Global IUCN Red List assessments

The IUCN Red List uses a well-established, quantitative protocol that is universally applicable to all species (marine or terrestrial, plant or animal). Using this protocol, volunteer experts  — including members of IUCN SSC Specialist Groups — work with IUCN staff and other experts to assess global populations. Their assessments serve as a spur to conservation action for threatened species.

As an IUCN Red List Authority, we ensure that all species within our jurisdiction (all fishes in the order Syngnathiformes) are correctly assessed against the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria at least once every ten years and, if possible, every five years.

Below you’ll find a comprehensive list of the global conservation assessments of our species. (Clicking on the year will take you to the IUCN Red List Assessment.)
