An environmental group called the Center for Biological Diversity earlier this week asked for the race to be postponed or relocated, citing concerns for potential harm to desert tortoises and Mohave ground squirrels and to rare plants, including the Barstow woolly sunflower and desert cymopterus.
The race also endangers two plant species, the Barstow woolly sunflower and desert cymopterus, Patterson said.
``The desert cymopterus absolutely warrants listing as an endangered species,'' said Daniel Patterson, an ecologist with the Center for Biological Diversity, which had sued the government over the issue.
