Distribution and Relative Abundance of Tennessee Cave Salamanders (Gyrinophilus Palleucus and Gyrinophilus Gulolineatus) with an Emphasis on Tennessee Populations

MILLER AND MATTHEW L. NIEMILLER 1 Department of Biology, Middle Tennessee State University, Murfreesboro, Tennessee 37132, USA 2 Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] 3 Present Address: Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee 37996, USA, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract.—The Tennessee Cave Salamander complex (Gyrinophilus palleucus and G. gulolineatus) consists of three obligate cave-dwelling taxa inhabiting subterranean waters of east and central Tennessee, north Alabama, and northwest Georgia. Although ranges of these taxa are poorly understood, their populations are reportedly small and declining. The IUCN lists G. gulolineatus as "Endangered" and G. p. necturoides as "Vulnerable"; whereas, NatureServe lists G. gulolineatus (G1) and G. p. necturoides (G2G3T1) as Critically Imperiled. To better determine the distribution and relative abundance of extant populations, we searched 113 cave streams in middle and east Tennessee, seven in northwest Georgia, 13 in north Alabama and two in southern Kentucky. We found 1183 salamanders, including 63 G. gulolineatus, 681 G. palleucus, and 439 G. porphyriticus (Spring Salamanders), during 229 surveys of 135 caves. Gyrinophilus palleucus and G. gulolineatus were observed in more caves (30) than G. porphyriticus (17 caves). Members of the complex were found at 52% (12 of 23) of historic caves and at 16% (18 of 110) of non-historic caves. We extended the known distribution of G. -

Historic Bridges Historic Bridges 397 Survey Report for Historic Highway Bridges
6 HISTORIC BRIDGES HISTORIC BRIDGES 397 SURVEY REPORT FOR HISTORIC HIGHWAY BRIDGES HIGHWAY FOR HISTORIC REPORT SURVEY 1901-1920 PERIOD By the turn of the century, bridge design, as a profession, had sufficiently advanced that builders ceased erecting several of the less efficient truss designs such as the Bowstring, Double Intersection Pratt, or Baltimore Petit trusses. Also, the formation of the American Bridge Company in 1901 eliminated many small bridge companies that had been scrambling for recognition through unique truss designs or patented features. Thus, after the turn of the century, builders most frequently erected the Warren truss and Pratt derivatives (Pratt, Parker, Camelback). In addition, builders began to erect concrete arch bridges in Tennessee. During this period, counties chose to build the traditional closed spandrel design that visually evoked the form of the masonry arch. Floods in 1902 and 1903 that destroyed many bridges in the state resulted in counties going into debt to undertake several bridge replacement projects. One of the most concentrated bridge building periods at a county level occurred shortly before World War I as a result of legislation the state passed in 1915 that allowed counties to pass bond issues for road and bridge construction. Consequently, several counties initiated large road construction projects, for example, Anderson County (#87, 01-A0088-03.53) and Unicoi County (#89, 86-A0068- 00.89). This would be the last period that the county governments were the most dominant force in road and bridge construction. This change in leadership occurred due to the creation of the Tennessee State Highway Department in 1915 and the passage of the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1916. -
