Book Synopsis Monarchs in a Changing World by : Karen S. Oberhauser
Download or read book Monarchs in a Changing World written by Karen S. Oberhauser and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monarch butterflies are among the most popular insect species in the world and are an icon for conservation groups and environmental education programs. Monarch caterpillars and adults are easily recognizable as welcome visitors to gardens in North America and beyond, and their spectacular migration in eastern North America (from breeding locations in Canada and the United States to overwintering sites in Mexico) has captured the imagination of the public. Monarch migration, behavior, and chemical ecology have been studied for decades. Yet many aspects of monarch biology have come to light in only the past few years. These aspects include questions regarding large-scale trends in monarch population sizes, monarch interactions with pathogens and insect predators, and monarch molecular genetics and large-scale evolution. A growing number of current research findings build on the observations of citizen scientists, who monitor monarch migration, reproduction, survival, and disease. Monarchs face new threats from humans as they navigate a changing landscape marked by deforestation, pesticides, genetically modified crops, and a changing climate, all of which place the future of monarchs and their amazing migration in peril. To meet the demand for a timely synthesis of monarch biology, conservation and outreach, Monarchs in a Changing World summarizes recent developments in scientific research, highlights challenges and responses to threats to monarch conservation, and showcases the many ways that monarchs are used in citizen science programs, outreach, and education. It examines issues pertaining to the eastern and western North American migratory populations, as well as to monarchs in South America, the Pacific and Caribbean Islands, and Europe. The target audience includes entomologists, population biologists, conservation policymakers, and K–12 teachers.

Book Synopsis Conserving Migratory Pollinators and Nectar Corridors in Western North America by : Gary Paul Nabhan
Download or read book Conserving Migratory Pollinators and Nectar Corridors in Western North America written by Gary Paul Nabhan and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When migrating birds and other creatures move along a path of plant communities in bloom, they follow what has come to be known as a nectar trail. Should any of these plants be eliminated from the sequence—whether through habitat destruction, pests, or even aberrant weather—the movement of these pollinators may be interrupted and their very survival threatened. In recent efforts by ecologists and activists to envision a continental-scale network of protected areas connected by wildlife corridors, the peculiar roles of migratory pollinators which travel the entire length of this network cannot be underestimated in shaping the ultimate conservation design. This book, a unique work of comparative zoogeography and conservation biology, is the first to bring together studies of these important migratory pollinators and of what we must do to conserve them. It considers the similarities and differences among the behavior and habitat requirements of several species of migratory pollinators and seed dispersers in the West—primarily rufous hummingbirds, white-winged doves, lesser long-nosed bats, and monarch butterflies. It examines the population dynamics of these four species in flyways that extend from the Pacific Ocean to the continental backbone of the Sierra Madre Oriental and Rocky Mountains, and it investigates their foraging and roosting behaviors as they journey from the Tropic of Cancer in western Mexico into the deserts, grasslands, and thornscrub of the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. The four pollinators whose journeys are traced here differ dramatically from one another in foraging strategies and stopover fidelities, but all challenge many of the truisms that have emerged regarding the status of migratory species in general. The rufous hummingbird makes the longest known avian migration in relation to body size and is a key to identifying nectar corridors running through northwestern Mexico to the United States. And there is new evidence to challenge the long-supposed separation of eastern and western monarch butterfly populations by the Rocky Mountains as these insects migrate. Conserving Migratory Pollinators and Nectar Corridors in Western North America demonstrates new efforts to understand migratory species and to determine whether their densities, survival rates, and health are changing in response to changes in the distribution and abundance of nectar plants found within their ranges. Representing collaborative efforts that bridge field ecology and conservation biology in both theory and practice, it is dedicated to safeguarding dynamic interactions among plants and pollinators that are only now being identified.

Book excerpt: Monarch Butterfly Facts and Information • A Monarch butterfly lays about 400 eggs on milkweed leaves. The Monarch usually lays one egg per plant. • Monarch caterpillars only like to eat milkweed leaves. If you remove them from their milkweed food source they will die. • The male Monarch is usually larger than the female. It has two black dots on its wings. The female has thick black vein lines. • An adult Monarch has an average life span of 4 to 8 weeks. However, there are some Monarchs that can live anywhere from 8 to 9 months. This long life span is attributed to delayed sexual maturity. These Monarchs migrate to Mèxico to spend their winter vacation. • Monarchs become toxic (poison) to birds by feeding on milkweed plants. • Milkweed is a common weed found all over the United States. However, tropical milkweed can only be found in tropical areas. • Monarch caterpillars change into Monarch butterfly. This is known as metamorphosis. • Monarchs are insects. The body of a monarch is divided into three segments, it has six legs, a head, thorax and abdomen. • Monarch butterflies rest with their wings together. • 5 million Monarch butterflies from western North America head for a small number of cities scattered along the coast of California. 100 million Monarch butterflies from eastern part of the country head south to Michoacán in Central Mèxico. • The longest recorded flight of a Monarch butterfly is over 3,000 miles. While migrating, it can cover 80 miles a day. • The Monarch makes its migratory flight at speeds up to 11 miles per hour. It travels 16 or 17 feet above the ground. • Butterflies range in size. The tiniest of butterflies can be 1/8 inches in length. While some of the largest butterflies can flourish up to almost 12 inches in length. • Butterflies cannot fly if their body temperature is less than 86 degrees. • Butterflies can see red, and yellow. • Some Monarchs live their entire lives in tropical locations such as Florida, Southern Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. Datos Informativos sobre las mariposas Monarcas • Una mariposa Monarca pone alrededor de cuatrocientos huevos en plantas de asclepia. Generalmente pone uno por planta. • La larva de una Monarca solamente le gusta comer hojas de asclepia, si se remueven de esa comida morirían. • La mariposa Monarca masculina tiene dos puntos negros en sus alas y la femenina tiene una líneas de venas más ancha. La mariposa masculina suele ser más grande. • El tèrmino de vida de una Monarca adulta es normalmente de cuatro a ocho semanas, excepto aquellos que entran en una madurez sexual tardía y emigran a Mèxico para pasar las vacaciones de invierno. Esas pueden vivir de ocho a nueve meses. • Monarcas se convierten en tòxicos (veneno) para pájaros por estar alimentadas por plantas de asclepias. • Asclepia es una planta comùn que se encuentra en todo los Estados Unidos, la planta de asclepia tropical se puede encontrar en areas tropicales. • Larvas Monarcas cambian a mariposas Monarcas, este cambio se llama metamorfosis. • La Monarca es un insecto. Tiene seis patas y un cuerpo dividido en tres segmentos, cabeza, tòrax, y abdomen. • Las mariposas Monarcas de oeste de Amèrica del Norte vuelan a ciudades pequeñas por separado. Por las costas de California cien millones de mariposas Monarcas de la parte este de el paìs vuelan al sur de Michocán en el centro de Mèxico. • El viaje más largo grabado de una mariposa Monarca es de tres mil millas, mientras emigran pueden, recorrer hasta 80 millas por dìa. • Las mariposas Monarcas hacen su viaje migratorio a una velocidad hasta de once millas por hora. Viajan de dieciseis o decisiete pies por encima de la tierra. • Las mariposas Monarcas varian en tamaño de un octavo de pulgada hasta una grande de alrededor de doce pulgadas. • Las mariposas no pueden volar si la temperatur
Book Synopsis Ethnobotany of the Mountain Regions of Mexico by : Alejandro Casas
Download or read book Ethnobotany of the Mountain Regions of Mexico written by Alejandro Casas and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 1581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in recent years has increasingly shifted away from purely academic research, and into applied aspects of the discipline, including climate change research, conservation, and sustainable development. It has by now widely been recognized that “traditional” knowledge is always in flux and adapting to a quickly changing environment. Trends of globalization, especially the globalization of plant markets, have greatly influenced how plant resources are managed nowadays. While ethnobotanical studies are now available from many regions of the world, no comprehensive encyclopedic series focusing on the worlds mountain regions is available in the market. Scholars in plant sciences worldwide will be interested in this website and its dynamic content. The field (and thus the market) of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology has grown considerably in recent years. Student interest is on the rise, attendance at professional conferences has grown steadily, and the number of professionals calling themselves ethnobotanists has increased significantly (the various societies (Society for Economic Botany, International Society of Ethnopharmacology, Society of Ethnobiology, International Society for Ethnobiology, and many regional and national societies in the field currently have thousands of members). Growth has been most robust in BRIC countries. The objective of this new MRW on Ethnobotany of Mountain Regions is to take advantage of the increasing international interest and scholarship in the field of mountain research. We anticipate including the best and latest research on a full range of descriptive, methodological, theoretical, and applied research on the most important plants for each region. Each contribution will be scientifically rigorous and contribute to the overall field of study.
