Peltigera collina

Tree Pelt Lichen (Peltigera collina) is critically endangered primarily due to habitat loss from deforestation and land conversion, combined with air pollution that degrades the specific environmental conditions this sensitive lichen requires. Climate change is exacerbating these pressures by altering temperature and moisture regimes in its remaining forest habitats.

Anthus trivialis

Balea perversa

Balea perversa faces severe threats from habitat destruction and fragmentation of its specialized limestone environments. Climate change and pollution further compromise the delicate conditions required for this species' survival, while its restricted range and specific habitat requirements make it extremely vulnerable to environmental changes.

Certhia familiaris

Menegazzia terebrata

Cliostomum corrugatum

Hermaea bifida

Aethes triangulana

Xylota triangularis

Saaristoa firma

Schoenoplectus triqueter

Triangular Club-rush faces severe threats from habitat loss due to coastal development, wetland drainage, and sea-level rise affecting its specialized estuarine environments. The species' restricted distribution and dependence on specific tidal conditions make remaining populations extremely vulnerable to environmental changes and human disturbance.

Salaria economidisi

The Trichonis blenny faces severe threats due to its extremely restricted range, being endemic to Lake Trichonis in Greece. Water level fluctuations, pollution from agricultural runoff, and habitat degradation from human activities around the lake pose significant risks to this highly localized species.

Cobitis trichonica

Notocelia trimaculana

Thujacorticium zurhausenii

Hygrolycosa rubrofasciata

Arthothelium norvegicum

Biatora troendelagica

Biatora troendelagica faces severe threats from habitat degradation and loss of suitable substrate conditions in its specialized environments. Air pollution and climate change are altering the delicate chemical and moisture conditions required for this lichen's survival, while human activities continue to reduce available habitat.

Rinodina disjuncta

Thamnobryum subserratum

Coelioxys obtusispina

Carex vulpina

Chloriona unicolor

Gyalecta truncigena

Truncated Dimple Lichen faces severe threats from air pollution and acid rain, which directly damage its sensitive thallus and disrupt its photosynthetic processes. Habitat loss through deforestation and urban development has eliminated many of its specialized microhabitats, while climate change is altering the precise moisture and temperature conditions this species requires for survival.

Doloploca punctulana

Bactris pickelii

Poospiza baeri

Aphileta misera

Paludella squarrosa

Trichophorum cespitosum

Carcharodus floccifera

Polygala comosa

Tufted milkwort faces severe population declines due to habitat loss from agricultural intensification and urban development across its native range. The species' specialized requirements for nutrient-poor calcareous grasslands make it particularly vulnerable to changes in land management practices and habitat fragmentation.

Sagina caespitosa

Carex elata

Lophozia ventricosa

Neolamprologus christyi

Consolea macracantha

Tuna de Cruz faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to coastal development, tourism infrastructure, and urban expansion across its limited range in the Caribbean. The species is further threatened by invasive plant species that compete for resources and alter ecosystem dynamics, while climate change impacts including sea level rise and increased storm intensity threaten its coastal habitats.

Arnellia fennica

Malacodea regelaria

Cladonia peziziformis

Mannophryne leonardoi

Ceutorhynchus assimilis

The Turnip Gall Weevil faces severe population declines due to intensive agricultural practices that eliminate its host plants and breeding sites. Widespread pesticide use in agricultural areas directly kills adults and larvae, while habitat fragmentation isolates remaining populations and reduces genetic diversity.

Arenaria interpres

Geocalyx graveolens

Dacnis hartlaubi

Epipedobates espinosai

Pouteria furcata

Tapinocyba biscissa

Rugathodes instabilis

Rainieria calceata
