  • Species Assessment for Jair Underwing
    Species Status Assessment Class: Lepidoptera Family: Noctuidae Scientific Name: Catocala jair Common Name: Jair underwing Species synopsis: Two subspecies of Catocala exist-- Catocala jair and Catocala jair ssp2. Both occur in New York. Subspecies 2 has seldom been correctly identified leading to false statements that the species is strictly Floridian. Nearly all literature on the species neglects the widespread "subspecies 2." Cromartie and Schweitzer (1997) had it correct. Sargent (1976) discussed and illustrated the taxon but was undecided as to whether it was C. jair. It has also been called C. amica form or variety nerissa and one Syntype of that arguably valid taxon is jair and another is lineella. The latter should be chosen as a Lectotype to preserve the long standing use of jair for this species. Both D.F. Schweitzer and L.F. Gall have determined that subspecies 2 and typical jair are conspecific. The unnamed taxon should be named but there is little chance it is a separate species (NatureServe 2012). I. Status a.

While each undergraduate is assigned an Advising Dean in the Center for Student Advising, pre-health professions students are also expected to work directly with a premed adviser throughout their time at Columbia. We hope that you find this booklet helpful and look forward to getting to know you! Medical education in the United States falls into three distinct stages: undergraduate studies, medical school, and residency training. The undergraduate education focuses on coursework which provides the foundational concepts necessary for your success in medical school. In addition to undergraduate coursework, premedical students are expected to test their motivation for a career in medicine by exposing themselves to different venues where clinical medicine is practiced. The content of medical school curricula is similar from program to program. However in recent decades, the structure for imparting that knowledge has undergone widespread reform. There is currently a good deal of difference in the way schools organize their four years of curriculum.

  • How Many Kingdoms of Life? Eukaryotic Phylogeny and Philosophy of Systematics
    How many kingdoms of life? Eukaryotic phylogeny and philosophy of systematics Łukasz Lamża Copernicus Center for Interdisciplinary Studies, Jagiellonian University Abstract According to contemporary understanding of the universal tree of life, the traditionally recognized kingdoms of eukaryotic organisms— Protista, Fungi, Animalia and Plantae—are irregularly interspersed in a vast phylogenetic tree. There are numerous groups that in any Linnaean classification advised by phylogenetic relationships (i.e. a Hennigian system) would form sister groups to those kingdoms, therefore requiring us to admit them the same rank. In practice, this would lead to the creation of ca. 25-30 new kingdoms that would now be listed among animals and plants as “major types of life”. This poses problems of an aesthetic and educational nature. There are, broadly speaking, two ways to deal with that issue: a) ignore the aesthetic and educational arguments and propose classification sys- tems that are fully consistent with the Hennigian principles of phylo- genetic classification, i.e. are only composed of monophyletic taxa; CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 b) ignore Hennigian principles and bunch small, relatively uncharac- • teristic groups into paraphyletic taxa, creating systems that are more 227 – convenient. In the paper, I present the debate and analyze the pros 203 and cons of both options, briefly commenting on the deeper, third resolution, which would be to abandon classification systems entirely. Philosophical Problems in Science (Zagadnienia FilozoficzneNo w Nauce) 66 (2019), pp. 204 Łukasz Lamża Recent advances in eukaryotic classification and phylogeny are com- mented in the light of the philosophical question of the purpose and design principles of biological classification systems.

  • Bio-Political Foundations for White Mountain Apache Natural Resource Control, 1945–1960
    humanities Article The White Mountain Recreational Enterprise: Bio-Political Foundations for White Mountain Apache Natural Resource Control, 1945–1960 David C. Tomblin Science, Technology and Society Program, University of Maryland, 1125 Cumberland Hall, College Park, MD 20742, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-301-405-0527 Academic Editors: Karen L Thornber and Tom Havens Received: 30 November 2015; Accepted: 25 January 2016; Published: 15 July 2016 Abstract: Among American Indian nations, the White Mountain Apache Tribe has been at the forefront of a struggle to control natural resource management within reservation boundaries. In 1952, they developed the first comprehensive tribal natural resource management program, the White Mountain Recreational Enterprise (WMRE), which became a cornerstone for fighting legal battles over the tribe’s right to manage cultural and natural resources on the reservation for the benefit of the tribal community rather than outside interests. This article examines how White Mountain Apaches used the WMRE, while embracing both Euro-American and Apache traditions, as an institutional foundation for resistance and exchange with Euro-American society so as to reassert control over tribal eco-cultural resources in east-central Arizona. Keywords: American Indian; White Mountain Apache; natural resource management; eco-tourism; glocalization 1. Introduction This is a story about the appropriation of science, technology, and capitalism as tools of liberation, a moment in White Mountain Apache history where the tide began to turn in their resistance to the cultural hegemony of the United States government. This story is as an opportunity to illustrate a particular way that a local, place-based non-Western community responded to a wave of globalization after World War II.
