The Present Distribution and Status of the Eastern Woodrat, Neotomoa floridana, in Indiana

Although the genus Neotoma is best represented in southwestern United States, the eastern woodrat... more Although the genus Neotoma is best represented in southwestern United States, the eastern woodrat, Neotoma floridana, has a rather widespread distribution in both western and eastern United States. The species occurs as far west as Colorado and in the east from extreme southern Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and New York south to Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia and Florida. It is absent along the coast from New Jersey to central South Carolina and Georgia. The presence of N. floridana in Indiana was not documented until 1930 (Hickie and Harrison 1930) although there were references to what were probably woodrats as early as 1872 (Cope 1872,

The Distribution of hte Smoky Shrew, Sorex Fumeus, and the Pygmy Shrew mIcrosorex hoyi, in Indiana with Notes on the Distribution of Other Shews

Introduction The presence of the Smoky Shrew, Sorex fumeus, and the Pygmy Shrew, Microsorex hoyi,... more Introduction The presence of the Smoky Shrew, Sorex fumeus, and the Pygmy Shrew, Microsorex hoyi, in Indiana was first documented by Caldwell, Smith and Whitaker (1982). The presence in Indiana of these species was suspected based on the continuous nature of the physiographic ecological region from northern Kentucky to southern Indiana. Microsorex occurs from Alaska through Canada and into the United States as far south as Colorado and Georgia (Diersing 1980). Sorex fumeus occurs from southeastern Canada through the northeastern United States to the mountains of Georgia and west across two-thirds of Kentucky (Hall 1981, Caldwell and Bryan 1982). The ranges of the two species overlap extensively in the eastern United States.

Miscellaneous Notes on Amby stoma texanum in Vigo County, Indiana

Introduction Ambystoma texanum, the small-mouth salamander, was studied extensively between 1974 ... more Introduction Ambystoma texanum, the small-mouth salamander, was studied extensively between 1974 and 1980 in Vigo County, Indiana. These salamanders congregate in temporary breeding ponds in early spring (Cook, 1964; Bailey, 1943). It is believed that Ambystoma spp. migrate above ground at night into the ponds (Taylor, 1972; Shoop, 1965), and that moisture and temperature together act as stimuli to migration (Blanchard, 1930; Wright and Allen, 1909). The purpose of this study was to gain an understanding of the movements of the small-mouth salamander during the breeding period and to determine the effects of temperature and precipitation upon migration. Methods Salamanders were collected at four sites in Vigo County, here referred to as Dave's Pond, Ambystoma Pond, Scaphiopus Pond and the Milwaukee Railroad embankment, in the early springs of 1974, 1976, 1978 and 1980. The first three ponds are in the uplands about 5-10 miles NE of Terre Haute. The railroad embankment is in the Wabash floodplain. Included in this study area is a breeding pond, but also, large numbers of salamanders live along the embankment itself, and numbers can often be caught under the old ties strewn along the tracks. This gave us a rather unique opportunity to collect information on this species during the non-breeding season The animals were collected in minnow traps, along drift fences and, in 1980, in a specialized can trap set in the banks of two ponds (Ambystoma Pond, Railroad embankment), and under the ties (RR tracks). The drift fences consisted of x k " mesh hardware cloth 8" high and of various lengths. Sunken bottle traps were placed along their lengths. These fences were established at varying distances

Protomyobia (Acari: Myobiidae) Species Groups and the Brevisetosa Complex of Mites on North American Shrews (Mammalia: Soricidae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1988

Relationships of the brevisetosa group of mites of the genus Protomyobia (Myobiidae) are analyzed... more Relationships of the brevisetosa group of mites of the genus Protomyobia (Myobiidae) are analyzed, and three new species are described: P. quasionoi on Sorex trowbridgii Baird, P. oregonensis on S. vagrans Baird, and P. atophyracis on S. bendirii (Merriam). This brings the number of species in this group to four, all in North America. Cladistic analysis shows that the North American Protomyobia species now fall into two groups, the americana group ( P. americana and P. panamensis on Cryptotis parva (Say) and P. orophila and P. blarinae on Blarina brevicauda (Say)); and the brevisetosa group. The brevisetosa group includes three weakly defined subgroups—the brevisetosa subgroup ( brevisetosa, atophyracis , n. sp., oregonensis , n. sp., and quasionoi , n. sp.), the onoi subgroup ( P. onoi and P. indianensis ), and the claparedei subgroup ( P. claparedei ).

Two New Myocoptidae (Acari, Astigmata) from North American Rodents

Myocoptes neotomae sp. n. differs from M. musculi by the absence of scales posterior to the hysteronotal shield, by the greater length of 12 as compared to d2 in the female, and by the much shorter dl and d2 and the longer penis in the male. Trichoecius gettingeri differs from T. tenax by the shorter epimeres Ill, the much shorter setae li, dl and d2, the absence of 12 in the female, the absence of dorsal striations, the poorly developed epimeres I-Il and the small size of male legs IV.
