Summary:

"The O. S. U. Naturalist, Vol. 1, No. 1, November, 1900" is a scientific publication edited by John H. Schaffner and published by the Biological Club of the Ohio State University. This journal, created in the early 20th century, is focused on the natural history of Ohio, showcasing studies and findings from various fields such as botany, geology, archaeology, and zoology. It aims to provide a platform for research that may not have been published elsewhere and targets educators and amateur scientists in the state. The inaugural issue contains several articles detailing scientific observations and research in Ohio. Among the highlighted studies are W. A. Kellerman's documentation of the local plant Ampelopsis cordata, a description of archaeological findings at the Baum Prehistoric Village site by W. C. Mills, and a list of Hemiptera species collected in Bellaire by Herbert Osborn. Additional articles cover botanical discoveries, infection experiments related to sorghum smut, and updates regarding dragonfly species in the state. This volume not only serves as a repository of Ohio's natural history but also aims to educate and foster collaboration among scientists and amateurs alike.
