Our goal is to assess the conservation status of the whole flora of New Caledonia by 2020. New Caledonia contains some 3,371 native species of vascular plants, of which 74% are considered endemic. This exceptional floristic diversity is threatened by accelerating development. The Red Listing activities will: (1) bring a valuable tool for local institutions in charge of setting conservation priorities, and (2) allow knowledge improvement by identifying Data ...
We intend to assess the entire New Caledonian flora using the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Through this process, we are generating information on their distribution, habitats, ecology, population trends, threats and ultimately their probability of extinction.
Increase awareness of flora vulnerability in New Caledonia among citizens and decision-makers.
To inform conservation efforts, NCPRLA assesses species for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
