137 Appendix D. Number of observations of mammal species by University of Arizona and Saguaro National Park Inventory personnel by survey type, Saguaro National Park, Rincon Mountain District, 2001 and 2002 (small mammals, bats, and observations of all taxa) and 1999-2005 (infrared-triggered photography). Numbers of observations are not scaled by search effort and should not be used for comparison among species or survey types. See Appendices E and F for additional information on voucher specimens and photographs. Legacy data from: Sumner (1951; SU), Duncan (1990; DU), Davis and Sidner (1992; D&S), Sidner and Davis (1994; S&D), Bucci (2001; BU), Sidner (2003; SI) Swann (2003; SW). Survey type = small mammal trapping (SMT), bat netting (BN), infrared-triggered photography (ITP), and incidental observations (IO). Species in bold-faced type are non-native.
