• The Fisheries Bureau defines and classifies Threatened and Endangered Species in the 1986-1990 Plan as follows:

Threatened Species: Am species which is likely to become an endangered specie, within the teNro.reehle future in all or a significant portion of its range within Idaho.

Indengered Species: Any species which is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range within Idaho.

In Contrast wfth the six bird and rzgmal spacfas listed above as Threatened and Endangered Wildlife under Idaho Code, the two fish species listed as threatened or endangered have no statutory protection under Idaho Code. Their classification as threatened or endangered is a policy statement for menagement, not legal, purposes.

DEFINITION: Sensitive species are those designated by the state director, usually in cooperation with the state agencies responsible for managing the species es sensitive. They are these species that are 1) under stst,_1 review by USF16/NNFS; or 2) whose numbers are declining so rapidly that federal listing may become necessary; or 3) with typically small and widely dispersed peculation's; or 4) those inhabiting ecological refugia or other specialized or unique habitats.

32 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

we are deeply grateful to the following agencies who provided financial support for the preparation and publication of this booklet: Idaho Department of Fish and Game, Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation, Regions 1 and 4 of the U.S. Forest Service, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

PLANTS:

We are indebted to many people who volunteered their time and knowledge. Foremost among them are members of the Rare and Endangered Plants Technical Committee of the Idaho Natural Areas Council whose pioneering efforts formed the basis for the list presented here. Thanks also to all participants of the Idaho Rare Plant Conferences, held annually since 1984, whose input has been instrumental in shaping our current knowledge of Idaho's rare flora. Special thanks go to the following individuals who made specific comments on earlier drafts of this booklet: Fred Johnson (University of Idaho), Dr. Duane Atwood (USFS), Dr. Roger Rosentreter (BLM), Dr. Angie Evenden (USFS), Dr. Robert Parenti (USFWS), Dr. Douglass Henderson (University of Idaho), Steve Brunsfeld (University of Idaho), Dr. Joe Elliott (Conservation Biology Research), Sherry Pitman (Smithsonian Institution), and Dr. 9ruce McCune (Oregon State University). A final thanks to Steve Caicco, formally Botanist/Ecologist with the Idaho Natural Heritage Program, for the considerable effort he put toward compiling the initial, computerized rare plant data base for Idaho.

ANIMALS:

Many individuals contributed to the animal lists contained in this booklet. Bill Ruediger and Mike Hillis of Region 1, U.S. Forest Service, and an interagency committee were primarily responsible for implementing their Sensitive Species program. Similarly, Mike Rath and an interagency committee have been responsible for initiating the animal Sensitive Species program in Region 4, U.S. Forest Service. The Department of Fish and Game's Species of Special Concern definition and list was revised in 1989. We'd specifically like to thank Jeff Marks, Dr. Eric Yensen, Dr. Richard Wallace, Dr. Don Johnson, Dr. Barry Keller, Dr. Charles Peterson, and Dr. Charles Trost for their input and patience with this process. For review of the animal portions of this booklet, we are indebted to Alan Thomas (BLM), Jay Gore (USFWS), Bill Ruediger (USES), Mike Rath (USFS), Bill Horton (IDFG), and Dr. waynP Melquist (IDFG).
