	2006 IUCN Red List – Frequently Asked Questions
		While the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species is designed to combine both animal and plant assessments in one list, including all species assessed for the World List of Threatened Trees, many of the plant taxa previously assessed for the 1997 IUCN Red List of Threatened Plants are not included on this Red List.
		In such cases, the Red List assessments are not directly comparable because although the taxon may have the same name, the circumscription of the taxon may be different.
		The Red List is being developed to identify reasons for change in status for all species on the list, and at some time in the future it should be possible to highlight genuine changes only.

	Birds on Spain's Islands (Archipelagos) and Introduced Species
		The main two Spanish archipelagos are the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea off the NE coast and the Canary Islands in the Atlantic off W Morocco.
		That said, the isolation of both island groups has lead to the evolution of several bird species and forms unknown elsewhere, with Balearic Shearwater and Balearic Warbler, both under serious threat being the only two species generally considered as endemic to 'peninsular Spain'.
		The Canaries, given their affinity with other Macronesian (E Atlantic) islands and great differences in habitat between the desertic eastern, and much more humid and forested central and western islands, show a much higher level of endemism and similarity to NW African species.
