[NHCOLL-L:5810] Re: FW: Question, - CITES renewal

[lucia rapp]

Dear all,

I would like to know how to register our collection under the CITES list of
registered institutions to exchange scientific material.  We recently
received a message from New Zealand (see below) calling our attention to
the need of this registration, but apparently, the eletronic addresses sent
do not deal with registration.

see message below:
In order to send our specimens out of the country, we need the destination
institution to be registered either with CITES, or with the Australia
Wildlife Trade and Conservation group. I don't know if Brazil is a
signatory to the CITES agreement, so probably your best bet is to apply for
a Wildlife Trade permit. The only other option is to find an institute
nearby with a CITES number that you can get the specimens sent to for you
to collect.
The list of countries and CITES registered institutions can be found here:
http://www.cites.org/common/reg/e_si.html
The Wildlife Trade permit form can be found here:
http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/wildlife-trade/permits/forms/exchange.html

I would be very glad to hear anything from you.  Thanks for all
