In our 90- day finding on this petition (76 FR 47123, August 4, 2011), we determined that the petition presented substantial information indicating that listing may be warranted for four of the six species: Crescent Dunes aegialian scarab (Aegialia crescenta), Crescent Dunes serican scarab (Serica ammomenisco), large aegialian scarab (Aegialia magnifica), and Giuliani's dune scarab (Pseudocotalpa giulianii). We also determined that the petition did not present substantial information indicating that listing the other two species, Hardy's aegialian scarab (Aegialia hardyi) and Sand Mountain serican scarab (Serica psammobunus), may be warranted. We therefore initiated status reviews on only the Crescent Dunes aegialian scarab, Crescent Dunes serican scarab, large aegialian scarab, and Giuliani's dune scarab. After review of the best available scientific and commercial information, we find that listing these four beetle species is not warranted at this time. However, we ask the public to submit to us any new information that becomes available concerning the threats to these four beetle species or their habitat at any time. 77 FR 42238 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2012-07-18/2012-17526 2012-17526 fr18jy12-19 4310-55-P Docket No. FWS-R8-ES-2011-0041 4500030113 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2012-07-18/2012-17526 https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-07-18/html/2012-17526.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-07-18/pdf/2012-17526.pdf 14 p. 42238 42251 77 FR 42238 Title 50 Part 17 50 CFR Part 17 Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; 12-Month Finding on a Petition To List Six Sand Dune Beetles as Endangered or Threatened; Federal Register Vol. 77, Issue PRORULE 2012-17526 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Fish and Wildlife Service Docket No. FWS-R8-ES-2011-0041 4500030113 4310-55-P 2012-17526 Notice of 12-month petition finding.
