F OREWORDIn 1996, the Office of Natural Resources and EnvironmentalPolicy and Planning (ONEP) organized a meeting with amajor purpose to assess the status of the biological resourcesin Thailand, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians,and fish. The IUCN Red List Categories was used as aguiding document. The initial IUCN List, which provideda set of criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousandsof species and subspecies, was created under the 2.3 : IUCN(1994) version numbering system. Its identification criteriawas later modified and upgraded to the 3.1 : IUCN (2001)version. In 2004, the IUCN released a Red List ofThreatened Species. Which is considered as the world’s mostcomprehensive inventory of the global conservation statusof plant and animal species.ONEP as the National Focal Point to the CBD, found itnecessary to update the inventory and status of threatenedspecies in Thailand. Thus in October 2004, the ThailandRed Data: Vertebrates List and Project was initiated andunderwent a series of data collection, analyses, and meetingsamongst involved experts.ONEP sincerely hopes that this manual will be helpful inthe identification of mammals, reptiles and amphibians inThailand as well as provide basic information for researchuse in development projects, and related policy developmentthat would all lead to sustainable biological management.Furthermore, ONEP had also published the books titled“Thailand Red Data: Birds” and “Thailand Red Data:Fishes”, which will be helpful in the same way.ONEP would also like to thanks all experts and academicsinvolved who have helped in the creation of this Red List.Lastly, ONEP would like to pay gratitude to the UnitedNations Development Programme (UNDP) for theirfinancial support in publishing this manual.

ABSTRACTThailand is a country with a wide range of biologicaldiversity, and high in forest resources and wildlife.Concluding from the status study of mammals, reptiles andamphibians, there are 13 orders, 42 families, 147 genera,and 302 species of mammals; 3 orders, 23 families, 139genera, and at least 350 species (366 forms) of reptiles; 3orders, 8 families, 40 genera, and 137 species (138 forms)of amphibians. However new records of these three groupsof animals are continuously being reported.The above three groups of animals have been categorizedand listed as either extinct, extinct in the wild, criticallyendangered, endangered, vulnerable, near threatened, leastconcern, data deficient or endemic. Out of 159 species ofmammals classified, one is an extinct species, theSchomburgk’s Deer (Cervus schomburgki). This deer hasbeen extinct from Thailand and the world for over 70 years.In the past, the Schomburgk’s Deer was prevalent in thecentral plains of Thailand, but presently only antler remainsare found. There are also 4 species that are extinct in thewild, 12 critically endangered, 35 endangered, 69vulnerable, 15 near threatened, 10 species of least concern,13 with deficient data, and 5 endemic.A total of 350 species (366 forms) of reptiles have beenclassified, all of which have been found and reported inThailand. The false gavial (Tomistoma schlegelii) is listedas extinct in the wild due to intense hunting, and since itseggs require a long incubation period, they are at greaterrisk to harm from various predators. Presently there is noexisting record of false gavials found in the wild. Withinthe remaining reptile species, eleven are classified ascritically endangered, 5 (6 forms) as endangered, 16 asvulnerable, 48 (50 forms) as near threatened, 183 (190forms) as least concern, 89 (92 forms) as data deficient,and 47 species (49 forms) as endemic. It is note that certainsubspecies of the same species are categorized separately.There are 137 species (138 forms) of amphibians that havebeen categorized, all of which have been found and reportedin Thailand, including 5 species that are vulnerable, 33species that are near threatened, 64 species (65 forms) thatare of least concern, 35 species that are deficient in dataand finally, 7 species are endemic.
