Waihou Mitigation Area, Maui Island, bat acoustic activity, diet and prey availability, 2015 to 2018
Habitat use, diet, prey availability and foraging ecology of the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus semotus, Vespertilionidae) were examined in the east Maui region inclusive of the Waihou Mitigation Area, Pu'u Makua Restoration Area and the wind power facility operated by Auwahi Wind Energy, LLC. The study was conducted to inform the mitigation and management requirements of Auwahi Wind Energy, and fulfill requirements for mitigating bat fatalities under its approved incidental take permit. Acoustic monitoring over the three-year period demonstrated that bats are present and actively feed year-round at the Waihou Mitigation Area. This study included the first genetic analysis of Hawaiian hoary bat...
We investigated the summer diets of feral burros (Equus asinus) in two ecosystems in which they are found in the United States: a subtropical desert in Arizona (Lake Pleasant Herd Management Area; HMA) and a temperate juniper shrubland in Utah (Sinbad HMA). In June and July of 2019, we gathered 50 burro fecal samples randomly from each location and used plant DNA metabarcoding to determine the burros’ diets. This dataset includes two.csv files: Burro_diet_AZ_UT_JuneJuly_2019_genera.csv - data showing the diet of burros at Lake Pleasant, AZ and Sinbad, UT HMAs by percent of genera detected. Burro_diet_AZ_UT_JuneJuly_2019_species.csv - data showing the diet of burros at Lake Pleasant, AZ and Sinbad, UT HMAs by percent...
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that document the responses of birds to changes in habitat conditions before and after koa (Acacia koa) defoliation by koa moths (Scotorythra paludicola). Data sets document changes in the (1) use of tree species, (2) arthropod composition of diets, and (3) body mass.
The role of disease in freshwater mussel declines has been largely ignored due to the lack of appropriate diagnostic tools and metabolomic markers of stress. Mussels in this study were either fed a prepared diet or unfed and their condition was assessed with the observed changes in fatty acid content of their tissue. This dataset contains quantitative fatty acid data from nonlethal (biopsy) sampling of foot tissue. These data may provide biomarkers indicative of freshwater mussel’s metabolic status.
