Oxyura jamaicensis

Agonopterix subpropinquella

Patagioenas subvinacea

Anolis maculigula

Coelioxys rufescens

Peltigera leucophlebia

The Ruffled Freckled Pelt Lichen faces severe threats from air pollution, particularly nitrogen deposition and sulfur compounds that alter its sensitive epiphytic habitat. Habitat loss through deforestation and urban development has eliminated many suitable host trees, while climate change is shifting precipitation patterns and temperature regimes beyond the species' tolerance limits.

Agyneta cauta

Munida sarsi

Pardosa agricola

The ruigtewolfspin (Pardosa agricola) faces severe population declines due to intensive agricultural practices that destroy its specialized habitat requirements. Agricultural intensification, pesticide use, and habitat fragmentation have dramatically reduced suitable breeding and foraging areas across its range, pushing remaining populations to critically low levels.

Adscita mannii

The Forester moth (Adscita mannii) faces severe population declines due to habitat loss from agricultural intensification and urban development across its European range. Climate change and the degradation of traditional grassland management practices have further reduced suitable breeding sites, while the species' specialized larval host plant requirements make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes.

Dytiscus dimidiatus

Dytiscus dimidiatus faces severe population declines due to widespread habitat degradation and loss of suitable aquatic environments. The species is particularly vulnerable to water pollution, eutrophication, and drainage of wetlands for agricultural and urban development, which have significantly reduced the availability of clean, well-oxygenated water bodies essential for its survival.

Psathyrella sphaerocystis

Gyps rueppellii

Rüppell's Vulture faces severe population declines across its African range due to widespread poisoning, both intentional and incidental, along with habitat loss and reduced food availability. The species has experienced catastrophic declines of over 80% in recent decades, making it one of Africa's most critically endangered raptors. Conservation status may vary by region or assessment authority, but the overall trajectory remains deeply concerning.

Nitidula rufipes

Nitidula rufipes faces severe population declines due to habitat destruction and degradation of its specialized microhabitats. The species' dependence on specific decaying organic matter and associated fungal communities makes it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes and habitat fragmentation.

Russula mustelina

Phaeocollybia lugubris

The Russet Rootshank faces severe threats from habitat loss due to deforestation and fragmentation of old-growth coniferous forests where it depends on specific mycorrhizal relationships. Climate change is altering the delicate moisture and temperature conditions required for fruiting body development, while pollution and soil acidification from industrial activities further degrade its specialized habitat requirements.

Coenonympha leander

Sphagnum russowii

Russula romellii

Russula melliolens

Russula azurea

Russula roseicolor

Russula persicina

Russula carpini

Russula lepidicolor

Russula laeta

Russula laeta faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to deforestation and forest fragmentation, which eliminates the specific mycorrhizal relationships this fungus requires with host trees. Climate change poses additional risks by altering temperature and moisture conditions essential for fruiting body development and spore dispersal.

Russula sublevispora

Russula luteotacta

Russula vinosopurpurea

Russula maculata

Russula seperina

Russula seperina faces severe threats from habitat loss due to deforestation and forest fragmentation, which destroys the specific mycorrhizal relationships essential for this fungal species' survival. Climate change is altering forest conditions and disrupting the delicate ecological balance required for spore production and dispersal. Pollution and soil contamination from agricultural runoff and industrial activities further degrade the forest ecosystems this species depends upon.

Russula odorata

Russula subterfurcata

Russula veternosa

Russula helodes

Russula puellula
