4 plants, 2 sites

3 increasing populations

Floreana

Floreana Flax

Linum cratericola

Population increase

20 plants

> 20 plants

Floreana,

San Cristóbal



Cutleaf Daisies;

Lecocarpus pinnatifidus and L. Darwinii.

Not declining

Baseline population estimate expected mid-2000s

Same as or more than mid-2000 baseline figures

Santiago

Galapagos Shrub Snapdragon Galvezia leucantha

Increasing No in established pop.

<60 plants

At least three stable or increasing populations

Removal of main threat (goats) to endemic species

&

Strengthening the Capacity for eradication of mega-populations



Isabela



Darwin’s Daisies

Darwini othamnus spp.

Not declining

Precise baseline figures to be estimated by mid-2000

Populations increased relative to baseline established in 2000

Daisy Trees Scalesia spp.

Increased regeneration and mature populations stable or increasing

Populations on Alcedo volcano severely depleted and with zero regeneration

Many young plants on Alcedo and stable or increased mature populations

Northern Isabela
