Habitat associations of riparian beetles (Coleoptera) at Big Beaver Creek Research Natural Area, North Cascades National Park, Washington

Creator:: LaBonte, James R.
Abstract:: Beetle diversity and habitat associations of five prevalent riparian plant communities were examined along the lower reaches of Big Beaver Creek Research Natural Area, North Cascades National Park, Washington. These communities were defined by dominant tree species, and included Alder Swamps, Cedar-Hemlock Forests, Douglas-fir Forests, Gravel Bars, and Willow-Sedge Swamps....

A systematic study of the genus Phytocoris Fallén (Heteroptera:Miridae) in western North America

Creator:: Stonedahl, Gary Michael
Abstract:: The western Nearctic species of the genus Phytocoris Fallen were taxonomically revised. Over 15,000 specimens were examined. Information concerning host plant associations and distributions was compiled and summarized for use by future researchers. External morphological features and characters of the male genitalia were used to distinguish species. The genital tubercles...

Revision of the genus Platylygus (Heteroptera: Miridae)

Creator:: Equihua-Martinez, Armando
Abstract:: The genus Platylygus Van Duzee was erected in 1915 and revised by Kelton and Knight in 1970 describing 26 new species from United State and Mexico. Despite this prior revision, taxonomic problems have been encountered with the use of the keys and in the identification given the close similarity among...

Biology and adult variability in an Oregon population of Leptarctiacaliforniae (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae)

Creator:: Mays, David Lee
Abstract:: Leptarctia californiae (Walker) was studied on clear and semi-forested southern slopes in the Coast Range Mountains of Benton County, Oregon. The spring of 1965 had an unusually long warm period (21 days) resulting in adult emergence approximately 25 days earlier than in the cooler spring of 1966. Peak flight activity...

Riparian and adjacent upslope beetle communities along a third order stream in the western Cascade Mountain Range, Oregon

Creator:: Brenner, Gregory John
Abstract:: Monitoring wildlife habitats has become important to forest ecosystem management because it provides valuable information about the response of forests and their species to harvest practices, impacts from recreational use, conservation efforts, and natural and human-caused disturbances. Monitoring is a complex task that requires a variety of abiotic and biotic...

A revision of the black grass bug genus Irbisia Reuter (Heteroptera:Miridae)

Creator:: Schwartz, Michael David
Abstract:: The black grass bug genus Irbisia Reuter was revised. Over 18,000 specimens were examined and information concerning the biology, host plant and distributional relationships of the species was compiled. In addition to external characters, the male claspers and vesica, and the female dorsal libiate plate of the bursa copulatrix and...

Taxonomy and evolution of the Orthotyline genus Lopidea (Heteroptera: miridae)

Creator:: Asquith, Adam
Abstract:: The genus Lopidea Uhler is revised for America north of Mexico. The relationship of Lopidea to other orthotyline genera is discussed and it is proposed that the genus Ilnacora Reuter is the sister group of Lopidea. Forty-eight species of Lopidea are recognized in North America, one of which is described...
