 AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
 ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews; request for information.
 SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are initiating 5-year status reviews under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act), of the endangered black-lace cactus (
                        *Echinocereus reichenbachii*
                         var. 
                        *albertii*), the endangered Bone Cave harvestman (
                        *Texella reyesi*), the endangered Pima pineapple cactus (
                        *Coryphantha scheeri*
                         var. 
                        *robustispina*), the endangered Texas snowbells (
                        *Styrax texanus*), and the endangered Walker's manioc (
                        *Manihot walkerae*). 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 such information that has become available since our original listing of these five species or since the last 5-year review.
 DATES: To ensure consideration, we are requesting submission of new information no later than June 15, 2015. However, we will continue to accept new information about any listed species at any time.
 ADDRESSES: For how to submit information, see Request for Information and How Do I Ask Questions or Provide Information? in the 
                        **SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION**
                         section.
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information on a particular species, contact the appropriate person or office listed in the table in the 
                        **SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION**
                         section.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Why do we conduct a 5-year review? Under the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 
                    *et seq.*), 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 Act 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, refer to our factsheet at 
                    *http://www.fws.gov/​endangered/​what-we-do/​recovery-overview.html.*( print page 20242) What information do we consider in our review? A 5-year review considers all new information available at the time of the review. For all five of these species, this will be the second 5-year review developed for each species. 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 that 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?
