CHECKLIST OF ENDANGERED AND THREATENED ANIMALS AND PLANTS OF ILLINOIS Illinois Endangered Species Protection Board
The Board revises the list of protected species at least once every five years and completed its most recent revisions in 2009. The following list reflects those 2009 and subsequent 2010 revisions: This booklet contains a list of all species which have been designated as endangered or threatened by the Illinois Endangered Species Protection Board. Species are listed alphabetically by scientific name. Species listed at the Federal level are indicated by asterisks - ** = Federally Endangered * = Federally Threatened CRITERIA FOR STATE LISTING A species shall be included on the official list of endangered and threatened species when one or more of the following criteria exists: 1) Species included in the Federal list of Endangered or Threatened Species, 2) Species proposed for Federal Endangered or Threatened Species which occur in Illinois, 3) Species which formerly were widespread in Illinois but have been nearly extirpated from the State due to habitat destruction, collecting, or other pressures resulting from the development of Illinois, 4) Species which exhibit very restricted geographic ranges of which Illinois is a part, 5) Species which exhibit restricted habitats or low populations in Illinois, or 6) Species which are significant disjuncts in Illinois i.e., the Illinois population is far removed from the rest of the species' range. DEFINITIONS: FEDERALLY ENDANGERED SPECIES - Any species which is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. FEDERALLY THREATENED SPECIES - Any species which is likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range. STATE ENDANGERED SPECIES - Any species which is in danger of extinction as a breeding species in Illinois. STATE THREATENED SPECIES - Any breeding species which is likely to become a state endangered species within the foreseeable future in Illinois.
