Monarch Species Assesment and Listing Priority Assignment U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE SPECIES ASSESSMENT AND LISTING PRIORITY ASSIGNMENT FORM SCIENTIFIC NAME: Danaus plexippus COMMON NAME: Monarch butterfly LEAD REGION: IR3 DATE INFORMATION CURRENT AS OF: 09/17/2020 STATUS/ACTION Species assessment - determined either we do not have sufficient information on threats or the information on the threats does not support a proposal to list the species and, therefore, it was not elevated to Candidate status Listed species petitioned for uplisting for which we have made a warranted-but-precluded finding for uplisting (this is part of the annual resubmitted petition finding) Candidate that received funding for a proposed listing determination; assessment not updated _X_ New candidate Continuing candidate Listing priority number change Former LPN: New LPN: Candidate removal: Former LPN: A – Taxon is more abundant or widespread than previously believed or not subject to the degree of threats sufficient to warrant issuance of a proposed listing or continuance of candidate status. U – Taxon not subject to the degree of threats sufficient to warrant issuance of a proposed listing or continuance of candidate status due, in part or totally, to conservation efforts that remove or reduce the threats to the species. F – Range is no longer a U.S. territory. I – Insufficient information exists on taxonomy, or biological vulnerability and threats, to support listing. 1 M – Taxon mistakenly included in past notice of review. N – Taxon does not meet the Act’s definition of “species.” X – Taxon believed to be extinct. Date when the species first became a Candidate (as currently defined): NA Petition Information: Non-petitioned _X_ Petitioned; Date petition received: August 26, 2014 90-day substantial finding FR publication date: December 31, 2014 12-month warranted but precluded finding FR publication date: NA FOR PETITIONED CANDIDATE SPECIES: a. Is listing warranted (if yes, see summary of threats below)? Yes b. To date, has publication of a proposal to list been precluded by other higher priority listing actions? NA c. Why is listing precluded? Higher priority listing actions, including court-approved settlements, court-ordered and statutory deadlines for petition findings and listing determinations, emergency listing determinations, and responses to litigation, preclude the proposed and final listing rules for this species. We continue to monitor populations and will change its status or implement an emergency listing if necessary. The “Progress on Revising the Lists” section of the current CNOR (http://endangered.fws.gov/) provides information on listing actions taken during the last 12 months. PREVIOUS FEDERAL ACTIONS On August 26, 2014, we received a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity, Center for Food Safety, Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, and Dr. Lincoln Brower, requesting that we list the monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus plexippus) as a threatened species under the Act. On December 31, 2014, we published a 90-day finding that the petition presented substantial scientific or commercial information, indicating that listing the monarch butterfly may be warranted (79 FR 78775).

LEAD REGION CONTACT: Barbara Hosler, Interior Region 3, (517) 351-6326, [email protected] LEAD FIELD OFFICE CONTACT: NA BIOLOGICAL INFORMATION The Monarch (Danaus plexippus) Species Status Assessment Report, Version 2.0 is a summary of the information assembled and reviewed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) and incorporates the best scientific and commercial information available for the species. Excerpts from the SSA Report are provided in the sections below. For more detailed information, please refer to the SSA report (Service 2020, entire). Species Description Adult monarch butterflies are large and conspicuous, with bright orange wings surrounded by a black border and covered with black veins. The black border has a double row of white spots, present on the upper side and lower side of forewings and hindwings (Bouseman and Sternburg 2001, p. 222). Adult monarchs are sexually dimorphic, with males having narrower wing venation and scent patches (CEC 2008, p.11; Figure 2). The bright coloring of a monarch serves as a warning to predators that eating them can be toxic (referred to as aposematism). 4 Figure 2. Male monarch on milkweed. Note the arrow pointing to one of the two black dots on the hind wings. These are not present on female monarchs. Photo by Tim Koerner, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Taxonomy The petition that the Service received in 2014 was for listing a subspecies of the monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus plexippus) (Center for Biological Diversity et al. 2014, p. 4). The petition also requested a determination of whether any new North American subspecies of Danaus plexippus should be listed. After careful examination of the literature and consultation with experts, there is no clearly agreed upon definition of potential subspecies of Danaus plexippus or where the geographic borders between these subspecies might exist. Given these findings, we examined the entire range of Danaus plexippus. For more information on taxonomy, see Appendix

  • Letters from a Fish to His Admiral (Pdf)
    LETTERS FROM A FISH TO HIS ADMIRAL BEING BRITANNIA NEWSLETTERS 1-20 17th November 1953 – 9th April 1954 from Acting Captain J S Dalglish, Royal Navy to Rear Admiral Connoly Abel Smith, Royal Navy (temporarily absent with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on board the S.S. GOTHIC for the Commonwealth tour of 1953/4) COMMISSIONING BRITANNIA The following notes and letters were written by Acting Captain J S Dalglish, the Officer in charge of Commissioning BRITANNIA, and getting her ready for Royal service, between November 1953 and April 1954. They were written to Rear Admiral Conolly Abel Smith who was on SS Gothic, in temporary use as a Royal Yacht, for The Queen’s Commonwealth Tour 53/54. Upon his return to the UK, Admiral Abel Smith would then become in charge of BRITANNIA, as the first Flag Officer Royal Yachts (FORY). Throughout his career Captain Dalglish was known as FISH. We have a copy of his autobiography – Life Story of a Fish. Prologue SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS ON “BRITANNIA” AT THE BEGINNING. Selection Officers were nominated by Flag Officer Royal Yachts after personal interviews, after which approval was formally given from the Palace. Royal Yachtsmen (who were ranked as ‘Riggers’ in V&A, but with us they became just ‘Yachtsmen’), were all volunteers in response to an AFO in 1953. About 1,000 names came up and we began, of course, with examination of Service Certificates from which any who were not VG Superior were eliminated (although I seem to remember some of our Stokers were VG Satisfactory because of numbers).

  • Llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll PUFF /MFN 9702
    llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll PUFF /MFN 9702 Malayan Nature Joumal200l, 55 (1 & 2): 133 ~ 146 The Significance of Gynoecium and Fruit and Seed Characters for the Classification of the Rubiaceae CHRISTIAN(PUFF1 Abstract: This paper attempts to give a survey of the highly diverse situation found in the gynoecium (especially ovary) of the Rubiaceae (multi-, pluri-, pauci- and uniovulate locules; reduction of ovules and septa in the course of development, etc.). The changes that can take place after fertilisation (i.e., during fruit and seed development) are discussed using selected examples. An overview of the many diverse types of fruits and seeds of the Rubiaceae is presented. In addition, the paper surveys the diaspores (dispersal units) found in the family and correlates them with the morphological-anatomical situation. Finally, selected discrepancies between "traditional" classification systems of the Rubiaceae and recent cladistic analyses are discussed. While DNA analyses and cladistic studies are undoubtedly needed and useful, it is apparent that detailed (comparative) morphological-anatomical studies of gynoecium, fruits and seeds can significantly contribute to the solution of"problem cases" and should not be neglected, Future cladistic :work should, therefore, more generously include such data. INTRODUCTION The Rubiaceae, with approximately 11 ,000 species and more than 630 genera (Mabberley 1987, Robbrecht 1988), is one of the five largest families of angiosperms. Although centred in the tropics and subtropics and essentially woody, the family also extends to temperate regions and exhibits a wide array of growth forms, with some tribes having herbaceous, and even annual members. Not surprisingly, floral, fruit and seed characters also show considerable diversity.

  • Phylogeny of the Tribe Cinchoneae (Rubiaceae), Its Position in Cinchonoideae, and Description of a New Genus, Ciliosemina
    54 (1) • February 2005: 17–28 Andersson & Antonelli • Phylogeny of Cinchoneae MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETICS Phylogeny of the tribe Cinchoneae (Rubiaceae), its position in Cinchonoideae, and description of a new genus, Ciliosemina Lennart Andersson* & Alexandre Antonelli Botanical Institute, Göteborg University, P. O. Box 461, SE-405 30 Göteborg, Sweden. alexandre.antonelli@ botany.gu.se (author for correspondence) Relationships of and within the Rubiaceae tribe Cinchoneae were estimated based on DNA sequence variation in five loci: the ITS region, the matK and rbcL genes, the rps16 intron, and the trnL-F region including the trnL intron and the trnL-F intergenic spacer. Within Cinchonoideae s.s., the tribe Naucleeae is the sister group of a clade that comprises all other taxa. Cinchoneae and Isertieae s.s., are strongly supported as sister groups. The tribe Cinchoneae is strongly supported as monophyletic in a restricted sense, including the genera Cinchona, Cinchonopsis, Joosia, Ladenbergia, Remijia and Stilpnophyllum. There is strong support that these genera are monophyletic as presently conceived, except that one species mostly referred to Remijia is of uncer- tain phylogenetic affinity. To accommodate this species and a morphologically closely similar one, a new genus, Ciliosemina A. Antonelli, is proposed and two new combinations are made. KEYWORDS: Cinchona, Cinchoneae, Cinchonopsis, Joosia, Ladenbergia, Remijia, Stilpnophyllum, Rubiaceae; ITS, matK, rbcL, rps16 intron, trnL-F. oideae.

The Center is supported by more than 775,000 members and activists throughout the country. The Center works to secure a future for all species, great or small, hovering on the brink of extinction. The Center for Food Safety (“CFS”) is a nonprofit public interest organization established in 1997 whose mission centers on protecting public health and the environment by curbing the adverse impacts of industrial agriculture and food production systems on public health, the environment, and animal welfare, and by instead promoting sustainable forms of agriculture. As particularly relevant here, CFS is the leading nonprofit working on the adverse impacts of genetically engineered crops and neonicotinoid pesticides. CFS and its over half-a-million members are concerned about the impacts of industrial agriculture on biodiversity generally, and on monarch butterflies specifically.

  • A New Species of Colletoecema (Rubiaceae) from Southern Cameroon with a Discussion of Relationships Among Basal Rubioideae
    BLUMEA 53: 533–547 Published on 31 December 2008 http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651908X607495 A NEW SPECIES OF COLLETOECEMA (RUBIACEAE) FROM SOUTHERN CAMEROON WITH A DISCUSSION OF RELATIONSHIPS AMONG BASAL RUBIOIDEAE B. SONKÉ1, S. DESSEIN2, H. TAEDOUMG1, I. GROENINCKX3 & E. ROBBRECHT2 SUMMARY Colletoecema magna, a new species from the Ngovayang Massif (southern Cameroon) is described and illustrated. A comparative morphological study illustrates the similar placentation and fruit anatomy of the novelty and Colletoecema dewevrei, the only other species of the genus. Colletoecema magna essentially differs from C. dewevrei by its sessile flowers and fruits, the corolla tube that is densely hairy above the insertion point of the stamens and the anthers that are included. Further characters that separate the novelty are its larger leaves, more condensed inflorescences, and larger fruits. Its position within Colletoecema is corroborated by atpB-rbcL and rbcL chloroplast sequences. The relationships among the basal lineages of the subfamily Rubioideae, to which Colletoecema belongs, are briefly addressed. Based on our present knowledge, a paleotropical or tropical African origin of the Rubioideae is hypothesized. Key words: Rubioideae, Rubiaceae, Colletoecema, chloroplast DNA, Ngovayang massif. INTRODUCTION Up to now, Colletoecema was known from a single species, i.e. C. dewevrei (De Wild.) E.M.A.Petit, a Guineo-Congolian endemic. The genus was established by Petit (1963) based on ‘Plectronia’ dewevrei (Rubiaceae, Vanguerieae), a species described by De Wildeman (1904). Petit (1963) demonstrated that this species does not belong to the Canthium complex and described a new genus, i.e. Colletoecema. He also showed that the original position in Vanguerieae could not be upheld.
