    Arachnids (Excluding Acarina and Pseudoscorpionida) of the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma

    OCCASIONAL PAPERS THE MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY NUMBER 67 5 SEPTEMBER 1980 ARACHNIDS (EXCLUDING ACARINA AND PSEUDOSCORPIONIDA) OF THE WICHITA MOUNTAINS WILDLIFE REFUGE, OKLAHOMA JAMES C. COKENDOLPHER AND FRANK D. BRYCE The Wichita Mountains are located in eastern Greer, southern Kiowa, and northwestern Comanche counties in Oklahoma. Since their formation more than 300 million years ago, these rugged mountains have been fragmented and weathered, until today the highest peak (Mount Pinchot) stands only 756 meters above sea level (Tyler, 1977). The mountains are composed predominantly of granite and gabbro. Forests of oak, elm, and walnut border most waterways, while at elevations from 153 to 427 meters prair­ ies are the predominant vegetation type. A more detailed sum­ mary of the climatic and biotic features of the Wichitas has been presented by Blair and Hubbell (1938). A large tract of land in the eastern range of the Wichita Moun­ tains (now northeastern Comanche County) was set aside as the Wichita National Forest by President McKinley during 1901. In 1905, President Theodore Roosevelt created a game preserve on those lands managed by the Forest Service. Since 1935, this pre­ serve has been known as the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. Numerous papers on Oklahoma spiders have been published (Bailey and Chada, 1968; Bailey et al., 1968; Banks et al, 1932; Branson, 1958, 1959, 1966, 1968; Branson and Drew, 1972; Gro- thaus, 1968; Harrel, 1962, 1965; Horner, 1975; Rogers and Horner, 1977), but only a single, comprehensive work (Banks et al., 1932) exists covering all arachnid orders in the state. Further additions and annotations to the arachnid fauna of Oklahoma can be found 2 OCCASIONAL PAPERS MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY in recent revisionary studies.

Related Species Russian Knapweed Acroptilon repens (L.) DC. Description Spotted knapweed is a biennial to short-lived perennial plant. Seedling cotyledons are ovate, with the first leaves lance-shaped, undivided, and hairless. (Young seedlings can appear grass-like.) Stems grow 1 to 4 feet tall, and are many-branched, with a single flower at the end of each branch. Rosette leaves are indented or divided Old XID Services photo by Richard about half-way to the midrib. Stem leaves are alternate, pinnately divided, Spotted knapweed flower. and get increasingly smaller toward the tip of each branch. Flower heads are urn-shaped, up to 1 inch wide, and composed of pink, purple, or sometimes white disk flowers. A key characteristic of spotted knap- weed is the dark comb-like fringe on the tips of the bracts, found just below the flower petals. These dark-tipped bracts give this plant its “spotted” appearance. Russian knapweed is a creeping perennial plant that is extensively branched, with solitary urn-shaped pink or purple flower heads at the end of each branch. Similar in appearance to spotted knapweed, Russian knapweed can be distinguished by its slightly smaller flower heads, flower head bracts covered in light hairs, with papery tips, and scaly dark brown or black rhizomes, which have a burnt appearance. Family: Asteraceae Spotted Knapweed Leaves and stems of both spotted and Russian knapweeds are covered in fine hairs, giving the plants a grayish cast.
  • Abundance and Community Composition of Arboreal Spiders: the Relative Importance of Habitat Structure

    Abundance and Community Composition of Arboreal Spiders: the Relative Importance of Habitat Structure

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Juraj Halaj for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Entomology presented on May 6, 1996. Title: Abundance and Community Composition of Arboreal Spiders: The Relative Importance of Habitat Structure. Prey Availability and Competition. Abstract approved: Redacted for Privacy _ John D. Lattin, Darrell W. Ross This work examined the importance of structural complexity of habitat, availability of prey, and competition with ants as factors influencing the abundance and community composition of arboreal spiders in western Oregon. In 1993, I compared the spider communities of several host-tree species which have different branch structure. I also assessed the importance of several habitat variables as predictors of spider abundance and diversity on and among individual tree species. The greatest abundance and species richness of spiders per 1-m-long branch tips were found on structurally more complex tree species, including Douglas-fir, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirbel) Franco and noble fir, Abies procera Rehder. Spider densities, species richness and diversity positively correlated with the amount of foliage, branch twigs and prey densities on individual tree species. The amount of branch twigs alone explained almost 70% of the variation in the total spider abundance across five tree species. In 1994, I experimentally tested the importance of needle density and branching complexity of Douglas-fir branches on the abundance and community structure of spiders and their potential prey organisms. This was accomplished by either removing needles, by thinning branches or by tying branches. Tying branches resulted in a significant increase in the abundance of spiders and their prey. Densities of spiders and their prey were reduced by removal of needles and thinning.

Abstract Crematogaster ashmeadi is the dominant arboreal ant occurring on longleaf pines in the Apalachi- cola National Forest of northern Florida. Newly-mated C. ashmeadi queens preferentially founded colonies in abandoned beetle galleries in the dead branches of longleaf pine saplings. There was a positive association between the frequency of queens in trees, several size-related tree character- istics and the amount of insect boring activity in dead branches. The dispersion of newly-mated queens among trees was clumped, suggesting that these queens selected founding sites according to their suitability for colony founding, and that these favorable characteristics were clumped among saplings. The occurrence of founding nests was not related to the prior presence of other ants on the tree. Survival of incipient colonies during the first year was low (7.6%), and their dispersion was not different from random. One possible explanation for this change in dispersion over the year is aggressive interference competition between incipient colonies, although random mortality cannot be discounted. Overall, the distribution of young C.

    Biodiversity and Conservation of Iberian Spiders: Past, Present and Future

    Boletín Sociedad Entomológica Aragonesa, n1 42 (2008) : 487–492. Jornadas sobre Biodiversidad valenciana y Arácnidos. VIII Jorndas G.I.A. 25-28 octubre 2007. Valencia. Biodiversity and conservation of Iberian spiders: past, present and future Pedro Cardoso Azorean Biodiversity Group – CITA-A, Universidade dos Açores, Angra do Heroísmo, Portugal. Correspondence: Universidade dos Açores, Departamento de Ciências Agrárias, Terra-Chã, 9701-851 Angra do Heroísmo, Portugal. – [email protected] Abstract: The knowledge of Iberian spider species and their distributions has undergone several development stages. The ac- cumulation of knowledge, reinforced by the emergence on the last years of several associations devoted to the study of arach- nids, allowed us to currently register more than 1300 species in the Iberian Peninsula. In a project started by Eduardo Morano and now with my cooperation, the new Iberian spider catalogue is being developed and is partly available online. However, even if all existing data are compiled, they still present two main problems. Firstly, they are incomplete for the vast majority of the species. Secondly, the heterogeneity of the studies that recorded the data does not allow direct or reliable comparisons between areas. Both the reasonable completeness of the data and its comparability are essential for, among oth- ers, biogeography and conservation studies. These two targets can only be guaranteed by the use of optimized and standar- dized sampling protocols. Based on intensive fieldwork made in different areas and habitats in Portugal, a flexible sampling pro- tocol has been developed which, will allow different teams with multiple objectives to compare results among each other, a pro- cedure not possible until the present.

Scop.; Parks Affected: All Breea arvensis (L.) Lessing Family: Asteraceae (Sunflower) Other Names: field thistle, Californian thistle USDA Code: CIAR4 Keys to Identification: Legal Status: Colorado Noxious List B (top ten worst). • Purple flowers form in clusters of 1-5 per branch. Identification • The floral bracts of Canada Growth form: Perennial forb. thistle are spineless. Flower: Flower heads are white to purple and borne in clusters • Small heads, vanilla scent of 1-5 per branch, with a strong vanilla scent. Heads are only about 1cm in diameter. Seeds/Fruit: One-seeded fruits (achenes) are straw or light brown in color, straight or slightly curved (Moore 1975). Leaves: Leaves are spiny, alternate, oblong or lance-shaped, with the base leaves stalkless and clasping, or extended down along the stem. Stems: Mature plants range from 2-4 feet in height. Roots: Canada thistle has two types of roots, horizontal and vertical. The horizontal roots produce numerous shoots, while vertical roots store water and nutrients in their many small branches. Seedling: Early spring growth appears as rosettes with spiny- tipped, wavy leaves. Other: The floral bracts of Canada thistle are spineless. Similar Species Exotics: Bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare); flower bracts are somewhat tapered and covered with spines. Scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium); stems appear the have wings, floral bracts are covered with spines. Plumeless thistle (Carduus acanthoides); floral bracts are covered with sharp spines. Musk thistle (Carduus nutans); floral bracts are broad with spiny tips.
  • Edge Effect on Carabid Assemblages Along Forest-Grass Transects

    Edge Effect on Carabid Assemblages Along Forest-Grass Transects

    Web Ecology 2: 7–13. Edge effect on carabid assemblages along forest-grass transects T. Magura, B. Tóthmérész and T. Molnár Magura, T., Tóthmérész, B. and Molnár, T. 2001. Edge effect on carabid assemblages along forest-grass transects. – Web Ecol. 2: 7–13. During 1997 and 1998, we have tested the edge-effect for carabids along oak-hornbeam forest-grass transects using pitfall traps in Hungary. Our hypothesis was that the diver- sity of carabids will be higher in the forest edge than in the forest interior. We also focused on the characteristic species of the habitats along the transects and the relation- ships between their distribution and the biotic and abiotic factors. Our results proved that there was a significant edge effect on the studied carabid com- munities: the Shannon diversity increased significantly along the transects from the forest towards the grass. The diversity of the carabids were significantly higher in the forest edge and in the grass than in the forest interior. The carabids of the forest, the forest edge and the grass are separated from each other by principal coordinates analysis and by indicator species analysis (IndVal), suggesting that each of the three habitats has a distinct species assemblages. There were 5 distinctive groups of carabids: 1) habitat generalists, 2) forest generalists, 3) species of the open area, 4) forest edge species, and 5) forest specialists. It was demonstrated by multiple regression analyses, that the relative air moisture, temperature of the ground, the cover of leaf litter, herbs, shrubs and cano- py cover, abundance of the carabids’ preys are the most important factors determining the diversity and spatial pattern of carabids along the studied transects.
