Species Being Considered for Changes to the Appendices to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora

摘要

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES or Convention) regulates international trade in certain animal and plant species, which are listed in the appendices of this treaty. The United States, as a Party to CITES, may propose amendments to the appendices for consideration by the other Parties. This notice invites comments and information from the public on species that have been identified as candidates for U.S. proposals to amend Appendix I or II at the next biennial meeting of Party countries.
