  • Karl Jordan: a Life in Systematics
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Kristin Renee Johnson for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of SciencePresented on July 21, 2003. Title: Karl Jordan: A Life in Systematics Abstract approved: Paul Lawrence Farber Karl Jordan (1861-1959) was an extraordinarily productive entomologist who influenced the development of systematics, entomology, and naturalists' theoretical framework as well as their practice. He has been a figure in existing accounts of the naturalist tradition between 1890 and 1940 that have defended the relative contribution of naturalists to the modem evolutionary synthesis. These accounts, while useful, have primarily examined the natural history of the period in view of how it led to developments in the 193 Os and 40s, removing pre-Synthesis naturalists like Jordan from their research programs, institutional contexts, and disciplinary homes, for the sake of synthesis narratives. This dissertation redresses this picture by examining a naturalist, who, although often cited as important in the synthesis, is more accurately viewed as a man working on the problems of an earlier period. This study examines the specific problems that concerned Jordan, as well as the dynamic institutional, international, theoretical and methodological context of entomology and natural history during his lifetime. It focuses upon how the context in which natural history has been done changed greatly during Jordan's life time, and discusses the role of these changes in both placing naturalists on the defensive among an array of new disciplines and attitudes in science, and providing them with new tools and justifications for doing natural history. One of the primary intents of this study is to demonstrate the many different motives and conditions through which naturalists came to and worked in natural history.

Flora and Fauna International S.A.R.N. DIRECTORY of Reptile Field Researchers in South Asia (as of December 2000) Compiled by Sanjay Molur South Asian Reptile Network Zoo Outreach Organisation PB 1683, 29/1 Bharathi Colony Peelamedu, Coimbatore Tamil Nadu, India Funded by Fauna and Flora International and Columbus Zoo Assisted by South Asian Reptile and Amphibian Specialist Group Conservation Breeding Specialist Group, India Zoo Outreach Organisation For a long time, it was felt that though there were quite a few reptile researchers in India, there was no coordination, cooperation, exchange of information between them. Often only a core group of “well-known” reptile researchers were in communication. The rest of the biologists did their own research in isolation. This, of course, did lead to duplication of work, non-standard methodologies, ambiguity in knowledge, non-accessibility to exotic references, etc. The effects of this situation were obvious at the Conservation Assessment and Management Plan workshop (CAMP) for Reptiles in May 1997. At the workshop, albeit the exercise lead to the assessment of close to 500 taxa of Indian reptiles, a sense of unease was felt by the participants. Many isolated studies on reptiles could not be compared for want of comparable field methodologies, the veracity of the information provided was questioned of an unknown or nervous researcher and the ubiquitous feeling of “if we had all known each other better, we could have come up with more information” were reasons for the group recommending that a network of reptile researchers be formed immediately.

NATIONAL MUSEUM DURING THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1904. By Richard Rathbun, Assistant Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, incharge of the U. S. National Museum. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS. The United States National Museum had its origin in the act of Congress of 1846 founding the Smithsonian Institution, which made the formation of a museum one of the principal functions of the latter, and provided that Whenever suitable arrangements can be made from time to time for their recep- tion, all objects of art and of foreign and curious research, and all objects of natural history, plants, and geological and mineralogical specimens belonging to the United States, which may be in the city of Washington, in. whosesoever custody they may be, shall be delivered to such persona as may be authorized by the Board of Regents to receive them, and shall be so arranged and classified in the building erected for the Institution as best to facilitate the examination and study of them; and when- ever new specimens in natural history, geology, or mineralogy are obtained for the museum of the Institution, by exchanges of duplicate specimens, which the Regents may in their discretion make, or by donation, which they may receive, or otherwise, the Regents shall cause such new specimens to be appropriately classed and arranged.

  • Historical Development of Nematology in Russia~ S
    JOURNAL OF NEMATOLOGY VOLUME 9 JANUARY 1977 NUMBER 1 Historical Development of Nematology in Russia~ S. G. MJUGE 2 Abstract: The development of Russian hematology is considered from the late nineteenth century to 1970. The dominant influences of I. N. Filipjev and A. A. Paramonov are discussed in the context of the persons whom they influenced and their ctmceptual approach to the problems posed hy nematodes. The advantages and disadvantages of the framework of Russian scientific administration are compared to those in the West. Key Words: Filipjev, Heterodera spp., Meloidogyne spp., Paratnonov. Science develops through the gradual popular agricultural journals such as accumulation of information and often Khozyain (The Landlord). Sometimes these changes direction with the development of consisted of complete translations of new ideas, or new approaches to old con- foreign articles, such as one by J. Kuhn cepts.
