The Refugeand surrounding area are known to contain one of the greatest concentrations of imperiledspecies to be found in North America, 13 of which occur nowhere else in the world. Of these,the shoals spiderlily known locally as the Cahaba lily has come to symbolize the beauty andsignificance of the region.

Description

The Watercress Darter Etheostoma nuchale is one of the most imperiled fishes in the southeastern U.S. and is listed as endangered on the U.S. endangered species list. The species is restricted to five springs and spring runs within the Greater Birmingham Metropolitan Area in Jefferson County, AL. Maintaining these five populations is a primary goal as delineated in the recovery plan for the species, and monitoring of these populations is essential to achieving that goal.
