A New Genus, Ileopeltus, Related To Chlorotettix (Homoptera: Cicadellidae), Paul S. Cwikla Oct 1988

A New Genus, Ileopeltus, Related To Chlorotettix (Homoptera: Cicadellidae), Paul S. Cwikla

Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs

On the basis of their unique genitalic characters, the Neotropical leafhopper species previously treated in the genus Doleranus Ball are placed in a new genus, Ileopeltus. Twelve species are treated, including six described as new. A key to the species and a cladistic hypothesis using Chlorotettix Van Duzee as the outgroup are presented. The new species of Ileopeltus include: nanocanthus (Panama), dorsalus and clavatus (Brazil and Venezuela), ventriculus and haplus (Brazil), and blockeri (Venezuela).


Cutting The Loss From Federal Irrigation Water Subsidies, B. Gardner Delworth, Ray G. Huffaker Oct 1988

Cutting The Loss From Federal Irrigation Water Subsidies, B. Gardner Delworth, Ray G. Huffaker

Faculty Publications

The Bureau of Reclamation recently announced that its prime mission since 1902-building dams to make the desert bloom in the American West-is pretty much complete. While never really admitting that its newer projects have been economically infeasible, Bureau management has at last recognized that the days of the big public water project are gone. The Bureau now plans to turn its attention and resources to other more pressing problems, such as helping other agencies with construction projects needed to cope with hazardous waste.

Studies Of A Uniparental Form Of Aphytis Vandenboschi (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), A Parasite Of The San Jose Scale In Northern Utah, Manas Titayavan, Donald W. Davis Jul 1988

Studies Of A Uniparental Form Of Aphytis Vandenboschi (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), A Parasite Of The San Jose Scale In Northern Utah, Manas Titayavan, Donald W. Davis

Great Basin Naturalist

The only San Jose scale parasite found at two sites in northern Utah was a uniparental form of Aphytis vandenboschi DeBach & Rosen. Parasites overwintered as pupae and were attracted to San Jose scale pheromone traps. Mature female scales were most heavily parasitized, although some prepupal males and instar II female scales were attacked. Only partial development occurred between 11.7 and 18.3 C, and fecundity was reduced between 28 and 31 C. Based on 11.7 C, 460 degree days were required in the field and 410 degree days at 26 C in the laboratory per generation. By the end of …

Selection Of Microhabitat By The Red-Backed Vole, Clethrionomys Gapperi, Alice P. Wywialowski, Graham W. Smith Apr 1988

Selection Of Microhabitat By The Red-Backed Vole, Clethrionomys Gapperi, Alice P. Wywialowski, Graham W. Smith

Great Basin Naturalist

Clethrionomys gapperi were captured in microhabitats with greater densities of overall cover than at noncapture or random sites within the study area. Variables describing cover density and distance from free water were selected in a discriminant function analysis to differentiate between vole capture and noncapture sites. Vole capture sites had greater amounts of cover within 4 dm above ground surface and were further from standing water than noncapture sites. The preferential use by C. gapperi of microhabitats with greater densities of cover is in agreement with laboratory and field assessments of habitat use reported in the literature.

Prevention And Health Economics, Harold H. Gardner Feb 1988

Prevention And Health Economics, Harold H. Gardner

Faculty Publications

The relationship between doctors and patients in the medical and health field is a topic of recurrent discussion today. The topic is of immense interest because of the questions raised about value received for services purchased and because of the large amount of economic resource consumed. The size of the stakes are such that the debate will grow in the near future until some solution is found to remedy the value and cost for service dilemma.
