This report was [...] overseen and edited by Ronald Brooks and Jim Bogart, consecutive Cochairs of the COSEWIC Amphibian and Reptile Species Specialist Subcommittee”--Production note, p. [ii].

520 |a"The continuing decline of this species in Ontario and Québec is attributed to very low recruitment that has resulted from loss of nesting habitat. Suitable nesting and basking sites have been lost and/or degraded by development, altered water regimes (e.g., dams, floods, erosion of river banks), invasive plants, recreational use, and illegal harvest of individuals. Without nest protection, few eggs survive predation by an increased abundance of mammals. Designated Threatened in April 1991. Status re-examined and confirmed in May 2002. Status re-examined and designated Endangered in April 2016"--Assessment summary, p. iii.
