Over 1,000 Fungal Species Now Assessed on the IUCN Red List
We have now completed assessments for more than 1,000 fungal species. This is the first time fungi have been represented at this scale on the Red List, and it provides a more solid foundation for understanding their conservation status globally.
Thanks to all who have contributed with data and expertise. Your work has been essential in making these assessments possible and in strengthening the knowledge base for fungal conservation.
