  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;We summarize the distribution, ecology, threats, and conservation status of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Faxonius marchandi&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="CIT0023"&gt;Hobbs, 1948&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt;), the Mammoth Spring crayfish, a limited-range endemic species to the Spring River drainage of Missouri and Arkansas, USA. The species is known from 51 locations on lower-order perennial and intermittent streams in only the eastern portion of the drainage.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Faxonius marchandi&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;is found in larger rocky substrates in shallower, slower-velocity habitats of well-buffered, mineral-rich streams. The invading alien crayfish&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Faxonius neglectus chaenodactylus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="CIT0047"&gt;Williams, 1952&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt;) is the most likely threat to&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;F&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;marchandi&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;. These compiled data should serve as a baseline for future comparison, and facilitate discussion about future management, conservation, and research efforts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
