(WSAs) on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands. As part of the National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS), these WSAs are currently managed to preserve their natural characteristics. However, basic knowledge of the natural resources within many of Wyoming’s WSAs is severely limited, reducing BLM Wyoming’s ability to manage these areas. As a result, BLM Wyoming drafted a strategy for its NLCS lands in order to identify and address information needs and develop cohesive goals and guidelines for managing NLCS lands across the state (BLM 2013). The North Fork of the Powder River WSA (hereafter North Fork WSA) is a 10,089 acre area established in 1992 (https://www.blm.gov/node/9974/) at the southern end of the Big Horn Mountains. The North Fork of the Powder River and Pass Creek flow through deep, scenic canyons and the uplands support forests and meadows. Many animals are common in the WSA including elk (Cervus elaphus), black bear (Ursus americanus), eagles and hawks. The WSA has exceptional opportunities for solitude and primitive unconfined recreation; however, lack of public access restricts recreational use of this WSA. Little is known about the biota in this isolated and rugged WSA. Many animal species on the BLM’s Sensitive species list and Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s (WGFD) Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) may occur in the WSA, but formal surveys have not been conducted to confirm species occurrence. WYNDD is a service and research unit of the University of Wyoming dedicated to collecting and disseminating unbiased data on the biology and status of Sensitive species in Wyoming (http://www.uwyo.edu/wyndd/). Our mission is to generate information that helps organizations like the BLM make effective management decisions. Along these lines, WYNDD has worked with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and other state and federal experts to develop revised range maps and predictive distribution maps for Sensitive species in Wyoming. These projects have allowed WYNDD to identify gaps in our knowledge of Sensitive species distributions across the state. The biota of the North Fork WSA is one of those information gaps. Purpose and Objectives The purpose of this project was to fill information gaps for Sensitive species suspected to occur in the North Fork WSA and assist the BLM Buffalo Field Office in designing and establishing a monitoring framework for key resources in the WSA. This was accomplished by conducting a targeted inventory of local biota using a suite of survey and monitoring methods at key locations across the WSA. Specific objectives for the project were to: 1) Work with BLM Buffalo Field Office to develop a list of target species in order to fill gaps in our knowledge of the occurrence and status of these species

  • Macrolepidoptera Inventory of the Chilcotin District
    Macrolepidoptera Inventory of the Chilcotin District Aud I. Fischer – Biologist Jon H. Shepard - Research Scientist and Crispin S. Guppy – Research Scientist January 31, 2000 2 Abstract This study was undertaken to learn more of the distribution, status and habitat requirements of B.C. macrolepidoptera (butterflies and the larger moths), the group of insects given the highest priority by the BC Environment Conservation Center. The study was conducted in the Chilcotin District near Williams Lake and Riske Creek in central B.C. The study area contains a wide variety of habitats, including rare habitat types that elsewhere occur only in the Lillooet-Lytton area of the Fraser Canyon and, in some cases, the Southern Interior. Specimens were collected with light traps and by aerial net. A total of 538 species of macrolepidoptera were identified during the two years of the project, which is 96% of the estimated total number of species in the study area. There were 29,689 specimens collected, and 9,988 records of the number of specimens of each species captured on each date at each sample site. A list of the species recorded from the Chilcotin is provided, with a summary of provincial and global distributions. The habitats, at site series level as TEM mapped, are provided for each sample. A subset of the data was provided to the Ministry of Forests (Research Section, Williams Lake) for use in a Flamulated Owl study. A voucher collection of 2,526 moth and butterfly specimens was deposited in the Royal BC Museum. There were 25 species that are rare in BC, with most known only from the Riske Creek area.

Rozkošný, Dr. Sc. Alena Bučánková 2 Biologie, vývoj a zoogeografie vybraných saproxylických skupin orientálních druhů čeledi Stratiomyidae Abstrakt Je popsána morfologie, biologie a zoogeografie larev čtyř druhů z čeledi Stratiomyidae. Dva z nich, Pegadomyia pruinosa a Craspedometopon sp. n., patří do podčeledi Pachygasterinae, další dva, Adoxomyia bistriata a Cyphomyia bicarinata , patří do podčeledi Clitellariinae. Larvy byly sbírány Dr. D. Kovacem pod kůrou padlých stromů v Malysii a Thajsku. Saproxylický způsob života larev v rámci celé čeledi je zde diskutován jako původní stav. Byly vytypovány morfologické a biologické znaky larev s možným fylogenetickým významem a jejich platnost byla vyzkoušena v kladistických programech Nona a Winclada. Zjištěný fylogenetický vztah hlavních podčeledí odpovídá v podstatě současnému systému čeledi. Překážkou detailnímu vyhodnocení jsou zatím jen nedostatečné popisy larev a jejich malá znalost, zvláště v tropických oblastech. Biology, development and zoogeography of some saproxylic Oriental species of Stratiomyidae (Diptera) Abstract The morphology, biology and zoogeography of four larvae of Stratiomyidae are described. Two of them, Pegadomyia pruinosa , Craspedometopon sp. n. belong to the subfamily Pachygasteinae, the others, Adoxomyia bistriata and Cyphomyia bicarinata are placed to the subfamily Clitellariinae. The larvae were collected under the bark of fallen trees in Malaysia and Thailand by Dr. D. Kovac. The saproxylic habitat of stratiomyid larvae is discussed in this thesis as an original state. The morphological and biological characters of possible phylogenetic significance are evaluated and their value was verified with use of Nona and Winclada programs.

Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Erebia medusa, E. epipsodea, mtDNA, COI, ND1 Abstract. The extensive genus Erebia is divided into several groups of species according to phylogenetic relatedness. The species Erebia medusa was assigned to the medusa group and E. epipsodea to the alberganus group. A detailed study of the morphology of their copulatory organs indicated that these species are closely related and based on this E. epipsodea was transferred to the medusa group. Phylogenetic analyses of the gene sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (COI) and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (ND1) confirm that E. medusa and E. epipsodea are closely related. A possible scenario is that the North American species, E. episodea, evolved after exclusion/isolation from E. medusa, whose current centre of distribution is in Europe.

    Proceedings of the United States National Museum SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION . WASHINGTON, D.C. Volume 121 1967 Number 3569 SOLDIER FLY LARVAE IN AMERICA NORTH OF MEXICO ' By Max W. McFadden ^ The Stratiomyidae or soldier flies are represented in America north of Mexico by approximately 237 species distributed through 37 genera. Prior to this study, larvae have been described for only 21 species representmg 15 genera. In addition to the lack of adequate descriptions and keys, classification has seldom been attempted and a phylogenetic treatment of the larvae has never been presented. The present study has been undertaken with several goals in mind: to rear and describe (1) as many species as possible; (2) to redescribe all previously described larvae of North American species; and (3), on the basis of larval characters, to attempt to define various taxo- nomic units and show phylogenetic relationships withm the family and between it and other closely related familes. Any attempt to establish subfamilial and generic lunits must be regarded as tentative. This is especially true in the present study since larvae of so many species of Stratiomyidae remain unknown. Undoubtably, as more species are reared, changes mil have to be made in keys and definitions of taxa. The keys have been prepared chiefly for identification of last mstar larvae. If earher mstars are known, they either have been 1 Modified from a Ph. D. dissertation submitted to the University of Alberta E(hnonton, Canada. ' 2 Entomology Research Division, U.S. Dept.
