Περι Κινουμενης Σφαιρας And Περι Επιτολων Και Δυσεων; Or De Sphaera Quae Movetur And De Ortibus Et Occasibus; Or On The Moving Sphere And On Risings And Settings, Autolycus Of Pitane, Joseph Mogenet , Editor

Electronic Reference Materials

This document contains the Greek texts of the two known works by Autolycus of Pitane: ΠΕΡΙ ΚΙΝΟΥΜΕΝΗΣ ΣΦΑΙΡΑΣ and ΠΕΡΙ ΕΠΙΤΟΛΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΔΥΣΕΩΝ, known in Latin as De sphaera quae movetur and De ortibus et occasibus, and in English as On the Moving Sphere and On Risings and Settings.

Autolycus was a contemporary of Aristotle (384–322 BCE) and his works are thought to have been completed in Athens within the years 335 and 300 BCE, making him also a rough contemporary of Euclid of Alexandria (fl. c. 300 BCE).

The texts are taken from the standard modern edition, …

A Contribution To The Study Of North American Strigeids (Trematoda), Robert L. Rausch, George Dubois

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

The material upon which this study is based was collected in the states of Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin, and consisted entirely of avian parasites. The laboratory work was executed mainly at the Institut de Zoologie of the Université de Neuchâtel (Switzerland). We take this opportunity to thank Dr. Jean G. Baer for making available to us his material and working space.
Fourteen species have been identified, of which 7 are new: Strigea falconis Szidat, Diplostomum gavium (Guberlet), Strigea macroconophora n. sp., Diplostomum repandum n. sp., Apharyngostrigea cornu (Zeder), Mesoophorodiplostomum pricei (Krull), Apatemon gracilis (Rudolphi), Neodiplostomum buteonis n. sp., Cotylurus aquavis …

Studies On Some North American Shrew Cestodes, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

In spite of the importance of the various species of shrews to the biotic community, several aspects of their ecology remain very incompletely known. The helminths parasitic in the more conspicuous small mammals in North America have been studied more or less completely, but those occurring in shrews have been largely disregarded. This situation is particularly inappropriate when one considers that shrews often constitute the most abundant mammalian group in a given area. We have attempted to secure an adequate amount of shrew helminth material for study, and it is the purpose of this paper to present observations resulting from …

An Ecological Study Of Helminths Of Some Wyoming Voles (Microtus Spp.) With A Description Of A New Species Of Nematospiroides (Heligmosomidae: Nematoda), Merle L. Kuns, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

An ecological and taxonomic study of the helminth parasites of voles (Microtus spp.) in the Jackson Hole region of Wyoming is reported.

Nematospiroides microti n. sp. from Microtus montanus nanus and M. richardsoni macropus is described and figured.

A cestode, Paranoplocephala infrequens, and a nematode, Syphacia obvelata, were generally distributed throughout the region in all habitats except the sage flats.

A trematode, Quinqueserialis hassalli, was recovered only from voles collected near streams at low altitudes. This was presumably due to the localized distribution of the molluscan intermediate host.

Four helminths, viz., Hymenolepis horrida, Heligmosomum costellatum …

The Structure And Reproduction Of Corn, T. A. Kiesselbach

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The primary purpose of this paper is to summarize investigations concerning the structure and reproduction of the corn plant (Zea mays L.). Because of wide interest in the reproductive process in connection with breeding and genetic studies the floral development, fertilization, and embryology are especially stressed. The morphology and development of the vegetative organs is also included. The botanical relationship, origin, genetics and breeding of corn are briefly considered.

Observations Of The Life Cycle And Larval Development Of Paruterina Candelabraria (Goeze, 1782) (Cestoda: Dilepididae), Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Paruterina candelabraria (Goeze, 1782) is parasitic in owls in Europe and North America, and appears to be the most frequently encountered cestode occurring in strigiform birds (Wolffhugel, 1900; Rausch, 1948). It is the purpose of this paper to present observations on the larval development and life cycle of P. candelabraria. Apparently nothing is known concerning the life cycles of cestodes of the genus Paruterina Fuhrmann, 1906, most of which occur in passeriform birds.

A Filter Paper "Chromatopile", Herschel Mitchell, Francis A. Haskins

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

The application of one- and two-dimensional paper chromatography to the separation of small amounts of many kinds of compounds has become a well-established and useful technique (1, 2, 3, 5, 6). In general these methods do not handle sufficiently large quantities of materials for isolation and chemical identification. Large columns of starch and other materials have been used satisfactorily for handling larger quantities of mixtures (4). Starch columns proved to be unsatisfactory, how- ever, for isolation of certain substances under investigation in this laboratory. As a consequence, a new and simple apparatus and technique have been developed, using …

Signal Corps Technical Intelligence, A Brief History, Chester A. Hall Capt., Robert Bolin , Depositor

United States Department of Defense Military Intelligence

At the time that this was written, technical intelligence was intelligence about foreign weapons and equipment and about organizations in foreign armies analogous to the technical services. The modern US Army vision of the technical intelligence developed during World War II. The army technical services became responsible for technical intelligence. The technical services were bureaus which supplied weapons, equipment, and services to the army, managed the careers of officers in a particular branch, trained specialists, and organized and trained special purpose military units. There were a number of technical services including the Chemical Warfare Service, the Medical Department, the Ordnance …

Pink Rot Of Potatoes Caused By Phytophthora Erythroseptica Pethyb., R. W. Goss

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

During the summer of 1943 reports were received of rotted tubers occurring in fields of early potatoes in central Nebraska. An estimated 10 per cent of the tubers were found rotted in some fields on August 5. In November and December of the same year the late-producing area of western Nebraska reported the occurrence, at harvest and in storage, of tuber rots differing from those previously recorded for that area. Specimens appeared similar to those observed during the summer in central Nebraska. Isolations were made and pathogenicity tests were conducted both on tubers and growing plants to study the influence …

A Critical Study Of North American Cestodes Of The Genus Andrya With Special Reference To A. Macrocephala Douthitt, 1915. (Cestoda: Anoplocephalidae), Robert L. Rausch, Everett Schiller

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Eight species of cestodes belonging to the genus Andrya Railliet, 1883, have been described from North American rodents. To the present time, 6 of these have been considered valid (A. primordialis Douthitt, 1915; A. macrocephala Douthitt, 1915; A. neotomae Voge, 1946; A. microti Hansen, 1947; A. sciuri Rausch, 1947; A. ondatrae Rausch, 1948). The genus Andrya was separated by Kirschenblatt (1938) into two subgenera, depending upon the presence or absence of a prostate gland. Of the North American species, only one (A. primordialis) possesses a prostate gland. Since we are concerned essentially with the other 5 closely-related …
