aClassification of rare and endangered forms:
Category 1 ENDANGERED In immediate danger of extinction: continued survival
unlikely without the implementation of special protective measures.
Category 2 RARE Not under immediate threat of extinction, but occurring in such
small numbers and/or in such a restricted or specialized habitat that it could
quickly disappear.
Category 3 DEPLETED Although still occurring in numbers adequate for survival,
the species has been heavily depleted and continues to decline at a rate that gives
cause for serious concern.
Category 4 INDETERMINANT Apparently in danger, but insufficient data cur-
rently available on which to base a reliable assessment of status. Needs further
study.
Star listing * * *Species or subspecies critically endangered.
Symbols (a) Full species.
(b) Subspecies.
E Exotic, introduced or captive populations believed more numerous than
indigenous stock.
M Under active management in a national park or other reserve.
P Legally protested, at least in some parts of its range.
R Included because of its restricted range.
S Secrecy still desirable.
T Subject to substantial export trade.
