Current through Register Vol. 57, No. 1, January 6, 2025
The following table sets forth the list and conservation status of the State's nongame wildlife species in their respective taxonomic classes. For the vertebrate classes of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians, the list is intended to include all indigenous nongame species. The list does not include marine or diadromous fish. For freshwater fish and all invertebrate classes, the list includes only those species for which the Department has determined that their conservation status is "special concern" (SC). The list is ordered alphabetically by species' common names within each taxonomic class.
