These exotic populations may also be referred to as alien, introduced, invasive, non-native, or non-indigenous. "Species Status Codes, Exotics". Montana Natural Heritage Project.

- ^ Species of concern are native taxa that are at-risk due to declining population trends, threats to their habitats, restricted distribution, and other factors. Designation as a Montana species of concern is based on the Montana status rank, and is not a statutory or regulatory classification. Rather, these designations provide information that helps resource managers make proactive decisions regarding species conservation and data collection priorities.
