Updated January 2005

Please Note:

1) Disclaimer. The quantity and quality of data collected by the Idaho Conservation Data Center (IDCDC) are dependent on the research and observations of many individuals and organizations. In most cases, these data are not the result of comprehensive or site-specific field surveys; many natural areas in Idaho have never been thoroughly surveyed. For these reasons, the IDCDC cannot provide a definitive statement on the presence, absence, or condition of biological elements in any part of Idaho. IDCDC reports summarize the existing information known to the IDCDC at the time of the request regarding the biological elements or locations in question. They should never be regarded as final statements on the elements or areas being considered, nor should they be substituted for on-site surveys required for environmental assessments.

2) Known Occurrences. The species listed under each county represent known occurrences based on historic herbarium specimens or field surveys or both. They do not represent potential distributions. If you are in need of information pertaining to a project, a request to the Idaho CDC will produce specific information on species within your project area.
