SPECIES LIST COMPILED DURING A SHORT-TERM BIOBLITZ OF THE
AQUATIC AND TERRESTRIAL HABITATS OF OTTER CREEK, VIGO
COUNTY, INDIANA
On October 7, 2005, the Rivers Institute at Hanover College in collaboration with
the Biodiversity and Natural Areas Committee of the Indiana Academy of Science (IAS)
hosted a short-term BioBlitz on Otter Creek, a tributary of the Wabash River, in Terre
Haute, Indiana. The BioBlitz was held in conjunction with the 2005 symposium on the
Wabash River that is featured in the 2006, 115(2) issue of the Proceedings of the Indiana
Academy of Science. As noted in the abstract below, we collected a total of 370 species.
It was not feasible to publish the entire species list in the Proceedings, instead we
published a summary list in the paper and decided to post the complete list on the IAS
website. Thanks to Marcia Moore, Butler University, for configuring this information for
the IAS website. Thanks also to the volunteer scientists and naturalists who participated
in the BioBlitz. The Rivers Institute at Hanover College is funded by a generous gift
from the Lilly Endowment, Inc.
ABSTRACT (taken from the article in the Proceedings). A short-term
(approximately three hour) BioBlitz (rapid assessment of the species living in a particular
area at one time) was conducted in the vicinity of Otter Creek, a tributary of the Wabash
River in Vigo County, Indiana on October 7, 2005. A total of 35 scientists and naturalists
divided into aquatic, terrestrial animal, and terrestrial plant teams to survey different
taxonomic groups. The teams recorded a total of 370 species: 205 plant species, 43
fungus, 9 insect, 8 bivalve, 2 crayfish, 52 fish, 6 amphibian, 34 bird, and 11 mammal
species (with some additional aquatic and mammal sampling outside the three-hour
period). Species found were representative of the lower Wabash River drainage.
BioBlitz events vary in scientific value, but can provide valuable scientific information as
1
well as serve as a vehicle for public education about the natural world and conservation
issues. In the published paper, we compare the results of the Otter Creek survey to other
BioBlitz events in the Midwest.
