Summary
Pursuant to section 4(c)(2)(A) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) announces a 5-year review of the endangered purple bean (Villosa perpurpurea), clubshell (Pleurobema clava), northern red- bellied cooter (Pseudemys rubriventris bangsi), Roanoke logperch (Percina rex), northern riffleshell (Epioblasma torulosa rangiana), and dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon); and the threatened swamp pink (Helonias bullata), flat-spired three-toothed land snail (Triodopsis platysayoides), and Puritan tiger beetle (Cicindela puritana). A 5-year review is a periodic process conducted to ensure that the listing classification of a species is accurate. A 5-year review is based on the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of the review; therefore, we are requesting submission of any such information on the purple bean, clubshell, northern red-bellied cooter, Roanoke logperch, northern riffleshell, and dwarf wedgemussel, that has become available since their original listings as endangered species in 1997 (62 FR 1647-1658), 1993 (58 FR 5638-5642), 1980 (45 FR 21828-21833), 1989 (54 FR 34468-34472), 1993 (58 FR 5638-5642), and 1990 (55 FR 9447-9451), respectively. In addition, we are requesting submission of any such information on the swamp pink, flat-spired, three-toothed land snail, and Puritan tiger beetle that has become available since their listing as threatened species in 1988 (53 FR 35076-35080), 1978 (43 FR 28932- 28935), and 1998 (55 FR 32088-32094), respectively. Based on the results of these 5-year reviews, we will make the requisite findings under section 4(c)(2)(B) of the ESA.
