B.S.F.-Belvedere Scientific Fund RELATED COLLECTIONS SC0022 - Douglas H. Campbell Papers Scope and Content This collection covers the period 1928-65 and consists mainly of professional correspondence. Wiggins maintained long-term contact with a number of prominent botanists and participated in many professional exchanges of information and specimens, often dealing with the identification of certain flora. His field trips are described in great detail in this correspondence as well as in the various reports he wrote. There is a good amount of correspondence on his work with the Belvedere Scientific Fund in Baja California, and a fair amount of Stanford University correspondence relating to his administrative duties over the years. There are also files relating to Wiggins' duties with the American Fern Society and the Arctic Institute of North America. These files do not contain any of Prof. Wiggins' papers dealing with his research at Point Barrow, Alaska for the U.S. Government (Summer 1950- Sept. 1953 and Mar.-Oct. 1956). Field notebooks are also not included in the collection. Additional papers were received in 1983 and 1986, largely consisting of correspondence and articles, 1926 to 1985. Of note are papers relating to Wiggin's work in Ecuador, 1944; notes from field trips to the Sonoran desert, 1926-37; typescripts of several articles; and collected materials and drafts of biographies on A. W. C. T. Herre, Gilbert M. Smith, and Carl B. Wolf. Major correspondents include Wendell Holmes Camp and B.A. Krukoff (New York Botanical Garden), J.Pinckney Hester (Boyce Thompson Arboretum), Maximino Martinez (Sociedad Botanica de México), Wm. R. Maxon (U.S. National Museum), Reed C. Rollins (Gray Herbarium, Harvard and U.S. Bureau of Plant Industry), Forrest Shreve (Carnegie Institute Division of Plant Biology, Desert Investigations), William Steere (Department of Botany, University of Michigan and Editor, American Journal of Botany), Albert M.Vollmer, M.D. (accompanied Wiggins on field trips), William A. Weber (Univesity of Colorado), and Carol H. Woodward (New York Botanical Garden and editor for several of Wiggins' articles). Professor Wiggins grouped his correspondence alphabetically within certain time periods. Certain major correspondents have their own folders, but it is wise to check the general correspondence files as well. The accessions received in 1983 and 1986 were combined and processed as "additional papers." As far as possible original folder labels were retained; the folders were then arranged alphabetically. Where appropriate, correspondence from the general correspondence folders was removed and given separate folders. Biography Ira Loren Wiggins, Emeritus Professor of Biology, former Curator of the Dudley Herbarium and Director of the Natural History Museum, was born on January 1, 1899. He received his A.B. degree from Occidental College in 1922, his A.M. from Stanford in 1925, and His Ph.D. in botany from Stanford in 1930. He joined the Stanford faculty in 1929 and became Emeritus Professor of Biology in 1964. Professor Wiggins was active in a number of organizations in his field. He served as President of the American Fern Society, the California Botanical Society, the California Academy of Sciences, and the American Society of Plant Taxonomists. He was a member of the Board of Governors of the Arctic Society of America and Editor of the American Fern Journal. He served as Scientific Director of the Arctic Research Laboratory at Point Barrow, Alaska and conducted botanical field research in Baja California under the auspices of the Belvedere Scientific Fund. His publications include over 100 papers dealing with systematic botany and plant ecology. His book A Flora of the Alaskan Arctic Slope, written in conjunction with John Hunter Thomas, Asst. Curator of the Dudley Herbarium and lecturer in biology at Stanford, was published by the University of Toronto Press in 1962. Preferred Citation: Guide to the Ira L.

  • THE HAWAIIAN SILVERSWORDS Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Genus Argyroxiphium
    THE HAWAIIAN SILVERSWORDS Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Genus Argyroxiphium By DAVID D. KECK BERNICE P. BISHOP MUSEUM OCCASIONAL PAPERS VOLUME XI, NUMBER 19 HONOLULU, HAWAII PUBLISHED BY THE MuSEUM March 20, 1936 THE HAW AllAN SILVERSWORDS: Systematics, Affinities, and Phytogeographic Problems of the Argyroxiphium By DAVID D. KF;CK Carnegie Institution of Washington, Stanford University, California INTRODUCTION Theories as to the origin of the Hawaiian islands and the deriva­ tion of their flora and fauna have appeared with frequency and aroused the greatest interest among biologists. Probably no other region in the world has developed so extraordinary a degree of endemism, which, according to Hillebrand (9) 1, for the indigenous vascular plants is 75.93 percent. Much more recent figures for the indigenous flowering plants given by Campbell (5) reach the remark­ able figure of 9°04 percent! This endemism is directly connected with the fact that the Hawaiian Archipelago is the most isolated area of equal size in the world. There have been many advocates of the theory that the Hawaiian islands are of oceanic origin, that they were elevated from the bottom of the ocean by volcanic action, and that they have always been completely isolated. Others have taken the opposing view that the islands have not always been so isolated, but may even be considered of continental origin. Those with the latter viewpoint believe that the present archipelago represents but the tips of volcanic mountain masses superimposed upon a large block that has undergone sub­ sidence. For instance, Campbell (4) believes there may have been a more or less direct connection.

    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY NUMBER 12 An Introduction to the Botanical Type Specimen Register Stanwyn G. Shetler with Mary Jane Petrini, Constance Graham Carley, M. J. Harvey, Larry E. Morse, Thomas E. Kopfler, and Collaborators SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1973 ABSTRACT Shetler, Stanwyn G., with Mary Jane Petrini, Constance Graham Carley, M. J. Harvey, Larry E. Morse, Thomas E. Kopfler, and Collaborators. An Introduc- tion to the Botanical Type Specimen Register. Srnithsonian Contributions to Botany, number 12, 186 pages, 3 figures, frontispiece, 1973.--In the first part, the development of a computer-based system for storing and retrieving infonna- tion about botanical type specimens is described from its pilot stage to its present operational stage. The concept, purpose, and scope are explained, and the operational procedures are outlined. Ways of using and contributing to this computerized register of types, both in the short-run and in the longrun, are proposed. A statistical summary of the content of the Type Register as of 30 September 1972 is given. Over 13,000 specimens representing more than 10,000 taxa have been registered. The second part consists of a Catalog of more than' 1,000 specimens representing over 600 taxa of the genus Carex (Cyperaceae), which are deposited in ten major American herbaria, and the Catalog is cross- indexed five different ways: by author, publication date, collector, country, and herbarium. An introduction summarizes the preparation and editing of the Catalog. This Carex Catalog represents the first published installment of the Type Register and as such is intended to serve as an example.

  • The Dudley Herbarium Including a Case Study of Terman’S Restructuring of the Biology Department
    The Dudley Herbarium Including a case study of Terman’s restructuring of the biology department BY SARA TIMBY he history of the Dudley Herbarium embodies an intellectual tradition that spans a hundred years of fieldwork and publishing. The herbarium’s curators trained several generations of researchers, educators, and public and private land-use managers and fought hard to protect our forests, rangelands, and wetlands. It is exciting history, full of tales of exploration, political fights, and personal conflicts. The herbarium’s fate at TStanford is also a fascinating story, illuminating aspects of university decision-making and changes in the discipline of the biological sciences. Provost Frederick E.

    PATRICK J. MAVEETY AND DARLE MAVEETY An Oral History conducted by Betsy G. Fryberger STANFORD HISTORICAL SOCIETY ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM Stanford University ©2016 2 Patrick J. and Darle Maveety 3 4 Contents Introduction p. 7 Abstract p. 9 Biography p. 11 Interview Transcript p. 13 Topics p. 49 Interviewer Biography p. 51 5 6 Introduction This oral history was conducted by the Stanford Historical Society Oral History Program in collaboration with the Stanford University Archives. The program is under the direction of the Oral History Committee of the Stanford Historical Society. The Stanford Historical Society Oral History Program furthers the Society’s mission “to foster and support the documentation, study, publication, dissemination, and preservation of the history of the Leland Stanford Junior University.” The program explores the institutional history of the University, with an emphasis on the transformative post-WWII period, through interviews with leading faculty, staff, alumni, trustees, and others. The interview recordings and transcripts provide valuable additions to the existing collection of written and photographic materials in the Stanford University Archives. Oral history is not a final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a unique, reflective, spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it may be deeply personal. Each oral history is a reflection of the past as the interviewee remembers and recounts it. But memory and meaning vary from person to person; others may recall events differently. Used as primary source material, any one oral history will be compared with and evaluated in light of other evidence, such as contemporary texts and other oral histories, in arriving at an interpretation of the past.
