (1.8 mm) as reported by Giannuzzi-Savelli et al. (1986). The author clearly stated that this species differs from the fossil and Recent specimens of "Solene bianco del Renieri" candidus of S. and of [S.

  • IN ANTARCTICA Kathryn Yusoff Immoral Mapping In
    4. CLIMATES OF SIGHT: MISTAKEN VISIBILITIES, MIRAGES AND ‘SEEING BEYOND’ IN ANTARCTICA Kathryn Yusoff Immoral mapping In 1842, the Antarctic explorer Charles Wilkes stood trial by court-martial on the charge of “immoral mapping”. Wilkes faced an indictment of “Scandalous Conduct Tending to the Destruction of Good Morals” for his designation of land on January 19th, 1840, where there was none to be found. His claim was to have “discovered a vast Antarctic continent...”. Charge VI, Specification I, read as follows: “In this, that the said Lieutenant Charles Wilkes in his report, number 63, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated March 11th, 1840, did utter a deliberate and wilful falsehood, in the following words, to wit: “on the morning of the 19th of January, we saw land to the Southward and Eastward with many indicators of being in its vicinity, such as penguins, seal and the discolouration of the water; but the impenetrable barrier of ice prevented our nearing our approach to it”.1 The proceedings of the Court-Marshall record that Wilkes had made a false entry as to the date on which he sighted “Antarctic land”.2 On September 7th, 1842, the verdict was given: dropped as not proven. Although not charged, Wilkes’ reputation and authority as a purveyor of geographical truths was ruined. Later defenders of Wilkes’ reputation claimed that his’ “immoral mapping” could be explained by recourse to the particular atmospheric phenomena of the Antarctic region. In the strange Antarctic light, Wilkes had seen a superior mirage. Before Wilkes’ ‘designation of land’, several officers had also reported seeing land, but Wilkes initially dismissed these sightings as cloud shapes, or atmospheric fictions.
