The park is well within the range of this species and contains suitable habitat in the form of wet meadows, swamps, and shallow mud-bottomed streams. This species could have a low density within the park. Tiebout, 2003., Park Species Data Source: Yahner et al., November 1999. NPBIB-548452., Accepted Detail: Hulse, A. C., C. J. McCoy, and E. J.
