	Hall of Fame - Thoroughbred - Nearctic, 1977
		The turning point in E.P. Taylor’s quest to breed world-champion thoroughbreds came in 1952 at the Newmarket December Sales in England when he paid $35,000 (a huge sum for a mare at that time) for *Lady Angela, who was in foal to the great Italian-bred sire, Nearco.
		Nearctic was a brilliant race horse, precocious enough to win the Saratoga Special at two, sound enough to race until he was five, and talented enough to win in the United States.
		Nearctic stood at stud in Canada until 1967, when he was syndicated for $1,050,000, an unusally high figure for a 13-year-old horse.

	Family PTEROMALIDAE
		Sometimes a host approach may work (e.g., a useful paper for identifying pteromalid parasitoids of Nearctic muscoid Diptera is that of Rueda and Axtell (1985) which includes over 150 SEM photos of the 10 most common pteromalids associated with these flies).
		The only known Nearctic macromesine appears to have a triangular projection at the apex of the scutellum.
		The Nearctic members of this subfamily were revised by Yoshimoto (1977a).

	Generic Diagnoses - Online Catalog of Ants of North America
		The Nearctic region is home to 27 species in three genera with the vast majority of species in genus Neivamyrmex.
		In the Nearctic region, this is of the smaller subfamilies of ants, with most species found in the tropical regions of the world.
		Most of the Nearctic forms are either northern extensions of Neotropical taxa or have been introduced by commerce from other parts of the world.

	Nearctic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The Nearctic is one of the eight terrestrial ecozones dividing the Earth's land surface (see [http://www.panda.org/about_wwf/where_we_work/ecoregions/global200/pages/mainmap.htm map]).
		The Nearctic ecozone covers most of North America, including Greenland and the highlands of Mexico.
		A former land bridge across the Bering Strait between Asia and North America allowed many plants and animals to move between these continents, and the Nearctic ecozone shares many plants and animals with the Palearctic.

	Nearctic Knots in Scania
		In Iceland Nearctic birds occur as transmigrants in July and August, reaching Denmark and the Waddensea in August.
		Another indication that autumn Knots in Scania are of Nearctic origin was delivered by a recovery in the winter season 95-96: ringed 1y Falsterbo peninsula 4.10.95, dead Scheveningen, Holland 5.2.96.
		The ratio Nearctics : Siberians in late summer and autumn is a matter for conjecture, before any far-reaching conclusions are drawn from existing recoveries, there should perhaps be more information about the complete time-table of Siberian Knots; in autumn many Siberian Dunlin (to: Dunlin Calidris alpina phenology and biometry in the Sound area, S.

	Conservation Ecology: Mammalian herbivores in the boreal forests: their numerical fluctuations and use by man
		The native species inhabiting forest landscapes of the boreal zone in the Nearctic and Palaearctic are listed in Table 1.
		In the Nearctic, there are 31 species of mammalian herbivores distributed among eight families, and in the Palaearctic, the corresponding figures are 24 species and seven families.
		The snowshoe hare, only present in the Nearctic, is another example of a species that either fluctuates in a "typical" "cyclic" pattern (about 10 yr), or does not show any "cyclic" pattern at all (Keith 1990).

		It was fortuitous that the new emphasis on characterization of the aquatic larval stage coincided with a shift of general field studies of mayflies from terrestrial adult-oriented entomological studies to aquatic-oriented benthological and limnological studies.
		Close relationships of the Nearctic, Oriental, and Palearctic regions are explicable by their contiguity for a considerable tectonic history dating to the early Jurassic approximately 180 mya (3, 91).
		It should be noted, however, that the presence of Cloeon in the Nearctic is due to the recent introduction of an adventive species, C. cognatum Stephens (9, 62).

		Thus, to be accurate, Partners in Flight concentrates on nearctic birds that migrate to the neotropics.

		AN ANALYSIS OF EASTERN NEARCTIC WOODPECKER DRUMS By Robert D. Stark, Ph.D. The Ohio State University, 2002 Professor David Stetson, Advisor Woodpecker drums are a form of long-distance communication and have been implicated in a variety of territorial and reproductive behaviors.
		Drums are produced as a series of rapid strikes with the bird’s bill on a resonant surface, not associated with foraging or cavity excavation.
		The drums of all eastern Nearctic woodpecker species were analyzed to test for specificity in this signal.

	Genetic structure of populations of Ochlerotatus dorsalis (Meigen, 1830)
		Idh-2 locus in all Nearctic populations was monomorphic (Shultz
		Estimates of genetic variability showed that the Palaearctic population ranked higher than the Nearctic population in percentage of polymorphic loci, the mean number of alleles per locus, and the value of mean heterozygosity.
		Observed differences in values of genetic structure parameters were probably due to association of genetic variability, level of ecological heterogeneity, effective size of populations and historical events, as well as independent evolution of geographically distant populations.

	Ornis Svecica - Stopover of Northern Wheatears [Oenanthe oenanthe] at Helgoland: where do the migratory routes of ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		According to measurements from bird ringing, Northern Wheatears of both Scandinavian (subspecies [oenanthe]) and Nearctic (subspecies [leucorhoa]) origin stopover on Helgoland (southeastern North Sea) during spring and autumn migration.
		In release experiments during spring migration, Scandinavian birds headed in directions between northwest and northeast, while Nearctic birds departed in directions between southwest and north.
		Most Nearctic Wheatears are assumed to switch their direction to northwest already west of Helgoland, some do this on Helgoland but some continue on a northerly course and then head northwestwards in southern Norway.
