The Colorado Rare Plant Guide now contains
updated species profiles for rare plants listed as Candidate, Threatened, or Endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. CNHP botanist
Susan Panjabi is accepting comment on these species profiles through July 31, 2015. The profiles contain new, beautiful artwork by the
Rocky Mountain Society of Botanical Artists, as well as photographs by local botanists.
Mancos milkvetch (
Astragalus humillimus) is an excellent example of an updated profile, with new photos from botanist Steve O'Kane, and artwork by Vanessa Martin (see drawing below). Mancos milkvetch is a federally listed Endangered plant known from a small area in southwestern Colorado and northwestern New Mexico. Please contact
Susan with edits, as well as any additional information, photographs or artwork related to these rare plant species.
