The role of birds in the epizootiology of eastern encephalitis

The closely related King Rail (Rallus elegans) and Clapper Rail (Rallus longirostris) are characteristic of distinct types of habitat in the coastal plain along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Ordinarily, King Rails are found in both fresh and brackish tidal marshes, and Clapper Rails in tidal salt marshes. In a...

Determination of 2-isovaleryl-1,3-indandione with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. Rodenticide Analysis.
C. M. Menzie, V. A. Adomaitis, W. L. Reichel
1962, Analytical Chemistry (34) 516-518
At present, three 2-alkyl-1,3-indandiones (PMP, pival, and diphacinon) are widely used as rodenticides. Because analytical procedures now in use are empirical and do not furnish adequate or positive means for distinguishing among these closely related compounds, studies were undertaken to develop a sensitive and specific method for the determination...
Evaluating causes of population change in North American insectivorous songbirds
C.S. Robbins
1962, Audubon Field Notes (16) 142
Although the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) is a principal source of information regarding populations of most North American bird species, many features of the survey complicate analysis of population change. Correlation studies based on BBS data cannot be used to unambiguously define cause and effect relationships....
