ItemConsiderations Regarding the Evolution of Hawaiian Animals(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-04)Interest in biotas of oceanic islands is of long standing. There are several reasons for the continuing interest. One is the possibility that insular evolution may in some respects represent a small-scale model of what has occurred on continents. Another is that, despite all the work on the subject, the "hows" and the "whys" of insular evolution remain inadequately answered. Finally, there is the realization that, with the rapid decimation of native insular habitats, it will soon be impossible to study many aspects of the subject (Hubbell, 1967).

ItemThe Occurrence of Cyclops kolensis Lilljeborg (Copepoda, Cyclopoida) in North America(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-04)Cyclops kolensis was named by Lilljeborg in 1901; in the intervening 60 odd years, it has been infrequently reported in the literature. Kozminski (1933) noted that although C. kolensis is one of the most widely distributed species "in our region" it had been forgotten until recent years when he and Rzoska (1 930) independently mentioned it in revisions of certain groups of Cyclops.

ItemAn Account of the Species of the Red Alga Polysiphonia of the Central and Western Tropical Pacific Ocean: II. Polysiphonia(University of Hawai'i Press, 1968-04)Seven polysiphonous species are described. Three species are new: Polysiphonia dotyi, P. pentamera, and P. tsudana. P. howei proves to be a very widely distributed species. P. exilis and P. tepida were previously known from the tropical Atlantic Ocean. P. homoia was previously known from the Pacific coast of Mexico. Of the polysiphonous species of Polysiphonia represented by the present study, none are corticated.
