Genetic analysis of tarantulas in the genus Brachypelma using Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) Abstract There is a great deal of morphological and genetic species diversity on Earth that requires careful conservation. One such genetically diverse genus of tarantulas is that of Brachypelma. In this study, we employ a newer DNA fingerprinting technique known as Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR), ot study the genetic variation among Brachypelma species and to determine if the invasive Brachypelma tarantula found in Florida B. vagans. Although B. vagans is a species protected under CITES Appendix II, this species has a wide distribution in Mexico and traits allowing for invasion to new habitats. It was hypothesized that the invasive tarantula in Florida is that of B. vagans and that it would be more closely related to samples from the Mexican populations as opposed to samples from the United States pet trade.

    THE ROLE OF FRANCE IN WILDLIFE TRADE AN ANALYSIS OF CITES TRADE AND SEIZURE DATA Joint report with About WWF WWF is one of the world’s largest and most experienced independent conservation organizations, with over 5 million supporters and a global network active in more than 100 countries. WWF’s mission is to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by conserving the world’s biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption. Since 1973, WWF France has worked on a constant stream of projects to provide future generations with a living planet. With the support of its volunteers and 220,000 donators, WWF France leads concrete actions to safeguard natural environments and their species, ensure promotion of sustainable ways of life, train decision-makers, engage with businesses to reduce their ecological footprint and educate young people. The only way to implement true change is to respect everyone in the process. That is why dialogue and action are keystones for the WWF philosophy. The navigator Isabelle Autissier has been President of WWF France since December 2009, and Véronique Andrieux was named Chief Executive Officer in 2019.
