Reviews of Five Listed Animal and

Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews;
request for information.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, are initiating 5-year
status reviews under the Endangered
Species Act, for two plant and three
animal 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. We invite
comments from the public and Federal,
Tribal, State, and local governments.
DATES: To ensure consideration, please
send your written information by March
14, 2023. However, we will continue to
accept new information about any listed
species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For instructions on how to
submit information for each species, see
the table in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
request information on specific species,
contact the appropriate person in the
table in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
section or, for general information,
contact Laura Ragan, via email at laura_
ragan@fws.gov or by phone at 612–713–
5157. Individuals in the United States
who are deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing,
or have a speech disability may dial 711
(TTY, TDD, or TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are
initiating 5-year status reviews under
the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
for two plant and three animal 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.
Why do we conduct 5-year reviews?
Under the ESA, we maintain Lists of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants (which we collectively refer
to as the List) in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR 17.11 (for
animals) and 17.12 (for plants). 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, go to https://

What information do we consider in
our review?
A 5-year review considers the best
scientific and commercial data that have
become available since the current
listing determination or most recent
status review of each species, 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;
