Smith FJ, Heil KD, Porter JM. 1990. Autumn Buttercup Ranunculus Acriformis A. Gray Var. Aestivalis L. Benson Recovery Plan. US Fish and Wildlife Service. Denver, CO

Protection of the existing population is of paramount importance for the preservation of the autumn buttercup. The species is perilously close to extinction and no preventable action which would harm the species sole remaining population or its habitat should be permitted. All conservation activities directed to the autumn buttercup population on The Nature Convervancy's preserve will be coordinated with The Conservancy's Great Basin Field Office and will be consistent with the Convervancy's planning and management documents including the Element Stewardship Abstract (Callister and Schelz 1990). A management plan will be developed by the Service in cooperation with the Nature Conservancy.
