|---|---|---|---|
| Garnett and Crowley 2000 | By kingdom | Critically Endangered |
5A1a - A taxon is Critically Endangered when it is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 80% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on direct observation. 5A1d - A taxon is Critically Endangered when it is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 80% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on actual or potential levels of exploitation. 3D - A taxon is Endangered when it is not Critically Endangered but is facing an very high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, where the population is estimated to number less than 250 mature individuals. |
| IUCN Red Data List 1994 | By kingdom | Vulnerable |
2A1a - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 20% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on direct observation. 2A1d - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 20% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on actual or potential levels of exploitation. |
| IUCN Red List 2000 | By kingdom | Vulnerable |
2A1d - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 20% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on actual or potential levels of exploitation. 2A1b - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term future, based on an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of at least 20% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on an index of abundance appropriate for the taxon. 2A2b - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, based on a reduction of at least 20%, projected or suspected to be met within the next 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on an index of abundance appropriate for the taxon. 2A2d - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, based on a reduction of at least 20%, projected or suspected to be met within the next 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, based on actual or potential levels of exploitation. |
