Notes
Park Species Detail: GUMO observation card for 1991 indicates a photo was taken. Per Prival and Goode 2005, "Grace cites one record from the park from the southeast side of Hunter Peak. This species likely inhabits this habitat and lower elevations elsewhere in the park but remains undetected due to its rarity and secretive nature.", Park Species Data Source: Prival and Goode 2005, Bibkey 590642
