Observations Of Captive Rocky Mountain Mule Deer Behavior, Douglas K. Halford, W. John Arthur Iii, A. William Alldredge Jan 1987

Observations Of Captive Rocky Mountain Mule Deer Behavior, Douglas K. Halford, W. John Arthur Iii, A. William Alldredge

Great Basin Naturalist

Observations were made on the behavior of a captive herd of Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus). Comparisons in general behavior patterns were made between captive and wild deer. Similar behavior was exhibited by captive and wild deer. Captive deer (as well as other species) may be useful for study of certain behavioral aspects of their wild counterparts.


Elemental Compartmentalization In Seeds Of Atriplex Triangularis And Atriplex Confertifolia, M. A. Khan, D. J. Weber, W. M. Hess Jan 1987

Elemental Compartmentalization In Seeds Of Atriplex Triangularis And Atriplex Confertifolia, M. A. Khan, D. J. Weber, W. M. Hess

Great Basin Naturalist

Seeds of two halophytes, Atriplex triangularis, which grows in a mesic saline marsh environment, and Atriplex confertifolia, which grows in a xeric desert environment, were analyzed by energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis for the distribution of elements. The highest concentration of sodium, chlorine, potassium, and calcium was present in seed coats of A. triangularis. All of the elements detected were at low concentrations in the endosperm. Embryos contained the highest amount of phosphorus that is probably associated with organophosphate compounds. Potassium was also high in embryos. The total amount of elements in all regions of A. confertifolia was low as compared to …

Effects Of Osmotic Potential, Potassium Chloride, And Sodium Chloride On Germination Of Greasewood (Sarcobatus Vermiculatus), James T. Romo, Marshall R. Haferkamp Jan 1987

Effects Of Osmotic Potential, Potassium Chloride, And Sodium Chloride On Germination Of Greasewood (Sarcobatus Vermiculatus), James T. Romo, Marshall R. Haferkamp

Great Basin Naturalist

Greasewood (Sarcobatus vermiculatus [Hook.] Torr.) (Chenopodiaceae) typically grows on salt-affected soils where its germination requirements may reflect characteristics necessary for establishment in saline environments. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of osmotic potential and specific ions on the germination of seeds from three populations of greasewood. Seeds were germinated at 20 C in solutions of polyethylene glycol with water potentials ranging from –0.3 to –2.2 MPa that contained 0 to 68480 µmol·L–1 sodium chloride (NaCl) or 0 to 53640 µmol·L–1 potassium chloride (KCl). Germination of two populations was reduced by increasing salt concentration …


Robber Flies Of Utah (Diptera: Asilidae), C. Riley Nelson Jan 1987

Robber Flies Of Utah (Diptera: Asilidae), C. Riley Nelson

Great Basin Naturalist

Reported are 158 species of Asilidae (Diptera) in 50 genera from Utah. Keys to subfamilies, genera, and species are given, along with information on seasonal and distributional occurrence in Utah. Seventy-six maps and 56 line drawings show the Utah distribution of each species and illustrate important characters used in the keys. A table summarizes the current status of names used in earlier state lists.


Habitat And Community Relationships Of Cliffrose (Cowania Mexicana Var. Stansburiana) In Central Utah, K. P. Price, J. D. Brotherson Jan 1987

Habitat And Community Relationships Of Cliffrose (Cowania Mexicana Var. Stansburiana) In Central Utah, K. P. Price, J. D. Brotherson

Great Basin Naturalist

Cliffrose (Cowania mexicana var. stansburiana [Torr.] Jepson) community measurements were taken in central Utah. Data revealed a high between-site similarity of 78.5%. Soil analysis for sites showed most macronutrients, and some micronutrients, relatively low. Cover of cliffrose was found to increase with increases in soil magnesium (p ≤ 0.01). Plants growing on the sites have adapted life cycles to exploit moisture and nutrients during seasons of maximum availability. Prevalent species in the community were cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum), cliffrose, madwort (Alyssum alyssoides), and bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum). Annual grasses were the most important life …

Beyond National Concerns: A Limnologist And World Peace, Arthur D. Hasler Jan 1987

Beyond National Concerns: A Limnologist And World Peace, Arthur D. Hasler

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

I have just returned from a four month tour of duty in Germany where I had opportunity to talk with a fair cross section of Germans and to visit some biological laboratories. In Munich I visited the Zoologisches Institut built by Rockefeller for Professor K. van Frisch. It was here van Frisch and his students investigated the problems of sensory physiology: hearing, color vision, smell, taste, "Schreckstoff" in fish; here also was produced a classic work in animal behavior, "Die 'Sprache' der Bienen," an experimental analysis of the methods of communication among bees. This Institut is badly bombed; only the …
