Charles H. Smith, Ph.D. Early Classics in Biogeography, Distribution, and Diversity Studies: 1951 to 1975 is a bibliography and full-text archive designed as a service to advanced students and researchers engaged in work in biogeography, biodiversity, and related studies. All items in the bibliography are primary sources and were published from 1951 through 1975. The subjects involved touch on fields ranging from ecology, conservation, systematics and physical geography, to evolutionary biology, cultural biogeography, paleobiology, and bioclimatologybut have in common a relevance to the study of geographical distribution and diversity.

Research Publications John R. Bolt Curator : Department of Geology, The Field Museum Lecturer : Committee on Evolutionary Biology OFFICE : Department of Geology, The Field Museum PHONE : FAX : EMAIL : bolt@fmnh.org R esearch Interests: Current studies are focused on: (1) Relationships and morphology of primitive amphibians (as well as fish) from a new Mississippian (ca. 335 million years before present) locality in southeastern Iowa. The locality has produced hundreds of specimens of the oldest tetrapods known from continental North America. Complete specimen preparation will require several years. (2) Fossil evidence for the origin and early evolution of the tetrapod auditory system, and its implications for otic evolution as well as tetrapod relationships. (3) Origin and early evolution of the living amphibians (lissamphibians). I am interested in supervising graduate research on systematics, morphology, and biogeography of Paleozoic reptiles and amphibians. R ecent Publications : Bolt, J. R., 1983.

San Francisco State University Department of Geography Geography 316: Biogeography The Biogeography of Cereus giganteus by Alexandria Gross, student in Geography 316, Fall 1999 Kingdom: Plant Phylum: Class: Order Cactales Family Cactaceae Genus Cereus Species: Cereus giganteus Description of Species The saguaro cactus comes from the family Cactaceae; its order Cactales, the genre name is Cereus, and its species the Cereus giganteus. Further discussion on the taxonomy of the saguaro will be discussed in the family tree line section. In 1908 in honor of Andrew Carnegie, the species name was changed to Carnegiea gigantean (Klaus, 1997). Other common names for it are sahuaro and pitahaya (Klaus, 1997). The first description of the Saguaro was in 1848, describing it as a particular species with a huge columnar, candelabra shaped cactus growing to 18 meters in height, a diameter of 65 cm, and living as long as 200 years (Klaus, 1997) The plant has 12-24 ribs, with brown areoles; which are axillariy buds that immediately produces a cluster of spine primordial (Gibson and Nobel, 1986), spaced every 2cm. The spines are brown, 7 mm long and up to 12 are arranged radially per areole, with 3-6 of these being center spines. (Klaus, 1997) The saguaro is native to Arizona, southeastern California and the Sonoran Desert in Mexico. These particular biomes are extremely hot in temperature, which serves as an ideal environment for this plant, which is able to store and hold water for periods of time. The saguaro can also tolerate temperatures to well below freezing. (Gibson and Nobel, 1986.)

The evolutionary genetics group at the VUB is coordinated by Franky Bossuyt. Research almost exclusively deals with the use of phylogenies to address questions in evolutionary biology and historical biogeography. The taxonomic group of interest is mostly amphibians, but also includes crabs. If you are viewing this text, your browser lacks the ability to read frames. Don't worry, you can still enjoy our site.

For a small island the extinction rate should increase more rapidly (the line should be more vertical) as the number of species on the island increase because smaller islands have fewer potential habitats and resources to colonize. Larger islands should have a more horizontal extinction rate (relative to the number of species already there) because there are more potential habitats and resources to use. The slope of the exintinction curve, therefore, depends on the size of the island. The immigration curve for islands close to the source area should be fairly vertical because the potential immigrants should reach the island fairly rapidly and then fall off sharply as the number of potential new immigrant species from the source area decreases. Similarly islands far from the source area should have a more horizontal immigration curve because new immigrating species take longer to get to far away islands than to those closer into the source area.

Physical Geography Working Group The Virtual Geography Department Radford Geography Department Radford University Glossary for Biogeography NOTE: Terms are arranged according to the following subject categories: biogeography, ecology, evolution, landscape ecology, and taxonomy. This should not be taken to mean that any term is limited in use or definition to a particular discipline; the arrangement is a pedagogical device to help the beginning student in biogeography to make associations among various words and processes. Each term also may be accessed through the index at the end of this document. Biogeographic terminology Alien: a non-native species, especially one introduced to some part of the world through human action. Altitudinal zonation: the sorting of plant and animal species according to elevation in response to differences in temperature and precipitation patterns. Biogeography: the science that studies the distribution of life, past and present. Colonization: the establishment of a population in a place formerly unoccupied by that species. Colonization implies successful reproduction in the new area, not simply the presence of a species there. Dispersal: the transport of propagules beyond the limits of a species' distribution area Distribution area: the geographic range of a taxon.

LEB Home References A-D References E-G References H-K ... References T-Z References BIOARCHAEOLOGICAL REFERENCES Bioarchaeology is the field that attempts to identify and interpret biological remains from archaeological sites in terms of human usage, biogeography, and paleoecology. In a field as broad as bioarchaeology, numerous sources of information are necessary. The bibliography accessed from this page includes information on classification, identification, distribution, human usages, archaeology (particularly of the Southwest), and other subjects. The bibliography was put together several years ago and lacks some more recent titlesit will be updated from time to time. The immediate push toward getting this bibliography online was the scheduling of the Bioarchaeology (Biology 3426) course for the spring of 1999. This seemed to be a good opportunity to add to the Laboratory for Environmental Biology's services to the scientific community by making the bibliography open to any viewer even though the web-based portion of the course itself was open only by password. Use the menu to the left to access the alphabetical segments of the bibliography. If you are looking for a specific author, use the "Find" function of your browser once you are in the proper segment.
