Camas pocket gopher
Small species of burrowing rodent from Oregon

The camas pocket gopher (Thomomys bulbivorus), also known as the camas rat or Willamette Valley gopher, is a rodent, the largest member in the genus Thomomys, of the family Geomyidae. First described in 1829, it is endemic to the Willamette Valley of northwestern Oregon in the United States. The herbivorous gopher forages for vegetable and plant matter, which it collects in large, fur-lined, external cheek pouches. Surplus food is hoarded in an extensive system of tunnels. The dull-brown-to-lead-gray coat changes color and texture over the year. The mammal's characteristically large, protuberant incisors are well adapted for use in tunnel construction, particularly in the hard clay soils of the Willamette Valley. The gophers make chattering sounds with their teeth; males and females make purring (or crooning) sounds when they are together, and the young make twittering sounds. Born toothless, blind and hairless, the young grow rapidly before being weaned at about six weeks of age.

Although the camas pocket gopher is fiercely defensive when cornered, it may become tame in captivity. While population trends are generally stable, threats to the species' survival include urbanization, habitat conversion for agricultural use and active attempts at eradication with trapping and poisons. It is prey for raptors and carnivorous mammals, and host to several parasitic arthropods and worms. Scientists believe that the gopher's evolutionary history was disrupted when the Missoula Floods washed over the Willamette Valley at the end of the last ice age. The floods almost completely inundated its geographic range, which may have caused a genetic bottleneck as survivors repopulated the region after the waters receded.

Taxonomy

There are six genera of North American pocket gophers: Cratogeomys, Geomys, Orthogeomys, Pappogeomys, Thomomys, and Zygogeomys.1 The camas pocket gopher is a smooth-toothed pocket gopher of the genus Thomomys, within the pocket-gopher family Geomyidae.2 The incisors of gophers in the genus Thomomys have characteristically smooth anterior surfaces, while those of Geomys have two deep grooves per tooth and those of Cratogeomys have a single groove.3 The camas pocket gopher is a member of the subgenus Megascapheus, established in 1903, at that time for the camas pocket gopher alone.45 Taxonomists subsequently assigned other gophers to the same subgenus.6 The name Thomomys derives from the Greek σωρός (heap) + μῦς (mouse), probably describing the mounds of excavated soil produced by the burrowing gopher.7 Bulbus translates as "bulb" in Latin, and the word for "devour" is voro.8 Naturalist David Douglas reported that the gopher consumed bulbs of the camas lily,9 and Vernon Bailey later attributed the lack of camas lilies in areas inhabited by the gopher to the bulbs being eaten.10 However, naturalist H. M. Wight observed that the gopher ate primarily dandelion greens, and was skeptical that it was a large consumer of bulbs.1112

Early history

The taxonomy of the camas pocket gopher and its genus, Thomomys, have a convoluted history.13 According to a review article published by the American Society of Mammalogists in 1987, Johann Friedrich von Brandt was the first to refer to the camas pocket gopher as Thomomys bulbivorus in an 1855 article published by the Imperial Academy of Sciences.14 In the 1855 article, Brandt refers to Tomomys bulbivora without the "h" and ending with an "a".15 He writes parenthetically "(man schreibe nicht Thomomys)".16 The authors of the 1987 review note that they did not see Brandt's actual article, but source the textbook The mammals of North America published in 1981.17

Early confusion arose from writings by John Richardson between 1828 and 1839.18 Although he describes six species in the genus, according to later critics he was unfamiliar with all specimens.19 Richardson's descriptions of the animals and the figures in the text were also criticized.20 His 1829 Fauna boreali-americana describes a type specimen of camas pocket gopher obtained from the "banks of the Columbia River, Oregon", the northern limit of the gopher's geographic range.2122 This was probably Portland, at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, the only place on the Columbia where subsequent specimens have been found.23 The present location of this initial specimen is uncertain;24 reportedly stored at the Hudson Bay Museum, it could not be located in 1915.25 When Richardson made his first examination, the specimen was apparently incomplete;26 although Joel Asaph Allen wrote in 1893 that it consisted only of the skin,27 Richardson described the skull and facial features in detail.28

In Fauna boreali-americana, Richardson assigns the mammal to the now-defunct genus Diplostoma described by Rafinesque in 1817.29 He named it Diplostoma ? bulbivorum.30 Illustration-labeling errors in Richardson's book further confounded subsequent taxonomists; the plate was labeled Diplostoma douglasii.31

There is a specimen of a quadruped in the Hudson's Bay Museum, which Mr David Douglas informs me is the animal known on the banks of the Columbia by the name of the camas-rat, because the bulbous root of the Quamash or Camas plant (Scilla esculenta) forms its favourite food. The scull is wanting, and the animal, therefore, cannot be with certainty referred to a genus, but the form of its exterior cheek-pouches leads me to think that it may belong to the diplostoma of M Rafinesque-Schmaltz.

— John Richardson, Fauna boreali-americana, 182932

The confusion around the species' taxonomy and identification amplified when naturalist Spencer Fullerton Baird interpreted Richardson's reports.33 The camas pocket gopher's large size led Baird to conclude that the animal's measurements (reported by Richardson) were an artifact of its taxidermy preparation.34 Baird was also apparently in error about the location from which the specimen was taken,35 attributing the name Thomomys bulbivorus to a set of previously collected specimens later known as the California Gopher.36 This confusion was echoed by subsequent authors.37 The article on gophers in the 1879 edition of the American Cyclopædia has an illustration captioned "California Gopher (Thomomys bulbivorus)".38 The ninth edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica (published during the late 19th century) mistakenly reports Thomomys bulbivorus as abundant along the central California coast.39

Clarifications

Although Baird and Elliott Coues were involved in early assessments of the genus, according to Allen neither ever saw a specimen of the camas pocket gopher (T. bulbivorus).40 Allen obtained and examined two large adults (male and female) collected in Beaverton, Oregon, in May 189041 which were considerably larger and darker than previously examined specimens.42 Skull features and white markings around the mouth and anus also differed.43 His findings and the specimen-collection location helped identify the camas pocket gopher as a species separate from California gophers.44 The California specimens were classified by Eydoux and Gervais as Oryctomys bottae, now known as Thomomys bottae (Botta's pocket gopher).45 They were found near Monterey, California, over 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) south of the now-recognized range of the Camas pocket gopher.46

The distribution of Elliot's "great pocket gopher" (as it was known) extended along the California coast "north of San Francisco."47 James Audubon and John Bachman reassessed the taxonomy on the camas pocket gopher in the late 1800s. They referred it as the "camas rat". They reclassified the gopher as Pseudostoma borealis.48 They rejected Diplostoma as a genus, and assigned Diplostoma bulbivorum as synonymous with P. borealis. They attributed any differences described by Richardson to artifact, from a specimen that was "twisted and disfigured" in preparation.49 Based on observations of taxidermy specimens in Europe, they suggested that Townsend's pocket gopher (Geomys (Thomomys) townsendii) belonged to the same species.50 In 1875, the camas pocket gopher was reported as a sub-species of the northern pocket gopher (Thomomys talpoides),.51 During the 1920s H. M. Wight referred to it colloquially as the "Willamette Valley gopher".52

Current phylogeny

In 2008, a team of biologists from the University of California, Berkeley and Harvard University published multilocus phylogenetic analysis results of the genus Thomomys. The camas pocket gopher was found to be well separated from other taxa in the subgenus Megascapheus. These findings suggested that the camas pocket gopher was a sister to the other taxa in the subgenus, but the relationships between those other animals was less clear.53 Only one camas pocket gopher was included in this study, which limited the ability to distinguish features such as monophyly.54 The following cladogram was presented showing the placement of the camas pocket gopher among its closest relatives:55

Botta's pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae)

Patterns of genetic variation in the camas pocket gopher have been studied.56 Although there are no subspecies, there is substantial genetic diversity within the species. Its genetic patterns are consistent with limited inbreeding within specific populations.57 This is similar to patterns described in Botta's pocket gopher and the southern pocket gopher, both of which are members of the same genus. However, it contrasts with patterns noted in Baird's pocket gopher and the plains pocket gopher, members of a separate genus, Geomys, which showed a higher degree of inbreeding.58

The species' genetic diversity is similar to that of other pocket gophers occupying a larger geographic range and diversity of habitat.59 Compared to Townsend's pocket gopher, which is distributed across a much larger area, but less diverse habitat, it is more genetically heterogeneous.60 Although there is considerable differentiation between separate populations of camas pocket gophers, their genetic variability does not affect the mammal's appearance.61 Study of the effects of genetic change over time revealed a pattern affected by a cataclysmic event across the species' entire geographic area about 13,000 years ago.62 Such an event would cause a population bottleneck, leading to scattered, isolated populations.63

Description

The camas pocket gopher is, by a small margin, the largest member of its genus (Thomomys).64 The fur is a dull brown above and dark, leaden gray beneath.65 There are often patches of white on the chin, throat and around the anus,66 and it has blackish ear and nose markings.67 The external ear is a thickened rim of tissue.68 During the summer, the gopher's coat is short and coarse; winter pelage is longer and furrier.69 The coat of the young is similar to the adult summer coat, but with more sparsely distributed fur; the abdominal skin may be visible.70

Like other gophers, it has small eyes and ears and a nearly hairless tail. Its shoulders are broader than its hips. It is pentadactyl, with five claws on each foot. The claws on its forefeet are longer than those on its hind feet, and its middle claws are longest.71 The front claws of the camas pocket gopher are short and weak relative to its size.72 It employs plantigrade locomotion. The male is larger than the female, measuring an average 300 mm (12 in) in length. A large male weighs about 500 g (18 oz).73 One male specimen was 321 mm (12.6 in) long and weighed 633.8 g (22.36 oz).74 Females are about 271 mm (10.7 in) long. The tail measures 90 mm (3.5 in) in the male and 81 mm (3.2 in) in the female. An adult male's hind feet measure 40–43 mm (1.6–1.7 in), and an average female's hind feet measure 39 mm (1.5 in).75 There are four mammary glands: two in the inguinal region and two in the pectoral region, each supplying a pair of nipples.76 Morphologically, it most closely resembles Botta's pocket gopher;77 differentiation can be made based on the concavity of the inner surface of the pterygoids, small claws, more uniform fur coloring and exoccipital groove of the camas pocket gopher.7879

Skull and dentition

The skull of the camas pocket gopher is sturdily proportioned.80 The camas pocket gopher and other smooth-toothed pocket gophers with robust snouts are included in the subgenus Megascapheus.81 Male skulls measure 52 mm (2.0 in) in length across the base and 57 mm (2.2 in) if the incisors are included. The short, wide skull has a relatively short nasal passage. In width, the skull measures 19 mm (0.75 in) across the nasal passages, 30.5 mm (1.20 in) across the mastoids and 36.5 mm (1.44 in) at the zygomatic arches.82 The external auditory meatus is broad and open, although the auditory bullae are confined.83

The dentition of the camas pocket gopher is symmetric, with one set of incisors, one set of premolars, and three sets of molars above and below. This gives a dental formula of 1.0.1.31.0.1.3, for a total of 20 teeth.84 The slender incisors are prominent and distinctive, smooth with yellow surface enamel and white tips due to soil abrasion.85 These distinctive, large, protuberant upper incisors give the gopher a buck-toothed appearance.8687 The lips do not cover the incisors, but close behind them. There are faintly visible grooves on the inner aspect of the upper incisors, which are more pronounced in other members of the genus (such as the Mazama pocket gopher, T. mazama). The upper molars have an alveolar length of 10 mm (0.39 in).88

Cheek pouches

Gophers are burrowing rodents of the family Geomyidae, characterized by fur-lined, external cheek pouches used to gather and transport food.89 The cheek pouches of geomyids such as the camas pocket gopher are controlled by a set of muscles,90 with a sphincter controlling the opening and closing of the pouch. A pair of muscles attached to the premaxilla pull the pouches forward, and paired retractor muscles pull the pouches back.91 These retractor muscles extend back and up from the cheek surfaces, forming a band 7–10 cm (2.8–3.9 in) long and about 2 cm (0.79 in) wide92 attached to aponeurosis of the latissimus dorsi muscle.93

Male genitalia

Like many mammals, the penis of the camas pocket gopher contains a bone, the baculum. Although its baculum was initially reported as smaller than that of other gophers—1.5 mm (0.059 in) high, 1.8 mm (0.071 in) wide at the base and 8.5 mm (0.33 in) long—the examiner did not know if the specimen had reached full maturity.94 Subsequent reports averaged about 2.1 mm (0.083 in) high, 2.2 mm (0.087 in) wide at the base and 10.1 mm (0.40 in) long.95 The phallus' total length averaged 13.5 mm (0.53 in), with the glans covering more than half its length.96

Distribution and habitat

The camas pocket gopher is found in the Willamette Valley and the drainage areas of the Yamhill River and other tributaries of the Willamette River.97 Its range extends north from Eugene to Portland and Forest Grove and west to Grand Ronde.98 A 1920 report of a Pleistocene fossil in Fort Rock, Oregon has been questioned, since it is far outside the species' current geographic range; as of 1987, the specimen could not be located for further evaluation.99

The clay-rich Willamette Valley soils are hard in the dry season, and the gopher's protuberant incisors are well adapted to these conditions.100 Adequate soil drainage and suitable plant food are essential components of the gopher's ideal habitat. Not typically found in wetland areas (where its tunnels would flood), the species is found in seral communities of grasses and shrubs. They are also established in agricultural fields in the Willamette Valley, including fields of alfalfa, wheat and oats. The species has also been found in areas of ecological disturbance with similar terrain features.101

On a geologic timescale, the Willamette Valley has been the site of massive floods.102 During the late Wisconsin glaciation, a series of floods (known as the Missoula or Bretz Floods) occurred.103 The last flood in the series, a massive flood with an estimated 1,693 km3 (406 cu mi) of water flowing at a rate of 42 km3 per hour (412 million ft3 per second) over a 40-hour period,104 occurred about 13,000 years ago. The flood filled the Willamette Valley to a depth of about 122 m (400 ft), in a near-perfect overlay of the camas pocket gopher's range.105 Although the species has been collected above this elevation, such finds are uncommon.106 A temporary lake, Lake Allison, formed.107 Although it is assumed that the gopher lived in the valley before the flood, no fossils have been recovered. The Chehalem Mountains, with a peak elevation of 497 m (1,631 ft), probably provided refuge for survivor populations and survivors would have repopulated in isolated pockets when the waters receded. Before and since the floods, the mountains are thought to have limited gene flow between populations. The relatively narrow, sluggish Willamette River does not appear to obstruct genetic flow in gopher populations.108

Behavior

The gopher has been credited with being one of the most vicious animals known for its size. It has a great deal of courage and fights a man savagely until an opportunity for escape is offered, then it turns and runs as rapidly as possible, attempting to hide from its pursuer.

— H. M. Wight, Economic Entomology: Pamphlets, 1918109

The camas pocket gopher is a mostly solitary herbivore which is active throughout the year and does not hibernate.110 The gopher spends most of its time excavating tunnels in search of food,111 and the hard clay soils of the Willamette Valley pose a challenge.112 Although the gopher's front claws are too weak to dig through the clay (particularly during dry seasons), its large incisors and strongly protuberant orientation are well-adapted for this purpose. Tunnel systems constructed by the camas pocket gopher can be complex, with some tunnels exceeding 240 m (260 yd) in length. About 90 mm (3.5 in) in diameter, the tunnels are up to 0.91 m (3.0 ft) deep.113 When soils are damp the gopher constructs ventilation ducts or chimney mounds (possibly unique to the species),114 to increase ventilation.115 The chimney mounds rise vertically 15–25 cm (6–10 in), are open at the top and are thought to ventilate the burrows in accordance with Bernoulli's principle.116 It is not known if adjacent gopher burrowing systems interconnect.117 Reports differ about whether or not the ranges of the camas pocket gopher and the Mazama pocket gopher overlap; if so, this refutes the previous belief that Oregon gopher ranges do not overlap.118

Although the species is primarily fossorial, it occasionally gathers food near the entrance of a tunnel.119 Dandelions seem to be its favorite food, and are also used as nesting material.120 During breeding season males will enter the tunnels of females, and males and females may make purring (or cooing) sounds when they are together.121 Mothers seem to comfort the young by softly vocalizing,122 with the young twittering in response.123

The camas pocket gopher may behave aggressively when on the defensive, with mammalogist Vernon Orlando Bailey describing the species as "morose and savage."124 However, it may be easily tamed in captivity;125 the female is more readily tamed than the male.126 Another small rodent endemic to the Willamette Valley, the gray-tailed vole (Microtus canicaudus), also uses camas pocket gopher tunnels. Other mammals sharing the range of the camas pocket gopher (and, possibly, its tunnels) include the vagrant shrew, Townsend's mole, the brush rabbit, the eastern cottontail rabbit, Townsend's chipmunk, the California ground squirrel, the dusky-footed woodrat, the North American deermouse, the creeping vole, Townsend's vole, the Pacific jumping mouse, the long-tailed weasel and the striped skunk.127

Varying onset times and duration of the camas pocket gopher breeding season have been reported. Early reports suggested an early-April onset, with the season extending through June. Other reports cited "evidently pregnant" females seen in late March.129 In heavily irrigated areas the breeding season may be longer, extending into early September.130 About four young are born in a litter, although litters as large as nine have been reported.131 The blind, hairless, toothless offspring weigh about 6.1 g (0.22 oz) and are 50 mm (2.0 in) in length.132 During their first six weeks they will begin to crawl, develop cheek pouches, open their eyes and wean from milk to solid food.133 The young then weigh about 86 g (3.0 oz) and measure 164 mm (6.5 in) in length.134 At weeks 8, 10 and 17 they will weigh 101 g (3.6 oz), 160 g (5.6 oz) and 167 g (5.9 oz).135 Some reports indicate that more than one litter may be born in a season.136 Sexual maturity probably develops by the following year's breeding season.137 Although males are fully grown by that time, females may continue to increase in size.138

There was little data as of 1998 on the longevity and mortality of the camas pocket gopher.139 It is presumably prey for carnivorous mammals, and its bones have been identified in regurgitated pellets of raptors such as the great horned owl. Parasites include mites, lice, fleas, roundworms and flatworms. The species' tougher skin may protect it from some fleas known to infest Botta's pocket gopher and the Mazama pocket gopher.140 Mites known to parasitize the camas pocket gopher include Androlaelaps geomys and Echinonyssus femuralis.141 Some authorities report Androlaelaps fahrenholzi as another parasitic mite,142 but a later publication did not report it.143 The chewing louse Geomydoecus oregonus has also been reported.144

Two parasitic worms first discovered in the gastrointestinal tract of camas pocket gophers are the nematode Heligmosomoides thomomyos and the cestode Hymenolepis tualatinensis. Other worms include two nematodes and the cestode Hymenolepis horrida.145

Human interactions

Camas pocket gophers cause significant economic losses, so may be treated as an agricultural pest. Crops damaged include clover, alfalfa and vetch.146 The gophers may eat these crops or damage the roots while burrowing. This can injure the roots and expose them to air, causing them to dry out. Subterranean activity can also damage the roots of fruit trees. Root crops are particularly susceptible to damage and consumption; potatoes, carrots, parsnips and other crops may be eaten on site or dragged off by the gopher for caching in the burrow. Excavated soil can cover grass and limit livestock grazing; freshly sprouted grains may be similarly damaged.147 An estimate of impact from camas pocket gopher activities in the Willamette Valley in 1918 amounted to $1.5 million annual losses.148 Gopher activities can provide a benefit of soil aeration, enhancing water retention after rain or snowmelt. Buried vegetation can also compost, enhancing organic soil content to provide additional benefits.149

Proposed methods for controlling gopher populations in agricultural areas include poisoning dandelions,150 clover, carrots, sweet potatoes and parsnips.151 Camas pocket gophers are larger than other gophers, so conventional gopher traps may fail to capture them.152 Toxic baits and fumigants may also fail, since the gophers will sometimes wall off a segment of the burrow.153 Gophers may also cause local flooding if their tunneling activities damage levees.154

In an effort to mitigate damage by camas pocket gophers to sensitive habitat, the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Institute for Applied Ecology trap and relocate the animals.155 At a site south of Philomath, Oregon, the IAE is working to protect a small but viable population of Kincaid's lupine (Lupinus sulphureus).156 This threatened flower is the primary host plant for the endangered Fender's blue butterfly (Icaricia icarioides fenderi), which is endemic to the Willamette Valley.157158 The gophers are relocated to a nearby location distant from the lupines.159

Conservation status

Citing concerns of urbanization, habitat loss and active attempts at eradication, NatureServe assessed in 2014 the camas pocket gophers' conservation status as vulnerable.160 The conservation status of the camas pocket gopher is classified as "least concern" by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Species Programme, with a stable population trend.161 The IUCN notes that the gopher is common in its range; studies indicate that populations can recover rapidly after traps are removed from an area,162163 and the species may adapt well to environmental changes.164

The IUCN and others express concern about degradation of the species' habitat due to urbanization and agricultural expansion.165166 The total area occupied by the camas pocket gopher is less than 20,000 km2 (7,700 sq mi).167 This area, the Willamette Valley, contains 70 percent of Oregon's human population.168 Although this range probably contains a few protected areas, many preserves in the valley are primarily waterfowl protection for hunters.169 Wetland areas are not suited to the camas pocket gopher, since tunnels are flood-prone. In areas better suited to the gopher (disturbed habitats and pastoral farmland),170 it may be considered a pest and subject to eradication by poisoning and trapping.171
