Social Behavior and Population Dynamics of Yellow-bellied Marmots

This table contains 36 years of trapping data. Up to 12 sites were studied annually within the vicinity of Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, Colorado; not all sites were monitored annually. A record includes the location where the subject was trapped, along with its body mass, age, sex, and repr

Social Behavior and Population Dynamics of Marmots

This table contains 37 years of demographic data for 12 sites. The trap record for each animal for each year the animal was present includes age, sex, locality, and reproductive status. Also included, when known, are changes in location, fate (predation death, dispersed), and genetic information (al

Dual function of the eliasome of <i>Corydalis aurea</i> (Fumariaceae): attraction of dispersal agents and repulsion of <i>Peromyscus maniculatus</i>, a seed predator

It has been suggested that one of the selective advantages of ant dispersal is the burial of seeds in ant nests where predators such as small rodents cannot find them. The elaiosomes of Corydalis aurea (Fumariaceae) are extremely attractive to ants, which assiduously gather the seeds and take them t

Non-adaptive" hilltopping behavior in male checkerspot butterflies (Euphydryas editha)

A fluorescent-dye technique permitted the mating success of male checkerspot butterflies aggregating on a ridge to be compared with that of males on the slope below. Unexpectedly, the males on the ridge had about one-half the mating success of those on the slope. We suggest that formation of this an

Individual differences in the behavior of juvenile yellow-bellied marmots

Yellow-bellied marmots express considerable individuality as measured by behavior in a maze, mirror-image stimulation (MIS), and social behavior in the field, suggesting that marmot have individual behavioral phenotypes that are expressed in their social interactions with their conspecifics.

Patch dynamics of a foraging assemblage of bees

The arrival-departure process of bees on flowers and the immigration-extinction process of species on islands are contrasted, and the value of the stochastic, species-level approach to community composition is briefly discussed.
