    Status of Plant Species of Special Concern in US Forest Service

    Status of Plant Species of Special Concern In US Forest Service Region 4 In Wyoming Report prepared for the US Forest Service By Walter Fertig Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming PO Box 3381 Laramie, WY 82071 20 January 2000 INTRODUCTION The US Forest Service is directed by the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and internal policy (through the Forest Service Manual) to manage for listed and candidate Threatened and Endangered plant species on lands under its jurisdiction. The Intermountain Region of the Forest Service (USFS Region 4) has developed a Sensitive species policy to address the management needs of rare plants that might qualify for listing under the ESA (Joslin 1994). The objective of this policy is to prevent Forest Service actions from contributing to the further endangerment of Sensitive species and their subsequent listing under the ESA. In addition, the Forest Service is required to manage for other rare species and biological diversity under provisions of the National Forest Management Act. The current Sensitive plant species list for Region 4 (covering Ashley, Bridger-Teton, Caribou, Targhee, and Wasatch-Cache National Forests and Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area in Wyoming) was last revised in 1994 (Joslin 1994). Field studies by botanists with the Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Herbarium, Wyoming Natural Diversity Database (WYNDD), and private consulting firms since 1994 have shown that several currently listed species may no longer warrant Sensitive designation, while some new species should be considered for listing. Region 4 is currently reviewing its Sensitive plant list and criteria for listing. This report has been prepared to provide baseline information on the statewide distribution and abundance of 127 plants listed as “species of special concern” by WYNDD (Table 1) (Fertig and Beauvais 1999).

Species List F.1 Lists The following list and three tables denote the bird, mammal, fish, and plant species known to occur in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (Arctic Refuge, Refuge). F.1.1 Birds of Arctic Refuge A total of 201 bird species have been recorded on Arctic Refuge. This list describes their status and abundance. Many birds migrate outside of the Refuge in the winter, so unless otherwise noted, the information is for spring, summer, or fall. Bird names and taxonomic classification follow American Ornithologists' Union (1998). F.1.1.1 Definitions of classifications used Regions of the Refuge . Coastal Plain – The area between the coast and the Brooks Range. This area is sometimes split into coastal areas (lagoons, barrier islands, and Beaufort Sea) and inland areas (uplands near the foothills of the Brooks Range). Brooks Range – The mountains, valleys, and foothills north and south of the Continental Divide. South Side – The foothills, taiga, and boreal forest south of the Brooks Range. Status . Permanent Resident – Present throughout the year and breeds in the area. Summer Resident – Only present from May to September. Migrant – Travels through on the way to wintering or breeding areas. Breeder – Documented as a breeding species. Visitor – Present as a non-breeding species. * – Not documented. Abundance . Abundant – Very numerous in suitable habitats. Common – Very likely to be seen or heard in suitable habitats. Fairly Common – Numerous but not always present in suitable habitats. Uncommon – Occurs regularly but not always observed because of lower abundance or secretive behaviors.
