Threatened species in Switzerland : Red List synthesis report, status 2010

Red Lists are recognised scientific inventories which indicate the extinction risk of species. This report compiles and analyses all of the data from the existing Swiss Red Lists of threatened plants, animals and fungi. A number of specific analyses provide new insights into the status and spatial distribution of threatened species as well as into the nature of the threats they are affected by. Red List projects are coordinated by the Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN).
