Book Description
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants - Designation of Critical Habitat for Dusky Gopher Frog (Previously Mississippi Gopher Frog) (US Fish and Wildlife Service Regulation) (FWS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants - Designation of Critical Habitat for Dusky Gopher Frog (Previously Mississippi Gopher Frog) (US Fish and Wildlife Service Regulation) (FWS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, designate critical habitat for the dusky gopher frog under the Endangered Species Act. In previous publications, we used the common name "Mississippi gopher frog" for this species. We are taking this action to fulfill our obligations under the Act. Land in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, and Forrest, Harrison, Jackson, and Perry Counties, Mississippi, is being designated under a court approved settlement agreement to finalize critical habitat for the species. The effect of this regulation is to conserve the habitat upon which dusky gopher frog depends. This book contains: - The complete text of the Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants - Designation of Critical Habitat for Dusky Gopher Frog (Previously Mississippi Gopher Frog) (US Fish and Wildlife Service Regulation) (FWS) (2018 Edition) - A table of contents with the page number of each section
Modeling Occupancy and Habitat Suitability to Guide Management for the Gopher Frog (Rana Capito) in South Georgia

Book Description
The Gopher frog (Rana capito), a species of concern in Georgia, has suffered population declines corresponding with the loss and alteration of southeastern Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) ecosystems. Identifying habitat associations and remaining suitable habitat for the Gopher frog are essential first steps for implementing effective conservation management to sustain the species. In this study, I investigated Gopher frog and anuran occupancy among ponds within the Alapaha River Wildlife Management Area (ARWMA) using automated recording devices, dipnetting surveys, and egg mass surveys. I modeled detection rates and occupancy for the Gopher frog and a suite of winter-breeding anurans as a function of hydroperiod and canopy cover. I tested a technique to evaluate wetland hydroperiods of herbaceous and forested wetlands at ARWMA using a data set developed from Landsat imagery, and I developed a habitat suitability model that uses wetland and upland habitat attributes to identify potential breeding ponds for Gopher frogs at ARWMA.

Book Description
Frogs that survived to the end of the study located a burrow within their initial days in the terrestrial environment and remained there for the rest of the life of their transmitter. Although my study ponds were located primarily in open-canopy longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) habitat, areas surrounding some of the ponds contained patches of closed-canopy habitat that had been invaded by hardwood trees (e.g., Quercus spp.) as a result of fire suppression. Emigrating frogs migrated nonrandomly at these ponds, moving through the center of the largest patch of open-canopy habitat, and thereby avoiding the edges where the closed-canopy habitat occurred. Patches of open-canopy habitat contained higher densities of burrows than closed-canopy patches, suggesting that frogs select open-canopy habitats because burrows are more abundant in those areas. Conservation of gopher frogs requires protection of large areas of terrestrial habitats surrounding breeding ponds, as well as protection of populations of burrowing vertebrates. Terrestrial habitats must be managed appropriately, which includes using frequent prescribed fire in the uplands and burning all the way to the edges of ponds.
