USFWS withdraw the proposal to remove Phyllostegia glabra var. lanaiensis from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Plants (List). This withdrawal is based on new surveys conducted over the past 3 years since completing the 5-year review for the species; these surveys have identified new suitable habitats comprised of native vegetation within the former range of P. glabra var. lanaiensis. Therefore, they determined that additional information is needed before concluding that the species is extinct. With this withdrawal of the proposal, P. glabra var. lanaiensis will remain on the List as endangered. Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, they publish a final rule removing 21 species that were part of their 30 September 2021, proposed rule. The proposal to remove P. glabra var. lanaiensis from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Plants, which published on September 30, 2021 (86 FR 54298), is withdrawn on 17 October 2023. POC is Earl Campbell, Field Supervisor, Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office tele 808–792–9400. (Federal Register 17 October 2023 [Proposed Rule] Pages 71520-71523).
