[Book review] Descriptions of thirty-two new species of birds from the Hawaiian Islands: Part I. Non-Passeriformes [and] Part II. Passeriformes
Thane K. Pratt
1992, The Auk (109) 945-947
Perhaps the great appeal of paleontological studies is that they inspire visions of past worlds richer and more interesting than our own. Yet, no matter how fascinating, these fossil creatures and their environments manifest a remoteness measured by more than geological time. But what if bones tell the story of...
Seroprevalence of Lyme disease in gray wolves from Minnesota and Wisconsin
A. Thieking, S.M. Goyal, R.F. Bey, K.I. Loken, L.D. Mech, R.P. Thiel, T.P. O’Connor
1992, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (28) 177-182
To determine the seroprevalence of Lyme disease in gray wolves (Canis lupus) from various counties of Minnesota and Wisconsin (USA), 589 serum samples were collected from 528 wolves from 1972 to 1989. An indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test was used to detect the presence of antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi. Titers...
Effects of habitat on avian productivity in abandoned pecan orchards in southern Georgia
K.A. Patnode, Donald H. White
1992, Journal of Field Ornithology (63) 77-85
Daily survival rates (DSRs) of nests, eggs and nestlings were determined for Mourning Doves (Zenaida macroura), Northern Cardinals (Cardinalis cardinalis), Brown Thrashers (Toxostoma rufum) and Northern Mockingbirds (Mimus polyglottos) occupying abandoned pecan orchards in a highly fragmented and intensively farmed area of southern Georgia. The effects of nest placement parameters,...
Trapping the arboreal snake Boiga irregularis
Gordon H. Rodda, O. Eugene Maughan, Thomas H. Fritts, Renee Rondeau
1992, Amphibia-Reptilia (13) 47-56
The snake Boiga irregularis, an exotic on Guam, has eliminated the majority of the native vertebrates there. We tested traps designed to control this arboreal snake during three periods of 20-41 days in 1988 and 1989. The relative trapping successes with different baits and trap configurations indicated that this snake...
Energy metabolism and hematology of white-tailed deer fawns
R.E. Rawson, G. D. DelGiudice, H.E. Dziuk, L.D. Mech
1992, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (28) 91-94
Resting metabolic rates, weight gains and hematologic profiles of six newborn, captive white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) fawns (four females, two males) were determined during the first 3 mo of life. Estimated mean daily weight gain of fawns was 0.2 kg. The regression equation...
The impact of the introduction of the colubrid snake Boiga irregularis on Guam's lizards
G.H. Rodda, T. H. Fritts
1992, Journal of Herpetology (26) 166-174
The extirpation of Guam's forest avifauna has been attributed to the accidental introduction and subsequent irruption of the brown tree snake, Boiga irregularis. However, recent dietary studies of this nocturnal arboreal snake indicate that it now preys primarily on lizards, not birds. We evaluated the effect the snake has had...
Determining sex of eastern screech-owls using discriminant function analysis
D.G. Smith, Stanley N. Wiemeyer
1992, Journal of Raptor Research (26) 24-26
Seven morphometric characteristics and weight of males and females of a captive colony of Eastern Screech-Owls (Otus asio) were compared. Females were significantly larger than males in weight, total length, and length of tail, wing and bill. A discriminant function analysis based on weight, wing and tail length...
