The information originates from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species platform. Red List Status Trend by IUCN Threats by IUCN CMS Status CMS STATUS Listed: Species or subspecies THREATS BY IUCN currently listed as such in one or both Appendices.

Critically endangered – Extremely high risk of providing for three levels extinction in the wild. (meaning of the codes are at Endangered – Very high risk of extinction in the wild. the end of the report). Vulnerable – High risk of extinction in the wild. Near threatened – Likely to become endangered in the near future. Least concern – Lowest risk; does not qualify for a higher risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category. Data deficient – Not enough data to assess its risk of extinction. 2 UNEP/CMS/COP13/Doc.24/Annex 2 Species in Appendix I 1. Migratory species included in Appendix I are referred to in this table by the name of the species or subspecies as it appears in the Appendix, as well as its common name. 2. Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only. 3. This table compiles information concerning the global population of the species or subspecies listed; it does not consider the level of the geographic population as indicated in Appendix I for some species. 4. Taxa for which no IUCN Red List assessment is available are indicated in the table as ‘Not Assessed’. It should be noted that, in a certain number of cases, the lack of an assessment for the CMS-listed taxon is due to differences in the taxonomy and nomenclature in use by CMS and IUCN. 3 UNEP/CMS/COP13/Doc.24/Annex 2 Mammalia Trend by Date Order and Family Scientific name Common name Red List Status Threats by IUCN IUCN Assessed SIRENIA Trichechidae Trichechus manatus (populations American 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1.4, 2.4.3, 4.3, 5.4.1, 5.4.2, 5.4.4, 6.1, 7.2.8, 7.2.11, 7.3, Vulnerable ↓ 2008 between Honduras and Panama) Manatee 8.2, 9.1.1, 9.2.3, 9.3.4, 9.6.3, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1.3, 2.4.3, 3.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.3.3, 5.3.5, 5.4.1, 5.4.3, 5.4.4, Trichechus senegalensis African Manatee Vulnerable Unk 5.4.5, 5.4.6, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7.2.1, 7.2.9, 7.2.10, 7.2.11, 7.3, 9.1.1, 9.2.1, 2015 9.2.3, 9.3.1, 9.3.2, 9.3.3, 9.4, 9.6.3, 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4 PRIMATES Hominidae 1.1, 1.3, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.3.4, 3.1, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, Gorilla beringei Eastern Gorilla Critically Endangered ↓ 2018 5.3.3, 5.3.4, 6.1, 6.2, 7.1.3, 8.2, 8.5.1, 11.1 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 5.3.4, 8.2, 8.5.1, 8.5.2, Gorilla gorilla Western Gorilla Critically Endangered ↓ 2016 11.1 1.1, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 5.3.3, 5.3.4, 8.2, Pan troglodytes Chimpanzee Endangered ↓ 2016 8.5.1, 8.5.2, 11.1 CHIROPTERA Molossidae Mexican Free- Tadarida brasiliensis Least concern ─ No major threats 2015 Tailed Bat CARNIVORA Felidae Acinonyx jubatus (except populations in Botswana, Namibia Cheetah Vulnerable ↓ 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 4.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 6.1, 6.2, 8.2.1, 8.2.2 2014 and Zimbabwe) Uncia uncia Snow Leopard Vulnerable ↓ 1.1, 1.3, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 6.2, 8.2.1, 11.5 2016 Ursidae Ursus arctos isabellinus (populations in Gobi Bear Not Assessed Mongolia and China) Phocidae Mediterranean 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 4.3, 5.4.2, 5.4.4, 5.4.5, 6.1, 6.2, 7.3, 8.1.2, 8.2, 8.6, 9.1.3, Monachus monachus Endangered ↑ 2015 Monk Seal 9.2.1, 9.2.3, 9.3.4, 11.1 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 3.1, 4.3, 5.4.1, 5.4.2, 5.4.4, 6.1, 6.3, 7.3, 8.1.2, 9.2.1, Pusa caspica Caspian Seal Endangered Unk 2015 9.3.3, 9.6.3, 11.1, 12.1 Mustelidae 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 3.2, 5.1.1, 5.3.5, 5.4.4, 5.4.5, 6.1, 6.3, 8.1.2, 9.1.3, 9.2.1, Lontra felina Marine Otter Endangered ↓ 2014 9.2.3, 9.4, 9.6.3 Southern River 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.2.2, 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 2.4.3, 5.1.1, 5.3.4, 5.4.4, Lontra provocax Endangered ↓ 6.1, 7.1.3, 7.2.11, 7.3, 8.1.2, 8.2, 8.5.2, 9.1.3, 9.2.3, 9.3.2, 9.3.4, 9.4, 2014 Otter 9.6.3 4 UNEP/CMS/COP13/Doc.24/Annex 2 Trend by Date Order and Family Scientific name Common name Red List Status Threats by IUCN IUCN Assessed PERISSODACTYLA Equidae Equus africanus African Wild Ass Critically Endangered ↓ 2.3.1, 5.1.1, 6.2, 8.1.2, 11.2 2014 Equus ferus przewalskii Przewalski's horse Endangered ↑ 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 5.1.1, 6.2, 3.2, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4 2014 Equus grevyi Grevy's Zebra Endangered ─ 1.1, 2.1.4, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 5.1.1, 6.2, 7.2.8, 7.2.11, 8.1.2 2016 ARTIODACTYLA Camelidae Camelus bactrianus Bactrian Camel Critically Endangered ↓ 1.2, 2.3.1, 3.2, 5.1.1, 5.1.3, 8.2 2008 Vicugna vicugna 1.1, 1.3, 2.1.2, 2.3.2, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, 7.2.2, 7.2.3, 7.3, 8.1.1, 8.2, 8.3, Vicuna Least concern ↑ 2018 (except Peruvian populations) 11.1, 11.2, 11.3 Cervidae Patagonian 1.1, 1.3, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.2.1, 2.2.3, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 3.2, 4.1, 5.1.1, Hippocamelus bisulcus Endangered ↓ 2015 Huemul 5.3.5, 6.1, 6.3, 7.1.3, 7.2.11, 8.1.1, 8.1.2, 8.2.1 Cervus elaphus barbarus Barbary stag Not Assessed Cervus elaphus yarkandensis (populations in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Yarkand deer Not Assessed Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan) Bovidae Red-fronted Eudorcas rufifrons Vulnerable ↓ 1.1, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 5.1.1, 11.2 2016 Gazelle Gazella cuvieri Cuvier's gazelle Vulnerable ↓ 2.1.2, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 5.1.1, 6.2 2016 Gazella Dorcas Dorcas Gazelle Vulnerable ↓ 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 5.1.1,

  • Melagiris (Tamil Nadu)
    MELAGIRIS (TAMIL NADU) PROPOSAL FOR IMPORTANT BIRD AREA (IBA) State : Tamil Nadu, India District : Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri Coordinates : 12°18©54"N 77°41©42"E Ownership : State Area : 98926.175 ha Altitude : 300-1395 m Rainfall : 620-1000 mm Temperature : 10°C - 35°C Biographic Zone : Deccan Peninsula Habitats : Tropical Dry Deciduous, Riverine Vegetation, Tropical Dry Evergreen Proposed Criteria A1 (Globally Threatened Species) A2 (Endemic Bird Area 123 - Western Ghats, Secondary Area s072 - Southern Deccan Plateau) A3 (Biome-10 - Indian Peninsula Tropical Moist Forest, Biome-11 - Indo-Malayan Tropical Dry Zone) GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Melagiris are a group of hills lying nestled between the Cauvery and Chinnar rivers, to the south-east of Hosur taluk in Tamil Nadu, India. The Melagiris form part of an almost unbroken stretch of forests connecting Bannerghatta National Park (which forms its north-western boundary) to the forests of Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary - Karnataka (which forms its southern boundary, separated by the river Cauvery), and further to Biligirirangan hills and Sathyamangalam forests. The northern and western parts are comparatively plain and is part of the Mysore plateau. The average elevation in this region is 500-1000 m. Ground sinks to 300m in the valley of the Cauvery and the highest point is the peak of Guthereyan at 1395.11 m. Red sandy loam is the most common soil type found in this region. Small deposits of alluvium are found along Cauvery and Chinnar rivers and Kaoline is found in some areas near Jowlagiri. The temperature ranges from 10°C ± 35°C. South-west monsoon is fairly active mostly in the northern areas, but north-east monsoon is distinctly more effective in the region.

    #86 Bird-o-soar 21 May 2021 Rediscovery of Crested Goshawk from southern Bengal, India Crested Goshawk Accipiter trivirgatus (Temminck, 1824) is a small-sized bird of prey belonging to the family Accipitridae. It is considered as Least Concern as per IUCN assessment in 2016 (BirdLife International 2016). This bird species is resident and can be found mainly in the Himalaya, northeastern portion and southwestern region of the Indian subcontinent where it prefers mostly the dense, deciduous, evergreen tropical, and subtropical forests Image 1.
