Threatened due to similarity of appearance(T(S /A)):
In the November 4, 1997 Federal Register (55822 - 55825), the northern population of the bog turtle
(from New York south to Maryland) was listed,as T (threatened), and,the southem population (from
Virginia +south to Georgia) was, listed as T(S /A) (threatened due to similarity of appearance). The T
(S /A) designation bans the collection and interstate and international commercial trade of bog turtles
from the southern population. The T(S /A) designation has no effect on land management activities by
private landowners in North Carolina, part of the southern population of the species. In addition to its
official status as T(S /A), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considers the southern population of the
bog turtle as a Federal species of concern due to habitat loss.
