Orphaned By Black Hawk's Warriors, Albert Winkler
Orphaned By Black Hawk's Warriors, Albert Winkler
Faculty Publications
William D. Kuhre was orphaned at a young age and grew up having few recollections of his parents. William's parents had joined the Mormon Church and moved to the small town of Ephraim, Utah in 1862. War broke out with the Ute Indians in 1865, after several years of increasingly hostile interactions. While the town of Ephraim was protected by a large stone wall, families had to leave the protection to collect firewood and harvest crops. One unfortunate day, while William’s parents were gathering potatoes outside the city wall, a band of Black Hawk’s men arrived and killed them, leaving …
Notes On The Reproductive Biology Of Zigadenus Paniculatus, A Toxic Range Plant, V. J. Tepedino
Notes On The Reproductive Biology Of Zigadenus Paniculatus, A Toxic Range Plant, V. J. Tepedino
Great Basin Naturalist
Zigadenus paniculatus is a toxic plant common on sagebrush foothills at middle elevations in the western United States. Plants produce several racemes from a single stalk. Flowering commences at the base of each raceme and proceeds upwards. The terminal raceme begins blooming first and is followed by lower racemes in sequential order. Flowers are markedly protandrous and incapable of autogamy. Observations do not support the idea that apomixis is a viable reproductive strategy. Plants are mostly self-incompatible; a few seeds were produced from geitonogamous hand pollinations. The pollen/ovule ratio was high, also suggesting outcrossing as the predominant mode of sexual …
Summer Food Habits Of Coyotes In Central Wyoming, Joseph Tucker Springer, J. Steven Smith
Summer Food Habits Of Coyotes In Central Wyoming, Joseph Tucker Springer, J. Steven Smith
Great Basin Naturalist
Summer food habits of coyotes (Canis latrans) were investigated on a 3100-km2 area in central Wyoming, divided into one deer-use area and five non-deer areas. Analysis of 404 scats (fecal samples) revealed an overall average of 63 percent occurrence of native ungulates, 63 percent leporids, 46 percent rodents, 14 percent livestock, and 11 percent birds. Pronghorn (Antilocapra Americana) was the ungulate most frequently consumed, occurring in about 87 percent of the scats. Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) occurred in only 8 percent, and in 5 percent the native ungulate remains were not identifiable beyond …
Feeding Interrelations Of Native Fishes In A Sonoran Desert Stream, Donald C. Schreiber, W. L. Minckley
Feeding Interrelations Of Native Fishes In A Sonoran Desert Stream, Donald C. Schreiber, W. L. Minckley
Great Basin Naturalist
Native fishes in Aravaipa Creek, Arizona, cropped foods proportional to abundance of those foods within the system. Ephemeropteran nymphs and adults comprised the major prey of 5 of 7 fishes (Gila robusta, Meda fulgida, Rhinichthys osculus, Tiaroga cobitis, and Catostomus insignis). The omnivorous Agosia chrysogaster ate almost as many nymphal mayflies as did the carnivores. Pantosteus clarki was herbivorous, taking animals only when they were abundant. When ephemeropterans decreased in abundance, a shift by some fish species occurred to other locally or seasonally abundant items. Other fishes continued to feed upon the same foods throughout the year. Abundance …
History And Status Of The Franklin's Gull On Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon, Carroll D. Littlefield, Steven P. Thompson
History And Status Of The Franklin's Gull On Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon, Carroll D. Littlefield, Steven P. Thompson
Great Basin Naturalist
Franklin's Gulls first arrived in southeast Oregon in 1943, but the first nest was not located until 1948. From 1949 to 1964 gull numbers showed annual fluctuations. An increase began in 1965 and continued through 1980. By 1980 an estimated 2500 Franklin's Gulls were nesting on Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Harney County, Oregon. The species arrives in April and nesting begins by 1 June. Average nest and egg measurements were similar to those from other areas within the species range.

Electrophoresis Of Isoenzymes Of 16 Western Shrubs: Technique Development, R. L. Leonard, E. D. Mcarthur, D. J. Weber, B. W. Wood
Great Basin Naturalist
Wildland shrubs have gained considerable attention in recent years due to increasing recognition of their values as animal feed, as wildlife habitat, and for land reclamation. Better management of the shrub resource will be possible through clearer taxonomic identification and better understanding of phylogenetic relationships. This study applied polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and further developed this technique to address genetic relationships among 16 paired shrub species (genera: Artemisia, Chrysothamnus, Atriplex, Ceratoides, Sarcobatus, Purshia, Cowania, and Cercocarpus [Compositae, Chenopodiaceae, Rosaceae]). Cluster analysis of similarity values for total protein and 14 isoenzyme systems gave patterns of species relationships expected from classical morphological grounds …

Grazing Impacts On Sagebrush Communities Of Central Utah, Jack D. Brotherson, W. Todd Brotherson
Grazing Impacts On Sagebrush Communities Of Central Utah, Jack D. Brotherson, W. Todd Brotherson
Great Basin Naturalist
Twenty-three study sites were established in the sagebrush communities bordering Utah Lake. Relic (ungrazed) and grazed stands were represented in the sample. Differences in species composition, vegetation, and soil characteristics were assessed. Major differences in species composition and vegetative characteristics were due to the influence of grazing. Major changes were loss of native perennial grass cover, and increases in cover from introduced annual species. Differences in the soil characteristics were due to habitat rather than grazing influences.
Coyote-Badger Associations, Philip N. Lehner
Coyote-Badger Associations, Philip N. Lehner
Great Basin Naturalist
Four observations made in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, indicate that coyote–badger associations are best considered as phoretic (accidental and nonobligatory) rather than a form of social symbiosis as has been previously suggested.

Pocket Gophers (Thomomys Talpoides) In Successional Stages Of Spruce-Fir Forest In Idaho, Jerry H. Scrivner, H. Duane Smith
Pocket Gophers (Thomomys Talpoides) In Successional Stages Of Spruce-Fir Forest In Idaho, Jerry H. Scrivner, H. Duane Smith
Great Basin Naturalist
This study examined (1) the relative abundance of the pocket gopher (Thomomys talpoides) in four successive stages (1–10, 11–39, 40–79, and 80+ years following disturbance) of spruce-fir forest; (2) the relationship between number of gopher sign (mounds and earth plugs) with gopher density; and (3) a method of sampling pocket gopher populations using a 500 by 4 m strip transect. The number of gopher mounds was significantly correlated with the number of earth plugs. Data were pooled and a categorical log linear analysis used to test for significant differences in pocket gopher sign between the four successive stages. …
Bird Community Composition In Relation To Habitat And Season In Betatakin Canyon, Navajo National Monument, Arizona, Jack D. Brotherson, Lee A. Szyska, William E. Evenson
Bird Community Composition In Relation To Habitat And Season In Betatakin Canyon, Navajo National Monument, Arizona, Jack D. Brotherson, Lee A. Szyska, William E. Evenson
Great Basin Naturalist
Bird species density, diversity, and species richness in relation to habitat and seasonal variations were studied in the Betatakin Canyon area of Navajo National Monument, Arizona. The two most prominent habitat types are a riparian forest deep in the canyon bottom and a mature pinyon-juniper woodland on the mesas and slopes above the canyon. One hundred thirty-five species of birds were encountered during the study and recorded by season and habitat. The avifauna assemblages demonstrate definite habitat selection into groups associated with the riparian and pinyon-juniper woodland communities. Diversity, density, and species richness were greatest in the riparian habitat during …

The Invertebrate Fauna Of The Caves Of The Uinta Mountains, Northeastern Utah, Stewart B. Peck
Great Basin Naturalist
Seven large caves in the Uinta Mountains, Utah, were surveyed for their invertebrate faunas. Thirty-eight species were found, and 30 of these are typical cave inhabitants. Diptera are the predominant group. Cave-restricted species are an amphipod, two diplurans, and possibly a Rhagidia mite. The caves were probablv uninhabitable in the past glacial because of severe periglacial environmental conditions, and the faunas have moved into the present cave sites since deglaciation of the Uintas.
Time Budgets Of Wyoming Ground Squirrels, Spermophilus Elegans, David A. Zegers
Time Budgets Of Wyoming Ground Squirrels, Spermophilus Elegans, David A. Zegers
Great Basin Naturalist
Time budget of free-living adult Spermophilus elegans differed significantly from that of juveniles in the Front Range of the Rockies during 1974–1975. No differences were found between males and females. Hour of day, day since emergence, air temperature, cloud cover, and presence of predators all correlated with the frequency of various components of the time budget.
The 1900 Invasion Of Alien Plants Into Southern Idaho, Dana L. Yensen
The 1900 Invasion Of Alien Plants Into Southern Idaho, Dana L. Yensen
Great Basin Naturalist
The European annual plants Salsola iberica. Sisymbrium altissimum, Descurainia sophia, and Bromus tectorum invaded southern Idaho about 1900 and spread very rapidly into native plant communities damaged or eliminated by binning, abusive grazing, and agricultural clearing. Historic photographs reveal that the sites of initial invasion were waterway margins, railroad rights-of-way, road shoulders, city streets, agricultural areas, and construction sites. By 1915, these plants were widespread and abundant. Burning and grazing fostered their spread and dominance on millions of acres in southern Idaho.
Diets Of Sympatric Red Foxes And Coyotes In Southeastern Idaho, Jeffrey S. Green, Jerran T. Flinders
Diets Of Sympatric Red Foxes And Coyotes In Southeastern Idaho, Jeffrey S. Green, Jerran T. Flinders
Great Basin Naturalist
Scats of sympatric red foxes and coyotes from the upper Snake River Plain of southeastern Idaho were analyzed for composition. Rodent remains in general and those of cricetid mice in particular occurred more frequently in scats of red foxes during all seasons of the year than any other food items identified. Scats of coyotes differed significantly in content from scats of red foxes during winter and contained primarily pygmy rabbit remains. In summer, remains of pygmy rabbits, sheep, ground squirrels, yellow-bellied marmots, arthropods, and vegetation were formed more frequently in scats of coyotes and remains of cricetid mice occurred more …
