Notes to Appendix II

On 3 December 1993 the Standing Committee to the Convention adopted the following Recommendation (No. 39 (1993)):

The Standing Committee of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats, acting under the terms of Article 14 of the Convention Recommends that Contracting Parties take into consideration the following technical notes while implementing the Convention. Asterisks have been written where the name of the species has been changed to a more recent one, but the old name is kept in brakets. Footnotes have been used to update taxonomically some taxa.

1 Mauremys caspica has been divided into two new species:

2 Coluber jugularis has been divided into two new species:

3 Coluber najadum has been divided into two new species:

4 Vipera lebetina has been divided into two new species:

5 Salamandra atra has been divided into two new species:

6 Discus defloratus : This species is no longer recognised as a taxonomically valid species as it was described from a few specimens, now recognised as belonging to a different species of Discus.
