Collection of data sheets designed to help identify various species of fauna with drawings (black and white), maps and concise descriptions. It is a useful tool for management and scientific authorities, customs officials, and all others involved in implementing and enforcing CITES.
With colour paintings and concise descriptions, this richly illustrated guide will help identify all the birds included in the CITES appendices.
Adopted at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992, the Convention on biological diversity has now been ratified by over 160 countries and forms the backbone of many of the biodiversity activities that have taken place over the last five years. However, despite the unprecedented success of this major international convention, many questions still remain unanswered and many uncertainties prevail.
