Checklists of Exmoor's Wildlife

Since then there have been a number of additions published annually in Exmoor Naturalist magazine. The following lists show what we have recorded so far and it is hoped there will be future updates.

Algae	Amphibians	Beetles
Birds	Bryophytes	Diptera
Fish	Fleas	Fungi
Hymenoptera	Lepidoptera	Lichens
Mammals	Maritime	Other Creatures
Plants	Reptiles	Spiders
