Clavulicium macounii

Glareola ocularis

Atlantica gueriniana

The Madeiran Land Snail faces severe threats from habitat destruction and degradation on the island of Madeira, where its native laurel forest ecosystem has been extensively cleared for agriculture and development. Introduced species, particularly invasive plants and predatory species, have further compromised the remaining suitable habitat. Climate change and increased frequency of droughts pose additional stress to this moisture-dependent species.

Pieris wollastoni

The Madeiran Large White is critically endangered due to severe habitat loss and degradation on the island of Madeira, where its native laurel forest ecosystem has been extensively cleared for agriculture and development. The species is also threatened by invasive plant species that have altered the composition of remaining forest patches, reducing the availability of its host plants.

Baryphyma pratense

Asperugo procumbens

Prochilodus magdalenae

Sphagnum magellanicum

Alectryon macrococcum

Alectryon macrococcum faces severe population decline primarily due to habitat destruction from agricultural expansion and urban development across its limited range. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, with remaining populations fragmented and isolated.

Dombeya acutangula

Dombeya acutangula is critically endangered due to severe habitat loss and degradation on the island of Mauritius. The species faces ongoing threats from urban development, agricultural expansion, and invasive plant species that compete for resources and alter native ecosystem dynamics.

Oxandra espintana

Oxandra espintana is critically endangered primarily due to severe habitat loss and fragmentation from agricultural expansion and urban development in its extremely limited range in Cuba. The species has a very small population size and restricted distribution, making it highly vulnerable to any environmental changes or human activities in its habitat.

Helicteres trapezifolia

Helicteres trapezifolia faces severe population decline primarily due to habitat destruction from coastal development and agricultural expansion along its limited range. The species' extremely restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, with remaining populations fragmented and isolated.

Peltaea speciosa

Peltaea speciosa (Majaguin) faces severe population decline primarily due to extensive habitat loss from deforestation and agricultural expansion in its limited range. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, while its specialized habitat requirements further compound conservation challenges.

Hildegardia populifolia

Hildegardia populifolia faces severe population decline primarily due to habitat destruction from deforestation and agricultural expansion in its native range across India and Southeast Asia. The species is further threatened by overexploitation for its timber and medicinal properties, combined with its naturally fragmented distribution and low reproductive success.

Aristogeitonia monophylla

Platysilurus malarmo

Alangium longiflorum

Nephrotoma lundbecki

The threats to mallanniittykirsikäs (Nephrotoma lundbecki) have not been assessed or documented by scientists yet. Without this threat assessment, it's unclear what specific dangers this species faces or how human activities might be affecting its survival. The status of threats to this species - whether they are getting worse, staying the same, or improving - cannot be determined without further research.

Galeatus spinifrons

Annona cascarilloides

Mamoncillo (Annona cascarilloides) is critically endangered primarily due to severe habitat loss and fragmentation from agricultural expansion and urban development in its limited range in Colombia. The species has an extremely restricted distribution and small population size, making it highly vulnerable to any environmental changes or human activities in its remaining habitat.

Garcinia aristata

Potamorhina laticeps

Carsia sororiata

Crossoptilon mantchuricum

Persicaria foliosa

Bagous diglyptus

Camarhynchus heliobates

The Mangrove Finch is critically endangered due to its extremely restricted range, being found only in mangrove forests on Isabela Island in the Galápagos. The species faces severe threats from habitat degradation, invasive species, and parasitic flies that attack nestlings, with the total population estimated at fewer than 100 individuals.

Karsholtia marianii

Araschnia levana

Coregonus maraena

Tepuihyla luteolabris

Epicrionops marmoratus

The Marbled Caecilian faces severe threats primarily from habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion, deforestation, and urban development in its limited range in Ecuador. As a soil-dwelling amphibian with specific moisture and temperature requirements, it is particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation and degradation. Its extremely restricted distribution makes the species highly susceptible to local extinctions from human activities.

Marmaronetta angustirostris

Eleotrica cableae

Carcharodus lavatherae

The Marbled Skipper faces severe population declines primarily due to habitat loss and degradation of its specialized Mediterranean scrubland environments. Agricultural intensification, urban development, and changes in traditional land management practices have fragmented and destroyed the warm, rocky slopes with sparse vegetation that this species requires for survival.

Leopardus wiedii

Colletes marginatus

Oxyna nebulosa

Eupholidoptera mariannae

Rhinodoras thomersoni

Brosimum glaziovii

Enoplognatha oelandica

Tephroseris palustris

Marsh Fleawort faces severe decline primarily due to habitat loss and degradation of its specialized wetland environments. Agricultural intensification, drainage of marshlands, and changes in water management have eliminated much of its suitable habitat across its limited range. The species' highly specific ecological requirements make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes and human disturbance.

Euphydryas aurinia

The Marsh Fritillary faces severe population declines across its range due to habitat loss and fragmentation of its specialized wetland environments. Agricultural intensification, drainage of marshlands, and abandonment of traditional low-intensity grazing practices have eliminated critical breeding sites and reduced the availability of its primary host plant, devil's-bit scabious.

Pelophylax ridibundus

Rhododendron tomentosum

Marsh Labrador tea faces severe threats from wetland habitat destruction and degradation due to agricultural conversion, urban development, and drainage projects. Climate change is altering precipitation patterns and temperature regimes in its specialized bog and wetland habitats, while pollution from agricultural runoff and industrial activities degrades water quality in these sensitive ecosystems.

Pedicularis palustris

Athetis pallustris

Carex buxbaumii

Marsh Sedge faces severe threats from widespread wetland habitat loss and degradation due to agricultural conversion, urban development, and altered hydrology from drainage projects. Climate change is intensifying these pressures by altering precipitation patterns and increasing drought frequency in critical wetland ecosystems. Conservation status may vary by region or assessment authority, but populations continue to decline across much of the species' range.

Euphorbia palustris

Marsh Spurge faces severe threats from wetland habitat destruction and degradation due to agricultural conversion, urban development, and water management practices that alter natural hydrological regimes. The species' specialized requirements for specific wetland conditions make it particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation and water level changes, leading to population declines across its range.
