The Holocene transgression flooded a complex river-lake system of diverse geology, creating a small, deep inland sea with 12 significant watersheds draining both highlands and lowlands. The terrestrial, marine and coastal habitats provide a home for human populations, as well as other organisms. The original settlers colonized the region following the retreat of glaciers, and today their descendants make up the five Mi‘kmaq communities that account for a significant proportion of the population occupying large areas of the watershed.

(ii) To develop a trail system which completely encircles the BLBR by engaging with community trails organizations and guiding new developing trails. (iii) To promote education about the BLBR through Bras d’Or Watch, Forest Watch. and the four units of elementary inquiry-based Science Curriculum based on two eyed seeing. Research Brief description Approximately 5 lines People have studied the natural history of the BLBR since the end of the last glaciation. Modern cultural research began in the late 1600’s, and scientific research began in the late 1880’s. The major disciplines have all received attention, with cultural and natural history receiving most. In-depth programmes are rare, with foci on Mi’kmaq and Scottish culture, exploited natural resources, and conservation biology. Major research gaps include archaeology, oceanography, ecosystem dynamics and climate change. A diverse group of academic, government, NGO and private sector research institutions work in the Biosphere, with significant contributions from indigenous entities. Coordination of effort is limited, but growing. Monitoring Brief description Approximately 5 lines Ongoing scientific monitoring of the BLBR has been sporadic and of limited scope. Potable and estuarine water quality are best measured. Forest cover and a few terrestrial and aquatic species-at-risk are also tracked well. Some aquatic and estuarine habitat monitoring is underway, but there is no repeated mapping or shoreline profiling. There is an excellent network of weather stations. Much of the long-term monitoring is done by federal and provincial agencies, while indigenous institutions and NGO citizen-science programmes have initiated more focused monitoring during the last decade.

  • Clear Plastic Bags of Bark Mulch Trap and Kill Female Megachile (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) Searching for Nesting Sites
    JOURNAL OF THE KANSAS ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY 92(4), 2019, pp. 649-654 SHORT COMMUNICATION Clear Plastic Bags of Bark Mulch Trap and Kill Female Megachile (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) Searching for Nesting Sites Casey M. Delphia1*, Justin B. Runyon2, and Kevin M. O’Neill3 ABSTRACT: In 2017, we found 17 dead females of Megachile frigida Smith in clear plastic bags of com- posted bark mulch in a residential yard in Bozeman, Montana, USA. Females apparently entered bags via small ventilation holes, then became trapped and died. To investigate whether this is a common source of mortality, we deployed unmodified bags of mulch and those fitted with cardboard tubes (as potential nest sites) at three nearby sites in 2018. We found two dead M. frigida females and five completed leaf cells in one of these bags of mulch fitted with cardboard tubes; two male M. frigida emerged from these leaf cells. In 2018, we also discovered three dead female M. frigida and three dead females of a second leafcutter bee species, Megachile gemula Cresson, in clear bags of another type of bark mulch. Both mulches emitted nearly identical blends of volatile organic compounds, suggesting their odors could attract females searching for nesting sites. These findings suggest that more research is needed to determine how common and wide- spread this is for Megachile species that nest in rotting wood and if there are simple solutions to this problem. KEYWORDS: Leafcutter bees, solitary bees, cavity-nesting bees, Apoidea, wild bees, pollinators, Megachile frigida, Megachile gemula The leafcutter bees Megachile frigida Smith, 1853 and Megachile gemula Cresson, 1878 (Megachilidae) are widespread in North America (Mitchell 1960; Michener, 2007; Sheffield et al., 2011).

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

The analysis revealed 27 new records of brown algae for Hainan Island, including 5 species which also constitute new records for China. 21 of these species are de- scribed with photographs and an annotated list of all species with information on life forms, habitat (localities and tidal zones) and their geographical distribution is provided. Keywords: Hainan Island, new records, seaweeds, brown algae Introduction et al. 1994; Hodgson & Yau 1997; Tadashi et al. 2008). Overall, algal species richness also changed. Hainan Island is located on the subtropical northern Partial inventory of the benthic flora of Hainan has periphery of the Pacific Ocean in the South China Sea already been carried out (Titlyanov et al. 2011a, 2015, 2016; (18˚10′-20˚9′ N, 108˚37′-111˚1′ E).
