  • Swierstra's Francolin Francolinus Swierstrai
    abcbul 28-070718.qxp 7/18/2007 2:05 PM Page 175 Swierstra’s Francolin Francolinus swierstrai: a bibliography and summary of specimens Michael S. L. Mills Le Francolin de Swierstra Francolinus swierstrai: bibliographie et catalogue des spécimens. Le Francolin de Swierstra Francolinus swierstrai, endémique aux montagnes de l’Angola occidental, est considérée comme une espèce menacée (avec le statut de ‘Vulnérable’). En l’absence d’obser- vations entre 1971 et 2005, nous connaissons très peu de choses sur cette espèce. Cette note résume l’information disponible, basée sur 19 spécimens récoltés de 1907 à 1971, et présente une bibliographie complète, dans l’espoir d’encourager plus de recherches sur l’espèce. Summary. Swierstra’s Francolin Francolinus swierstrai is the only threatened bird endemic to the montane region of Western Angola. With no sightings between 1971 and August 2005, knowl- edge of this species is very poor. This note presents a summary of available information, based on 19 specimens collected between 1907 and 1971, and provides a complete bibliography, in order to encourage further work on this high-priority species. wierstra’s Francolin Francolinus swierstrai (or SSwierstra’s Spurfowl Pternistis swierstrai) was last recorded in February 1971 (Pinto 1983), until its rediscovery at Mt Moco in August 2005 (Mills & Dean in prep.). This Vulnerable species (BirdLife International 2000, 2004) is the only threatened bird endemic to montane western Angola, an area of critical importance for biodiver- sity conservation (Bibby et al. 1992, Stattersfield et al. 1998). Swierstra’s Francolin has a highly fragmented range of c.18,500 km2 and is suspected, despite the complete lack of sightings for more than 30 years, to have a declining population estimated at 2,500–9,999.

  • ABSTRACT BROADHURST, CHRISTOPHER JAMES. the Silent
    ABSTRACT BROADHURST, CHRISTOPHER JAMES. The Silent Campus Speaks: North Carolina State University and the National Student Protest, May 1970. (Under the direction of Paul Umbach). May 1970 became a pivotal moment in higher education. In that month, the backlash over two events, the announcement of the American invasion of Cambodia and the National Guard killing four Kent State University students protesting that military offensive, triggered the largest student protest in history. Across the nation, hundreds of thousands of students protested on hundreds of campuses. The scale of the reactions shocked America. This work explores the development of a student protest subculture at North Carolina State University and connects the campus’s outburst of student activism to the national student protests of May 1970. The images from campuses such as Berkeley, Wisconsin, or Columbia during the late 1960s has helped propagate the myth that student activism dominated college life in the period. While some campuses, particularly elite universities, did possess active protest cultures, many of the nation’s colleges and universities leaned more toward conservatism. Yet even on these conservative campuses, as the 60s progressed, student activism began to gain a stronger presence. Students increasingly voiced their concerns over national issues, such as civil rights or the Vietnam War, and challenged long-standing doctrines of in loco parentis. By placing one campus, North Carolina State University, within the broader national context, this research

Lance has served in this capacity for more than eight years, through some very trying financial times, and has done so with ingenuity and good humor. In spite of his heavy administrative duties, Lance maintained high scientific productivity and an ongoing commitment to education. In 2009 he co-authored Gems and Gemstones: Timeless Natural Beauty of the Mineral World, a gorgeous, popular-market companion volume to the renovated Grainger Hall of Gems. The next year he published a massive volume resulting from untold years of research, An Empirical Synthetic Pattern Study of Gars (Lepisosteiformes) and Closely Related Species, Based Mostly on Skeletal Anatomy: The Resurrection of Holostei. This study, together with his earlier volume on the Amiid fishes, recalibrates the morphological base data for evolutionary studies of the ray-finned fishes, and serves as a model for future evolutionary research. At present, he is putting the finishing touches on another popular-oriented book, this one on the Fossil Butte Member of the Green River Formation in Wyoming, which boasts an amazing array of beautifully preserved plants and animals—“snapshots in stone” of a 52-million-year-old tropical lake community.

  • The African Crowned Cranes
    THE AFRICAN CROWNEDCRANES LAWRENCE H. WALMNSHAW OUR Crowned Cranes have been described, all from Africa. They belong F to the family Gruidae and the subfamily Balearicinae which contains only one genus, Balearica. The characters are: bill shorter than the head; nostrils oval; a tuft of straw-like feathers on the nape; no convolutions of the trachea within the sternum. Brasil (1913, in Wytsman), Jackson (1938)) Chapin (1939), Roberts (1951)) and Vincent (1952) classified the Crowned Cranes of east and South Africa as Balearica regulorum. Peters (1934) and Benson (1960) classified them all under Balearica pavonina. I am separating the two groups (see Fig. 1). Allan Brooks, Jr. (verbal) stated that there is a gradual intergradation in general body plumage and face markings of cranes across Uganda, from Lake Victoria to the Sudan border, but I have been unable to find enough specimens to show this. The cranes about Entebbe, Uganda, and from Kenya, however, are much larger and lighter colored than those in Sudan. In the Sudan Crowned Crane about one-third of the upper portion of the cheek patch is colored white while the lower portion is pink or reddish. In the East and South African Crowned Cranes, often the cheek patch is entirely white, and again there is a narrow half-moon shaped upper portion of bright red, possibly an age character. In many ways the Sudan and West African Crowned Cranes are similar to those from East and South Africa; in many other ways? they are much different. KEY TO THE CROWNED CRANES A. Upper one-third to one-half of the bare cheek patch white, the lower portion pink.

  • Lloyd Neighbors
    The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project LLOYD NEIGHBORS Interviewed by: David Reuther Initial interview date: February 6th, 2013 Copyright 2014 ADST Q: Today is the 6th of February, 2013. This is an interview for the Association of Diplomatic Studies and Trainings Oral History Program. We’re talking to Lloyd Neighbors this morning. I’m David Reuther. Lloyd, let’s start with where you were born and what was your family background? NEIGHBORS: I was born in Marshall, Texas, in 1945, November, in the tiny gap between the greatest generation and the baby-boom generation, which started in ’46. Marshall is a small town in East Texas, not far from the Louisiana line. It’s the home of Bill Moyers, or as he is known there, Billy Don Moyers, and the home of James Farmer, the founder of CORE (Congress of Racial Equality). The folksinger Lead Belly was from around there, as was the former heavyweight champion of the world, George Foreman. My aunt Sue used to see him at the local Piggly Wiggly (grocery store). Although I was born in Marshall, my father was in the military, in the Air Force. I spent a lot of time traveling around. I lived in 14 different states, plus the District of Columbia, and from kindergarten through 12th grade attended 12 different schools. Moving around as an Air Force brat got me used to the idea that after three or four years in one place, I needed a change of scenery, a new slant on reality. Q: If your father was in the Air Force, were most of his tours in the continental U.S.? NEIGHBORS: Most of them in the U.S., although I did spend 1954 through 1956 in Okinawa.
