IUCN Red List Categories: EX - Extinct, EW - Extinct in the Wild, CR - Critically Endangered (includes CR(PE) and CR(PEW)), EN - Endangered, VU - Vulnerable, LR/cd - Lower Risk/conservation dependent, NT - Near
Threatened (includes LR/nt - Lower Risk/near threatened), DD - Data Deficient, LC - Least Concern (includes LR/lc - Lower Risk, least concern).

* Plants: Anthocerotopsida (hornworts); Bryopsida, Sphagnopsida and Takakiopsida (true mosses); Charophyaceae, Chlorophyceae and Ulvophyceae (green algae); Cycadopsida (cycads); Florideophyceae (red algae);
Ginkgoopsida (ginkgo); Gnetopsida (gnetums); Jungermanniopsida and Marchantiopsida (liverworts); Liliopsida (monocotyledons); Lycopodiopsida (club mosses and spike mosses); Magnoliopsida (dicotyledons);
Polypodiopsida (ferns, horsetails & quillworts); Pinopsida (conifers).

** CR(PE) & CR(PEW): The tags 'Possibly Extinct' and 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' have been developed to identify CR species that are likely already extinct (or extinct in the wild), but require more investigation to confirm
this. NOTE that these are not IUCN Red List Categories; they are tags that can be attached to the CR category to highlight those taxa that are possibly extinct. They are included in the above table to indicate a plausible
upper estimate for number of recently extinct species on The IUCN Red List.
