This section of the Jacob Fork is approximately 5 m in width, 0.25–0.5 m in depth, with a heterogeneous stream bottom primarily composed of gravel, cobble, and sand; secondarily composed of boulder, bedrock, and woody debris/ organic material. Holotype and allotype date of collection was 23 April 1985, morphotype date of collection was 1 July 1985.
Disposition of types. The holotype, allotype, morphotype, and 6 paratypes are deposited in the NCSM Nonmolluscan Invertebrate Collection (catalog numbers NCSM 90113, 90115, 90114; and 90098–90099, 90101– 90103, 90112 respectively). Two paratypes, including 1 MI and 1 F, are deposited in the USNM Invertebrate Zoology Collection (USNM 1531724, 1531725).
Range and specimens examined. Cambarus franklini has been found only in the Henry and Jacob Forks in Burke and Catawba Counties, North Carolina, USA. Despite intensive sampling efforts, no additional populations of the species have been detected elsewhere in, or beyond, the Catawba River Basin (Fig. 1).

Conservation status. Cambarus franklini, sp. nov., is often locally abundant but narrowly distributed in only two streams in western North Carolina with an estimated current extent of <100 km 2 containing two known populations. The estimated population size for C. franklini is currently unknown. Threats to the species have not been fully assessed but likely include habitat degradation and diminished water quality from land use practices (primarily logging and agriculture) in some areas of the surrounding watershed. A species of non-native crayfish belonging to the genus Faxonius Crandall and Degrave, 2017, has been reported from the lower Henry Fork immediately downstream of the recently-removed (c. 2016) Shuford Dam (NCWRC unpublished data). Based primarily on the species’ known narrow distribution, the species should be considered Threatened (T) following Taylor et al. (2007), Vulnerable (VU) using IUCN criteria (B2 a,b i-iv; 3.1), G2 (Imperiled) following NatureServe criteria.
Variation. Approximately 40% of the 64 individuals examined possess inconspicuous tufts of setae at the base of the opposable propodus. A small proportion of specimens examined (8%) possess 1–4 well-developed hepatic spines. Juveniles and sub-adults lack the robust chelae and sculptured denticles typical of adults. Juvenile coloration is typically olivaceous, however the characteristic bright red along the distal margins of the rami is present. Members of this species exhibit sexual dimorphism in reproductive structures. No geographic variation has been observed in this species.
Life History. Collections of C. franklini have occurred in January, April, May, July, August, September, October, and November. First form males have been observed in April, May, October, and November; second form males have been observed in all months sampled. Females in glare have been observed in November and January. Ovigerous females (n=2) have been observed in April and May. Young-of-year have not been observed. The species prefers 2 nd to 3 rd order streams and has been collected almost exclusively from beneath large cobbles (approx. 15 cm length) to small boulders (approx. 100 cm in length) in shallow riffles (0.1 m to 0.5 m depth) with moderate flow.
Crayfish associates. Several native stream-dwelling associate crayfish species occur with C. franklini, including Cambarus asperimanus Faxon, 1914, C. johni, Cambarus species C and C. cf. howardi. Cambarus cf. dubius, a primary burrower, was observed in burrows along stream banks. Faxonius virilis, an invasive crayfish species, has been collected alongside C. franklini at one site.
Relationships and comparisons. Cambarus franklini shares morphological similarities with several described species as well as unnamed members of the genus Cambarus in the Catawba River basin. Cambarus species C represents at minimum one undescribed species found throughout the Catawba River basin and can be differentiated from C. franklini by having two well-defined rows of tubercles on the mesial margin of the palm, a more strongly cephalo-dorsally converged and shorter acumen, fewer (4–5) punctations through the narrowest section of the areola (5–7), reduced tuberculation on the denticles of the chelae, absence of hepatic spines, and generally mottled or consistently olivaceous coloration in life. Cambarus species C been collected at numerous sites with C. franklini, albeit in low numbers, but is typically less common in the middle reaches and mainstem Henry and Jacob Fork watersheds and more abundant in 1 st to 2 nd order tributaries, where C. franklini is typically absent. Cambarus johni is generally uncommon throughout the Henry and Jacob Fork watersheds and can be differentiated from C. franklini by possessing two well-defined rows of tubercles on the mesial margin of the palm, a more strongly cephalo-dorsally converged acumen, absence of hepatic spines, a wide and weakly-curved zygoma extending to at least the midline of the renal aperture, and conspicuous lateral stripes on either side of the abdomen in life. Additionally, Cambarus johni is typically found in woody debris and detritus along stream banks, instead of the riffles favored by C. franklini. Cambarus cf. howardi is another putatively undescribed species found throughout the lower Catawba River basin and can be differentiated from C. franklini by the absence of cervical and hepatic spines, presence of more strongly-inflated margins on the rostrum, and being generally smaller in size. It should be noted that while C. cf. howardi is considered sympatric with C. franklini, the species have been collected together at only two sites in the lower Henry Fork and Jacob Fork mainstems. Additionally, Cambarus franklini shares superficial similarities with C. aldermanorum and C. spicatus, both of which are often characterized by the presence of numerous hepatic spines. However, C. aldermanorum is easily characterized by the presence of a lanceolate rostrum with a conspicuously elongated acumen, a much narrower areola, and is not sympatric with C. franklini; C. spicatus is distinguished by the presence of a short acumen delineated at its base by marginal spines or tubercles and is uncommonly found in the adjacent Broad River basin.
Etymology. The species epithet “ franklini ” is used in honor of Franklin D. Greybeard, a friend of author M. Perkins. The proposed common name, South Mountains crayfish, refers to the South Mountains region of western North Carolina, which harbors the entire known range of this species.
Common name. South Mountains crayfish.
