Managing the habitat of the Endangered Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket

Project Details

NameManaging the habitat of the Endangered Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket
DescriptionThe national Conservation Action Plan for the Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket (Zeuneriana marmorata) for Italy was written in 2017 in collaboration between the IUCN SSC Grasshopper Specialist Group, the IUCN SSC Invertebrate Conservation Committee, the Associazione Studi Ornitologici e Ricerche Ecologiche del Friuli Venezia Giulia (ASTORE), the Stazione Biologica della Cona - Riserva Naturale Regionale Foce dell'Isonzo and Rogos Sc. Coop. Implementation started in 2018. In the nature reserve Foce dell'Isonzo, important habitats for the Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket were excluded from grazing by building a fence. A potentially suitable habitat was identified in 2020 and translocation was carried out in 2021. All Italian populations were monitored since 2018 and four new populations were discovered near Venice and along the Fiume Stella. To improve the implementation of more conservation actions, we need to employ one project coordinator.

Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions

Coming soon

This stacked bar chart represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
