Candidate species are those species for which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service has sufficient information to propose for listing as threatened
or endangered under the Act. Species of concern (some of which are
former Category 1 and Category 2 candidates) are those species whose
conservation standing is of concern to the Service, but for which status
information is still needed. Protection provided to these species now
may preclude possible listing in the future.
