Bouchardina is a genus of North American crayfish, containing a single species, Bouchardina robisoni (Bayou Bodcau Crayfish) which is named after one of the scientist who found it Henry W. Robison.[2] It can be found in the bayou basins of southwestern Arkansas, United States. It is not considered to be significantly threatened as its habitat has low human disturbance; it is listed as Data Deficient on the IUCN Red List, S1 (critically imperiled) by The Nature Conservancy[3] and by NatureServe as G2 (Imperiled) and by the American Fisheries Society as Vulnerable.[1]
In 2010, research by scientists suggested changing the IUCN status to threatened as it was only known from four counties (Lafayette, Hempstead, Nevada and Columbia County, Arkansas)[4] and only a few specimens had been collected since 1977.[3]
