Exploration of Environmental DNA (eDNA) to Detect Kirtland’s Snake (Clonophis kirtlandii)

Environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys utilize DNA shed by organisms into their environment in order to detect their presence. This technique has proven effective in many systems for detecting rare or cryptic species that require high survey effort. One potential candidate for eDNA surveying is Kirtland’s...
