Topic: R6 designation abbreviation

Hi All,

There are couple of designations in R6 that I cannot decipher. There are:
BOCI-DecBrit
BOCI-ModDec
ConReg-S2
ConReg-S3
ConReg-S4
NonIUCN_RedList_Birds1a
NonIUCN_RedList_Birds2
NonIUCN_RedList_Birds3
Status-NR (excl RedListed)
Status-NR (incl RedListed)
Yorks Jumb Bio Audit

I would welcome any help.

Thank you,
Marta
