A study of the McKenzie River floodplains, terraces and glacial
outwash plains was undertaken to classify and describe the vegetation
and soils of a previously little studied synecological unit.
During the summer of 1971, 54 analytic vegetation and soil
plots (stands) were studied. Cover and frequency of all trees, shrubs,...
The genus Lichnanthe Burmeister contains eight extant and one
fossil species which are strictly nearctic in distribution. The
subfamily Glaphyrinae, however, is distributed nearly world-wide.
Five species were previously described and three are described as
new herein. All eight extant species are described in detail herein,
synonomies are made current,...
The known biology of Bareogonalos canadensis
(Harrington) is based on literature records of six
collections from three areas in the Pacific Northwest.
The objective of this study was to obtain fundamental
knowledge on the biology of B. canadensis, especially
its distribution, abundance, and host species, as well
as its potential...

Characiform fishes form one of the most diverse freshwater fish clades in the world. Comprising more than 2000 species and distributed primarily in South America and Africa, characiforms vary dramatically in their ecomorphology. However, the evolutionary processes responsible for the immense ecomorphological diversity remains unknown. Recently, a study postulated that...
The lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) is an important groundfish species in both recreational and commercial fisheries of the Northeastern Pacific. It is a large, fast-growing, generalist predator of invertebrates and fishes. In response to concerns that lingcod may limit populations of rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), I compared the diets of 375 adult...
The lack of information regarding the inheritance of the duration and rate of
grain filling, and the possible relationship between grain fill and grain protein
content in wheat prompted this study.
Early maturing Chinese cultivars, 'AI Feng 2' and 'CB 83-52', and late
maturing cultivars adapted to Oregon, 'Stephens' and...
