Synopsis The Singapore Red Data Book, first published in 1994, is an indispensable source of reference for conservation plans and efforts. It is also an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and anyone with an interest to better understand and appreciate Singapore’s biodiversity.

This third edition has been revised to be relevant and authoritative with an unprecedented number of expert contributors, the inclusion of new taxa, and increased breadth and depth of coverage of many of the existing taxa. Many new and vibrant colour images of species covered in this book are presented, some for the first time, to strengthen its appeal and to make it more
accessible to the public.

With growing interest in how climate change affects biodiversity and the well-being of people, there is increasing worldwide concern for the climate crisis and nature. It is hoped that this book will galvanise more people to work together for a liveable planet, and play key roles in transforming Singapore into a City in Nature by shaping the future of nature conservation.
