Endangered pollinators and their habitats is the theme of the 2019 Pollinator Partnership poster that is available to order at https://www.pollinator.org/shop/posters. The poster includes pollinator species that are at risk and listed as federally endangered or threatened.
Associated with the butterflies, moths, bees, birds, bats and one fly 1 are the plants that are important for their survival. We thought it would be helpful to show you some of those plants from our Plants Map community that have been documented at public landscapes or available from a resource on Plants Map.
