Red List of the Vascular Plants of Luxembourg 2025

Description

The present Red List is the second edition of the Red List of Vascular Plants of Luxembourg applying IUCN Red List categories at the national level. The checklist serving as the backbone of the Red List contains 1,423 native and established alien taxa. No threat category was assigned to the extant 172 Established Aliens (EA) and the 79 Data Deficient (DD) taxa. Out of the remaining 1,172 taxa for which a threat category was assigned, 8.9 % were assessed as Regionally Extinct (RE), 8.4 % as Critically Endangered (CR), 13.8 % as Endangered (EN), 13.0 % as Vulnerable (VU) and 9.9 % as Near Threatened (NT). In comparison to the previous Red List of Vascular Plants published in 2005 there was an increase of threatened taxa (CR + EN + VU) in Luxembourg from 30.4 % to 35.2 %.
