*within the family Hippopotamidae there exist two distinct species: Hippopotamus amphibus and Hexaphotodon liberiensis, the former is now considered vulnerable to extinction, the latter is considered endangered, while subspecies H. l. heslopi is considered critically endangered by the IUCN, but believed to already to extinct since there have been no confirmed sighting reports for decades.

*IUCN red list status is critically endangered. Prior to the 1987 publication of "One Or More Extinctions from Sulawesi, Indonesia?"(2) the duck billed buntingi, Andrianichthys kruyti, was not mentioned in the Red Date books compiled by the Conservation Monitoring Centre of IUCN.

1. Max Wilhelm Car Weber did, in fact, "discover" the Duck billed buntingi, on his 1913 Siboga expedition to Indonesia. In other words, he brought knowledge of this fish species to the zoologists and taxonomists of Europe and other developed regions of the earth.

*The Smithsonian Institute's Animal places this species within the family Turdidae, as it was traditionally classified, but this tradition is also what lead the British poets to assume the female was the sex which sang these beautiful songs. The female nightingale is incapable of singing.

 

 

 

Tapiridae*

*There exist four distinct species of Tapirs: the Lowland (South American, or Brazilian) tapir: Tapirus terrestris, the Mountain tapir: T. Pinchaque, Baird's tapir: T. bairdii, and the only "Old World" tapir, the Malayan tapir: T. indicus. The foremost species is listed as vulnerable in the IUCN Red Book, and the latter three are listed as endangered.

*Until recently there was thought to be only one extant representative of the order Rhynchocephalia, the Sphenodon punctatus. However, genetic analysis has shown that a group of tuataras on North Brother Island form a distinct species, now known as S. guentheri. But, the number of times the species is split will not affect their prevalency, which, after being pushed to extinction on the main island due to the introduction of predators, especially the rat, is currently contained to a few small islands of New Zealand. The IUCN Red List lists S. guntheri's conservation status as vulnerable.
