Most odonate species do not typically climb higher than 50 cm when choosing an emergence support. We observed multiple of nymphs using trees as supports at heights greater and up to 4, 6.9, 14.6 m for Calopteryx maculata (Ebony Jewelwing), Somatochlora minor (Ocellated Emerald), Didymops transversa (Stream Cruiser), respectively. These represent the greatest ever documented supports. Our research suggests that some (S. minor; D. transversa) appear have a affinity climbing great during others...
Ecological understanding of many arboreal and semi-arboreal species is limited because difficulties associated with studying wildlife in canopies. As part a multi-faceted Pinus strobus canopy research project, we used camera traps located canopies to examine diel, seasonal, spatial patterns Peromyscus spp.'s habitat use. From 2014 2018, documented 201 events spp. using the over course 8491 trap nights, at three separate sites spanning 57 km north-south transect. We detected heights up 24 m,...
The ecology of many arboreal ectotherms is poorly understood because access constraints to the forest canopy. For example, despite their common name, Gray Treefrogs (Hyla versicolor) are understudied in habitats. Advancements camera trap technology and tree-climbing techniques have created new opportunities study species. Using trapping time-lapse photography, we implemented first H. versicolor behavior We examined seasonal diel patterns activity, microhabitat use, effects relative humidity...
