Summary of Conservation Priority Bird Species in Nevada

This file summarizes conservation priority species in the Nevada region. It lists the status of the species in each major bird conservation planning document that is available to GBBO at the time of this version. Only species that received the equivalent of a "moderate to high" ranking of conservation concern in at least one of the plans were included. Any other rankings were only listed if they were in disagreement with other plans. No entry means that the species received no ranking under that plan.
