If specimens are carefully collected and placed in a jar of sea water and sand, they make interesting exhibits in the schoolroom or laboratory. chapter xxxvii. plants and animals from the coral reef: part two. The Hawaiian reefs abound in representatives of the phylum, i including such odd and diverse animals as the starfish, sea-urchins, brittle-stars and the sea-cucumbers. The curious bleached white skeletons of the sea-urchins, with the beautiful lace-like pattern pierced in fine holes over the biscuit-shaped shell or test, are among the objects picked up with shells and seaweed on the sand beach. They are hardly to be recognized, however, as the remains of the spiny sea-urchin so often stepped on by incautious bathers. They arc the "hedge-hogs" of the sea, since the numerous calcareous plates forming the shell are covered in the several species with variously-shaped spines. These spines serve the ina, as the sea-urchins are called by the natives, as a means of protection, and in certain species they are used to assist in boring the burrows often inhabited by them in the solid rock below low-tide. Sea-urchtns. The common forms are a black species,2 or ina eleele, and a whitish form,3 ina keokeo. They both are very plentiful on the coral reefs about Honolulu and are gathered and eaten by the natives. If one is taken alive from its hiding place beneath the loose stones on the outer edge of the reef and examined, the spines will be found to move on a ball-and-socket joint.

Download or read book Hawaiian Plant Life written by Robert J. Gustafson and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2014-10-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawaiian Plant Life has been written with both the layperson and professional interested in Hawai‘i’s natural history and flora in mind. In addition to significant text describing landforms and vegetation, the evolution of Hawaiian flora, and the conservation of native species, the book includes almost 875 color photographs illustrating nearly two-thirds of native Hawaiian plant species as well as a concise description of each genus and species shown. The work can be used either as a stand-alone reference or as a companion to the two-volume Manual of the Flowering Plants of Hawai‘i. Learning more about threatened and endangered plants is essential to conserving them, and there is no more endangered flora in the world today than that of the Hawaiian Islands. Striking species complexes such as the silverswords and the remarkable lobeliads represent unique stories of adaptive radiation that make the Hawai‘i a living laboratory for evolution. Public appreciation for Hawaiian biodiversity requires outreach and education that will determine the future conservation of this rich heritage, and Hawaiian Plant Life has been designed to help fill that need.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Shore Fishes of Hawai‘i updates our knowledge of Hawaiian fishes and has been expanded to include 372 species. All are illustrated by the author’s 475 superb photographs. The most important characteristics to identify a fish are given as well as the size attained and its distribution. Each species account begins with the American common name, followed by the Hawaiian name (when known), and the scientific name. Because it is necessary to use some scientific terminology when giving the principal diagnostic characteristics of families or species of fishes and what they eat, a handy glossary appears at the back of the book before the Index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a general introduction to the ethnobotany of the Hawaiians and as such it presumes, on the part of the reader, little background in either botany or Hawaiian ethnology. It describes the plants themselves, whether cultivated or brought from the forests, streams, or ocean, as well as the modes of cultivation and collection. It discusses the preparation and uses of the plant materials, and the methods employed in building houses and making canoes, wearing apparel, and the many other artifacts that were part of the material culture associated with this farming and fishing people.
