  • Moths of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge
    MOTHS OF UMATILLA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE: Results from 10 sites Sampled May 22-23, 2017 Dana Ross 1005 NW 30th Street Corvallis, OR 97330 (541) 758-3006 [email protected] SUMMARY Macro-moths were sampled from the Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge for a third time 22-23 May, 2017 as part of an ongoing pollinator inventory. Blacklight traps were deployed for a single night at ten sites representative of major plant communities in the McCormack and Paterson Units. A grand total of 331 specimens and 36 moth species were sampled. Of those, 17 species (47%) were documented from the refuge for the first time. In a somewhat larger geographical context, 21 species were recorded for the first (8), second (7) or third (6) time from Morrow County, Oregon while 4 species were documented for the first (1) or second (3) time from Benton County, Washington. INTRODUCTION National Wildlife Refuges protect important habitats for many plant and animal species. Refuge inventories have frequently included plants, birds and mammals, but insects - arguably the most abundant and species-rich group in any terrestrial habitat - have largely been ignored. Small size, high species richness and a lack of identification resources have all likely contributed to their being overlooked. Certain groups such as moths, however, can be easily and inexpensively sampled using light traps and can be identified by regional moth taxonomists. Once identified, many moth species can be tied to known larval hostplant species at a given site, placing both insect and plant within a larger ecological context. Moths along with butterflies belong to the insect Order Lepidoptera.

This preserve is only a few miles from both the Indiana and Michigan state borders. The great biodiversity of moths is reflected in the bog, fen, shrub swamp, and marsh communities bor­ dering the lake. A check list of species summarizes identified collections for 1988,1992,1995 and 1996 and includes the Hodges et al (1983) species num­ bers, the scientific name, and the numbers collected by different collecting methods.

  • Moose Lake Report 2006
    Collection of Lepidoptera at Moose Lake Provincial Park in 2006 C. Bruce Christensen, June 1, 2008 5702 43 A ST. Vegreville, AB, T9C 1E3 [email protected] Description of Moose Lake Provincial Park Moose Lake Provincial Park is located approximately 15 km SW of Bonnyville, Alberta, Canada in the northern boreal forest at coordinates 54.16, 110.54. The park consists of numerous inter-mixed habitats, including jack pine, paper birch, poplar, white spruce, black spruce bog, sand dune, flowering shrubs and other trees, and beach areas with forbs and sedge growth. Dead Man’s Point is a very densely forested area of Moose Lake Provincial Park. Cattails, forbs and sedges and shrubs lead up to the forested areas from the lake. Selection of Location and Sites Moose Lake is within 50 km of the Alberta-Saskatchewan border, which increases the probability of finding new species for Alberta. The park is reasonably level throughout with numerous well-groomed trails for easy access (all sites accessible by walking or road vehicle). This reduces the cost of accessing the sites. Each trap site was selected to maximize the diversity of habitats in an attempt to collect the largest variety of lepidopteran species. 2 Moose Lake Provincial Park is located west of Bonnyville in Alberta, Canada Collection Purpose The purpose of this study was to collect and identify a cross-section of the lepidopteran species indigenous to the Moose Lake area and to mount one or more specimens of each species for archival purposes in the Strickland Museum, University of Alberta. Collection Techniques Several collection techniques were used to obtain a more complete profile of the species of the area.
