of insect sampling for his work and mine.
The general plan is to:
1. Sample systematically from pupae (pupal)
for all size stages of larvae
standard size tundra samples) to
arrive at an abundance (density figured
logically) of each species of Tipulidae in all
the habitats found on the tundra. This will
be carried out over a number of years.
2. Quantitate the emergence of adult
Tipulidae by use of emergence traps.
3. Compare quantitatively the number of
all larval, pupal and adults found and
emerged in a defined area that has
been excluded from utilization by
shore birds and other birds and to an
area where free access is allowed
to all predators.
4. Determine the water stage of each
insect.
5. Investigate the relationship of each
species to each other as larvae and
adults.
