Reviews of 36 Species in Arizona, New

Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews;
request for information.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, are conducting 5-year
status reviews under the Endangered
Species Act of 36 animal and plant
species. A 5-year status review is based
on the best scientific and commercial
data available at the time of the review;
therefore, we are requesting submission
of any such information that has become
available since the last review for the
species.
To ensure consideration, we are
requesting submission of new

information no later than August 26,
2019. However, we will continue to
accept new information about any listed
species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For how to submit
information, see Request for Information
and How Do I Ask Questions or Provide
Information? in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
information on a particular species,
contact the appropriate person or office
listed in the table in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section. Individuals who
are hearing impaired or speech impaired
may call the Federal Relay Service at
800–877–8339 for TTY assistance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Why do we conduct a 5-year review?
Under the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), we maintain Lists of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants (which we collectively refer
to as the List). Wildlife and plants on
the List can be found at https://
ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/pub/listed
Animals.jsp and https://ecos.fws.gov/
tess_public/pub/listedPlants.jsp,
respectively. Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the
ESA requires us to review each listed
species’ status at least once every 5
years. Our regulations at 50 CFR 424.21
require that we publish a notice in the
Federal Register announcing those
species under active review. For
additional information about 5-year
reviews, refer to our factsheet at https://
www.fws.gov/endangered/what-we-do/
recovery-overview.html.
What information do we consider in
our review?
A 5-year review considers all new
information available at the time of the
review. In conducting these reviews, we
consider the best scientific and
commercial data that have become
available since the listing determination
or most recent status review, such as:
(A) Species biology, including but not
limited to population trends,
distribution, abundance, demographics,
and genetics;
(B) Habitat conditions, including but
not limited to amount, distribution, and
suitability;
(C) Conservation measures that have
been implemented that benefit the
species;
(D) Threat status and trends in
relation to the five listing factors (as
defined in section 4(a)(1) of the ESA);
and
(E) Other new information, data, or
corrections, including but not limited to
taxonomic or nomenclatural changes,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Why do we conduct 5-year reviews?
Under the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (Act; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), we maintain lists of endangered
and threatened wildlife and plant
species (referred to as the List) in the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50
CFR 17.11 (for wildlife) and 17.12 (for
plants). Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the Act
requires us to review each listed
species’ status at least once every 5
years. For additional information about
5-year reviews, refer to our factsheet at
https://www.fws.gov/endangered/whatwe-do/recovery-overview.html.
What information do we consider in
our review?
A 5-year review considers all new
information available at the time of the
review. In conducting these reviews, we
Scientific name
Status
States where
the species is
known to occur
consider the best scientific and
commercial data that have become
available since the listing determination
or most recent status review, such as:
(A) Species biology, including but not

distribution, abundance, demographics,
and genetics;
(B) Habitat conditions, including but
not limited to amount, distribution, and
suitability;
(C) Conservation measures that have
been implemented to benefit the
species;
(D) Threat status and trends in
relation to the five listing factors (as
defined in section 4(a)(1) of the Act);
and
(E) Other new information, data, or
corrections, including but not limited to
taxonomic or nomenclatural changes,
identification of erroneous information
contained in the List, and improved
analytical methods.
Any new information will be
considered during the 5-year review and
will also be useful in evaluating the
ongoing recovery programs for the
species.

Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Initiation of 5-
Year Status Reviews of 36 Species in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Utah,
and Mexico
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews; request for information.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are conducting 5-year
status reviews under the Endangered Species Act of 36 animal and plant
species. A 5-year status review is based on the best scientific and
commercial data available at the time of the review; therefore, we are
requesting submission of any such information that has become available
since the last review for the species.
DATES: To ensure consideration, we are requesting submission of new
information no later than August 26, 2019. However, we will continue to
accept new information about any listed species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For how to submit information, see Request for Information
and How Do I Ask Questions or Provide Information? in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information on a particular
species, contact the appropriate person or office listed in the table
in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section. Individuals who are hearing
impaired or speech impaired may call the Federal Relay Service at 800-
877-8339 for TTY assistance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Why do we conduct a 5-year review?
Under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), we maintain Lists of Endangered and Threatened
Wildlife and Plants (which we collectively refer to as the List).
Wildlife and plants on the List can be found at https://ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/pub/listedAnimals.jsp and https://ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/pub/listedPlants.jsp, respectively. Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the ESA
requires us to review each listed species' status at least once every 5
years. Our regulations at 50 CFR 424.21 require that we publish a
notice in the Federal Register announcing those species under active
review. For additional information about 5-year reviews, refer to our
factsheet at https://www.fws.gov/endangered/what-we-do/recovery-overview.html.
What information do we consider in our review?
A 5-year review considers all new information available at the time
of the review. In conducting these reviews, we consider the best
scientific and commercial data that have become available since the
listing determination or most recent status review, such as:
(A) Species biology, including but not limited to population
trends, distribution, abundance, demographics, and genetics;
(B) Habitat conditions, including but not limited to amount,
distribution, and suitability;
(C) Conservation measures that have been implemented that benefit
the species;
(D) Threat status and trends in relation to the five listing
factors (as defined in section 4(a)(1) of the ESA); and
(E) Other new information, data, or corrections, including but not
limited to taxonomic or nomenclatural changes,
[[Page 36114]]
identification of erroneous information contained in the List, and
improved analytical methods.
Any new information will be considered during the 5-year review and
will also be useful in evaluating the ongoing recovery programs for the
species.
Which species are under review?
The species in the following table are under active 5-year status
review.
