Numerous outside experts also provided important inputs. The project was coordinated by staff in the ECS Office. Dan Morse conducted all GIS analyses and developed both working group maps as well as final products. His patience and creativity are much appreciated. Arlene Olivero conducted the aquatics GIS assessment and provided detailed maps on aquatic systems and watershed condition to the aquatics working group and did all data management. Her long and hard work has developed new methods for aquatic assessment that will be further refined and used in all Northeastern ecoregions. Shyama Khanna obtained and maintained all Heritage data sets throughout this process, sustaining an optimistic outlook despite frequent small scale changes. Mark Anderson mentored the entire process, developing key concepts to initiate new approaches to ecoregional planning as well as enforcing that standards in use for other plans are maintained. The Aquatics Working Group was let by George Schuler who provided expert leadership and key ideas to the development of the aquatics assessment process. George wrote the aquatics section. The Plant Working Group was led by Troy Weldy with patience and clear thought in defining targets and assessing potential occurrences. The Animal Working Group was led by Tony Davis, who brought together a vast amount of variable-quality data into a sensible conservation agenda and endured a nearly endless series of telephone calls with small questions. Julie Lundgren coordinated the development of the HAL community classification. Others who provided key assistance include: Nick Donelly, Su Fanok, Jim Thorne, Charles Bier, Steve Grund, Jeff Wagner, Tim Tear, Tony Wilkinson, Colin Apse, Randy Grey, Mike VanClef, Anne Heasley, Sandy Bonanno, Jim Howe, Susan Stout, Dan Devlin, Paul Novak, Troy Weldy, Tom Breden, John Kunsman, Greg Podneisinski, Lesley Sneddon, DJ Evans, Adele Olivero, Barbara Bedford, Bob Wesley, Betsy Nightengale, Mark Bryer, and Nicole Capuano. 7/2002 – Edited 10/2002 1 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Brief description of the ecoregion The High Allegheny Plateau Ecoregion is located along the southern tier of New York and the northern tier of Pennsylvania. It includes a small portion of New Jersey. Well known features in HAL include the Catskills, The Shawangunks, The Kittatinny Ridge, The Poconos, Allegany State Park, Allegheny National Forest, and a large mass of Pennsylvania state-owned land. The ecoregion is defined by high elevation features at the northern end of the Appalachian Plateau. Most of the ecoregion is above 1200 feet. The general land form of the area is mid- elevation hills separated by numerous narrow stream-cut valleys. One of

I’m preparing for craft fairs, cooking, dressing the dogs in blaze orange finery, and anticipating the dreaded holiday family get-togethers. We’ve all been there, sitting around the table with Aunt Gertie and Uncle Jasper, and someone asks you about Your Hiking Thing. After all the requisite jokes about the Bataan Death March and how the only hiking Cousin Fred is doing this year is to the fridge and back to the couch… someone asks you the why question. Why do you do it? Why a list? Why in the winter? And especially why if there is no view at the top? I have said it before: the Catskill Forest Preserve is my temple and my gym. The oft repeated John Burroughs quote rings true for me: I too go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

  • HIGH ALLEGHENY PLATEAU ECOREGIONAL PLAN: FIRST ITERATION Conservation Science Support—Northeast and Caribbean
    HIGH ALLEGHENY PLATEAU ECOREGIONAL PLAN: FIRST ITERATION Conservation Science Support—Northeast and Caribbean The High Allegheny Plan is a first iteration, a scientific assessment of the ecoregion. As part of the planning process, other aspects of the plan will be developed in future iterations, along with updates to the ecological assessment itself. These include fuller evaluations of threats to the ecoregion, constraints on conservation activities, and implementation strategies. CSS is now developing a standard template for ecoregional plans, which we have applied to the HAL first iteration draft report, distributed in 2002. Some of the HAL results have been edited or updated for this version. Click on the navigation pane to browse the report sections. What is the purpose of the report template? The purpose of creating a standard template for ecoregional plans in the Northeast is twofold: — to compile concise descriptions of methodologies developed and used for ecoregional assessment in the Northeast. These descriptions are meant to meet the needs of planning team members who need authoritative text to include in future plan documents, of science staff who need to respond to questions of methodology, and of program and state directors looking for material for general audience publications. — to create a modular resource whose pieces can be selected, incorporated in various formats, linked to in other documents, and updated easily. How does the template work? Methods are separated from results in this format, and the bulk of our work has gone into the standard methods sections. We have tried to make each methods section stand alone. Every section includes its own citation on the first page.

  • CHECKLIST of WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea)
    WISCONSIN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 6 JUNE 2018 CHECKLIST OF WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea) Leslie A. Ferge,1 George J. Balogh2 and Kyle E. Johnson3 ABSTRACT A total of 1284 species representing the thirteen families comprising the present checklist have been documented in Wisconsin, including 293 species of Geometridae, 252 species of Erebidae and 584 species of Noctuidae. Distributions are summarized using the six major natural divisions of Wisconsin; adult flight periods and statuses within the state are also reported. Examples of Wisconsin’s diverse native habitat types in each of the natural divisions have been systematically inventoried, and species associated with specialized habitats such as peatland, prairie, barrens and dunes are listed. INTRODUCTION This list is an updated version of the Wisconsin moth checklist by Ferge & Balogh (2000). A considerable amount of new information from has been accumulated in the 18 years since that initial publication. Over sixty species have been added, bringing the total to 1284 in the thirteen families comprising this checklist. These families are estimated to comprise approximately one-half of the state’s total moth fauna. Historical records of Wisconsin moths are relatively meager. Checklists including Wisconsin moths were compiled by Hoy (1883), Rauterberg (1900), Fernekes (1906) and Muttkowski (1907). Hoy's list was restricted to Racine County, the others to Milwaukee County. Records from these publications are of historical interest, but unfortunately few verifiable voucher specimens exist. Unverifiable identifications and minimal label data associated with older museum specimens limit the usefulness of this information. Covell (1970) compiled records of 222 Geometridae species, based on his examination of specimens representing at least 30 counties.
