thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .

justification : this species has a very restricted range and little is known about its population and life history characteristics . however , there are no major threats known . it is therefore listed as least concern .

this species was taken only in fatu hiva and nuku hiva within the marquesas islands , and henderson island and ducie atoll in the pitcairn group . although regions adjoining these islands have not been thoroughly sampled , it has not been encountered elsewhere in the tuamotu archipelago even though the area has been explored ( randall pers . comm . in gomon 2006 ) .

this is a large species , to about 315 mm sl . it inhabits coral reefs in depths of 13 - 74 m .

there are no known major threats to this species . it is possibly caught as bycatch .

arkansas river valley magazine mountain’s rocky outcrops are home to leadplant and the locally endemic maple - leaved oak . small - headed pipewort and bottle gentian occur in areas of natural seepage .

u . s . fish and wildlife service ( usfws ) . 1994 . recovery plan for magazine mountain shagreen . u . s . fish and wildlife service , jackson , mississippi . 26 pp .

the shagreen ' s known range is included within the ozark national forest and is classified as a special interest area . magazine mountain was recently proposed as a candidate for designation as a research natural area .

u . s . fish and wildlife service . 1989 . " determination of the magazine mountain shagreen , mesodon magazinensis , as an endangered species . " federal register 54 ( 72 ) : 15286 - 15287 .

u . s . army training exercises planned for the vicinity of magazine mountain will be permitted by the fws if troop , vehicle , and artillery movements do not disturb the north slope of the mountain . under provisions of the endangered species act , the army is required to consult with the fws before any exercises are undertaken . such a consultation might allow exercises to be held , so long as conditions to protect the snail ' s habitat are met .

the magazine mountain shagreen was listed as threatened on april 17 , 1989 . [ 2 ] thanks to efforts from the u . s . forest service , us fish and wildlife service , and the arkansas department of parks and tourism , the snail was removed from the endangered list in may of 2013 . [ 3 ] the shagreen is the first invertebrate ever removed from the federal endangered species list . [ 4 ]

because of this snail ' s extremely limited range , it is vulnerable to any land use change or other activity that might disrupt the habitat ' s fragile ecological balance . in 1989 the arkansas department of parks and tourism applied for a special use permit from the forest service to develop a state park on magazine mountain . the u . s . fish and wildlife service ( fws ) has expressed the opinion that construction of access roads , buildings , pipelines , and trails would adversely affect the snail if these activities disrupted rock slide rubble on the north slope . the fws , the forest service , and the state are currently negotiating to determine the feasibility of the proposed state park .

comments : there is thought to be only one extant population ; on the north slope of magazine mountain , logan co . , arkansas ( usfws , 1989 ; 2004 ) . a single dead specimen was found on the south slope in 1903 ( pilsbry and ferriss , 1906 ) but a population has never been discovered there ( usfws , 1994 ) .

comments : a single population inhabits a rock slide ( in rock debris ) on the north side only of a mountain on an approximately 60 % slope . the snail prefers a cool moist climate and will move deeper into rock crevasses in warmer dry weather ( usfws , 1989 ) . caldwell ( 1986 ) hypothesized that drier and warmer conditions on the south slope made conditions inhospitable for the species .

this mountain shagreen is active above the surface on cool , damp or wet days and retreats into the rock crevices as the weather warms . during july and august it never surfaces .

ouachita mountains many endemic plants live in the ouachitas , including a twistflower that is found only in arkansas and oklahoma . rich mountain has the state’s only example of ofer hollow reed grass .

several rare fish species are found only in arkansas , including the ouachita madtom , the caddo madtom , the yellowcheek darter , the paleback darter , and the strawberry river darter . the ozark cavefish and the leopard darter are found only in a few caves in arkansas , missouri , and oklahoma . arkansas also supports several salamanders endemic to the ozark and ouachita mountains . two that occur only in arkansas are the caddo mountain salamander and the fourche mountain salamander .

this snail has been collected from rock slide rubble at the base of a north - facing rocky escarpment . it prefers cool , moist conditions and burrows far back into crevices in the cliffs , during the hottest part of summer . habitat elevation ranges from 2 , 000 - 2 , 600 ft ( 600 - 790 m ) .

1 . endemics are known to occur only in a relatively small area . several plant and animal species occur only in arkansas . the caddo mountain salamander ( plethodon caddoensis ) is found only in certain areas of the state’s ouachita mountains .

several reptiles listed as rare in the state are on the edge of the ranges , such as the cornsnake and the louisiana milk snake . other snakes represent disjunct populations , such as the dusty hognose on rich mountain . the conversion of prairies to agriculture has reduced the ornate box turtle population drastically and confined it to a few prairie remnants in the state .

in arkansas , twenty animals are endangered , eight are threatened , and four are candidates . the endangered animals are two types of crayfish , one type of beetle , eight mussels , one fish , four birds , three bats , and the florida panther . the threatened animals are a snail , a mussel , three fish , a reptile , and two birds . a look at the numbers highlights the fact that the list is based on current knowledge and that scientists do not know everything about all species that live here . for instance , eight mussels are listed . that does not mean arkansas is a repository for rare mussels . it simply means someone has collected a lot of data on the mussels in the state . on the other hand , only one insect is listed . ninety - five percent of the world’s animals are insects . that only one is listed means more inventory and study need to be done . in these cases , not enough data exist for some species . in other cases , the data may be old and not recently verified . the florida panther ( puma concolor coryi ) was one of the first species in arkansas added to the endangered species list , in 1967 . an exhaustive statewide search has not been conducted for the panther recently , and the listing carries a footnote that indicates it may be a historic occurrence in arkansas . the bachman’s warbler and two mussels also carry this footnote .

urltoken gives you the ability to cite reference entries and articles according to common styles from the modern language association ( mla ) , the chicago manual of style , and the american psychological association ( apa ) .

within the “cite this article” tool , pick a style to see how all available information looks when formatted according to that style . then , copy and paste the text into your bibliography or works cited list .

because each style has its own formatting nuances that evolve over time and not all information is available for every reference entry or article , urltoken cannot guarantee each citation it generates . therefore , it’s best to use urltoken citations as a starting point before checking the style against your school or publication’s requirements and the most - recent information available at these sites :

most online reference entries and articles do not have page numbers . therefore , that information is unavailable for most urltoken content . however , the date of retrieval is often important . refer to each style’s convention regarding the best way to format page numbers and retrieval dates .

in addition to the mla , chicago , and apa styles , your school , university , publication , or institution may have its own requirements for citations . therefore , be sure to refer to those guidelines when editing your bibliography or works cited list .

non - migrant : no . all populations of this species make significant seasonal migrations .

locally migrant : no . no populations of this species make local extended movements ( generally less than 200 km ) at particular times of the year ( e . g . , to breeding or wintering grounds , to hibernation sites ) .

locally migrant : no . no populations of this species make annual migrations of over 200 km .

note : for many non - migratory species , occurrences are roughly equivalent to populations .

comments : the restricted range makes it vulnerable to any land use change or activity that would have an adverse effect on the talus slopes where it is found . toxic chemical application , runoff , or drift ( i . e . , herbicides , pesticides , fire - retardant slurries ) may have a detrimental impact on the species ( usfws , 1994 ) .

comments : potential threats include the proposed development of a nearby state park and use by the u . s . army for training exercises ( usfws , 1989 ) . currently , the u . s . army is no longer considering this option ( usfws , 1994 ) . recreational activities ( hiking , camping ) might potentially pose a threat to the species but this has not been confirmed ( usfws , 1994 ) . toxic chemical application , runoff , or drift ( i . e . , herbicides , pesticides , fire - retardant slurries ) may have a detrimental impact on the species ( usfws , 1994 ) .

comments : entire range is within the ozark national forest and is classified as a special interest area ( usfws , 1989 ; 1994 ) .

this species is endemic to arkansas in the united states . its natural habitat is rocky areas .

due to latency between updates made in state , provincial or other natureserve network databases and when they appear on natureserve explorer , for state or provincial information you may wish to contact the data steward in your jurisdiction to obtain the most current data . please refer to

occurrences are based on some evidence of historical or current presence of single or multiple specimens , including live specimens or recently dead shells ( i . e . , soft tissue still attached without signs of external weathering or staining ) , at a given location with potentially recurring existence . weathered shells constitute a historic occurrence . evidence is derived from reliable published observation or collection data ; unpublished , though documented ( i . e . government or agency reports , web sites , etc . ) observation or collection data ; or museum specimen information .

barriers include barriers to dispersal such as the presence of permanent water bodies greater than 30 m in width , permanently frozen areas ( e . g . mountaintop glaciers ) which generally lack land snails ( frest and johannes , 1995 ) , or dry , xeric areas with less than six inches precipitation annually , as moisture is required for respiration and often hatching of eggs . for the various slugs and slug - like species ( families arionidae , philomycidae , limacidae , milacidae , testacellidae , veronicellidae ) , absence of suitable moisture , except for the most ubiquitous of species such as deroceras reticulatum ( müller , 1774 ) , can serve as a barrier to movement ( frest and johannes , 1995 ) . members of these groups tend to have greater difficulty crossing areas of little moisture than other pulmonates . for tree snails ( family bulimulidae [ = orthalicidae ] ) , lack of appropriate arboreal habitat ( e . g . distance of greater than 500 m ) also serves as a separation barrier .

use the generic guidelines for the application of occurrence ranks ( 2008 ) . the key for ranking species occurrences using the generic approach provides a step - wise process for implementing this method .

arkansas has many plant and animal species , partly because of varied topography and a temperate climate . an abundance of wildlife and rich soils for planting crops drew many of the early european settlers to the state . many resources have been harvested or depleted . earlier generations did not take steps to ensure that certain species were protected as their numbers decreased , and today several plants and animals are classified as endangered , threatened , or rare .

the fish and wildlife service also maintains a list of “candidate” species , which have enough information and scientific data to warrant proposing them for listing but have not been proposed . in some cases , conservation actions are taken to reduce or remove the threats to those species . the preventive approach is taken for species that can benefit from early recovery efforts .

the list is dynamic . species are added and removed , as well as reclassified or moved between endangered and threatened . as of june 2005 , 389 animals and 599 plants were listed as endangered , along with 129 animals and 147 plants listed as threatened , in the united states . an additional 286 plant and animal species are listed as candidates .

four plants from arkansas are listed as endangered , and one is listed as threatened . the four endangered plants are missouri bladderpod , pondberry , harperella , and running buffalo clover . the threatened plant is geocarpon . all of these were listed in the late 1980s . additional research and fieldwork supports the continued listing of all except the running buffalo clover , which also carries the footnote that it may be a historic occurrence in arkansas .

2 . disjuncts are species whose populations occur in widely separated areas . an example is the sand cherry ( prunus pumila ) , a plant found primarily in the northern united states . isolated populations also occur in arkansas’s grand prairie .

3 . relics are plants and animals that probably were more common when the state’s climate was much different . as the climate changed , populations of these species died out , but small populations of some species continue to cling to appropriate habitat in the state . the deep ravines and protected slopes of the boston mountains provide areas rich in relict flora . some of the key plants include shining clubmoss , french’s shooting star , interrupted fern , and butternut .

4 . peripherals are species reaching the edge of their range . they tend to become less common and ultimately may qualify as rare . the plains harvest mouse ( reithrodontomys montanus ) , found throughout the great plains , becomes progressively rare southward into arkansas .

5 . habitat specificity includes certain species that are limited geographically by habitat requirements . for instance , the filmy fern ( trichomanes boschianum ) is found only in damp limestone grottoes or sandstone overhangs in deep canyons of the state’sboston mountains .

6 . human - induced rarity includes species that become rare as a result of human activities . loss of native habitat to such things as agricultural production and urban development has resulted in the decline of several species that were once more common in arkansas . the prairie mole cricket ( gryllotalpa major ) depends on tallgrass prairie . as prairies in arkansas were plowed for crop production , this species became progressively rare and is now restricted to isolated fragments of remaining habitat .

besides habitat loss , degradation of habitat from pollution can lead to species’ declining to the point of becoming rare . many freshwater mussel species that occur in arkansas rivers and streams depend on high water quality . alterations of river courses through channelization , urban and agricultural runoff , and increased sediment loads have had a negative effect on many species .

ozark mountains the limestone glades of the ozarks support a variety of rare plants , including a yellow coneflower , a skullcap , and a phlox . the springfield plateau contains arkansas’s only known location for white - flowered trillium , running strawberry bush , and lady’s slipper .

west gulf coastal plain arkansas oak grows in the sandy soils where the gulf of mexico once reached . the area’s alkaline soils have sodium levels that would be toxic to most plants but support the tiny herbaceous plant geocarpon in this area and a few sites in missouri .

mississippi alluvial plain what could easily be considered arkansas’s rarest plant occurs only in the grand prairie region of this plain . stern’s medlar is a large flowering shrub that produces clusters of white flowers . this plant was first described to science ( that is , described in a written form recognized by the appropriate scientific community ) in 1990 and is known to occur nowhere else .

crowley ’s ridge crowley’s ridge has several species , such as the tulip tree , that are found elsewhere only in the appalachians . among the rarest are the bigleaf magnolia , the climbing magnolia , and two species of turtlehead .

arkansas lists nineteen marsh and shore birds as rare , including the interior least tern , the great egret , the snowy egret , the wood stork , and the least bittern . the list includes seven sparrows and seven warblers . other birds include the anhinga , the black - billed cuckoo , the willow flycatcher , and the rusty blackbird .

seven bat species dominate the list of rare mammals . several rodents , such as shrews and harvest mice , are listed . larger mammals on the edge of their range are the eastern spotted skunk and the american badger .

the super nassarius snail from tonga combines unique beauty with unparalleled scavenging abilities . its oval , spiral shell is often said to resemble an olive pit , but it is much more ornate and elegant in its beauty . the most striking physical characteristic , however , is the long , tube - like siphon that protrudes from one end of the shell . this siphon is used to breathe while the super nassarius snail is buried in the substrate foraging for food . in addition to beauty , the nassarius distortus is an ideal detritus eater that also helps maintain adequate oxygen levels in the substrate as they burrow and sift through the sand . shop now : urltoken looking for expert information on all types of pets ? visit urltoken

the shells of various species of nassarius are popular with shell collectors , and are sometimes used in jewelry and other forms of decoration .

nassarius vibex is a species which is often selected for marine aquaria . it is often confused with nassarius obsoletus , a cooler water snail less suited to tropical marine aquarium temperatures . in aquaria , the nassarius is considered nearly indispensable for keeping sand beds clean and healthy , as these snails tend to burrow and plow through the upper layer in a conch - like fashion , keeping algae and detritus from building up visibly on the surface .

nassa lamarck , 1799 : established for the species buccinum mutabile linnaeus , 1758 , which is now classified as a synonym of nassarius duméril , 1805 in the family nassariidae .

the super tongan nassarius snail has an acute sense of smell and can quickly detect food when added to your aquarium . it is definitely fun to watch the sand boil with activity as the super tongan nassarius snail emerges from the substrate in search for the source of the scent . super tongan nassarius snails can typically find enough food in most marine aquariums with well - established sand beds . however , if food levels are not adequate , supplement their diet with frozen meaty foods , such as brine or mysis shrimp or pieces of fish or scallops .

according to van regteren altena et al . ( 1965 ) and van aartsen et al . ( 1984 ) hinia gray , 1847 is considered as a subgenus of nassarius duméril , 1806 .

the name is derived from the latin word " nassa " , meaning a wickerbasket with a narrow neck , for catching fish . nassarius would then mean " someone who uses such a wickerbasket for catching fish " .

most nassarius species are very active scavengers , feeding on crabs and carrion as dead fish , etc . they often burrow into marine substrates and then wait with only their siphon protruding , until they smell nearby food .

among the many species of nassarius snails found in the coastal zones of most oceans , the super nassarius snail is one of the largest and can grow up to 1 " in size . this size advantage over their much smaller relatives makes them ideal inhabitants in larger marine reef systems . however , since they spend most of their time buried in your aquarium substrate feeding on waste , uneaten food , and other detritus , they require a well - established aquarium with live rock and sufficient sand substrate .

a scavenging snail that eats dead organisms in the aquarium and helps to keep nitrite levels down . they like to burrow into the sand and search for food . the tonga nassarius snail has a very acute sense of smell and can find a dead creature to eat in moments .
