Species Code: OSSA Species Name: Oregon slender salamander
Decay Class: associated with decayed Stand Age Or Structure: mature forest
Geographic Area: western Oregon Cascades Comments: occupied (n=127) vs. random (n=130) plots; a 1-m increase in total log length of logs 55-75 cm diam (class 3) cause odds of occupancy on a 5-m radius plot to increase an average of 1.4 times (95% confidence interval = 1.2-1.6) -- from logistic regression; also 10% increase in bark cover increases odds of occupancy 1.9 times; no actual data given
