List Of Vulnerable Amphibians
As of September 2016, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 670 vulnerable amphibian species. 10% of all evaluated amphibian species are listed as vulnerable. No subpopulations of amphibians have been evaluated by the IUCN. For a species to be assessed as vulnerable to extinction the best available evidence must meet quantitative criteria set by the IUCN designed to reflect "a high risk of extinction in the wild". ''Endangered'' and ''critically endangered'' species also meet the quantitative criteria of ''vulnerable'' species, and are listed separately. See: List of endangered amphibians, List of critically endangered amphibians. Vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered species are collectively referred to as ''threatened species'' by the IUCN. Additionally 1567 amphibian species (24% of those evaluated) are listed as ''data deficient'', meaning there is insufficient information for a full assessment of conservation status. As these specie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bolitoglossa Obscura
''Bolitoglossa'' is a genus of lungless salamanders, also called mushroom-tongued salamanders, tropical climbing salamanders, or web-footed salamanders, in the family Plethodontidae. Their range is between northern Mexico through Central America to Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, northeastern Brazil, and central Bolivia. Neotropical salamanders of the ''Bolitoglossa'' make up the largest genus in the order Caudata, consisting of approximately one-fifth of all known species of salamanders. Adult salamanders range anywhere from 45mm to 200mm in length depending on their specific species. They are notorious for their ability to project their tongue at prey items, as indicated from their name. They are also known for their webbed feet, having significantly more webbing than any other species outside their genus with the exception of the cave-dwelling Mexican bolitoglossine ''Chiropterotriton magnipes''. Although webbed feet are a common characteristic of these salamanders, onl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
