    8 April 2021 Mr. Jon Kurland Assistant Regional Administrator Protected Resources Division, Alaska Region National Marine Fisheries Service P.O. Box 21668 Juneau, Alaska 99082-1668 Dear Mr. Kurland: The Marine Mammal Commission (the Commission), in consultation with its Committee of Scientific Advisors on Marine Mammals, has reviewed the National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NMFS) 8 January 2021 Federal Register notice (86 Fed. Reg. 1452) revising its proposed designation of critical habitat for Arctic ringed seals (Phoca hispida hispida)1 and reopening the comment period on that proposal. The Commission offers the following comments and recommendations. Background On 28 December 2012, NMFS published a final rule listing the Arctic ringed seal as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) (77 Fed. Reg. 76706) and requesting information on physical and biological features essential to the conservation of Arctic ringed seals and on economic consequences of designating critical habitat for this species. Section 3(5)(A) of the ESA defines “critical habitat” as: (i) the specific areas within the geographical area occupied by the species, at the time it is listed in accordance with section 4 of this Act, on which are found those physical or biological features (I) essential to the conservation of the species and (II) which may require special management considerations or protection; and (ii) specific areas outside the geographical area occupied by the species at the time it is listed in accordance with the provisions of section 4 of this Act, upon a determination by the Secretary that such areas are essential for the conservation of the species.

Lewin * & G. E. Fogg** Rules and recommendations for the typification of many kinds of microorganisms, in- cluding microscopic algae and fungi, need to be updated for a variety of reasons. Improve- ments of fixation techniques normally make it unnecessary to invoke Article 9, Note 1, which relates to "the name of a species of infraspecific taxon of Recent plants of which it is impossible to preserve a specimen..." On the other hand, more and more taxonomy is being based on electron-microscopy, biochemistry, serology or other modern techniques for which living material may be needed, and for which a herbarium sheet is generally inadequate and a drawing, or even a photomicrograph, is for various reasons unsatisfactory.

  • A Review of Phylogenetic Hypotheses Regarding Aphodiinae (Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae)
    STATE OF KNOWLEDGE OF DUNG BEETLE PHYLOGENY - a review of phylogenetic hypotheses regarding Aphodiinae (Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae) Mattias Forshage 2002 Examensarbete i biologi 20 p, Ht 2002 Department of Systematic Zoology, Evolutionary Biology Center, Uppsala University Supervisor Fredrik Ronquist Abstract: As a preparation for proper phylogenetic analysis of groups within the coprophagous clade of Scarabaeidae, an overview is presented of all the proposed suprageneric taxa in Aphodiinae. The current knowledge of the affiliations of each group is discussed based on available information on their morphology, biology, biogeography and paleontology, as well as their classification history. With this as a background an attempt is made to estimate the validity of each taxon from a cladistic perspective, suggest possibilities and point out the most important questions for further research in clarifying the phylogeny of the group. The introductory part A) is not a scientific paper but an introduction into the subject intended for the seminar along with a polemic against a fraction of the presently most active workers in the field: Dellacasa, Bordat and Dellacasa. The main part B) is the discussion of all proposed suprageneric taxa in the subfamily from a cladistic viewpoint. The current classification is found to be quite messy and unfortunately a large part of the many recent attempts to revise higher-level classification within the group do not seem to be improvements from a phylogenetic viewpoint.

  • Classification of Plants
    Classification of Plants Plants are classified in several different ways, and the further away from the garden we get, the more the name indicates a plant's relationship to other plants, and tells us about its place in the plant world rather than in the garden. Usually, only the Family, Genus and species are of concern to the gardener, but we sometimes include subspecies, variety or cultivar to identify a particular plant. Starting from the top, the highest category, plants have traditionally been classified as follows. Each group has the characteristics of the level above it, but has some distinguishing features. The further down the scale you go, the more minor the differences become, until you end up with a classification which applies to only one plant. Written convention indicated with underlined text KINGDOM Plant or animal DIVISION (PHYLLUM) CLASS Angiospermae (Angiosperms) Plants which produce flowers Gymnospermae (Gymnosperms) Plants which don't produce flowers SUBCLASS Dicotyledonae (Dicotyledons, Dicots) Plants with two seed leaves Monocotyledonae (Monocotyledons, Monocots) ‐ Plants with one seed leaf SUPERORDER A group of related Plant Families, classified in the order in which they are thought to have developed their differences from a common ancestor. There are six Superorders in the Dicotyledonae (Magnoliidae, Hamamelidae, Caryophyllidae, Dilleniidae, Rosidae, Asteridae), and four Superorders in the Monocotyledonae (Alismatidae, Commelinidae, Arecidae, Liliidae). The names of the Superorders end in ‐idae ORDER ‐ Each Superorder is further divided into several Orders. The names of the Orders end in ‐ales FAMILY ‐ Each Order is divided into Families. These are plants with many botanical features in common, and is the highest classification normally used.

  • Anatomy and Go Fish! Background
    Anatomy and Go Fish! Background Introduction It is important to properly identify fi sh for many reasons: to follow the rules and regulations, for protection against sharp teeth or protruding spines, for the safety of the fi sh, and for consumption or eating purposes. When identifying fi sh, scientists and anglers use specifi c vocabulary to describe external or outside body parts. These body parts are common to most fi sh. The difference in the body parts is what helps distinguish one fi sh from another, while their similarities are used to classify them into groups. There are approximately 29,000 fi sh species in the world. In order to identify each type of fi sh, scientists have grouped them according to their outside body parts, specifi cally the number and location of fi ns, and body shape. Classifi cation Using a system of classifi cation, scientists arrange all organisms into groups based on their similarities. The fi rst system of classifi cation was proposed in 1753 by Carolus Linnaeus. Linnaeus believed that each organism should have a binomial name, genus and species, with species being the smallest organization unit of life. Using Linnaeus’ system as a guide, scientists created a hierarchical system known as taxonomic classifi cation, in which organisms are classifi ed into groups based on their similarities. This hierarchical system moves from largest and most general to smallest and most specifi c: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. {See Figure 1. Taxonomic Classifi cation Pyramid}. For example, fi sh belong to the kingdom Animalia, the phylum Chordata, and from there are grouped more specifi cally into several classes, orders, families, and thousands of genus and species.

  • ABSTRACT BISHOP, WEST MICHAEL. a Risk
    ABSTRACT BISHOP, WEST MICHAEL. A Risk-based Decision Information System for Selecting an Algal Management Program. (Under the direction of Dr. Robert J. Richardson). Freshwater resources are a vital component needed to support numerous human activities. Climate change, water use dynamics, and eutrophication have synergistically promoted nuisance and noxious algal blooms throughout the world. The increasing distribution, duration, and intensity of algal blooms has created unprecedented concerns over safety and usability of freshwater. Some of the largest blooms ever documented have occurred in the recent past. This dissertation is designed to provide a framework to assist in 1) understanding risks associated with nuisance algal infestations and 2) comparatively assessing the efficacy, costs, and collateral risks of different management approaches.
