    HABITAT SUITABILITY AND DETECTION PROBABILITY OF LONGNOSE DARTER (PERCINA NASUTA) IN OKLAHOMA By COLT TAYLOR HOLLEY Bachelor of Science in Natural Resource Ecology and Management Oklahoma State University Stillwater, OK 2016 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE December, 2018 HABITAT SUITABILITY AND DETECTION PROBABILITY OF LONGNOSE DARTER (PERCINA NASUTA) IN OKLAHOMA Thesis Approved: Dr. James M. Long Thesis Advisor Dr. Shannon Brewer Dr. Monica Papeş ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am truly thankful for the support of my advisor, Dr. Jim Long, throughout my time at Oklahoma State University. His motivation and confidence in me was invaluable. I also thank my committee members Dr. Shannon Brewer and Dr. Mona Papeş for their contributions to my education and for their comments that improved this thesis. I thank the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation (ODWC) for providing the funding for this project and the Oklahoma Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit (OKCFWRU) for their logistical support. I thank Tommy Hall, James Mier, Bill Rogers, Dick Rogers, and Mr. and Mrs. Terry Scott for allowing me to access Lee Creek from their properties. Much of my research could not have been accomplished without them. My field technicians Josh, Matt, and Erick made each field season enjoyable and I could not have done it without their help. The camaraderie of my friends and fellow graduate students made my time in Stillwater feel like home. I consider Dr. Andrew Taylor to be a mentor, fishing partner, and one of my closest friends.

  • Endangered Species
    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

  • Testimony by Congressman Mike Ross Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas
    Testimony by Congressman Mike Ross Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas United States Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Field Hearing “FEMA’s Manufactured Housing Program: Haste Makes Waste” April 21, 2006 Thank you for having me here today, and I appreciate the opportunity to discuss the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the manufactured homes at the Municipal Airport here in Hope, Arkansas. I would like to thank Chairwoman Susan Collins and Senator Mark Pryor for inviting me to join you today. Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast on August 29th, 2005. Our hearts and prayers go out to all the people that were drastically impacted as a result of this storm, who lost their home and literally everything they owned. I grew up in this area in Prescott, Emmet and Hope, and graduated in this very city from Hope High School in 1979. It is with great disappointment that I remind you it has been almost eight months since Hurricane Katrina, yet over 10,000 brand-new, fully furnished manufactured homes remain parked in a hay meadow at the Hope Municipal Airport, over 450 miles from the eye of the storm while thousands remain homeless. The situation at the Hope Airport is a symbol of the mishandlings of this disaster by this Administration and by FEMA Shortly after Hurricane Katrina, FEMA selected the Hope Airport because of the old World War II Army airport facility at this location. They wanted to use the inactive runways, taxiways, and tarmacs as a FEMA staging area. The original purpose was to store manufactured homes purchased as temporary housing for displaced families before they were sent to the devastated area.
