AbstractIn 2017, The Nature Conservancy co-organized an “Expert BioBlitz” to explore a 26-mile stretch of the Wild and Scenic Amargosa River, located in the heart of the Mojave Desert. The event was designed be a rapid-response, high return-on-investment method for the collection of high-quality field survey data in an area that had not been broadly surveyed since 1972. The Expert BioBlitz, documented in this report, involved 36 individuals skilled in the identification of plants, animals, and conservation issues. The group documented 376 species in 48 hours, including rare species that had not been previously found along the river.
