Distributed across Norway and Sweden. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
gorilla
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 4 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Cameroon, Congo (Republic), Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
Entoloma querquedula is an agaric fungus in the family Entolomataceae, assessed as Near Threatened (NT). It is found in nutrient-poor, unfertilised grassland and mire habitats that have declined due to agricultural intensification and drainage. Its near-threatened status reflects sensitivity to grassland management changes.
