Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study of indigenous oral narratives, Julie Cruikshank moves beyond the text to explore the social significance of storytelling. Circumpolar Native peoples today experience strikingly different and often competing systems of narrative and knowledge. These systems include traditional oral stories; the authoritative, literate voice of the modern state; and the narrative forms used by academic disciplines to represent them to outsiders. Pressured by other systems of narrative and truth, how do Native peoples use their stories and find them still meaningful in the late 20th century? Why does storytelling continue to thrive? What can anthropologists learn from the structure and performance of indigenous narratives to become better academic storytellers themselves?

Book excerpt: "Snails and slugs have a reputation as slimy, repulsive creatures that are nothing more than garden pests, but they are important components of the ecosystems they live in. In fact, most of the pest slugs and snails are introduced species that have come here with the plants we import for our gardens. Worldwide there are more species of snails and slugs than all the mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians combined, yet they are often overlooked because of their relatively small size. Land snails and slugs are well adapted to live in almost any kind of environment, from high arctic tundra to tropical forests. In British Columbia, they can be found just about everywhere. Land Snails of British Columbia describes all 92 species of terrestrial molluscs in our province. It includes photographs and detailed drawings of each, diagnostic keys and a selection of colour photographs to aid in identification. With each species description, the author discusses its natural history and distribution in the province. He also talks about reproduction, life history, diet, locomotion and shell structure (even slugs have shells). Nature buffs and anyone interested in looking past the bad reputation of these much-maligned creatures will find this handbook an enlightening guide. For gardeners, this book will tell you which snails to cast out of your garden and which ones to keep, because some snails and slugs are beneficial to gardens and some even prey on their pestilent relatives."--

Book excerpt: Mollusks have been important to humans since our earliest days. Initially, when humans were primarily interested in what they could eat or use, mollusks were important as food, ornaments, and materials for tools. Over the centuries, as human knowledge branched out and individuals started to study the world around them, mollusks were important subjects for learning how things worked. In this volume, the editors and contributors have brought together a broad range of topics within the field of malacology. It is our expectation that these topics will be of interest and use to amateur and professional malacologists.

Download or read book Land Snails of West Virginia written by Daniel C Dourson and published by . This book was released on 2022-11-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land Snails of West Virginia combines historical research and a statewide land snail survey from 2006-2015 funded and facilitated by West Virginia Division of Natural Resources (WVDNR). The land snail inventory represented perhaps the most comprehensive statewide land snail survey in North America. Biologists, Master Naturalists, and volunteers across West Virginia collected thousands of specimens, resulting in 459 new county records, 5 new state records and 7 species previously unknown to science. Over 17,000 specimens have been examined by the author alone as a result of this statewide endeavor. There are currently 168 native land snail species confirmed from West Virginia, 11 of which are endemic (more than any neighboring state). Eighteen species are restricted to the borders of West Virginia and Virginia along the Ridge and Valley region. While the land snails in West Virginia are fairly well documented, there remains a dearth of basic biological and life history information for nearly all 168 species. One of the few snails that has received more than casual observation is the federally threatened Cheat three-tooth, Triodopsis platysayoides (Hotopp 2003; Dourson 2008). The book contains general information on the importance of land snails in ecosystems, snail anatomy and biology, how to collect land snails, detailed species accounts for all native land snail species found in the state including slugs, exotic species, and a section on species occurring in border states but not yet documented in West Virgina.
