Obligate Wetland: occur almost always (estimated probability 99%) under natural conditions in wetlands. Facultative Wetland: usually occur in wetlands (estimated probability 67% - 99%), but occasionally found in non-wetlands. (FACW) Facultative: equally likely occur in wetlands or non-wetlands (estimated probability 34% - 66%). (FAC) Facultative Upland: usually occur in non-wetlands (estimated probability 67% - 99%), but occasionally found in wetland (estimated probability 1% - 33%). Any status above with a (+) or (-) sign after the abbreviation: the species is more frequently (+) or less ofter(-) found in wetlands. (FACW+, FACW-, etc.)
