Status of breeding bird fauna based on the World Conservation Union (IUCN) Red List Index (RLI) method in British Columbia, Canada, was studied. The use of index to measure the trend in the status of indigenous breeding birds in British Columbia between 1992 and 2006 was examined. Ongoing immigration of bird species in and out of British Columbia added to the complexity of interpreting the regional RLI-type index. Because the RLI was scaled so that maximum value was based on a state in which all species were simultaneously ranked as least concern, it might exaggerate the highest potential status of intrinsically vulnerable species. The results concluded that the RLI approach holds useful innovation for an indicator...
