## Abstract

The Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) determines threatened status for Arctostaphylos pallida (pallid manzanita) pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This plant species is found only in the northern Diablo Range of California in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. The primary threats to the species are the effects of fire suppression, and shading and competition from native and alien plants. To a lesser extent, the species is threatened by disease, herbicide spraying, hybridization, and the ongoing effects of habitat loss and fragmentation. This rule implements the Federal protection and recovery provisions afforded by the Act for this species.
