In Hawai‘i and other oceanic islands with few native land mammals, black rats (Rattus rattus) are among the most damaging invasive vertebrate species to native forest bird populations and habitats, due to their arboreal behavior and generalist foraging habitats and habitat use. This is a selected data set used to assess the impacts of rodenticide treatment on black rat (Rattus rattus) abundance within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (HAVO). The key objective was to identify rat abundance before and after rodenticide treatment, using paired non-treatment and treatment plots at high elevation (1700-1830m) and low elevation (1220-1340 m). This dataset includes the results of a mark recapture study that took place within...

These data include Ceratocystis culture viability results from ambrosia beetle (Coleopetera: Scolytinae) frass. Frass is defined as fine particles of macerated wood or boring dust, beetle parts, and feces. Frass was collected from individual ambrosia beetle galleries in Ceratocystis-infected ʻōhiʻa (Metrosideros polymorpha) trees on Hawaiʻi Island, a phenomenon referred to as Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD). We recorded the height at which these beetles produced frass, how long we collected frass from galleries, and the total number of culturing tests from individual galleries.
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents initial water conditions (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and salinity) during aquarium trials testing the efficacy of carbon dioxide (CO2) to manage invasive fish in anchialine pools.
This data release documents specificity of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays to detect environmental DNA (eDNA) from tilapia, western mosquito fish and guppies. These assays provide new tools for resource managers to monitor effectiveness of management efforts to remove invasive fish from anchialine pools in Hawaii and to also survey pools for presence and absence of invasive fish. The lab work was conducted during 2019-2022.
Hawaiian hoary bat insect prey sampling with paired acoustic monitoring was conducted at Keaukaha Military Reservation (KMR) on Hawaii Island from May to August, 2018. At this property, a herd of domestic goats (occasionally mixed with domestic sheep) were rotated among grazing plots as part of a weed control program managed by Hawaii Army National Guard (HIARNG). We sampled insect abundance and community within the area where goats were used for weed control to better understand if grazing ungulates attract and support potential prey for insectivorous Hawaiian hoary bats.
These data include bark and ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species collected in cross-vane panel traps (CVPT) baited with a 1:1 methanol:ethanol lure in Northeastern ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) dominant forests of Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi in 2021.
These data include the quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) Ceratocystis lukuohia and C. huliohia DNA confirmations of viable subcultures. These data were used to determine the accuracy of morphological identifications.
Hawaiian hoary bat insect prey sampling with paired acoustic monitoring was conducted at Keaukaha Military Reservation (KMR) on Hawai‘i Island from May to August, 2018. At this property, a herd of domestic goats (occasionally mixed with domestic sheep) were rotated among grazing plots as part of a weed control program managed by Hawaii Army National Guard (HIARNG). Song Meter SM2BAT+ ultrasonic detectors (Wildlife Acoustics, Maynard, MA) with SMX-US ultrasonic microphones (Wildlife Acoustics, Maynard, MA) were deployed at a total of six stations, five monitoring stations (4E, 5F-I) and an additional reference station was established in an ungrazed area with similar non-native grassland habitat approximately 800-m...
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents the survival of fish or invertebrate exposed to carbon dioxide (CO2) gas treatment during aquarium trials. Aquarium trials were conducted with six taxa: guppies (Poecilia reticulata), western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis), Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus), Opae ula shrimp (Halocaridina rubra), feeble shrimp (Palaemon debilis) and a species of thiarid snail (Thiaridae). These results were part of a larger study aimed to test the efficacy of CO2 as a tool for managing invasive fish in anchialine pools.
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents changes in pH of anchialine pool water before, during and after diffusion of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. These results are part of a study testing the efficacy of CO2 as tool for eradicating invasive fish from anchialine pools. The trials were conducted at Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park and Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park, Hawaii, during 2021-2022.
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents unique types of mandibles dissected from caterpillars collected from different plant species at Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge during 2017-2018.

These data include frass production estimates from three ambrosia beetle species. Frass was collected from individual ambrosia beetle galleries in Rapid 'Ōhiʻa Death-infected ʻōhiʻa trees (Metrosideros polymorpha) from 2018-2019. Frass is defined as fine particles of macerated wood or boring dust, beetle parts, and feces.
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents the behavioral response of three species of fish invasive to Hawaii ( tilapia [Oreochromis mosambicus], western mosquitofish [Gambusia affinis] and guppies [Poecilia reticulata]) during aquarium trials testing the efficacy of carbon dioxide (CO2) diffused in water to manage invasive fish in anchialine pools. The work was conducted during 2020.
The data provide approximate size of Hawaii elepaio territories from field observation in 1994, and in 2015-2017 at the same field site along the Mauna Loa Strip section of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents lab and field trials testing the efficacy of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas diffused into water to manage invasive fish in anchialine pools. The data release also includes information documenting sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays to detect environmental DNA (eDNA) from tilapia (Oreochromis mosambicus), western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) and guppies (Poecilia reticulata). In total there are 11 datasets, 9 describing lab trials and 2 describing field trials. Lab data include 1) initial water conditions during pilot study, 2) behavioral response of fish to CO2 during pilot study, 3) survival...
This data release documents results of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays to detect environmental DNA (eDNA) from tilapia, western mosquito fish and guppies in pools with known fish populations and in pre and post-treatment samples from pools that were treated with carbon dioxide gas. These assays provide new tools for resource managers to monitor effectiveness of management efforts to remove invasive fish from anchialine pools in Hawaii and to also survey pools for presence and absence of invasive fish. The lab work was conducted during 2019-2022.
