  • Host Suitability Studies of Douglas-Fir and White Alder to the Gypsy Moth Abstract Redacted for Privacy Approved: / F /Jeffrey C.Miller
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gladwin Joseph for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented on August 29 1989. Title: Host Suitability Studies of Douglas-fir and White Alder to the Gypsy Moth Abstract Redacted for privacy approved: / f /Jeffrey C.Miller Douglas-fir, Pseudotsuga menziesii and white alder, Alnus rhombifolia, species that are prevalent in the Pacific Northwest, were fed to larvae of the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar L. Gypsy moth larvae from different familial lines (egg masses) from a single geographic population were evaluated on these hosts. The larvae were fed leaves from the two tree species characterized by different foliar levels of either nitrogen, moisture, phenols, or terpenes. Of the two tree species evaluated as hosts of the gypsy moth, white alder appeared to be a highly suitable host, whereas Douglas-fir was a sub-optimal host. Nitrogen and the allelochemics in the foliage affected larval development. On white alder, foliage from trees that had the higher phenolic levels resulted in increased larval survival and higher fecundity. On Douglas-fir, foliage high in nitrogen had lower phenolics and this resulted in increased larval survival and heavier pupae when compared to foliage with low nitrogen and high phenols. Performance of the gypsy moth on these hosts was affected by unknown intrinsic variation among familial lines. Larval survival and duration varied more than other developmental variables among larval familial lines. The variation in larval survival among familial lines was more pronounced in larvae fed Douglas-fir than those fed white alder. A developmental index involving developmental rate and pupal weight differed more for females among familial lines than for males, suggesting a differential sex response.

Human Environment 5.1 Cultural Resources 5.1.1 Native American Overview Prehistory Jeanne M. Welch and R.D. Daugherty prepared a compilation of the prehistoric era on the Olympic Peninsula as part of their background information for a 1988 survey project on Dungeness NWR (Welch and Daugherty 1988). The following information is paraphrased from their report. The five periods of occupation for the region proposed by Eric Bergland (Bergland 1984) cover approximately 12,000 years and include: Early Prehistoric, Middle Prehistoric Early Maritime, Prehistoric, Northwest Coast Pattern, and Historic. On the Olympic Peninsula, the prehistoric people are characterized as small groups of hunters and gatherers who moved around to utilize both terrestrial and maritime resources. This period on the peninsula is represented by the Manis Mastodon site (45CA218) which attests to the hunting of large game animals. It is likely that the onset of the Middle Prehistoric saw an increase in the use of maritime resources such as anadromous fish. By the Early Maritime period, proposed to have begun around 3,000 years before present (BP), the use of maritime resources was well established. It is likely that the cultural manifestations of these later prehistoric periods resembled those of the ethnographic period, but details such as the existence of villages with large, cedar plankhouses are uncertain. During the Prehistoric Northwest Coast Pattern period, which began 1,000 years BP, chipped stone assemblages virtually disappeared while large plankhouse villages became prominent.
