Item type: Item , An Account of the Species of the Red Alga Herposiphonia Occurring in the Central and Western Tropical Pacific Ocean(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Hollenberg, George J.Fourteen species of the genus Herposiphonia are described. The following species and varieties are new: H. armata, H. crassa, H. delicatula, H. dendroidea, H. dendroidea var. minor, H. dubia, H. nuda, H. obscura, H. parca var. interrupta, H. pacifica, H. trichia, H. variabilis. The distributional range is extended for H. parca, H. subdisticha, and H. tenella. H. secunda is reduced to a form of H. tenella. Emphasis is given to the nature and arrangement of trichoblasts and of sexual reproductive structures as features of taxonomic importance.Item type: Item , 22: Index - Pacific Science(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968)Item type: Item , Revision of the Genus Pandanus Stickman, Part 32 The New Section Involuta from Papua(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) St. John, HaroldItem type: Item , Revision of the Genus Pandanus Stickman, Part 31 Bornean Species Collected by J.

The eggs in the sacs, in various specimens, appeared at different stages of development, from the gastrular stage up to the eclosion of the larvae.Item type: Item , New Records of Thirteen Cottoid and Blennioid Fishes for Southeastern Alaska(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Quast, Jay C.Three categories of new records for species of fish are reported: (1) extensions of range eastward or southeastward from the Bering Sea or Gulf of Alaska-Hexagrammos octogrammus (Pallas), Artediellus pacificus Gilbert, Triglops metopias Gilbert and Burke, Anisarchus medius (Reinhardt), and Lumpenus fabricii (Valenciennes) ; (2) extensions of range northwestward-Arteditts harringtoni (Starks), Oligocottus snyderi Greeley, Scorpaenichthys marmoratus (Ayres), and Lipariscus nanus Gilbert; and (3) "fill-ins" for species already reported to the north and south of Southeastern Alaska-Artedius lateralis (Girard), Bothragonus swani (Steindachner), Chirolophus nugator (Jordan and Williams), and Scytalina cerdale Jordan and Gilbert.Item type: Item , On the Life History of Nereis grubei (Kinberg), a Polychaete Annelid from California(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Schroeder, Paul C.Item type: Item , The Ecology of the Replacement of Pseudosquilla ciliata (Fabricius) by Gonodactylus falcatus (Forskal) (Curstacea; Stomatopoda) Recently Introduced into the Hawaiian Islands(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Kinzie, Robert A. IIIItem type: Item , Soil Sequences in the Hawaiian Islands(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Sherman, G Donald; Ikawa, HaruyoshiItem type: Item , The Geology of the Manu'a Islands, Samoa(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10) Stice, Gary D.; McCoy, Floyd W Jr.The Manu'a Islands are a group of three islands-Ta'u, Ofu, and Olosega-that were built by volcanic activity along the crest of the easternmost portion of the Samoan Ridge. Ta'u Island represents the largest volcanic center, where aa and pahoehoe flows of non-porphyritic basalt, olivine basalt, pierite basalt, and feldspar-phyric basalts constructed a volcanic shield more than 3,000 feet above sea level. The present-day total thickness of this volcanic material is over 12,000 feet, as measured from the ocean floor to the summit of Ta'u, Lata Mountain (3,056 feet). Dips of the lava flows frequently exceed 30°, but average 20-25°. Summit collapse formed a caldera that became partially filled with ponded lavas and pyroclastic deposits which accumulated to a thickness of over 1,000 feet. From the summit area, two rift zones radiate to the northeast and northwest, the latter coinciding with the trend of the Samoan Ridge. Two smaller shields are located along these rift zones. Following a period of extensive erosion, the northeast corner of the island was built out by dunite-bearing lava flows, upon which the village of Fitiiuta now stands. A tuff complex containing large dunite xenoliths and coral blocks extended the northwest corner of the island near the village of Faleasao, burying a former sea cliff.Item type: Item , 22:4 Table of Contents - Pacific Science(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-10)
