Appendix I
Interpretation
1.Migratory species included in this Appendix are referred to:
a) by the name of the species or subspecies; or
b) as being all of the migratory species included in a higher taxon or designated part thereof.
2. Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only.
3. The abbreviation for sensu lato "(s.l.)" is used to denote that the scientific name is used in its extended meaning.
4. An asterisk (*) placed against the name of a species indicates that the species, or a separate population of that species, or a higher taxon which includes that species is included in Appendix II.

Interpretation
1. Migratory species included in this Appendix are referred to:
a) by the name of the species or subspecies; or
b) as being all of the migratory species included in a higher taxon or designated part thereof.
Unless otherwise indicated, where reference is made to a taxon higher than species, it is understood that all the migratory species within that taxon could significantly benefit from the conclusion of AGREEMENTS.
2. The abbreviation "spp." following the name of a Family or Genus is used to denote all migratory species within that Family or Genus.
3. Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only.
4. The abbreviation "(s.l.)" is used to indicate that the scientific name is used in its extended meaning.
5. An asterisk (*) placed against the name of a species or higher taxon indicates that the species, or a separate population of that species, or one or more species included in that higher taxon is included in Appendix I.
