Title	Sign designating area for Endangered Braunton's milk-vetch
Alternative Title	Astragalus brauntonii
Contact	mailto:nctcimages@fws.gov
Creator	Spratt, Ashley
Description	Biologists from the Ventura Fish and Wildlife Office visited some of the few known sites for threatened and endangered plant species in southern California in Ventura and Los Angeles counties. Subspecies of the Dudleya cymosa (also known as the Santa Monica Mountains dudleya) as well as Lyon's pentachaeta, Braunton's millk-vetch and Dudleya parva are all classified on the list of Federally Threatened and Endangered Species. Each requires unique habitat to grow and reproduce, however, many of the threats impacting the species' survival are similar in nature. Urban development, changes in fire regimes, and non-native species all play a role in the long-term sustainability of these at-risk species. The Service works with partners to reduce threats to the species by contributing to monitoring and surveying, establishing recovery goals, participating in restoration projects, and continuing to build upon the scientific body of knowledge to improve our understanding of these unique flora.
