The influence of spatial scales on Red List composition: Forest species in Fennoscandia [PDF]
National Red Lists are widely used prioritizing tools for nature conservation. However, status and trends of species vary with scale, and accounting for a larger spatial scale may provide complementary perspectives for nature conservation. We investigate

Red-listed alpha diversity and environmental factors.
GLMM results for red-listed species. For the categorical predictors “Forest type” and “Region”, Woodland Key Habitat (WKH) and Jönköping are the respective reference levels.

Red List assessment of widespread and long-lived species [PDF]
AbstractThe use of criterion A of the IUCN Red List to categorize species as threatened that have undergone recent decline can lead to the listing of relatively common and widespread species. Loss of habitat through deforestation is a common cause of decline throughout much of the world but is often not incorporated into assessments because of ...

The IUCN Red List of Ecosystems: motivations, challenges, and applications [PDF]
In response to growing demand for ecosystem-level risk assessment in biodiversity conservation, and rapid proliferation of locally tailored protocols, the IUCN recently endorsed new Red List criteria as a global standard for ecosystem risk assessment ...

Epiphyte metapopulation dynamics are explained by species traits, connectivity, and patch dynamics [PDF]
The colonization-extinction dynamics of many species are affected by the dynamics of their patches. For increasing our understanding of the metapopulation dynamics of sessile species confined to dynamic patches, we fitted a Bayesian incidence function ...

Red List assessment of nine Aegilops species in Armenia [PDF]
The aims of this study are to determine the geographical and ecological distribution of nine Aegilops species in Republic of Armenia and to make an assessment of their IUCN Red List status, using the IUCN Red list categories and criteria, in order to develop an in situ conservation strategy for wild relatives of wheat in Armenia.

Red Listing: Deciding Which Species are at Risk [PDF]
Abstract Darwin explained how species began. Today we may be witnessing the sixth great extinction. Conservationists rely on the so-called “red list” of most-threatened species, but the red list has been criticised as arbitrary, subjective and based on inadequate data. David Keith looks at the science and the statistics of the red list.
