Home›Fish›Conservation Status›Data DeficientBrowse ByData DeficientConservation status groups species by how close each one is to extinction, using the category scale most conservation scientists rely on, running from least concern through near threatened, vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered, to extinct in the wild or extinct. Assessments come from bodies such as the IUCN Red List and are re-checked as a species population changes. A species with no current assessment recorded here is not shown as any of these categories.FactsData DeficientSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonReproductive ModeWell-attestedOviparous (Egg-Laying) 1Data DeficientFilter Results12 entriesCommon GroupAllAncient And Relict Fish (Coelacanth, Lungfish) (1)Catfish (Siluriformes) (1)Cichlids, Anemonefish And Damselfish (1)Eels (Anguilliformes) (2)Flatfish (Pleuronectiformes) (1)Other Bony Fish (1)Perch-Like Fishes (Perciformes) (1)Sharks, Rays And Chimaeras (4)Everyday GroupAllAncient And Relict Fish (Coelacanth, Lungfish) (1)Catfish (Siluriformes) (1)Cichlids, Anemonefish And Damselfish (1)Eels (Anguilliformes) (2)Flatfish (Pleuronectiformes) (1)Other Bony Fish (1)Perch-Like Fishes (Perciformes) (1)Sharks, Rays And Chimaeras (4)HabitatAllAbyssal Zone (1)Coral Reef (2)Lake (1)Marine (7)River (1)Wetlands (1)Where It LivesAllAlbania (1)Algeria (1)Angola (1)Australia (2)Belgium (3)Benin (1)Bosnia and Herzegovina (1)Brazil (3)Bulgaria (1)Cabo Verde (1)Cameroon (1)Canada (2)Chile (1)China (2)Colombia (3)Costa Rica (1)Cote d'Ivoire (1)Croatia (1)Cyprus (1)Democratic Republic of the Congo (1)Denmark (3)Egypt (1)El Salvador (1)Equatorial Guinea (1)France (3)Gabon (1)Gambia (1)Georgia (1)Germany (1)Ghana (1)Greece (2)Guatemala (1)Guinea (1)Guinea-Bissau (1)Honduras (1)Indonesia (1)Iran (1)Ireland (2)Israel (3)Italy (2)Japan (2)Kenya (2)Lebanon (1)Liberia (1)Libya (1)Madagascar (2)Malaysia (1)Mauritania (1)Mexico (4)Montenegro (1)Morocco (1)Mozambique (2)Namibia (1)Netherlands (2)New Zealand (2)Nicaragua (1)Niger (1)Nigeria (1)North Korea (1)Norway (4)Panama (1)Paraguay (1)Peru (1)Philippines (1)Poland (1)Portugal (1)Republic of the Congo (1)Romania (1)Russia (1)Senegal (1)Sierra Leone (1)Slovenia (1)South Africa (2)South America (1)South Korea (1)Spain (2)Sweden (4)Syria (2)Tanzania (1)The Atlantic Ocean (1)Togo (1)United Kingdom (2)United States (1)Venezuela (1)Western Sahara (1)DietAllCarnivore (9)Omnivore (1)Piscivore (1)System (Realm)AllFreshwater (3)Marine (9)Marine and Freshwater (1)Living or ExtinctAllYes (12)Relationship to PeopleAllFarmed or Commercially Raised (1)Hunted or Fished (7)Invasive or Introduced Species (1)Kept as Pets (3)CITES AppendixAllAppendix II (1)Not Listed (10)NatureServe RankAllG5 Secure (2)GNR Unranked (4)EcosystemAllAmazon Varzea Forest (1)Coral Reef Systems (1)Deep Sea (2)Galapagos (1)Great Barrier Reef (1)Gulf of California (2)TaxonomyAllAnguilliformes (1)Chondrichthyes (4)Chordata (1)Cichlidae (1)Myxini (1)Osteoglossiformes (1)Perciformes (2)Pleuronectiformes (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 12ArapaimaData DeficientAtlantic WolffishData DeficientCommon soleData DeficientConvict cichlidData DeficientGulf torpedoData DeficientJohn DoryData DeficientMoray EelData DeficientNurse SharkData DeficientPacific HagfishData DeficientPrickly sharkData DeficientPsednos harteliData DeficientStingrayData DeficientSources1.
