| Description | The first listing of the conservation status of lichens indigenous to the New Zealand Botanical Region (excluding Macquarie Island) is presented. The list comprises 1799 formally accepted taxa placed in the following categories: 'Threatened', 11 taxa (comprising 4 taxa Nationally Critical, 4 Nationally Endangered, 3 Nationally Vulnerable); 'At Risk', 176 taxa (comprising 173 Naturally Uncommon and 4 Declining taxa); and 975 'Data Deficient' taxa. A further 636 taxa were considered 'Not Threatened'. A further five lichens are listed as 'Taxonomically Indeterminate', being lichens which may warrant further conservation attention once their taxonomic status is clarified. A concordance of lichen names is provided. A brief analysis of the patterns of threat and rarity exhibited by New Zealand lichens listed is also presented. |
