It seems that summer has kicked into gear in many parts of North America a little early. The grass is turning green, the trees are beginning to bud and the snow shovels are put away for the season. There’s been a little bit of tropo. There’s been a little bit of skip in the south. There’s also been some horrible storms and tornados in places. We hope everyone is okay and stayed out of danger. This month we find that Ken Simon (Lake Worthless, FL) has rejoined the club.

    This file was created by scanning the printed publication. Errors identified by the software have been corrected; however, some errors may remain. JOURNAL OF CRUSTACEAN BIOLOGY, 13(1): 184-189, 1993 PERSISTENCE OF BRANCHINECTA PALUDOSA (ANOSTRACA) IN SOUTHERN WYOMING, WITH NOTES ON ZOOGEOGRAPHY James F. Saunders III, Denton Belk, and Richard Dufford ABSTRACT The fairy shrimp Branchinectapaludosa is a persistentresident of aestival ponds at high elevation in the Medicine Bow Mountains of southernWyoming. These populationsare far removed from the Arctic tundrahabitat that typifiesthe distributionof the species, and appear to representthe southern margin of the range in North America. All of the records for the northernUnited States and southernCanada appear to lie along the CentralFlyway that is a major migrationroute for waterfowland shorebirdsthat nest in the Arctic. Passive dispersal probablyprovides for frequentcolonization of marginalhabitats and gene flow to established populations. The fairy shrimp Branchinectapaludosa have been deposited in the University of (Muller)is widely distributedin the circum- Colorado Museum (UCM 2192, 2193, polar tundra of the Holarctic region (Vek- 2194).

In Europe, it occurs chiefly at nant which rises about 300 m above the latitudes above 60?N, but there are isolated surrounding Medicine Bow Mountains recordsfrom the High Tatra Mountains on (Houston and others, 1978). The ponds are the borderbetween Czechoslovakiaand Po- mainly in the upperTelephone Creek drain- land at about 49?N (Brtek, 1976). Records age at elevations of 3,200-3,350 m.

First the plan is published in the U.S. Feder­ al Register. After a 30 day public notification GJti&. period, the plan will be sent to John E. Cook, National Park Service Intermountain Region director, for his signature. When he signs, at last, the plan is final. The final version of the General Manage­ ment Plan is more a guide on how to proceed rather than a detailed plan of action. The goal remains to preserve Glacier as a "classic western national park". The top priority is the reconstruction of Going-to-the-Sun road. Instead of the old alter­ native where the road would be repaired on a fast track schedule with the west side to Logan Pass closed for up to two years and the east side up to Logan Pass closed for another two ,___?« MACLEOD' years, now the Park suggests a procedure to develop a plan but no plan is proposed.
