Some species were assessed using an earlier set of criteria. Species assessed using this system have the following instead of near threatened and least concern categories:

Species which were the focus of conservation programmes and may have moved into a higher risk category if that programme was discontinued.

The species does not meet any of the criteria that would categorise it as risking extinction but it is likely to do so in the future.
