On October 14, 1957, the charter of The Graduate Research Center, Inc. was approved and filed in the Office of the Secretary of State at Austin, Texas. In the words of the charter, "this corporation is formed to support and encourage the advancement of knowledge in the pure and applied sciences, and to aid in the conduct of research and investigations in those fields at Southern Methodist University."


Some Aspects Of Regeneration Silviculture In Spruce-Aspen Stands In Alberta, L. A. Smithers Jul 1959

Some Aspects Of Regeneration Silviculture In Spruce-Aspen Stands In Alberta, L. A. Smithers

Aspen Bibliography

Surveys of spruce-aspen stands in Northern Alberta have shown that natural regeneration of white spruce is generally a failure on areas which have been logged but not burned (Candy 1951).


Growth Measurements Of Holstein, Ayrshire, Guernsey And Jersey Males, H. P. Davis, I. L. Hathaway Jul 1959

Growth Measurements Of Holstein, Ayrshire, Guernsey And Jersey Males, H. P. Davis, I. L. Hathaway

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

This study was based on monthly observations of all Holstein, Ayrshire, Guernsey and Jersey males born in the University of Nebraska dairy herd between 1922 and 1942. There were varying numbers of animals for the different months of age for the several breeds. Measurements of weight, slope of the rump, thickness of skin, and 13 linear measurements were taken monthly, from birth to disposal of the animals. The linear measurements were of heights at withers, hooks and rump; of lengths-diagonal (shoulder point to pinbone), body and rump; of widths at chest, hooks and pinbones; of depths at chest and barrel; …

Field and Laboratory

Necturus normally forage at night, when they leave their favored hiding places and move slowly over the bottom seeking food. Slow, undulating movements of the tail propel them; the legs seem scarcely used.

Bionomics Of Culex Tarsalis Coquillett In Utah County, Stanley K. Taylor Jul 1959

Bionomics Of Culex Tarsalis Coquillett In Utah County, Stanley K. Taylor

Theses and Dissertations

This paper presents information concerning the bionomics of Culex tarsalis Coquillett in Utah County. Observations indicate that rock piles and talus slides are typical hibernation sites. The spring emergence from hibernation occurred between 28 March and 7 April 1959. Larvae breed in a great variety of habitats, including street-gutters, animal tracks, marshes and waste water from irrigation systems. The peak population density for both larvae and adults occurred during the first week in August. Charts, graphs, drawings and photographs are used in the presentation of data.

A Survey Of The Food Habits And Distribution Of The Fishes Of Tuckahoe Creek, Virginia, With Special Emphasis On Lepomis Macrochirus Rafinesque, David Andrew Flemer Jul 1959

A Survey Of The Food Habits And Distribution Of The Fishes Of Tuckahoe Creek, Virginia, With Special Emphasis On Lepomis Macrochirus Rafinesque, David Andrew Flemer

Master's Theses

An integral part of the ecological study of any organism is a good understanding of the food relationships. Basic studies of the distribution and ecology of common fresh-water fishes are necessary before a more detailed analysis can be made of the fishes in a particular area. Lagler (1956) states that food habit studies help determine population levels, rates of growth, and condition of the fishes. He also concludes that they serve as a partial basis for determining the status of various predatory and competing forms. Raney (1942) states that an intelligent fishery management program depends heavily upon information gained through …


Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Xxxv. On The Identity Of Certain Cestodes (Taeniidae) From Foxes, Robert L. Rausch Jul 1959

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Xxxv. On The Identity Of Certain Cestodes (Taeniidae) From Foxes, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Some species of the genus Taenia Linnaeus, 1758, are morphologically so similar in the adult stage that their separation is very difficult. Complicating this problem is the questionable validity of certain of these species which have been insufficiently characterized. There are two species, however, the adults of which possess well defined morphological difference but which have been repeatedly confused despite their having been adequately described by early investigators. These cestodes, Taenia crassiceps (Zeder, 1800) and T. polyacantha Leuckart, 1856, have for many years been recognized solely by their larval characteristics under the misconception that the adults were indistinguishable.


Identification Of Larval Ticks Of The Genus Ixodes Known To Occur In Utah, Leland D. White Jul 1959

Identification Of Larval Ticks Of The Genus Ixodes Known To Occur In Utah, Leland D. White

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study is to present an analysis and key to the larvae of the nine species of Ixodes known to occur in Utah. These are I. kingi, I. muris, I. texanus, I. pacificus, I. spinipalpis, I. marmotae, I. ochotonoe, I angustus, and I. sculptus. Larvae from the first five of these nine species used in this study were reared in the laboratory by worked cited in the secion on Analysis of Species. those of the remaining four were identified on the basis of their presence with identifiable numphal and adult forms. Host specificity, although certainly variable with …

A Distributional Check-List Of New Mexican Mammals, Arthur H. Harris Jun 1959

A Distributional Check-List Of New Mexican Mammals, Arthur H. Harris

Biology ETDs

Vernon Bailey's Mammals of New Mexico is not a satisfactory source of data for many studies which directly or indirectly involve distributions of mammals within New Mexico. The present work is an attempt to provide such a source--to bring together in usable form all published records of occurrence within the state for each species of mammal that is known to occur in New Mexico and also to make available such unpublished records as are present in the University of New Mexico Collection of Vertebrates. Some additional information on names, life-zone preferences, and subspecies to be found within the state has …
