Ute Ladies Tresses Data Compilation

Conduct an extensive data gathering effort for Spiranthes diluvialis, compiling available presence and absence information for the species throughout its known range, with the goal of providing the best available information to enable effective evaluation and conservation of the species. To accomplish this goal, we propose to collect and synthesize Spiranthes data from agencies, consultants, and researchers who have conducted surveys or other sampling efforts within the states in the western U.S. that are understood to be part of the speciesâ¿¿ range. Data may reside in databases or spreadsheets maintained by these partners, in published papers or gray literature reports, or in other miscellaneous repositories.
