1 Flora and fauna of the Rocky Fork Tract, with implications for inventorying southern Appalachian nongame species. Melissa Foster M.S. Candidate Forestry Wildlife and Fisheries The Rocky Fork Tract: 1
2 Four Rivers Environmental Coalition Short duration, effort-intensive survey Advantages Rapid assessment Low cost Expert participation Citizen involvement Disadvantages Inclement weather can impact results Limited capture methods Effectiveness? Justification: Wanted more info on nongame community Great chance to evaluate BioBlitz! Blit Vegetative community never surveyed Objectives 1) Compile vegetative species list 2) Estimate herpetofaunal and small mammal species richness 3) Evaluate efficacy of BioBlitz 4) - Evaluate common inventory and monitoring methods for Southern Appalachian nongame assemblages 2
3 Study Area 150 ha (4%) 3 km 0.5 km Methods (1) Vegetation 3 km 0.5 km Herbaceous } Fern Woody Comprehensive Limited 3X: Early May Mid-June Late August Methods (2) Herpetofaunal Sampling Drift fence Pitfall & funnel traps Cover boards wood & tin Visual Encounter Surveys Anuran call surveys 3 km 0.5 km 3
4 Methods (2) Small Mammal Sampling Sherman live traps Pitfall Traps Methods (2) Estimating Species Richness Species- Accumulation Curves Chao Estimator Methods (3) Evaluate Bioblitz BioBlitz: June 2006 Traditional: June-Aug 2007 Assumption: -No extirpation -No colonization 1. Compare species lists Anurans, Caudates, Snakes, Small Mammals 2. Compare trapping effort 4
5 Results (1) Floristic composition Total species = 238 Herbaceous = 198 Woody = 30 Fern = 10 County records = 69 (>30% of total) State-Listed = 8 Endangered: Poa palustris Threatened: Hieracium scabrum Angelica atropurpurea Special concern: Castenea dentata (saplings) Galium asprellum Galium triflorum Goodyera repens Panax quinquefolius Discussion (1) Floristic composition Richness underestimated: Spring ephemerals Ferns Woody species Only 4% surveyed Rocky Fork contributes significantly to regional biodiversity! Results (2) Herp Species Richness 50 er of Species Numbe Number of Individuals 26 species captured 27 species; 95% CI = [26, 34] 5
![CI = [12, 26]](/docs-images/85/92044936/images/6-16.jpg "Captures: 9%")
6 Results (2) Herp Species Richness In need of management: Percent of Captures: 18% 8% 9% 9% 13% 17% Desmognathus Plethodon Eurycea Thamnophis D. Rana P. monticola welleri clamitans glutinosus wilderae carolinensis sirtalis Results (2) Small Mammal Richness 30 ber of Species Num Sampling Period 11 species captured 13 species predicted; 95% CI = [12, 26] Results (2) Small Mammal Richness In need of management: Percent of Captures: 9% 31% 32% Sorex cinereus Sorex fumeus Sorex longirostris Napaeozapus Ochrotomys Zapus Peromyscus hudsonius nuttalli insignis sp. 6
7 Discussion (2) Species Richness High Richness: 47 known species 60 possible 8 in need of management Rocky Fork contributes significantly to regional biodiversity! Results (3) Efficacy of BioBlitz Traditional Both BioBlitz Snakes Caudates Small Mammals Why the Difference? Seasonal species activity Expert ID Survey methods Weather 2007 Drought Luck 7
8 Results (3) Efficacy of BioBlitz Traditional Both BioBlitz Snakes Caudates Small Mammals Anurans Why the Difference? Seasonal Detection Movements and calls associated with breeding Recommendation: Anuran call surveys Best detection Low effort and cost NAAMP Guidelines: - 4 sampling periods Results (3) Trap Effort Pitfall trap nights Funnel trap nights Tin CB flips Wood CB flips Anuran call surveys Visual Surveys Sherman trap nights Mammal Pitfall trap nights Traditional BioBlitz 506 > > h > > > = h 2400 > > 8
9 Conclusions BioBlitz just as effective with less effort Caudates, snakes, small mammals Recommend BioBlitz + anuran call surveys But it depends on your goals Caution! One site Extreme drought Further study recommended Implications: Biologically important area: Vegetation Herps, Small Mammals Birds (Welch 2001) Bats (BioBlitz) Blue ribbon trout streams High black bear density Aesthetics.
