Although natal dispersal has received considerable attention from animal ecologists, the causes and consequences of breeding dispersal have remained largely unexplored. We used telemetry, direct observation, and long-term mark-recapture (9 yr) to study breeding dispersal in the North American red...

Independent evolution of leaf and root traits within and among temperate grassland plant communities
Download2011-01-01
In this study, we used data from temperate grassland plant communities in Alberta, Canada to test two longstanding hypotheses in ecology: 1) that there has been correlated evolution of the leaves and roots of plants due to selection for an integrated whole-plant resource uptake strategy, and 2)...

Morphometry of the teeth of western North American tyrannosaurids and its applicability to quantitative classification
Download2005
Samman, T., Hills, L. V., Powell, G. L., Currie, P. J.
Gross tooth morphology and serration morphology were examined to determine a quantifiable method for classifying tyrannosaurid tooth crowns from western North America From the examination of teeth in jaws, tyrannosaurid teeth could be qualitatively assigned to one of five types based on the...

Phylogenetic framework for Dioryctria (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae: Phycitinae) based on combined analysis of mitochondrial DNA and morphology
Download2005
Sperling, F. A. H., Du, Y., Roe, A. D.
Coneworms of the genus Dioryctria Zeller are important lepidopterous pests of conifer cones throughout the Holarctic region. Seventy-nine Dioryctria species are currently recognized and arranged into 11 species groups, but a globally unified classification of these species groups has not been...

Population structure and phylogenetic relationships of Ceutorhynchus neglectus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
Download2005
Sperling, F. A. H., Dosdall, L. M., Laffin, R. D.
Ceutorhynchus neglectus Blatchley is a weevil that is native to, and widely distributed in, North America. It has life-history characteristics similar to its alien invasive congener, Ceutorhynchus obstrictus (Marsham), the cabbage seedpod weevil. Our study was undertaken to compare the population...
