| Summary: | Draft plan for recovery and restoration of listed endangered species and their habitats in South Florida. | |
| Abstract/Description: | This draft plan identifies the recovery needs of the 68 threatened and endangered species in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's South Florida Ecosystem. In addition to these species, the plan also identifies the management needs of other species that depend upon the same ecological communities, or habitats, as the federally-listed threatened or endangered species. These species include plants or animals that are listed as threatenedor endangered by the State of Florida, and species that are endemic to south Florida. These species are included in Volume II in the treatments that address the ecological communities of south Florida. | |
