Data supporting the Oregon Breeding Bird Atlas
(see data files for a short introduction.)
File: FIND_SPP.TXT
General Description: This data is available in the atlas when you pull up a single hexagon. This lists species that were not found in each hexagon or square, but which were predicted to occur there based on (a) our knowledge of the species' habitat preferences (see Habitat preference by species for file WHRSTATE.TXT), (b) the types of habitats thought to be present (from ONHP data, see Habitat/hexagon for file HAB_HEX.TXT), and (c) the coarse geographic range of the species in Oregon. These species should be searched for in their respective squares and hexagons in the future.

Although we have made the data from this project accessible to anyone,
all the time the authors spent administering this project, as well as time spent
computerizing, organizing, and documenting the data, was uncompensated.
Moreover, not every limitation of the data has been described.
For these reasons, we request that researchers who wish to publish
statistical analyses of these data please contact us first to discuss
the data and opportunities for joint authorship of resulting publications.
Furthermore, we again thank the Oregon Natural Heritage Program and the
USEPA for sharing with us some of the non-avian data sets.

HexagonID
Sequencing Code of Species Predicted but not found
Full Name of Species Predicted but not found
Four-letter Abbreviation of Species Predicted but not found
Was not found in square (S)
Was not found in either hexagon or square (H)
Note: "Predicted" species were those that had a strong (score of 3 or 4 on 4-point scale) association with any mapped habitat in the hexagon or square.
