A revision of the North American species of Pactopus Leconte and Trixagus Kugelann (Coleoptera: Throscidae)

Creator:: Yensen, Arthur Eric
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to find means of separating the morphologically similar species of North American Trixagus and to bring together information on Trixagus and Pactopus. A key to separate the world's eight genera of extant Throscidae is presented for the first time. A key to the five species of...

Effects of synthetic 9-oxodectrans-2-enoic acid on the foraging activities of honey bees (Apis mellifera L.)

Creator:: Youngs, Lorna C.
Abstract:: An experimental formulation of 9 -oxodec-trans-2-enoic acid, the major component of honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) queen pheromone, was tested for its effect on worker foraging behavior in the pollination of sweet cherries (Prunus avium L. ). The test formulation consisted of a solid beeswax cylinder impregnated with a measured...

Reproductive biology of the European pine shoot moth Rhyacionia buoliana (Schiffermüller) (Lepidoptera : Olethreutidae), with special reference to mating behavior, sex attraction, and fecundity

Creator:: Daterman, Gary E.
Abstract:: Major objectives of the study involved development of a laboratory procedure to obtain mating, determining characteristics of female sex attraction, and determination of the effects of temperature and humidity on mating and fecundity. The second of two methods devised to obtain mating, "the vertical airflow technique," was convenient to employ...

Abundance and community composition of arboreal spiders : the relative importance of habitat structure, prey availability and competition

Creator:: Halaj, Juraj
Abstract:: This work examined the importance of structural complexity of habitat, availability of prey, and competition with ants as factors influencing the abundance and community composition of arboreal spiders in western Oregon. In 1993, I compared the spider communities of several host-tree species which have different branch structure. I also assessed...

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...

The effects of intraspecific plant competition and insect herbivory of ragwort (Senecio jacobaea) populations

Creator:: Fitzpatrick, Greg S.
Abstract:: I conducted field studies to determine the effect of insect herbivory and intraspecific plant competition on ragwort Senecio jacobaea. The objectives were to determine the patterns and causes in the distribution of the ragwort flea beetle Longitarsus jacobaeae foraging among varying densities of ragwort, to measure the behavioral and numerical...

Insect community composition and physico-chemical processes in summer-dry streams of Western Oregon

Creator:: Dieterich, Martin
Abstract:: Seven streams, one of them permanent, were studied in western Oregon, USA. The research was designed to assess the value of summer-dry headwaters for conservation oriented landscape management. Streams were categorized primarily according to exposure (forest versus meadow sites) and secondarily according to flow duration (ephemeral = short-flow versus temporary...
