Sandestin, FL. Longleaf Alliance Report No. 14. Longleaf Alliance Report No. 14 July 2009 Forward: 7th Regional Conference a Great Success by Rhett Johnson The 7th regional conference, like its predecessors, was Longleaf, was included and an entire breakout session was a huge success. The conference was sited in Sandestin, dedicated to discussion of that plan. Florida at the Baytown Resort and Conference Center in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Forest Guild Other topics included the projected impact of climate and attracted about 50 attendees from around the region change on longleaf and other southeastern ecosystems and and nation. As in the past, attendees were from a vast array communities, and longleaf conservation and restoration of backgrounds, with “‘ologists” of all types, foresters, efforts in the Florida Panhandle. The concurrent sessions, landowners, nurserymen, photographers, researchers, including the introduction of the America’s Longleaf plan, managers, etc., included in the mix. They represented included panel discussions or presentations on Education everything from private foundations to federal agencies and Outreach, Assessment and Regeneration, Managing and included state agency personnel, private consultants, for Multiple Uses, Prescribed Fire and Understory researchers and academics, landowners and representatives Restoration Advances, Lessons Learned from Long- from an array of environmental organizations. The poster Term Research, and New Conservation Opportunities for session, always a hit, contained about 60 entries and Longleaf Landowners. Obviously, there was something for displayed some of the best longleaf ecosystem research everyone, no matter what their background or interest. and restoration projects currently going on in the region. We also saw our greatest number of exhibitors to date. A highlight of the meeting was the excellent field trip. We Attendees of our regional conference had opportunities to visited three sites: the outstanding restoration project on the meet and socialize with equipment manufacturers, native 5,000 acre privately owned Nokuse Plantation; a unique seed companies, tree and native plant nurseries, herbicide old-growth longleaf stand immediately adjacent to the companies, nursery suppliers, professional photographers, bayfront beach; and a beautifully restored longleaf forest book publishers, lumber and decorative manufacturers, on Eglin AFB. The presentations on the field trip ranged seed companies, the producers of Discovering Alabama, from underplanting longleaf in slash pine plantations to a forest certification organization and other nonprofit gopher tortoise relocation to red-cockaded management to organizations! understaory restoration to longleaf products to feral hog control to snag management for songbirds and on and Presentations at the plenary and concurrent sessions on.

The diverse superfamily Oestroidea with more than 15 000 known species includes among others blow flies, flesh flies, bot flies and the diverse tachinid flies. Oestroidea exhibit strikingly divergent morphological and ecological traits, but even with a variety of data sources and inferences there is no consensus on the relationships among major Oestroidea lineages. Phylogenomic inferences derived from targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements or UCEs have emerged as a promising method for resolving difficult phylogenetic problems at varying timescales. To reconstruct phylogenetic relationships among families of Oestroidea, we obtained UCE loci exclusively derived from the transcribed portion of the genome, making them suitable for larger and more integrative phylogenomic studies using other genomic and transcriptomic resources. We analysed datasets containing 37–2077 UCE loci from 98 representatives of all oestroid families (except Ulurumyiidae and Mystacinobiidae) and seven calyptrate outgroups, with a total concatenated aligned length between 10 and 550 Mb. About 35% of the sampled taxa consisted of museum specimens (2–92 years old), of which 85% resulted in successful UCE enrichment.

However, the origin of the maternal care in the family has remained unclear due to the lack of phylogenetic hypotheses. Another reproductive mode is found in non-caring species whose females smear their eggs before leaving them. They possess pairs of complex organs on the abdominal venter called Pendergrast’s organ (PO) and spread the secretion of this organ onto each egg with their hind legs, which is supposed to provide a protective function against enemies. Some authors claim that the absence of PO may be associated with the presence of maternal care. No study, however, has tested this hypothesis of a correlated evolution between the two traits. Results: We reconstructed the molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Acanthosomatinae using five genetic markers sequenced from 44 species and one subspecies with and without maternal care.

  • Arachnids (Excluding Acarina and Pseudoscorpionida) of the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma
    OCCASIONAL PAPERS THE MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY NUMBER 67 5 SEPTEMBER 1980 ARACHNIDS (EXCLUDING ACARINA AND PSEUDOSCORPIONIDA) OF THE WICHITA MOUNTAINS WILDLIFE REFUGE, OKLAHOMA JAMES C. COKENDOLPHER AND FRANK D. BRYCE The Wichita Mountains are located in eastern Greer, southern Kiowa, and northwestern Comanche counties in Oklahoma. Since their formation more than 300 million years ago, these rugged mountains have been fragmented and weathered, until today the highest peak (Mount Pinchot) stands only 756 meters above sea level (Tyler, 1977). The mountains are composed predominantly of granite and gabbro. Forests of oak, elm, and walnut border most waterways, while at elevations from 153 to 427 meters prair­ ies are the predominant vegetation type. A more detailed sum­ mary of the climatic and biotic features of the Wichitas has been presented by Blair and Hubbell (1938). A large tract of land in the eastern range of the Wichita Moun­ tains (now northeastern Comanche County) was set aside as the Wichita National Forest by President McKinley during 1901. In 1905, President Theodore Roosevelt created a game preserve on those lands managed by the Forest Service. Since 1935, this pre­ serve has been known as the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. Numerous papers on Oklahoma spiders have been published (Bailey and Chada, 1968; Bailey et al., 1968; Banks et al, 1932; Branson, 1958, 1959, 1966, 1968; Branson and Drew, 1972; Gro- thaus, 1968; Harrel, 1962, 1965; Horner, 1975; Rogers and Horner, 1977), but only a single, comprehensive work (Banks et al., 1932) exists covering all arachnid orders in the state.

  • Sexual Selection Research on Spiders: Progress and Biases
    Biol. Rev. (2005), 80, pp. 363–385. f Cambridge Philosophical Society 363 doi:10.1017/S1464793104006700 Printed in the United Kingdom Sexual selection research on spiders: progress and biases Bernhard A. Huber* Zoological Research Institute and Museum Alexander Koenig, Adenauerallee 160, 53113 Bonn, Germany (Received 7 June 2004; revised 25 November 2004; accepted 29 November 2004) ABSTRACT The renaissance of interest in sexual selection during the last decades has fuelled an extraordinary increase of scientific papers on the subject in spiders. Research has focused both on the process of sexual selection itself, for example on the signals and various modalities involved, and on the patterns, that is the outcome of mate choice and competition depending on certain parameters. Sexual selection has most clearly been demonstrated in cases involving visual and acoustical signals but most spiders are myopic and mute, relying rather on vibrations, chemical and tactile stimuli. This review argues that research has been biased towards modalities that are relatively easily accessible to the human observer. Circumstantial and comparative evidence indicates that sexual selection working via substrate-borne vibrations and tactile as well as chemical stimuli may be common and widespread in spiders. Pattern-oriented research has focused on several phenomena for which spiders offer excellent model objects, like sexual size dimorphism, nuptial feeding, sexual cannibalism, and sperm competition. The accumulating evidence argues for a highly complex set of explanations for seemingly uniform patterns like size dimorphism and sexual cannibalism. Sexual selection appears involved as well as natural selection and mechanisms that are adaptive in other contexts only. Sperm competition has resulted in a plethora of morpho- logical and behavioural adaptations, and simplistic models like those linking reproductive morphology with behaviour and sperm priority patterns in a straightforward way are being replaced by complex models involving an array of parameters.
