  • Taylor's Checkerspot (Euphydryas Editha Taylori) Oviposition Habitat Selection and Larval Hostplant Use in Washington State
    TAYLOR'S CHECKERSPOT (EUPHYDRYAS EDITHA TAYLORI) OVIPOSITION HABITAT SELECTION AND LARVAL HOSTPLANT USE IN WASHINGTON STATE By Daniel Nelson Grosboll A Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Environmental Studies The Evergreen State College June 2011 © 2011 by Daniel Nelson Grosboll. All rights reserved. This Thesis for the Master of Environmental Study Degree by Daniel Nelson Grosboll has been approved for The Evergreen State College by ________________________ Judy Cushing, Ph.D. Member of the Faculty ______________ Date Abstract Taylor's checkerspot (Euphydryas editha taylori) oviposition habitat selection and larval hostplant use in Washington State Taylor’s checkerspot (Euphydryas editha taylori (W.H. Edwards 1888)), a Federal Endangered Species Act candidate species, is found in remnant colonies between extreme southwestern British Columbia and the southern Willamette Valley in Oregon. This butterfly and its habitat have declined precipitously largely due to anthropogenic impacts. However, this butterfly appears to benefit from some land management activities and some populations are dependent on an exotic hostplant. Oviposition sites determine what resources are available for larvae after they hatch. Larval survival and growth on three reported hostplants (Castilleja hispida, Plantago lanceolata, and P. major) were measured in captivity to determine the suitability of hostplant species and to develop captive rearing methods. Larvae successfully developed on C. hispida and P. lanceolata. Parameters of oviposition sites were measured within occupied habitat at four sites in Western Washington. Sampling occurred at two spatial scales with either complete site censuses or stratified systematic sampling on larger sites. Within the sampled or censused areas, oviposition sites were randomly selected for paired oviposition/adjacent non-oviposition microhabitat measurements.

  • Status of the Golden Paintbrush in British Columbia
    Status of the Golden Paintbrush in British Columbia by Michael Ryan and George W. Douglas Wildlife Bulletin No. B-91 March 1999 British Columbia, Canada’s most westerly province, has a bounty of biological diversity. British Columbia’s snowclad peaks, rain-drenched forests, arid grasslands, all sizes of rivers, lakes, and wetlands, and a long and rugged coast provide habitats for more species of living organisms than are found anywhere else in Canada. However, this very diversity means that there is much to be discovered about these organisms — their distribution, abundance, habitat requirements, and interrelationships with their environment. Increasing our knowledge of this biodiversity will help us with the complex task of sustainably managing our land and waters. In 1992, the Provincial Government initiated a co-operative biodiversity research program with funding from the Corporate Resource Inventory Initia- tive, the British Columbia Ministries of Forests (Research Branch), Environment, Lands, and Parks (Wildlife and Habitat Protection Branches), and Tourism and Culture (Royal B.C. Museum); and the Forest Resource Develop- ment Agreement (FRDA II). In 1996, funding from Forest Renewal BC (FRBC) was received for a biodiversity research extension proposal. One goal of the original research program, and more recently the FRBC extension project, is to extend information to scientists, resource managers, and the public through biodiversity publications. These publications are intended to increase awareness and understanding of biodiversity, promote the concepts and importance of conserving biodiversity, and communicate provincial government initiatives related to biodiversity. We hope that they will be used as tools for the conservation of British Columbia’s rich, living legacy.

    Western Washington Prairies A prairie is a wonderful place. There is so much going on in a prairie. We call a place like this an ecosystem. An ecosystem is an area where living creatures such as plants and animals interact with non-living things like soil, water, temperature and air. A prairie ecosystem is made up of grasses, flowers, birds, mammals, and insects but not many trees. As you learn about what lives in a prairie, you can add to your own prairie on the next page. Draw your own prairie plants and animals. We started the picture with a coyote looking for gophers. It’s your prairie, so you decide what lives on it. Have fun and don’t forget to add yourself on the prairie! The contents of this packet are ©Wolf Haven International unless otherwise noted. ©Wolf Haven International Burrowing keeps animals safe from predators and weather. We can’t see burrows from above, so use your imagination to picture how much is going on below ground in a prairie. The drawing on this page is a compilation of a prairie by National Geographic and a coyote by Wolf Haven International. Plants of the Prairie There are a variety of plants that grow on a prairie - grasses, flowers, and shrubs - but not very many trees! All of these plants play an important role in the health of the prairie ecosystem. They produce many roots that not only help keep soil stable, but also add nutrients to the soil as old roots die and decompose. Prairie plants provide a good habitat and hiding place for a lot of wildlife, and even use the sun’s energy to make their own food.

  • Hawkweed Hieracium and Pilosella Species
    Hawkweed Hieracium and Pilosella species Family Asteraceae (daisy) Also known as Tussock hawkweed (Hieracium lepidulum), spotted hawkweed (Hieracium pollichiae), Hieracium argillaceum, Hieracium murorum, Hieracium sabaudum, mouse-eared hawkweed (Pilosella officinarum, syn. Hieracium pilosella), orange hawkweed (Pilosella aurantiaca subsp. carpathicola), king devil (Pilosella piloselloides subsp. praealta, syn. Hieracium praealtum), field hawkweed (Pilosella caespitosa), Pilosella × stoloniflora Where is it originally from? Europe What does it look like? Perennial herbs that form mats of tight, interconnected rosettes with Photo: Carolyn Lewis thick underground root systems, and often with above-ground root systems (stolons) as well. Leaves (25-150 x 6-50 cm) are dull green to dark green above, usually paler (occasionally purplish) below, with those at the base of the plant usually slightly toothed, and with bristly hairs above and star-shaped hairs below. Thin stems (10-75 cm) have milky sap. Lemon or yellow dandelion-like flowers (orange, purple when dry, in H. aurantiacum and H. x stoloniflorum, Oct-May), which occasionally have red stripes on outer face and are followed by fluffy seeds with dirty-white hairs (4-8 mm, Oct-May). Are there any similar species? Hawksbeard (Crepis), hawkbit (Leontodon) and catsear (Hypochoeris) species. Photo: Carolyn Lewis Why is it weedy? Grows and matures quickly, producing many moderately long-lived and widely dispersed seeds. Creeping, mat-forming habit enables it to tolerate damage and grazing, moderate to cold temperatures, low rainfall, poor soils, and little shade. It produces substances in the soil that discourages other species from growing near it (allelopathic). How does it spread? Seed is spread by wind, and in clothing and animal pelts.
