A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Biological Sciences University of Alaska Fairbanks August 2017 APPROVED: Pat Doak, Committee Chair Greg Breed, Committee Member Colleen Handel, Committee Member Christa Mulder, Committee Member Kris Hundertmark, Chair Department o f Biology and Wildlife Paul Layer, Dean College o f Natural Science and Mathematics Michael Castellini, Dean of the Graduate School ABSTRACT Across the Arctic, taller woody shrubs, particularly willow (Salix spp.), birch (Betula spp.), and alder (Alnus spp.), have been expanding rapidly onto tundra. Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity.

    Aculeate Conservation Group/ Hymettus Report for 2006 1. Background to 2006 Research. 1.1 During 2006 a new body, Hymettus Ltd., was constituted. Hymettus will take over and extend the role of the Aculeate Conservation Group. This report deals with research originally agreed at the 2005 ACG Annual Review and funded by English Nature (now also re-incarnated as Natural England), but executed under Hymettus Ltd.. During 2006 work was financially supported by English Nature, Earthwatch, Syngenta and the RSPB in accordance with the relevant Annex a documents, which see for details. 1.2 2005 Projects are reported in the following order of taxonomic group: ants, wasps, bees, other projects. 2. Ant Projects. 2.1 Formica exsecta 2.1.1 At the 2005 Review meeting Stephen Caroll was asked to enquire of the Devon Trust as to whether they would be prepared to consider looking at the possibility of proposing a landscape project for the Bovey Basin which would include the habitat requirements of Formica exsecta and , if so, whether a contribution from the ACG towards the costs of looking at this would be appropriate. 2.1.2 The Trust received this request enthusiastically and have submitted a copy of Andrew Taylor’s (their Officer) Report. Stephen Caroll will be able to bring us up to date with developments at the Review meting. The Report is presented here (appendices may be obtained from Mike Edwards): Landscape-scale habitat work in Devon’s Bovey Basin Report to Hymettus Limited, October 2006 1.

  • Testing Agricultural Impacts on Breeding Ground Food Resources As a Driver of Cuckoo Population Decline
    Testing agricultural impacts on breeding ground food resources as a driver of cuckoo population decline Submitted by Lowell John Mills to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biological Sciences, March 2019 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other university. 1 2 Image: Charles Tyler “The first picture of you, The first picture of summer, Seeing the flowers scream their joy.” - The Lotus Eaters (1983) 3 4 Abstract The common cuckoo Cuculus canorus has undergone a striking divergence in population trend between UK habitats since the 1980s. The breeding population in Scotland – in largely semi-natural open habitat – shows significant increase whereas there has been a significant decline in England. Here breeding numbers have remained stable or increased in semi-natural habitats, while woodland and farmland populations have plummeted. As a brood parasitic bird with a long-distance annual migration, the cuckoo has a unique network of relationships to songbird „hosts‟, prey and habitat; and a disconnection between adult and nestling ecology due to lack of parental care. This thesis investigated the role of breeding ground land-use factors in driving cuckoo population decline. In the first chapter information was synthesised from the literature on potential threats and environmental impacts facing cuckoo populations, which also highlighted knowledge gaps and a basis for hypotheses in later chapters.

  • Moths of Poole Harbour Species List
    Moths of Poole Harbour is a project of Birds of Poole Harbour Moths of Poole Harbour Species List Birds of Poole Harbour & Moths of Poole Harbour recording area The Moths of Poole Harbour Project The ‘Moths of Poole Harbour’ project (MoPH) was established in 2017 to gain knowledge of moth species occurring in Poole Harbour, Dorset, their distribution, abundance and to some extent, their habitat requirements. The study area uses the same boundaries as the Birds of Poole Harbour (BoPH) project. Abigail Gibbs and Chris Thain, previous Wardens on Brownsea Island for Dorset Wildlife Trust (DWT), were invited by BoPH to undertake a study of moths in the Poole Harbour recording area. This is an area of some 175 square kilometres stretching from Corfe Castle in the south to Canford Heath in the north of the conurbation and west as far as Wareham. 4 moth traps were purchased for the project; 3 Mercury Vapour (MV) Robinson traps with 50m extension cables and one Actinic, Ultra-violet (UV) portable Heath trap running from a rechargeable battery. This was the capability that was deployed on most of the ensuing 327 nights of trapping. Locations were selected using a number of criteria: Habitat, accessibility, existing knowledge (previously well-recorded sites were generally not included), potential for repeat visits, site security and potential for public engagement. Field work commenced from late July 2017 and continued until October. Generally, in the years 2018 – 2020 trapping field work began in March/ April and ran on until late October or early November, stopping at the first frost.

  • Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera Species List
    Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera Historical and modern species lists and records - First Edition 2009 T. and D. Pendleton Introduction to Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera First edition 2009 One aspect of recording which has not changed since the 1800’s, is the lack of attention given by Lepidopterists to the site’s micro lepidoptera. Virtually all This publication is aimed at providing an accurate record of all Sherwood Forest micro records sourced from Carr’s book were attributed to R.E. Brameld, who Lepidoptera recorded from the 1800‘s, the 1900’s, post-2000 records and must have spent many hours in the field recording. Without his work, then much completely up to date with the inclusion of the latest records from 2008 and larger gaps would have appeared in the records. As it is, much work is still follows the same format as we have used in the accompanying publication required to record the many leaf-mining species which Sherwood Forest Sherwood Forest Coleoptera - 2009 Edition. undoubtedly holds. It is by no means a complete list and should not be treated as so, but Recent Lepidoptera surveys and recording represents a hopeful start on the way to producing a definitive Sherwood Forest site list, by trying to gather all available Lepidoptera records in one document. A great deal of moth trapping and recording took place at the Visitor Centre during the 1980’s and has provided some very useful data, which at some time This is the first edition of this project and includes traceable public records in the future, will perhaps be used to enable a comparison with more recent and those held privately by local naturalists and our thanks go to those records and numbers.

  • MONITORING REPORT 2020 BILL BUDD It Is with Great Sadness That We Must Report the Death of Bull Budd in Autumn 2020
    Wimbledon and Putney Commons ECOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING REPORT 2020 BILL BUDD It is with great sadness that we must report the death of Bull Budd in autumn 2020. Bill was our much respected, dragonfly and damselfly recorder and a member of the Wildlife and Conservation Forum. As well as recording on the Commons, Bill also worked as a volunteer at the London Natural History Museum for many years and was the Surrey Vice County Dragonfly Recorder. Bill supported our BioBlitz activities and, with others from the Forum, led dedicated walks raising public awareness of the dragonfly and damselfly populations on the Commons. In September 2020 in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the recording and conservation of Odonata, a newly identified dragonfly species found in the Bornean rainforest* was named Megalogomphus buddi. His contributions will be very much missed. * For further information see: https://british-dragonflies.org.uk/dragonfly-named-after-bds-county-dragonfly-recorder-bill-budd/ Dow, R.A. and Price, B.W.

    Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological Society Newsletter Incorporating The Cheshire Moth Group Newsletter February 2003 Number 1008 1 Welcome! Welcome to the latest LCES and CMG newsletter. Originally this issue was planned for Christmas but with pressures of work it had to be delayed – apologies! But there is good news. The 2001 lepidoptera report for VC58 is now complete. This is downloadable from the LCES, CMG and rECOrd web sites. Despite the wintry weather, there are signs of spring in the air. As I write this evening, the trap already contains 4 Pale Brindled Beauty and a Spring Usher and before too long the sallow blossom will be out together with the Quakers and Clouded Drabs. Hopefully this year will be better than the cold, wet, windy summers we seem to have had of late. Field Trips – 2003 Meetings Not much organised so far – if you fancy leading a field trip let me know and I’ll include details next issue. National Moth Night is the 12th April this year. The events we know about are: Events in Cheshire for the National Moth Night in 2003 are still to be arranged. Watch this space! Weather permitting we will try to trap at Pym Chair/Goyt Valley for Red Sword-grass. Please contact Adrian Wander BEFORE travelling. A National Moth Night moth trapping event at Weaver Valley Parkway. Meet at the car park off the A5018 opposite Morrison's Supermarket (SJ656669). Drop in at any time. For further details contact: Brian Jaques on: 01606 891242 Field Trip Reports 29th September: Crimes Lane, Beeston This was an excellent outing and a very informative field trip looking at leaf mines.
