Gander's ragwort Packera ganderi

Goal: Maintain or enhance existing Gander's ragwort occurrences to ensure multiple conserved occurrences with self sustaining populations to increase resilience to environmental and demographic stochasticity, maintain genetic diversity, and ensure persistence over the long term (>100 years) in chaparral vegetation communities.

regional and/or local NFO 2018, 2020 SO
MON-IMP-IMG PACGAN-1

Management units: 3, 4

Beginning in 2018, inspect Gander's ragwort occurrences on Conserved Lands (see occurrence table) every 3 years using the regional rare plant IMG monitoring protocol to record abundance and collect habitat and threats covariate data to determine management needs.

Action Statement Action status Projects
IMP-1 Based upon occurrence status and threats, determine management needs including whether routine management or more intensive management is warranted. on hold
IMP-2 Modify IMG protocol to improve mapping and estimating abundance of large occurrences with difficult to delineate boundaries. In 2018 focus on mapping occurrence boundaries. on hold

PACGAN-2 MGT-IMP-IMG Beginning in 2017, conduct routine management actions identified through the IMG monitoring in 2016 and subsequent years at Gander's ragwort occurrences on Conserved Lands (see occurrence table). Depending on the type and level of threat, management should be conducted as needed, not necessarily every year, and using BMPs with precautions to do no harm.
