Okanagan Grassland Species Inventory - Multi-species Report	2009	The south Okanagan grasslands are home to several Red or Blue listed species. During the 2009 field season a BC Conservation Corps crew of two conducted presence/not-detected surveys under a multi-species approach. The crew surveyed for multiple species, across different taxa, while in the field. Target species included, at-risk butterflies (Immaculate Green Hairstreak, Half-moon Hairstreak, Sonora Skipper, Hoffman's Checkerspot and Mormon Fritillary, erinna subspecies), Tiger Beetles, Nuttall's Cottontail, Efferia robber flies, Grasshopper Sparrow, Lark Sparrow, Ground Mantid and Nuttall's Buckmoth. Species specific results and discussions can be obtained in individual species reports housed in the Ministry of Environment's Wildlife Species Inventory database. This multi-species inventory was a new approach to addressing the information gap for many of these species in the south Okanagan. This report discusses methods and key findings that arose during the process. Although this approach presents unique challenges it can be particularly useful for areas such as the southern Okanagan region which supports a high number of species at risk. This report can be used to inform future multi-species initiatives.	wsi_4626_rpt_2009MultiSpecies.pdf (2.2 MB)
