This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 974 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, Vol. 16 The following pages contain the results of several years' study of one of the most interesting and difficult branches of American Conchology. My ms. Was completed in and I find, upon freshly taking up the subject, that I am inclined to question many of the conclusions at which I had then arrived. A more enlarged acquaintance with fresh-water shells convinces me that a much greater reduction of the number of species than I have attempted must eventually be made; but until the prolific waters of the southern states have been systematically explored and a great collection of Specimens obtained, which shall represent every portion of those streams and include as many transitional forms as can be procured, a definitive monograph of our Melanians cannot be written. I am indebted to several kind friends for assist ance in preparing this work; first of all, to Dr. Isaac Lea, who not only gave me constant access to his noble collection, but on many occasions aided me by comparing specimens and elucidating knotty questions in synonymy. Mr. John G. Anthony, Prof. S. S. Haldeman and the late Dr. Aug. A. Gould, with great liberality, sent to me their types; and in these collections and that of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, I also found types of many of the species described by Say and Conrad. Most of my synonymy is derived from the direct comparison of these typical shells, and to this extent I believe my work will prove to be reliable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, 1928, Vol. 80 If we had but to describe the thorax as it is, the task of the anato mist would not be a simple one, but it is always necessary to look beyond the facts that confront us and to discover the more funda mental structures upon which they are reared, an undertaking which requires redoubled effort, but without which there can be no true morphology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, Vol. 122 Since the variation of the sun operates primarily and directly on the temperature of the atmosphere, and only indirectly on precipita tion, it seemed probable that a study of temperature might Show even more perfect control by solar variation than does precipitation. I therefore take up in the present paper the temperature of Washington in relation to the 23 known regular periodic variations of the sun's output of radiation. As in the Peoria and Albany papers, I employ, for the most part, the monthly mean values published in the three volumes of World Weather Records, but supplement these by U. S.
