## Abstract

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are designating critical habitat for the Mariana fruit bat (Pteropus mariannus mariannus), Guam Micronesian kingfisher (Halcyon cinnamomina cinnamomina), and Mariana crow (Corvus kubaryi) pursuant to the Endangered Species Act, as amended (Act or ESA). We are designating approximately 376 acres (ac) (152 hectares (ha)) on the island of Guam for the Mariana fruit bat and the Guam Micronesian kingfisher. For the Mariana crow, we are designating approximately 376 ac (152 ha) on the island of Guam and approximately 6,033 ac (2,442 ha) on the island of Rota in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). On Guam, the Mariana fruit bat, Mariana crow, and Guam Micronesian kingfisher critical habitat unit boundaries are identical. On Rota, critical habitat is designated only for the Mariana crow. Counting identical or overlapping units only once for all three species, we are designating approximately 6,409 ac (2,594 ha) on Guam and Rota.
