Lercaritubus problematicus Flügel, Senowbari-Daryan, and Di Stefano, 1990, a problematic organism, was initially described from Lower and Middle Permian rocks of Sicily, was subsequently recognized in Upper Permian reefs of Oman and reefal limestones of the Tethyan realm. It is here described for the first time from North America, from the Middle Permian reefoidal Upper Capitan Limestone of the Guadalupe Mountains in New Mexico. Lercaritubus problematicus has a stratigraphic range of Lower to Upper Permian and occurs widely in Permian tropical reef deposits.

The decapods Linuparus grimmeri Stenzel, Protocallianassa mortoni (Pilsbry) and Necrocarcinus (Cenomanocarcinus) vanstraeleni (Stenzel)? are described from the middle Turonian Semilla Sandstone Member, Mancos Shale, of north-central New Mexico. The main specimen of P. mortoni is unusually complete, consisting of a complete left first cheliped, parts of other pereiopods, and most of the abdomen. Both L. grimmeri and P. mortoni are reported for the first time from the southern Western Interior. The stratigraphic range of L. grimmeri is extended upward from the upper Cenomanian, and the range of P. mortoni downward from the Campanian.

AbstractA total of 19 helminth species (1 trematode, 11 cestodes, 7 nematodes) were collected from 45 vagrant shrews, Sorex vagrans (Mammalia, Soricidae), in western Montana, USA. One trematode (Brachylaima sp.), 2 cestodes (Paruterina candelabraria, Staphylocystoides longi), and 6 nematodes (Baruscapillaria rauschi, Eucoleus oesophagicola, Longistriata meylani, Paracrenosoma sp., Parastrongyloides winchesi, Pseudophysaloptera formosana) are reported for the first time from this host. Baruscapillaria rauschi n. comb. is proposed for Capillaria rauschi Read, 1949. This is the first record of merocercoids of P. candelabraria from a shrew, and the first report of the genus Paracrenosoma in North America.

Extensive Damage

The European, or Essex skipper, Thymelicus (= Adopaea) lineola (Ochs.), was accidentally introduced into North America at London, Ontario, sometime before 1910 (Saunders, 1916). The history of its subsequent spread through southern Ontario and adjoining parts of Michigan and Ohio was reviewed by Pengelly (1961), who received the first report of extensive damage to hay and pasture crops by this insect in Ontario from the Markdale area of Grey County in 1956. A survey in 1958 (Pengelly, 1961) showed that the skipper “appeared to be present throughout the southern part of the province except for the Bruce peninsula and possibly the Windsor area. The northeasterly boundary appeared to he along a line from Midland, south around the west side of Lake Simcoe, east to Lindsay and south to Whitby.” The present author collected T. lineola larvae from the Belleville area for the first time in 1959.

Akebia quinata (chocolate-vine, five-leaf akebia) is grown as a perennial ornamental vine in North America. Five collections were made from A. quinata plants in western Washington with symptoms of powdery mildew caused by Microsphaera akebiae Sawada. This report documents the presence of this fungus in North America for the first time, describes and illustrates this fungus and the disease it causes, and reviews the taxonomy and identification of the fungus. Accepted for publication 24 February 2004. Published 16 March 2004.

The four North American species of Evernia, E. divaricata (L.) Ach., E. mesomorpha Nyl., E. perfragilis Llano, and E. prunastri (L.) Ach., are discussed from the standpoint of taxonomy, distribution, and ecology. The North American distributions of E. divaricata and E. perfragilis are mapped for the first time. A puzzling lichen found on the ground in alpine areas from New Mexico north to Alberta is regarded as an ecological variant of E. divaricata.

In North Dakota and Minnesota, the authors encountered a powdery mildew disease of Caragana arborescens Lam. (Siberian pea tree) previously unreported from these states. The causal agent was determined to be Microsphaera palczewskii Jacz. This report documents for the first time the presence of M. palczewskii in North America east of the Rocky Mountains and includes information on the morphology, classification, and distribution of this species.

Stratigraphic Range

Most species of the middle and late Hettangian psiloceratid genusSunrisitesare endemic to the eastern Pacific, where they are common members of ammonoid assemblages. the Taseko Lakes map area in British Columbia yields diverse and well-preservedSunrisitesfaunas which are formally described here for the first time. Three new species are recognized,S. brimblecombei, S. chilcotinensis, andS. senililevis.the new species require an extension of the morphological range of the genus to include forms that become moderately involute at large shell diameters. Signs of sexual dimorphism are apparent within all three new species ofSunrisites.This work extends the stratigraphic range ofSunrisitesto include the latest Hettangian Rursicostatum Zone in North America. The distribution ofSunrisitessuggests that the Hispanic Corridor, which linked the western Tethyan Ocean and the eastern Pacific, may have been open during the Hettangian. Furthermore, occurrences of the genus constrain the Hettangian position of several allochthonous terranes to the northeastern Pacific.
