rivers and estuaries, and into smaller rivers to spawn. The blue sucker, 

 Cycleptus elongatus , is found in the larger rivers of coastal Alabama. 



None of the crawfishes, shrimps, gastropods, or naiad mollusks on the 

 recommended state list of endangered and threatened species are found in 

 either Mobile and Baldwin Counties (Boschung 1976). 



Plants 



Fifty-eight species of plants found in Mobile and Baldwin Counties are 

 classified as endangered, threatened, or of special concern (Freeman et al . 

 1979). On the state list 7 species are identified as endangered, 19 as 

 threatened, and the remainder as of special concern. As of June 19S5, six of 

 these species were under consideration for inclusion on the Federal list of 

 endangered and threatened species (vide Federal Register notice of November 

 28, 1983[48 FR 53640]). The counties and habitats of plants with recommended 

 Alabama status is indicated in Table 7.
