| SRank:
priority ranking (1 to 5) based on
the number of occurrences of an element
within a State. |
| S1 |
Very
Rare: 1 to 5 occurrences in the State
or very few individuals or acres within
the state. |
| S2 |
Rare:
6 to 20 occurrences in the State or
few individuals or acres within the
state. |
| S3 |
Uncommon
or Restricted: 21 to 50 occurrences
in the State, either rather rare throughout
a fairly wide range, or fairly common
in a rather restricted range within
the State. |
| S3S4 |
Fairly
Common: 51 to 100 occurrences and found
over a rather wide range within the
State. |
| S4 |
Apparently
Secure: more than 100 occurrences within
the State, though it could be quite
rare in some parts of the State. |
| S5 |
Demonstrably
Secure: more than 100 occurrences within
the State. |
| S#B |
State
Breeding: populations which breed and
tend to be present in the state year
round; generally used in conjunction
with SN Rank when taxon has both migratory
(non-breeding) and non-migratory (breeding)
populations. |
| S#M |
State migratory transient conservation status: where the population of a species occurs regularly on migration at particular staging areas or concentration spots where the species might warrant conservastion attention. |
| S#N |
State Non-breeding: typically non-breeding or wintering in the State. |
| SH |
State
Historic: historical occurrences in
the state, perhaps having not been
verified in the past 20 years, and
suspected to be still extant. |
| SU |
State
Unrankable: unrankable at the State
level. |
| SX |
State
Extirpated or Extinct: considered to
no longer occur within Arizona. |
| SE |
State
Exotic: may be native elsewhere in
the United States, but is an established
exotic within the State; numeric designations
as for state rank. |
| SEH |
State
Exotic Historic: exotic within the
state and not verified within the past
20 years. |
| SER |
State
Exotic Reported: reported from the
State, but without persuasive evidence
to either accept or reject the report;
if it does occur in the State it is
an established exotic. |
| SNA |
Conservation status rank is not applicable to the element at the state level. Includes former state ranks SA (State Accidental), SP (State Potential), SR (State Reported), SRD (State Reported but Doubtful), SRF (State Reported Falsely), SHYB (Hybrid). These pseudo ranks and all other qualifiers or pseudo ranks are now indicated through the use of new fields in the Distribution Data grid and Distribution Comment field in the Tracker database. |
| SNR |
The state rank is not yet assigned (NR-not ranked). This includes the former state rank S?. |
