Totaninae (tot-a-ni'ne), n.nl. [NL., < Tetanus 
+ -i.j A subfamily of Scolopacidse, corre- 
sponding to the genus Totanus in a broad sense, 
but containing a number of other modern gen- 
era ; the tattlers. They are found all over the world, iu 
great abundance of individuals and numerous species. The 
chief distinction from the true snipes or Scolapaeina lies In 
the bill, which is relatively shorter, harder, and less sensi- 
tive, and usually slenderer, with a more ample rictus. The 
legs are longer, and usually denuded above the sulfrago, 
so that the lower end of the tibia is bare of feathers. The 
feet are more or less semipalmate. They are noisy, rest- 
less birds, inhabiting marshes, swamps, and wet wood- 
land and meadows. The yellowshanks, willet, and soli- 
tary ami spotted sandpipers of the United states are good 
examples. One of the most wide-spread and notable is the 
wandering tattler, Ileterogceliu incanu* or brempes. Also 
called Totanete, as a group ranking lower than a subfamily, 
and formally contrasted with Tringex. See Totanus. and

birds of the family Scolopacidse, including some 
of the best-known sandpipers, tattlers, telltales, 
gambets, or horsemen, as the redshank, green- 
shank, yellowshank, and wood-sandpiper. Sev- 
eral are common British species: the greenshank, or green 
sandpiper, 7*. ochropitu; the wood*sandpiper, T. ylareola; 
the redshank, T. calidrig; the spotted redshank, T.ftig- 
cue. In North America the best-known are the greater and 
lesser yellowshanks, T. tnelanoleiunts and T. flaripeg. The 
genus formerly contained all the Totanina (which see).

totara (to-ta'ra), . [Maori.] A coniferous

with a diameter of from 4 to 6 feet. The wood is of a red- 
dish color, close, straight, tine, and even in grain, moderate- 
ly hard and strong. It is used both for veneers, furniture, 
and cabinet-work, and for building, and is invaluable for 
piles of marine wharves, bridges, etc., being durable in the 
ground or under water, and resisting a long time the at- 
tacks of the teredo. It was used by the natives to make 
their smaller canoes, and the bark served for roofing. Also

assumed as the token or emblem of a clan or 
family, and a representation of which served 
as a cognizance for each member of it; hence, 
a more or less similar observance and usage 
among other uncivilized peoples. See totemism. 
The representation of the totem Dome by an individual 
was often painted or figured in some way upon the skin 
itself, and upon his different garments, utensils, etc. The 
totem was also, in a sense, an idol or the embodied form of 
a deity or demon, or at least had a religious significance. 
[The word is often used attributively, as in totem clan, 
totem kin, totem post, etc. ] 
And they painted on the grave-posts . . .

Each the symbol of his household ;

It Is not only the clans and the sexes that have totems; 
individuals also have their own special totem*. L e., classes 
of objects (generally species of animals) which they re- 
gard as related to themselves by those ties of mutual re- 
spect and protection which are characteristic of totem ism. 
This relationship, however, in the case of the individual 
totipalmation 
i..f.-w. begins and ends with the individual man, and l> 
not, like tin- clan lalrm, tranmnitted !>. inheritance. . . .
