Liner Houma, Louisiana smithsonian herpetological information service no. 127 2000 SMITHSONIAN HERPETOLOGICAL INFORMATION SERVICE The SHIS series publishes and distributes translations, bibliographies, indices, and similar items judged useful to individuals interested in the biology of amphibians and reptiles, but unlikely to be published in the normal technical journals. Single copies are distributed free to interested individuals. Libraries, herpetological associations, and research laboratories are invited to exchange their publications with the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles. We wish to encourage individuals to share their bibliographies, translations, etc. with other herpetologists through the SHIS series. If you have such items please contact George Zug for instructions on preparation and submission. Contributors receive 50 free copies.

As of 30 June 1999, he authored or co-authored 1367 publications covering a range of scholarly and popular papers dealing with such diverse subjects as taxonomy, life history, geographical distribution, checklists, nomenclatural problems, bibliographies, herpetological coins, anatomy, comparative anatomy textbooks, pet books, book reviews, abstracts, encyclopedia entries, prefaces and forwords as well as updating volumes being repnnted. The checklists of the herpetofauna of Mexico authored with Dr. Edward H. Taylor are legendary as is the Synopsis of the Herpetofalhva of Mexico coauthored with his late wife, Rozella B.

  • Xenosaurus Tzacualtipantecus. the Zacualtipán Knob-Scaled Lizard Is Endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Eastern Mexico
    Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus. The Zacualtipán knob-scaled lizard is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of eastern Mexico. This medium-large lizard (female holotype measures 188 mm in total length) is known only from the vicinity of the type locality in eastern Hidalgo, at an elevation of 1,900 m in pine-oak forest, and a nearby locality at 2,000 m in northern Veracruz (Woolrich- Piña and Smith 2012). Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus is thought to belong to the northern clade of the genus, which also contains X. newmanorum and X. platyceps (Bhullar 2011). As with its congeners, X. tzacualtipantecus is an inhabitant of crevices in limestone rocks. This species consumes beetles and lepidopteran larvae and gives birth to living young. The habitat of this lizard in the vicinity of the type locality is being deforested, and people in nearby towns have created an open garbage dump in this area. We determined its EVS as 17, in the middle of the high vulnerability category (see text for explanation), and its status by the IUCN and SEMAR- NAT presently are undetermined. This newly described endemic species is one of nine known species in the monogeneric family Xenosauridae, which is endemic to northern Mesoamerica (Mexico from Tamaulipas to Chiapas and into the montane portions of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala). All but one of these nine species is endemic to Mexico.

Nat. Croat. Vol. 27, No. 2, 407- 420*, 2018, Zagreb. In this paper, the plant lists of glasshouse succulents grown in the Botanical Garden from 1895 to 2017 are studied. Synonymy, nomenclature and origin of plant material were sorted. The lists of species grown in the last 122 years are constructed in such a way as to show that throughout that period at least 1423 taxa of succulent plants from 254 genera and 17 families inhabited the Garden’s cold glass- house collection.

[email protected] 3Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, Departamento de Botánica, Escuela Politécnica Superior, 27002 Lugo, España. RESUMEN La Sierra de Catorce, localizada en el norte del estado de San Luis Potosí, reúne algunas de las principales cimas del Desierto Chihuahuense cuyas cotas superan los 3000 metros. Ello ha favorecido que la Sierra sea una importante área de diversificación de la flora y las fitocenosis de dicha ecorregión. A partir del estudio fitosociológico de la vegetación del territorio, que se está realizando desde 1999, se ha obtenido un catálogo preliminar de su flora. Hasta el momento la lista de plantas vasculares está conformada por 526 especies y cuatro taxa infraespecíficos, agrupados en 293 géneros y 88 familias. Las familias y géneros mejor representados son Asteraceae, Poaceae, Cactaceae, Fabaceae, Fagaceae y Lamiaceae, así como Quercus, Opuntia, Muhlenbergia, Salvia, Agave, Bouteloua y Dyssodia, respectivamente. Asimismo se señalan los tipos de vegetación representativos del área que albergan los diferentes taxa. Por último, con base en diferentes listas de flora amenazada, se identificaron las especies incluidas en alguna de las categorías reconocidas. Palabras clave: Desierto Chihuahuense, estudio fitosociológico, flora, flora ame- nazada, México, San Luis Potosí, Sierra de Catorce.

    Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey for 1996. Bishop 51 Museum Occasional Papers 48: 51-65. (1997) Contributions to the Flora of the Hawai‘i. VI1 WARREN L. WAGNER 2, ROBYNN K. SHANNON (Department of Botany, MRC 166, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC 20560, USA), and DERRAL R. HERBST3 (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, CEPOD-ED-ES, Fort Shafter, HI 96858, USA) As discussed in previous papers published in the Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey (Wagner & Herbst, 1995; Lorence et al., 1995; Herbst & Wagner, 1996; Shannon & Wagner, 1996), recent collecting efforts, continued curation of collections at Bishop Museum and the National Museum of Natural History (including processing of backlogs), and review of relevant literature all continue to add to our knowledge about the Hawaiian flora. When published, this information supplements and updates the treatments in the Manual of the flowering plants of Hawai‘i (Wagner et al., 1990). In just the last 2 years, in the Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey alone, new records for 265 taxa of flow- ering plants have been reported from the Hawaiian Islands. In this paper we report an additional 13 new state records (from Kaua‘i, O‘ahu, Moloka‘i, and Hawai‘i), 14 new island records (from Midway Atoll, Kaua‘i, O‘ahu, Maui, Lana‘i, Kaho‘olawe, and Hawai‘i), 8 taxonomic changes, and 2 corrections of identification. All specimens are determined by the authors except as indicated. Amaranthaceae Amaranthus retroflexus L. New state record This coarse, villous, monoecious herb 5–30 dm tall apparently was naturalized in the Hawaiian Islands 20 years ago, but its current status is not known.

  • Water Plant List for Cochise County, Arizona
    Water Wise No - Water Plant List for Cochise County, Arizona The following plants can be used in a landscape with no supplemental water once established. Establishment takes about 1 year for groundcovers, wildflowers and grass, 2 years for shrubs and 3 years for trees. Catch rainwater to water plants. Contour your yard with dips (swales) and shallow catchment basins to catch rainwater and create berms to direct water to planted areas. Dig deep wide holes and fill them with coarse gravel to store water in the ground around plants. Install catchment containers for roof run-off. 1,000 sqft of collection area can yield 600 gallons in a 1 inch rain. Think big.

    MJie,ianJfuseum PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK 24, N.Y. NUMBER 1934 APRIL 22, 1959 Taxonomic Notes on a Collection of Venezuelan Reptiles in the American Museum of Natural History BY JANIS A. ROZE1 INTRODUCTION While visiting museums2 in the United States in an effort to prepare a monographic study of the Venezuelan snake fauna, I had the privi- lege of examining an unidentified reptile collection in the American Museum of Natural History. It contained 72 specimens, representing 25 species and subspecies, two of which proved to be undescribed. Notes on specimens from the United States National Museum (U.S.N.M.), Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh (C.M.), and Museo de Biologia, Univer- sidad Central de Venezuela, Caracas, Venezuela (M.B.U.C.V.), are added. At present the state of our knowledge concerning the systematic position of the amphibians and reptiles, or, indeed, the flora and fauna, of South America in general and Venezuela in particular leaves much to be desired. The situation here is similar to the one existing about 50 to 70 years ago in Europe or North America; thus every speci- men collected contributes to our understanding of the various popula- tions within a given area, or discloses the existence of taxa not pre- ' Escuela de Biologia, Universidad Central de Venezuela. 2 The trip was financed by the Fundaci6n Creole, Caracas, Venezuela, and the Council Research Fund of the American Museum of Natural History. 2 AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES NO. 1934 viously recognized. Not until rather exhaustive taxonomic studies have been completed can the zoogeographical and ecological problems be fully appreciated and worked out in detail.
