WOMAN LAKE
Plant surveys revealed a rich, diverse plant community. A total of 41 native aquatic plant taxa were recorded, making Woman Lake among the richest lake plant communities in the state. Plant growth was sparse in the main lake but within Broadwater Bay, Lantern Bay and Bungey Bay, 70% of the sites were vegetated. Common submerged plants included muskgrass, narrow-leaf and broad-leaf pondweeds, wild celery, Canada waterweed, and coontail. Approximately 180 acres of wild rice, 17 acres of bullrush and 16 acres of mixed waterlily beds occurred within Lantern Bay

and Broadwater Bay. Unique aquatic plants were identified at 18 sampling stations. Plants included small bladderwort species (Utricularia intermedia, U. gibba, and U. minor), water arum (Calla palustris), and wiregrass sedges (Carex oligosperma and C. lasiocarpa). Five of these species were documented for the first time in Woman Lake. (1)Two fish species of greatest conservation need (pugnose shiner and longear sunfish) were documented in Woman Lake. A total of 30 fish species were found during the 2006 surveys, bringing the total documented fish community at Woman Lake to 39 species. Surveyors identified four species blacknose shiner, pugnose shiner, spotfin shiner, and central mudminnow not previously documented at Woman Lake. Both mink and green frogs were observed, with the vast majority found in the sheltered bays. Surveyors documented 62 species of birds, including 11 species of greatest conservation need. Red eyed vireos were the most abundant bird species overall, whereas the veery was the most commonly detected species of greatest conservation need.
