S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (Service) biological opinion (Opinion) in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), regarding the issuance of an amendment to the incidental take permit (ITP) for the Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) County of San Diego (County) Subarea Plan (Subarea Plan) for Otay Ranch Village 14 and Planning Areas 16 and 19 (Project) pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Act. The Service issued the Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit (PRT-840414) to the County for their Subarea Plan on March 17, 1998. The permit duration is for 50 years. The County is requesting the Amendment to change the footprint of the Project, as well as add incidental take coverage for the federally endangered Quino checkerspot butterfly (Euphydryas editha quino; QCB) and San Diego fairy shrimp (Branchinecta sandiegonensis; SDFS). The MSCP is a comprehensive, 50-year habitat conservation plan program that addresses urban development and the needs of 85 covered species and the preservation of natural vegetation communities within a 582,243-acre planning area in southwest San Diego County (City of San Diego 1998).

  • Helminthoglypta Walkeriana COMMON NAME: Morro Shoulderband Snail CLASS, FAMILY: Gastropoda, Helminthoglyptidae
    SCIENTIFIC NAME: Helminthoglypta walkeriana COMMON NAME: Morro shoulderband snail CLASS, FAMILY: Gastropoda, Helminthoglyptidae ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Hemphill, H. 1911. Descriptions of some varieties of shells, with short notes on the geographical range and means of distribution of land snails. Transactions of the San Diego Society of Natural History 1(3):102, pl. 2 (two views of shells). (Described as Helix walkeriana, with morroensis described as a variety.) TYPE MATERIAL: Roth and Sadeghian (2003) list the syntypes as follows: Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia #112424 (4 specimens), California Academy of Sciences #058838 (6), #065523 (2), #065524 (3), Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History #33958 (22), University of Colorado, Boulder #20178 (4), and United States National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Institution) #174679-174682 (8). RANKING/STATUS: Federally Endangered (1994), G1S1 (NatureServe – CNDDB), CR/A1ce, B1+2bc (IUCN). GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Moderately large helminthoglyptid snails with globose, helicoid shells and brown bodies. DIAGNOSTIC CHARACTERS: Only three helminthoglyptid species occur in coastal San Luis Obispo County; until recently H. morroensis was considered a subspecies of H. walkeriana (Walgren 2003). The third species, H. umbilicata, has distinctive malleated shell sculpture (Roth and Tupen 2004). Detailed morphometric analysis of shells (Roth and Tupen 2004) revealed that H. walkeriana and H. morroensis are separate species. Shells of H. walkeriana are more globose and tightly coiled, with more whorls and less papillation than those of H. morroensis. The skin color of morroensis is blackish in life, whereas in walkeriana it is medium brown, and the mantle pigmentation is more extensive in morroensis. Penial morphology also differs, with the penis of walkeriana being slender and hourglass-shaped, with simple, smooth pilasters.
