Gronops lunatus

Unknown

Overview

A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.

The narvgropvivel faces significant pressure from coastal development and tourism infrastructure along its specialized rocky intertidal habitat. Rising sea levels and increased storm intensity associated with climate change threaten to submerge critical feeding areas during low tide periods. Pollution from agricultural runoff and urban development has degraded water quality in many of its remaining coastal strongholds.

Threat summary

Habitat

The narvgropvivel inhabits rocky intertidal zones and shallow coastal waters, particularly favoring areas with complex boulder formations and tidal pools. It requires specific salinity gradients and relies on the twice-daily tidal cycle to access both feeding and breeding microhabitats.

Frequently asked questions

Why is narvgropvivel classified as Vulnerable?
narvgropvivel is classified as Vulnerable because the population is declining and the species faces a high risk of extinction in the medium-term future if current pressures continue. The narvgropvivel faces significant pressure from coastal development and tourism infrastructure along its specialized rocky intertidal habitat. Rising sea levels and increased storm intensity associated with climate change threaten to submerge critical feeding areas during low tide periods. Pollution from agricultural runoff and urban development has degraded water quality in many of its remaining coastal strongholds.
Where does narvgropvivel live?
narvgropvivel occurs in Austria, Belarus, Denmark, Estonia, France, and Germany (plus 13 other countries). Country-level distribution data is sourced from the IUCN Red List and cross-referenced with GBIF occurrences.
What are the main threats to narvgropvivel?
The main threats to narvgropvivel are ai-1, ai-2, ai-3, and ai-4. The full IUCN-classified threat record for this species is detailed on the species page.
