An Improved Technique for Identification of Plant Fragments in Herbivore feces

An improved bleaching, staining and mounting procedure for fecal samples permits the identification of plant fragments to be made with the projection microscope in addition to the usual binocular types. Small modifications to existing techniques of preparing standard plant material facilitate direct comparison of plant fragments in feces with these standards.This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.The Journal of Range Management archives are made available by the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
