Butterfly Inventory in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Layberry, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: Butterflies are easily studied and can provide valuable information of changes occuring in northern ecosystems - including climate changes, and habitat changes. Many areas of the NWT have few studies on insects; therefore, this inventory work can inprove the baseline information of these species. The main investigator will travel with other NWT biologists to remote study sites and near comm...

A Review of the Butterfly Genus Erebia
Principal Investigator: Tennent, John
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: This is the first part of a planned review of the circumpolar butterfly genus Erebia. The researcher will be self driven. Photographs will be taken of live Erebia specimens and habitats. Voucher specimens will be collected using standard insect net, for...

Investigation of Distribution and Range Boundaries for Some Common Subarctic Inscects Occuring at or Near Treeline
Principal Investigator: Royer, Ronald A.
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researcher will investigate range boundaries and species intergrade zones. The researcher will also possibly define ecological limiting factors for selected apecies of common arctic insects, principally in the order of Lepidoptera. This data will fill numerous gaps in understanding of distribution and speciation for the targeted species, the ranges of many of which are assumed but not yet co...

Biology, ecology and cold tolerance of arctic insects
Principal Investigator: Ring, Richard A.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1990 1987
Summary: As part of a long term study, I will continue to examine the biology of arctic and subarctic insects. Information will be collected on insect distributions as well as insect adaptations to living in environments with extremely cold winters and short summers. Studies on insect communities in the north may be good indicators of global climate change since they are short-lived species with limited a...

Insects and arachnids in the northern Richardson Mountains of the Yukon and NWT and the Dempster Highway.
Principal Investigator: Behan-Pelletier, Valerie
Licensed Year(s): 1987

Ecology of beetles, especially ground beetles, of boreal forest, open woodland, and tundra of the Yukon Territory and Northwest Territories.
Principal Investigator: Garry, Clarke E.
Licensed Year(s): 1988 1987
Summary: To determine the beetle species that are found in specific biogeographical zones, what species are likely to be found together in specific locations, and what the habitat preferences of the collected species are....
