The Striped Water Snake, Natrix Rigida (Say), In Texas, Lawrence Curtis, Donald Tinkle

Field and Laboratory

Stejneger and Barbour (1943) give the range of the striped water snake as "New Kent County, Virginia and South Carolina to Western Louisiana, excluding peninsular Florida." It was first recorded from Texas four years ago when Brown (1947) listed specimens from Leon (6 mi. nw. of Normangee), Jasper (12 mi. w. of Jasper), Henderson (7 mi. e. of Athens), and Hardin (4 mi. w. of Silsbee) counties. Later Brown (1950) noted specimens from Jefferson (2 mi. n. of Sabine Pass), Liberty (Daisetta), San Augustine (no specific locality), and Tyler (near Warren) counties.

The North Texas Species Of Heterotheca, Including Chrysopsis (Compositae), Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

The species of Chrysopsis of the United States and Mexico fall into strikingly heterogeneous groups. One, with slender, parallel-veined leaves and sericeous pubescence (C. graminifolia and allies), was treated by Nuttall (the original author of Chrysopsis itself) under Pityopsis. Another, with shorter or broader net-veined leaves and long, soft pubescence (C. gossypina and allies) has traditionally been regarded as typical Chrysopsis. Species of both groups are characterized by having conspicuous rays, and double pappus in all florets.

Geology Of The Eagle Ford Quadrangle, Dallas County, Texas, William Louis Turner

Field and Laboratory

The Eagle Ford quadrangle includes an area of 62 square miles in western Dallas County. It is bounded by the parallels 32°45'00" and 32°52'30" N, and by the meridians 96°52'30" and 97°00'00" W. The towns of Irving and Eagle Ford are in the area, as are portions of Grand Prairie and Arcadia Park. A network of paved highways and graveled roads makes most of the quadrangle readily accessible by automobile. Physiographically, this area is part of the Black Prairie, a province of low relief in which the landscape has been largely shaped by running water. West and Elm forks of …

Notes On The Turbellarian, Procotyla Fluviatilis Leidy, John Maxwell Anderson

Field and Laboratory

The observations here briefly presented should help solve a question in the literature, regarding the cocoon of Procotyla fluviatilis. The results also indicate that the breeding season of this species may be longer than heretofore reported. A few additional observations on the young worms, and on food habits of the adult are also included.

The Sweet Clovers (Melilotus) Of Texas, Joe F. Hennen

Field and Laboratory

The sweet clovers are of great economic importance in Texas as honey plants, soil builders, and forage crops, especially in the blackland prairie regions. Melilotus alba and its varieties are the most important.

Chagas Disease And Vectors In North Central Texas, Joe C. Elkins

Field and Laboratory

All members of the large hemipterous family Reduviidae are predacious, but only members of the subfamily Triatominae feed exclusively on vertebrate blood. Readio (1927) noted that Mr. J. R. Lembert observed the common Pacific Coast species of Triatoma feeding on carrion and excrement. Lutz (1918) reported that Triatoma sanguisuga LeConte feeds on insects, including grasshoppers and potato beetles. Apparently neither of the above accounts illustrate normal feeding habits.

The North Texas Species Of Hymenocallis (Amaryllidaceae), Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

The only recent descriptive account of the United States species of Hymenocallis is that by Small in his Manual of the Southeastern Flora (1933: several corrections of nomenclature are given by Morton, 1935). None of the 11 species there given is credited to Texas.

Ecological Studies In A Midwestern Range: The Vegetation And Effects Of Cattle On Its Composition And Distribution, J. E. Weaver, G. W. Tomanek

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

There is continued need for a better understanding of range vegetation and its use by range animals. Range preservation and improvement in the midwest are largely matters of wise use and proper management of our natural grasslands. A more comprehensive understanding of the range itself is needed--its forage, soil, and water supply, and factors influencing a proper distribution of livestock. The degree of utilization of forage that will result in the maintenance of excellent or good range condition and the improvement of a range in fair condition should be ascertained. Soil conservation on range lands is accomplished primarily by improvement …
