No Photo Available Plants Schiedea attenuata SPECIES STATUS: Federally Listed as a Candidate Species Genetic Safety Net Species Hawai‘i Natural Heritage Ranking ‐ Critically Imperiled (G1) Endemism – Kaua‘i SPECIES INFORMATION: An erect, sparingly branched shrub up to 75 cm tall. Leaves opposite, somewhat succulent. Cymes terminal, open. DISTRIBUTION: Known from a single site in Kalalau valley, island of Kaua‘i. ABUNDANCE: About 20 individuals. LOCATION AND CONDITION OF KEY HABITAT: Diverse mesic forest pockets and vertical cliffs. THREATS: Habitat degradation by feral pigs; Competition from alien plant species; Stochastic extinction; Reduced reproductive vigor due to the small number of remaining individuals. CONSERVATION ACTIONS: The goals of conservation actions are not only to protect current populations, but also to establish new populations to reduce the risk of extinction. In addition to common statewide and island conservation actions, specific actions include: Survey historical range for surviving populations; Establish secure ex‐situ stocks with complete representation of remaining individuals; Augment wild population and establish new populations in safe harbors. MONITORING: Continue surveys of population and distribution in known and likely habitats; Monitor plants for insect damage and plant diseases. RESEARCH PRIORITIES: Develop proper horticultural protocols and pest management; Survey ex‐situ holdings and conduct molecular fingerprinting; Conduct pollination biology and seed dispersal studies; Map genetic diversity in the surviving populations to guide future re‐ introduction and augmentation efforts.

U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service News Release Pacific Islands External Affairs Office 300 Ala Moana Blvd., Room 3-511 Box 50187, Honolulu, HI 96850 Phone: 808 792-9530 Fax: 808 792-9583 For Release: March 10, 2010 PIEA-10-04 Contact: Ken Foote, 808 792 9535 or 282 9442 RO-10-34 48 Kaua‘i Species Protected Under Endangered Species Act 45 Plants, 2 Birds, 1 Insect Listed in Ecosystem-based Approach WASHINGTON, D.C. – Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar today announced a major step forward in conserving imperiled animals and ecosystems on the Hawaiian island of Kaua‘i, adding 48 species unique to the island to the federal list of threatened and endangered species. Salazar also announced that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which is responsible for administering the Endangered Species Act, is designating critical habitat on the island for 47 of these species. “Our action today reflects President Obama’s determination to base conservation decisions on the best available science and to move quickly to protect our nation’s wildlife and ecosystems when, like the fragile ecosystem of Kaua‘i, they are at risk,” said Salazar. The designation of critical habitat for the 47 species represents a significant step forward from the Service’s past efforts to designate critical habitat for threatened and endangered species in Hawai‘i. Previous critical habitat designations created an overlapping patchwork of habitat that did not maximize conservation efforts for these species and Hawai‘i’s natural communities. “The ecosystem-based approach that our scientists used to make this decision represents an efficient and innovative model for conserving imperiled species and their habitats,” said Salazar.

IUCN Red List version 2018-2: Table 9 Last Updated: 14 November 2018 Table 9: Possibly Extinct and Possibly Extinct in the Wild Species The number of recent extinctions documented by the Extinct (EX) and Extinct in the Wild (EW) categories on The IUCN Red List is likely to be a significant underestimate, even for well-known taxa such as birds. The tags 'Possibly Extinct' and 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' have therefore been developed to identify those Critically Endangered species that are, on the balance of evidence, likely to be extinct (or extinct in the wild). These species cannot be listed as EX or EW until their extinction can be confirmed (i.e., until adequate surveys have been carried out and have failed to record the species and local or unconfirmed reports have been investigated and discounted). All 'Possibly Extinct' and 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' species on the current IUCN Red List are listed in the table below, along the year each assessment was carried out and, where available, the date each species was last recorded in the wild. Where the last record is an unconfirmed report, last recorded date is noted as "possibly". Year of Assessment - year the species was first assessed as 'Possibly Extinct' or 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild'; some species may have been reassessed since then but have retained their 'Possibly Extinct' or 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' status.
