Unlike the US Fish and Wildlife Endangered Species List, the Blue List was made to identify patterns of population losses for regional bird populations before they could be listed as endangered. [2] Every decade after its release, the list is revisited and revised based on regional editors and species get "nominated" to be added to the list.
Endangered (EN) species are considered to be facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild. In September 2016, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) listed 3654 endangered plant species. [1] Of all evaluated plant species, 17% are listed as endangered. The IUCN also lists 99 subspecies and 101 varieties as endangered.
[1] 30% of all evaluated plant species are listed as least concern. The IUCN also lists 131 subspecies and 118 varieties as least concern. No subpopulations of plants have been evaluated by the IUCN. This is a complete list of least concern plant species, subspecies and varieties evaluated by the IUCN.
As of July 2021, the IUCN lists 14,033 animal species and 6,635 plant species as least concern. [1] No least concern assessments have been made for taxa of other kingdoms.

See: List of endangered plants, List of critically endangered plants. Vulnerable, Endangered, and Critically Endangered species are collectively referred to as threatened species by the IUCN. Additionally 1674 plant species (7.6% of those evaluated) are listed as Data Deficient, meaning there is insufficient information for a full
The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature is the best known worldwide conservation status listing and ranking system. . Species are classified by the IUCN Red List into nine groups set through criteria such as rate of decline, population size, area of geographic distribution, and degree of population and distribution fragmenta
