Diversity in Intertidal Habitats: An Assessment of the Marine Algae of Select High Islands in the Hawaiian Archipelago

Smith, Celia M (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Quantitative and qualitative sampling of intertidal algal assemblages on a limestone bench (O'ahu) and basalt benches (O'ahu and Hawai'i) resulted in enumeration of more than 100 species of macrophytic and turf species on ...
Environmental Control of Holocene Changes to the World's Most Northern Hermatypic Coral Outcrop

Veron, JEN (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Tateyama, near Tokyo (35° N lat.), is the site of the world's most northern occurrence of living hermatypic corals and is also the site (in the Numa beds) of a substantial outcrop of Holocene fossil corals with a radiocarbon ...
Geographic Patterns of Diversity in Benthic Marine Algae

Silva, Paul C (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Study of the geography of benthic marine algae has traditionally taken the form of descriptions of floras, analyses of floras in terms of floristic components, comparison of the flora and vegetation of one area with that ...
Marine Phytogeography of the Juan Fernandez Archipelago: A New Assessment

Santelices, B (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

A new assessment of the geographic affinities of the marine algae of the Juan Fernandez Archipelago indicates a flora with a small number of species and very high endemism (about 30%) as compared to other oceanic islands ...

Koske, RE; Gemma, JN; Doyle, MF (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Eight collections of the endemic Hawaiian angiosperm Gunnera petaloidea ssp. kauaiensis were examined for mycorrhizae. Soil-inhabiting roots of all specimens possessed extensive vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae 01AM). Aerial ...
New Taxa of Ceramieae (Rhodophyta) from Hawai'i

Norris, Richard E; Abbott, Isabella A (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

A new genus and five new species belonging in the Ceramieae have been found in recent analyses of the Hawaiian Ceramiaceae. Ardreanema, the new genus, is a microscopic plant having a simple moniliform structure with ...
Observations on Egg Hatching in the Estuarine Crab Sesarma haematocheir

Saigusa, Masayuki (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

A female of the terrestrial crab Sesarma haematoeheir incubates 30,000-50,000 eggs on her abdomen. After 1 month of embryonic development, zoeae larvae are released into estuarine waters within 3-5 sec by means of ...
Symposium on Marine Diversity and Biogeography in the Tropics. Pacific Science Congress, May-June 1991, Honolulu

Abbott, Isabella A (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Seven persons were asked to discuss the diversity and biogeography of various groups of marine organisms from as wide a geographic span as possible in the warm Pacific. The organisms covered were marine algae, marine ...
William T Brigham's Hawaiian Birds and a Possible Historical Record of Ciridops anna (Aves: Drepanidini) from Molokai

Olson, Storrs L (University of Hawai'i Press, 1992-10)

Two of the five known specimens of the extinct Hawaiian bird Ciridops anna (Dole, 1878) came to the Museum of Comparative Zoology with a small collection of Hawaiian birds of unknown origin. Historical evidence is marshaled ...
