Two plant species currently included on the Montana Natural 

 Heritage Program list of plant species of special concern (Shelly 

 1989) were found during the surveys in the Mill Creek drainage: 

 Carex multicostata and Erigeron formosissimus . Both of these 

 species are also listed as "Rare" by Lesica et al. (1984). 

 Additionally, Carex multicostata is included on the U.S. Forest 

 Service Region 1 Watch List (U.S. Department of Agriculture 

 1988). Appendix A of Section One (pp. 24-34) contains reports 

 for these species.
