Distribution And Seasonal Occurrence Of The Scutelleridae, Corimelaenidae And Cydnidae Of Arkansas, Linda A. Lee, Harvey E. Barton
Distribution And Seasonal Occurrence Of The Scutelleridae, Corimelaenidae And Cydnidae Of Arkansas, Linda A. Lee, Harvey E. Barton
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
A total of 16 genera and 37 species and subspecies of Corimelaenidae, Cydnidae and Scutelleridae is recorded as occurring or possibly occurring in Arkansas. Nine species of Scutelleridae contained in six genera, 13 species and subspecies in three genera of Corimelaenidae ( =Thyreocoridae) and 15 species and subspecies of Cydnidae found in seven genera are reported as occurring or possibly occurring in Arkansas. Twenty-seven species and subspecies contained in 13 genera were collected or recorded from entomological holdings within the state. Two species in two genera were reported in the literature as occurring in Arkansas. Based on distribution records in …

Mensural Discrimination Of The Skulls Of Arkansas Peromyscus, V. Rick Mcdaniel, C. Renn Tumlison, Phil Mclarty
Mensural Discrimination Of The Skulls Of Arkansas Peromyscus, V. Rick Mcdaniel, C. Renn Tumlison, Phil Mclarty
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Twelve parameters were measured on skulls of four species of Peromyscus from Arkansas. Univariate statistical tests, multivariate analyses of variance, and principal axis factor analyses were performed on the data set and/or subsets in a search for species-level discriminating characters. Total length of skull was found to discriminate between skulls of P. maniculatis, P. leucopus, and a combined group of P. attwateri and P. gossypinus. Furthermore, the ratio of interorbital width and length of nasal bone was found to adequately discriminate between skulls of P. attwateri and P. gossypinus.

Abundance And Seasonal Occurrence Of Psorophora Columbiae In A Northeast Arkansas Ricefield Community, Larry A. Olson, Julia A. Huggins
Abundance And Seasonal Occurrence Of Psorophora Columbiae In A Northeast Arkansas Ricefield Community, Larry A. Olson, Julia A. Huggins
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Increased population levels of the dark ricefield mosquito, Psorophora columbiae (Dyar and Knab), have been shown to be associated with rice cultivation in Arkansas and several other states. Four standard New Jersey light traps were operated daily between May 30 and October 2 of 1981 and 1982 to determine the relative abundance and seasonal occurrence of this species in NE Arkansas. The effect of trap distance from nearby rice on the number of adult P. columbiae collected was assessed by comparing weekly totals from 2 traps located within 0.9 km of rice fields with totals from 2 traps situated beyond …
Selection Of Scales For Growth Analysis Of Largemouth Bass, Donald C. Jackson, Raj V. Kilambi
Selection Of Scales For Growth Analysis Of Largemouth Bass, Donald C. Jackson, Raj V. Kilambi
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Scales from four regions of the body of largemouth bass were compared for efficacy in estimating fish length at the time of scale formation and at capture. The scales from above and below the lateral line in the pectoral and caudal peduncle regions yielded intercepts of 64.73, 52.36, 19.77 and 25.81 respectively for the total length-scale radius relationship. These intercept values represent the fish length at the time of scale formation. By the regression of estimated lengths at capture on empirical lengths it was found that the caudal peduncle scales were better suited in predicting fish length.
