Species Status Assessment project

 
The Species Status Assessment project assigns conservation status to our flora and fauna using the internationally-approved IUCN Red Data Book criteria and categories.  These reviews are published in a new series entitles Species Status.  Some reviews will include detailed data sheets, giving biological and other information relevant for conserving each species (for example, the Diptera reviews, Species Status numbers 2 and 3), while others will list the new conservation status assigned to each species, with supporting reasons and evidence for these judgements.  The Species Status reviews can be purchased as paper publications or downloaded as electronic files free from here.
