Appendix 8. Focus Species Associated with Snags, Cavity Trees, or Downed Woody Material Region Ecosystem North South Aspen-Birch See footnote 1 See footnote 1 Northern Hardwood American marten 2 Barred owl Pileated woodpecker Black-backed woodpecker Fisher 2 Barred owl Pileated woodpecker Oak-Pine Fisher Pileated woodpecker Barred owl Hemlock American marten Fisher Spruce-Fir American marten Black-backed woodpecker Pileated woodpecker Fisher Northern White Cedar Black-backed woodpecker 1 Because aspen and birch are typically too small for pileated woodpeckers and barred owls, no focus species associated with snags, cavity trees, and downed woody material were assigned to this type. However, because aspen and birch are prone to internal decay, they are valuable but short-lasting cavity trees for the many species that utilize smaller trees. 2 Marten and fisher benefit from a variety of structures that provide cover for small mammals that are their prey, including downed logs, brush, stumps, root tip-up mounds, and other features.
