NEVADA RARE PLANTS SHARED WITH UTAH
(18 March 2004)
As of the date above, this list provides information for the 63 Utah plants also included on the Nevada At-risk Plant and Lichen Tracking List or the Nevada Plant and Animal Watch List. 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.

Information provided for each taxon in the columns below include the various agency status and rank designations, and sand and wetland habitat indicators. A new Occurrence Status (OCC) column has been added to the left side of the list to show any special status within Utah: ?=possible or predicted in Utah but not yet confirmed, and I=only introduced or re-introduced occurrence(s) present in Utah.

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 most 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.

Click on a column heading for an explanation of that column. You may need to scroll horizontally in your browser to see all columns. You may also jump to the at-risk taxa or the watch-list taxa.
