Tuesday, September 15, 7:00 PM. Shannon Lencioni, Navajo Nation Department of Fish and Wildlife: Status Report on Two Rare Cacti on the Navajo Nation
Shannon will provide a report on two tiny, rare cacti that grow on the Navajo
Nation: Brady’s Pincushion Cactus (Pediocactus bradyi) and Fickeisen Plains Cactus
(Pediocactus peeblesianus var. fickeiseniae), a northern Arizona endemic. This
presentation will provide an update of the four monitoring sites, including
survivorship, mortality, recruitment, and reproductive output.
Shannon is the botanist for the Navajo Natural Heritage Program. She has worked
within the Colorado Plateau since 2018, and has spent several seasons working on
vegetation crews in eastern Nevada and the Wyoming rangeland. In her free time
she is found either in the garden, baking pastries, or enjoying the backcountry with
her partner and dog.
