The Delaware River clubtail (Gomphurus septima delawarensis) is an endemic dragonfly subspecies found in the Delaware River watershed. Due to significant data gaps regarding its taxonomy, distribution, habitat associations, and response to key threats, it is considered a Science Needs species by the Science Applications program in the Northeast. This pilot study is focused on the known historic locations for the subspecies in New York and intends to field-test survey methodologies for assessing its distribution within the Delaware watershed. We will collect all Gomphidae exuviae (shed larval skins) encountered during timed searches at 11 historical locations across New York. These surveys will be repeated at these...
In the last two decades, the spruce beetle (Dendroctonus rufipennis Kirby) has killed >1.5 million ha of forest in Southcentral Alaska, and more than 350,000 cumulative hectares have been impacted since 2016. We need to understand what landscape and climate conditions predispose forests to stand level mortality during beetle outbreaks in order to identify areas most prone to beetle disturbance and to support the development of appropriate climatic indices that can serve as early warning of outbreaks. The goal of this project is to determine what initiated the recent beetle-kill event on the Kenai Peninsula so that appropriate indices can be monitored and/or effective adaptation strategies can be taken for future...
This project is coordinated by the Science Application’s Rapid Response Team. Surveys were initially conducted in 2022 from New Jersey to Florida and west to Louisiana.

The North American Bee Distribution Tool is an interactive portal that allows for rapid assessment of apparent bee species richness throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The tool incorporates species occurrence data of six families of bees using data provided by GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility, www.gbif.org), as well as conservation status rankings provided by NatureServe (www.natureserve.org). Users can filter from a variety of options, such as temporal range, geographic location (country, state, county, FWS legacy region), NatureServe conservation status, or taxonomic classification (family, genus, species). The tool is comprised of a central map showing spatial distribution of bee species...
