Species without a photograph close the list. Photographs are stored on this site with each photographer's credit and licence, listed on the photo credits page.

A species listed under more than one appendix is counted once here, in its own bucket: 2 of them. The manuscript, which is built from this dataset, breaks them out the same way in its tally, and differs by one species: where a single listing row carries a compound value such as I/II, it counts that species under the first appendix the value names rather than as split. Which species, and both tallies, with the derivation.

How this page was produced derived

Read at request time from arctic_api.species, species_iucn (the latest global assessment), species_listing, species_trade_summary and species_seizure, the same views each species page reads. Trade records are exporter-reported, the side every species page reports; importer reports are a second account of the same trade and are not added. Nothing here is entered by hand.
