ornithoptera priamus was the first birdwing butterfly to be described . it was actually one of only two birdwings ever described by carl von linné , in 1758 ( the other being troides helena ) . the first description of o . priamus , nevertheless , dates back as early as 1717 , from ambon by vincentius .

the green birdwing ( ornithoptera priamus poseidon / teucrus ) is a beautiful popular birdwing butterfly . its green colors are very bright . another cool thing about this butterfly is that like most birdwings , it has a huge yellow body , much bigger than the average butterfly . note : there are many priamus subspecies that have very minor differences from the poseidon , occasionally we may use a different subspecies than poseidon like priamus teucrus which looks the same as the posiedon except it usually has 2 small yellow dots on top of its hindwings . origin : papua new guinea .

this female of ornithoptera priamus richmondia was feeding on honeysuckle growing over a run - down stable in connondal range state forest , 19 dec 2005 , about 0800 aest ( non - daylight savings ) . she left the flowers after mr j . nielsen took these photographs and flew very close to him , apparantly investigating his bright blue shirt , before flopping off into the forest . ornithoptera in australia at least , have a peculiar flight - wings are held high and moved so that the wing apex makes a complete circle with the wings held high above the thorax , giving them a fluttery , sailing flight . this is often broken by a period of gliding . males in particular glide very spectacularly when diving to investigate a female or a flower .

note , for the birdwing butterflies , genera ornithoptera , trogonoptera and troides , specific and subspecific status follows d ' abrera . subsequent revisions have been referenced but only totally new taxa have been added . subspecies are listed where possible as they may occasionally be listed as full species .
these butterflies are found on new ireland and the solomon islands . in the recent past d’urville’s birdwing , with the dark blue male , was considered a distinct species . however it has now been proved to be a subspecies of priamus by cross breeding with a second sub species and producing fertile offspring .
1 . the foraging activities of the papilionid butterflies ornithoptera priamus poseidon and papilio ulysses , and the solitary bee amegilla sapiens ( apoidea , anthophoridae ) on the shrub stachytarpheta mutabilis were studied in highland papua new guinea . 2 . the insects ' activity patterns were analysed at three sites with differing diurnal microclimate variation . o . priamus and a . sapiens foraged in the morning ( after a period of basking and wing - whirring ) and late afternoon when temperatures were well below daily maxima , whereas p . ulysses showed foraging peaks during the hottest part of the day . 3 . site choice by all 3 species appeared to be determined primarily by temperature , but within the limits imposed by temperature , nectar supplies probably determined which site was visited . 4 . p . ulysses showed interspersed foraging and courtship behaviour , and no behavioural switching was observed for this species . at high temperatures , both o . priamus and a . sapiens ceased foraging and showed territorial and courtship behaviour . this behavioural change allowed avoidance of heat stress , and occurred even when nectar supplies were maintained at high levels . 5 . thermal effects on behavioural switching in these insects are compared with related phenomena in other bees and butterflies .
o . priamus is the best known birdwing butterfly . it enjoys one of the widest distribution of all the birdwings and it has adapted to a wide range of habitats . it exists in many subspecies and forms . there is considerable variation throughout its area and it is found in all shades from green to blue .
peter ! move this one and this urltoken urltoken pictures here . and two priamusa site . and those pictures on the front page , as this subspecies is closer to the nominative than blue urvillianus , which at one time was an independent . and now green priamus even opens with a page kind - throws only to blue .
some authors have attempted to describe some of the subspecies as distinct species , especially o . p . urvillianus . r . straatman , however , cross - paired o . p . urvillianus with o . p . poseidon and found that they produced generation after generation of fertile hybrids . this proved urvillianus to be a subspecies of o . priamus .
superficially the paintings describe the rare birdwing , or ornithoptera , butterflies of tropical new guinea . but , as most of them fly above the treetops , i am really concerned to paint the canopy of the forest on which they depend . for me the leaf structures , patterning , colour and surface quality are of the greatest importance .
for the past thirty years i have been interested in plant structures and growth patterns and recently spent a fair bit of time studying and photographing tropical plants and leaves in borneo and malaysia . i have occasionally painted from photographs but i prefer to design imagined leaf structures knowing that somewhere in the jungle canopy there is probably a tree that looks like my invention . i have only once tried to paint the aristolocia vines on which the ornithoptera caterpillars feed .
shows a female with green colouration in the radial band , in the cell and the outer margin of the forewing , as well as in the submarginal area of the hindwing . mr davies suggests the specimen is tending towards a gynandromorph . never having seen such a form of o . priamus before , this author cannot disagree with this suggestion . please see the enlarged photo for details of the green colouration . it should be noted , however , that after publishing this photo , several collectors have notified me of similar specimens , one of which is in the collection of william garthe , peru , il , usa .
justification : ornithoptera alexandrae has been assessed as endangered under criterion b2ab ( iii ) . the species is very rare and has a very restricted extent of occurrence of 8 , 710 km² , suggesting a vulnerable category , while its area of occupancy of 128 to 140 km² , places it within the endangered category . the species is easily over - represented in population counts of adults . in addition , it is confined to a maximum of five locations and is affected by the conversion of habitat to agriculture , with habitat conversion leading to a decline in available food plant vines . while placed on cites appendix i , with international trade prohibited , this species is highly prized . better monitoring for this species is recommended to keep track of population trajectories .
butterflies are mostly traded dead for the curio market ( collins and morris 1985 , new and collins 1991 ) . between 1998 to 2007 , 306 , 000 butterflies were traded from southeast asia , with 13 , 000 of these being wild - caught ( nijman 2010 ) . there is a distinct shift towards ranched and captive - bred individuals in trade from 2003 onwards ; in 1985 , it was reported that globally less than 10 % of trade was in ranched individuals ( collins and morris 1985 ) . altogether at least 34 different species were recorded in trade , most of which belonged to the birdwing butterflies ( troides and ornithoptera ; nijman 2010 ) . it should be noted that trade in butterflies may be underreported , because of difficulties monitoring . new and collins ( 1991 ) noted that trade is extremely difficult to monitor because transportation of unpinned specimens is easy , especially of comparatively low value species which may instead be traded at high volumes . birdwings can fetch high prices on the market . for example , butterfly collectors have paid high prices for birdwing butterflies of this genus : a pair of ornithoptera meridionalis was reported to have fetched usd 3 , 400 in germany ( melisch and schutz 2000 ) . collectors in the past paid as much as $ 2 , 850 for an imperfect male specimen of o . alexandrae ( collins and morris 1985 ) , however , this species has been listed on appendix i of cites since 1987 , which prohibits international trade in specimens of this species except when the purpose of the import is not commercial ( new and collins 1991 ) . hence , only few import and export records of specimens for scientific study have been reported ( cites 2015 ) .
the main threat to the species is habitat destruction , which has been noted as early as 1971 by d ' abrera who suggested that the species is becoming increasingly rare due to collecting and cutting down of forest which destroys growth of larval food plant . specifically , the species is threatened by habitat destruction for plantation of income - generating crops such as oil palm ( allan 1985 , collins and morris 1985 , parsons 1992 , new 2007 ) . cocoa and rubber plantations have also been a problem in the past ; in fact as early as 1983 , the species was suggested to be endangered because of its limited range and the threats to its forest habitat in the popondetta plain from oil palm and timber industries ( parsons 1983 , allan 1985 ) . overall , it has been suggested that illegal collecting is not comparable with loss of habitat as a threat ( collins and morris 1985 ) . there has been some forest cover loss specifically within the popondetta region between 2001 and 2014 ( hansen et al . 2013 ) . very few of the forests potentially affected by threats from logging and oil palm production are protected under category i and ii levels by the iucn ( new 2016 ) ; fao figures of oil palm plantation area in the country show increases by 72 . 3 % from 1989 to 2013 , with 25 . 3 % stemming from deforestation ( vijay et al . 2016 ) . this species used to feature in the species trade . in the past , an imperfect male specimen of this species fetched as much as $ 2 , 850 ( collins and morris 1985 ) , leading to concern about wild populations and the hope that butterfly ranching would help to take the pressure off wild populations of this and other species of this genus ( parsons 1992 ) . as a result of trading pressures , ornithoptera alexandrae has been placed on cites appendix i in 1987 ( with all other o rnithoptera , troides and trogonoptera listed on cites appendix ii ) ( e . g . , collins and morris 1985 ) . as a result , trade is prohibited with the exception for scientific study . as a result , few records of import / export of specimens exist .

hyloscirtus is a genus of relatively large neotropical frogs in the hylidae family .

this genus was resurrected in 2005 following a major revision of the hylidae family , with the distinguishing features being 56 transformations in nuclear and mitochondrial proteins and ribosomal genes .

of these species , 28 species , previously placed in the hyla genus , were moved to this genus .

the fingers and toes of these frogs have wide dermal fringes .

they are primarily found in foothill and mountain forests in the andes , ranging from bolivia to venezuela , but a few species occur in adjacent lowlands or páramo , and two ( h. colymba and h. palmeri ) are found in panama and costa rica .

they are typically found near streams where they breed .

several species in this genus are seriously threatened by habitat loss , pollution , introduced species ( predation by introduced trout ) , and the chytrid fungus batrachochytrium dendrobatidis .

justification : listed as least concern in view of its wide distribution and presumed large population . this assessment is made on the basis that all subpopulations currently assigned to h . phyllognathus form part of a single clade . however , the taxon likely includes several cryptic species and several of these putative species have sharply declined throughout their ranges ( a . catenazzi pers . comm . 2018 ) .
this species occurs on the amazonian slopes of the cordillera oriental in colombia south to the cordillera central , along the length of the eastern slopes of the andes in ecuador , as well as in cusco , junín , san martín , pasco , and ucayali regions in peru . it occurs at elevations of 410–2 , 190 m asl . this is likely to be a species complex ( a . catenazzi pers . comm . october 2017 ) .
in podocarpus national park , ecuador , it was uncommon in 1998 . it is common in colombia , and in 2002 , it was common in san martín , peru .
some subpopulations from the cloud forests of peru have declined and / or are locally extinct , while subpopulations from other parts of its range have not shown declines ( a . catenazzi pers . comm . october 2017 ) .
due to ongoing localised declines in the extent and quality of habitat , some subpopulations are suspected to be decreasing .
it is an arboreal and aquatic frog found in or along streams in submontane and montane cloud forest . individuals have been seen on low bushes over torrential mountain streams , others have been found on vegetation along streams at night and in bromeliads by day ( duellman 1972 ) . it is not found in secondary forest , and it presumably breeds in streams .
the principal threats to the species are chytridiomycosis and habitat loss caused by shifting small - scale agriculture , livestock grazing , and timber harvesting . subpopulations of h . phyllognathus disappeared from the upper manu national park ( cusco , peru ) following epizootics of chytridiomycosis in the early 2000s ( catenazzi et al . 2011 , 2014 ) . in 2007 , the chytrid fungus batrachochytrium dendrobatidis was detected in this species at ahuashiyacu , san martín ( kosch et al . 2012 ) .
it is present in some protected natural areas in peru and in yanachagana chemillén , manu , and tingo maría national parks . in ecuador , its geographic range overlaps with parque nacional sumaco napo - galeras , parque nacional llanganates , parque nacional podocarpus and parque nacional sangay . in colombia , it occurs in several protected areas .
further research is necessary to understand the observed declines in certain subpopulations in peru . taxonomic work is needed to resolve the taxonomic status of this species ( a . catenazzi pers . comm . october 2017 ) .

justification : listed as near threatened since although its extent of occurrence is probably less than 20 , 000 km2 and its habitat might be declining , thus making the species close to qualifying for vulnerable , it probably occurs in more than ten locations , and its distribution is unlikely to be severely fragmented .
this species is found in the central part of cordillera oriental of the andes ( 4° 40 ' n to 6°n ) , in the cundinamarca , boyacá and santander departments , colombia , at 1 , 750 - 3 , 900m asl .
it occurs in streams and in bromeliads in premontane humid forest , cloud forest , and páramo , and also in open areas and secondary forest , and reproduces in streams .
threats to this species include landscape transformation and habitat loss due to agriculture ( crops and cattle ranching ) , the introduction of predatory trout , and water pollution due to the use of agrochemicals . a batrachochytrium dendrobatidis infection has been reported for this species ( ruiz and rueda - almonacid , 2008 ) .
frost , d . r . 2013 . amphibian species of the world : an online reference . version 5 . 6 ( 9 january 2013 ) . electronic database . american museum of natural history , new york , usa . available at : urltoken .
justification : listed as near threatened given that its extent of occurrence ( eoo ) is estimated at 16 , 438 km 2 and there is ongoing habitat decline in its range . recent survey efforts have consistently recorded the presence of this species in western panama ( hertz et al . 2012 ) , and there is no evidence of continuing population reduction . however , a past range contraction , presence of chytrid infections , and documented past declines ( more than 10 years ago ) suggest that this taxon should be monitored closely .
this species is known from the atlantic slopes of south - eastern costa rica to central panama , from sea level to 1 , 116 m asl , and also from the pacific slopes of eastern panama ( savage 2002 ) . the possible presence of this species in colombia , adjacent to eastern panama , needs to be confirmed . its range , taken as a proxy for extent of occurrence ( eoo ) , is estimated at 16 , 438 km 2 .
little is known about the population size or abundance of this species , but it has undergone drastic declines in western panama in the past , including reserva forestal fortuna ( 1996 - 97 ) , and at el copé ( 2004 ) ; it is still present at low abundance in the darien area ( roberto ibáñez pers . comm . 2007 ) . however , recent survey efforts have produced several records in veraguas ( hertz et al . 2012 ) . in costa rica , the species has not been recorded since 1984 , despite some recent sampling effort in the range ( f . bolaños pers . comm . 2007 , g . chaves pers . comm . 2013 ) .
it inhabits cloud forest or humid lowland and montane forest , where it has been found along streams . the species breeds in swift streams ; eggs are deposited under rocks , and larvae cling to rocks by means of an oral disk ( savage 2002 ) .
chytrid fungus has been found in this species and has been associated with declines in western panama ( see lips et al . 2006 , hertz et al . 2012 ) , and a potential outbreak of chytridiomycosis could be a future threat . it is probably also impacted by the destruction of natural forests for the planting of crops , smallholder livestock ranching , logging , and residential and commercial development .
it is known from several protected areas in panama , and a single park in costa rica ( parque internacional la amistad ) . in view of the risk of chytridiomycosis , the status of this species should be closely monitored , and ex - situ populations should be established . research is needed on current threats and population trends .
frost , d . r . 2017 . amphibian species of the world : an online reference . version 6 . 0 . american museum of natural history , new york , usa available at : urltoken .
justification : listed as vulnerable because its extent of occurrence is less than 20 , 000 km2 , its distribution is severely fragmented , and there is continuing decline in the extent and quality of its forest habitat in the ecuadorian and colombian andes .
this species occurs on the amazonian slopes of the andes in southern colombia ( in caquetá and putumayo departments ) and ecuador ( south to morona province ) . it ranges from 2 , 000 - 2 , 600m asl .
it lives in upper humid montane forest , and it also survives in pastureland and other altered habitats . however , although it is adaptable , it probably cannot tolerate extremely severe habitat clearance , leading to a very open landscape . it is associated with creeks and breeds in streams . individuals have been found on vegetation along small creeks within forests ; tadpoles have been collected in bodies of water with limited movement ( mueses - cisneros , 2005 ) .
the major threats are habitat loss from agricultural development , planting of illegal crops , logging , and human settlement , and pollution resulting from the spraying of illegal crops . the species has a narrow altitudinal range , and lives in habitats where catastrophic extinctions have occurred in other frog species with stream - dwelling tadpoles , perhaps due to chytridiomycosis . mueses - cisneros ( 2005 ) reports that all tadpoles examined in his study lack keratin in their mouthparts ; however , he suggests that this is not necessarily related to chytrid infection .
it occurs in several protected areas in ecuador , including parque nacional llanganates and parque nacional sangay , but is apparently not recorded from any in colombia . there is a need for close population monitoring of this species , given the potential threat of chytridiomycosis .

justification : listed as critically endangered because its area of occupancy ( aoo ) is 8 km 2 , its distribution is severely fragmented , and there is continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat on the eastern cordillera of the colombian andes resulting in an ongoing decline in the number of threat - defined locations .
this species occurs on the western slope of the cordillera oriental in the department of santander , colombia , between 1 , 900–2 , 700 m asl . it may be more widely distributed than existing records indicate . its extent of occurrence ( eoo ) is 106 km 2 and its aoo is estimated to be 8 km 2 .
this species was common , but recent surveys report a drastic decreasing of individuals in type locality due to highway projects . there are no records of it since 2010 ( m . rivera - correa pers . comm . august 2016 ) . due to ongoing decline in the extent and quality of habitat , the population is suspected to be decreasing .
this species lives in streams in cloud forest , but only in old growth forest . the eggs are laid on vegetation and the tadpoles larvae in streams .
habitat loss due to agriculture and cattle ranching , and predation by introduced trout are the major threats to this species . at the type locality , habitat loss is also occurring due to the ongoing highway project .
conservation actions this species has not been recorded in any protected areas . conservation needed there is an urgent need for expanded protection of remaining forest habitats in the colombian andes .

justification : listed as vulnerable because its extent of occurrence ( eoo ) is 3 , 435 km 2 , it is considered to occur in six locations in the cordillera oriental , including protected sites as well as unprotected areas affected by ongoing habitat loss and degradation due to farming activities , mining activities and the presence of trout in the water bodies .
this species occurs on the western slopes of the cordillera oriental , in the departments of santander and norte de santander , colombia , at 1 , 050–3 , 000 m asl . its extent of eoo is 3 , 435 km
the species is apparently common , but there is no information about the population trend . specimens were registered between 2013–2017 , during several week long surveys , in the western flank of the cordillera oriental , santander department . there is no recent information about this species in norte de santander ( f . l . meza - joya pers . comm . march 2017 ) .
it lives in streams in cloud forest , and near streams . the specimens that have been collected near streams have been found in a habitat with certain degree of disturbance , but always associated with pockets of forest ( f . l . meza - joya pers . comm . march 2017 ) . duellman ( 1989 ) described the habitats as ravine containing remnants of cloud forest . eggs are laid on vegetation and the larvae develop in water .
threats to this species include habitat loss due to agricultural cultivation and cattle ranching , gold mining , and predation from introduced trout ( oncorhynchus mykiss ) .
it occurs in reserva biológica cachalú , santuario de flora y fauna guanentá alto río fonce , and estación experimental y demostrativa el rasgón .
a higher conservation category is recommended for the known protected areas to guarantee better protection of the sites and the species ( f . l . meza - joya pers . comm . march 2017 ) .
more information is needed on this species ' distribution , population status , natural history , and threats .
has a robust body and limbs , with a snout - vent length of 68 . 1 - 70 . 5 mm . the snout is truncate viewed both from above and from the side . its head is as wide as it is long . the lips of
are rounded , but not flared . the nostrils point forward and to the side , and are only slightly protuberant . the top of the head and the internarial region are flat . the tongue is broad and fully attached to the floor of the mouth . there is a singular , subgular vocal sac . the tympanum is vertically ovoid , and a thick supratympanic fold runs from the eye to the shoulder . the forearms of
are much thicker than the upper arms . the fingers are broad , with rounded ( but only slightly expanded ) discs . relative finger length , in ascending order , is 1 , 2 , 4 , 3 . fingers are webbed basally . a glandular nuptial pad is present on finger 1 . the hind limbs are robust . the discs on the toes are not expanded . relative toe length , ascending , is 1 , 2 , 3 , 5 , 4 . the feet have some basal webbing ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
group by its unique coloration ( evenly spaced orange spots on a black background ) , grey iris color , poorly expanded discs on the digits , and its glandular nuptial pad ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
coloration in life : the base color of the dorsum is black , and it is spotted with rounded orange patches , some of which may overlap , forming a reticulated pattern around mid dorsum . the markings on the limbs are larger than those on the body . the iris is gray . the ventral surfaces are black with a yellow - cream marbling . the palmar surfaces and undersides of the digits are gray ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
coloration in 70 % ethanol : the orange spots fade to a light orange brown coloration . the ventral surface has diffuse gray marbling on a black surface ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
tadpole morphology : a tadpole at stage 36 had a total length of 89 . 1 mm ( 28 . 4 mm body ) , with a height of 13 . 2 mm . the body is ovoid , and the snout is rounded . a lateral line system is evident . the nostrils are small and oval in shape , and point anterolaterally . the eyes are located dorsolaterally , and are about 3mm in width . an oral disc of width 10 mm is located on the ventral surface of the head , toward the front . the oral disc is completely bordered by two rows of papillae . the tail is robust and muscular ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
tadpole coloration : the dorsum is brown , with scattered cream flecks . the iris is turquoise in color , with a green lavender annulus with white flecks around the pupil . the lateral line system is seen as a line of cream - colored spots . the spiracle and mouth are a translucent cream color . the venter is a red brown color in the forward portion , while the back portion is dark brown ; both have cream - colored dots . the tail is brown for much of its length , becoming a lighter cream color towards the tip . in preservation , the brown colors fade to a grayish brown .
larvae . around stages 40 - 42 , the dorsum becomes gray and the hind limbs change from cream - colored to greenish gray . by stage 44 , the body becomes a yellow - green color , with black mottling on the limbs . early juveniles are yellow green with mottling on the flanks , and the iris and tips of the digits are gray ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
is only known from the type locality , a stream in the montane cloud forest , provincia de imbabura , ecuador . this locality is at the border of reserva eologica cotacachi - cayapas , in the mountain range cordillera de toisan , part of the andes . the species was found between 2720 and 2797 meters in elevation ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
it can be found in the dense shrubbery around the edges of streams ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
has been found active during the evenings and at night , in vegetation near streams ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .
its only known locality is at significant risk due to human modifications and destruction . activities such as logging , burning unregulated agricultural use , cattle grazing , pesticides , and introduction of trout all are detrimental to the survival of this species . threats which have been observed in other andean frogs , such as climate change and pathogen spread , may also negatively impact
the species was named for his royal highness charles , prince of wales , because of his contributions to conservation of tropical ecosystems . he has worked to raise awareness about deforestation , climate change , and the extinctions of rainforest amphibians , using frogs as symbols of his cause ( coloma et al . 2012 ) .

species description based on duellman ( 2001 ) and savage ( 2002 ) . a smallish treefrog ( males to 37 mm , females to 39 mm ) .
the dorsal surface is pale green or sometimes darkens to brown . the dorsal surface often has some light yellow flecking or tiny dark dots . a light yellow stripe is present over the eye and continues to above the arm .
the ventral surface is white or cream , except for the throat and undersurfaces of the limbs , which have a greenish or bluish hue .
males have been heard calling from beneath boulders in streams at different time points throughout the year ( savage 2002 ) . however , breeding likely occurs during the dry season , when streams are low ( savage 2002 ) .
the tadpole body is oval - shaped with a relatively short tail ( savage 2002 ) . the body is brown , with a bronzy hue and some golden flecks ( savage 2002 ) . the tail musculature is darker , and some pigmentation is usually present on the upper tail fin ( savage 2002 ) . tadpoles have a disc - shaped mouth , which they likely use to suction to rocks in swift - moving streams ( savage 2002 ) .

has been assessed as near threatened . this species almost meets the requirements for endangered under criteria b , as it has an extent of occurrence of 1 , 600 km² and is endemic to the black creek river system . there is a reported continuing decline in the quality of this species habitat due to ecosystem modification and ongoing habitat destruction and degradation , however this species is known from a number of collection localities where there appears to be genetic interchange . further research is needed to determine over how much of its range it is undergoing a decline and therefore if it warrants listing in a threatened category .
this species has been collected from over 30 sites , mostly within the black creek system ( burgess and franz 1978 ) . in addition , potential gene flow probably occurs among most or all sites within each system ( k . crandall pers . comm . 2009 ) , and it was found in greatest density in headwater sections ( franz and franz 1979 ) .
this species is found in headwater streams , and in small and large tributaries within its range ( franz and franz 1979 ) . it has been collected in cool , tannic - stained , flowing streams , and was found to be absent from sluggish flowing sections ( franz and franz 1979 ) .
have been recorded in these areas ( k . crandall pers . comm . 2009 ) .
this species has been given a natureserve global heritage status rank of g2 , and was assigned an american fisheries society status of ' threatened ' based on its restricted range and ongoing habitat degradation ( taylor et al . 2007 , natureserve 2009 ) . further research is needed to determine over how much of its range this species is undergoing a decline .

northeastern florida , usa . principally inhabits the black creek and etoniah creek drainages ( burgess and franz , 1978 ; franz and franz , 1979 ) in clay , duval , and putnum counties ; also recorded from one additional small stream in duval county .
known from three stream systems ( black and etoniah creeks , and a small stream near ft . caroline ) , and many collecting sites ( > 30 , mostly black creek ) from within these . potential gene flow probably occurs among most or all sites within each system .
apparently vulnerable to pollution , degraded water quality , and alteration of headwater areas . see g threat comments .
conduct field surveys to determine the extent , distribution , connectivity , and statuses of all occurrences . make special effort to search beyond the black creek system . for each population , record geographic extent , population demographics and densities , types and levels of threats , and kind and degree of protection if any . regularly monitor a large number of sites throughout the species ' distribution .
protect inhabited drainage basins from development to extent possible . encourage developers to maintain ecological integrity within drainage basins ; regulate water quality . acquire remaining portions of etoniah creek florida forever bot project . coordinate with land managers of known sites on conservation lands to assure proper management for species and specific inclusion in their land management plans .
( 250 - 1000 square km ( about 100 - 400 square miles ) ) northeastern florida , usa . principally inhabits the black creek and etoniah creek drainages ( burgess and franz , 1978 ; franz and franz , 1979 ) in clay , duval , and putnum counties ; also recorded from one additional small stream in duval county .
this species is found in headwater streams , small tributaries and large tributaries ( franz and franz , 1979 ) . this species frequents cool , tannic - stained , flowing streams , but is absent from sluggish portions of the streams ( franz and franz , 1979 ) . the most dense population occur in the headwater areas ( franz and franz , 1979 ) . it is usually found in detritus accumulations on the bottom of pools caused by root mats and logs , interspersed between areas of turbulence ( franz and franz , 1979 ) . the substrate usually consists of sand ( hobbs , 1942 ) .
most aspects of its biology require study . studies of life history , fecundity , and precise environmental needs would be valuable . determine tolerances to pollutants , channelization , siltation .
occurrences are based on some evidence of historical or current presence of single or multiple specimens , including live specimens or recently dead shells ( i . e . , soft tissue still attached without signs of external weathering or staining ) , at a given location with potentially recurring existence . evidence is derived from reliable published observation or collection data ; unpublished , though documented ( i . e . government or agency reports , web sites , etc . ) observation or collection data ; or museum specimen information .
separation barriers are based on hydrological discontinuity . additional physical barriers , particularly for secondary and tertiary burrowers , include presence of upland habitat between water connections of a distance greater than 30 m . migration of primary burrowers is generally not hindered by presence of upland habitat unless conditions are very xeric ( dry and desert - like ) ( smith , 2001 ) .
freshwater cave ( troglobitic ) species may occur from near entrances to very deep in cave systems . for cave species , each cave where an observation or collection was recorded ( see minimum eo criteria , above ) constitutes an element occurrence regardless of separation distance unless caves are part of a single hydrological system ( see below ) . occurrences are additionally separated by underground physical barriers to movement . multiple caves within a single hydrological cave system are considered to be a single element occurrence when they are less than one km apart . multiple caves within a single hydrological cave system are considered separate element occurrences when hydrological connections have not been determined or when separated by a distance of at least one km .
