ENDEMIC ANIMALS AND PLANTS
(15 February 2002)
NOTE: THIS LIST IS OUTDATED AND IS MAINTAINED FOR ARCHIVAL PURPOSES ONLY.

As of the date above, the 310 taxa in this list are definitely or probably endemic to Nevada. This means that they occur naturally only in Nevada and nowhere else in the world. The column headed End shows whether each species is definitely or probably endemic, and the column headed Track indicates whether the species is a sensitive plant or animal, a watch-list species, or is not tracked by the Nevada Natural Heritage Program. A handful of Nevada endemics are common and secure enough that they are not currently of conservation concern. We welcome documentation for taxa that should be added to or removed from this list. Older editions of this list remain available on-line.

Further information is available on-line for most endemic taxa in our Detailed Rare Plant and Lichen List and Detailed Rare Animal List, and for some taxa in other lists or reports, or as maps or images. The Nevada Rare Plant Atlas provides more comprehensive information, including habitat, life-history, description, threats, survey status, literature sources, and known locations, for many plant taxa. General information is available for nearly all taxa on the NatureServe Explorer web site. This list must be scrolled to the right for complete viewing, and may be printed from your browser on letter-size paper in landscape format with 0.25-inch side margins. Click on the heading at the top of a column for an explanation of that column.
