SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), 

announce the availability of the draft 

recovery plan for the endangered Ozark 

hellbender (Cryptobranchus 

alleganiensis bishopi) for public review 

and comment. The Ozark hellbender is 

a large, strictly aquatic salamander 

found only in southern Missouri and 

northern Arkansas. The draft recovery 

plan includes objective, measurable 

criteria and management actions as may 

be necessary for removal of the species 

from the Federal List of Endangered and 

Threatened Wildlife. We request review 

and comment on this draft recovery 

plan from local, State, and Federal 

agencies, and the public. 

Recovery Planning 

Section 4(f) of the Endangered Species 

Act of 1973, as amended (Act; 16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.), requires the development 

of recovery plans for listed species, 

unless such a plan would not promote 

the conservation of a particular species. 

Also pursuant to section 4(f) of the Act, 

a recovery plan must, to the maximum 

extent practicable, include (1) a 

description of site-specific management 

actions as may be necessary to achieve 

the plan’s goals for the conservation and 

survival of the species; (2) objective, 

measurable criteria that, when met, 

would support a determination under 

section 4(a)(1) that the species should be 

removed from the List of Endangered 

and Threatened Species; and (3) 

estimates of the time and costs required 

to carry out those measures needed to 

achieve the plan’s goal and to achieve 

intermediate steps toward that goal. 

Species Background 

The Ozark hellbender is endemic to 

the White River drainage in northern 

Arkansas and southern Missouri 

(Johnson 2000), historically occurring in 

portions of the Spring, White, Black, 

Eleven Point, and Current Rivers and 

some of their tributaries (Bryant Creek, 

the North Fork White River, and Jacks 

Fork) (LaClaire 1993). Currently, 

populations of Ozark hellbenders are 

known to occur in Bryant Creek, the 

North Fork White River, the Eleven 

Point River, and the Current River, with

1Because the Ozark hellbender is a long-lived 

species, population trends take a longer amount of 

time to be realized. Thus, a longer period of time 

is needed to monitor population trends. 

some individuals possibly still present 

in the main stem of the White River, 

Spring River, and Jacks Fork (Briggler 

2013, pers. comm.; Irwin 2013, pers. 

comm.). 

The primary reason for Ozark 

hellbender population declines remains 

unclear. However, several potential 

factors have been identified and include 

degraded water quality, habitat loss 

resulting from impoundments and 

sedimentation, disease, illegal and/or 

scientific collection, and potential 

increased predation from some native 

and non-native species of stocked fish 

(Service 2011). Population declines 

have necessitated the use of captive 

propagation efforts to ensure the longterm survival of the species until threats 

are better understood and abated. 

Under the Act, the Service added the 

Ozark hellbender to the Federal List of 

Endangered and Threatened Wildlife as 

an endangered species on October 6, 

2011 (76 FR 61956). This final rule took 

effect on November 7, 2011. 

Recovery Criteria 

The draft recovery criteria are 

summarized below. For the recovery 

strategy, management actions, and 

estimated time and costs associated 

with recovery, refer to the Draft 

Recovery Plan for the Ozark hellbender 

(see ADDRESSES for document 

availability). 

The ultimate recovery goal is to 

remove the Ozark hellbender from the 

Federal List of Endangered and 

Threatened Wildlife (‘‘delist’’) by 

ensuring the long-term viability of the 

species in the wild. In the recovery 

plan, we define the following criteria for 

reclassification (‘‘downlisting’’ from 

endangered to threatened) and delisting 

based on the best available information 

on the species. 

Downlisting Criteria 

Because each of the three extant 

Ozark hellbender populations is 

genetically unique, all three populations 

are necessary to maintain the 

evolutionary potential of the species. 

Given the small range of each 

population, the persistence of all three 

populations is also necessary to guard 

against extinction from catastrophic 

events such as extreme flooding, 

drought, and chemical spills. Therefore, 

to downlist the Ozark hellbender, the 

following criteria should be achieved for 

each of three Ozark hellbender 

populations (the North Fork White 

River, Eleven Point River, and Current 

River): 

1. There is a positive population trend 

for a 15 year period.1

2. There is evidence of successful 

recruitment to maintain a sustaining 

population, with recruitment defined as 

attainment of sexual maturity by young. 

3. Habitat quantity and quality are 

sufficient to support all life stages. 

4. Within each watershed the number 

and distribution of occupied habitat 

patches and abundance of individuals 

within these patches is such that (1) the 

population is resilient to stochastic and 

catastrophic events and (2) connectivity 

and gene flow is sufficient to maintain 

genetic diversity and provide for natural 

re-establishment if a patch is extirpated. 

5. Causes of population declines have 

been identified, and it is clear what 

actions are needed to address these 

threats. 

Delisting Criteria 

To delist the Ozark hellbender, the 

following criteria should be achieved for 

each of three Ozark hellbender 

populations (the North Fork White 

River, Eleven Point River, and Current 

River): 

1. Downlisting criteria have been met. 

2. Threats and causes of decline have 

been reduced or eliminated such that 

delisting criterion 1 will continue to be 

met into the foreseeable future.
