DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Fish and Wildlife Service 

Draft Recovery Plan for Vernal Pool 

Ecosystems of California and Southern 

Oregon

AGENCY: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior.

ACTION: Notice of document availability 

for review and comment. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service (we) announces the availability 

of the Draft Recovery Plan for Vernal 

Pool Ecosystems of California and 

Southern Oregon for public review and 

comment. This draft recovery plan 

covers 33 species, of which 20 are 

federally listed as threatened or 

endangered. These species inhabit 

vernal pool ecosystems in California 

and southern Oregon. This draft 

recovery plan includes recovery criteria 

and measures for 20 federally listed 

species. Federally endangered plants 

include Eryngium constancei (Loch 

Lomond button-celery), Lasthenia 

conjugens (Contra Costa goldfields), 

Limnanthes floccosa ssp. californica

(Butte County meadowfoam), Navarretia 

leucocephala ssp. pauciflora (fewflowered navarretia), Navarretia 

leucocephala ssp. plieantha (manyflowered navarretia), Orcuttia pilosa

(hairy Orcutt grass), Orcuttia viscida

(Sacramento Orcutt grass), Parvisedum 

leiocarpum (Lake County stonecrop), 

Tuctoria greenei (Greene’s tuctoria), and 

Tuctoria mucronata (Solano grass). 

Federally threatened plants include 

Castilleja campestris ssp. succulenta

(fleshy owl’s clover), Chamaesyce 

hooveri (Hoover’s spurge), Neostapfia 

colusana (Colusa grass), Orcuttia 

inaequalis (San Joaquin Valley Orcutt 

grass), and Orcuttia tenuis (slender 

Orcutt grass). Federally endangered 

animals include the Conservancy fairy 

shrimp (Branchinecta conservatio), 

longhorn fairy shrimp (Branchinecta 

longiantenna), and vernal pool tadpole 

shrimp (Lepidurus packardi). Federally 

threatened animals include the vernal 

pool fairy shrimp (Branchinecta lynchi) 

and delta green ground beetle (Elaphrus 

viridis). The portions of the plan dealing 

with the delta green ground beetle and 

Solano grass are a revision of the 1985 

Delta Green Ground Beetle and Solano 

Grass Recovery Plan. 

The draft recovery plan addresses 

conservation of 10 plant species of 

concern, including Astragalus tener var. 

ferrisiae (Ferris’ milk vetch), Astragalus 

tener var. tener (alkali milk vetch), 

Atriplex persistens (persistent-fruited 

saltscale), Eryngium spinosepalum

(spiny-sepaled button-celery), Gratiola 

heterosepala (Boggs Lake hedgehyssop), Juncus leiospermus var. ahartii

(Ahart’s dwarf rush), Legenere limosa

(legenere), Myosurus minimus var. apus

(little mouse tail), Navarretia myersii

ssp. deminuta (pincushion navarretia), 

and Plagiobothrys hystriculus (bearded 

popcorn flower). The three animal 

species of concern addressed in the 

draft recovery plan include the midvalley fairy shrimp (Branchinecta 

mesovallensis), California fairy shrimp 

(Linderiella occidentalis), and western 

spadefoot toad (Spea hammondii).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Restoring endangered or threatened 

animals and plants to the point where 

they are again secure, self-sustaining 

members of their ecosystems is a 

primary goal of our endangered species 

program. To help guide the recovery 

effort, we are working to prepare 

recovery plans for most of the listed 

species native to the United States. 

Recovery plans describe actions 

considered necessary for the 

conservation of the species, establish 

criteria for downlisting or delisting 

listed species, and estimate time and 

cost for implementing the recovery 

measures needed. 

The Endangered Species Act of 1973, 

as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) 

(Act), requires the development of 

recovery plans for listed species unless 

such a plan would not promote the 

conservation of a particular species. 

Section 4(f) of the Act as amended in 

1988 requires that public notice and an 

opportunity for public review and 

comment be provided during recovery 

plan development. We will consider all 

information presented during the public 

comment period prior to approval of 

each new or revised recovery plan. 

Substantive technical comments will 

result in changes to the plan as 

appropriate. Substantive comments 

regarding recovery plan implementation 

may not necessarily result in changes to 

the recovery plan, but will be forwarded 

to appropriate Federal or other entities 

so that they can take these comments 

into account during the course of 

implementing recovery actions. 

Individual responses to comments will 

not be provided. 

The 33 species covered in this draft 

recovery plan occur primarily in vernal 

pool, swale, or ephemeral freshwater 

habitats within California and southern 

Oregon and are largely confined to a 

limited area by topographic constraints, 

soil types, and climatic conditions. 

Surrounding (or associated) upland 

habitat is critical to the proper 

ecological function of these vernal pool 

habitats. Most of the vernal pool plants 

and animals addressed in the draft 

recovery plan have life histories adapted 

to the short period for growth and 

reproduction within inundated or 

drying pools interspersed with long 

dormant periods when pools are dry, 

and extreme year-to-year variation in 

rainfall. Threats to the species include 

habitat loss, fragmentation, and
