  • List of Animal Species with Ranks October 2017
    Washington Natural Heritage Program List of Animal Species with Ranks October 2017 The following list of animals known from Washington is complete for resident and transient vertebrates and several groups of invertebrates, including odonates, branchipods, tiger beetles, butterflies, gastropods, freshwater bivalves and bumble bees. Some species from other groups are included, especially where there are conservation concerns. Among these are the Palouse giant earthworm, a few moths and some of our mayflies and grasshoppers. Currently 857 vertebrate and 1,100 invertebrate taxa are included. Conservation status, in the form of range-wide, national and state ranks are assigned to each taxon. Information on species range and distribution, number of individuals, population trends and threats is collected into a ranking form, analyzed, and used to assign ranks. Ranks are updated periodically, as new information is collected. We welcome new information for any species on our list.

Over 10,500 names are treated including 6,793 valid species and subspecies (with 1,907 primary synonyms), 1,271 genera and subgenera (with 393 primary synonyms), 93 families and 38 superfamilies. Nomenclatural and taxonomic problems are reviewed in detail, and many resolved. Detailed notes and references are provided where necessary. The constitution of a large number of families and superfamilies is discussed in detail, with the positions of some taxa rearranged in an attempt to form a stable base for future taxonomic studies. This is the first time the nomenclature of any large group of decapod crustaceans has been examined in such detail.

  • Burke from Home Home
    BURKE FROM HOME HOME ALL AGES! BEST FOR GRADES 2-8 LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The Burke Museum stands on the lands of the Coast Salish peoples, whose ancestors resided here since time immemorial. Many Indigenous peoples thrive in this place—alive and strong. WHAT’S INSIDE • Learn about two important Indigenous building styles in the Pacific Northwest and how environment influences engineering. • Animals build homes too! Go for a walk to look for signs of animal neighbors, then try your hand at helping a crafty creature decorate its home. • Reflect on what “home” means to you and design an object label for something that is meaningful in your own home. INTRODUCTION The structure of a house and the items within tell a story about the people who live there. Many Tribes across the United States build traditional homes called longhouses. The materials used and the overall structure varies, depending on the environment and resources where the Tribe is from, but regardless, the longhouse is the center and heart of the people. In the Pacific Northwest, the longhouse has many names: longhouse, cedar plank house, smoke house and lodge. Traditionally these buildings would house multiple families and be a place for social and ceremonial gatherings, including, hosting neighboring Tribes. Today, Tribes throughout the Pacific Northwest continue to gather in community centers built like these traditional homes. Both traditional and contemporary methods and materials are used to construct them. These buildings are examples of living traditions! The Community Building at Celilo Village east of The Dalles, Oregon Many people have the misconception that tipis are is modeled after a traditional tule mat longhouse.

  • Temporal Trends of Two Spider Crabs (Brachyura, Majoidea) in Nearshore Kelp Habitats in Alaska, U.S.A
    TEMPORAL TRENDS OF TWO SPIDER CRABS (BRACHYURA, MAJOIDEA) IN NEARSHORE KELP HABITATS IN ALASKA, U.S.A. BY BENJAMIN DALY1,3) and BRENDA KONAR2,4) 1) University of Alaska Fairbanks, School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, 201 Railway Ave, Seward, Alaska 99664, U.S.A. 2) University of Alaska Fairbanks, School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, P.O. Box 757220, Fairbanks, Alaska 99775, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Pugettia gracilis and Oregonia gracilis are among the most abundant crab species in Alaskan kelp beds and were surveyed in two different kelp habitats in Kachemak Bay, Alaska, U.S.A., from June 2005 to September 2006, in order to better understand their temporal distribution. Habitats included kelp beds with understory species only and kelp beds with both understory and canopy species, which were surveyed monthly using SCUBA to quantify crab abundance and kelp density. Substrate complexity (rugosity and dominant substrate size) was assessed for each site at the beginning of the study. Pugettia gracilis abundance was highest in late summer and in habitats containing canopy kelp species, while O. gracilis had highest abundance in understory habitats in late summer. Large- scale migrations are likely not the cause of seasonal variation in abundances. Microhabitat resource utilization may account for any differences in temporal variation between P. gracilis and O. gracilis. Pugettia gracilis may rely more heavily on structural complexity from algal cover for refuge with abundances correlating with seasonal changes in kelp structure. Oregonia gracilis mayrelyonkelp more for decoration and less for protection provided by complex structure. Kelp associated crab species have seasonal variation in habitat use that may be correlated with kelp density.

  • 1 Metagenetic Analysis of 2018 and 2019 Plankton Samples from Prince
    Metagenetic Analysis of 2018 and 2019 Plankton Samples from Prince William Sound, Alaska. Report to Prince William Sound Regional Citizens’ Advisory Council (PWSRCAC) From Molecular Ecology Laboratory Moss Landing Marine Laboratory Dr. Jonathan Geller Melinda Wheelock Martin Guo Any opinions expressed in this PWSRCAC-commissioned report are not necessarily those of PWSRCAC. April 13, 2020 ABSTRACT This report describes the methods and findings of the metagenetic analysis of plankton samples from the waters of Prince William Sound (PWS), Alaska, taken in May of 2018 and 2019. The study was done to identify zooplankton, in particular the larvae of benthic non-indigenous species (NIS). Plankton samples, collected by the Prince William Sound Science Center (PWSSC), were analyzed by the Molecular Ecology Laboratory at the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories. The samples were taken from five stations in Port Valdez and nearby in PWS. DNA was extracted from bulk plankton and a portion of the mitochondrial Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene (the most commonly used DNA barcode for animals) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Products of PCR were sequenced using Illumina reagents and MiSeq instrument. In 2018, 257 operational taxonomic units (OTU; an approximation of biological species) were found and 60 were identified to species. In 2019, 523 OTU were found and 126 were identified to species. Most OTU had no reference sequence and therefore could not be identified. Most identified species were crustaceans and mollusks, and none were non-native. Certain species typical of fouling communities, such as Porifera (sponges) and Bryozoa (moss animals) were scarce. Larvae of many species in these phyla are poorly dispersing, such that they will be found in abundance only in close proximity to adult populations.
