Development of the database on the threatened biodiversity in Central Asia with examples of migratory vertebrates Elena A. Kreuzberg, Elena A. Bykova, Eleanor J. Milner-Gulland, Stephen Ling

PROJECT Correlates of Extinction Risk for Central Asian Biodiversity

Project participants: Imperial College London, UK Institute of Zoology, UZ IUCN - World Conservation Union, CH Institute of Zoology, KZ Swedish Threatened Species Unit, SE Institute of Deserts, TM Institute of Zoology and Parasitology, TJ Institute of Botany, KZ

Objectives To integrate the Red Listing system used by the Central Asian countries into the global framework IUCN-SSC. To develop a system for assessing the threat of extinction of Central Asian species at 3 levels: national, regional and global.

Objectives To use archive data to correlates extinctions of the listed species at the national, regional and global scales. To product of GIS for extinction risk. To initiate and support a collaborative network of CA scientists.

The main ecosystems of CA

Threatened Species Database: 1.Country 2.Taxonomy 3.Scientific name, Russian name, English name 4. Categories and criteria Red List IUCN-SSC 5. National threatened status 6.Life-history characteristics: body mass, generation time, fecundity

Threatened Species Database: 7. Environment: landscape zone, biotope, trophic resources, specific environment requirements) 8.Range: (sub)populations, distribution, range area, degree of fragmentation, dispersal distances, contiguous 9. Number: current number, (sub)population trend, carrying capacity

Threatened Species Database: 8.Threats: time, degree, probability, diapason 9. Conservation measures: accepted measure, necessary measure 10. References 12.Contact details of expert: name, institution, post address, phone, fax,
