The type locality along the South Fork of the Payette River near Lowman is in a steeply sided, sparsely pine-forested gorge (Fig. 6A) that has experienced intense forest fires. From 1908 to 2000, canopy fires burned more than 50% of the Boise National Forest in central Idaho. Large fires have a huge effect on vegetation, geomorphology, stream hydrographs (

Pine Flat Creek (Fig. 6B) and Archie Creek are small, perennial streams descending steep canyon slopes. Their lower sections run thru dry open ponderosa pine forests. At higher elevations on sun and wind-exposed south-facing slopes, the vegetation is primarily open scrub. Pine Flat Creek descends a steep scrubby hillside; pine forest is restricted to lower reaches near the Payette River. Archie Creek descends its watersheds at a gentler grade. Both of these creeks near their confluence with Payette River are only about 1.5 m bank-full-width, and are confined primarily to channels with stabilized vegetated banks. Consequently, there are very few gravel bars on which to search for beetles, even at low water. High water for these creeks most likely occurs

, during rapid melt of the snow at higher elevations on adjacent hillsides coincident with wet spring storms. Because the watersheds these creeks service are so small, large thunderstorms and cloudbursts, by themselves, also may cause significant peaks in runoff during summer and fall months after the snow pack has melted at high elevation. In exceptionally dry years, both of these creeks may actually dry up to the extent that even lower sections are without surface-flowing water. However, on 25

(2008) both creeks had nearly one meter of surface water stream width. Given their small watersheds, it is likely that major sections of both streams, especially high up where slopes are steep and the vegetation scrubby, dry up even in average years.

populations in hot dry regions at low elevations appear to aestivate or go into early hibernation, probably in August. Very few teneral specimens have been collected; however, males with soft, poorly chitinized median lobes are common in late summer and fall. This suggests that adults emerge from pupal chambers in late summer through early fall and overwinter as adults. Presumably they escape winter-spring floods by migrating out of the floodplain to higher positions along stream banks to hibernate in the fall before freeze-up, however they probably do not go very far. Once snow packs melt and daytime temperatures approach 10°C (late March and early April at lower elevations in Idaho), adults again become active on the surface. Given the fact that surface-active
