    Berger, Andrew J (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1972-09)
    The Kilauea Forest Reserve is notable for the island of Hawaii because it provides habitat for at least nine species of endemic birds, of which six species are members of the Hawaiian Honeycreeper family (Drepanididae): ...
  • The cavernicolous fauna of Hawaiian lava tubes, Part VII. Emesinae or thread-legged bugs (Heteroptera: Redvuiidae)

    This paper describes the world's second troglobitic heteropteran, Nesidiolestes sp., and presents notes on its biology. The species is restricted to the dark zones of high altitude lava tubes on Hawaii Island. Body ...
  • The cavernicolous fauna of Hawaiian lava tubes, Part VI. Mesoveliidae or water treaders (Heteroptera) 
    Gagne, Wayne C; Howarth, Francis G (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-05)
    This paper is a systematic report and a biological analysis of the Mesoveliidae from Hawaiian caves. Most important is a new species of Speovelia Esaki, S. sp. (Hawaii I.), described from material collected on moist walls ...
  • Climate data for the IBP sites on Mauna Loa, Hawaii 
    Bridges, Kent W; Carey, G Virginia (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-05)
    This report contains the second set of Tables and Figures for the climatic data collected at the US/IBP Island Ecosystems IRP field sites on Mauna Loa, Hawaii. The majority of these data were collected during 1973 using ...
  • The climate of the IBP sites on Mauna Loa, Hawaii 
    Bridges, Kent W; Carey, G Virginia (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-04)
    This supplement contains the first set of Tables and Figures for the climatic data collected at the US/IBP Island Ecosystems IRP field sites on Mauna Loa, Hawaii. The period covered by these data starts with the inception ...
  • Ecogeographical variations of chromosomal polymorphism in Hawaiian populations of Drosophila immigrans 
    Paik, Yong K; Sung, Kee C (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program Reports, 1973-02)
    Eighteen samples from twelve populations of Drosophila immigrans in the islands of Kauai, Oahu and Hawaii in the Hawaiian archipelago were analyzed for inversion polymorphism in 1125 females and 206 males. Three kinds of ...
  • Ecological studies of Ctenosciara hawaiiensis (Hardy) (Diptera: Sciaridae) 
    Steffan, Wallace A (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1972-08)
    The seasonal fluctuations of Ctenosciara hawaiiensis (Hardy) populations in two different ecosystems at the same elevation on Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii are compared and correlated with fluctuations in rainfall, ...
  • Ecological studies on Hawaiian lava tubes 
    Howarth, Francis G (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1972-12)
    The Hawaiian Islands offer great potential for evolutionary research. The discovery of specialized cavernicoles among the adaptively radiating fauna adds to that potential. About 50 lava tubes and a few other types of caves ...
  • Effects of microclimatic changes on oogenesis of Drosophila mimica 
    Kambysellis, Michael P (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-05)
    The reproductive mode of Drosophila mimica, a species endemic to the island of Hawaii, was determined by analyzing the ovarian development of three natural populations during a nine month period. Qualitatively the developmental ...
  • EZplot: a computer program which allows easy use of a line plotter 
    Bridges, Kent W (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-08)
    This technical report describes the use of a computer program (called EZPLOT) which has been written to allow easy use of a computer-driven line plotter. This program has been designed to provide a simple set of commands ...
