Early successional grasses, ranging from 20 to 70 cm height, and scattered combretaceous shrubs characterized the landscape. T populations consisting of 63 to 95% adult Oedaleus senegalensis were trea at a mean density of 0.5 grasshoppers/m 2 . All materials were applied ultra-low-volume (ULV) rates using TurboThrush S2RTs equipped with Micron, AUSO00 units. -

This search was part of a long-term project (1992-1996) in four national park areas in the eastern United States: Gettysburg National Military Park, Eisenhower National Historic Site, Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site, and Valley Forge National Historical Park. We located 908 bibliographic citations and entered these into the computer bibliographic database called Pro-Cite. Citations in Pro-Cite may be searched by author, article title, journal title, and year. The citation bibliography also may be searched by key terms that index each citation in five categories: 1) taxon, 2) season, 3) habitat, 4) level of information, and 5) protocol. Of the 908 citations, 503 (55%) were studies on birds. Studies of passerines, upland groundbirds, and raptors were cited the most, with 100, 86, and 82 citations, respectively. -

In order to begin to rectify this issue, a nine month study was conducted from mid-March through early December at a 4 ha site at Steel Creek, Buffalo National River, in Newton County, Arkansas.
