The purpose and effect of this rule amendment is to revise the Florida Endangered and Threatened Species List to reflect Federal listing changes. The Atlantic sturgeon and Miami blue are added as endangered species to the Federal-designated Endangered and Threatened Species part of the Florida Endangered and Threatened Species List due to Federal action to list these species. The Okaloosa darter’s status on the Federal-designated Endangered and Threatened Species portion of rule 68A-27.003 is revised from endangered to threatened due to Federal action to reclassify this species. The cassius blue butterfly, ceraunus blue butterfly, and nickerbean blue butterfly are added as threatened species due to similarity of appearance to the Miami blue butterfly due to Federal action to list these species.
