Nevada Natural Heritage Program
NEVADA RARE PLANTS AND LICHENS SHARED WITH UTAH
As of the date above, this list provides information for the 48 Utah plants and lichens included on the Nevada Sensitive Plant and Lichen list and the Nevada Plant and Animal Watch List, including the various agency status and ranks, geographic range by state(s) and Nevada counties, and sand and wetland habitat indicators. These data reflect only what was entered in our computer databases as of the above date; additional information for some species may await processing in paper files, or may have been entered subsequently. More detailed Nevada information for these taxa is available in our Detailed Rare Plant and Lichen list, and in the Nevada Rare Plant Atlas, which provides comprehensive information on habitat, life-history, description, threats, survey status, literature sources, and known locations, for many plant taxa. Further information may be available on-line for some taxa in other lists or reports, or as maps or images, and general information is available for nearly all taxa on the NatureServe Explorer web site.
