Abstract: The ongoing global bio ersity crisis not only involves biological extinctions, but also the loss of experience and the gradual fading of cultural knowledge and collective memory of species. We refer to this phenomenon as 'societal extinction of species' and apply it to both extinct and extant taxa. We describe the underlying concepts as well as the mechanisms and factors that affect this process, discuss its main implications, and identify mitigation measures. Societal extinction is cognitively intractable, but it is tied to biological extinction and thus has important consequences for conservation policy and management. It affects societal perceptions of the severity of anthropogenic impacts and of true extinction rates, erodes societal support for conservation efforts, and causes the loss of cultural heritage.

Abstract: Citizen science plays a crucial role in helping monitor bio ersity and inform conservation. With the widespread use of smartphones, many people share posts that contain bio ersity information on social media, but this information is still not widely used in conservation. Focusing on Bangladesh, a tropical mega‐ erse and mega‐populated country, we examine the importance of social media records in conservation decision‐making. We show that adding Facebook data to the Global Bio ersity Information Facility (GBIF) data improved the accuracy of conservation planning assessments by identifying additional important conservation areas in the northwest, southeast and central parts of Bangladesh, extending priority conservation areas by 4,000‐10,000 km 2 . Community efforts are needed to drive the implementation of the ambitious Kunming‐Montreal Global Bio ersity Framework targets, especially in mega‐ erse tropical countries with a lack of reliable and up‐to‐date species distribution data. We highlight that conservation planning can be enhanced by including available data gathered from social media platforms. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
