McArthur" Subject: Seeking Postdoc: Invertebrate Molecular Systematics Colleagues, I am nearing completion of my post-doc at the National Museum of Natural History's Laboratory of Molecular Systematics where I have been working on the molecular phylogenetics of various deep-sea gastropod lineages, with emphasis upon possible sulphide-associated refugial relics. I am seeking postdoctoral opportunities in marine invertebrate molecular systematics to begin in January-February 1998, with preference for a position in the New England region (Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, etc.). I am interested in working on phylogenetic or biogeographic issues in any marine invertebrate taxon, but would especially be interested in working with endemic deep-sea groups, particularly among the polychaetes, copepods, barnacles, or gastropods. I have several possible research projects for these groups I would be willing to discuss. Full details of my research interests, my Curriculum Vitae, and supplemental information can be found on my web site: http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/8431/ Please forward this message to anyone who may be interested, with my thanks.

The main BIOSCI FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) is accessible on the World Wide Web at URL http://www.bio.net/. If you can not find an answer to your question in this or other documentation, the BIOSCI technical support staff answers e-mail queries sent to biosci-help@net.bio.net We can only answer questions about the use of the newsgroups and mailing lists. We unfortunately do not have the staff to do Internet information searches or answer scientific questions. Please post those to the appropriate BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. Contents: -------- 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. 4) The BIOSCI user address and research interest directory. 0) BIOSCI NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!! ------------------------------ BIOSCI's government funding has been expended, and we are now operating solely from advertising revenue that we have raised from our Web site at http://www.bio.net/. We need just a few minutes of your time to help us serve you. You can do two important things which will take very little time for you individually and will immensely help us continue to help you. First, please use our WWW system at http://www.bio.net/ to access the archives. You can post or reply to messages via your Web browser as described in item #1 below. Your usage helps attract sponsors. If you contact any of our sponsors, please be sure to thank them for supporting BIOSCI. It is critical for them to get this feedback if they are to continue their sponsorship for the long term. Second, if you work for a company or organization that provides products or services of interest to the biology community, please pass this message on to your marketing or marketing communications department or other appropriate group. Please ask them to help support BIOSCI by sponsoring our Web site and explain the uses and benefits of the system to the biology community. If they are interested, they can then contact us for further information at our tech support address, biosci-help@net.bio.net. 1) Using the WWW to access the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups. -------------------------------------------------------- As of 10 December 1995, all BIOSCI/bionet full newsgroups are accessible through the World Wide Web (WWW) at URL http://www.bio.net. One can read and reply publicly or privately to both recent postings and archived messages through one's Web browser if it is configured properly to send e-mail. Each newsgroup is equipped with its own WAIS index. The main BIOSCI home page also has access to the BIO-JOURNALS Table of Contents database WAIS index and the BIOSCI user address database described in another item further below. 2) What to do about "spams," i.e., junk mail, ads, etc. ------------------------------------------------------- BIOSCI is a set of parallel USENET newsgroups (the "bionet" groups), mailing lists, and a hypermail archive at URL http://www.bio.net/. The same postings are distributed on all media (except for a small number of mailing-list-only groups at net.bio.net). Unfortunately it is becoming a despicable practice on the Internet (by a few people out to make a fast buck) to do automated mass postings to thousands of newsgroups and mailing lists. These attempts to grab free advertising are refered to as "spams" in the usual, somewhat boneheaded, net terminology. USENET is more susceptible to this practice, and many spams originate on the USENET groups and then are passed on to the mailing lists. However, spammers also get lists of mailing addresses and hit these too, so neither medium is immune. What should you do personally if you get junk mail? --------------------------------------------------- Just delete it and move on without reading it further. Filing a protest is becoming increasingly useless because spammers are often disguising the addresses where the messages are sent from. Unless you really understand Internet mail systems, your attempt at protest by sending replies to the message will often end up being sent to the address of an innocent person that the spammer is victimizing. What can BIOSCI/bionet do to protect its newsgroups? ---------------------------------------------------- The only solution currently available is to moderate the newsgroup. If this newsgroup is already moderated, then you are in good shape. Moderation protects the USENET distribution from about 95% of the spams that are being sent to date and protects the mailing lists completely. Moderation means, however, that someone has to take the time to review each message before it goes out. We have set up software here that simply allows the moderator to forward to an address at net.bio.net messages that (s)he wishes to have distributed. This takes no more time than that needed to read the message and pass it on, say about 1 min. per message. Most newsgroups currently have a discussion leader who is responsible for their newsgroup. The discussions leaders and their e-mail addresses are listed in the BIOSCI Information Sheet which is available on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. If a newsgroup is being hit with too many junk postings, please contact the discussion leader for that group and see if there is interest in moderating the group. Please do not assume that by simply posting a complaint to the newsgroup itself, anyone on the BIOSCI staff will act on your complaint. With close to 100 newsgroups to run, the BIOSCI staff has to rely on the discussion leaders of each newsgroup to report problems directly to us at biosci-help@net.bio.net. We will moderate any of our newsgroups if the discussion leader tells us that the readership of the group wishes to do so and if a moderator is willing to do the work. For most BIOSCI/bionet groups, this entails only a few minutes of work each day. Moderating a newsgroup will resolve probably 95% of the junk postings on the USENET distribution. Unfortunately there are easy ways for determined spammers to override the moderation mechanism on USENET, but we can protect our e-mail subscribers from unwanted postings if the newsgroup is moderated. You can also access our newsgroups over the WWW at URL http://www.bio.net. While this Web interface will not stop spammers from trying to post to the groups, this will give you yet another way, besides using USENET news, to keep the junk out of your personal mail files. For those of you with local USENET news systems, the Web interface will also give you faster access to new newsgroups and recent postings. 3) Examples of subscribing and unsubscribing to the mailing lists. ------------------------------------------------------------------ PLEASE NOTE: The BIOSCI management does NOT act on subscription/unsubscription requests that are posted improperly to the newsgroups and mailing lists. People who do this only bother everyone on the lists to no avail. Please be sure to follow the proper procedures below. Gory details are in the BIOSCI Information sheets on the Web at http://www.bio.net. Below we give an example utilizing the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list at both of our two BIOSCI sites: Users in the Americas and Pacific Rim countries who use the BIOSCI ------------------------------------------------------------------ node at computer net.bio.net: ---------------------------- A) Determine the "listname" which is the <=8 character mail address ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ for the group. These can be found in the BIOSCI Info. Sheet. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS group the mailing address is methods@net.bio.net. The listname is the portion of the address to the left of the @ sign, i.e., "methods". The listname is used with the "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" commands illustrated below. B) Mail all commands in the body of a mail message addressed to biosci-server@net.bio.net. Do NOT send commands to the newsgroup posting addresses! Leave the Subject: line blank, any text on it will be ignored. C) In the body of your message put one or more of the following commands with an "end" command on the last line, e.g., subscribe methods unsubscribe methods end Do NOT put your e-mail address or other text on these lines. The server only allows you to cancel your subscription if the address on your mail header matches the address on our mailing list. Please ask for help at biosci-help@net.bio.net if your address has changed, e.g., if you know you are on the list but the server tells you that you are not a member. Users in Europe, Africa, and Central Asia who use the BIOSCI node at -------------------------------------------------------------------- computer daresbury.ac.uk (also known as dl.ac.uk): ------------------------------------------------- To subscribe and unsubscribe to/from the BIOSCI lists, you need to specify the full USENET newsgroup name with "bionet-news." prepended. The USENET newsgroup names are listed in the BIOSCI Information sheet on the Web at http://www.bio.net/. For the METHODS-AND-REAGENTS list the USENET newsgroup name is bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts, thus the appropriate commands are sub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts unsub bionet-news.bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts These commands are included in a message addressed to mxt@dl.ac.uk, NOT to the newsgroup mailing addresses. As usual, include the text in the body of the message as text on the Subject: line is ignored. To unsubscribe from all the lists at the UK node, use unsub bionet-news Please note that if the address in the list is different than the one in your mail message header, you will not be able to unsubscribe by this method. If you have problems, please mail biosci@daresbury.ac.uk. 4) The BIOSCI user address and research interest directory. ----------------------------------------------------------- Please take this opportunity to add your name, address, and research interest information to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so. You can fill out the address form directly through our Web page at URL http://www.bio.net/adrform.html. The address database is reindexed nightly for WWW access (the URL is http://www.bio.net/). If you are not directly on the Internet but can reach it by e-mail, please use our waismail server to access the user directory. waismail use is described above. You can also request a user address form by e-mail from biosci-help@net.bio.net. Please check your database entry from time-to-time to see if your address information is still up-to-date. Because of our limited personnel resources, we ask that you resubmit a *complete* form to revise your entry; we only replace complete entries and do not have resources to edit old forms. -- ANNELIDA LIST Server address = biosci-server@net.bio.net (un/subscribes) Discussion address = annelida@net.bio.net (talk to all members) List archives = URL:http://www.bio.net:80/hypermail/ANNELIDA/ Research resource = URL:http://www.keil.ukans.edu/~worms/annelid.html From daemon Mon Oct 20 15:30:55 1997 Received: (from daemon@localhost) by net.bio.net (8.6.12/8.6.6) id PAA09193 Message-Id: <199710202230.PAA09193@net.bio.net> To: annelida@net.bio.net From: "Frank Licher" Reply-To: annelida@net.bio.net Organization: Biologie Uni Osnabrueck Date: Tue, 14 Oct 1997 13:48:29 GMT Subject: authors with aristocracic title Dear collegues, I am finishing a revision of the genus Typosyllis Langerhans (Syllidae) for Ph.D. thesis at the University of Osnabrueck.

Later in life, when he was recognized as part of nobility, his name was changed to "Carl von Linne." I've seen one portrait, which appears to be a copy from another, where he has the name "Charles Linne." I don't think Linnaeus ever referred to himself as "Charles".

As >there seems to be no guideline .... The current use varies with the languages, as far as alphabetical lists of authors for bibliography are concerned. At least in German (von) and French (de) the most common particles are arranged after the family name (Marenzeller, von; Blainville, de). Current use in Italian appears to be different: Delle Chiaje, Della Croce, Di Geronimo, etc. As for the Dutch, fellow polychaete worker Harry ten Hove told me that in bibliographies he prefers to figure as Hove, ten (with his geographic? not aristocratic? particle) behind. I remember a South African author with a somewhat "complexe" (for outsiders) name of Dutch origin (now to be considered as Afrikaans) "alphabetically" listed in three different ways, including in his own publications - either he had not decided a standard way to handle his own name, or he was imposed the three different versions by different editors of journals. As for the version to be used as the author's name following a species name, it surely would be convenient to always use the name without whatever particle (parcimony), but this would be occasionally in contradiction with with above. ----------------------------------- Helmut ZIBROWIUS (Centre d'Oceanologie de Marseille) Station Marine d'Endoume Rue Batterie des Lions 13007 Marseille / France E-MAIL: hzibrowi@com.univ-mrs.fr TEL: within France 0491041624 from abroad +33 491041624 FAX: within France 0491041635 from abroad +33 491041635 --------------------------------------------------------- -- ANNELIDA Discuss = annelida@net.bio.net = talk to all members Server = biosci-server@net.bio.net = un/subscribes Archives = http://www.bio.net:80/hypermail/ANNELIDA/ Resources = http://www.keil.ukans.edu/~worms/annelid.html -- From daemon Tue Oct 21 02:22:18 1997 Received: (from daemon@localhost) by net.bio.net (8.6.12/8.6.6) id CAA18277 Message-Id: <199710210922.CAA18277@net.bio.net> To: annelida@net.bio.net Date: Tue, 21 Oct 1997 10:58:36 +0200 Reply-To: annelida@net.bio.net From: "Harry A. ten Hove" Subject: Re: authors with aristocracic title In partial reply to Frank Lichers question, I paste below a discussion on a similar subject I had some time ago with Gary Gaston.

Thank you. 011096 Dear Gary, You touch a raw nerve here, an everlasting problem. Recently I discussed this with at least 3 persons, but unfortunately cannot refind the discussion notwithstanding the fact that electronic searches are faster than manual ones. I probably will have stored the discussion that much logical, that I will refind it immediately after I finish this explanation. My family name is ten Hove. In the European fashion, however, Harry ten Hove is catalogued as: Hove, Harry ten. American fashion is: Ten Hove, Harry. Note the difference between the correct ten, and uncorrect Ten. Thus citing myself in the text my personal preference is (ten Hove, 1996), but in the References you will have to look under Hove, and depending the wishes of the editing house the ten may be European style, or American Ten. I try to be consistent in this, but as indicated the larger publishing houses sometimes tend to do it the American way, and the entire series will become (Ten Hove, 1996) and in the References Ten Hove. (you can imagine the negative impact on publication lists compiled from the Science Citation Index). Mutatis mutandis the same holds for "de Jonge" and "van Beusekom", but also for "de Quatrefages", which I never have found in a References under De, always under Quatrefages. European fashion the family name is "de Jonge", to be catalogued under Jonge, V.N. de; American fashion "De Jonge", V.N. I presume that "De Jonge, 1992" already is a concession to the journal's style. It gets even more complicated with real double names as for instance my former boss P. Wagenaar Hummelinck. His full family name is Wagenaar Hummelinck, but in the social intercourse he usually introduced himself for shortness sake as "Hummelinck". Nevertheless, in a References you will find him under Wagenaar Hummelinck, P. and not as I have seen erroneously as Hummelinck, P. Wagenaar, implicating that his preferred Christian name is Wagenaar instead of the real one Pieter. In conclusion, when you want to make certain that the references can be found, you might make a double entry in the References: Hove, H.A. ten, 1994.- Serpulidae ( Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Seychelles and Amirante Islands.

[Note some lines above: J. van der Land, to be cited correctly in the European fashion under L] The American way may be more consistent and easy for the general public. However, trying to find papers in (older) European data banks you won't be able to locate the stuff, unless you are aware of the problem and do a double (even treble) search.

When he died his obituary in The Times was titled "Professor M'Intosh, the Doyen of Marine Zoology", but the New York Times had the more telegraphic approach with "Prof. MacIntosh, Scientist, Dies, 92" The definitive entry in Dict.

M' and Mc are prefixes derived from Mac (meaning "son of"). The M' prefix seems quite old and was probably variously employed at first (3-4 centuries ago). However, as people began standardising surnames, the names stabilised. Different branches of the clan MacIntosh would therefore become MacIntosh, M'Intosh, McIntosh etc., in addition to other spelling variants (MacIntoch and the like). Prof. M'Intosh usually used the M' spelling and this is clear from the account of his life by Gunther, A.E.(1977): William Carmichael M'Intosh, M.D., F.R.S.-St. Andrews University Publications No. LXI, Scottish Academic Press Ltd. 214 pp. This may still be available (stlg5 I think) from the Keeper of Manuscripts, University of St. Andrews Library, North Street, St. Andrews, Fife KY169TR. Albert Everard Gunther is the son of M'Intosh's nephew and from the family tree presented in the publication it appears that the name M'Intosh did not continue in St. Andrews. Prof M'Intosh was an only son (with 5 sisters) and he left no children to continue the family name. Today M'Intosh does not feature in the St. Andrews area telephone directory. So, how should we cite "M'Intosh"? Well, there are different approaches to the citation of Mac- and Mc- prefixes. I have seen them listed in a straight alphabetical way and with the Mc's before the other M's. Our librarians here treat Mc and Mac as equivalent, listing them alphabetically according to the main part of the name. Gunther himself employs this method, and as Mac, Mc and M' are variations of the same this is perhaps logical. In Gunther we have the following order listed in the index: Macadam, McAndrew, Macdonald, Macduff, M'Intosh, Mackenzie, Maclagan, Macvicar. Thus the names are treated as commencing with "Mac", but have their particular spellings retained. Hope this helps! Regards, Andy Mackie (not McKie) Dr. Andrew S.Y.

Molecular evidence that echiurans and pogonophorans are derived annelids. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA 94: 8006-8009 ABSTRACT "The Annelida, which includes the polychaetes and the clitellates, has long held the taxonomic rank of phylum. The unsegmented, mud-dwelling echiuran spoon worms and the gutless, deep-sea pogonophoran tube worms (including vestimentiferans) share several embryological and morphological features with annelids, but each group has also been considered as a separate metazoan phylum based on the unique characters they display. Phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from the nuclear gene elongation factor-1a place echiurans and pogonophorans within the Annelida. This result, indicating the derived loss of segmentation in echiurans, has profound implications for our understanding of the evolution of metazoan body plans, and challenges the traditional view of the phylum-level diversity and evolutionary relationships of protostome worms." List members may find the 2nd to last paragraph of the paper particularly challenging. :-) -- Geoff Read -- ANNELIDA LIST Server address = biosci-server@net.bio.net (un/subscribes) Discussion address = annelida@net.bio.net (talk to all members) List archives = URL:http://www.bio.net:80/hypermail/ANNELIDA/ Research resource = URL:http://www.keil.ukans.edu/~worms/annelid.html From daemon Mon Oct 27 13:22:20 1997 Received: (from daemon@localhost) by net.bio.net (8.6.12/8.6.6) id NAA13638 Message-Id: <199710272122.NAA13638@net.bio.net> To: annelida@net.bio.net Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 12:02:47 -0400 Reply-To: annelida@net.bio.net From: dmchugh@oeb.harvard.edu (Damhnait McHugh) Subject: Reprints: Echiurans & pogonophorans derived annelids If any of you would like a reprint of the paper mentioned below, please send me an e-mail request.

The pages had not even been separated (whatever that old binding style is called when the top of the pages need to be cut to read). Anyway, sadly, when the book arrived it looked like the package had gotten caught in a machine. It was shredded. The package had been loosely taped, and had a note saying that it had arrived in Juneau like this. Enough of the sad story. I was wondering if anyone had a ballpark figure of how much a book like that would cost to replace. I am currently attempting to get some recompensation from the post office, but am clueless about the value. I would appreciate any information.
