Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mayflies of North and Central America was first published in 1976. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Mayflies have fascinated man for centuries because of the brief span of their adult lives. These aquatic insects spend most of their lives as nymphs in water, then develop into winged stages and soon die, most species having an adult life of only two or three days. This brevity is implied in the very name of the order, Ephemeroptera. The mayflies are almost worldwide in distribution, being found everywhere except in Antarctica, the extreme Arctic, and many small oceanic islands. All by three of the twenty families in the world occur in North or Central America, the regions covered in this volume. The book provides a modern, useful, and well-illustrated key to the adults and nymphs. Data on habitats, behavior, and life history are given for each genus. Characteristics of nymphs and adults are given for families, subfamilies, and genera, with brief accounts for extralimital families. A discussion of methods of collecting and preserving specimens precedes the main portion of the text. The book is generously illustrated with drawings, photographs, and a map. The role of aquatic insects as indicators of water pollution has received increasing attention, and in this connection this book will be of special interest to those concerned with pollution problems. Mayflies, besides indicating the presence of pollutants, also help remove such substances from the waters, the authors explain. As a basic reference work, the book is essential for all biological science libraries. Many fly-fishermen are amateur students of mayflies, since the nymphs of larger species are used as bait. With the help of this volume the fisherman can acquire a greater knowledge of aquatic entomology and relate to his sport.

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Buprestidae of North America, Exclusive of Mexico: A Catalogue Including Synonomy, Bibliography, Distribution, Type Locality and Hosts of Each Species The first requirement in undertaking any problem in Entomology, be it of a systematic or an economic nature, is a comprehensive knowledge of the literature on the subject. The working up of a more or less complete bibliography, is then, one of the first essentials and is often a task requiring considerable time, especially for workers who have only limited library facilities.

Book excerpt: This volume is the proceedings of the IX International Conference on Ephemeroptera and the XII International Symposium on Plecoptera, held in Tucuman, Argentina. Divided into comprehensive thematic sections, the early sections cover studies on ecology and behavior ranging from life cycles and general biology to genetic divergence and vibrational communication, while the latter sections reveal the diversified studies being developed worldwide. This book will be useful for beginners and specialists, providing important data for ecological, distributional, morphological, and biogeographical studies.

Book excerpt: This valuable catalog lists all family-group (family, subfamily, tribe, subtribe) and genus-group (generic or subgeneric) names that have been proposed for the Ephemeroptera, both recent and fossil, including the hierarchical classification of the order. The first part illustrates the hierarchical classification of the Ephemeroptera. The second part is an alphabetical list of all family-group names proposed for Ephemeroptera, while the third part consists of an alphabetical catalog of all genus-group names that have been proposed.

This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Type Localities of Plants First Described From New Mexico, And, a Bibliography of New Mexican Botany Under each species in the list, when practicable, are given the type locality, name of collector, type number, and date of collection, and any other data that have seemed important. In addition the writer has attempted to give the accepted name for each species whenever it has been found necessary to transfer it to another genus or when it has been found to be a synonym. Unless otherwise stated, the name listed is, so far as the writer knows, a valid one. No effort has been made to determine whether the numerous names published during the last few years represent good species or not.

Download or read book The Phylogenetic System of Ephemeroptera written by Nikita Kluge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book has general biological significance due to usage of the new non-ranking nomenclature and the rational layout of taxonomic text, which can be qualified as post-Linnaean systematics. While after the works by Lameere and Hennig, non-ranking classifications became widely used, this book represents the first experience of consistently non-ranking classification, including taxa of low taxonomic level (i.e. taxa traditionally regarded as genera, families et al.). In contrast to other recent attempts to elaborate a non-ranking nomenclature not contradictory to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, this one appears to be successful and can be applied to any zoological taxa (although its application in botany could be possible only after further elaboration). Biology is currently going through a crisis, which causes some investigators to use such non-scientific methods of reconstructing phylogeny as parsimony analysis. The author believes that the new method of phylogeny description and reconstruction used in this book will help indicate a way out of this crisis.
