Scardinius scardafa is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Italy. Its natural habitats are rivers and freshwater lakes.
Herring are various species of forage fish, belonging to the order Clupeiformes.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is an inventory of the global conservation status and extinction risk of biological species. A series of Regional Red Lists, which assess the risk of extinction to species within a political management unit, are also produced by countries and organizations.
Buteo is a genus of medium to fairly large, wide-ranging raptors with a robust body and broad wings. In the Old World, members of this genus are called "buzzards", but "hawk" is used in the New World. As both terms are ambiguous, buteo is sometimes used instead, for example, by the Peregrine Fund.
The common rudd is a bentho-pelagic freshwater fish, widely spread in Europe and central Asia, around the basins of the North, Baltic, Black, Caspian and Aral seas.
The roach, or rutilus roach, also known as the common roach, is a fresh- and brackish-water fish of the family Cyprinidae, native to most of Europe and western Asia. Fish called roach can be any species of the genera Rutilus, Leucos and Hesperoleucus, depending on locality. The plural of the term is also roach.
The golden shiner is a cyprinid fish native to eastern North America. It is the sole member of its genus. Much used as a bait fish, it is probably the most widely pond-cultured fish in the United States. It can be found in Quebec, and its French name is "Mené jaune" or "Chatte de l'Est".
An IUCN Red List critically endangered species is one that has been categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild. As of December 2023, of the 157,190 species currently on the IUCN Red List, 9,760 of those are listed as critically endangered, with 1,302 being possibly extinct and 67 possibly extinct in the wild.
Scardinius acarnanicus is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Greece, in the basin of the Acheloos River and in adjacent lakes. Its natural habitats are intermittent rivers and freshwater lakes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Scardinius is a genus of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae commonly called rudds. Locally, the name "rudd" without any further qualifiers is also used for individual species, particularly the common rudd. The rudd can be distinguished from the very similar roach by way of the rudd's upturned mouth, allowing it to pick food items such as aquatic insects from the surface of the water with minimal disturbance.
Scardinius elmaliensis is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Turkey. Its natural habitats are rivers and freshwater lakes.
Scardinius graecus, also called the Greek rudd or Yliki rudd, is a species of cyprinid fish, that is endemic to a single lake, Lake Yliki, in Greece. The other known population, in Lake Paralimni, disappeared after the lake had been drained. This fish is classified as a Vulnerable species. Populations have been introduced to the artificial reservoirs Lake Marathon and Lake Beletsi to the north of Athens.
Scardinius racovitzai is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Romania.
The flat-headed shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Uganda. The flat-headed shrew is listed as Data Deficient on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
An endangered species is a species that is very likely to become extinct in the near future, either worldwide or in a particular political jurisdiction. Endangered species may be at risk due to factors such as habitat loss, poaching, invasive species, and climate change. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List lists the global conservation status of many species, and various other agencies assess the status of species within particular areas. Many nations have laws that protect conservation-reliant species which, for example, forbid hunting, restrict land development, or create protected areas. Some endangered species are the target of extensive conservation efforts such as captive breeding and habitat restoration.
Lake Yliki is a large natural lake of Boeotia, central Greece. Situated 8 km north of Thebes at 78 m elevation, it has been an important source of drinking water for the Athens agglomeration since 1958. It is surrounded by low mountains, which separate it from the drained Lake Copais.
Scardinius dergle is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. Its natural habitats are rivers and freshwater lakes.
Scardinius hesperidicus is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is native to Po and Adriatic drainages east of the Po in Italy, San Marino, and Switzerland, and has been introduced into other area watersheds, especially in Italy. Its natural habitats are rivers and freshwater lakes.
Scardinius knezevici is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Lakes Ohrid and Skadar in Albania, Macedonia, and Montenegro.
Scardinius plotizza is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. Its natural habitats are rivers and freshwater lakes.
