Abstract

Johann Friedrich Eschscholtz published two herpetological titles, the first in a journal named Quatember. Until now, this paper, which contains descriptions of three sea turtle taxa, including Chelonia olivacea, has been overlooked, and the nomenclatural implications have been ignored. The Quatember paper preceded, and has precedence over, Eschscholtz's better known Zoologischer Atlas, and therefore is the earliest description of C. olivacea. However, Plate III of the Atlas remains the earliest illustration for what is today called Lepidochelys olivacea.

Abstract

The Journal of Herpetology (JH), which reached its 50th volume in 2016, had an unusual start. Its predecessor publication was founded in 1958 by high school students as the Journal of The Ohio Herpetological Society (JOHS), which was sponsored by an amateur organization. The scope of the journal as well as that of the society soon became broader than Ohio or even North America. In 1967 OHS transformed into the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles (SSAR), which today is the largest professional herpetological society in the world. The journal was re-named Journal of Herpetology in 1968 and the volumes numbered again from 1. The journal, like SSAR, grew rapidly in size and professionalism. In 2009, JH was selected as one of the “100 most influential journals in biology and medicine worldwide over the last 100 years.” Originally, taxonomy–systematics (37%), ecology (20%), behavior (16%), physiology (8%), and genetics (4%) predominated as topics in JH; today, ecology (28%), conservation (...

Abstract

Arend Friedrich August Wiegmann (1802–1841), who was based at Zoologisches Museum in Berlin, is most closely associated with Mexican herpetology through his publication of Herpetologia Mexicana (1834). However, he also made substantial contributions to the study of reptiles and amphibians of other regions, particularly South America and Asia. These were based on collections made by Franz Julius Ferdinand Meyen (1804–1840) on a journey around the world during 1830–1832 and were published as the “Amphibien” section of Meyen's Reise um die Erde. The dating of this work has been especially problematic and several versions of the paper exist. A combination of sources of evidence, both intrinsic and extrinsic to Wiegmann's own publications, strongly suggests that the date of publication of this work is late 1834, that a book version of the paper predated the more widely cited paper in Nova acta, and that all versions of Reise um die Erde postdate Herpetologia Mexicana. An annotated bibliography of Wiegmann's 29 herpetological publications is presented.

Abstract

Ingestion of fireflies of the genus Photinus (Lampyridae) can be lethal to Australian lizards of the genus Pogona (Agamidae), probably because of the poisonous steroidal pyrones (lucibufagins) that these fireflies contain. One Photinus may suffice to kill a Pogona. Captive Pogona kept as pets need to be shielded from firefly ingestion. African chameleons (Chamaeleo; Chamaeleonidae) appear also to be vulnerable to Photinus toxicosis.

Abstract

True navigation, also referred to as map-based homing, is the ability of an organism to return to the origin of a displacement (‘home’) without access to familiar landmarks or goal-emanating cues, and without knowledge of the displacement route. True navigation requires both a ‘map’ or geographical position sense and a compass, and has been demonstrated only in vertebrates (e.g. Walcott & Schmidt-Koenig 1973; Rodda 1984a, b, 1985). In the present study, eastern red-spotted newts, Notophthalmus viridescens, deprived of directional information during long distance displacement from their home pond were able to orient in the homeward direction, indicating that they are capable of true navigation. Homing ability appears to be well developed in the family Salamandridae. Western newts, Taricha rivularis, return to breeding sites along relatively straight paths after displacements of up to 12 km (Twitty et al. 1966). Eastern red-spotted newts exhibit homeward-directed orientation in an enclosed indoor arena after displacements of lo-50 km (Phillips 1986a, 1987; Phillips & Borland 1994). In our earlier homing studies (Phillips 1986a, 1987; Phillips & Borland 1994), male eastern newts were displaced from their home ponds to the testing facility in partially covered plastic buckets which provided access to directional cues en route that could potentially have been used to determine the direction of displacement (Phillips 1987). In the experiments reported here, male newts were deprived of visual, magnetic, olfactory and inertial directional cues during displacement from their

10. The Development of Systematic Reviews of the Turtles of the World

Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics
Abstract

Turtles are one of nature’s most immediately recognizable life forms. They are an ancient group of vertebrateswith a rich fossil history whose natural limits have long been recognized by naturalists. Indeed, the monophylyof this order has never been seriously questioned. The use of turtles and their eggs as food and for medicinaland ceremonial purposes has made them of importance to mankind since prehistoric times. As such, cheloniansfigured prominently in the earliest museum collections, all of them privately owned, including that of the Ital-ian physician and encyclopedist of nature, Ulisse Aldrovandi of Bologna, in the late 16th century and the collec-tions amassed in Amsterdam by the wealthy pharmacist and amateur naturalist, Albertus Seba, early in the 18thcentury. The first books devoted exclusively to turtles were on their anatomy. Giovanni Caldesi, physician tothe last grand duke of Tuscany, and Christoph Gottwald, a physician and collector of natural history curiositiesin Danzig, published their treatises on chelonian morphology in 1687 and 1781, respectively, the latter beingissued eight decades after Gottwald’s death. Neither author, however, provided a comprehensive review of theworld’s turtles.

Abstract

The use of scientific names or nomina (Dubois 2000) in the scientific literature requires attention to the international nomenclatural rules of the Code (Anonymous 1999). Articles 7 to 20 of this Code put precise conditions for the availability of nomina, which must be respected if these are to be used as valid in taxonomy. Similarly, Articles 52 to 60 concern the situation of homonynous nomina. Lack of attention to these rules may create nomenclatural instability and confusion and should be avoided, or corrected when discovered.

Abstract

Tiger salamanders (Ambystoma tigrinum) trained as larvae to orient in a particular compass direction reverse their direction of movement approximately at metamorphosis, but the timing of reversal is not closely related to developmental stage. Although exogenous thyroxine facilitates metamorphosis, it does not simultaneously trigger reversal of movement (Fig. 1). The reversal occurs even if the animals are deprived of a continuous view of the sky. Administration of pulses of exogenous melatonin at noon, but not serotonin or thyroxine, caused the larvae to shift their directional response about 90° clockwise (Figs. 2, 3). This result is consistent with the view that melatonin pulses mimic “lights-on” and act to phase-delay the animal's endogenous timekeeping mechanism.

Abstract

The common assumption that test groups are motivationally homogeneous and utilize the same orientation reference cues may not be correct. Green frogs ( Rana clamitans ) were trained in a circular arena to seek a goalbox located 90° counterclockwise from a lamp. Most frogs learned the task, but an analysis of the training and testing records showed marked individuality in task learning. Some frogs found the goalbox only with the lamp as a cue; others used the goalbox, the goalbox and lamp, or the goalbox and the lamp separately as cues. One individual learned to orient non-randomly to some still-unknown but geographically fixed cue. These observations show that even though frogs can learn a common task, under supposedly identical training conditions they may utilize a diversity of cues. Larger (thus, older) frogs were significantly more consistent in their patterns of movement. Paths of movement that succeeded in reaching the goal tended to be repeated in later tests. Frogs trained to move around a partition to a goal continued that path even when the obstruction was later removed, suggesting the use of a motor memory or kinaesthesia. Standard orientation tests, in which the group was significantly oriented in the expected direction, were shown on closer inspection to consist of frogs moving according to several individually stereotyped factors. Thus, the heterogeneity of individual experimental animals should be more fully taken into consideration in orientation research.

Tiger salamanders (Ambystoma tigrinum) trained to orient in a particular compass direction under the sun fail to orient in the trained direction if they are (i) eyeless and simultaneously have the brain covered with opaque plastic or are (ii) eyeless and pinealectomized (Fig. 1–2, Table 1). Salamanders with either the eyes or the pineal intact and unobstructed continue to orient in the trained direction. These data strongly support the hypothesis that the pineal body is an effective extraocular photoreceptor (EOP) for compass orientation in tiger salamanders.

Abstract

The diurnal escape response of fringetoed lizards (Uma notata) startled by predators demonstrates clear directional orientation not likely to depend on local landmarks in the shifting sands of their desert environment. Evidence that celestial orientation is involved in this behavior has been sought in the present experiments by testing the effects of (1) phase shifting the animal's internal clock by 6 h and (2) by training the lizards to seek shelter while exposed to natural polarization patterns. In the first case, 90° shifts in escape direction were demonstrated in outdoor tests, as expected if a time-compensated sun or sky polarized light compass is involved. In the second instance, significant bimodale-vector dependent orientation was found under an overhead polarizing light filter but this was only evident when the response data were transposed to match the zenithe-vector rotation dependent on the sun's apparent movement through the sky. This extends to reptiles the capacity to utilize overheade-vector directions as a time-compensated sky compass. The sensory site of this discrimination and the relative roles of sun and sky polarization in nature remain to be discovered.

Abstract

Results of compass orientation studies with amphibians and other organisms typically are characterized by large variability. This study considered the extent to which variability in individual responses may account for group variance and also assessed the role of environmental factors in influencing orientation. Statistical tests showed that even though all animals were trained similarly, the orientation of some individuals reversed (10% of our test sample). A physiological basis for this directional reversal is suggested, dependent upon stress-induced corticosterone levels.

Abstract

Spatial orientation corresponding to the bearing of thee-vector of linearly polarized light can be demonstrated in sighted and eyeless salamanders (Ambystoma tigrinum) trained under linearly polarized light. However, if opaque polyethylene plastic is inserted over the skull of these animals, whether they are sighted or eyeless, orientation is uniform within the test arena. Bidirectional oriented movement is restored in both groups, however, when transparent plastic is substituted in the same animals. A discussion of the possible mechanism for perception of polarized light by extraocular photoreceptors (EOPs) is given.

Abstract

We have developed two distinct methods of biological rhythm analysis. The procedures are based on existing techniques for analysis of time series, Enright's periodogram and autocorrelation, and both of the new methods use the parameter, period length (τ), for defining oscillatory phenomena. We empirically evaluated the two types of analyses using real biological data from circadian rhythm studies in salamanders and sparrows.

Abstract

Highly structured social systems can involve close kinship groups (eusocial insects1, lion prides2, helpers-at-the-nest in birds3). However, kinship generally has not been considered to be important or necessary for what seem to be merely gregarious phenomena, such as schooling behaviour4. In fact, Fisher first proposed kinship theory to explain the evolution of noxious taste in certain gregarious insect larvae. He reasoned that traits which at first may not be directly beneficial to the individual, such as distastefulness or warning coloration, might be selected for if they conferred advantage to siblings in the swarm5. Like some insect larvae, the tadpoles of many toads (genus Bufo) are conspicuously coloured, distasteful to predators and highly gregarious, forming densely packed schools in open areas along pond shores6. The tadpoles' aggregative behaviour may be important for feeding efficiency7,8, thermoregulation9 or predator deterrence8, but their conspicuousness coupled with their distastefulness suggest that schooling may also serve an apose-matic function. Consistent with the predictions of a kin selection model, we report here that tadpoles of the American toad (Bufo americanus) preferentially associate with siblings in laboratory conditions.

Abstract

Baker (this volume) has provided a comprehensive review of tests on human orientation which permits a detailed evaluation of this potentially interesting and highly controversial phenomenon. The idea that humans, when blindfolded and displaced, exhibit an unconscious compass sense based on detection of the earth’s magnetic field was first proposed by Baker (1980) and followed up by him with a series of additional experiments (references in Baker’s chapter, this volume). However, the only attempts at replication that have been published (Gould and Able, 1981) failed to support Baker’s hypothesis and there has been, to date, no satisfactory resolution to the controversy.

31. Directional and Discriminatory Responses of Salamanders to Weak Magnetic Fields

Abstract

A number of studies now exist pointing to the use of magnetic information in vertebrate orientation especially for birds, but the evidence among lower vertebrates is difficult to interpret. Several studies with fish have demonstrated a response to magnetic fields (e.g., Branover et al., 1971; Ovchinnikov et al., 1973; Andrianov et al., 1974; Tesch, 1974). However, in an aquatic environment electrical events can be induced by a body moving through a magnetic field and, therefore, it is not clear whether magnetic perception is accomplished directly or indirectly through induction. Several fish have been shown to be sensitive enough to electrical stimuli to be able to perceive such induced fields (reviewed in Fessard, 1974) even in some species which lack specialized electroreceptive organs (Rommel and McCleave, 1972, 1973). In studies with the cave salamander Phillips (1977) provided evidence for a learned directional response to the earth’s magnetic field. Since this species is terrestrial, it seems more likely that the magnetic field is perceived directly. The present paper considers an additional source of variation observed in the original data from cave salamanders and also provides supporting evidence for discriminatory responses to weak magnetic fields in a second species of salamander.

Abstract

Timing of locomotor rhythm in the slimy ralamander, Plethodon glutinosus, can be shifted in phase by the environmental light cycle, whether the animals have eyes or not. Rhythmicity persists at least for the first day when animals are transferred to constant conditions, with a period of about 24 hours, and is therefore circadian in nature. An extraoptic photoreceptor site in the brain is suggested.

Abstract

The Sierra Madre del Sur of Oaxaca and Guerrero, along the west coast of Mexico, marks the northwestern limits of the genus Bolitoglossa. The three species known from these mountains comprise the macrinii group, which differs from all other Bolitoglossa beta by lacking mental gland clusters in adult males, and in having extremely weak premaxillary bones that fre- quently have incomplete frontal processes. Bolitoglossa macrinii and B. riletti occur in Oaxaca, and B. hermosa, here described, has recently been found in Guerrero. These species can be distinguished by differences in color pattern and amount of foot webbing. The three species are also well differ- entiated on the basis of morphometric and electrophoretic differences. Over half of the world's known species of salamanders are tropical plethodontids in the tribe Bolitoglossi- ni. As recently as fifty years ago, only 30 tropical species were recognized. To- day over 160 have been described. The largest genus in the Bolitoglossini is Bolitoglossa with about 75 species. Its members span the New World tropics from near the Tropic of Cancer in the north to the Tropic of Capricorn in the south. The Sierra Madre del Sur, locat- ed in the states of Oaxaca and Guerrero, Mexico, apparently represent the northwestern limits of the genus along the west coast of Mexico. The drainage of this mountain range is west of the Continental Divide and the range ex- tends from the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in the east-southeast to the mouth of the Rio Balsas in the west-northwest.

Abstract

Amphibians possess extraoptic photoreceptors (EOPs) which can be used to perceive light for certain physiological and behavioral activities including pigmentary adaptation, entrainment and phase-shifting of circadian locomotor rhythms, and compass orientation. Several parts of the pineal system seem to be involved in perceiving light: the extracranial pineal end organ (also called frontal organ or stirnorgan) found only in frogs and toads, and the intracranial pineal body (or epiphysis cerebri) found in all Amphibia; both structures possess a retina-like fine structure and have been demonstrated to be functional photoreceptors from neurophysiological studies. Evidence for the use of EOPs and location of specific sites is reviewed drawing upon behavioral, ultrastructural and neurophysiological sources. The existence of non-pineal EOPs in Amphibia and the role of EOPs in other vertebrates are briefly discussed.

Abstract

Comparison of the holotypes of Pseudemys hilli (Cope, 1878) of the Kansas Lower Pliocene and Chrysemys limnodytes (Galbreath, 1948) of the Oklahoma Lower Pliocene indicates the they are synonymous. The holotype of C. limnodytes possesses only one character (the shape of the haemal spine of the last cervical vertebra) in nine studied that indicates a closer affinity to Chrysemys than to Pseudemys. A difference in the rela- tive lengths of the second, third, and fourth ribs of Chrysemys and Pseudemys is noted and recommends c o m p a r a t i v e study of the muscles which these bones encase. As a consequence of studies on some fossil emydines, it has been necessary for me to identify some of the numerous names that have been applied to these

Abstract

A population of Pseudemys scripta is reported in west- central West Virginia and materialfrom an archeological site at Mount Carbon (dating about 820-1070 AD) corroborates this first record for the state; all of these localities are in the Kanawha River Valley. Aqua- tic prehistoric dispersal routes in the Midwest are discussed and it is suggested that this species used the Mahomet-Teays River, formed dur- ing the Nebraskan glacial advance, to reach southern Ohio and West Virginia from the Mississippi Valley. Other animals having similar distributional patterns are mentioned. The pond slider, Pseudemys scripta, has a wide distribution, from eastern Virginia to northwestern South America. In the Midwest this turtle ranges up the Mississippi River, throughout Illinois and much of Indiana. There are several disjunct colonies in Ohio and Michigan (Conant, 1958), and archeological records from well beyond the present range of the species have recently been reported from Wisconsin and Michigan (Adler, 1968). Like certain other aquatic species of rep- tiles and amphibians to be mentioned below, isolated populations of the pond slider may yet be found in other places in the Midwest.
