2 1238 G.B. HEWIfl MATERIAL AND METHODS Tw study sites were seleted; ne site ws lted ner mp Grnde, MS nd ne ner Durds, MS, Brzil. Eh site ntined tw pstures (B. deumbens), ne with high grss (> 30 m) nd ne with lw grss (< 20 m). Envirnmenti mesurements nd smpling ws rried ut frm My t September t bth sites. Eggs nd dults í Zuli entrerin were used in the study. Experiment 1 -mp Grnde, MS The grss in ne ptsture verged > 30 m in height in My (high grss psture) nd < 20 m in the ther psture (lw grss psture). The pstures were seprted by n unimprved rd. Eh psture ntined six heifers during the time f the study. Sine the pstures were different sizes the stking rte ws 1.05 AUM's in the liigh grss psture nd 1.75 AUM's in Use lw grss psture. A wden stke 12 m in dimeter nd 60 m lng ws prtiily buried ner the enter ( eh psture but extended 16 m bve the grund. The stkes were used s permnent referene pirfis fr mesuring envirnmentl ftrs nd fr iting spittlebug eggs tht were pied in the pstures. A rpe ws tthed t the stke nd mesurements were mde in irle equl distnes ut frm the stke. Fr exmple, twelve mesurements f grss height, plnt vei, nd the munt í litter in 50 m 2 re were mde in My nd September in bth pstures. Eh mesurement f grss height ws n veige t three heights nd pint ver (%) ws estimted. Spittlebug eggs were pled in the pstures in My nd revered in Septejnber. Three methds f pling eggs in the pstures re desribed s filws: (1) (emles were liwed t ly eggs in sil-fihled plsti ups in the lbrtry. The sil re ntining the eggs ws then refuliy remved frm the up nd pled in hle (g the eggs were t grund levei) t mrked ltins in eh psture; (2) lnwn number í eggs were pled in smll (8 mx x 4 m) nyln sks nd these in turn were pled in the pstures; (3) femles were ged in eh psture nd ilwed t vipsit diretiy int the psture sil r litter. A ttl í 24 sil smpies ntining eggs lid in the lbrtry were pled in eh psture. Litter ws pled ver 12 smples t depth í 0.5 m. The ther 12smpIes were pled in the grund nd left expsed. The men number f eggs per sil smple ws determined by unting the eggs in 12 ntrl ups fliwing vipsitin. The nyln sks eh ntined 20 dipuse eggs. Sixteen sks were pled in eh psture; eight were lsed t prtet the eggs (rm predtrs nd eight were kept pen t ne end by extending tw smll stiks thrugh Use pening. Fur f the pen sks were vered with litter nd fur were vered with sil t depth f 0.5 m. The sme ws true fr the eight lsed sks. Twenty femies were pled in eh ge nd llwed t ly eggs fr perid f three dys fter whih time the ges were remved. In eh psture fur ges were pied ver mil nd fur ver litter. The men number f eggs depsited in eh psture in sil nd litter ws determined by unting Use eggs lid in eight dditinl ntrl ges fllwing vipsitin. Ltins í li eggs pled r lid in the pstures were mrked by smlt stke 50 Use ext sil smple uld be revered in September. The perent hth ws determined frm li eggs revered iri September exept fr Use eggs revered frm the smll pen sks. Eggs were pled n mistened fulter ppei in petri dishes nd the hth rerded dily. Mnthly preipittin ws Terded during tlie dry sesn. Twenty-first genertin nymphl unts ( m 2 ) were mde ne time in eh psture n Otber 11. Sweep net smples í miseilneus insets were lleted frm eh pstureseven times frm July 19 t Nvember 1. Vive smples were btined n eh dte. A smple nsisted f 15 (180 0) sweeps with 45 m dimeter sweep net. Experiment 2 - Durds, MS The vegettin in bth pstures t this site ws equl in terms f grss height, plnt ver, nd munt í litter present when the nturl spittlebug ppuitin í the pstures were vipsiting in Mrh nd Aprii. Befre this experiment ws initited Use grss in ne psture (lw grss psture) ws trmpled nd grzed t the extent tht very little upright vegettin ws present. The men height f the grss in the ther psture (high grss psture) ws > 50 m. The grss height nd plnt ver (%) were mesured t tweive ltins in eh psture in My nd August. Frty-first genertin nymphl unts ( m 2 ) were mde weekly beginning in Nvember in eh psture. N ttle were in either psture during the test. Ten ges in eh psture were eh infested with ten (emles in My nd eggs were lid diretiy int the sil. After three dys the ges were remved nd their ltins mrked with smil stkes. Ten dditinl ges were ls infested nd fiei three dys the eggs were unted t give men number í eggs per ge. in August the eggs remining beneth Use ther 20 ges were revered nd the perent survivl determined.

Mny mre spiders (Arneid) were lleted itt the tl1 grss psture thn in the lw grss psture. It is pssible tht sme fthe spiders nd mntids might prey n either spittlebug nymphs r dults. The shrt grss psture prvided fvrble hbitt fr grsshppers (Aridide) nd their presene is signifint sine they lng with spittlebugs mpete with livestk fr the vilble frge. Experiment 2 There were n signifint differenes (P > 0.05) in the men number f eggs revered fliwing vipsitin (2.9 ± S.E f 1.01) nd thse revered lter in the high grss psture (3.3 ± 1.37) nd the lw grss psture (0.3 ± 0.21). First genertin nymphl density n Nv. 1 i the high grss psture ws 551m 1 nd 161mt in the!w grss psture. l My, npy height in the high grss psture verged 52m, nd ner the end f August 28m. The plnt ver ws 58% in My nd 63% in August. The grss height in My in the lw grss psture verged 58 m (befre grzing) nd 12 m in August. The plnt ver deresed frm 62% in My t 10% in August s result f hevy grzing nd trmpling prir t the strt f the study.
