Download or read book Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society Vol 16 written by F. Wall and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, Vol. 16: A Popular Treatise on the Common Indian Snakes I shall not attempt to treat the subject exhaustively, as it seems to me a more useful purpose will be served by dealing with the commonest and most widely distributed species. Where a resemblance exists between two or more species, especially where one is poisonous and the others harmless, they will be shown together and an attempt will be made to frame easy rules whereby they may be distinguished, but here I must repeat what I have said in previous papers in this Journal, viz., that of all fallacious methods of identifying snakes, the usual one adopted with relation to colour and markings is the most unreliable. Attention must be given to the arrangement of the scales and shields. We mast again appeal to our readers to render every assistance by procuring living specimens without which the true colouring cannot be shown by our artists. The plates will show only a few inches in the middle of the body, in preference to a full-length drawing which would necessarily be on too small a scale in many cases to show the detail required for identification. Our first plate represents the common green pit viper (Lachesis gramineus), and the common green whip snake (Dryophis mycterizans). Before describing our first snake I think it advisable to make a few remarks on vipers in general so as to indicate their position in the snake world, and the relationship of this to other vipers. The word viper is derived from the Latin vivus alive and pario I bring forth, in reference to a method of birth unusual among ophidians, but not peculiar to this family.f Among our Indian representatives the true fresh water snakes (Homalopsid ) and the sea snakes (Hydrophiid ) also produce young. It is probably this viviparous habit which has led to the belief still hard to dispel from credulous minds, that vipers protect their young by swallowing them. A pregnant mother approaching parturition is killed, and living young found within her, or observed to escape from her: the erroneous conclusion is drawn that these must have been swallowed, especially as it is popularly understood that snakes produce eggs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, 1921, Vol. 28: Index and Title Page; Parts 1 and 2 I think that there is no doubt that the data in which Mr. Bell relies are far and away the most satisfactory for purposes of classification and that study of the habits as well as what may be termed cabinet investigation are little more than confirmatory yet, as Mr. Bell points out, there are many species and even genera whose early stages are entirely unknown and all we have to go on for the present are the habits and the results of examination of the image. I had already worked out a rough classification of the family and find that my results accord very closely with Mr. Bell's. I give below the points on which we differ.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, 1886, Vol. 1: Consisting of Four Numbers and Containing Twelve Illustrations IN issuing the first number of the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, it seems appropriate to give some account of the origin of the Society and of its position at the present time. It was founded on the 15th of September 1883, by seven gentlemen interested in natural history, who proposed to meet monthly and exchange notes, exhibit interesting specimens, and otherwise encourage one another. The subscription was purposely made little more than nominal, and the possibility of forming or maintaining a museum was scarcely contemplated at that time. For several months meetings were held in the Victoria and Albert Museum; but in January 1884, Mr. H. M. Phipson kindly offered the use of a room in his office in the Fort. This removal to a central situation gave an astonishing impulse to the Society. The meetings were better attended, the membership increased, and collections began to be made, so that in a very short time the necessity tbr more ample accommodation Was pressingly felt. A committee appointed to seek for suitable rooms, having failed elsewhere, recommended the Society to ask Mr. Phipson to let one half of his office premises, including the room, of which they had up to this time had the gratuitous use. He consented to this, and so the Society continued to hold its meet ings and keep its collections at 18, Forbes Street. Its progress was so rapid, however, that these premises were soon felt to be too small, and last month the collections were removed to larger and in every way more suitable rooms at 6, Apollo Street.

Under the roofs of caves they occur in clusters; often containing fifty or more nests, with isolated ones, or small clumps of two or three in close proximity to the central mass. Their nests, which take a long time to construct, are composed of agglutinated saliva, mixed with a few feathers and straws; they are of no particular shape, but if in a hole or other confined place, it necessarily takes its shape they are at times long and narrow, occasionally almost round, but generally they are of an irregular oblong shape. The entrance is a portion of the upper part of the nest left unfinished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
