Mantua Swamp, Protected wetland in Mantua Township, Ohio, US.
The 285-acre natural area contains diverse wetland types including swamp forest, boreal bog, and cattail marshes across Portage County terrain.
The site received National Natural Landmark status in 1976 and gained recognition as a state nature preserve in 1990.
Local environmental organizations conduct research programs and monitor twenty-four different state-listed plant species within the preserve boundaries.
Access to Mantua Swamp requires obtaining a permit from the Division of Natural Areas and Preserves before entering the protected grounds.
Researchers documented a breeding population of brush-tipped emerald dragonfly in 2000, recording the first occurrence of this species in Ohio.
