Mauritania became a party to CITES in June, 1998, bring the total number of participating countries to 144. It is designed to promote conservation of endangered species while allowing commerce in species of wildlife that can withstand the pressures of trade. The convention has three categories of protection. Under its Appendix I, commercial trade in species that are threatened with extinction is generally prohibited. These species may be traded only under special conditions (usually for scientific research or display purposes). Such transactions require both an import permit from CITES authorities in the recipient country and an export permit from authorities in the country of origin... CITES allows conditional commercial trade in species that are not yet endangered but merit monitoring. These species are listed on Appendix II and may be traded only with an export permit from their country of origin. A third appendix to CITES is intended to help individual countries gain international cooperation in protecting native species. Any country may place a native plant or animal on Appendix III, making the species conditionally tradable. The species may not be traded without either an export permit from its native country (if that country listed it on Appendix III) or a certificate of origin (if it comes from a country that did not list it).

When sucking decreases as the young begins to eat other food and to leave the pouch, or if the young is lost from the pouch, the quiescent blastocyst resumes development, the embryo is born, and the cycle begins again.

The term can be used generally to apply to all such food organisms, but it is frequently used to refer specifically to shrimp-like animals of the group Euphausiacae, especially the Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba. This species is the most important food source for southern whales and other animals. It is about 2.5 cm (1) long, and has been observed in swarms as large as an estimated 2.5 million metric tons (2.8 million tons) (Bonner 1989).</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145511"> <div>  <p>Referring to an animal that feeds on many kinds of food.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145512"> <div>  <p>A horny substance, commonly known as whalebone, that grows as plates from the upper jaws of certain whales, and forms a fringelike filter for extracting plankton such as krill from seawater.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145513"> <div>  <ol class="arabic simple"><li>...the more fundamental conception is ... the whole system ..., including not only the organism-complex, but also the whole complex of physical factors forming what we call the environment of the biome - the habitat factors in the widest sense.

For more information, see: <a class="reference" href="http://www.redlist.org/">http://www.redlist.org/</a>.</p> <p>The IUCN categories and criteria are: <strong>EXTINCT (EX)</strong> - A taxon is Extinct when there is no reasonable doubt that the last individual has died. <strong>EXTINCT IN THE WILD (EW)</strong> - A taxon is Extinct in the wild when it is known only to survive in cultivation, in captivity or as a naturalised population (or populations) well outside the past range. A taxon is presumed extinct in the wild when exhaustive surveys in known and/or expected habitat, at appropriate times (diurnal, seasonal, annual), throughout its historic range have failed to record an individual. Surveys should be over a time frame appropriate to the taxon's life cycle and life form. <strong>CRITICALLY ENDANGERED (CR)</strong> - A taxon is Critically Endangered when it is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future, as defined by any of the criteria (A to E) as described below. <strong>ENDANGERED (EN)</strong> - A taxon is Endangered when it is not Critically Endangered but is facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future, as defined by any of the criteria (A to E) as described below. <strong>VULNERABLE (VU)</strong> - A taxon is Vulnerable when it is not Critically Endangered or Endangered but is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term future <strong>LOWER RISK (LR)</strong> - A taxon is Lower Risk when it has been evaluated, does not satisfy the criteria for any of the categories Critically Endangered, Endangered or Vulnerable. Taxa included in the Lower Risk category can be separated into three subcategories:</p> <p><strong>Conservation Dependent (cd)</strong>. Taxa which are the focus of a continuing taxon-specific or habitat-specific conservation programme targeted towards the taxon in question, the cessation of which would result in the taxon qualifying for one of the threatened categories above within a period of five years. <strong>Near Threatened (nt)</strong>. Taxa which do not qualify for Conservation Dependent, but which are close to qualifying for Vulnerable. <strong>Least Concern (lc)</strong>. Taxa which do not qualify for Conservation Dependent or Near Threatened. <strong>DATA DEFICIENT (DD)</strong> A taxon is Data Deficient when there is inadequate information to make a direct, or indirect, assessment of its risk of extinction based on its distribution and/or population status. A taxon in this category may be well studied, and its biology well known, but appropriate data on abundance and/or distribution is lacking. Data Deficient is therefore not a category of threat or Lower Risk. Listing of taxa in this category indicates that more information is required and acknowledges the possibility that future research will show that threatened classification is appropriate. It is important to make positive use of whatever data are available. In many cases great care should be exercised in choosing between DD and threatened status. If the range of a taxon is suspected to be relatively circumscribed, if a considerable period of time has elapsed since the last record of the taxon, threatened status may well be justified. <strong>NOT EVALUATED (NE)</strong> A taxon is Not Evaluated when it is has not yet been assessed against the criteria.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145752"> <div>  <p>active at dawn and dusk</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145753"> <div>  <p>the stage in an animal's lifecycle when they cease being motile and become attached to a substrate.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145754"> <div>  <p>The rate at which additional species are encountered as geographic replacements within a habitat type in different localities; i.e., the species turnover rate with distance between sites of similar habitat, or with expanding geographic areas.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145755"> <div>  <p>The study of the interrelationships among plants, animals and other organisms and their interaction with all aspects of their natural environment.</p> </div> </div> <div id="20020904145756"> <div>  <ol class="arabic simple"><li>One of a pair of hardened mouthparts, modified from the third segment, found in insects, crustaceans, millipedes, and centipedes.

A species is polymorphic if its individuals can be divided into two or more easily recognized groups, based on structure, color, or other similar characteristics. The term only applies when the distinct groups can be found in the same area; graded or clinal variation throughout the range of a species (e.g. a north-to-south decrease in size) is not polymorphism. Polymorphic characteristics may be inherited because the differences have a genetic basis, or they may be the result of environmental influences.
