U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Natural Resource Program Center Fort Collins, Colorado The National Park Service, Natural Resource Program Center publishes a range of reports that ad- dress natural resource topics of interest and applicability to a broad audience in the National Park Ser- vice and others in natural resource management, including scientists, conservation and environmental constituencies, and the public.

The Natural Resource Technical Report Series is used to disseminate results of scientifi studies in the physical, biological, and social sciences for both the advancement of science and the achievement of the National Park Service mission. The series provides contributors with a forum for displaying com- prehensive data that are often deleted from journals because of page limitations.

All in the series receive the appropriate level of peer review to ensure that the information is scientifi cally credible, technically accurate, appropriately written for the intended audience, and de- signed and published in a professional manner. This report received informal peer review by subject- matter experts who were not directly involved in the collection, analysis, or reporting of the data.

Views, statements, fi ndings, conclusions, recommendations, and data in this report are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily refl ect views and policies of the National Park Service, U.S. Depart- ment of the Interior.

Abstract

In 2005–2006, the National Park Service’s Northern Colorado Plateau Network received funding to develop a revised checklist of the vascular plant fl ora of Curecanti National Recreation Area (NRA). This entailed a thorough review of existing literature, re-examination of specimens from the Cure- canti NRA herbarium and other state and national museum collections, and additional fi eld work to corroborate unverifi ed species reports and locate new species. Based on this study, 679 vascular plant taxa have been confi rmed or reliably reported as occuring in the unit (527 are known from validated herbarium specimens and 152 from literature reports). Another 85 species formerly considered part of the Curecanti NRA fl ora have now been shown to be falsely reported. The current fl ora of Curecanti NRA represents 21.6% of the known fl ora of Colorado and 35.8% of the fl ora of the Colorado Plateau ecoregion within Colorado. Although no plant taxa are listed as threatened or endangered, at least 15 were formerly candidates for federal listing or are currently considered species of concern by the state natural heritage program. Introduced plants make up 13.1% of the recreation area fl ora (89 species), of which 23 species are considered noxious weeds by the State of Colorado. Further surveys in Curecanti NRA are likely to fi nd additional new species (at least 159 taxa are known from similar habitats outside the recreation area boundary), especially among late-fl owering, weedy, or wetland taxa.

We would like to thank the following individuals for their assistance with this project. Dr. Angela Evenden, botanist and former leader of the Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) program in Moab, , was an active proponent of this project and helped secure funding for fi eld work and herbarium studies in 2006. Libby Nance (former NCPN database specialist) and Margaret Beer (for- mer NCPN database manager) assisted with development and quality control of the recreation area’s NPSpecies database. Libby Nance, Janet Coles, and Helen Thomas also provided data from recent vegetation mapping and wetland inventories at Curecanti National Recreation Area (NRA). Research- er Larry Stevens shared his collection data from fi eld work in 2005. Thanks to Curecanti NRA staff , especially Danguole Bockus and Paul Zaenger, for providing logistical help with the herbarium-review phase of the project and providing corrections to the draft . To any others whom we may have inadvertently forgotten, please accept our apologies (and thanks). Funding for this project was provided by the National Park Service.

Codes: TNC global rank assesses abundance and conservation priority on a scale of 1–5 (1 being extremely vulnerable and 5 being secure) for full spe- cies () and varieties or subspecies (T) across their entire range. A “?” indicates uncertainty in the rank, = taxonomic questions, and NR = not ranked. A comparable scoring system is used to measure state abundance (S) in Colorado under the column CNHP status. TNC = The Nature Conservancy. Under legal status, USFWS = U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. CO BLM = U.S. Bureau of Land Management, Colorado Offi ce. 3C = Category 3 candidates (species dropped from consideration for listing). Under CNHP status, SOC denotes plants on the state “Species of Concern” list and Watch indicates species on the watch list that may ultimately warrant listing as species of concern (CNHP 2007).
