ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I would like to thank Dr. J.H. Kennedy for his extreme patience, enthusiasm,
support, and guidance not only for my research, but for my education and career. He not
only taught me how to be a field biologist, but to persevere through other challenges in
this research, teaching, and studies. And often when a gentle nudge would not work, he
gave me a shove in the right direction. I would also like to thank Drs. Waller and
Dickson for their time and effort in reading manuscripts and answering questions about
my research. Thanks also to Mrs. Virginia Kennedy who assisted greatly in making the
developmental stage frequency figure, as well as sewing the collection net for the
sampling device. Thanks to Michael Kavanaugh for making the housing for the
permanent datalogger. Thanks to the City of Davis, Oklahoma, for providing access to
Honey Creek at Turner Falls Park. I would like to especially thank Tracee Bennett for
her enthusiasm and willingness to help on more than half of the collecting trips. I would
also like to thank the following people for field assistance: C. Baxley, B. Dunlap, S.
Earnest, R. Freiheit, T. Jackson, M. Kavanaugh, J. Mabe, and A. Stamatis. I would also
like to thank Candy King for always having the solutions to my many problems. Special
thanks to Jeff Mabe who has spent many evenings helping with statistics, reading and
editing of this manuscript, building of the substrate sampler, and endless support through
the completion of this study. I would also like to thank my parents, Herald Perry and
Dorothy Perry, who encouraged me to always do what I felt passionate about no matter
how many animals and insects I brought home.ii
