Eastern Wild Turkey

Oxyspirura turcottei n.sp. from beneath the nictitating membrane of Meleagris gallopavo silvestris of West Virginia is distinguished from other species of the subgenus Oxyspirura (undivided buccal capsule) by its size (males 9.8–13.8 mm long; females 9.6–17.7 mm long), the presence and morphology of the gubernaculum, the presence of three pairs of preanal papillae, no adanal papillae and three pairs of postanal papillae in most specimens, and by its long right and left spicules (215–245 μm and 495–615 μm, respectively).

Abstract We present a comparison of woody browse availability and white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) use among clearcut interiors, skidder trail edges, and mature forest and an evaluation of the relative importance of aboitic factors in predicting browsing pressure within regenerating clearcuts in the central Appalachians of West Virginia. We sampled 810 1-m2 plots in or adjacent to nine regenerating clearcuts (8–19 ha) during the summer of 2001. Availability and use of woody browse did not differ between clearcut interior and skidder trail plots for any species observed. Plots in the adjacent mature forest had less woody browse availability and higher utilization. Overall use of available woody browse in clearcuts was >15%. Combining all woody species, elevation (wI = 0.618) and distance to mature forest (wI = 0.379) were more important than landform index, plot surface shape, aspect, and slope in predicting deer browsing pressure in regenerating clearcuts. We believe that without management activities aimed at reducing deer browsing, in many parts of this region the ability of forest managers to regenerate stands will be jeopardized and the forested ecosystem will be compromised.
