Native: Species naturally occurs in park or region. Plants: Abundance variable from year to year (e.g., desert plants).Animals: Occurs in the park at least once every few years, varying in numbers, but not necessarily every year.Plants: Few individuals, usually restricted to small areas of rare habitat.Animals: Present, but usually seen only a few times each year.Plants: Few to moderate numbers of individuals occurring either sporadically in commonly encountered habitats or in uncommon habitats.Animals: Likely to be seen monthly in appropriate habitat and season.Plants: Large numbers of individuals predictably occurring in commonly encountered habitats but not those covering a large portion of the park.Animals: May be seen daily, in suitable habitat and season, but not in large numbers.Plants: Large number of individuals wide ecological amplitude or occurring in habitats covering a large portion of the park.Animals: May be seen daily, in suitable habitat and season, and counted in relatively large numbers.
Assigned based on judgment as opposed to determination based on age of the most recent evidence. Historical: Species' historical occurrence in park is documented. Not In Park: Species is not known to occur in park.Īdjacent: Species is known to occur in areas near to or contiguous with park boundaries.įalse Report: Species was reported to occur within the park, but current evidence indicates the report was based on misidentification, a taxonomic concept no longer accepted, or other similar problem of error or interpretation. Unconfirmed: Species is attributed to park but evidence is weak or absent. Probably Present: High confidence species occurs in park but current, verified evidence needed. Present: Species occurs in park current, reliable evidence available. One or more Occurrence Tags may be associated with each Occurrence value. Mountain cottontail (Nuttall's cottontail), Sylvilagus nuttalli.Black-tailed jack rabbit, Lepus californicus.Snowshoe hare, Lepus americanus tahoensis.Deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus gambeliiįive species of shrew and two species of mole are founded throughout the park.Mountain pocket gopher, Thomomys monticola.Western gray squirrel, Sciurus griseus.Golden-mantled ground squirrel, Callospermophilus lateralis.Montane vole, Microtus montanus montanus.Yellow-pine chipmunk, Tamias amoenus amoenus.Douglas's squirrel, Tamiasciurus douglasii.Most of the remaining genera are represented by only a single species like marmots, aplodontia, and porcupines. Mice (8 species) and their allies, chipmunks (3 species), and squirrels (6 species) constitute more than half of the rodent species in the park. The order also includes lesser known taxa like voles. The best known members of rodentia found in the park are mice, chipmunks, squirrels, and gophers. The only ungulate in the park is the mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus.
