Pheromone-Based Disruption of Eucosma Sonomana and Rhyacionia Zozana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) Using Aerially Applied Microencapsulated Pheromone1
361 Pheromone-based disruption of Eucosma sonomana and Rhyacionia zozana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) using aerially applied microencapsulated pheromone1 Nancy E. Gillette, John D. Stein, Donald R. Owen, Jeffrey N. Webster, and Sylvia R. Mori Abstract: Two aerial applications of microencapsulated pheromone were conducted on five 20.2 ha plots to disrupt western pine shoot borer (Eucosma sonomana Kearfott) and ponderosa pine tip moth (Rhyacionia zozana (Kearfott); Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) orientation to pheromones and oviposition in ponderosa pine plantations in 2002 and 2004. The first application was made at 29.6 g active ingredient (AI)/ha, and the second at 59.3 g AI/ha. Baited sentinel traps were used to assess disruption of orientation by both moth species toward pheromones, and E. sonomana infes- tation levels were tallied from 2001 to 2004. Treatments disrupted orientation by both species for several weeks, with the first lasting 35 days and the second for 75 days. Both applications reduced infestation by E. sonomana,but the lower application rate provided greater absolute reduction, perhaps because prior infestation levels were higher in 2002 than in 2004. Infestations in treated plots were reduced by two-thirds in both years, suggesting that while increas- ing the application rate may prolong disruption, it may not provide greater proportional efficacy in terms of tree pro- tection. The incidence of infestations even in plots with complete disruption suggests that treatments missed some early emerging females or that mated females immigrated into treated plots; thus operational testing should be timed earlier in the season and should comprise much larger plots. In both years, moths emerged earlier than reported pre- viously, indicating that disruption programs should account for warmer climates in timing of applications. -
Forest Tortricids Trapped Using Eucosma and Rhyacionia Synthetic Sex Attractants
Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 39(1), 1985, 26-32 FOREST TORTRICIDS TRAPPED USING EUCOSMA AND RHYACIONIA SYNTHETIC SEX ATTRACTANTS R. E. STEVENS,I C. SARTWELL,2 T. W. KOERBER,3 J. A. POWELL,4 G. E. DATERMAN,2 AND L. L. SOWER2 ABSTRACT. Moths of 31 non-target species of Tortricidae (30 Olethreutinae, 1 Tor tricinae) were lured to synthetic Eucosma and Rhyacionia sex attractants deployed in pine forests throughout 12 states in the western U.S. Genera represented include Petrova, Barbara, Phaneta, Eucosma, Epiblema, Epinotia, Ancylis, Dichrorampha, Sereda, Grapholita, Cydia, and Decodes, as well as a new genus near Rhyacionia. In 1977 and 1978 we conducted an extensive trapping survey in pine forests in the western United States, using synthetic sex attractants. The primary objective was to learn more about geographical distribution and host relationships of Eucosma sonomana Kearfott and species of Rhyacionia. While the major results have been published (Sartwell et aI., 1980; Stevens et aI., 1980), a variety of other moths, largely ole threutines, also responded to the lures. These were saved and identified when their numbers indicated more than chance captures. Generally, a minimum of 4-6 similar moths at a trapping location was considered sufficient to indicate attraction was not incidental, although in some instances we recovered fewer. The catches reported here provide clues regarding pheromone chemistry of and possible taxonomic relation ships among certain species. The information may be useful for future studies on these and related species. It also provides range extensions for some of the species captured. METHODS Details of the methods, including trapping periods and precise trap locations for most collections, are presented in the previously cited works (Sartwell et aI., 1980; Stevens et aI., 1980). -

Southwestern Pine Tip Moth: Notes on Larval Descent Behavior
THE SOUTHWESTERN NATURALIST 28(1):95-123 FEBRUARY 18, 1983 NOTES ADDITIONAL RECORDS OF BLACK-FOOTED FERRETS IN WYOMING.-Black-footed ferrets (Mustela nigripes) have been observed infrequently in Wyoming. Clark (Northwest Sci., 54:47-54, 1980) listed 148 black-footed ferret sight records in the state from 1851-1977, with 23 veri- fied by specimens. Twenty-one ferrets were reported from the eastern half of the state and two from northwestern (Park County) Wyoming. No specimens have been reported from southwestern counties. I acquired six additional specimens of this species while conducting statewide searches for black-footed ferrets on 245 white-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys leucurus) towns in 1978 and 1979. Three black-footed ferret skulls were found in south central Wyoming (Carbon County), 28-31 km NE Rawlins, and represent new records from within the reported range in Wyoming. Three addi- tional skulls (one from a 87-ha prairie dog town, 48 km south of Kemmerer, T16N, R118W, SW'4 Sec. 11; one from a 327-ha town, T16N, R118W, SEMSec. 12; and one from a 415-ha town, T16N, R117W, NW4 Sec. 7) constitute the only verified records of the black-footed ferret for southwestern (Uinta County) Wyoming. Repeated searches of locations where skulls were found plus adjacent towns in these areas, revealed no sign of present ferret occupation. Specimens were deposited in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Biological Surveys Museum in Fort Collins, Colorado. I thank the Wyoming State Office of the Bureau of Land Management for funding and the many people who helped conduct these searches. -

Response of Ponderosa Pine Stands to Pre-Commercial Thinning on Nez Perce and Spokane Tribal Forests in the Inland Northwest, USA
Response of Ponderosa Pine Stands to Pre-Commercial Thinning on Nez Perce and Spokane Tribal Forests in the Inland Northwest, USA Dennis E. Ferguson, John C. Byrne, William R. Wykoff, Brian Kummet, and Ted Hensold United States Department of Agriculture / Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station Research Paper RMRS-RP-88 June 2011 Ferguson, Dennis E.; Byrne, John C.; Wykoff, William R.; Kummet, Brian; Hensold, Ted. 2011.

Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 33 p. Abstract Stands of dense, natural ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa var. ponderosa) regeneration were operationally, pre- commercially thinned at seven sites—four on Nez Perce Tribal lands in northern Idaho and three on Spokane Tribal lands in eastern Washington. Five spacing treatments were studied—control (no thinning), 5x5 ft, 7x7 ft, 10x10 ft, and 14x14 ft. Sample trees were measured pre- and post-thinning, 3 yrs after thinning, and 5 yrs after thinning, starting in 1997 (Nez Perce sites) and 1998 (Spokane sites). Models of diameter and height growth, change in crown ratio and height to crown base, and probability of western pine shoot borer (Eucosma sonomana Kearfott) infestation were developed. Little mortality occurred after thinning, and the trees that died had small crowns. Diameter growth for all of the spacings was significantly different, with widely spaced trees growing faster than narrowly spaced trees. Trees with larger initial diameters or crown ratios had faster post-thinning diameter growth. -
Entomological Nomenclature Literature
ENTOMOLOGICAL NOMENCLATURE AND LITERATURE 3rd Edition Revised and Enlarged By W. J. CHAMBERLIN Oreqon State CoUeqe WM. C. BROWN COMPANY DUBUQUE. IOWA ENTOMOLOGICAL NOMENCLA TURE AND LITERATURE Copyright 1952 by W J . Chamberlin Manufactured by WM C. BROWN CO., INC., Dubuque, Iowa Prlnled In U.S.A. PREFACE In attempting to teach courses dealing with various phases of entomology over a period of 30 years, there has been an increasing tendency to separate course work into more and more restricted fields. Much of the material presented herewith is given by various instructors in connection with courses in historical entomology, taxonomy, etc., and, in such courses, it is usually treate d only briefly and in an incidental manner. Nomenclature is of sufficient importance that it should be treated directly and with con s iderable emphasis. Its importance, development and historical background should be understood by every student in entomology. Literature is, of course, the basis from which all present-day workers get their inspira tion, and the literature in the field of entomology is so extensive that one must handle it in a systematic manner. It has been the hope of the writer that, by pointing out those works where bibliographies are obtainable, the task of obtaining information on any given phase of entomology would be made an easier one. When late works are available which contain extensive bibliographies, such as Wiggles worth, Principles of Insect Physiology, or Snodgrass, Principles of Insect Morphology, the student is referred to those works, and from the bibliographies he will be able to select those applicable to the problem at hand.
