It's free! Save it. J. V. REMSEN, JR.,1,4 JAMES A. KUSHLAN,2 AND BETTE A. LOISELLE3 We do not intend to impugn the thoughtfulness of non-ornithological colleagues-only to explore the complexity of the modern scientific publishing world. We ornithologists are so accustomed to associating the name "Auk" with our most prestigious journal that it may be difficult to appreciate the perception of this journal name per se outside of ornithology. To see this point, what if you were asked to evaluate two candidates, one who published in Fritillary, Skipper, Swallowtail, and Wood Nymph, contrasted with one who published in Journal of Lepidopteran Biology and Lepidopteran Science? Would this not bias your evaluation at some level? When evaluating a prospective major professor, graduate student, job candidate, or tenure candidate, would you be more impressed with a reprint from the Limpet or the Journal of Malacology?

It's free! Save it. In addition to these new features, I am reviving the Commentary section with periodic invited commentaries to highlight hot topics in ornithology. This issue of the journal, for example, contains invited commentaries on a possible name change for The Auk. A vigorous campaign has emerged to change the name of The Auk. Part of this process involves changing the Bylaws to provide a mechanism for changing the journal name. The proposed Bylaws changes were preliminarily approved by the Fellows at the 115th Stated Meeting and are printed in this issue of The Auk. A final vote on these Bylaws changes will occur at the 116th Stated Meeting. The future name of our journal is undecided, but the desire for a change is strong. These commentaries provide "pro" and "con" sides to the possible name change to aid discussion of this important issue. Readers are welcome to suggest additional topics for future Commentaries.

85. On The General Geographical Distribution Of The Members Of The Class Aves, By Ph On the general Geographical Distribution of the Members of the Class Aves The characteristic forms of African ornithology are very p. 139 numerous. http://www.wku.edu/~smithch/biogeog/SCLA1858.htm

http://www.wku.edu/~smithch/biogeog/SCLA1858.htm On the General Geographical Distribution of the Members of the Class Aves by Philip Lutley Sclater (1858) Editor Charles H. Smith's Note: Sclater's paper was a milestone in the history of systematic zoogeography because it outlined a basic and rational system of world geographical faunal units. These "realms" are still commonly referred to today, in part because of the strong support lent to their use by Alfred Russel Wallace. Original pagination indicated within double brackets. Citation: Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society: Zoology [[p. 130]] In the Physical Atlases lately published, which have deservedly attracted no small share of attention on the part of the public, too little regard appears to have been paid to the fact that the divisions of the earth's surface usually employed are not always those [[p. 131]] But the fact is, we require a far more extended knowledge [[p. 132]]

A concise atlas of avian anatomy, it contains more than 200 specially prepared, accurate, and clear drawings that include material never illustrated before. The text is as informative as the drawings; written at a level appropriate to undergraduate students and to bird lovers in general, it explains why birds look and act the way they do.

Ornithology Section - Home page LNHS Ornithological Recorders Checklist of Birds of the London Area Gazetteer of LBR Sites Ornithological Weblinks General Introduction to London Ornithology The area of Greater London is covered by the London Natural History Society who publish the London Bird Report. The report being based on a 20 mile radius from St Pauls Cathedral has covered the same area since its first publication. It therefore extends into parts of Berks/Bucks, Essex, Herts, Kent and Surrey. The report covers an area of Surrey, that was previously in Middlesex which is not covered by the Surrey Bird Report (which is based on the old vice County of Surrey). The report also covers other small areas that are omitted from other reports due to county boundary changes, but also overlaps with the bird reports covering these respective Counties. The East, both north and south of the Thames is dominated by the remaining Thames-side marshes which still attract, but in much reduced numbers Raptors, Owls and other coastal species. The north is dominated by the Lea Valley with its complex of Gravel Pits and Reservoirs. The West by the gravel pit complexes in the Colne Valley and the West London and Surrey reservoirs and adjacent gravel pits that extend from the M4, south-west towards Molesey. The south is primarily known for Beddington SF, which is in the slow process of being turned into a Country Park, and remains to be seen whether ornithologically it will remain as important as it is at present.

Update: Jun., 3, 2004 Message from the Director General NEW The Yamashina Institute for Ornithology started as a private museum that Dr. Yoshimaro Yamashina built in 1932 in his garden in Shibuya, Tokyo to store his collection of bird specimens and books. Wishing to share his collection with everyone interested in birds, he opened his museum in 1942 as an institute under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education. It is now established as ornithological center and in 1984 moved to the present location in Abiko, Chiba, about 30 km north-east of Tokyo. Dr. Yoshimaro Yamashina, the founder of the Yamashina Institute for Ornithology, was born on July fifth, 1900 as the second son of Prince Kikumaro Yamashina. After graduating from Tokyo University, he continued his study of ornithology and in 1942, received Ph.D. for his unique research on bird taxonomy based on chromosomes. Later, while continuing his academic career, he also worked enthusiastically for the protection of birds in Japan. He received many awards, including the 4th Delacour Medal, which is sometimes called the "Nobel Prize in Ornithology". He died in 1989. @Research Division Analyzing nucleotide sequenes at a laboratory Bird Systematics Laboratory studies genetic variation of rare bird population and molecular systematics, mainly using DNA sequencing method.

Bookstore Revised Professional Certification Program Table of Contents Introduction Program History Certification Description Minimum Degree and Experience Requirements for Certified Fisheries Professionals ... Acknowledgements Introduction Certification is widely practiced by the professions as one means of setting standards and guidelines for professional competence. It serves to upgrade the professional image and is a mark of accomplishment. Certification also is a mechanism to demonstrate responsible peer evaluation. The specific objectives of certification are as follows: (1) to provide governmental and nongovernmental agencies and organizations, private firms, courts, and the general public with a definitive standard of experience and education for fisheries professionals; and (2) to foster broader recognition of fisheries professionals as well-educated and experienced, acting in the best interest of the public. The American Fisheries Society has worked to advance conservation of fishes and aquatic resources in North America for more than a century. With more than 8,000 members, the society promotes educational, scientific, and technological development of all facets of fisheries science and management.
