  • Algonquin Park: the Human Impact
    Algonquin Park is a very special place to many people. Although it is one of the oldest parks in Canada, in the heart of the Canadian Shield, and within easy driving distance of several million people, it still retains a wilderness character. Within its boundaries wolves still hunt moose and deer, beaver maintain dams and neotropical warblers raise their young deep in its pine, spruce and fir woodlands. In addition, the Park is the source of employment for many people who live nearby, both as a source of jobs within the Park, and as a result of the forest management that continues to provide wood for houses and other products made from trees.

Operations and Maintenance Policies (Section 3.1) • Herbicide use is restricted and must be in compliance with provincial regulations (p. 12) • Herbicide use must be kept to a minimum, using suggested chemicals and avoiding areas where park visitors and staff may contact it (p. 12) • Unless it is unsafe to do so, windthrown and dead standing trees should be left in place as they serve important ecological functions. Refer to Appendix A for a decision guide (p. 13) • When woody material must be removed from the site, it will be used to create brush piles for restoration, chipped for trail maintenance, or salvaged for firewood (p. 13) • Native insect pest outbreaks and diseases are natural processes and should not be controlled unless significant values within or adjacent to the park are threatened or the pest is a recent invader to Ontario.

  • New Canadian Records of Asilidae (Diptera) from an Endangered Ontario Ecosystem
    1999 THE GREAT LAKES ENTOMOLOGIST 257 NEW CANADIAN RECORDS OF ASILIDAE (DIPTERA) FROM AN ENDANGERED ONTARIO ECOSYSTEM Jeffrey H. Skevington 1,2 ABSTRACT The Asilidae (Diptera) of Bosanquet (northern Lambton County, Ontario) are surveyed. Forty-one species are recorded. Twelve species are .published for the first time from Canada: Atomosia puella, Cerotainia albipilosa, Cero­ tainia macrocera, Holcocephala calva, Holopogon (HolopogonJ oriens, Laphria canis, Laphria divisor, Laphria grossa, Lasiopogon opaculus, Machimus notatus, Machimus sadyates, and Neomochtherus auricomus. These species plus the following four are new to Ontario: Laphystia jlavipes, Lasiopogon tetragrammus, Machimus novaescotiae, and Proctacanthella ca­ copiloga. Lambton County, on the southeastern shore of Lake Huron in Ontario, is a unique part of the Great Lakes Region. The coastal dunes and oak savan­ nas of this large (91 k.m long by 66 km wide; 299,645 ha) county support a wealth of plants and animals found nowhere else in Ontario (Bakowsky 1990, Lindsay 1982, Schweitzer 1984, Schweitzer 1993). This area is a col­ lage of unusual and threatened habitats that include coastal sand dunes with associated cedar savanna and wet meadows, the largest remaining frag­ ments ofoak savanna in eastern Canada, and lush floodplain forests contain­ ing plants characteristic of the Carolinian Life Zone. As a result, the insect fauna is diverse and unusual. To date, little has been published summarizing the insect diversity of Lambton County. Species lists can be patched together from general publica­ tions and revisions, but do not provide thorough base-line information on the biodiversity of the area. Skevington and Carmichael (1997) summarized the Odonata fauna of the area, and there is some information on Lepidoptera (e.g.

  • Port Franks Forested Dunes
    Port Franks Forested Dunes Important Bird Area Conservation Action Plan Prepared for the Port Franks Forested Dunes IBA Stakeholders By William G. Wilson and Edward D. Cheskey May 2001 Executive Summary Port Franks Forested Dunes Important Bird Area is a continuous stretch of unique forest habitat along the southern coast of Lake Huron, from Kettle Point to Grand Bend. It is an exceptional area biologically, with globally rare and threatened habitats. Two species of nationally rare and threatened birds, Hooded Warbler and Acadian Flycatcher, breed in the IBA along with an amazing diversity of woodland species, many of which are regionally and provincially significant. The IBA contains a mix of public and private lands, with a considerable amount of forest formally protected in Pinery Provincial Park, the Lambton County Heritage Forest, and a number of smaller tracts. Two large tracts of land under the jurisdiction of the Kettle- Stoney Point First Nations are also part of the continuous forest habitat. Threats to the IBA include: • Housing development • Recreational overuse • Dune erosion • Over-browsing from deer • Diversion of water and canalization The Action Plan component of this conservation plan includes the following vision and goals. Objectives and strategies supporting the goals are presented in Chapter 11. Vision The Port Franks Forested Dunes IBA will promote, conserve and enhance continuous natural forest cover from Kettle Point to Grand Bend to support viable populations of forest birds and habitat for migrant birds. Goals 1. To maintain and enhance breeding populations of IBA forest species of concern, specifically, Hooded Warbler, Acadian Flycatcher, Cerulean Warbler, Red- shouldered Hawk, Red-headed Woodpecker, and Tufted Titmouse.
