Topic: Linaeus


  
 [No title]
Linaeus held the reins of the now calm war horse, nervously waiting for word that his young grandson was safe.
Linaeus moved around the warrior and repeated her actions, tracing the door with his own fingertips.
Linaeus moved with speed uncommon for a man his age bringing the knife down quickly and cleanly slicing a deep gash across the palm of his right hand.

 Linaeus & his allergies
It was Linaeus Driddle who monopolised me. With his ill-health and allergies, he’d previously seemed the least significant of the crusaders.
When I came back in, Linaeus was perched on the edge of the night-commode, dabbing at his eyes with a huge linen handkerchief.
Linaeus rocked back and forth on the edge of the commode until I thought he was going to be sick.

 carolus linaeus information,carolus linnaeus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Carl Linnaeus, who wrote under the Latinized form of his name, carolus linaeus, was born at Stenbrohult, in the province of Smalandia in southern Sweden.
As a boy Linnaeuswas to be groomed for life as a churchman, as his father and maternal grandfather were, but he showed little enthusiasm for theprofession.
Although taxonomists, in almost any biological field, are familiar with the work of carolus linaeus, his contribution totaxonomy goes far beyond contributing so-called scientific names to many of the world's plants and animals.

 The Customer
Linaeus, a simple farmer she’d met just this morning, stood at the front of the line, peasants all of them, from what Xena could see.
In the gloaming, in the faint hint of a whisper, she sensed an arrow approaching, heading straight for Linaeus.
The day had been long and hard, and Xena had not escaped without sustaining her share of cuts and scrapes, but to the warrior princess, these were only minor annoyances.

 User:Patrick0Moran/Race rewrite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biology, a race was defined as a recognisable group forming all or part of a monotypic or polytipic species.
Humans clearly vary considerably -- enough to make early scientists accept the view of Carrolus Linaeus that humans should be divided into several sub-species
However, a distinct difference is only one of the two conditions that must be satisfied before a different form can be classified as a sub-species or even as a race -- lack of significant gene flow between populations.

 A short story of foraminifera
Linaeus in his "Histoire naturelle" (1766) recognized 15 species of foraminifera.
At the end of the XVIII century and the early beginning of the XIX century, numerous publication are written by Soldani, Fichtel and Moll, Lamarck, Defrance, De Blainville,…
This is Felix Dujardin (1835) who demonstrated that foraminifers were unicellular organisms and not cephalopods and considered them as protozoa.

 Knowledge in the field of bees diseases in the second half of nineteenth century
Binary classification created by Linaeus Carolus (1707-1778), Swedish botanist, contributed to the establishment and development of modern botany.
Linaeus Carolus also tried to classify diseases and created a special class of diseases and called it chaos, but this attempt was not successful.
In eighteenth and in the beginning of nineteenth century attempts to observe bees pests were made.

Regulated items will include trees with and without roots (e.g., Christmas trees), logs and wood chips, and mobile homes, as well as other household items that pose a risk of spreading gypsy moth.
Gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (Linaeus), is a serious pest of forests and shade trees.
While gypsy moth will continue to spread naturally, its dispersal and damage can be minimized by preventing the artificial movement of gypsy moth life stages.

The leap down should be an easy one, the leap of faith Linaeus had called it.

 A Kuhnian Analysis of Scientific Racism   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
It was the Swedish naturalist Linaeus, who elevated the popular racist sentiments of eighteenth century Europe to the level of a scientific paradigm.
In his Systema Naturae (1758), Linaeus described Homo Sapiens Afer (the Black African) as ‘ruled by caprice’, while Homo Sapiens Europeanis was supposedly ‘ruled by customs’.
Lineaus’ description was made at a time when taxonomy was rapidly gaining a well-earned reputation as a useful tool for exploring and making sense of the world.

In 1753 a Swedish botanist named Carl Lineaus compiled the most complete reference manual of botanical classifications to date entitled Species Planetarium.
Linaeus adopted Discordes' classification of cannabis sativa, but almost immediately some botanists argued that the newly studied Indian cannabis plant was distinctly different from the well-known European cannabis sativa grown for industrial and medical uses.
In 1783 a French biologist named Jean Lamark examined the two types in his compendium titled Encyclopedia.

The poor taxonomist must constantly fight the annoying property of fungi to routinely change their morphology to suit changing environmental conditions, a property that makes classification almost impossible.
Thirty years after Mendel, in 1894, Haekel was still trying to shoe-horn fungi into the 'two kingdom' classification scheme devised by Linaeus, and confusion and controversy has followed fungal classification ever since.
In 1955 people were still arguing about what organisms should be considered fungi!
