Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Amphibia and Reptiles The account of the Amphibia is more complete than that of the Reptilia. It was possible to diagnose practically all the recent genera; and this has been especially done in the Anura, in order to show how in an otherwise very homogeneous group almost any part of the body, internal or external, can be modified in kaleidoscopic variety. The same could not be done with the Reptilia. Their principal groups, - called sub-classes in the present work, in order to emphasise their taxonomic importance in comparison with the main groups of Birds and Mammals.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Amphibians and the Reptiles Looking more carefully at the difference between the two directions of the new education we can see what each accomplishes. There is first an effort to train the original powers of the individual and make him self-active, quick at observation, and free in his thinking. Next, the new education endeavors, by the reading of books and the study of the wisdom of the race, to make the child or youth a participator in the results of experience of all mankind. These two movements may be made antagonistic by poor teaching. The book knowledge, containing as it does the precious lesson of human experience, may be so taught as to bring with it only dead rules of conduct, only dead scraps of information, and no stimulant to original thinking. Its contents may be memorized without being understood. On the other hand, the self-activity of the child may be stimulated at the expense of his social well-being - his originality may be cultivated at the expense of his rationality. If he is taught persistently to have his own way, to trust only his own senses. To cling to his own Opinions heedless of the experience of his fellows, he is pre paring for an unsuccessful, misanthropic career, and is likely enough to end his life in a madhouse. It is admitted that a too exclusive study of the knowledge found in books, the knowledge which is aggregated from the experience and thought of other people, may result in loading the mind of the pupil with material which he can not use to advantage.

It would be well to go farther and read the accounts of the development of the organs in question in some of the text-books of vertebrate embryology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biology of the Frog The present book is the outgrowth of a course of lectures delivered during the past six years at the Uni versity of Michigan. This course with the accompanying laboratory work was based on the frog, which was chosen as a convenient form with which to introduce students to a knowledge of the morphology, physiology, and life his tory of vertebrate animals. In writing this book I have had in mind the needs of students, such as most of those taking this course, who have had some preliminary work in general biology, but who have forgotten most of what little of the elements of physiology they may have learned in the schools. A certain amount of physiology of a more or less general nature has accordingly been introduced in addition to the descriptions of the special functions of the various organs of the body. The book is more suitable for use as a text in college or university classes than in high schools, although it is hoped that it will prove of service to teachers in high schools where the frog is studied in the course in zoology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Reptiles and Amphibians of Ohio The tadpoles or young of frogs, and probably also of salamanders live almost, or entirely, upon vegetable matter. However, in some cases they are said to have eaten decomposing animal matter, and even other tad poles. Prof. Baird states that this may be taken advantage of to clean skeletons by placing the two together in water. The larval Rana sylvatica he found to be the most effective, as these devoured the macerated flesh, leaving a ligamentous skeleton. Their food primarily is vegetable, and it is probable that they never attack their own Species unless driven by hunger or after they have attained a good degree of development.

Download or read book The Amphibia and Reptilia of Colorado (Classic Reprint) written by Max Mapes Ellis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Amphibia and Reptilia of Colorado Comparatively little has been published concerning the reptiles and amphibians of Colorado. The limited literature consists of records of species scattered through a number of publications, some of which are inaccessible to the general public. Considerable unre corded material having accumulated, it seems opportune to publish this present report in order to place in the hands of naturalists and the general public such information as we have, bringing together into compact form the records heretofore published, and adding to them the unpublished material, so far as the same has come to our attention. Environmental Conditions. - Colorado has an area of about square miles, a latitudinal extent of about 276 miles and a longitudinal extent of about 375 miles. It is traversed from north to south, irregularly, by the continental divide - the backbone of the conti nent - its waters draining into two oceans. Its rock formations represent all the geological systems except possibly the Silurian. Though its average altitude is only approximately feet, it varies in altitude from less than feet to over feet above sea level, with consequent differences in climatic and other environmental conditions. The mean annual rainfall varies in a general way with altitude and topography, from less than 10 inches to 30 inches or more. Data as to temperatures in the larger and higher masses of mountains are as yet very meager, but it may be said that the temperature at elevations of from to feet drops to a point below freezing nightly even in summer time, while the mean temperature for the warmest months in some of the lower portions of the state is nearly eighty degrees. On the whole, the state is a cool one. The diurnal range of temperature is great over the entire state. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Reptiles and Amphibians This little volume, dealing with the British Reptiles and Amphibians, may well find a place in the Peeps at Nature Series. Britain has few representatives of these two classes of animals, but their fewness in number has enabled the author to deal with each species at some length; and, besides, we have the additional advantage of being able to illustrate all but two of the British species in colour. We are indebted to Miss Scrivener for the capabie way in which she has prepared the drawings from which the coloured plates have been prepared. The reader's attention is par ticularly directed to the series of photographic repro ductions on Plates III., VI., VII., X., and XL, which illustrate admirably the story of the development of the frog.

Kurata and Mr. C. M. Mottley. The party was engaged in a studyof the trout of that region under the Biological Board of Canada, and in collecting natural history material for the Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology. Such time as was available to the writer from other duties was devoted to the search for amphibians and reptiles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australian Amphibia in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, Massachusetts The necessity of identifying the Harvard Expedition material involved a thorough reexamination of all earlier Australian accessions to the Museum collection, and an intensive study of the status of many recently described species. It revealed that the Museum now possesses all of the 20 genera inhabiting Australia, and 78 of the 88 species or races. In view of the relative comprehensiveness of this material the present paper has been written witha view to placing at the disposal of our Australian colleagues, who rendered such generous assistance to the Harvard party during the expedition, the wealth of locality data which would otherwise remain inaccessible to them among the records of our card-index cabinets. Moreover, the study of this material has resulted in a clearer conception of the status of many species and involves numerous changes in taxonomy which are re ferred to below.
