  • Corn, Carolyn A; Hiesey, William M (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-02)
    Hawaiian Metrosideros distribution extends from tropical to cool-temperature climates throughout the six major islands of the Hawaiian Island chain. It forms a highly polymorphic complex that occurs in a continuous ...
  • Leeper, John R; Beardsley, J W (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-04)
    Psylla uncatoides is a recent accidental introduction to the Hawaiian Islands. Its population densities are closely tied to the flush phenology of Acacia spp. The psyllid was studied on Acacia koa on the southeastern slope ...
  • MacMillen, Richard E (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1972-08)
    Insular biotas have attracted considerable biological attention, and have been very important in the formulation of evolutionary thought and theory. Since Charles Darwin's visit to the Galapagos Islands and his description ...
  • Berger, Andrew J (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1972-08)
    The dominant and subdominant plants are listed for 10 major vegetational and climatic areas within Volcanoes National Park. These areas are located at elevations between 1,400 and 10,000 feet. Information on the birds found ...
  • 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): ...
  • Gagne, Wayne C; Howarth, Francis G (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-07)
    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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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, ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • Berger, Andrew J; Gressitt, J Linsley; Mueller-Dombois, Dieter (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1970-12)
    The Hawaii subprogram of the U.S. Contribution to IBP was funded six months ago, in June 1970. It is one of three subprograms of the "Origin and Structure of Ecosystems Integrated Research Program" under the directorship ...
  • Hardy, D Elmo; Delfinado, Mercedes D (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-02)
    The flightless dolichopodid fly being described here was recovered from leaf litter samples collected in native forest on the island of Hawaii, at 5100 ft. on Saddle Road, 19°40132" N latitude and 155°20 130" E longitude ...
  • Wirawan, Nengah (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-01)
    Almost all species recorded 20 years ago from seven plots of native dry forest stands at Mokuleia are still found in their respective plots. Except in two plots, almost all the dominant native species are regenerating and ...
  • Mueller-Dombois, D; Bridges, K (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-03)
    This document is the fourth annual progress report of the ISLAND ECOSYSTEMS STABILITY AND EVOLUTION Subprogram of the U. S. International Biological Program (IBP). It covers the period from February 1973 through February ...
  • Lloyd, Robert M (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1974-02)
    Sporophytes from natural populations of ferns occupying pioneer lava and mature rainforest habitats on the island of Hawaii, Hawaiian Islands, were investigated to determine their mating system and frequency of recessive ...
  • Porter, John R (Island Ecosystems IRP, U.S. International Biological Program, 1973-08)
    The growth and phenology of three principal varieties of Hawaiian Metrosideros were examined. All varieties have an annual flowering cycle extending over several months, usually peaking in spring or summer. The peaks of ...
