FIGURE 2. Map of the Lower New River drainage (HUC8:05050004) in West Virginia (WV) showing surveyed localities from our recent fieldwork (2020–2022), highlighting sites containing Desmognathus kanawha, D. marmoratus, no aquatic Desmognathus, and likely candidates for future surveys. Each area was searched for at least 1 person/hour, netting the effluent of disturbed riffle zones adequate to detect Shovel-nosed Salamanders. The New (Kanawha) River is indicated in dark blue, with tributaries in gray. In addition to Piney Creek which we consider a likely site (?), numerous additional creeks and streams in the region remain to be evaluated. Watershed data are projected at 1:24,000 from the National Hydrography Dataset (https://www. usgs.gov/national-hydrography/national-hydrography-dataset), accessed 7 November 2022. Literature record (lit.) from Wooten and Rissler (2011).
