Millipeds (Arthropoda: Diplopoda) Of The Ark-La-Tex. Ii. Distributional Records For Some Species Of Western And Central Arkansas And Easter And Southeastern Oklahoma, Chris T. Mcallister, Rowland M. Shelley, James T. Mcallister Iii

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

We collected millipeds between November 2001 and March 2002 at several sites in the Ouachita Provinces of western (Garland, Hot Spring, Pike, and Polk counties) and central Arkansas (Pulaski County) and the Ouachita and Kiamichi Provinces of southeastern Oklahoma (LeFlore and McCurtain counties). The following millipeds were found: Eurymerodesmus dubius, Auturus louisianus louisianus, Pseudopolydesmus pinetorum, and Cambala minor in Garland County; Eurymerodesmus sp., A. I. louisianus, P. pinetorum, and juveniles of the family Parajulidae (tribe Aniulini) from Hot Spring County; E. dubius, A. I. louisianus, and juveniles of the family Cleidogonidae from Pike County; Brachycybe lecontei, A. I. louisianus, Abacion …

Beetle Diversity In An Eastern Cottonwood (Populus Deltoides Bartr.) Plantation And Adjacent Bottomland Hardwood Forest In Southeastern Arkansas, Michael D. Warriner, T. Evan Nebeker, Steven A. Tucker Jan 2002

Beetle Diversity In An Eastern Cottonwood (Populus Deltoides Bartr.) Plantation And Adjacent Bottomland Hardwood Forest In Southeastern Arkansas, Michael D. Warriner, T. Evan Nebeker, Steven A. Tucker

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Within the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV),some lands cleared of bottomland hardwood forests have the potential to return to forest as a result of private sector and government interests in Populus cultivation. Specifically, monoculture plantings of eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr.) represent an important component of many recent afforestation efforts in the region. The impact establishment of such monocultures will have on native insect communities in the LMAV is relatively unknown. To evaluate this, beetle (Coleoptera) diversity, abundance, and functional distribution were examined within an intensively managed eastern cottonwood plantation and nearby bottomland hardwood forest in southeastern Arkansas. Beetles were …


Millipeds (Arthropoda: Diplopoda) Of The Ark-La-Tex. I. New Distributional And State Records For Seven Counties Of The West Gulf Coastal Plain Of Arkansas, Chris T. Mcallister, Chris S. Harris, Rowland M. Shelley, James T. Mcallister Iii Jan 2002

Millipeds (Arthropoda: Diplopoda) Of The Ark-La-Tex. I. New Distributional And State Records For Seven Counties Of The West Gulf Coastal Plain Of Arkansas, Chris T. Mcallister, Chris S. Harris, Rowland M. Shelley, James T. Mcallister Iii

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Unlike the Diplopoda of the Ozark Mountains region of north Arkansas, the millipeds of the West Gulf Coastal Plain of the state are poorly known. During the winter months of 2001-2002, we collected millipeds in four counties (Hempstead, Lafayette, Little River, and Miller) of southwest Arkansas and three counties (Columbia, Nevada, and Ouachita) of south Arkansas. We found the following species/subspecies Eurymerodesmus dubuis and Pseudopolydesmus pinetorum from Hempstead County; E. birdi birdi, E. mundus, Oxidus gracilis, and Pseudopolydesmus ? minor from Lafayette County; Aniulus (Hakiulus) diversifrons diversifrons, P. pinetorum, and a possible new species of Tiganogona in Little River County; …
