ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews;
request for information.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, are initiating 5-year
status reviews of 58 species in
California, Nevada, and the Klamath
Basin of Oregon under the Endangered
Species Act. A 5-year review is based on
the best scientific and commercial data
available at the time of the review;
therefore, we are requesting submission
of any new information on these species
that has become available since the last
review.
Common name
To ensure consideration in our
reviews, we are requesting submission
of new information no later than
September 24, 2019. However, we will
continue to accept new information
about any species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For how and where to send
information, see Request for New
Information.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
whom to contact for species-specific
information, see Request for New
Information. Individuals who are
hearing impaired or speech impaired
may call the Federal Relay Service at

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
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 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.
Which species are under review?
This notice announces our active
review of the species listed in the table

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are initiating 5-year
status reviews of 58 species in California, Nevada, and the Klamath
Basin of Oregon under the Endangered Species Act. A 5-year review is
based on the best scientific and commercial data available at the time
of the review; therefore, we are requesting submission of any new
information on these species that has become available since the last
review.
DATES: To ensure consideration in our reviews, we are requesting
submission of new information no later than September 24, 2019.
However, we will continue to accept new information about any species
at any time.
ADDRESSES: For how and where to send information, see Request for New
Information.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For whom to contact for species-
specific information, see Request for New Information. Individuals who
are hearing impaired or speech impaired may call the Federal Relay
Service at 800-877-8337 for TTY assistance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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/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 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.
