Note On The Blood Of Necturus, Joseph P. Harris Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Since 1867, when van der Hoeven first recorded measurements of the red blood cells of Necturus, at least 60 papers have been published dealing in whole or in part with its blood. A few additional notes are included here.

The Bluebonnets (Lupinus) Of Texas, Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

By act of the legislature, Lupinus subcarnosus was designated the official state flower of Texas. Most of the bluebonnets in the state are thereby excluded from recognition as state flowers, a consequence of lack of sufficient taxonomic study. When the conservative opinions of a Sereno Watson and the exceedingly liberal ones of a Charles Piper Smith agree in treating our two most widespread annual species as a single one, it may seem ultra-Rafinesquian to resurrect any names from synonymy. Nevertheless there are several distinct (albeit closely related) species in Texas, as indicated in the key and notes below. Surprisingly, there …

Effects Of Weather-Condition On The Turtle Creek Plankters Near Dallas, Texas, Stanton J. Erickson

Field and Laboratory

An annual temperature cycle exists in fresh waters. This cycle, associated with periods of winter and summer stagnation, and spring and fall turnover, is governed by the addition and loss of heat. The amount of heat (in gram-calories) needed to raise the water temperature from its winter minimum to its summer maximum, is known as the "annual energy" or "heat budget." The heat-gain occurs in the spring, and effects spring-turnover; the heat-loss occurs in the fall, and effects fall-turnover. Over a period of years, the heat gained equals the heat lost (Allee 1939.) Plankters in their life cycles also exhibit …

Observations On A Partially-White English Sparrow, Passer Domesticus Domesticus, William B. Stallcup

Field and Laboratory

Reports in ornithological literature concerning albino- or partially-white birds are not rare. Few of these reports, however, include details of the actual coloration or of the behavior of such individuals.

Bulletin No. 363 - Butyl Fabrics As Canal Lining Materials, C. W. Lauritzen, W. H. Peterson

UAES Bulletins

The most important prerequisite of linings for controlling seepage losses from irrigation canals is their watertightness. In addition to being watertight, a lining must be relatively durable if it is to be economical. Rigid materials provide satisfactory linings for canals with well-drained and stable subgrades. Under other conditions, where expansive soils are encountered and ground water is a problem, a rigid lining such as concrete is not durable. Considering the many factors that govern the utility and durability of linings, the ideal lining would consist of a material with some flexibility, a material resistant to erosion and mechanical damage, and …

Synopsis Of The Genus Brazoria (Labiatae), Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

Little detailed and precise information is available about the many endemic flowering plants of Texas. Certain distribution patterns appear repeatedly among them, as may be seen in the maps of the species of Lupinus and those of Brazoria. Much more collecting must be done before a general account of Texas endemics can be given, but some of the more showy and easily collected ones are well enough represented by available specimens so that some account of them can be given now. Such information may offer some suggestions about future field work; it is hoped that it may also be an …
