“…We found this species at four sites between 2980-4800 ft elevation, in Lincoln County, on the Rexford and Three Rivers RDs of the Kootenai National Forest (Appendix C). This species was first documented in Montana during the 2005 survey (Frest and Johannes 1995;Hendricks 2003;Hendricks et al 2006Hendricks et al , 2007. The Pale Jumping-slug appears to be restricted to northern Idaho, and adjacent parts of Washington, British Columbia, Alberta, and now Montana Johannes 1995, 2001;Forsyth 2004).…”

“…Only recently was this species first discovered and described, from five sites in northern Idaho . It was documented in Montana for the first time at four sites during the 2005 survey (Hendricks et al 200), and at seven more sites in 200 (Hendricks et al 2007). Canopy at the 2007 sites included western redcedar, grand fir, Engelmann spruce, western hemlock, subalpine fir, lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine, alder, and western larch.…”

“…We found this species at four sites between 3140-4500 ft elevation in Lincoln and Mineral counties, on the Fortine and Libby RDs of the Kootenai National Forest and the Superior RD of the Lolo National Forest (Appendix C). Prior to the 2006 survey, this slug was known from < 20 sites in Montana (Hendricks 2003;Hendricks et al 2006Hendricks et al , 2007 Hendricks et al 2006Hendricks et al , 2007. Prior to 2004 this slug was known in Montana from a single site.…”

“…Objectives of the 2005 inventory included filling species distribution gaps, testing survey methodology, and collecting geospatial and habitat data for the development of predictive habitat and distribution models that can aid future survey efforts. The survey was continued in 2006 and 2007 with the same objectives, and with the Montana Natural Heritage Program restricting its field effort to the nine National Forests within Montana (Hendricks et al 2007).…”

Site Information Ecoregion: One of the 14 ecoregion sections in Montana or 6 in the Idaho Panhandle. Sample Block: Identify three digit number of the sampling block (range 001-999). Site No: Identify three digit number of the site being surveyed within each sampling block (range 001-999). Locality: Describe the specific geographic location of the site so that the type of site is described and the straight-line air distance from one or more permanent features on a 7.5-minute (1:24,000 scale) topographic map records the position of the site (e.g., Large talus slope 1.5 miles north of Engle Peak, N side of FS Road 225). State: Use the two-letter abbreviation. County: Use the full county name. Map Name: List the name of the USGS 7.5-minute (1:24,000 scale) topographic quadrangle map. T: Record the Township number and whether it is north or south. R: Record the Range number and whether it is east or west. S: Record the Section number Section Description: Describe location of the site at the ¼ of ¼ section level (e.g., SENE indicates SE corner of NE corner). Owner: Use abbreviation of the government agency responsible for managing the land you surveyed. (e.g. USFS, BLM). If private land was surveyed list the owner's full name to indicate that you did not trespass. Map Elevation: The elevation of the site as indicated by the topographic map in feet (avoid using elevations from a GPS) Datum: The map datum used (typically NAD 27 if off topographic map or WGS84 if off GPS unit on standard setting). UTM Zone: Universal Transverse Mercator zone recorded on the topographic map. UTM East: Universal Transverse Mercator easting coordinate in meters as recorded on the topographic map or GPS receiver. Be sure to note any major differences between UTM coordinates on the map and those on the GPS receiver. UTM North: Universal Transverse Mercator northing coordinate in meters as recorded on the topographic map or GPS receiver. Be sure to note any major differences between UTM coordinates on the map and those on the GPS receiver. Survey Information Date: Use MM-DD-YY format (e.g. 05/12/00 for May 12 of 2000). Observers: List names or initials of individuals involved with survey of this site and circle the name of the recorder. Begin Time: List the time the survey began in 24-hour format. End Time: List the time the survey ended in 24-hour format. Total Person Minutes of Search: Record the total person minutes the site was searched (e.g. if one person surveys for 15 minutes and another surveys for 30 minutes, but takes 5 minutes to measure a specimen the total person minutes is 40 minutes). Area (M 2) Searched: Area in square meters that was surveyed. Percent of Site Searched: Circle the appropriate category. Percent Slope: Percent slope of site. Enter range if variable. Aspect: Circle primary aspect of the site. Habitat Type: Circle the appropriate habitat type. Primary Canopy Species: List the major plant species in the canopy (e.g., red cedar, western hemlock, grand fir, ninebark) Overall Percent Canopy Cover: Circle the appropriate...

Identifying cryptic diversity with predictive phylogeography

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Identifying units of biological diversity is a major goal of organismal biology. An increasing literature has focused on the importance of cryptic diversity, defined as the presence of deeply diverged lineages within a single species. While most discoveries of cryptic lineages proceed on a taxon-by-taxon basis, rapid assessments of biodiversity are needed to inform conservation policy and decision-making. Here, we introduce a predictive framework for phylogeography that allows rapidly identifying cryptic diversity. Our approach proceeds by collecting environmental, taxonomic and genetic data from codistributed taxa with known phylogeographic histories. We define these taxa as a reference set, and categorize them as either harbouring or lacking cryptic diversity. We then build a random forest classifier that allows us to predict which other taxa endemic to the same biome are likely to contain cryptic diversity. We apply this framework to data from two sets of disjunct ecosystems known to harbour taxa with cryptic diversity: the mesic temperate forests of the Pacific Northwest of North America and the arid lands of Southwestern North America. The predictive approach presented here is accurate, with prediction accuracies placed between 65% and 98.79% depending of the ecosystem. This seems to indicate that our method can be successfully used to address ecosystemlevel questions about cryptic diversity. Further, our application for the prediction of the cryptic/non-cryptic nature of unknown species is easily applicable and provides results that agree with recent discoveries from those systems. Our results demonstrate that the transition of phylogeography from a descriptive to a predictive discipline is possible and effective.
