Description

    Eriogonum tiehmii, known as Tiehm's buckwheat, is a species of flowering plant endemic to the Silver Peak Range of Esmeralda County, Nevada, in the United States.[4][5] Its only known population is at high risk of destruction due to proposed mining for lithium (used for batteries in electric vehicles)[6] by the Australian company Ioneer.[4][6] In 2020, a noticeable decline in the known population was attributed to herbivory.[6][7]
