Measuring trends in extinction risk: a review of two decades of development and application of the Red List Index Open
The Red List Index (RLI) is an indicator of the average extinction risk of groups of species and reflects trends in this through time. It is calculated from the number of species in each category on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species,…

The utility of the Living Planet Index as a policy tool and for measuring nature recovery Open
The Living Planet Index (LPI) is a leading global biodiversity indicator based on vertebrate population time series. Since it was first developed over 25 years ago, the LPI has been widely used to indicate trends in biodiversity globally, …

Disproportionate regulation of wildlife trade Open
An increasing number of countries in the Global North have enacted, or are considering, import bans on hunting trophies to protect wildlife. We interrogate arguments used to characterize trophy hunting using data from the Convention on Int…

Evaluating key evidence and formulating regulatory alternatives regarding the <span>UK</span> 's Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill Open
Public policy addressing biodiversity loss is most likely to be effective when it is informed by appropriate evidence and considers potential unintended consequences. We evaluate key evidence relating to the Hunting Trophies (Import Prohib…

Understanding and achieving species elements in the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework Open
The Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework was adopted in December 2022 by the parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity. The framework states outcomes for species to be achieved by 2050 in goal A and establishes a range of…

A trait-based metric to prioritise the conservation of functionally irreplaceable species at risk of extinction Open
Robust species-level methods for quantifying ecological differences have yet to be incorporated into conservation strategies. Here, we present a conservation prioritisation approach that integrates species trait data and extinction risk to…

The positive impact of conservation action Open
Governments recently adopted new global targets to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity. It is therefore crucial to understand the outcomes of conservation actions. We conducted a global meta-analysis of 186 studies (including 665 tri…

Global conservation status of the jawed vertebrate Tree of Life Open
Human-driven extinction threatens entire lineages across the Tree of Life. Here we assess the conservation status of jawed vertebrate evolutionary history, using three policy-relevant approaches. First, we calculate an index of threat to o…

Author Correction: Identifying species likely threatened by international trade on the IUCN Red List can inform CITES trade measures Open
Overexploitation is a major threat to biodiversity and international trade in many species is regulated through the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).However, there is no established me…

Conserving avian evolutionary history can effectively safeguard future benefits for people Open
Phylogenetic diversity (PD)—the evolutionary history of a set of species—is conceptually linked to the maintenance of yet-to-be-discovered benefits from biodiversity or “option value.” We used global phylogenetic and utilization data for b…
