Title: Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Listing Determination for the Highlands and Miami Tiger Beetles 
Abstract:

Under the Endangered Species Act, we will make listing determinations for the Highlands and Miami tiger beetles. We will also designate critical habitat, if determined to be prudent and determinable, for the species in a separate rulemaking action (RIN 1018-BA15). The Highlands tiger beetle is a species endemic to the scrub and sandhill habitat of sand dunes in Lake Wales Ridge in Polk and Highlands Counties, Florida. The Miami tiger beetle is a species endemic to the Richmond pine rocklands habitat in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
