  • Recovery Strategy for Sand Verbena Moth (Copablepharon Fuscum)
    British Columbia Recovery Strategy Series Recovery Strategy for Sand-verbena Moth (Copablepharon fuscum) in British Columbia Prepared by the British Columbia Invertebrates Recovery Team March 2008 DRAFT About the British Columbia Recovery Strategy Series This series presents the recovery strategies that are prepared as advice to the Province of British Columbia on the general strategic approach required to recover species at risk. The Province prepares recovery strategies to meet its commitments to recover species at risk under the Accord for the Protection of Species at Risk in Canada, and the Canada – British Columbia Agreement on Species at Risk. What is recovery? Species at risk recovery is the process by which the decline of an endangered, threatened, or extirpated species is arrested or reversed, and threats are removed or reduced to improve the li kelihood of a species’ persistence in the wild. What is a recovery strategy? A recovery strategy represents the best available scientific knowledge on what is required to achieve recovery of a species or ecosystem. A recovery strategy outlines what is and what is not known about a species or ecosystem; it also identifies threats to the species or ecosystem, and what should be done to mitigate those threats. Recovery strategies set recovery goals and objectives, and recommend approaches to recover the species or ecosystem. Recovery strategies are usually prepared by a recovery team with members from agencies responsible for the management of the species or ecosystem, experts from other agencies, universities, conservation groups, aboriginal groups, and stakeholder groups as appropriate. What’s next? In most cases, one or more action plan(s) will be developed to define and guide implementation of the recovery strategy.

  • A Summary of Terrestrial and Freshwater Invertebrate Conservation in British Columbia
    A Summary of Terrestrial and Freshwater Invertebrate Conservation in British Columbia JENNIFER HERON Biodiversity Branch, Terrestrial Ecosystem Science Section, British Columbia Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection, P.O. Box 9338 Stn Prov Govt, Victoria, BC, V8W 9M1, Canada, and University of British Columbia, 2204 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, V6T 1Z1, Canada, email [email protected] Key Words: invertebrates, gastropods, butterflies, species at risk, conservation, status, Garry oak ecosystems, British Columbia Introduction Invertebrates dominate the world’s ecosystems, and there are immense challenges to addressing their conservation needs. British Columbia (B.C.) has approximately 50,000 invertebrate taxa (Cannings 1992), 40,000 of which are estimated to be insects (Harding 1997). Very little is known about the distribution, abundance, life history, and habitat requirements of most of these animals, and making assessments on a species-by-species basis to determine if a species is at risk is a formidable task. Even for species groups like butterflies, where the distribution information is well documented, host plant specificity and habitat are not completely known. Regardless of these challenges, interest in the field of invertebrate conservation is growing, and filling in the information gaps is rewarding. There is a strong need for expertise and specialization on a local, regional, and provincial scale for all invertebrate groups. Those wishing to carve a specialist niche in the realm of conservation biology should consider becoming involved in invertebrate conservation. The protection of invertebrates at risk has been initiated at both the federal and provincial level. The federal Species at Risk Act (SARA) provides immediate protection for individuals, residences, and critical habitats for those species which occur on federal lands and are listed as Endangered or Threatened by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC).

  • Species Status Assessment for the Sand Verbena Moth (Copablepharon Fuscum)
    Species Status Assessment for the Sand Verbena Moth (Copablepharon fuscum) Version 1.0 2019 U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document presents the species status assessment (SSA) for the sand verbena moth (Copablepharon fuscum), completed to characterize the species’ overall viability by using the three conservation biology principles of resiliency, redundancy and representation. We identify the species’ ecological requirements for survival and reproduction at the individual, population, and species levels, and describe risk factors influencing the species’ current and future condition. The sand verbena moth is a narrow endemic that primarily occupies nearshore areas around the Salish Sea in southern British Columbia, Canada, and northern Washington in the United States, with the exception being a single detection on the west coast of Vancouver Island, in British Columbia. Since the species was first discovered in 1994, it has been detected at 11 sites; six in Canada and five in the United States. Searches/surveys for sand verbena moth have been inconsistent in frequency, scope, and intensity, and have only provided information on species presence (e.g. positive and negative detections); the limited demographic information available for the species prevents the development of abundance estimates or population trends for the sand verbena moth. Species viability relies on interconnected healthy populations with habitat that provides for feeding, sheltering, and protection from predators, but we don’t have information to confirm dispersal between the disparate detection sites for the sand verbena moth. The sand verbena moth completes its entire life cycle on and around the yellow sand verbena plant (Abronia latifolia).

Within its range, this moth depends on dune coastal habitat containing relatively large stands of its host plant, the yellow sand verbena (Abronia latifolia). Yellow sand verbena only grows near sea level, in sandy coastal areas that lack dense plant cover. The Moth depends on the yellow sand verbena in all life stages except pupation. Adult moths feed on the nectar of the sand verbena’s trumpet-shaped flower; adults lay eggs in its flowers; and larvae feed on its leaves and flowers. Of its ten populations, four are in British Columbia and six are in Washington. The populations within Canada are likely isolated from each other, and they are isolated from the U.S. populations. The total occupied area of the Canadian populations is approximately 61 hectares (151 acres). The occupied area within the U.S.
