Home›Fish›Conservation Status›Near ThreatenedBrowse ByNear ThreatenedConservation 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.FactsNear ThreatenedSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonReproductive ModeWell-attestedOviparous (Egg-Laying) 1Near ThreatenedFilter Results10 entriesCommon GroupAllCichlids, Anemonefish And Damselfish (1)Flatfish (Pleuronectiformes) (1)Other Bony Fish (2)Perch-Like Fishes (Perciformes) (1)Salmon And Trout (Salmoniformes) (1)Sharks, Rays And Chimaeras (4)Everyday GroupAllCichlids, Anemonefish And Damselfish (1)Flatfish (Pleuronectiformes) (1)Other Bony Fish (2)Perch-Like Fishes (Perciformes) (1)Salmon And Trout (Salmoniformes) (1)Sharks, Rays And Chimaeras (4)HabitatAllCoral Reef (3)Freshwater (1)Lake (1)Mangrove Forest (1)Marine (4)Open Ocean (1)Seagrass Meadow (1)Where It LivesAllAlbania (1)Algeria (1)Angola (1)Antigua and Barbuda (1)Argentina (2)Australia (2)Austria (1)Bahamas (3)Bangladesh (1)Barbados (2)Belarus (1)Belgium (5)Belize (2)Benin (1)Brazil (5)Bulgaria (2)Cabo Verde (1)Canada (3)Chile (5)China (3)Colombia (4)Comoros (2)Costa Rica (1)Cote d'Ivoire (1)Cuba (1)Cyprus (2)Czechia (1)Democratic Republic of the Congo (1)Denmark (5)Djibouti (2)Dominica (1)Dominican Republic (1)Ecuador (1)Egypt (1)Eritrea (3)Estonia (1)Federated States of Micronesia (1)Fiji (1)Finland (1)France (3)Gabon (1)Georgia (1)Germany (2)Ghana (1)Greece (3)Grenada (2)Haiti (1)Honduras (1)India (1)Indonesia (2)Israel (1)Jamaica (1)Japan (1)Kenya (2)Madagascar (3)Mauritius (2)Mexico (3)Mozambique (2)New Zealand (2)Nicaragua (1)North America (1)Norway (4)Philippines (1)Portugal (1)Republic of the Congo (1)Saint Lucia (1)Seychelles (2)South Africa (3)Spain (4)Suriname (1)Sweden (2)Switzerland (1)Tanzania (2)Trinidad and Tobago (1)Ukraine (1)United Arab Emirates (1)United Kingdom (3)United States (1)Venezuela (3)Western Sahara (1)DietAllCarnivore (8)Herbivore (1)System (Realm)AllFreshwater (1)Marine (8)Marine and Freshwater (1)Living or ExtinctAllYes (10)Relationship to PeopleAllFarmed or Commercially Raised (1)Hunted or Fished (6)Kept as Pets (3)Used in Traditional Medicine (1)CITES AppendixAllAppendix II (3)Not Listed (8)NatureServe RankAllG4 Apparently Secure (1)G5 Secure (4)EcosystemAllCoral Reef Systems (3)Great Lakes (1)Lake Tanganyika (1)Sargasso Sea (1)Svalbard (1)TaxonomyAllChiloscyllium (2)Chondrichthyes (1)Chordata (1)Cichlidae (1)Perciformes (1)Pleuronectiformes (1)Salmo (1)Syngnathiformes (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 10Atlantic HalibutNear ThreatenedAtlantic SalmonNear ThreatenedBlue SharkNear ThreatenedBrownbanded bamboo sharkNear ThreatenedLong-snouted SeahorseNear ThreatenedSlender SeahorseNear ThreatenedSwordfishNear ThreatenedTiger SharkNear ThreatenedTropheus mooriiNear ThreatenedWhitespotted bamboo sharkNear ThreatenedSources1.
