Risk of Introduction of Pests to Idaho via Municipal Solid Waste from Hawaii. 233 2 I. Introduction and Background on Proposed Action This biological assessment (BA) has been prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to evaluate the potential effects on federally-listed threatened and endangered species and designated critical habitat from the movement of baled garbage and regulated (domestic) garbage (GRG) from the State of Hawaii for disposal at landfills in Oregon, Idaho, and Washington. Specifically, garbage is defined as urban (commercial and residential) solid waste from municipalities in Hawaii, excluding incinerator ash and collections of agricultural waste and yard waste. Regulated (domestic) garbage refers to articles generated in Hawaii that are restricted from movement to the continental United States under various quarantine regulations established to prevent the spread of plant pests (including insects, disease, and weeds) into areas where the pests are not prevalent.

An overview of the land-snail fauna of the Lesser Antillean island of Dominica is given, based on data from literature and four recent surveys. There are 42 taxa listed, of which the following species are recorded for the fi rst time from the island: Allopeas gracile (Hutt on, 1834), A. micra (d’Orbigny, 1835), Beckianum beckianum (L. Pfeiff er, 1846), Bulimulus diaphanus fraterculus (Potiez & Michaud, 1835), De- roceras laeve (Müller, 1774), Sarasinula marginata (Semper, 1885), Streptostele musaecola (Morelet, 1860) and Veronicella sloanii (Cuvier, 1817). The enigmatic Bulimulus stenogyroides Guppy, 1868 is now placed in the genus Naesiotus Albers, 1850.

Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Evolução – PPGEE, Laboratório de Malacologia Límnica e Terrestre, Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro – UERJ, Rua São Francisco Xavier, 524, PHLC, sala 224, CEP 20550-013, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil *e-mail: [email protected] Received November 30, 2010 – Accepted February 1, 2011 – Distributed February 29, 2012 (With 4 figures) Abstract The distribution and abundance of terrestrial molluscs are affected by environmental factors, but data are lacking for Brazilian land snails. The aim of this study was to understand the relationship between measured environmental factors and the land-snail species composition of two hillsides covered with Atlantic Rain Forest on Ilha Grande. On each hillside, five plots located at 100 m intervals between 100 to 500 m asl were chosen. Each plot was sampled by carrying out timed searches and collecting and sorting litter samples from ten quadrats of 25 × 75 cm. A range of environmental data was measured for each of the quadrats in a plot. A Cluster Analysis was carried out for the richness and abundance data. The environmental variables were analysed using a Pearson Correlation Matrix and Discriminant Analysis. Our results show that the two mountains are similar in species richness, but species composition and abundance are different, probably reflecting observed differences in environmental conditions. The environmental factors associated with compositional variation between the two mountains were: atmospheric temperature, soil temperature, litter depth, and relative air humidity.

  • Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago
    Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago Christopher D. Wells A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Kenneth P. Sebens, Chair Megan N. Dethier Jennifer L. Ruesink Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Biology Department ©Copyright 2019 Christopher D. Wells ii University of Washington ABSTRACT Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago Christopher D. Wells Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Kenneth P. Sebens Biology Department and School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences Hexacorallians are one of the most conspicuous and dominant suspension feeders in temperate and tropical environments. While temperate hexacorallians are particularly diverse in the northeast Pacific, little work has been done in examining their biology and ecology. Within this dissertation, I describe a novel method for marking soft-bodied invertebrates such as hexacorallians (Chapter 1), examine the prey selectivity of the competitively dominant anemone Metridium farcimen with DNA metabarcoding (Chapter 2), and explore the distribution of the most common hard-bottom hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago (Chapter 3). In the first chapter, I found that both methylene blue and neutral red make excellent markers for long-term monitoring of M. farcimen with marked individuals identifiable for up to six weeks and seven months, respectively. I also found that fluorescein is lethal in small dosages to M. farcimen and should not be used as a marker. Neutral red could be used for long-term monitoring of growth and survival in the field, and in combination with methylene blue could be iii used to mark individuals in distinguishable patterns for short-term studies such as examining predator-prey interactions, movement of individuals, and recruitment survival.

    Biotemas, 30 (4): 31-40, dezembro de 2017 http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/2175-7925.2017v30n4p31 ISSNe 2175-7925 Gastrópodes (Mollusca) presentes no campus Urca da Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO) Guilherme de Lima Alexandre * Hellen Virgínie Damasceno Igor Christo Miyahira Carlos Henrique Soares Caetano Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Centro de Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde Instituto de Biociências, Departamento de Zoologia Avenida Pasteur, 458, CEP 22290-240, Rio de Janeiro – RJ, Brasil * Autor para correspondência [email protected] Submetido em 10/05/2017 Aceito para publicação em 28/07/2017 Resumo Gastropoda é o grupo mais diverso de Mollusca, contudo ainda existem muitas lacunas no conhecimento, e os moluscos terrestres e de água doce são um exemplo. Desta forma, apresentamos o levantamento dos gastrópodes do campus Urca da Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO), área limítrofe com o Parque Natural Municipal da Paisagem Carioca e inclusa na área de amortecimento do Monumento Natural dos Morros do Pão de Açúcar e da Urca. Foram selecionados 11 pontos de amostragem e utilizamos uma metodologia direta de coleta. Ao todo foi encontrado um total de 1829 exemplares distribuídos em 18 espécies dentro de 12 famílias. O presente estudo pode mostrar a importância de áreas urbanas protegidas na conservação da fauna, tendo em vista o quantitativo de espécies nativas encontradas e o registro de primeira ocorrência de uma das espécies para o estado do Rio de Janeiro. Palavras-chave: Biodiversidade; Fauna urbana; Levantamento faunístico Abstract Gastropods (Mollusca) present on the Urca campus of the Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO).

During the years i960 to 1964 a major reorganization of the molluscan collection of the Department of Living Invertebrates of the American Museum of Natural History was undertaken under the auspices of the National Science Foundation. The valuable work done in this period indicated the desirability of preparing a catalog of the Recent mollus¬ can .jjucxiuuiis held by the museum. While most of the type specimens had been separated from the main collection for a number of years, an attempt was made to complete this segregation. Many specimens not previously recognized as types were transferred to the type repository and this paper is a preliminary attempt to catalog and evaluate the specimens now held separately in this repository. Much of the museum's collection consists of historically important material from old collections in which the identification of type specimens is often difficult and uncertain. The concept and importance of a type was sometimes improperly understood by early collectors and misconceptions later arose from their incorrect and inadequate labels.
