Review of selected species subject to long-standing import suspensions. Part I: Africa. UNEP-WCMC, Cambridge. The UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) is the specialist biodiversity assessment of the United Nations Environment Programme, the world’s foremost intergovernmental environmental organization. The Centre has been in operation for over 30 years, combining scientific research with policy advice and the development of decision tools. We are able to provide objective, scientifically rigorous products and services to help decision- makers recognize the value of biodiversity and apply this knowledge to all that they do. To do this, we collate and verify data on biodiversity and ecosystem services that we analyze and interpret in comprehensive assessments, making the results available in appropriate forms for national and international level decision-makers and businesses. To ensure that our work is both sustainable and equitable we seek to build the capacity of partners where needed, so that they can provide the same services at national and regional scales.

restrictions may still be warranted. This document also includes reviews of a number of Uroplatus species from Madagascar, which have been subject to EU import suspensions formed after 2005, but which were removed from the CITES Review of Significant Trade in 2014: Uroplatus ebenaui Uroplatus fimbriatus Uroplatus guentheri Uroplatus henkeli Uroplatus lineatus Uroplatus malama Uroplatus phantasticus Uroplatus pietschmanni Uroplatus sameiti Uroplatus sikorae Trade data were downloaded on 17/07/2015 and the full dataset is available here: https://db.tt/fzf6P7Lb (direct trade) and https://db.tt/d2jGCZIK (indirect trade). PRIMATES: CERCOPITHECIDAE 5 Cercopithecus mona II/B COMMON NAMES: Mona Monkey (EN), Cercopithèque mone (FR) RANGE STATES: Benin, Cameroon, Ghana, Grenada (introduced), Nigeria, Saint Kitts and Nevis (introduced), Sāo Tomé and Príncipe (introduced), Togo UNDER REVIEW: Togo EU DECISIONS: Current Article 4.6(b) import restriction for wild specimens from Togo first applied on 08/04/2003 and last confirmed on 28/05/2015. IUCN: Least Concern Trade patterns There was no reported direct or indirect trade in Cercopithecus mona from Togo to the EU-28 or the rest of the world over the period 2004-2013. Togo has yet submitted an annual report for 2006 or 2013. Conservation status Cercopithecus mona was reported to be native to southeast Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, and northwest Cameroon and to have been introduced to Sāo Tomé and Príncipe, as well as the Caribbean islands of Grenada and St. Kitts and Nevis (Mittermeier et al., 2013). The species was reported to occur in groups of up to 12 animals and

  • Distribution and Habitat of the Invasive Giant Day Gecko Phelsuma Grandis Gray 1870
    Phelsuma 22 (2014); 13-28 Distribution and habitat of the invasive giant day gecko Phelsuma grandis Gray 1870 (Sauria: Gekkonidae) in Reunion Island, and conservation implication Mickaël Sanchez1,* and Jean-Michel Probst1,2 1 Nature Océan Indien, 6, Lotissement les Magnolias, Rivière des Roches, 97470 Saint-Benoît, La Réunion, France 2 Nature et Patrimoine, 2, Allée Mangaron, Dos d’Ane, 97419 La Possession, La Réunion, France * Corresponding author; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The giant day gecko Phelsuma grandis, endemic to Madagascar, was introduced to Reunion Island (Indian Ocean) in the mid-1990s. No studies have been conducted so far to define its precise distribution and habitat. To fill the knowledge gap about this invasive species, we compiled available data and performed field work during 2007-2014. We detected 13 distinct populations of P. grandis, occurring mainly in the northern part of Reunion Island and on the west coast. This gecko inhabits human disturbed areas (gardens, urban parks, bamboos, orchards, coconuts, and banana plantation) and secondary habitats (shrubby savanna, and secondary dry woodlands, secondary dry and wet thickets). Its distribution strongly suggests that saltatory dispersal (through deliberate and/or accidental transport) and natural colonization are the mechanisms of spreading through Reunion Island. All our data in combination with both P. grandis ecology and native environmental range suggested that this gecko may colonize native forest, and constitutes a potential important threat to the native biodiversity of Reunion Island (arthropods and lizards). Key words. Phelsuma grandis, Reunion Island, distribution, invasive species, conservation. Introduction Day geckos of the genus Phelsuma are distributed in the western Indian Ocean (Austin et al.

Griffiths Project website www.madagasikara-voakajy.org Report authors, main Christian J. Randrianantoandro, Julie H. Razafimanahaka, contributors and date Richard Jenkins, Richard A. Griffiths 29 April 2013 Madagascar is underachieving in its implementation of CITES Article IV, on the regulation of trade in specimens of species included in Appendix II. There is a concern that unless significant improvements are made, both the number of species and individuals exported will become so few as to jeopardize the potential wider benefits of the trade to conservation and livelihoods. In 2011, there were 141 Malagasy animal species on Appendix II of CITES and most had either been suspended from the trade (48 chameleons and 28 geckos) or had attracted scrutiny from the CITES Animals Committee (e.g. Mantella frogs, Uroplatus lizards), indicating actual or potential problems with the implementation of the convention. Moreover, CITES exports provide little benefits to local livelihoods or biodiversity conservation.
