Welcome to the bloodbath..my Subspecies fan page In case you never heard of it, Subspecies is a series of vampire movies by Ted Nicolaou and Full Moon Pictures starring Anders Hove as the evil (yet very cool) vampire Radu. Subspecies (1991) A struggle for power between two brothers. Bloodstone: Subspecies II (1993) A young woman trying to cope with vampirism. www.angelfire.com /darkside/vladislas/contents.html   (248 words)

BLOOD OF SAINTS - Full Moon Pictures' SUBSPECIES films The series began with Subspecies (1991), followed by Bloodstone: Subspecies II (1993), Bloodlust: Subspecies III (1994), and the film that closes this arc, Subspecies IV: Bloodstorm (1998). Subspecies V, the much-awaited prequel, is apparently on long-term hold; more on that in a minute... In scanning the new content I see no reference to Subspecies, and there's very little of the older material still available from Full Moon as well (not even the Radu toys...) but this still can only be good news, especially as Band-san says he will be working on some projects with Ted Nicolaou (Hooray!). www.spookhouse.net /angelynx/hecatene/bloodofsaints.html   (803 words)

KOS Subspecies Review Although some subspecies are relatively straightforward to identify, others can only be identified in the hand, whilst a few might only be identifiable when compared with a series of skins in a museum. There are a number of records of some extremely rare subspecies that have been published without any supporting documentation, despite the fact that they are rarer and often more difficult to identify than many species for which descriptions are a pre-requisite for publication. The fact that these subspecies have been elevated to full species status demonstrates the need to treat the publication of rarer subspecies more critically than has often been the case in the past. www.kentos.org.uk /eandr/KOSSubspeciesReview.htm   (1722 words)

subspecies The long awaited fourth episode in the Subspecies series is finally out. It is not part of the Subspecies trilogy, but is related in that the main evil vampire in the one, Ash, (Jonathan Morris) is revealed to be Radu's offsping. Subspecies opens when Radu comes home to claim the Bloodstone, fabled to drip the blood of Saints, from his father. members.tripod.com /~MotherDark/subspecies.html   (582 words)

Brian Stableford: The Third Generation of Genre Science Fiction Series can use fixed sets but they are usually more various in their locations and thus tend to be shot in carefully-budgeted batches, but successful ones can be brought back year after year for 13- or 26-part seasons. There are now as many commercial magazines devoted to TV science fiction as there are sf magazines and their collective sales are an order of magnitude higher, while paperback books tied to TV series are at least as numerous as original sf novels, and have far higher unit sales. The novels spun off by various TV series are obliged by their adherence to the formulas and politics of the medium to retain all the key characteristics which their parent shows exhibit. www.depauw.edu /sfs/essays/stablessay.htm   (3986 words)

Cryptozoology The Beast of Loch Ness: Birth of a Legend is a companion piece to the NOVA television series program about the Loch Ness Monster. These photos appear to show an entire herd of elephants, which suggests that the pygmies previously encountered in the wild and in zoos were not just unusually small members of the forest elephant subspecies.

ICZN Code Syntypes (cotypes, types) are either expressedly designated or inferred from non-existence of holotype or lectotype within a type series from before 2000, having either been seen by the author or by the authors of earlier descriptions to which was referred to in the description. Type series comprises all type specimens, name-bearing types are holotype (fixed originally), syntypes (all type specimens together), lectotype (fixed subsequently) or neotype (fixed subsequently), other specimens are paratypes (syntypes minus holotype) and paralectotypes (syntypes minus lectotype). If there are subspecies of a species, the subspecies containing the type of the species is the nominotypical subspecies and the subspecies has the same name as the species. www.animalbase.uni-goettingen.de /zooweb/animalbase-code-user.html   (9853 words)

Ornithos - Systematics of the [Larus argentatus-cachinnans-fuscus] complex revisited The variation within [cachinnans] remains understudied (is ‘ponticus’ a good subspecies?) and the high variation of the bare-part coloration in some taxa (particularly in [mongolicus] and [vegae] but also in 'omissus') is unexplained. The American [L. smithsonianus], Heuglin’s [L. heuglini], Caspian [L. cachinnans], Armenian [L. armenicus], and Steppe Gulls [L. barabensis] are monotypic (the ranking of [barabensis] however remains disputed, some authors consider it as a subspecies of [L. heuglini]). The large white-headed gulls consist of up to 33 taxa (the number of accepted species and subspecies varies with time and author) which have a mostly northern Holarctic distribution: the only representatives in the Southern Hemisphere are five taxa considered as subspecies of Kelp Gull [L. dominicanus]. www.eurobirding.com /birdingmagazines/artinfo.php?id=6548   (9853 words)

Unbenanntes Dokument Latter was described as a subspecies of the widespread Erosaria cernica. Their distinction from the group 1 cernica cernica as Pacific subspecies is still under study, and likely to be possible on account of their zoogeography. Comparing the Easter Island population with all other populations of Erosaria cernica known to me I arrive at a point to question that considering leforti a mere subspecies of cernica is quite correct. cowries.info /shell/cernica/leforti.html   (9853 words)

International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Tokyo Code) - Article 4 A plant may thus be assigned to taxa of the following ranks (in descending sequence): regnum, subregnum, divisio or phylum, subdivisio or subphylum, classis, subclassis, ordo, subordo, familia, subfamilia, tribus, subtribus, genus, subgenus, sectio, subsectio, series, subseries, species, subspecies, vari-etas, subvarietas, forma, subforma. The secondary ranks of taxa in descending sequence are tribe (tribus) between family and genus, section (sectio) and series (series) between genus and species, and variety (varietas) and form (forma) below species. If a greater number of ranks of taxa is desired, the terms for these are made by adding the prefix sub- to the terms denoting the principal or secondary ranks. www.bgbm.fu-berlin.de /iapt/nomenclature/code/tokyo-e/Art_04.htm   (9853 words)

OASIS SUPPLEMENTARY MONOGRAPH #1 B I O L O G I C A L E V O L U T I O N AN OVERVIEW Mayr [86, p.281] points out "Here then we have a series of related, allopatric populations showing every stage from the local genetic race, to the ordinary subspecies, to the almost specifically distinct subspecies ([X.] xiphidium), to the full species (couchianus)." Three phenomena give evidence for geographic speciation. Here is one such case : A Central American fish, Xiphoporus maculatus, that lives in rivers up the east coast exibits various stages of speciation, from simple diversity of a single population, to subspecies, to full isolated species. Specific examples of allopatric speciation can be found in [53]. www.skepticfiles.org /evo2/bioevo.htm   (6274 words)

Gardens of St. Thomas Aquinas Parish There are about a dozen PCN species and many more subspecies in this series, plus a myriad of natural, as well as commercial produced, hybrids occurring within the Californicae category. Most of the Californicae on the market are hybrids and can be gotten via gallon cans at local nurseries. Here on the West Coast (or as my nephew refers to it, the "Left Coast"),we should be much more interested in the iris subsection Apogon, series Californicae, now more widely known as Pacific Coast Natives (PCNs) - a group of species particularly adept at growing in our climate conditions. www.paloaltocatholic.org /gardens.html   (6274 words)

Auk, The: 100 years ago in the American ornithologists' union Presentations were made on the bird life of the Farallon Islands (Frank M. Chapman) and Laysan Island (Walter K. Fisher), the origin of migration (P. Tavernier), the exaltation of subspecies (Jonathan Dwight, Jr.), the death of young birds due to excess rains (B. Bowdish), and the history of collecting permits (T. Palmer). In 1903, the AOU held its twenty-first annual congress in Philadelphia, and published volume 20 (new series) and volume 28 (old series) of The Auk. Charles B.

O_tithonus I commend the works of such authors as Tyler, Brown (Swallowtails of the Americas), Manfred Spaeth (Butterflies of the World series: Agrias) for their efforts to stress the interrelationships between species/subspecies and dispel some of the fragmentation brought by superfluous differentiation. Does this mean that we represent separate subspecies?

Long-toed Salamander There are 5 recognized subspecies of the Long-Toed Salamander and the color pattern varies among them. The stripe may be a continuous line (with either neat or jagged edges), a series of fused spots or even a series of separate spots, the color of the stripe varies as well, and can be gold, yellow, green or tan in appearance. Long-toed Salamanders are found in a variety of habitats, from arid sagebrush communities to alpine meadows, but usually not very far from a water source. www.npwrc.usgs.gov /narcam/idguide/ambymac.htm   (567 words)

Nosferatu page Schreck's vampire is also the ugliest in film history." The latter fact was certainly recognized by the producers of the TV mini-series SALEM'S LOT and the low budget SUBSPECIES series who unhesitatingly patterned their blood-suckers after NOSFERATU. However, it never gained the attention of a major distributor and the limited showings it received everywhere were always under the auspices of a film society, and for good reason. Although he had directed seven films prior to NOSFERATU, he was not well known outside of the German cinema circle. www.silentsaregolden.com /featurefolder4/Nosferatucommentary.html   (567 words)

Lefalophodon: Joel Asaph Allen Allen's recognition of variation within populations and integradation across geographic gradients helped to overturn the typological species concept current in the mid-1800s, setting out the principle that intergradating populations should be treated as subspecies instead of separate species. This idea led to the widespread adoption of trinomial names (i.e., names including subspecies) by American vertebrate zoologists, an approach Allen helped to spread by his editorship of the Auk and co-authorship of the influential 1886 American Ornithologists' Union (AOU) code of nomenclature. One of the first leaders of the American conservationist movement, Allen began his campaign to protect American game species with a monograph on the bison and a series of related articles in 1876. www.nceas.ucsb.edu /~alroy/lefa/Allen.html   (567 words)

IZN-307.html Originally, tigers ranged more or less continuously from the Caspian to the Amur and the Sunda Islands; common sense would suggest that at that time they formed a cline rather than a series of discrete subspecies, and recent morphological and genetic studies point to the same conclusion. Today it is believed that these are not true subspecies but rather clines of a common population reaching from the foothills of the Himalayas to Sumatra. The most common hornbills in captivity belong to the genus Tockus, and of the 14 species, nine have bred. www.zoonews.ws /IZN/307/IZN-307.html   (20989 words)

Comments to list of longhorn beetles (Cerambycoidea) of the former USSR The subspecies was described as A. dahli songarica Kostin, 1973 (a series of syntypes from Chernaia Rechka near Lepsinsk in my collection) and in fact is a local form of A. alternans, as well as A. altaica tarbagataica (a series of syntypes from Aktugai in Tarbagatai in my collction). The species was recorded for Caucasus by Lobanov et al., (1982) and for Armenia (Megri) by Danilevsky, Miroshnikov (1985), both records were without exact data. #325 A. lateralis was recorded for USSR (Lobanov et al., 1982) on the base of old doubtful data (Pic, 1910; Reitter,1898) and must be exluded from the list of the region. www.zin.ru /Animalia/Coleoptera/eng/cer_reme.htm   (20989 words)
