Herpetofauna Inventory at Everglades National Park in 2000-2003 - Data Package

Metadata Updated: October 23, 2025

Everglades National Park (EVER) protects 610,502 ha of natural areas at the extreme southern tip of Florida. EVER consists primarily of shallow seasonal wetland habitats including marshes, sloughs, cypress forests, and mangrove forests. In addition, a portion of the park consists of upland habitat; primarily pine forests and tropical hardwood hammocks. These habitats combined make up a heterogeneous matrix of open grasslands and forested wetlands and uplands. An inventory of amphibian species in Everglades National Park was conducted during 2000 to 2003. The goals of the project were to create a georeferenced inventory of amphibian species, use new analytical techniques to estimate proportion of sites occupied by each species, look for any signs of amphibian decline (missing species, disease, die-offs, etc.), and to establish a protocol that could be used for future monitoring efforts. Primary survey methods were visual encounter surveys (VES) and vocalization surveys but trapping and PVC pipe refugia were used as well.
