dc.descriptionThe document reviews the characteristics of exploited aquatic organisms in relation to the risk that they may become extinct. This includes a review of case histories of species that have become extinct, or are at high risk, and of regions which have suffered loss of biodiversity. Life-history attributes, habitats of aquatic species and the characteristics of the fisheries that exploit them are considered. Approaches to assessing risk employed by various groups of experts are conside red. The contrast between approaches used to assessing risk for terrestrial species and those used for aquatic species are highlighted. The document also contains an overview of the spectrum of fisheries and ecosystem management and conservation institutions and tools in order to illustrate the overall context in which the CITES criteria will have to operate. Finally, the report provides a detailed evaluation of the applicability of the CITES listing criteria, definitions, guidelines, etc. to exploited marine species.
