The new species, originally designated Tylosaurus n. sp., co-occurred with T. nepaeohcus and exhibits a number of primitive characters that place it in a basal position in the mosasaur phylogeny. Among the key differences separating this species from other tylosaurines are a shortened, more rounded pre-dental process of the premaxilla, a distinctive quadrate lacking an infrastapedial process, and a parietal foramen located adjacent to the frontal-parietal suture.

  • Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area
    CHEYENNE BOTTOMS WILDLIFE AREA 2010-2014 MANAGEMENT PLAN 1 INTRODUCTION Cheyenne Bottoms is a natural land sink located in Barton County, Kansas (Fig. 1). The entire basin is approximately 41,000 acres in size. A detailed description of the soils and geology can be found in Dodge et al. (1981) and Vogler et al. (1987). About 20,000 acres of this basin is deeded to the state and managed by the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) as Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area (CHBW). An additional 7,000 acres is owned and managed by The Nature Conservancy. The Bottoms is home to numerous species of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, invertebrates and plants. Habitats found there include farm land, creek beds, shelter belts and marsh. Of the 417 species of birds documented in Kansas, a minimum of 328 have been observed at the Bottoms. Among these are threatened or endangered species such as the piping plover, least tern, whooping crane, bald eagle and peregrine falcon. The International Shorebird Survey (Manomet Bird Observatory) estimates that approximately 45% of North America's shorebird population stops at Cheyenne Bottoms when migrating north in spring. Waterfowl numbers can approach several hundred thousand. Cheyenne Bottoms, like all wetlands, has direct economic value to society. Visitors to Cheyenne Bottoms make significant contributions to the economic health of surrounding communities, Barton County, and the State of Kansas. According to Sicilian and Coleman (1987) total economic impact of Cheyenne Bottoms on the State's economy is over $2.8 million annually. The impact on Barton County alone is in excess of $1.8 million.

  • A New High-Latitude Tylosaurus (Squamata, Mosasauridae) from Canada with Unique
    A new high-latitude Tylosaurus (Squamata, Mosasauridae) from Canada with unique dentition A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Department of Biological Sciences of the College of Arts and Sciences by Samuel T. Garvey B.S. University of Cincinnati B.S. Indiana University March 2020 Committee Chair: B. C. Jayne, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Mosasaurs were large aquatic lizards, typically 5 m or more in length, that lived during the Late Cretaceous (ca. 100–66 Ma). Of the six subfamilies and more than 70 species recognized today, most were hydropedal (flipper-bearing). Mosasaurs were cosmopolitan apex predators, and their remains occur on every continent, including Antarctica. In North America, mosasaurs flourished in the Western Interior Seaway, an inland sea that covered a large swath of the continent between the Gulf of Mexico and the Arctic Ocean during much of the Late Cretaceous. The challenges of paleontological fieldwork in high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere have biased mosasaur collections such that most mosasaur fossils are found within 0°–60°N paleolatitude, and in North America plioplatecarpine mosasaurs are the only mosasaurs yet confirmed to have existed in paleolatitudes higher than 60°N. However, this does not mean mosasaur fossils are necessarily lacking at such latitudes. Herein, I report on the northernmost occurrence of a tylosaurine mosasaur from near Grande Prairie in Alberta, Canada (ca. 86.6–79.6 Ma). Recovered from about 62°N paleolatitude, this material (TMP 2014.011.0001) is assignable to the subfamily Tylosaurinae by exhibiting a cylindrical rostrum, broadly parallel-sided premaxillo-maxillary sutures, and overall homodonty.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Master's Theses by an authorized administrator of FHSU Scholars Repository. PREFACE This thesis is written in the style of the Journal of Biological Conservation. Keywords: national parks, birds, mammals, island biogeography, conservation biology i ABSTRACT The North American landscape is becoming increasingly fragmented, resulting in habitat patches with decreased area and increased isolation. Often, these patches exist as protected areas, such as national parks. The Theory of Island Biogeography is frequently used as a model for these patches, where each park serves as an ‘island’ surrounded by a ‘sea’ of human-altered habitats. As such, species richness and extinctions in a park might be explained by its area. For this study, I used regression models to examine the relationship between richness and area, as well as extinctions and area, for mammals and birds in national parks. Mammal models were also constructed without rodents. Due to their relatively small size, rodents have a low detectability, and are often under surveyed.

CHAPTER I THE MILITARY POST AS A FACTOR IN THE FRONTIER DEFENSE OF KANSAS, 1865-1869 The name "fort" is perhaps~ misnomer when applied to the military poets of the western frontier during the six- ties. No huge, grim structure of defense, which usually is associated with the name fort, was ever erected on the western border. Nor did the western fort usually possess a stookade or blookhouse for defensive purposes. Officers• quarters, soldiers' barracks, stables, military storehouses and headquarters buildings, grouped around a trim parade ground. constituted the frontier fort. While no doubt a disappointment to many of its critics the military post of the Middle West admirably fulfilled the purposes for which it was constructed, 1· !•, the keeping open of lines of travel and oommunioation and the protection of outlying settlements. Forte were located without any definite prearranged plan.
