Bannereus anomalus, New Genus, New Species, A Deep-Sea Alpheid Shrimp from the Coral Sea

Bruce, AJ (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

An alpheid shrimp, Bannereus anomalus, new genus, new species, from the Marian Plateau in the Coral Sea is described here. The shrimps are associates of hexactinellid sponges from depths of about 350 m, an alpheid association ...
Body Size and Differential Mating Success between Males of Two Populations of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly

Arita, Lorna H; Kaneshiro, Kenneth Y (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Mate preference experiments were conducted between males from two populations of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata, to investigate the effect of body size on mating success. The results of the experiment indicate ...
Cascading Chromosomal Speciation in Lizards: A Second Look

Sites, Jack W Jr; Thompson, Pamela; Porter, Calvin A (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

The extent of Robertsonian chromosomal variation in the iguanid lizard Sceloporus grammicus of Mexico is exceptional among lower vertebrates, and this case has been the basis for the cascading chromosomal speciation ...
A Catalog of Zoological Specimens Collected from Tuvalu (Ellice Islands) by Sixten Bock, 1917

Rodgers, KA; Olerod, R (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Collections of Hydrozoa, Turbellaria, Pol ychaeta, Isopoda, Amphipoda, Decapoda, Stomatopoda, Polyplacophora, Prosobranchia, Opistho branchia, Bivalvia, Cephalopoda, and Holothuroidea were made from Nanumanga, Nui, ...
Constitutive Heterochromatin Differentiation and Evolutionary Divergence of Karyotype in Oriental Anopheles (Cellia)

Baimai, Visut (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Analysis of the mitotic karyotype of two clusters of closely related species of oriental Anopheles, the A . balabacensis and A. maculatus complexes, has revealed interspecific differences in the amount and distribution ...
Contrasting Patterns of Differentiation Inferred from Traditional Genetic Markers in the Process of Speciation

Sene, Fabio Melo; Pereira, Maria Augusta Querubim Rodrigues; Vilela, Carlos Ribeiro (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Populations of Drosophila serido from various geographic origins were characterized using four markers: morphology of male genitals, inversions in polytene chromosomes, morphology and heterochromatin of metaphase chromosomes, ...
Denudation Rates of the Hawaiian Islands by Rivers and Groundwaters

Li, Yuan-Hui (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

The carbonic acid produced by the microbial oxidation of organic matter is the most important chemical weathering agent of the Hawaiian basaltic rocks. The total denudation rate of the Hawaiian Islands ranges from 11 to ...
Evolutionary Relationships of the Hawaiian and North American Telmatogeton (Insecta; Diptera: Chironomidae)

Newman, Lester J (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Species of Telmatogeton and the closely related genus Paraclunio generally live on the rocky shores of the intertidal zone. Species of Telmatogeton have evolved from the marine environment into torrential freshwater streams ...
The Extinction of Partula on Moorea

Murray, James; Murray, Elizabeth; Johnson, Michael S; Clarke, Bryan (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Land snails of the genus Partula from the island of Moorea in French Polynesia have for more than a century pro vided a natural laboratory for the study of variation, genetic polymorphism, and speciation. As a result ...
Growth, Regeneration, and Damage Repair of Spines of the Slate-Pencil Sea Urchin Heterocentrotus mammillatus (L.) (Echinodermata: Echinoidea )

Ebert, Thomas A (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Spines of sea urchins are appendages that are associated with defense, locomotion, and food gathering. Spines are repaired when damaged, and the dynamics of repair was studied in the slate-pencil sea urchin Heterocentr ...
Identification of Mullerian Chromosomal Elements in Hawaiian Drosophila by in situ DNA Hybridization

Jeffery, Duane E; Farmer, James L; Pliley, Michael (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

We have hybridized Drosophila melanogaster DNA sequences to polytene chromosomes of D. silvestris. The results support Muller's hypothesis that the chromosomal elements have been largely conserved in the evolution of ...

Lysocline, Calcium Carbonate Compensation Depth, and Calcareous Sediments in the North Pacific Ocean

Chen, CTA; Feely, RA; Gendron, JF (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

An extensive oceanographic investigation has been carried out in the North Pacific Ocean. The purpose of this report is to present the results of two cruises in which we participated and to report additional carbonate ...
Mating Asymmetries and Phylogeny in the Drosophila melanogaster Species Complex

Robertson, Hugh M (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

The propensities for interspecific courtship and mating among the four species of the Drosophila melanogaster species complex were studied to examine Kaneshiro's hypothesis relating asymmetrical interspecific mating ...
The Occurrence of Lymphocystis in a New Host Species, Sargocentron punctatissimum Cuvier and Valenciennes, Collected and Maintained in Hawaii

Anderson, Beth E; Brock, James A; Hayashi, Takuji; Teruya, Stephanie; Nakagawa, Lauren K (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Seven specimens of squirrelfish, Sargocentron punctatissimum Cuvier and Valenciennes, collected from Allen Davis Beach Park, Oahu, Hawaii, developed lymphocystis lesions while being maintained at the Waikiki Aquarium. Four ...
On Defining Species in Terms of Sterility: Problems and Alternatives

Paterson, Hugh (University of Hawaii Press, 1988)

Despite its historic role as a criterion of species status, intersterility sensu lato is not an acceptable characteristic for delineating the genetic species or field of gene recombination. This conclusion is not new ...
