Abstract

Oviposition and emergence of a bivoltine population of B. bicaudatus in multiple stream reaches in one high-altitude watershed in western Colorado over 3 years was surveyed to determine whether hydrologic variation necessitated dispersal of females to find suitable oviposition sites and whether the local supply of females could provide the supply of local recruits, and whether local recruitment determined the local production of adults.
