Foods of Primary Consumers on Cold Desert Shrub-Steppe of Southcentral Idaho

Trophic relationships of rabbits, black-tailed jack rabbits, pronghorn, sheep, and cattle were examined on the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory Site in southcentral Idaho. Grasses were the most important foods of lagomorphs and livestock. Pronghorn depended mostly on basin big sagebrush, common winterfat, and saltbushes. If jack rabbits increase in the future, severe competition for forage with livestock may result. Large portions of the shrub-steppe of Idaho are winter grazed by sheep (Ovis ah-es), cattle (Bos tuurus), and native wild herbivores. Unregulated grazing can lead to poor range condition, poor condition of wild herbivores, and poor livestock performance. Range managers must assess quantitatively the combined impacts of different herbivores on range resources before planning grazing operations. The Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) Site in southcentral Idaho is managed by the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management lets grazing leases for about 60% of the area (Johnson 1978). Sheep and cattle use these areas and each grazes in common with wild herbivores but the domestic animals do not use the same areas. The most important wild herbivores on the site are pronghorn (Antelocapra americana) and rabbits (Sylvilagus spp). Blacktailed jack rabbit (Lepus calijornicus) populations may become periodically important. During the present study jack rabbit population densities were extremely low on the study area. The purpose of this paper is to report potential levels of diet competition between herbivores which use the INEL Site. Since the study area is typical of the shrub-steppe of southern Idaho, the results of this study have potential for guiding range management over wide areas of the northern Great Basin area.

Pedo-ecological conditions of rare plant species in Romania. Tofieldia calyculata L. Wahlbg.

The paper present data's on the pedologycal conditions which preserved the endangered species Tofieldia calyculata L. Wahlbg. on a restricted territory in Valea Morii, near Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania, Romania. Valea Morii represents an isolated point on the distribution map of the species in Europe, and the single point where this species have been preserved until now in Romania. Tofieldia calyculata is integrated hare mainly in communities dominated by Schoenus nigricans.

stones, Satyrion) connoted the organs of generation to Gertrude and her audience; (3) that the name Satyrion (applied by some herbalists to all the orchids), an ancient allusion to a satyr in both mythology and botany, is particularly appropriate in the incestuous kingdom where Hamlet refers to Claudius as a satyr (I. ii. 140); (4) that the insects, amphibians, reptiles, and animals suggested (flies, gnats, frogs, lizards, hares, goats, apes) were a reminder of the loathsome bestiality of copulation apart from legitimate love; and (5) that Serapia's stones (with its reference to the licentious rites practiced in the worship of Serapis in Alexandria and later in Rome) was an indication of rank and gross adultery, the kind Hamlet ascribes to Claudius and Gertrude: Stew'd in corruption, honeying and making love / Over the nasty sty! (III. iv. 93-94). The virgin Ophelia, who in mad distraction sings pitifully of a defiled and abandoned maid, adorns herself with flowers whose sexuality is so apparent that in the wearing of them she appears to bring dishonor upon herself. Laertes rightly prays for more comely flowers:

The effect of host species on the engorgement, molting success, and molted weight of the Gulf Coast tick, Amblyomma maculatum Koch (Acarina: Ixodidae).

Feeding studies were done with the larvae and nymphs of the Gulf Coast tick, Amblyomma maculatum Koch, using the Deer Mouse, Hispid Cotton Rat, Eastern Woodrat, Bobwhite Quail, Black-tailed Jack Rabbit, the Raccoon, and the Opossum as experimental hosts. Engorgement weight, engorgement time, engorgement success, molted weight, molted adult dimensions, and percentage of molting success were determined for similarly aged and treated ticks reared on artificially infested caged hosts. Data were averaged for several hosts of the same species and mean comparisons were made to determine if host species had any effect on parameters measured. Differences associated with quantity and possibly quality of the ingested meal from different host species caused differences in the molted tick weights. The engorgement time and success were host-species dependent, but the percentage of molt was greater than 85% within all host species groups. No difference in the measured dimensions of the adult ticks of similar weight could be attributed to host species.
