Nevada records for the brush mouse are anchored by Carson Valley and Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. They show where people have reported it, not how many animals live there.
These sites tie the Nevada record pattern to the state’s long mountain spine. Records from separate ranges matter because Nevada’s high country is broken into isolated peaks. The strongest reporting falls in summer, when Nevada’s high country is easiest to reach but low deserts are hottest. That may shape where observers submit records.
The file combines 2 research-grade iNaturalist records and 80 GBIF records. Those 82 records measure documented encounters, not Nevada’s population size. It’s native to Nevada. Nevada doesn’t specifically list it under the state’s conservation framework, and the IUCN lists it as Least Concern.
