ridgway , 1903 – san benedicto i , in revillagigedo is ( off s baja california ) .
til that the extinction of the san benedicto rock wren , a previously unendangered species , can be traced almost to the minute on the morning of august 1st , 1952 , when a volcanic eruption covered their entire island .
this animal is unique , and applicable to the big east conference , for another reason : history knows the exact moment it went extinct . on august 1 , 1952 , the active san benedicto volcano erupted , burying the bird ' s habitat ten feet deep in ash and pyroclastic flow . the san benedicto rock wren was never seen again .
til the san benedicto rock wren became extinct around 9 am on august 1 1952 . the extinction was recorded with such precision because observers were offshore , documenting how the island was being blasted with ejecta from a volcanic eruption .

the rock wren is well named . most descriptions of rock wren habitat mention “rock” for this pale wren of arid , western north america . still , these wrens are also found in nonrocky habitats , as long as there exist areas “rich in crevices , interstices , passageways , recesses , and nooks and crannies of diverse shapes and sizes” (

these wrens are more easily heard than seen . rock wren songs are unmistakable , but beauty lies in the ears of the listener . according to florence m . bailey (

is a very plain name for a bundle of fire known as the rock wren . it is heard , up on the bluffs , up in the rocks , but it is seen only by those who climb the bluffs regularly , and then it is seen only irregularly . . . . after reading even the most elementary writings of the rock wren i am shocked at society ' s ignorance of this bird

two proposed island races , pulverius ( from san nicolas i and san clemente i , off sw california ) and proximus ( from san martín i , off nw baja california ) , both considered indistinguishable from nominate ; described races costaricensis ( nw costa rica ) and fasciatus ( nw nicaragua ) merged with guttatus , but one or both possibly merit recognition . race guttatus notably more heavily barred below , but voice seemingly very similar to other races . five extant subspecies recognized .
mystery . rock wrens have been little studied and most information about the biology of this species is anecdotal . one curious aspect of this wren ' s biology has received much notice but virtually no study : rock wrens usually build a pavement or walkway of small , flat stones or pebbles that leads to the nest cavity . the nest is usually located in a rock crevice , occasionally far out of sight , but the pavement may give an external sign of the nest ' s location . the function of this pavement is open to speculation .

became the nickname rather than
saxa .
rock or rocks is a somewhat reasonable name for a sports team . but by latching onto

native to new zealand , kiwis face potential extinction from a range of introduced predators that are also killing many other native bird species .
from the flightless dodo in mauritius to the passenger pigeon in north america , 279 bird species and subspecies have vanished in the last 500 years , researchers estimate . the rate of extinctions worldwide peaked in the early 1900s and then started to decline , but a new study found that bird die - outs have been on the rise since the middle of the 20th century .
until this study it had been hoped the rate of extinction was slowing ,
researcher judit szabo , of charles darwin university in australia , said in a statement .
historically most extinctions have occurred on islands , particularly those in the pacific , but most of the really susceptible species are long gone .
bird extinctions mainly occurred on islands in previous centuries as humans expanded in the pacific and colonized the americas , disrupting fragile ecosystems . but as island extinction rates have been declining over the past century , more and more species have disappeared on the continents , szabo and her team said .
their study , published online monday ( oct . 8 ) in the journal plos one , shows that habitat destruction for agriculture development is the main cause of recent extinctions on continents and poses the greatest current threat to endangered birds . unsustainable hunting and the introduction of invasive species , such as cats and rats , have been the greatest drivers of extinctions in past centuries , according to the study .
the researchers warn that a combination of invasive species and habitat loss can pose a particularly high threat to birds . for examples , pigs were introduced to the hawaiian islands several centuries ago - - first by polynesians , then again by europeans . the animals ' foraging changes the native landscape in a way that promotes the spread of invasive mosquitoes , which in turn carry bird diseases like avian malaria and avian pox .
the researchers said conservation interventions have helped prevent at least 31 bird extinctions , but now there are many species that only survive because of constant conservation efforts .
this list would have been much longer were it not for the work being done around the world to stop extinctions ,
study researcher stuart butchart , of birdlife international , said in a statement .
but we need to scale up our efforts substantially to avoid further human - induced extinctions .

you know that phenomenon where you look at your watch , and then you don ' t know what time it is ? i get that every year when usf plays georgetown . every year , i look up the answer to the
what ' s a hoya ?
question , and by next year i ' ve forgotten it and i have to look it up again .
no one seems to know exactly when or how the term
hoya saxa
was first used at georgetown . many years ago , there was a team at georgetown called the
stonewalls ,
and it is suggested that a student applied the greek and latin terms and dubbed them
hoya saxa ,
meaning
what rocks !
hoya has since become a nickname for georgetown’s athletic teams and students . hoia is from the greek word hoios , meaning
such a
or
what a .
the neuter plural of this word is hoia , which agrees with the neuter plural of the latin word saxa , meaning rocks ; thus we have hoya— substituting the letter
y
for
i .
before 1900 , every georgetown student studied both greek and latin , so there was no need to explain what the expression meant .
on november 27 , 2012 , tulane university was invited to the big east conference . georgetown and six other big east schools announced that they would never be seen again either .

stenodus nelma , known alternatively as the nelma , sheefish , inconnu or connie , is a commercial species of freshwater whitefish in the family salmonidae .

it is widespread in the arctic rivers from the kola peninsula ( white sea basin ) eastward across siberia to the anadyr river and also in the north american basins of the yukon river and mackenzie river .

we’ve been crunching the numbers from the 50 or so destitute migrant families nelma has accompanied to london local authorities since our accompanying scheme began in the spring of 2016 .
a delicately crafted display font with a lot of character , nelma is perfect for setting beautiful type with an impact . this font is distributed as a . eps file .
in 1948 , nelma produced a documentary on the lumber industry . this 25 - minute film shows some of the early processes , markets , and technologies in the lumber industry at that time .
the northeastern lumber manufacturers association ( nelma ) is the rules writing agency for eastern white pine lumber and the grading authority for eastern spruce , balsam fir , spruce - pine - fir ( spfs ) grouping , and other commercially important eastern softwood lumber species . in addition , nelma is a leading agency for export wood packaging certification and the marketing voice for the wood products industry in the northeast .
nelma runs an accompanying scheme for destitute migrant families with no recourse to public funds . nelma volunteers accompany parents who are requesting support from social services due to homelessness and / or destitution . unlawful local authority ‘gatekeeping’ of support for families with no recourse to public funds is systemic . families seeking support often encounter intimidation , aggression , racism , and misinformation . they are regularly told they cannot be helped .
hi ! i am nelma carmelo . a good - looking single mom . i have 4 kids . i ' m willing to have a long - distance relationship . and willing to relocate in other country
since mid - 2016 nelma and others have been trying to hold haringey council to account for the local authority’s systematic poor treatment of destitute migrant families seeking social services support under s17 of the children act 1989 .
the authors investigated the growth of straminipilous organisms on the eggs of inconnu ( stenodus leucichthys ) and nelma ( stenodus nelma ) in water from three different eutrophication levels . thirty ( 30 ) straminipilous species were found growing on the investigated eggs ( of both fish species ) used as baits . the majority of species has been found on the eggs of inconnu ( 20 ) in comparison with those found on the eggs of nelma ( 15 ) . the highest number of infected eggs of both investigated species has been observed also in the water from biała river ( 27 . 3 % of the inconnu and 21 . 6 % of the nelma ; the most eutrophication ) , the smallest in water from supraśl river ( 6 . 3 and 8 . 8 % respectively ; the less eutrophication ) . these differences for both species were statistically significant . amino acid , carbohydrate and urease tests were used .
nelma accompanying is about solidarity , and providing emotional and practical support . local authorities often behave aggressively and disrespectfully towards families in need . often the intent is to wear people down . it can really help to have another person there .
“144 , 000 undocumented children is a problem the government must solve . there is no benefit to society in people being in this position . the government needs to reduce the barriers to them regularising their status . ' ' @ commonshomeaffs basically = nelma
nelma brings together activists from across london to campaign on issues faced by migrants in vulnerable positions in our communities . we challenge injustices towards families with no recourse to public funds ( nrpf ) and we coordinated a campaign against the home office’s former policy of detaining and deporting eea national rough sleepers .
welcome to the nelma grader academy , a comprehensive on - line training resource for individuals that seek to learn more about the intricacies of lumber grading or for those within the lumber industry that want to increase their proficiency level . the academy enlists the following tools to enhance the lumber grading education experience :
construction of dams led to the loss of all spawning grounds for the species ( the volga , ural and terek drainages ) . increasing illegal fishing in the volga and in the caspian sea is now a very critical concern . stenodus nelma was introduced in the northern volga drainage and is now expanding and might threaten surviving populations and cultivated stocks through hybridization .

native stocks are reportedly extinct and survival depends exclusively on stocking . in the volga all spawning grounds were above volgograd dam . in 1959 only a few spawners remained . up to 33 million ( 1988 ) juveniles were stocked during soviet times . between 1996 - 99 only 600 , 000 juveniles were stocked and the spawning population is in a drastic decline again . in 2004 , only about 100 spawners were caught below volgograd dam . in the 1960s , it was already extremely rare in the ural , where it has not been recorded since .

, which exposes the active collaboration of london’s mayor , local councils and homelessness charities delivering street outreach services – st mungo’s , thames reach and change , grow , live ( cgl ) .
homeless people on the streets of london have become prime targets for immigration raids , in which some of the city’s most vulnerable people are detained and deported . several nights a week , immigration patrols are out targeting rough sleepers in london .
whilst arrests are carried out by home office “immigration compliance and enforcement” ( ice ) teams , they rely on joint patrols and other intelligence provided by street outreach services . they may also see their role increase in deciding whether or not it is ‘proportional’ to remove people , effectively giving them the power to decide who is worthy of remaining in the uk and who can be disposed of .
outreach teams from charities st mungo’s , thames reach , and cgl conduct regular joint “visits” with immigration enforcement officers , as often as fortnightly in central boroughs . freedom of information ( foi ) responses show 141 such patrols organised by the gla and 12 london boroughs last year . this figure does not include westminster or the city of london , the biggest concentration of london homelessness , where patrols are likely to be even more frequent .
127 people were deported as a result of a a two - month pilot operation in westminster alone .
charity outreach teams routinely pass on locations of non - uk rough sleepers to ice through the london - wide chain database and through local data co - operation agreements . this intelligence may lead to many more arrests .
as opposed to workplace raids which largely hit south asian migrants , eu and other european economic area ( eea ) nationals are the main targets here , as they made up nearly half of london rough sleepers last year . migrants from romania , poland , and other east european countries are particularly affected .
under new home office rules introduced in may 2016 , european rough sleepers can be arrested for deportation on their first night sleeping rough , as this is considered a “misuse” of their european “treaty rights” . outreach workers may be called on to guide immigration officers in deciding whether detention is “proportional” .
tough policy on migrant rough sleepers was “intensely lobbied” for by westminster council , and actively pushed by the gla and other members of the “mayor’s rough sleeping group” , including senior managers from st mungo’s , thames reach and other charities .
the rough sleeper deportation system is at the cutting edge of theresa may’s “hostile environment” approach rolling out across schools , hospitals , housing , and other areas of everyday life . this approach relies on turning teachers , doctors and nurses , charity workers , and other citizens into home office informers .
the “hostile environment” is based on collaboration . it can be broken by solidarity and resistance . examples of refusal by some homelessness workers and campaigners may start to show the way .

stenodus leucichthys is a species of freshwater whitefish in the family salmonidae . in the strict sense its natural distribution is restricted to the caspian sea basin , and it is known as beloribitsa . [ 1 ] the beloribitsa is now considered extinct in the wild , but survives in cultured stocks . [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
at a higher level , the genus stenodus is not phylogenetically distinct from the broader lake whitefish genus coregonus , although it is phenotypically characterized by a specialized predator morphology . [ 7 ]
. it is generally silver in color with a green , blue or brown back . the meat is white , flaky and somewhat oily . an adult fish weighs from 14 to 25 kilograms ( 31 to 55 lb ) . the fish eat
beloribitsa used to inhabit particularly the volga , ural and terek rivers , and migrate up to 3 , 000 kilometres ( 1 , 900 mi ) upstream from the caspian to their spawning grounds in the spring . following the construction of dams and hydropower reservoirs , the migration and natural reproduction has been impeded , and the taxon is now considered as extinct in the wild by the iucn . [ 1 ] [ 8 ] the stock however survives in hatcheries and some populations are maintained by stocking . [ 3 ]

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
phylogenetic analysis of the genus kinyongia , including individuals assigned to k . oxyrhina from several localities , suggests that this is a species complex ( tolley et al . 2011 ) .
justification : although it has a moderately large eoo ( > 22 , 000km 2 ) , the area of suitable habitat within this range is not large ( ca . 1 , 500 km 2 ) , is fragmented and is subject to some disturbance . this species is therefore listed as near threatened . the majority of the forest fragments are under protection , but should pressures from agriculture and logging intensify , its status will require re - evaluation and it is likely to qualify for a threatened category applying criterion b . furthermore , expected taxonomic changes in the future will probably result in splitting taxa , each with reduced ranges sizes , and re - evaluation of this species , and any new species would be necessary .
this species is endemic to tanzania ' s eastern arc mountains , where it is found in afrotemperate forest fragments in the uluguru , udzungwa , nguru and rubeho mountains ( tilbury 2010 ) . kinyongia oxyrhina is most likely to be a complex of species , and additional taxonomic work would result in the information on its distribution being modified .
there is no information on the abundance of this species . this species occurs in forest fragments that are reasonably well protected and is probably not undergoing any population declines .
this species is found in afrotemperate forest , and has also been observed at the forest edge ( tilbury 2010 ) .
annual cites export quotas for k . oxyrhina between 2000 and 2013 ranged from 20 - 78 ( 32 average ) captive born individuals per year from tanzania ( cites 2013 ) . between 1977 and 2011 ( 2012 and 2013 trade data are incomplete or unavailable ) a total of 59 live individuals were exported from tanzania for the pet trade ( total of all personal and commercial exports ) , of which 13 were reported as wild collected ( unep - wcmc 2013 ) . all exports occurred between 1993 and 2011 , with all but 9 individuals having been exported between 2003 and 2011 , during which time no more than 8 individuals were exported per year ( unep - wcmc 2013 ) . no other trade is reported , although imported specimens of this species are suspected of being present in the captive market in numbers that exceed documented exports , suggesting illegal trade and / or harvest may occur on a limited basis .
ongoing threats from subsistence agriculture and timber extraction exist to forest in this region of tanzania , however these are not of immediate concern for this species because the majority of the habitat is reasonably well protected .
no conservation actions recommended at this time . however , urgent research into the taxonomy of this species is needed , followed by re - assessments based on any taxonomic changes . this species occurs mainly within forest reserves which are protected officially , but these lack any enforcement whatsoever . so in theory the species occurs in protected habitat , but in practice the habitat is unprotected . the species occurs in uzungwa scarp forest reserve , lulanda forest ( is not a fr ) , ndundulu forest reserve ( now within the kilombero nature reserve ) , uluguru north forest reserve ( now nature reserve ) , nguru south fr ( now part of the mkingu nr ) nguu north forest reserve
