List of endangered amphibians

As of September 2021, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 1085 endangered amphibian species.

For a species to be considered endangered by the IUCN it must meet certain quantitative criteria which are designed to classify taxa facing "a very high risk of extinction".

Additionally 1193 amphibian species (16% of those evaluated) are listed as data deficient, meaning there is insufficient information for a full assessment of conservation status.

As these species typically have small distributions and/or populations, they are intrinsically likely to be threatened, according to the IUCN.

[2] While the category of data deficient indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made for the taxa, the IUCN notes that it may be appropriate to give them "the same degree of attention as threatened taxa, at least until their status can be assessed".
