List of near threatened reptiles

As of September 2016, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 329 near threatened reptile species.[1] 6.4% of all evaluated reptile species are listed as near threatened. The IUCN also lists two reptile subspecies as near threatened.

•   Extinct in the wild (EW): 2 species
•   Critically endangered (CR): 196 species
•   Endangered (EN): 382 species
•   Vulnerable (VU): 411 species
•   Near threatened (NT, LR/cd): 329 species
•   Least concern (LC): 2,900 species
•   Data deficient (DD): 910 species

Reptile species (IUCN, 2016-2)

• 5130 extant species have been evaluated
• 4220 of those are fully assessed[lower-alpha 1]
• 3229 are not threatened at present[lower-alpha 2]
• 989 to 1899 are threatened[lower-alpha 3]
• 26 to 43 are extinct or extinct in the wild:
  • 24 extinct (EX) species[lower-alpha 4]

1. excludes data deficient evaluations.
2. NT, LR/cd, LC.
3. Threatened comprises CR, EN and VU. Upper estimate additionally includes DD.
4. Chart omits extinct (EX) species

Near Threatened (NT) species do not currently qualify for Critically Endangered (CR), Endangered (EN) or Vulnerable (VU), but are likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future, or are already close to qualifying.

Of the subpopulations of reptiles evaluated by the IUCN, two species subpopulations have been assessed as near threatened.
