Seven additional species have been identified as potentially affected by the proposed covered activities and maybe considered for inclusion in the RHCP: Whooping crane (Grus americana), big red sage (Salvia penstemonoides), to busch fishhook cactus (Sclerocactus brevihamatus ssp tobuschii), bracted twistflower (Streptanthus bracteatus), golden orb (Quadrula aurea), Texas pimpleback (Quadrula petrina), and Texas fatmucket (Lampsilis bracteata). Incidental take authorization for these additional species may be necessary during the term of the ITP. Inclusion of these species will be determined during the RHCP planning and development process. The RHCP may include conservation measures to benefit these species, where practicable, and support research to help fill data gaps regarding the biology, habitat, distribution, and/or management of these species, even if incidental take coverage is not requested under the ITP. Candidate and Federally listed species not likely to be taken by the covered activities, and therefore not covered by the proposed ITP, may also be addressed in the draft RHCP to explain why the applicants believe these species will not be taken.
