Carboniferous Formations Of The Ozark Region, Charles R. Keyes Jan 1897

Carboniferous Formations Of The Ozark Region, Charles R. Keyes

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The term Ozark, as now generally understood, applies to all the broad dome-shaped and mountaineous area, lying in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas chiefly, and extending from the Red to the Missouri River, and from the Mississippi to the Neosho. In this sense the name is used in the present connection. For a long time the Ozark uplift remained a region about which less was known geologically, than perhaps any other part of the North American continent. Of recent years, however, so many new facts have been obtained concerning the formations of the northern part of the area that a …

The Interglacial Deposits Of Northeastern Iowa, Samuel Calvin Jan 1897

The Interglacial Deposits Of Northeastern Iowa, Samuel Calvin

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The interglacial deposits of northeastern Iowa embrace the peat and forest bed which has been known to well diggers since the early settlement of the region, but which, for this region, was first brought prominently to the attention of science by the writings of McGee, and the Buchanan gravels of Calvin. These deposits represent two distinct horizons in the glacial series. The Pleistocene formations of northeastern Iowa have received more or less attention from geologists since first the region was traversed by Owen. The great Iowan boulders of this region impressed Owen as they have impressed every intelligent observer since, …

The Weathered Zone (Sangamon) Between The Iowan Loess And Illinoian Till Sheet, Frank Leverett Jan 1897

The Weathered Zone (Sangamon) Between The Iowan Loess And Illinoian Till Sheet, Frank Leverett

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The Illinoian till sheet here discussed was formed by the Illinois glacial lobe in connection with the maximum extension of that lobe. It seems quite well established that a lobe on the east, which covered southeastern Indiana and southwestern Ohio, and extended a short distance into Kentucky, also had its culmination at the Illinoian stage of glaciation. Farther east the Wisconsin sheet in many places reaches the glacial boundary, but there are small tracts of drift older than the Wisconsin, lying outside its limits in eastern Ohio, northwestern and northeastern Pennsylvania, and northern New Jersey, which may prove to be …

Notes On The Flora Of Northeastern Iowa, T. J. Fitzpatrick Jan 1897

Notes On The Flora Of Northeastern Iowa, T. J. Fitzpatrick

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The following notes are the result of a series of studies made during the summer of 1895 when the writer passed down the Upper Iowa River from Decorah to its mouth and thence down the Mississippi River to Muscatine, examining en route the floras of Winneshiek, Allamakee, Clayton, Dubuque, Jackson, Clinton and Scott Counties. Much field work was done by collecting specimens and taking notes. The writer received aid subsequently in the examination of a collection from Winneshiek County made by Herbert Goddard of Decorah, Iowa. All the rare or infrequent species mentioned in the following list are represented in …

The President's Address, Thomas H. Macbride Jan 1897

The President's Address, Thomas H. Macbride

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

When, a short time ago, I was advised by our indefatigable secretary that by virtue of having been chosen vice-president of this body, the duty of making the presidential address fell to my share, I was somewhat disconcerted. I was at first inclined to push my honors from me and to say that inasmuch as no time remained for the preparation of a suitable discourse, the presiding officer would simply waive his prerogative in that particular and pass to the next order of business.

Notes On Coccidae Occurring In Iowa, Herbert Osborn Jan 1897

Notes On Coccidae Occurring In Iowa, Herbert Osborn

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Aside from the interest attaching to this family of the Homoptera as a remarkably specialized group of insects, the fact that it includes some of the most destructive insects affecting woody plants, and that one member of the family, the San Jose scale, is at present spreading rapidly throughout the eastern United States, and a most serious menace to the fruit interests of Iowa, is sufficient reason for giving it a special notice at this time. It seems also unnecessary to apologize for including in this article some matter for the use of teachers, students, and others who may be …

Degradation Of Loess, J. E. Todd Jan 1897

Degradation Of Loess, J. E. Todd

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

One of the most difficult problems connected with the loess is to explain its blanket-like distribution, by which it appears to be continuous over high and low altitudes alike.

Histology Of The Corn Leaf, Robert Combs Jan 1897

Histology Of The Corn Leaf, Robert Combs

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The stem bears lateral organs, the leaves. These occur at definite points, the nodes, and originate in an exogeneous manner. The leaf arises in the form of a papilla and is not covered by the superficial tissue as the root is. The mature leaf is divided into two parts, the blade and the sheath. At the base of the blade occurs the membranaceous ligule. The veins of the leaf are parallel and are continuous with those of the sheath. The vascular bundles of the sheath connect with those of the stem. The function of the leaf is the preparation of …

The Myxomycetes Of The Black Hills, Thomas H. Macbride Jan 1897

The Myxomycetes Of The Black Hills, Thomas H. Macbride

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The species listed here were collected during the month of August, 1897, and represent the rather hasty gathering of a traveler who could not remain long enough at one place to do thorough work. The number of species ought to be extended to three times that here offered, and probably will be ere many seasons pass.

Additions To The List Of Hemiptera Of Iowa, With Descriptions Of New Species, Herbert Osborn Jan 1897

Additions To The List Of Hemiptera Of Iowa, With Descriptions Of New Species, Herbert Osborn

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A number of additions to the Hemipterous fauna of the state have been made during the last year, either by collection or by the determination or description of specimens previously in hand, and although there are certainly many others to add it seems desirable to record such as have come to notice. In many cases the record greatly extends the range of the species as heretofore known.

Some Preglacial Soils, J. A. Udden Jan 1897

Some Preglacial Soils, J. A. Udden

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In the region south of the Wisconsin Driftless area an old soil is occasionally found under the Kansan drift, generally resting on the bed rock, and often associated with laminated water-bedded clay and other silt. It is exposed under a bluff of drift in the southern part of Muscatine, Iowa. The material is here dark brown in color, mottled with small black fragments of vegetable tissue. The upper part is a dark mucky clay. The whole bed is only two or three inches in thickness. It lies below what appears to be pre-Kansan drift.
