Ephydra Hians) Say at Mono Lake, California (USA) in Relation to Physical Habitat
Hydrobiologia 197: 193-205, 1990. F. A. Comln and T. G. Northcote (eds), Saline Lakes. 193 © 1990 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in Belgium. Distribution and abundance of the alkali fly (Ephydra hians) Say at Mono Lake, California (USA) in relation to physical habitat David B. Herbst Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory, University of California, Star Route 1, Box 198, Mammoth Lakes, CA 93546, USA Key words: Ephydra, life cycle, development, distribution, Mono Lake, substrate Abstract The distribution and abundance of larval, pupal, and adult stages of the alkali fly Ephydra hians Say were examined in relation to location, benthic substrate type, and shoreline features at Mono Lake. Generation time was calculated as a degree-day model for development time at different temperatures, and compared to the thermal environment of the lake at different depths. Larvae and pupae have a contagious distribution and occur in greatest abundance in benthic habitats containing tufa (a porous limestone deposit), and in least abundance on sand or sand/mud substrates. Numbers increase with increasing area of tufa present in a sample, but not on other rocky substrates (alluvial gravel/cobble or cemented sand). Standing stock densities are greatest at locations around the lake containing a mixture of tufa deposits, detrital mud sediments, and submerged vegetation. Shoreline adult abundance is also greatest in areas adjacent to tufa. The shore fly (ephydrid) community varies in composition among different shoreline habitats and shows a zonation with distance from shore. The duration of pupation (from pupa formation to adult eclosion) becomes shorter as temperature increases. The temperature dependence of pupa development time is not linear and results in prolonged time requirements to complete development at temperatures below 20 ° C. -

Chapter 3K. Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures - Cultural Resources
Chapter 3K. Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures - Cultural Resources This chapter addresses potential impacts of the alternatives on cultural resources in Mono Basin and Upper Owens River basin. Impacts are generally in the realm of potential disturbance to cultural resource sites from channel erosion, recreational activity, and restoration activities along the diverted streams and Owens River. Few effects would result from establishing higher or lower lake levels because no sites are expected to be present on the relicted lands. As described below, some diminishment in the use of the lake's food resources by Native Americans may have occurred during the diversion period, but choice of an alternative would little affect future resource utilization as long as resources of Native American importance are avoided during restoration activities. SOURCES OF INFORMATION Background Research A record search was conducted at the Eastern Information Center of the California Archaeological Inventory, University of California, Riverside, to determine the types and locations of known cultural resources within the areas of concern. Primary and secondary archeological, ethnographic, and historical sources were consulted for information pertaining to the areas of concern, including: # the National Register of Historic Places, # California Historical Landmarks, and # California Inventory of Historical Resources. Literature considered in this process is cited in the following discussions. Information on the Mono Lake Paiute is presented by Davis (1959, 1961, 1965, 1962, 1963, 1964), Curtis (1926), Kroeber (1925), and Merriam (1955, 1966:Part 1). Primary accounts of the Owens Valley Paiute are contained in Steward (1929, 1933, 1934, 1936, 1938a, 1938b). Additional information can be found in Davis (1961), Driver (1937), Kroeber (1925, 1939, 1959), and Merriam (1955). -

Part one, entitled "Personal Preparation for Communication with People," provides learning activities and classroom procedures on personal appearance, verbal communication, personal responsibility- -self discipline, and use of equipment. Part two was designed to provide the student with on-the-job experiences with his parents or other responsibile adults at their place of employment. Pre-planning activities and student and parent experience evaluation forms are presented. Part three provides 23 career development activities. The job family, goals of the project, related career development concepts, pre-planning activities, and suggested student activities are presented for each. Another brief section provides alternative student research/resource projects and reviews the roles of teacher, student, and resource persons. -

Herbst1 ABSTRACf.-Four species of the genus Ephydra are commonly found in saline waters within the hydrologic Great Basin: E. hians, E. gracilis, E. packardi, and E. auripes. Though none of these brine flies is endemic (distributions also occur outside the Great Basin), they all inhabit distinctive habitat types and form the characteristic benthic insect fauna ofinland saline-water habitats. The affinities ofeach species for different salinity levels and chemical compositions, and ephemeral to perennial habitats, appear to form the basis for biogeographic distribution patterns. -
Kutsavi, a Great Basin Indian Food
KUTSAVI, A GREAT BASIN INDIAN FOOD Robert F. Heizer When one becomes preoccupied with a topic or an area he ti apt to accumulate formidable piles of notee and references on cultural traits which are intriguing, but not highly significent. Often these accumu- lations evade utilization In the student's published works. The present note ts a by-product of a long and continuing interest in the archaeology and ethnology of the Great Basin, and because these data will probably never, to me have any particular significance, I offer them here in the hope that some other student may benefit from my literary gleanings. One of the most Interesting foods of tho Indians of the Intermon- tane-Platepu was kuteavi, the larva of a small fly (Ephydra hians Say) which was to be found from northern Neveda to Mono Lake on the eastern border of Celifornia. Native exploitation of this oconomic resource has been discusod by 0. Esslg (1) and J, Steward.(2) The present note will show the essential distribution of the use of Ephydra larvae ae. food. Among the earliest references to kutsavi collecttng at Mono Lake is that of Zenas Leonard in 1833. He BesY:k3) The water in ¾ihs lelke becomes stagnant and very disagreeable -- its surfece being covered with a green substence, similar to a. stagnant frog pond. In warm weether there is a. fly, about the size and similar to a grain of wheat, on this lake, in great num- bers. ... IWhen the wind rolls the waters onto the shore, these flies are left on the beech -- the female Indiens then carefully gether them into beekets made of willow .branches, and lay them exposed to the sun until they become perfectly dry, when theyg are laid away for winter provender. -

Ecological Physiology of the Larvel Brine Fly Ephydra
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF David Bruce Herbst for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology presented on May 22, 1980 Title: Ecological Physiology of the Larval Brine Fly Ephydra (Hydropyrus) hians, an Alkaline-Salt Lake Inhabiting Ephydrid (Diptera). Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: (I, Anrr. Frank P. Conte Dipterans of the family Ephydridae (shore and brine flies) are well known for their ability to tolerate and thrive in a wide variety of physically harsh circumstances. The immature stages of one such species of this family, Ephydra hians, are characteristically limited in distribution as benthic inhabitants of highly alkaline salt lakes in the arid regions of western North America. In order to examine the nature of this habitat specificity, the intraspecific comparative physiologyof osmotic and ionic regulation, energy metabolism and survival was examined in two populations of brine fly larvae which differ inthe historical-environmental stability of their native habitats. The population at Mono Lake, California, has, until recent times, been evolving under relatively stable conditions of water chemistryand habitat availablility (i.e., little fluctuation in salinity or littoral benthic habitat due to stable lake level). Since 1940 however, the lake level has been steadily dropping and the dissolved salt content increasing due to diversion of tributary water. The population at Abert Lake, Oregon, has by contrast been subject to severeshort-term changes in salinity and habitat availability throughout its history.Larvae were exposed to both alkaline andnon-alkaline brines. While both populations displayed hyposmotic regulation in alkalinesalt media, Mono Lake larvae consistently showed more effective maintenanceof homeostasis. -
