Alabama's Federally Listed Species

By County - April, 2011
The Alabama County Species lists will now be maintained through our ECOS website. We will still provide critical habitat lists on this page but you will not need to click on the county name to access the county list through ECOS. We are continually updating this list and, therefore,
it may be incomplete and is provided strictly for informational
purposes. This list does not constitute any form of
Section 7 consultation. We recommend that you contact our office
(Daphne, AL Field Office - USFWS) for more
current, site specific information prior to project
activities. To be certain of occurrence, surveys should
be conducted by qualified biologists to determine if
a Federally protected species occurs within a project
area. Locations of designated critical habitat have also been included for your information. You can also take a look at our critical habitat web portal, featuring CH maps across the country.
