This represents 81.9% of the official state list. This represents one more species and .3% more than the 1999 comp list. DC set a base mark of 224 species (and 2 possible new ones), for 72.3% of the official DC list. Our thanks to all who contributed to these excellent results. As mentioned previously, the comp lists for 2001 will use a different, more detailed format. Check the web site for a sample. We will post the initial 2001 listing in the next few days.
