From the hardy moose of Maine's northeastern forests, westward to the spectacular humpback whale of the Hawaiian offshore waters, our state's faunal or animal symbols are special and represent America's rich geographic and biological diversity. Mammals, birds, fish, insects, shells, crustaceans, reptiles and amphibians have been officially adopted by the fifty state legislatures and four territorial governments to symbolically recognize their proud natural heritage. Beginning in the 1920s, many of the state animals were chosen by dedicated campaigning and the popular vote of school children while others were elected with backing from conservation organizations, animal interest groups and concerned legislators. The reasons are many: native origins, uniqueness, emulative qualities, tribute to individuals or groups, service to humankind, economic significance, rare and endangered and threat of extinction. In this reference book, over 350 state faunal symbols are presented with a brief informative text that highlights the adoptive legislation and their natural and social history. The color photo montages add visual appeal.

This book, developed under the auspices of the International Association for Plant Physiology, provides a handy guide to preferred terminology, symbols, and units of measurement in the plant sciences. Some chapters include formulas and definitions of specialized terms, while others include recommendations for suitable units based on the International System for Units (SI). The appendices offer guidelines on presenting scientific data, including principles of grammar, standards for effective oral and poster presentations, and reporting on data from experiments that utilized growth chambers. Each chapter has been written by an expert and reviewed by several others; discussions are condensed for easy reference, but still thorough enough to answer virtually any question concerning plant terminology.

This paper is basically an alpha code and name listing of forest and rangeland grasses, sedges, rushes, forbs, shrubs, and trees of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. The code expedites recording of vegetation inventory data and is especially useful to those processing their data by contemporary computer systems. Editorial and secretarial personnel will find the name and authorship lists to be handy desk references.
