A New Variety Of Centaurium Namophilum (Gentianaceae) From The Great Basin, C. Rose Broome Jun 1981

A New Variety Of Centaurium Namophilum (Gentianaceae) From The Great Basin, C. Rose Broome

Great Basin Naturalist

An expression of Centaurium namophilum (Gentianaceae), long confused with C. exaltatum in the Great Basin of the western United States, is described and designated as var. nevadense. It may be separated from the Death Valley region endemic, var. namophilum, by its broader leaves, its diffuse corymbose cyme, the ultimate peduncles that are longer than the flowers, its medium to deep rose pink corolla, and its stamens that equal or exceed the style and are only slightly exserted from the corolla-tube. The var. nevadense occurs from eastern California to western Utah, and from southeastern Oregon and adjacent Idaho south to the …


The Invertebrate Fauna Of The Caves Of The Uinta Mountains, Northeastern Utah, Stewart B. Peck Jun 1981

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.


Evaluating The Relationship Between Mule Deer Pellet-Group Data And Available Winter Range, Using Landsat Imagery, John W. Wyckoff Jun 1981

Evaluating The Relationship Between Mule Deer Pellet-Group Data And Available Winter Range, Using Landsat Imagery, John W. Wyckoff

Great Basin Naturalist

In this study, mule deer population trend data (deer-days-use/hectare) were statistically analyzed with range area data that were extracted from LANDSAT satellite imagery. The remote sensing techniques developed use multidate, winter images of an area in central Utah. Snow-covered areas and vegetational areas mapped from the imagery were composited into 26 maps representing the approximate winter range available to mule deer on 26 dates over a five-year period (1972–1977). Utah State Division of Wildlife Resources pellet-group transect data were statistically analyzed with range data measured from the satellite imagery. Range area accounted for a fairly large proportion of the variation …


Time Budgets Of Wyoming Ground Squirrels, Spermophilus Elegans, David A. Zegers Jun 1981

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 Jun 1981

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.

A Sagebrush Wilt Disease Of Unknown Cause, David L. Nelson, Richard G. Krebill Jun 1981

A Sagebrush Wilt Disease Of Unknown Cause, David L. Nelson, Richard G. Krebill

Great Basin Naturalist

A sagebrush wilt disease is causing severe damage to Forest Service uniform shrub garden plantings in Utah. Plants within most species of the section Tridentatae express disease symptoms and may die within several months. Varying degrees of susceptibility are evident within and between species. Modification of the soil environment through past agricultural use may dispose these wildland shrubs to associated potentially pathogenic fungi.


Diets Of Sympatric Red Foxes And Coyotes In Southeastern Idaho, Jeffrey S. Green, Jerran T. Flinders Jun 1981

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 …


A Checklist Of The Alpine Vascular Flora Of The Teton Range, Wyoming, With Notes On Biology And Habitat Preferences, John R. Spence, Richard J. Shaw Jun 1981

A Checklist Of The Alpine Vascular Flora Of The Teton Range, Wyoming, With Notes On Biology And Habitat Preferences, John R. Spence, Richard J. Shaw

Great Basin Naturalist

A checklist of the vascular flora of the alpine zone (treeless vegetation above 9500 feet or 2900 m) of the Teton Range is presented. For each of the 216 species, six attributes are listed: flower color and shape, pollination mode, life form, habitat preference, and whether each species is found in the Arctic. White and yellow flowered species are most common, and zoophilous species greatly predominate over anemophilous and apomictic species. Perennial/biennial herbs are the most common life form. Common habitats in the alpine zone include dry and wet meadows, bogs, debris accumulations, and cliffs and rock faces. Arctic species …


Dispersal And Dispersion Of An Introduced Population Of Sylvilagus Floridanus, B. J. Verts, Leslie N. Carraway Jun 1981

Dispersal And Dispersion Of An Introduced Population Of Sylvilagus Floridanus, B. J. Verts, Leslie N. Carraway

Great Basin Naturalist

Eastern cottontail rabbits, Sylvilagus floridanus, introduced into Linn County, Oregon, in 1941, occupied 378.1 km2 in 1953, 637.7 km2 in 1970, and 1.501.9 km2 in 1980. Hiatuses within the range were related to absence of adequate coverts on conifer-dominated ridge tops and in intensively cultivated areas. Flooding of riparian zones seven times during the first 12 years after introduction and three times during the 17-year interval between the first and second surveys (especially the devastating floods of December 1964 and January 1965) was believed to have retarded dispersal or periodically reduced the area occupied. Flood-control dams …

On The Typification Of Salvia Dorrii (Lamiaceae), Jeffrey L. Strachan, James L. Reveal

Great Basin Naturalist

The type of Salvia dorrii is shown to represent the Great Basin phase of the species (currently called subsp. argentea) rather than the Mojave Desert expression as implied by Epling and others. The Mojave Desert phase is hereby renamed S. dorrii var. pilosa (A. Gray) Strachan & Reveal.


Parasites Of Indochinese Refugees Entering Utah County, Utah: A Two-Year Survey, Richard A. Heckmann, Bruce A. Coleman Jun 1981

Parasites Of Indochinese Refugees Entering Utah County, Utah: A Two-Year Survey, Richard A. Heckmann, Bruce A. Coleman

Great Basin Naturalist

A survey of parasites from 39 stool specimens taken from 36 Indochinese refugees who are now living in Utah County, Utah, indicated representative intestinal helminths (worms), and protozoans upon clinical examination. Approximately 75% of the stools contained nematodes, and 55.5% had protozoans. Parasites found were Entamoeba coli, Chilomastix mesnili, Endolimax nana, Giardia lamblia, lodamoeba buetschlii, Clonorchis sinensis, Trichuris trichiura, Ascaris lumbricoides, and Plasinodium vivax. The most common protozoan observed was Entamoeba coli (1979 and 1980) while the most common helminths were Ascaris lumbricoides) (1979) and Clonorchis sinensis (1980). These data were comparable to studies of refugees at two other …


Some Spatial And Behavioral Features Of The Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrel, Tim W. Clark Jun 1981

Some Spatial And Behavioral Features Of The Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrel, Tim W. Clark

Great Basin Naturalist

Some relationships between home range, agonistic behavior, and reproductive patterns in thirteen-lined ground squirrels were investigated in Laramie Plains, Wyoming (August 1966–April 1969). Population size and densities fluctuated seasonally and annually. Adult male (N = 7) home ranges averaged 0.24 ha and were smaller than those of the female (N = 9), which averaged 0.35 ha. Agonistic interactions were more frequent during the natal period (late May–June) than during the breeding-gestation period (mid April–May). Most squirrels (86 percent) shared capture sites and had overlapping home ranges. However, a certain degree of spacing existed because of agonistic behavior.


The Effect Of Elevated Temperature On Copper Toxicity To The Thermophilic Alga Synechococcus Lividus (Cyanophyceae), L. E. Riley, M. L. Ostrofsky Jun 1981

The Effect Of Elevated Temperature On Copper Toxicity To The Thermophilic Alga Synechococcus Lividus (Cyanophyceae), L. E. Riley, M. L. Ostrofsky

Great Basin Naturalist

The hypothesis that temperature influences the toxicity of copper to thermophilic Cyanophyceae was tested in a laboratory study with Synechococcus lividus. This thermophile was tested at copper concentrations from 0 to 200 µg/1, and temperatures from 40.0 to 50.0 C. It was found that an interaction between increased copper and temperature significantly decreased the rate of carbon assimilation, chlorophyll content, and photosynthetic efficiency.


A New Pulvinate Eriogonum (Polygonaceae) From Utah, James L. Reveal Jun 1981

A New Pulvinate Eriogonum (Polygonaceae) From Utah, James L. Reveal

Great Basin Naturalist

A new species of pulvinate wild buckwheat, Eriogonum soredium (Polygonaceae, Eriogonoideae) is described from near-barren limestone slopes in the Grampian Hill area near Frisco, Beaver County, Utah. The new species is outwardly similar to E. shockleyi S. Wats, but may be readily distinguished by its glabrous (not pubescent) flowers and fruits, generally smaller leaves, more numerous involucres per head, turbinate (not campanulate) involucres with 5, rarely 4 (not 5 to 10) teeth, and the smaller flowers.
