Macoma calcarea (VU)
Observations of Macoma calcarea were collected from the Baltic Sea area for HELCOM Red List species list.
The HELCOM Red List of Baltic Sea species in danger of becoming extinct (2013) is the first threat assessment for Baltic Sea species that covers all marine mammals, fish, birds, macrophytes (aquatic plants), and benthic invertebrates, and follows the Red List criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Almost 2800 species were considered in the Red List assessment and about 1750 were evaluated according to the IUCN Red List criteria.
Macoma calcarea has been placed to the Red List category of Vulnerable (VU) species.
Dataset for download contains spatial grid of the Baltic Sea. Distribution of the species can be found in corresponding name column. Values are coded:
1 - Present before year 2000 or in 2000,
2 - Present after year 2000,
3 - Present both before and after year 2000.
