UK ecosystems continue to decline or show little improvement, according to 2025 biodiversity indicator data.
The indicators, published annually since 2007, track progress toward national and international biodiversity targets.
Scientists at UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology contributed key species trend analyses.
The report was published by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee and Department for the Environment, Food & Rural Affairs.
Most indicators show long term declines, though some trends have stabilised in recent years.
Data from Butterfly Conservation show over half of monitored butterfly species have declined since 1976.
Scientists say volunteer monitoring is essential and encourage public action to support wildlife locally.
