34 - Fauna Species List: Most of the following were observed by John Fussell during app roxiinately 50 visits to the marshes to study Black Rails, 19 1978 74- Many of these visits were made at night Amphibians Amphibians are ostensibly absent in these marshes. However, about 11 nm. 31 May 1974, there was an apparently Irugc chorus of frogs Ln the r.inrshes northwest of N.C. 12. This was four days after a very heavy (3 + inches) rain. Species identified by rail were: Southern toad Bufo terrestris Southern cricket frog Acris ^ryllus gryllus Green tree frog Hyla cmerea Pine woods treefrog Hyla femoralis Little grass frog Limhaoedus ocularis Reptiles Northern diamondback terrapin Malaclemys terrapin ceutrata VJater snake Natrix sipedon williaraengelsi?
