[Dtwg] Listing Status for Diamondback Terrapins throughout their Range

[Gordon, Mandi]

Hi Eric –

DBT are considered a species of greatest conservation need here in Texas. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has a webpage dedicated to the species: https://tpwd.texas.gov/huntwild/wild/species/terrapin/#:~:text=Texas%20diamondbacks%20are%20one%20of,to%20that%20of%20the%20ocean. More information about the species stats in Texas can be found on their SGCN website: https://tpwd.texas.gov/huntwild/wild/wildlife_diversity/nongame/tcap/sgcn.phtml.

Good luck!

Eric: I don't believe the diamondback terrapin in New York is classified as endangered, threatened, or special concern, although, based on its limited geographic distribution in the state, a classification of at least special concern is warranted.

Good Afternoon Everyone,

I am in the middle of publishing a manuscript of a population study I conducted on Diamondback Terrapins in Florida. One of the Reviewer's comments on my paper was to write out all of the states the list terrapins as either endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. I was using the Watters 2004 paper, but it is slightly outdated. I was hoping that the working group members might be able to tell me what the listing status for terrapins is in your state, since I have seen some inconsistencies while searching certain government websites. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
