be subject to particularly strict regulation in order not to endanger
further their survival and must only be authorized in exceptional
circumstances.
2. Appendix II shall include:
a) all species which although not necessarily now threatened with
extinction may become so unless trade in specimens of such species
is subject to strict regulation in order to avoid utilization
incompatible with their survival; and
b) other species which must be subject to regulation in order that
trade in specimens of certain species referred to in subparagraph
(a) of this paragraph may be brought under effective control.
3. Appendix III shall include all species which any Party identifies as
being subject to regulation within its jurisdiction for the purposes of
preventing or restricting exploitation, and as needing the cooperation of
other parties in the control of trade.
4. The Parties shall not allow trade in specimens of species included in
Appendices I, II and III except in accordance with the provisions of the
present Convention.
