The main turtles that are endangered are the Loggerhead Turtle and the Green Turtle.

Additional Information: There are many different types of turtles that are listed by the International Union of Conservation for Nature, or the IUCN Red List. There are over 200 species listed under turtles. That includes all the status ranges, and the wide range of turtles from all over the world. Also, the US Fish and Wildlife Endangered Species List, has right at 50 different species listed. That list includes both the status threatened and endangered posted. A quick scan found a couple that were duplicates, but most appear to be additional listings of different species by this report. For more please, details see the sites listed below.

  • Schaus Swallowtail Butterfly
  • Lange's Metalmark Butterfly
  • San Bruno Elfin Butterfly
  • El Segundo Blue Butterfly
  • Smith's Blue Butterfly
  • Palos Verdes Blue Butterfly
  • Fender's Blue Butterfly
  • Mission Blue Butterfly
  • Lotis Blue Butterfly
  • Karner Blue Butterfly
  • Uncompahgre Fritillary Butterfly

  • Saint Francis' Satyr Butterfly
  • Mitchell's Satyr Butterfly
  • Callippe Silverspot Butterfly

  • Oregon Silverspot Butterfly

I believe the Monarch Butterfly is also endangered, and there are endangered moths as well.
