IUCN Red List Categories

IUCN Red List Categories are nine in number. The base of each category in this IUCN Red List Classification is the data available on the species. Moreover, the classification of any species typically depends on their population size, reproductive rates, distribution, and the severity of threats they face.

List of Categories

There are Nine categories in IUCN Red List Classification as follows:

Non Threatened IUCN Red List Categories

1 – Not Envaulted Species – These are not evaluated for any category of IUCN Red List Classification

2 – Data Deficient Species – These are the species that are studied well. Besides this, their biological information is also available. But, data about their distribution and population is not sufficient. So they need more research for IUCN Red List Classification. However, these species are not in the category of threat. Number of these species is 21290. Savage’s Earth Snake, Saudi Fringe-fingered Lizard, and Alcathoe Whiskered Bat are examples of species of this category.

3 – Least Concern Species – Data about these species shows no risk of extinction. However, these are at the lowest level of conservation and have a widespread and abundant population. Their number is 81577. Black Emo Skink, Greater Blind Mole Rat, Keeled Rat Snake, and Small-banded Kukri Snake are examples.   

4 – Near Threatened Species – Near Threatened species are those that are close to qualifying for a threatened category of IUCN. The habitat of these species is disappearing but on the other hand, they have a healthy population. The number in this category is 9170. Many species of Island Fox, Bush Dog, European Bison, Tufted Deer, Mona Monkey, Short-eared Dog, Marbled Cat, Siberian Ibex, Steller Sea Lion, Brown Hyaena, Markhor, and different turtles fall into this category.
