    Get PDF
    Hydrocolus heggiensis, a new species of predacious water beetle, is described from granite monadnocks in Georgia and one location in South Carolina. It most closely resembles H. stagnalis (Gemminger and Harold) but differs in range, genitalia, and elytral punctation. Photographs, drawings, and an interpolation of the new species into existing keys are given

    Weevils of the genus Cercopeus Schoenherr from South Carolina, USA (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae)

    Six new species of the weevil genus Cercopeus Schoenherr are described from South Carolina: C. alexi, C. cornelli, C. femoratus, C. paulus, C. skelleyi, and C. tibialis. Three other species also found in South Carolina are re-described: C. chrysorrhoeus (Say), C. maspavancus Sleeper, and C. strigicollis Sleeper. Keys to known males and females of all 17 species of Cercopeus are given, along with photographs of habitus, leg features, and antennae, and line illustrations of genitalia. Nearly all specimens of the new species were collected from January-March and these species are winter activ

    Proceedings of the 1993 Georgia Water Resources Conference, April 20-21, 1993, Athens, Georgia.Within the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), an extensive hydrologic network exists to record and transmit currently sensed data to the Automated Data Processing System (ADAPS; Dempster 1990). Data values are recorded at field sampling sites on electronic data-col1ection platforms (DCP). These values are transmitted by satellite to a ground station and by telecommunications lines to a USGS District office. There they are processed within ADAPS on a Prime minicomputer. Data that exceed predefined thresholds are identified as alert values. These data help alert water-resource specialists that hydrologic events are occurring. Knowledge of the current alert status at sampling sites within a State is of critical importance during floods, hurricanes, and other extreme hydrologic events. This report describes a system of computer programs designed to display current information from a hydrologic alert network.Sponsored and Organized by: U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis book was published by the Institute of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602 with partial funding provided by the U.S. Department of Interior, Geological Survey, through the Georgia Water Research Institute as authorized by the Water Resources Research Act of 1984 (P.L. 98-242).
