Abstract:

This document is a summary of work completed in the East-central Idaho Watersheds. The information summarized here can be applied to state biodiversity, conservation, and water quality enhancement projects on a watershed basis. Assessment of the quality and condition of plant communities and the occurrence of rare plant and animal species allowed us to categorize 36 wetland sites based on conservation intent. Twelve wetlands are high priority due to species richness and condition and full protection is the priority. The biological significance of the surveyed wetland sites and abstracts for rare plant communities, plant species, and animal species are provided to guide management activities. Land managers can apply the process presented here to categorize wetlands which were not surveyed.
