Red data books are now an established method of presenting factual information abut the status of the rarest and most threatened animals and plants. Such books have now been produced internationally and nationally for a large number of biological groups. They play an important role in defining which species are most in need of special conservation measures. HBRC is currently compiling a Red Data book for Hertfordshire together with The Hertfordshire Natural History Society.It is intended to incorporate details of all native or long-established species that are known to be rare or under threat in the County.
