Most of these were assembled at the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History, but some were examined in other institutions. Specimens were grouped by geographic origin, age, and sex. Studies of the role of age and sex in variation were made. Because it was discovered that secondary sexual variation was negligible, both males and females, if of like age and pelage, were used in comparisons designed to reveal geographic variation. External measurements used were total length, length of tail, and length of hind foot. After studying a number of cranial dimensions I chose those listed below as the most useful in showing differences in Size and proportions of the Skull. Figures 1 and 2 Show the points between which those measurements were taken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from University of Kansas Publications, Museum of Natural History, 1970-1971, Vol. 19 The localities used as samples in this study vary in Size, shape, and geo graphic composition. In many cases I used museum specimens that had not been collected expressly for studies in geographic variation. It was therefore necessary to lump various localities together in order to obtain reasonable sample sizes. In many cases sample sizes are still relatively small, but I con sidered it to be of greater value to include information based on a few speci mens than to have no information at all for certain sites. A total of 54 samples, or localities, is used for most characters in males. And, since in Red-winged Blackbirds there have been fewer females collected than males, only 48 local ities could be used for most characters in females. A total of male and 679 female specimens have been used in the final analysis. In much of the discussion that follows, and in various illustrations, localities are referred to by number. The locality numbers, geographic details of each sample, and number of specimens per locality are given in Table 1 (see also Fig. About 600 specimens were collected by Mr. W. M. Good between 1949 and 1951 for the purpose of a study of geographic variation. About 320 speci mens were collected by me during the summer of 1966. These specimens, among others used, are housed at the University of Kansas. The remaining specimens were taken in various years by many different collectors and are now housed in several museums in the U. S. And Canada (see Acknowledgments section).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from University of Kansas Publications, Museum of Natural History, Vol. 10: 1956-1960 Considerable interest has been occasioned in recent years in the eastern United States by large-scale accidents to night-migrating birds. Most accidents have occurred in the autumn. The wide spread adoption by airports of an instrument called the ceilometer, which measures the height of cloud ceilings by reflecting from them a high-powered beam of light, has proved under certain conditions to be catastrophic to night-flying birds. Among the recent reports of such accidents are those of Spofford (1949) and Laskey (1951) for Nashville, Tennessee, Howell and Tanner 1951) for Knoxville, Tennessee, and Lovell (1952) for Louisville, Kentucky. Recently Howell, Laskey, and Tanner (1954) reviewed ceilometer tragedies without being able to determine the exact reason for their lethal effectiveness. Less publicized so far have been mass collisions of birds with another class of Obstacles, tall radio and television towers. These slender towers, usually 500 to 1000 feet tall, are increasing rapidly in numbers and there is reason to suppose that they will take a correspondingly larger toll of bird life. Notice has long been given by ornithologists to mass destruction of birds by more conventional solid Obstructions to passage, and newspapers occasionally mention birds killed at such well-known points as the Washington Monument and the Empire State Build Ing. Seventy-five years ago, J. A. Allen (1880) published the results of questionnaires circulated by William Brewster to lighthouse keepers. Brewster himself (1886) described destruction of birds at a lighthouse in the Bay of Fundy, paying keen attention to be havior of the birds and the exact conditions under which nocturnal flight and accidents occurred. The subject also received attention in several countries across the Atlantic. Destruction of birds at Irish lighthouses was carefully noted over a period of years and the results were published periodically, culminating in R. M. Barring ton's massive report 1900) which remains in some ways the most thorough of its type. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
