  • Territory, Breeding Density, and Fall Departure in Cassin's Finch
    TERRITORY, BREEDING DENSITY, AND FALL DEPARTURE IN CASSIN'S FINCH FRED B. S^•rSON WHETHERterritory during the breeding seasonacts as a mechanism to regulate breeding density or total numbers within a population of birds has aroused much interest (Hinde 1956, Wynne-Edwards 1962, Lack 1966, Brown 1969, Klomp 1972, Von Haartman 1972, Watson 1973), but controversyremains. Kluyver (1970), after studying Great Tit (Parus major) populationson the Dutch Island of Vlieland in the North Sea, indicatedthat tit numbersare regulatedin early autumn after breed- ing. In the presentinvestigation, different populationsof Cassin'sFinch (Carpodacuscassinii) were studiedduring the breedingseason and early autumn of 3 years, to determinefactors influencing breeding density and population numbers. I selectedCassin's Finch to study becauselittle is known of its breed- ing biology or postbreedingbehavior. Published descriptionsof repro- ductive activities are few, most often by residentnaturalists or those engagedin faunistic surveys (Ridgway 1877, Henshaw 1879, Grinnell 1908, Taylor 1912, Dawson 1923, Bailey 1928, Grinnell and Miller 1944• Jones and Baylot 1969), presumablybecause accessibility to montane breeding populationsis limited. Fall studies are restricted to noting numbersseen or distributionallists (Orr 1968). The breedingrange for Cassin'sFinch extendsfrom southernBritish Columbia,Alberta, and Manitoba into northernArizona and Baja Cali- fornia (Bailey and NeJdtach 1965). These authors suggestedthat Cas- sin's Finch, like the crossbill(Loxia spp.), breed whereveran abundance of food exists within their range, with specificlocations changing from year to year. For breeding, Cassin'sFinch prefers a mixed forest habitat of the alpine meadow zone generally above 1500 m (Salt 1952). Most nests are located on ends of upper branchesin tall pines (Orr 1968), and pairs may nest in coloniesor singly (Lack 1968).

  • Black Rosy-Finch Leucosticte Atrata
    Wyoming Species Account Black Rosy-Finch Leucosticte atrata REGULATORY STATUS USFWS: Migratory Bird USFS R2: No special status USFS R4: No special status Wyoming BLM: No special status State of Wyoming: Protected Bird CONSERVATION RANKS USFWS: Bird of Conservation Concern WGFD: NSSU (U), Tier II WYNDD: G4, S1B/S2N Wyoming Contribution: VERY HIGH IUCN: Least Concern PIF Continental Concern Score: 16 STATUS AND RANK COMMENTS Black Rosy-Finch (Leucosticte atrata) has been assigned different S-ranks by the Wyoming Natural Diversity Database for the breeding and non-breeding seasons. This is because the species’ habitat is not as restrictive during the non-breeding season, which makes the species less intrinsically vulnerable. NATURAL HISTORY Taxonomy: There are no recognized subspecies of Black Rosy-Finch. In 1983, the three American rosy-finch species: Black Rosy-Finch, Brown-capped Rosy-Finch (L. australis), and Grey-crowned Rosy- Finch (L. tephrocotis), were combined with Asian Rosy-Finch (L. arctoa) into one species. In 1993, the American Ornithologist Union (AOU) reinstated original species status designations due to a lack of evidence supporting the merge 1. Recent genetic evidence suggests that the three North American Rosy-Finches may only constitute one species 2. However, the most recent AOU ruling rejected merging the three American rosy-finches into one species 3. Description: Identification of Black Rosy-Finch is possible in the field. The Black Rosy-Finch is approximately 16 cm in length, similar in size and overall shape to large sparrows, but stockier. The species has a mid-sized conical bill, and a relatively short, notched tail.

  • Using Species Distribution Models to Quantify Climate
    USING SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELS TO QUANTIFY CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS ON THE ROSY-FINCH SUPERSPECIES: AN ALPINE OBLIGATE by Edward C.

Conrad has been approved by the following supervisory committee members: Simon C. Brewer_________________ , Chair 04/16/15 Date Approved Russell E. Norvell________________ , Member 04/16/15 Date Approved Philip E. Dennison_______________ , Member 04/16/15 Date Approved and by __________________ Andrea R. Brunelle___________________ , Chair of the Department of ___________________________ Geography and by David B. Kieda, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT Anthropogenic climate change is forcing plants and animals to respond by shifting their distributions poleward or upward in elevation. An organism’s ability to track climate change is constrained if its habitat cannot shift and is projected to decrease in geographic extent. Geographic distributions were predicted for the Rosy-Finch superspecies (Leucosticte atrata, Leucosticte australis, Leucosticte tephrocotis) for climate change scenarios using correlative species distribution models (SDM). Multiple sources of uncertainty were quantified including choice of SDM, validation statistic, emissions scenario and general circulation model (GCM). Species distribution models are traditionally validated using a threshold-independent statistic called the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic. However, during k-fold cross-validation, this statistic becomes overinflated due to spatial sorting bias existing between the presence and background points.

  • Comments on Draft List of Species of Conservation Concern
    February 1, 2016 Joan Friedlander Forest Plan Revision Team Pacific Southwest Region USDA Forest Service Vallejo, CA Re: Comments on draft list of Species of Conservation Concern Dear Joan: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the draft lists of species of conservation concern (SCC) for the Inyo (INF), Sequoia (SQF), and Sierra (SNF) national forests. We appreciate the inclusion on these draft lists of two species – sage grouse and Mt. Whitney draba (Draba sharsmithii)1 – that had been omitted from the draft lists presented in July 2015. We are, however, disappointed to see that very little of the scientific information we provided in August 2015 was incorporated into this draft list and documentation and that so few changes have been made to the draft SCC lists. In the comments below, we first raise general concerns about the approach and documentation for the determination of SCC. Second we offer comments related to the determinations for individual species. Attachment A contains additional information in support of the sections below. 1 We note that this draba was originally included on that Inyo National Forest list and has now been appropriately added to the Sierra National Forest list. SFL et al. comments on draft SCC list (2-1-16) 1 I. General Concerns about SCC Determinations A. Use of Best Available Science Information Not Documented It is very concerning that there has been little to no attempt to connect the rationale for the proposed SCC designations to the sources. Although the spreadsheets provide lists of sources used, those sources are extremely scant and therefore insufficient to meet the BASI standard.

Samson Assistant Leader Missouri Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service 112 Stephens Hall, University of Missouri Columbia, MO 65211 ABSTRACT Montane meadows comprise about 3.2 million ha under the jurisdiction of the U. S. Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and state and private ownership. Relatively few species of birds breed on montane meadows, but meadows serve as important foraging,areas for avian communities associated with nearby riparian or forest habitats. Recommendations for management of montane meadows include: (1) care should be exercised in grazing or other land-use prescriptions such as fire, considering their apparent accelerative effect on meadow succession; (2) information is needed on the effect of meadow size on the diversity of breeding and foraging birds to fully predict the effect of land use changes; and (3) detailed studies involving marked individuals rather than singing male counts are needed to ensure accurate estimates of densities and essential habitat needs of breeding birds. KEYWORDS: montane meadows, meadow succession, nongpme wildlife management, avian ecology. In successfully occupying higher elevations, birds have accommodated a complex of environmental conditions--extensive solar radiation particularly in the ultraviolet spectrum, reduced air and oxygen pressure, intense night cooling by reradiation of heat, low atmospheric humidity, persistent wind, and, in winter, deep snowpack (Brinck 1974). Thus, high montane avifaunas are generally poor in species; populations often are small, reflecting low primary productivity; and densities vary from locale to locale (Dorst 1974).
