Table 5: Threatened Species in Each Country (Totals by Taxonomic Group) IUCN Red List version 2020-1: Table 5 Last updated: 19 March 2020 Table 5: Threatened species in each country (totals by taxonomic group) * Reptiles, fishes, molluscs, other invertebrates, plants, fungi & protists: please note that for these groups, there are still many species that have not yet been assessed for the IUCN Red List and therefore their status is not known (i.e., these groups have not yet been completely assessed). Therefore the figures presented below for these groups should be interpreted as the number of species known to be threatened within those species that have been assessed to date, and not as the overall total number of threatened species for each group.

Guidelines for appropriate uses of IUCN Red List Data. Incorporating, as Annexes, the 1) Guidelines for Reporting on Proportion Threatened (ver. 1.1); 2) Guidelines on Scientific Collecting of Threatened Species (ver. 1.0); and 3) Guidelines for the Appropriate Use of the IUCN Red List by Business (ver. 1.0). Version 3.0. Adopted by the IUCN Red List Committee. THE IUCN RED LIST OF THREATENED SPECIES™ GUIDELINES FOR APPROPRIATE USES OF RED LIST DATA The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ is the world’s most comprehensive data resource on the status of species, containing information and status assessments on over 80,000 species of animals, plants and fungi. As well as measuring the extinction risk faced by each species, the IUCN Red List includes detailed species-specific information on distribution, threats, conservation measures, and other relevant factors. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ is increasingly used by scientists, governments, NGOs, businesses, and civil society for a wide variety of purposes. These Guidelines are designed to encourage and facilitate the use of IUCN Red List data and information to tackle a broad range of important conservation issues. These Guidelines give a brief introduction to The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ (hereafter called the IUCN Red List), the Red List Categories and Criteria, and the Red List Assessment process, followed by some key facts that all Red List users need to know to maximally take advantage of this resource.

The IUCN Red List, which determines the risks of extinction to species, plays an important role in guiding conservation activities of governments, NGOs and scientific institutions, and is recognized worldwide for its objective approach. In order to produce the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™, the IUCN Species Programme, working together with the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC) and members of IUCN, draw on and mobilize a network of partner organizations and scientists worldwide. One such partner organization is the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI), who, through the Threatened Species Programme (TSP), contributes information on the conservation status and biology of threatened species in southern Africa.

  • IUCN Red List
    IUCN Red List The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (also known as the IUCN Red List or The IUCN Red List of Red Data List), founded in 1964, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of Threatened Species the global conservation status of biological species. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is the world's main authority on the conservation status of species. A series of Regional Red Lists are produced by countries or organizations, which assess the risk of extinction to species within a political management unit. The IUCN Red List is set upon precise criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousands of species and subspecies. These criteria are relevant to all species and all regions of the world. The aim is to convey the urgency of conservation issues to the public and policy makers, as well as help the international community to try to reduce species extinction. According to IUCN (1996), the formally stated goals of the Red List are (1) to provide scientifically based information on the status of Headquarters United Kingdom species and subspecies at a global level, (2) to draw attention to the magnitude and Region International importance of threatened biodiversity, (3) to influence national and international served policy and decision-making, and (4) to provide information to guide actions to Official English conserve biological diversity.[1] language Parent International Union Major species assessors include BirdLife International, the Institute of Zoology (the organization for Conservation of research division of the Zoological Society of London), the World Conservation Nature Monitoring Centre, and many Specialist Groups within the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC).

By evaluating the extinction risk of thousands of species, it is a powerful tool to inform and catalyse action for biodiversity conservation. It also influences the policy changes that are critical to protecting the natural resources and processes that humans rely on. Dr. Jane Smart – Director IUCN Global Species Programme We live within the limits set by nature. Unprecedented levels of biodiversity loss undermine some of society’s most important goals. The IUCN Red List is the starting point for conservation action. With the collaborative efforts of governments, business and civil society, ENDANGERED we could turn back the tide of species loss to ensure a sustainable EN future for all.

  • An Updated Checklist of Globally Threatened Species in Bhutan As Listed in IUCN Red List of Threatened Species
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 3 February 2021 doi:10.20944/preprints202102.0124.v1 An Updated Checklist of Globally Threatened Species in Bhutan as listed in IUCN Red List of Threatened Species Tej Kumar Nepal1,* & Manita2 1Student, M.Sc. in Ecology and Environment Studies, Nalanda University, Bihar, India 2Student, B.A. in English & Media Studies, Sherubtse College, Royal University of Bhutan, Trashigang, Bhutan *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Bhutan lies to the East of Himalaya and it hosts around 11,248 species in all taxa. Bhutan’s lush and green forest covers 71 percent of land which comes under the five National Parks, four Wildlife Sanctuaries, 1 Strict Nature Reserve, Community Forests and biological corridors connecting different protected areas. More than half (51.44 percent) is protected by law and activities are restricted under certain circumstances. It is home to Takin (Budorcas taxicolor whitei), White-bellied Heron (Ardea insignis), Black-necked Crane (Grus nigricollis), Red Panda (Ailurus fulgens), Great Hornbill (Buceros bicornis) and Chinese Pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) that are globally threatened. Bhutan contributed around 23 new species between 2017 and 2020 which were new to science, and Bhutan’s biodiversity holds immense opportunities for researchers and environmental scientists as its biodiversity is in early stage of discovery. To date, Bhutan records 1 species as Extinct (EX), 1 species as Extinct in the Wild (EW) and 134 species as Vulnerable (VU), Endangered (EN) and Critically Endangered (CR) under International Union of Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species. This paper aims to report a checklist of globally threatened species listed in IUCN Red List of Threatened Species from Bhutan.
