Eremitt Osmoderma eremita er en stor, brunsvart bille i familien skarabider. Den lever i gamle, hule løvtrær og er vurdert som truet i store deler av Europa. I Norge ble den antatt å være utdødd inntil den ble gjenfunnet i Tønsberg i 2008. Den er listet i kategori «kritisk truet» (CR) i Norsk rødliste for arter 2015, og er en prioritert art (fredet) i Norge. I tillegg er den på vedlegg til EUs habitatdirektiv og vurdert som «nær truet» (NT) på global rødliste. Handlingsplanen for eremitt ble publisert av Direktoratet for naturforvaltning (nå Miljødirektoratet) i 2011, og eremitt ble ved egen forskrift av 20. mai 2011 vedtatt som prioritert art med hjemmel i lov 19. juni 2009 nr. 100 «Naturmangfoldloven».
Denne rapporten beskriver resultatene av et oppdrag vedrørende eremitt i 2015, som ble definert gjennom fire deloppdrag; A) Kartlegging og søk (Fredrikstad kommune), B) Overvåking (Tønsberg gamle kirkegård), C) Avl under kontrollerte forhold, og D) Eikehagen ved Berg fengsel.
Det er nylig sammenstilt god informasjon om hule eiker (og andre store trær) i Fredrikstad kommune, hvorav flere kan ha potensiale som habitat for eremitt. Det ble derfor foretatt søk etter eremitt på et begrenset utvalg lokaliteter i kommunen i 2015. Det ble ikke funnet spor etter eremitt, og foruten enkelttrær var ingen av lokalitetene sett under ett egnet som habitat for eremitt.
På Tønsberg gamle kirkegård ble det i 2015 funnet relativt få voksne individer av eremitt, men med god spredning på kirkegården. 2015-sesongen i år var trolig sein (i motsetning til i 2014), noe som ble sannsynliggjort av at to levende, voksne individer ble påvist så seint som 1. oktober.
Etter en undersøkelse av de aktuelle trærne på Tønsberg gamle kirkegård ble det funnet spor etter eremitt i 17 trær, hvorav ett var “nytt” (kun fragmenter, ikke yngling). Antall trær på kirkegården med påvist yngling er derfor fremdeles 21 som i 2014. Vintersprekkene var i sesongen 2015/2016 dårlig utviklet på grunn av høye vintertemperaturer.
De ni larvene av eremitt som skjøttes i fangenskap ble i løpet av sesongen overført til separate bokser med muld. I tillegg ble det samlet inn ytterligere to larver som ble plassert i to ulike eikemuld-substrater i separate bokser. Totalt er 11 individer nå i fangenskap, og minst en av disse har forpuppet seg og er ventet å klekke i 2016.
Konklusjonen etter årets undersøkelser er som før at populasjonen i Tønsberg trolig er større og mer robust enn tidligere antatt. Samtidig tyder svingningene i antall individer fra år til år på at det er store variasjoner i årsklassene, delvis også i klekke- og flyvetid på sommeren (fenologien).
I 2015 ble konkrete skjøtselstiltak foreslått i eikehagen ved Berg fengsel, og dette ble utført i løpet av vinteren 2015/2016. Tiltakene går ut på å fjerne enkelte, mindre trær for å gi mer lys og varme inn i hagen og på eikestammene, samt å fjerne en del kratt langs den gamle jernbanetraséen sørvest i hagen.
Vi anbefaler en videre overvåking av populasjonen på Tønsberg gamle kirkegård, samt en videreføring av arbeid med avl under kontrollerte forhold og oppstart av et introduksjonsprogram for utsetting på ny lokalitet. Det er også vesentlig å vurdere nye, egnede habitater som måtte dukke opp som følge av annen kartleggingsinnsats.Endrestøl, A., Hanssen, O. & Flåten, M. 2016. Mapping and monitoring of the Hermit Beetle Osmoderma eremita in Norway 2015 – NINA Report 1252. 38 p.
The Hermit Beetle Osmoderma eremita is a large, brown beetle in the family scarabaeidae. It lives in old, hollow trees and is considered endangered in many parts of Europe. In Norway, it was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered in Tønsberg municipality in Vestfold county in 2008. It is listed as critically endangered (CR) in the Norwegian Red List for species in 2015 and is protected by law in Norway. In addition, it is on Appendix II and IV of EU Habitat Directive and it is considered Near Threatened (NT) on the Global Red List. An Action Plan for the Hermit Beetle was published by the Norwegian Directorate for Nature Management in 2011 (now The Norwegian Environment Agency). On 20th May 2011, the Hermit Beetle was pronounced a «Prioritized Species» according to the «Biodiversity Act».
This report describes the results of a project on the Hermit Beetle in Norway in 2015. The project was divided into four subprojects; A) Survey (Fredrikstad municipality), B) Monitoring (Tønsberg old cemetery in Tønsberg municipality), C) Breeding under controlled conditions, and E) The oak forest at Berg penitentiary.
Good information about hollow oaks (and other big trees) in Fredrikstad municipality is recently assembled, several of them possibly with potential as habitat for the Hermit Beetle. A survey was therefore undertaken on some localities in Fredrikstad municipality in 2015. No traces of the Hermit Beetle were found, and besides single trees, none of the localities were considered suitable habitat for the Hermit Beetle.
On Tønsberg old cemetery, just a few adult individuals of the Hermit Beetle were found in 2015, but with good dispersion throughout the cemetery. Due to climatic conditions during the 2015 summer, the flight period of the beetle was probably delayed (in contrast to the situation in 2014). This was supported by the fact that two living, adult specimens were found as late as 1. October 2015. After searching the trees on Tønsberg old cemetery, traces of the Hermit Beetle were found in 17 trees, one of which was ”new” (just fragments, not breeding). It is therefore still (as in 2014) discovered breeding in 21 trees on Tønsberg old cemetery. The wintercracks were in the winter season 2015/2016 poorly developed due to high winter temperatures.
The nine larvae of the Hermit Beetle we have in captivity were during 2015 transferred to separate breeding boxes. In addition, two larvae were collected in 2015 and placed in two different oak substrates in separate boxes. In total 11 individuals are now in captivity, where at least one of these has pupated and will hopefully hatch in 2016.
The conclusion after this year’s research is, as before, that the population of the Hermit Beetle in Tønsberg old cemetery probably is larger and more robust than previously thought. At the same time substantial fluctuations in individuals from year to year are probably caused by variation in cohorts and partly also in phenology.
In 2015, management measures in the oak forest at Berg prison were specified, and have been executed during the winter 2015/2016. The main measures are to remove some small trees to increase sun light exposure on the oak trees and further remove some bushes along the old railway line in the southwestern corner of the forest.
We recommend further monitoring of the population at Tønsberg old cemetery, and a continuation of the work with a breeding program and an introduction of the species to a new site. It is also important to assess potential new habitats that come to attention due to other mapping efforts.© Norsk institutt for naturforskning. Publikasjonen kan siteres fritt med kildeangivelse
Card from Collin Lee Hatch to Mitzi Masukawa, January 15, 1943
No full textA thank-you card from Collin Lee Hatch for a gift of a plaque that Mitzi Masukawa Naohara sent her as a Christmas gift. Because the receiver's last name was wrongly spelled as "Matsukawa," it got lost at the Poston camp in Arizona and took six months to reach Mitzi at the Poston camp III. An item from: Mitzi Naohara scrapbook (csudh_nao_0400), page 31.The George and Mitzi Naohara Papers consists of photo albums and scrapbooks compiled by George and Mitzi Naohara, and other documents pertaining to the Naohara and Masukawa family. Contained are photographs, correspondence, documents, and memorabilia depicting their experiences during World War II. George Nobuo Naohara is a Kibei Nisei, and his experiences include his farm labor in Idaho and Utah, incarceration in the Manzanar, Jerome, and Tule Lake camps, and the U.S. Army language school training and Korean War. He also engaged in Buddhist activities for his whole life and there are moving images depicting Gardena Buddhist Church activities after the war. Mitzi Masukawa Naohara was a preschool teacher at the Poston camp, Arizona, and also a member of a young Nisei women's club, "Sigma Debs.” Her collected materials depict her life as a teacher and social events in the Poston camp during the war

Buckfield: A Geographical History of Rural Development in Nineteenth-Century Oxford County
No full textIn this article author Nancy Hatch presents a geographical and historical account of the town of Buckfield, Oxford County; Maine, that elaborates a model of center-village development constructed by Joseph Wood in his The New England Village, and a model of connected farm buildings, as constructed by Thomas Hubka in his Big House, Little House, Back House, Barn. Hatch uses these models to explain how Buckfield responded to the growth of inter-regional agricultural markets in the mid-nineteenth century and to new architectural styles that appeared on the national scene in these decades. Ms. Hatch was a student at the University of Southern Maine at Lewiston-Auburn College when she wrote this paper under the direction of Professor Barry Rodrigue

The effects of hatch-order, gender and clutch sex ratios on the behaviour of Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia)
No full textThe Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) builds its nests in burrows made by various types of mammals. These owls have an asynchronous hatch. Females typically lay one egg per day for 8-12 days, incubation of each egg beginning as soon as it is laid. As a result, earlier laid eggs hatch earlier than those laid later. This asynchronous hatch results in age and thus size differences between the first and last hatched chicks of a clutch. Due to the size advantage, the earlier hatched chicks within a clutch may not need to fight to get food. In contrast, later-hatched chicks may be more aggressive since they must compensate for their size disadvantage. Burrowing Owls mate monogamously, and the members of a pair have different roles. Males spend the majority of the time outside of the burrow, guarding, the nest and hunting for themselves and their mates. Females, on the other hand, spend more time inside the burrow, incubating and caring for the young. As a result of their different roles, males may be innately more dominant and aggressive (to protect their nest from intruders), compared to females. In this study, I examine the possible effects of both asynchronous hatch order and gender on behaviour of young Burrowing Owl
Controlling microstructure evolution and phase transformation behavior in additive manufacturing of nitinol shape memory alloys by tuning hatch distance
No full textLaser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), categorized as additive manufacturing technique, has a capability to fabricate NiTi (Nitinol) shape memory alloys with tailorable functional properties and complex geometries. An important processing parameter, hatch distance (h), is often related to macroscale structural defects; however, its role on controlling the microstructure and functional properties is usually underestimated in L-PBF of NiTi. In this work, equiatomic NiTi (50.0 at% Ni) parts were fabricated with various hatch distances to tailor the microstructure and their shape memory characteristics. Contrary to what is observed in Ni-rich NiTi alloys, in this work, we demonstrate that phase transformation temperatures of L-PBF equiatomic NiTi do not decrease proportionally with hatch distance but rather relate to a critical hatch distance value. This critical value (120 μm) is derived from the synergistic effect of thermal stress and in situ reheating. Below this value, epitaxial grain growth and in situ recrystallization are enhanced, while above, irregular grains are formed and dislocations induced by thermal stresses decrease. However, the critical value found herein is characterized by high dislocation density and fine grain size, resulting in a superior thermal cyclic stability. The proposed finite element model is proven to be an effective tool to understand and predict the effect of hatch distance on grain morphology and dislocation density evolutions in L-PBF NiTi SMAs. In the present study, we provide a comprehensive understanding for in situ controlling L-PBF NiTi microstructure and functional characteristics, which contributes to designing 4-dimensional shape memory alloys.Team Vera PopovichTeam Marcel HermansTeam Amarante BottgerTeam Kevin Ross
