Example of state species abstract: Astragalus paysonii INTRODUCTION The Intermountain Region of the Forest Service (USFS Region 4) implemented a· · sensitive species policy to address the management needs of rare vascular plant species that might qualify for listing under the Endangered Species Act (Joslin 1994) .under a . 1982 planning rule. A total of 11 species were designated sensitive by USFS Region 4 . and one species designated by Bridger Teton National Forest (BTNF) as occmTing on BTNF. Field studies conducted by botanists with the Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Herbarium, Wyoming Natural Diversity Database (WYNNDD) and private investigators have subsequently· shown that some of the currently listed species may no longer wanant sensitive status, while some new species should be considered. - · A systematic review of Wyoming species of concern was prepared for the Intermountain Region of the Fo1:est Service (Fe1iig 2000), following the list of plant species recognized as Wyoming species of concern in Fertig and Beauvais (1999). That review was not incorporated as there were no sensitive list updates. Subsequentrevisions to the planning rule were put in place in 2005, charging Forests to designate species Species of Concern (SOC) and making provisions for Forests to also designate Species of Inte1:est (SOI). The Bridger-Teton National Forest resource management plan updating process began in 2006 under the new plam1ing rule. The definition for SOC is those species that could trend toward listing under the _Endangered Species Act, corresponding with species ranked G 1-G3 by N atureServe. The definition for SOI is those species that are rare within the state, ranked S l-S3. In order to consider which species are rare throughout their distribution, or rare in the state of Wyoming, the BTNF requested the services of WYNDD to provide compiled lists of all globally rare and state rare species documented on the BTNF. This provides an opportunity to convey the most current botanical infonriation and pertinent resources, and to evaluate alternate processes and their outcomes. This process also provides an opportunity to consider the collective species found on BTNF that are scarce and of potential conservation concern throughout their range or throughout Wyoming. METHODS Three processes were. pursued to assemble and compile lists of species documented from the Bridger-Teton National Forest (BTNF) that are rare throughout their range, or throughout Wyoming. The resulting lists are presented in this report for· use in the development of the BTNF Species of Concern (SOC) and Species ofii1terest (SOI) on the Forest. First, a pre-existing NatureServe list was reviewed. Ir represented all species that · are in the WYNDD database fi-0111: the three counties that encompass BTNF (Lincoln, Sublette and Teton counties). This includes species that are no longer tracked as species' of concern in Wyoming but are retained in the Yv7YNDD database as reference. The 2 NatureServe list was annotated to differentiate which species are on the Forest or outside of the Forest, and whether or not they are tracked as species of concern in Wyoming. Second, a WYNDD export was prepared. Unlike the NatureServe list, it represented only Wyoming species of concern or potential concern (Heidel 2007) and only those that are on the BTNF. Thus, the WYNDD expo1i list is a subset of the NatureServe export list. Third, a working compilation of the vascular plant flora of the BTNF was prepared from three floristic inventories on BTNF that documented the flora in the Gros Ventre Range.(Hartman and Nelson 1994), the Salt and Wyoming Ranges (Haiiman 1995), and the west slope of the Wind River Range (Fertig 1992). Results from tlwse studies were recorded on a master spreadsheet of the state flora (Fe1iig 2002) based on the most cmTent printed flora (following the taxonomic and distribution data in Dorn 2001); to produce an annotated checklist of the lrnown flora of BTNF. A total of 1386 species are lmown from the BTNF. The master list of species of BTNF were s01ied by Global rank (Grank) and by State rank (Srank) to produce draft lists of the Species of Concern (SOC) having high Grank priorities (Gl-G3G4), or other Species oflnterest (SOI) having high Srank priorities (S 1-S2). A total of 68 SOC $pecies and 270 SOI species were identified. Information was added for BTNF to weigh in screening the candidates, including primary elevation zone (basin, montane, or·alpine), vegetation (structural categories filled in for all montane species and for most basin species), .cross-reference to Fertig (2000), and cross-reference to the more recent Wyoming species of concern lrnown from BTNF (Heidel 2007). Note: Inforn1ation on the flora and the rare species of adjoining areas (Grand Teton National Park and Targhee National Forest) was provisionally considered for cross-referencing in early stages of project-planning. However, the merit of including species that might possibly be found on BTNF but have not been documented has less merit compared to fioristic inventories on the BTNF. The process did not focus on those species that are cunently designated sensitive by the U.S. Forest Service Region 4 or by BTNF (Table 1; next page). However, they appear throughout the lists of prospective species of concern and species of interest by all three methods. In addition to the twelve species listed on this table, it deserves mention that there are an additional eight species designated sensitive by USFS R4 that are in Wyomi11g but not known :from BTNF, including meadow pussytoes (Antennaria arcuata), sweet-flowered rock-jasmine (Androsace chamaejasme ssp. carinata), meadow milkvetch (Astragalus diversifolius), park milkvetch (Astragalus leptaleus), upwai·d lobed moonwo1i (Botrychium ascendens), stemless beardtongue (Penstemon acaulis), Green River greenthread (Thelesperma cespitosa), a11d Uinta greenthread (Thelesperma pubescens). 3 ,. \ Table 1.

  • Sensitive and Rare Plant Species Inventory in the Salt River and Wyoming Ranges, Bridger-Teton National Forest
    Sensitive and Rare Plant Species Inventory in the Salt River and Wyoming Ranges, Bridger-Teton National Forest Prepared for Bridger-Teton National Forest P.O. Box 1888 Jackson, WY 83001 by Bonnie Heidel Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming Dept 3381, 1000 E. University Avenue University of Wyoming Laramie, WY 21 February 2012 Cooperative Agreement No. 07-CS-11040300-019 ABSTRACT Three sensitive and two other Wyoming species of concern were inventoried in the Wyoming and Salt River Ranges at over 20 locations. The results provided a significant set of trend data for Payson’s milkvetch (Astragalus paysonii), expanded the known distribution of Robbin’s milkvetch (Astragalus robbinsii var. minor), and relocated and expanded the local distributions of three calciphilic species at select sites as a springboard for expanded surveys. Results to date are presented with the rest of species’ information for sensitive species program reference. This report is submitted as an interim report representing the format of a final report. Tentative priorities for 2012 work include new Payson’s milkvetch surveys in major recent wildfires, and expanded Rockcress draba (Draba globosa) surveys, both intended to fill key gaps in status information that contribute to maintenance of sensitive plant resources and information on the Forest. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS All 2011 field surveys of Payson’s milkvetch (Astragalus paysonii) were conducted by Klara Varga. These and the rest of 2011 surveys built on the 2010 work of Hollis Marriott and the earlier work of she and Walter Fertig as lead botanists of Wyoming Natural Diversity Database. This project was initially coordinated by Faith Ryan (Bridger-Teton National Forest), with the current coordination and consultation of Gary Hanvey and Tyler Johnson.

  • Astragalus Lentiginosus Var. Coachellae
    Evaluating the Biological Conservation Status of the Coachella Valley Milkvetch (Astragalus lentiginosus var. coachellae) Robert J. Meinke, Kelly Amsberry, Rebecca E. Currin, Stephen C. Meyers, and Brian Knaus Native Plant Conservation Program OREGON DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Oregon Department of Agriculture NATIVE PLANT CONSERVATION PROGRAM NATIVE PLANT CONSERVATION PROGRAM and Department of Botany & Plant Pathology Oregon State University, Corvallis October, 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Coachella Valley milkvetch (Astragalus lentiginosus var. coachellae) is a federally-listed endangered taxon, restricted to a highly active sand dune environment near the eastern base of the San Jacinto Mountains in the western Sonoran Desert. A recent assessment confirms that var. coachellae is endemic to the Coachella Valley, and that reported populations from the Desert Center area (disjunct ca. 75 km to the east) actually represent A. lentiginosus var. variabilis. Much of the range of A. lentiginosus var. coachellae overlaps the cities of Palm Springs, Cathedral City, and other nearby communities, where remaining populations are threatened by the effects of urbanization and habitat fragmentation. A Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP; in preparation) is expected to place several of the more significant remaining sites within administratively protected reserve areas located outside the urban core. However, little information has been available that describes the natural history and ecological status of Coachella Valley milkvetch populations, and specific management plans have yet to be developed. The current study (conducted in 2005 and 2006) corroborates earlier reports that var. coachellae exhibits a labile life history correlated with annual precipitation, in which short-lived perennials loosely dominate the less arid, northern end of the range and annuals are more prevalent in the drier south.

  • Floral Guilds of Bees in Sagebrush Steppe: Comparing Bee Usage Of
    ABSTRACT: Healthy plant communities of the American sagebrush steppe consist of mostly wind-polli- • nated shrubs and grasses interspersed with a diverse mix of mostly spring-blooming, herbaceous perennial wildflowers. Native, nonsocial bees are their common floral visitors, but their floral associations and abundances are poorly known. Extrapolating from the few available pollination studies, bees are the primary pollinators needed for seed production. Bees, therefore, will underpin the success of ambitious seeding efforts to restore native forbs to impoverished sagebrush steppe communities following vast Floral Guilds of wildfires. This study quantitatively characterized the floral guilds of 17 prevalent wildflower species of the Great Basin that are, or could be, available for restoration seed mixes. More than 3800 bees repre- senting >170 species were sampled from >35,000 plants. Species of Osmia, Andrena, Bombus, Eucera, Bees in Sagebrush Halictus, and Lasioglossum bees prevailed. The most thoroughly collected floral guilds, at Balsamorhiza sagittata and Astragalus filipes, comprised 76 and 85 native bee species, respectively. Pollen-specialists Steppe: Comparing dominated guilds at Lomatium dissectum, Penstemon speciosus, and several congenerics. In contrast, the two native wildflowers used most often in sagebrush steppe seeding mixes—Achillea millefolium and Linum lewisii—attracted the fewest bees, most of them unimportant in the other floral guilds.
