Biology:IUCN Red List conservation dependent species

From HandWiki
A visualization of the categories in the no-longer used "IUCN 1994 Categories & Criteria(version 2.3)", with conservation dependent (LR/cd) highlighted. The category was folded into the Near Threatened (NT) category in the 2001 revision, but some species which have not been re-evaluated retain the assessment.

As of July 2016, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 238 conservation dependent species.[1] 0.29% of all evaluated species are listed as conservation dependent. The IUCN also lists seven subspecies and five varieties as conservation dependent.

Of the animal subpopulations evaluated by the IUCN, one species subpopulation and one subspecies subpopulation has been assessed as conservation dependent.

The conservation dependent category is part of the IUCN 1994 Categories & Criteria (version 2.3), which is no longer used in evaluation of taxa, but persists in the IUCN Red List for taxa evaluated prior to 2001, when version 3.1 was first used. Using the 2001 (v3.1) system these taxa are classed as near threatened, but those that have not been re-evaluated remain with the "conservation dependent" category.

This is a complete list of conservation dependent species and subspecies evaluated by the IUCN. Species and subspecies which have conservation dependent subpopulations are also indicated.
