Graphic diagram for the IUCN Red List categories.

World Conservation Union (IUCN) Red List categories

Lower risk categories
2001 Categories & Criteria
(version 3.1)
Description 1994 Categories & Criteria
(version 2.3)
Image:Status iucn3.1 LC.svg Least Concern (LC or LR/lc), lowest risk. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category. Image:Status iucn2.3 LC.svg
Image:Status iucn3.1 NT.svg Near Threatened (NT or LR/nt), is close to qualifying for or is likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future. Image:Status iucn2.3 NT.svg
No longer a Red List category Conservation Dependent (LR/cd), the focus of a continuing taxon-specific or habitat-specific conservation programme targeted towards the taxon in question, the cessation of which would result in the taxon qualifying for one of the threatened categories below within a period of five years.

(version 3.1)
Description 1994 Categories & Criteria
(version 2.3)

Image:Status none DD.svg Data Deficient (DD), inadequate information to make a direct, or indirect, assessment of its risk of extinction. Image:Status none DD.svg
Not Evaluated (NE), not yet been evaluated against the criteria.
Image:Status iucn3.1 PE.svg Possibly Extinct (PE), a category given by BirdLife International. A subcategory of CR. Image:Status iucn2.3 PE.svg
Image:Status iucn3.1 PEW.svg Possibly Extinct in the Wild (PEW), A term used within the IUCN Red List. A subcategory of CR. Image:Status iucn2.3 PEW.svg

[edit] How to translate into your language

Image:Status iucn3.1 VU.svg
Image:Status iucn3.1 VU.svg
Image:Status iucn3.1 VU it.svg
Image:Status iucn3.1 VU it.svg

Translating the images is easy:

  • Save the svg images to disk
  • Open with Inkscape
  • Edit the text
  • Save as plain svg
  • (For advanced users: you may be able to avoid using inkscape, and simply edit the svg file in a text editor)
  • Add your 2-letter language code to the filename (see example, right)
  • Upload again to Commons

Also

  • Make a new Pengo IUCN/language template. E.g. {{Pengo IUCN/cs}} for Czech.i[[0-oip
