Geological and Agricultural
SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GEOLOGICAL AND AGRICULTURAL SURVEY OF TEXAS, —BY— S. B. BUCKLEY, A. M., Ph. D., STATE GEOLOGIST. HOUSTON: a. c. gray, state printer. 1876. Second Annual Report of the State Geologist To His Excellency, Richard Coke, Governor of Texas: This second annual report of the geological and agricul- tural survey of the State, is respectfully submitted to your consideration. With many thanks for the aid you have given the work, I remain, yours truly, S. B. BUCKLEY, State Geologist. Introduction In the following pages I have given what I deem to be the most useful things pertaining to the agricultural and mineral resources of the State, which I have obtained during the past year, reserving much geological matter of scientific interestfor a final report. Since the last report, I have bought chemical apparatus sufficient to analyze mineral soils and mineral waters, which will be of great assistance in the future work of the survey. This appa- ratus has only been recently obtained. Austin, March 27th, 1876. 4 The Importance of Geology and Geological Surveys. I supposed that the importance of geology and geo- logical surveys was so well known and acknowleded that it would not be proper here to say anything about their usefulness. Nor should I allude to these things, had I not a few weeks ago, heard one who was called a leading member of the late Constitutional Convention, state in a public speech to that body, that "Geology is a humbug and he knew it to be so." It is strange that all the leading universities, colleges and schools of the civilized world have been teaching a humbug for the last 45 years; and still more strange, that all civilized countries, including every one of the United States, excepting Florida, have had or are having geolog- ical surveys made of their domains; also, the United States Government, during the last 15 years or more, has had and still continues to have geological surveys made of its territories. -

January 15, 2015 Below are: (1) a bibliography of works on western Atlantic marine mollusks appearing in the journal Avicennia . It includes a listing of all species-level taxa introduced in the cited paper. (2) An alphabetical list of taxa described (new 168, old 1), by family, in the cited papers. These databases are adapted from Gary Rosenberg's Malacolog 4.1.1 < http://www.malacolog.org/ > , and the latter was generated with major assistance from Peggy Williams of Tallevast, FL. Publication date refinement, orthographic emendations, synonymies, and generic reassignments are the work of Dr. Rosenberg. The purpose of this webfeature is to provide a searchable, Internet-linked resource now that the entirety of this discontinued journal (1993-2007) is available on-line at: http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/79640#/summary ************************************************************************************* Ardila, N.

Volvarina ryalli is compared with the V. ambigua (Bavay, 1913) / V. deliciosa (Bavay, 1913) complex from off northwest Africa and with V. angolensis (Odhner, 1923) from southern Angola. RESUMEN Se describe Volvarina ryalli spec. nov. del norte de la zona subecuatorial de Africa occi - dental, cuya área de distribución va desde el oeste de Liberia a la parte central de Ghana, y que se encuentra desde niveles infralitorales bajos hasta circalitorales altos.

1 Northwest Florida Species List
NORTHWEST FLORIDA SPECIES LIST This list, which contains shells found in the onshore and offshore waters of the Florida Panhandle, was prepared by the members of the Gulf Coast Shell Club. The list is arranged alphabetically by family. The numbers to the left of the shell name refer to the corresponding species as found in American Seashells, Second Edition by Dr R. Tucker Abbott. An asterisk indicates that a name change to the family, species, genus, (or all) has occurred since publication. Shells annotated with a superscript 1 indicate form names that may or may not be valid but are useful for identification. Shells annotated with a superscript 2 are shells from the 1994 Keeler and Robertson survey of the Apalachicola Marine Estuary and immediate offshore areas and represent species not currently held by GCSC members but that are deemed native to our area. Common name for the shell and its normal adult size range columns are included. There are 635 shells (including forms) on this list as of the latest update in March, 2013. Our thanks go to Dr. Harry Lee of the Jacksonville Shell Club for his assistance in this compilation. A caution: Any list of this type is subject to frequent name changes as the science involved progresses.
