KEY: Imperiled, at high risk of extinction because of highly restricted range, rare populations (often 20 or fewer), steep declines, or other factors; data deficient, inadequate information for assessment of risk category because of a lack of information about population size or about threats to the population or because of taxonomic uncertainty about the validity of the taxon; vulnerable, at moderate risk of extinction because of restricted range, relatively rare populations (often 80 or fewer), recent and widespread declines, or other factors; critically imperiled, at high risk of extinction because of extreme rarity of populations (often 5 or fewer), steep declines, or other factors; possibly extinct, missing or known only from historical occurrences but with some hope of rediscovery. *Listed under the terms of the U.S. Endangered Species Act. †Listed under the terms of Canada’s Species at Risk Act.
