Species\ \ are listed in one of three appendices based on the degree of protection needed.\n\ **Appendix Levels**:\n| Appendix | Protection Level | Trade Status | |----------|------------------|--------------|\ \ | APPENDIX_I | Highest | Trade prohibited (except non-commercial) | | APPENDIX_II\ \ | Moderate | Trade regulated with permits | | APPENDIX_III | Lowest | Trade\ \ monitored by request of a Party | | NOT_LISTED | None | Not regulated under\ \ CITES |\n**Temporal Considerations**:\nSpecies may move between appendices\ \ as their conservation status changes. The listing date is important for determining\ \ legal status at time of specimen acquisition.\n**Legal Significance**:\nFor\ \ heritage collections, CITES status affects: - Loan agreements between institutions\ \ - Specimen transfers and acquisitions - Import/export permit requirements\ \ - Documentation and provenance requirements\n**Example**: ```yaml listed_in:\n\ \ has_type: APPENDIX_I\n has_label: \"CITES Appendix I - Most\ \ Endangered\"\n listing_effective_date: \"1975-07-01\"\n listing_authority:\ \ \"CITES Secretariat\"\n species_covered: \"Raphus cucullatus\"\n```" slots: - has_type - has_label - effective_at slot_usage: has_type: # range: string required: true pattern: ^(APPENDIX_I|APPENDIX_II|APPENDIX_III|NOT_LISTED)$ examples: - value: APPENDIX_I - value: APPENDIX_II - value: APPENDIX_III - value: NOT_LISTED has_label: # range: string required: false examples: - value: CITES Appendix I - Trade Prohibited - value: CITES Appendix II - Trade Regulated exact_mappings: - hc:CITESAppendix close_mappings: - schema:PropertyValue see_also: - https://cites.org/eng/app/appendices.php - https://speciesplus.net/ examples: - value: has_type: APPENDIX_I has_label: CITES Appendix I - Most Endangered effective_at: '1975-07-01' - value: has_type: NOT_LISTED has_label: Not regulated under CITES annotations: specificity_score: 0.1 specificity_rationale: Generic utility class/slot created during migration custodian_types: '[''*'']'
