Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Designation of Critical Habitat for Limnanthes floccosa ssp. grandiflora (Large-Flowered Woolly Meadowfoam) and Lomatium cookii (Cook's Lomatium)

概要

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), designate critical habitat for two plants, Limnanthes floccosa ssp. grandiflora (large-flowered woolly meadowfoam) and Lomatium cookii (Cook's lomatium, Cook's desert parsley) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). We are designating 2,363 hectares (ha) (5,840 acres (ac)) in Jackson County, Oregon, as critical habitat for Limnanthes floccosa ssp. grandiflora and 2,545 ha (6,289 ac) in Jackson and Josephine Counties, Oregon, as critical habitat for Lomatium cookii. Excluding overlapping critical habitat units for the two species, a total of approximately 4,018 ha (9,930 ac) located in Jackson and Josephine Counties, Oregon, fall within the boundaries of the critical habitat designation.
