Populations of C. nemoralis from the Channel Islands show strong between-island variation in their shell colour and banding polymorphism, despite the general similarity of the habitats sampled on each island. Morph-frequency distributions do not, in general, match those found in similar open habitats in England and Wales in regions where visual selection for crypsis is effective. Some changes have occurred over the last 30 years, reflecting changing patterns of land-use. A detailed comparison is made with C. nemoralis populations on the Isles of Scilly, where inter-island differences are much less marked, but where morph-frequency distributions are even more unlike those found in similar habitats on the British mainland. These patterns can be interpreted in terms of rising Holocene sea-levels: the Scillies were probably colonized once, when a single larger island existed, while many of the Channel Islands have a history of separate isolations from differing parts of the French mainland. Population histories have an effect on present genetic make-up, even for loci on which selection can and does operate. 12 pp., fig. 4, gr. 8.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 2004 Routledge hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: Brian Houghton Hodgson was a nineteenth-century administrator and scholar who lived in Nepal, where he was the British Resident from 1820 until 1843. After this he worked as an independent scholar in Darjeeling until 1858. During his time in the Himalayas Hodgson, with extraordinary dedication, laid the foundations for the study of the eastern Himalayan region, writing about many aspects of life and culture. He was among the first westerners to take an interest in Buddhism, both writing about it and collecting manuscripts. He is perhaps best known for his work as an ornithologist and zoologist, writing around 130 papers and commissioning from Nepalese artists a unique series of drawings of birds and mammals. He also wrote about and recorded details of the buildings and architecture of the Kathmandu valley and wrote a series of ethnographic and linguistic papers on Nepal and the Himalayan region. Hodgson donated his collection of writings, specimens and drawings to libraries and museums in Europe, much of which still needs detailed examination. This book critically examines Hodgson's life and achievement, within the context of his contribution to scholarship. It consists of contributions from leading historians of Nepal and South Asia and from specialists in Buddhist studies, art history, linguistics, zoology and ethnography. Many of the drawings photographed for this book have not previously been published. Contents: Foreword by Thomas R.
