Post Office, Marshall, Tex.
Photo-postcard of the Marshall, Texas, post office building showing the facade and the west side of the building. Two automobiles are parked in front of the building and one is visible on the side. Two pedestrians are walking on the sidewalk. The building is located at 100 E. Houston St. Bushes have been planted across the front and side of the building. There is a metal trash bin with a pyramidal top next to the streetlight at the right corner of the building. There also is a flagpole and highway directional signs. The title at the bottom of the image is "Post Office - Marshall, Tex." and the code M 215 is on the lower right. There is no postmark or message on the back of the card, but handwritten in ink is, "Post office Marshall, Texas. 1962 changed to Federal Building." Printed between the message and address sections: "All rights reserved - The L. L. Cook Co., Milwaukee.

Djeboa bomiensis Cook 1966
Djeboa bomiensis (Cook, 1966) (Figs. 10 A–F) Mideopsis (Djeboa) bomiensis Cook 1966: 239. Material examined: Type series: FMC, Liberia; holotype female, Suehn road, approximately four miles north of Bomi Hills Road, 30.xi. 1957 Cook (Coll. 84); paratypes: same site and date as holotype 3 / 3 /0; Coll. 36, 1/0/0; Coll. 41, 1/0/0; Coll. 76, 0/ 1 /0; Coll. 83, 3/ 1 /0; Coll. 88, 1/ 4 /0; Coll. 89, 0/ 2 /0; Coll. 91, 0/ 1 /0; Coll. 93,3/ 2 /0; Coll. 94, 2/ 3 /0; Coll. 95, 1/ 2 /0; Coll. 96, 1/ 2 /0 (see Cook 1966 for more details). General features: Dorsal shield oval (L/W ratio 1.1–1.2), with medial depression (Fig. 10 A); muscle scars with slightly pronounced thickenings, located anterior and posterior to the postocularia; dorsal shield blue in colour except periphery; gnathosomal bay of a modified Y-shape, noticeably narrowing in posterior half; tips of Cx-I ending posterior to frontal margin; medial margin of Cx-IV reduced to a median angle; Cx-III and -IV with a few longitudinal striae (two pairs on Cx-IV). Palp (Fig. 10 D): P- 1 without a dorsal seta; P- 2 with straight ventral and convexly bowed dorsal margin; P- 3 maximum height proximally, ventral margin concave; P- 4 equally narrowing from the base to tip. Legs: I-L (Fig. 10 E) with I-L- 6 L/H ratio 2.6; IV-L: Fig. 10 F. Discussion: In shape and setation of palp (with P- 1 lacking seta), Djeboa bomiensis is similar to D. rotundata K. Viets, 1914. The latter differs most noticeably in the rounded shape of the idiosoma, and also in a more slender P- 3 and P- 4 (Cook 1966). A re-examination of type material shows that the statement of Cook (1966) that swimming hairs are absent in D. bomiensis (followed later in the key of K.O.Viets 1970) is erroneous. Distribution: Liberia, widely distributed and numerous.Published as part of Pešić, Vladimir, Cook, David, Gerecke, Reinhard & Smit, Harry, 2013, The water mite family Mideopsidae (Acari: Hydrachnidia): a contribution to the diversity in the Afrotropical region and taxonomic changes above species level, pp. 1-75 in Zootaxa 3720 (1) on page 22, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3720.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/28502
Sap Flow and Water Consumption of Captain Cook Tree [Cascabela thevetia (l.) Lippold].
A two-year field study documented the diurnal and nocturnal sap flow rates and water consumption of young (YCC), adult (ACC) and mature (MCC) Captain Cook trees [Cascabela thevetia (L.) Lippold] that were invading a riparian habitat in northern Queensland. For comparison, two native trees [black tea tree (Melaleuca bracteata F. Muell.) and Moreton Bay ash (Corymbia tessellaris (F.Muell.) K.D.Hill & L.A.S.Johnson)] growing in association with Captain Cook tree were also monitored. Sap flow measurements were grouped into eight timeframes per day (early morning, late morning, early afternoon, late afternoon, early night, late night, early dawn and late dawn). Significant interactions in sap flow rate occurred between plant types, timeframes, and months. The magnitude of sap flow rate was Moreton Bay ash (YCC,ACC) and black tea tree(MCC). Maximum sap flow rates tended to occur during early (1-3 pm) to mid-afternoon (4-6 pm) for all age groups of Captain Cook tree and the two native trees. Diurnal sap flow rates were significantly greater than nocturnal, and on a monthly basis sap flow rates were highest over the spring to autumn period (September-May) and lowest during winter (June–August). Significant differences in water consumption also occurred between species and months. Water consumption peak time varied between plant types with most plants peaking in January except for MCC and Moreton Bay ash trees for which peak water consumption occurred in June and July respectively. Water consumption was high across all seasons except winter. The magnitude of water consumption was Moreton Bay ash, black tea tree (YCC,ACC,MCC trees). Moreton Bay ash registered maximal monthly water consumption (4700 L) compared with minimal consumption by MCC trees (55 L). On average, Captain Cook trees used 99% and 72% less water than Moreton Bay ash and black tea trees respectively. The significantly lower water consumption by Captain Cook trees compared with Moreton Bay ash and black tea trees may be offset by high population densities. Results also suggest that knowledge of optimal sap flow timeframes may be advantageous in exploring optimal timing for application of control operations related to management of Captain Cook trees
