No additional individuals were detected within 100m of this newly discovered individual, which was established in anecdotally marginal habitat. Additional surveys in the area needed to investigate the abundance and extent of this species in this recently detected occupied area. FY24: SWCA identified 9 juvenile Escobaria plants and 1 multi-stemmed Lee's individual/cluster during surveys within proposed BLM Fuels treatment areas (Area 5 and Area 6). The nearest individual in Area 5 is approximately 7.6km NW of the nearest mapped individual in the Serpentine Bends population, and the individual in Area 6 is ~7km SW of the new individual discovered in 2022. On April 29 and 30, 2024, BLM and FWS biologists revisited the nine juvenile Escobaria plants in Area 5. Five of these were determined to be the species previously referred to as Escobaria vivipara var. neomexicana (hereafter, “ESCVIV”), three of these were determined to be Escobara sneedii var. leei (hereafter, ESCSNELEE), and the remaining plant was determined to likely be ESCSNELEE. Many mature “ESCVIV” plants were observed throughout Area 5, but no mature ESCSNELEE individuals were observed in the area. On June 11, 2024, BLM and NM EMNRD biologists visited the individual in Area 6 and confirmed it as a Lee's individual. | |||||||||||
