The European Red List is a review of the conservation status of European species according to IUCN regional Red Listing guidelines. It identifies those species that are threatened with extinction at the regional level, so that appropriate conservation action can be taken to improve their status.

Published almost at the halfway point of the 2011–2020 Strategic Plan for Biodiversity, this fourth edition of the Global Biodiversity Outlook (GBO-4) provides a timely report: on progress towards meeting the 20 Aichi Biodiversity Targets and potential actions to accelerate that progress; on pros

Madagascar is one of the most biologically diverse places on the planet; more than 80% of its species are not found anywhere else on Earth.

<p>This report includes an inventory of data and information on the Iraqi marshland ecosystem; technical guidance on the assessment framework and tools for ecosystem management and biodiversity conservation with regard to the requirements for World Heritage nomination; and guidance on the d

A obra centra-se nas áreas protegidas enquanto instrumento fundamental na protecção da biodiversidade marinha.

This publication aims to advance conceptual thinking and legal understanding about important law and policy tools and options for supporting the connectivity of protected area systems.

The World Heritage List includes 156 properties explicitly recognized for their outstanding biodiversity values, which together represent the world’s major ecosystems.

This report presents insights on both critical water-related ecosystem services and also on the wider ecosystem services from wetlands. The objective is encourage additional policy momentum, business commitment, and investment in the conservation, restoration, and wise use of wetlands.

The book is a synopsis of the last 20 years of groundbreaking CEMEX Conservation Books.

The aim of the present report is to examine the changing context within which the reptile skin trade has existed (“where we came from”), the extent of the current industry and its regulatory strengths and weaknesses (“where we are now”), and what the future can or should bring (“where we go from

Secondo i criteri UICN il 43% degli Efemerotteri, il 40% dei Plecotteri e il 51% dei Tricotteri della Svizzera figurano nella Lista Rossa, il che corrisponde al 47% delle 499 specie dei tre gruppi di insetti acquatici con dati sufficienti; il 15% (71 specie) è inoltre potenzialmente minacciato.

La liste rouge 2011 des characées (Characeae) est la première liste de macroalgues me-nacées publiée en Suisse. Sur les 25 espèces recensées à ce jour sur le territoire helvétique, 23 ont été classées par catégorie selon les critères de menace de l’UICN.

Es ist die Erstausgabe der Roten Liste der gefährdeten Armleuchteralgen (Characeae) in der Schweiz. Darin sind alle bisher in der Schweiz festgestellten Characeenarten mit dem entsprechenden Gefährdungsgrad aufgrund der IUCN-Kriterien aufgeführt.

This Strategy aims to encourage transformational and demonstrable change at the company and sectoral level in how biodiversity is valued and managed by businesses in order to conserve and restore biodiversity and to ensure that biodiversity benefits are shared equitably.

This publication presents a legal and institutional gap analysis of the project area, covering five seamount regions, two of which are inside proposed Benthic Protected Areas (BPAs), Atlantis Bank and Coral Seamount, and three outside BPAs.

Seamounts are topographic rises of the seabed with a limited extent across the summit. There is evidence that seamounts form hotspots of biological activity in the oceans. Why seamounts host abundant populations of fish and other pelagic and aquatic predators is still uncertain.

Cette publication présente l'information sur l'état de conservation des mammifères marins et des tortues marines qui habitent la Méditerranée et la mer Noire.

This report contains the most comprehensive assessment of the status and trends of the world’s invertebrates conducted to date. It introduces the staggering diversity of invertebrates, ranging from microscopic zooplankton to giant squid.
