program, which manages the North
American Reporting Center for
Amphibian Malformations (NARCAM).
Each malformation occurrence
submitted is carefully reviewed by
trained professional herpetologists for
quality and accuracy. Data associated
with the validated reports, including
species, malformation type, and
geospatial information, are made
accessible to the public via the
NARCAM Web site. Information may be
used by scientists and resource
managers within Federal, State, and
local agencies, as well as the general
public, to identify areas where
malformed amphibians have been
reported, and the rates of occurrence.
The NARCAM dataset is the only
publicly available, national dataset on
amphibian malformations.
We will be requesting OMB approval
for an extension of the current form
used for the NARCAM data collection
efforts.
