The fourth part in a series of action plan, this publication covers less than one-quarter of the world's antelope species that are found in North Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Herds numbering in the tens of thousands formerly occurred across the steppes and semi-deserts of Eurasia and India, but these have nearly all been reduced to fractions of their earlier size. Populations are fragmented across the region and several species have disappeared altogether during recent decades.
This checklist provides alphabetical lists of the species of fauna and flora included in Appendices I, II and III of CITES in order to help management and scientific authorities, customs officials, and all others involved in implementing and enforcing the Convention. This list provides not only the scientific names but also the common names in English, Spanish and French.
