Title: 08003 Lake Whales Ridge Arthropods Sampling Observations
Online_Linkage: <http://myfwc.com/research>
Description:
Abstract: Described sampling locations and observations
Purpose:
This project addresses the near-absence of useful information on arthropod animals (insects, spiders, etc.) that are of potential conservation concern because they are restricted to Florida scrub habitat. Florida scrub, which is readily converted to some kinds of agricultural use and to residential, commercial and industrial development, is rapidly disappearing. The most biologically diverse examples of Florida scrub are on the Lake Wales Ridge, which has the only major concentration of scrub plants and animals not found on scrub sites elsewhere in Florida. Over 85% of xeric upland habitat (including scrub, yellow sand scrub and sandhill) on the LWR has been eradicated since European settlement, much of this destruction within the last few decades. This project designed a survey to examine specialized Florida scrub arthropods on protected lands (state, federal, private) on the Lake Wales Ridge (LWR).
Supplemental_Information:
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Point graphics were created based on the provided latitude and longitude in the project database. Although the relative position of the sampling points appeared reasonably consistent with nearby geographic features, the spatial resolution of these points could not be reasonably verified and as such should not be used for navigation or fine scale analysis.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Point graphics were created based on the provided latitude and longitude in the project database. All points were within an acceptable range of the described project boundary. Additionally, all sampling positions appear logical based on sample location description and nearby geographic features.
Completeness_Report:
These data are complete as of the submittal to the SWG grant in 2013
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The point locations are accurate to the precision provided by the Principle Investigators in the submitted database.
