  • This is the bibliography personally maintained by Curator Emeritus Zweifel, the only additions being his most recent papers and several committee reports (1975d-1975f) that he had not bothered to list. Few formatting changes were necessary for present purposes, and his bipartite arrangement of research and nonresearch titles is maintained here under the headings ''Scientific Publications'' and ''Abstracts, Reviews, and Popular and Other Nontechnical Publications.'' I add- ed letter designations to papers published in the same year, beginning in the scientific section and continuing in the nonresearch section.
