Clubiona diversa

Luciobarbus guiraonis

Squalius valentinus

Hieracium denigrans

Välenfibbla faces severe threats from habitat loss due to agricultural expansion and urban development in its limited range. Climate change is altering the specific environmental conditions this specialized hawkweed requires, while invasive plant species compete for resources in its fragmented habitat patches.

Tephritis arnicae

Pristimantis cabrerai

Lecanora valesiaca

Valois Rim-lichen faces severe threats from air pollution and climate change, which alter the atmospheric conditions essential for its survival. The species' extremely restricted distribution in alpine and subalpine environments makes it particularly vulnerable to habitat degradation and environmental changes.

Pachyphiale carneola

Leucopaxillus nauseosodulcis

Vammel tragtridderhat faces severe population declines due to habitat destruction from deforestation and agricultural expansion across its limited range. Climate change is altering the specific soil chemistry and moisture conditions this fungal species requires for fruiting, while overcollection by foragers has further reduced viable populations in accessible areas.

Neriene hammeni

Aphelocheirus aestivalis

Vandvæggelus faces severe threats from water pollution, particularly agricultural runoff and industrial contamination that degrades the clean, well-oxygenated waters essential for its survival. Habitat destruction through river channelization, dam construction, and urban development has fragmented populations and reduced available breeding sites. Climate change is altering water temperatures and flow patterns, further stressing this specialized aquatic insect.

Calocaris macandreae

Megapodius layardi

Coenagrion pulchellum

Rubus horrefactus

Variable-leaved Bramble faces severe threats from habitat destruction and fragmentation due to agricultural expansion and urban development within its limited range. The species' specialized habitat requirements and small population size make it extremely vulnerable to environmental changes and human disturbance.

Myadestes coloratus

Diplobatis pictus

Hippodamia variegata

The Variegated Lady Beetle faces severe population declines primarily due to habitat loss from agricultural intensification and urban development. Pesticide use in agricultural areas has significantly reduced both the beetle populations and their aphid prey, while competition from introduced lady beetle species has further stressed native populations.

Carex stylosa

Haliplus varius

Haliplus varius faces severe threats from habitat degradation and loss of suitable aquatic environments. Water pollution, agricultural runoff, and urban development have significantly reduced the quality and availability of the clean, well-oxygenated waters this species requires for survival and reproduction.

Hamatocaulis vernicosus

Xenasma pruinosum

Hieracium prolatatum

Symmorphus fuscipes

Taraxacum vestrogothicum

Taraxacum vestrogothicum faces severe threats from habitat loss due to agricultural intensification and urban development in its limited range. The species' highly restricted distribution and specialized habitat requirements make it extremely vulnerable to environmental changes and human activities that alter or destroy its native grassland ecosystems.

Porpidia platycarpoides

Bagous binodulus

Bagous binodulus faces severe population declines due to widespread habitat destruction and degradation of wetland ecosystems across its range. The species' specialized dependence on specific aquatic plant hosts makes it particularly vulnerable to water pollution, invasive species, and climate-induced changes to freshwater systems.

Micarea adnata

Trapeliopsis glaucolepidea

Agrocybe firma

Lecanora scanica

Vedkantlav faces severe threats from air pollution and acid rain, which directly damage lichen tissues and alter the chemical composition of their substrates. Habitat loss through urbanization and intensive forestry practices has eliminated many suitable host trees and reduced population connectivity across its limited range.

Lecidella xylophila

Lecidella xylophila faces severe threats from habitat loss due to deforestation and logging activities that destroy the old-growth forests it depends on. Air pollution and acid rain further degrade the bark substrates essential for this lichen's survival, while climate change alters the specific microclimate conditions required for its growth.

Neoascia interrupta

Parhelophilus consimilis

Orthonevra intermedia

Russula sphagnophila

Pirata tenuitarsis

The veenpiraat faces severe threats from widespread destruction of its bog habitat through peat extraction, agricultural conversion, and wetland drainage. Climate change and pollution from agricultural runoff further degrade the specialized oligotrophic conditions this species requires for survival.

Symmorphus allobrogus

Pleurotus dryinus

Hygrophorus purpurascens

Pallavicinia lyellii

Veilwort faces severe threats from habitat destruction and degradation of its specialized wetland environments. This delicate liverwort is particularly vulnerable to water pollution, drainage of wetlands, and climate change impacts that alter moisture regimes essential for its survival.

Erysimum strictum

Lecanora soralifera

Alchemilla monticola

Hydnellum spongiosipes

Trachemys callirostris

Ilybius fenestratus

Aconitum napellus

Venus' Chariot faces severe population declines due to habitat destruction from agricultural expansion and urban development in its native mountain regions. Over-collection for traditional medicine and ornamental purposes has further depleted wild populations, while climate change threatens the cool, moist conditions this alpine species requires.

Legousia hybrida

Venus's-looking-glass faces severe population declines due to intensive agricultural practices and habitat loss across its range. The species is particularly vulnerable to herbicide use, changes in traditional farming methods, and the conversion of arable land to intensive monocultures that eliminate the disturbed soil conditions this annual plant requires for germination and establishment.

Entoloma olivaceotinctum
