This bibliography of insect mycophagy results from a literature search on the ecology of hypogeous fungi. It is hoped that this admittedly incomplete list will provide a nucleus of references for those unfamiliar with the topic. Using the "bracket" fungi (Polyporaceae) as an example, most
of the literature can be...
Pollination ecology may play an important role in the maintenance of selfing in populations of self-compatible hermaphroditic plants where both selfing and outcrossing occur (mixed mating). Behavior and abundance of pollinators can influence the two major modes of selfing; autogamy (selfing within a flower) and geitonogamy (selfing between flowers on...
The mountain pine beetle reached epidemic levels in second-growth 80-yearold ponderosa pine stands on the Ninemile Ranger District in 1969. The
outbreak increased through 1971 and spread over 30,000 acres. Heavy
infestation occurred on about 2,600 acres within this area. A two-stage
survey was used during 1972 and 1973 to...
The eruption of Mt. St. Helens provided the
opportunity to study secondary production of grazing insects in the context of disturbance. Two stream sites were chosen that significantly differed in how their
watersheds were impacted by the eruption. Clearwater Creek was catastrophically disturbed (physical alteration of habitat, loss of riparian...
