Goodvera repens G5S2S3 Sensitive 



This species might possibly occur in the Big Belt Mountains 

 on moist limestone slopes of old growth Doug fir forests in 

 the montane zone at elevations of 5700-6100'. The species 

 begins flowering in late July to August. The confidence 

 level of the habitat profile is high and that of the species 

 occurrence is medium. 



Juncus hallii G4G5S2 Sensitive 



The species was relocated in the Big Belt Mountains during 

 the course of this study. It might also be found in the 

 Elkhorn Mountains in montane to alpine moist grasslands and 

 sedge meadows at 4000-8400' elevation. Flowering occurs 

 during July to August. The species habitat profile may need 

 more refinement. 



Lesquerella klausii G3S3 



Most individuals and populations of this Montana endemic are 

 found within the Big Belt Mountains. The species occurs on 

 open shale slopes and gravelly areas at moderately to fairly 

 high elevations (4000-7100') in the mountains. It flowers 

 from May to early June, with fruiting beginning in late May 

 and continuing through June. 



Oxytropis laqopus G4T3S3 



var. coniuqans 



This Montana endemic probably occurs in the Big Belt 

 Mountains on limestone outcrops in sagebrush areas to the 

 lower mountains at elevations of 3900-6120'. Flowering 

 occurs May to June, and fruiting happens during July. The 

 confidence level of the habitat profile and of the species 

 occurrence is high. 



Phlox kelseyi G4T2QS2 Sensitive 3C 



var. missoulensis 



This taxon usually occurs on gravelly windswept ridges and 

 slopes, although sometimes it grows in forb dominated 

 meadows. It is found at elevations of 3600-7540', and could 

 occur in the Big Belt and Elkhorn Mountains. Flowering 

 lasts from May to June. The confidence level of the habitat 

 profile is high while that of the species occurrence is 

 medium. 



Polygonum doucflasii G4T4S2 Sensitive 



ssp. austinae 



This taxon was found at several sites in the Big Belt 

 Mountains during the course of this study. It occurs on 

 open, gravelly, often shale-derived soil of eroding slopes 

 and banks in montane zone, or on usually moist barren shale 

 slopes at 5140-6600' elevation. It flowers in July, and 

 fruit matures in August.
