Gold-edged gem (Schinia avemensis) COSEWIC assessment and status report: chapter 10

Existing Protection or Other Status Designations

The Gold-edged Gem is currently not ranked through the Heritage Status system at global, national, state or provincial levels (NatureServe, 2004).

The Manitoba population occurs entirely or primarily within Spruce Woods Provincial Park and is protected as wildlife under Provincial Parks legislation, but there is no active protection or management specific to the moth. Two of the colonies in Saskatchewan (Burstall) and Alberta (Bindloss) are located on privately owned lands, the third (Pakowki Lake, AB) on leased provincial land.
