COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2021/2280

of 16 December 2021

amending Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97 on the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein and Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 laying down detailed rules concerning the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97 of 9 December 1996 on the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein (1), and in particular Article 19(3), (4) and (5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Regulation (EC) No 338/97 regulates trade in animal and plant species listed in the Annex to that Regulation. The species listed in that Annex include the species listed in the Appendices to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (‘the Convention’) as well as other species whose conservation status requires that trade from, into and within the Union be regulated or monitored.

(2)

Levels of trade in certain species require monitoring in order to collect data and consider whether stricter protection might be necessary in the future. To this end, the Scientific Review Group, established pursuant to Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 338/97, has during its regular meetings in 2019 and 2020 reviewed different species and concluded that the following taxa should be included in Annex D to that Regulation: Otocryptis wiegmanni, Platysaurus imperator, Tracheloptychus petersi, Zonosaurus maximus, Pseudocerastes spp. (except for the species listed in Annex B), and Atelopus spp. (except for the species listed in Annex A). The Scientific Review Group also concluded that the following species should be included in Annex D, with an annotation delimiting which types of specimens are covered by the listing: Handroanthus spp., Tabebuia spp., Roseodendron spp., Aucoumea klaineana, Rhodiola spp., Boswellia spp., Millettia stuhlmannii, Pterocarpus macrocarpus, Entandrophragma cylindricum, Khaya spp., Okoubaka aubrevillei and Baillonella toxisperma.

(3)

New annotations should be inserted in the Notes on interpretation of Annexes A, B, C and D. It is necessary to insert one annotation in paragraph 12 in relation to a new listing in Annex C, to reflect the listing in Appendix III by the range state. It is also necessary to insert two annotations in paragraph 17 in relation to tree species to be included in Annex D, in order to ensure that the specimens which occur in international trade are covered by the listing.

(4)

In view of recent taxonomic changes agreed by the eighteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention, held in Geneva, Switzerland, from 17 to 28 August 2019 (CoP 18), it is appropriate to replace the current listing of Homalopsis bucata in Annex D by the listing of the entire genus Homalopsis spp. It is necessary to change Prionailurus iriomotensis in Annex A to Prionailurus bengalensis euptilurus, and the listing of Agalychnis spp. in Annex B into a listing of Agalychnis annae, A. callidryas, A. moreletii, A. saltator and A. spurrelli. It is also necessary to change the listing of the family Pristidae so that it falls under the order Rhinopristiformes. The spelling of Pelophylax shqipericus in Annex D needs to be corrected and Lophura hatinhensis needs to be deleted from Annex B as it is treated as L. edwardsi.

(5)

The footnote in the Annex to the Regulation related to Ovis collium, O. darwini, O. jubata, O. karelini, O. polii, and O. severtzovi which states ‘This taxon is referred to as Ovis ammon in Annex XIII to Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006’ should be removed, to bring it in line with Annex XIII to Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 (2), as amended by Article 2(14) of the present Regulation. These amendments are a consequence of changes in the taxonomy of this group of species.

(6)	The text of certain annotations in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 338/97 should be amended to improve clarity (Canis lupus, Caracara lutosa, Ceratophora aspera, C. stoddartii, Lyriocephalus scutatus, Crotalus durissus, and Rheobatrachus spp.).

(7)	Goniurosaurus spp. should be moved from the family Eublepharidae to the family Gekkonidae in order to bring the listing in line with the current standard nomenclature.

(8)

The following species have been included in Appendix III to the Convention since 14 February 2021: Goniurosaurus kuroiwae, Goniurosaurus orientalis, Goniurosaurus sengokui, Goniurosaurus splendens, Goniurosaurus toyamai, Goniurosaurus yamashinae and Echinotriton andersoni (all with annotation) at the request of Japan, and Calotes ceylonensis, Calotes desilvai, Calotes liocephalus, Calotes liolepis, Calotes manamendrai, Calotes nigrilabris, Calotes pethiyagodai at the request of Sri Lanka. The following species have been included in Appendix III to the Convention since 22 June 2021: Lodoicea maldivica (with annotation) at the request of the Seychelles, and Alauda arvensis, Galerida cristata, Lullula arborea, Melanocorypha calandra, Emberiza citronella, Emberiza hortulana, Carduelis cannabina, Carduelis carduelis, Carduelis flammea, Carduelis hornemanni, Carduelis spinus, Carpodacus erythrinus, Loxia curvirostra, Pyrrhula pyrrhula, Serinus serinus, Erithacus rubecula, Ficedula parva, Hippolais icterina, Luscinia svecica, Luscinia luscinia, Luscinia megarhynchos, Monticola saxatilis, Sylvia atricapilla, Sylvia borin, Sylvia curruca, Sylvia nisoria, Turdus merula, Turdus philomelos, Oriolus oriolus, Parus ater, Troglodytes troglodytes and Emys orbicularis (only applicable to the population of Ukraine) at the request of Ukraine. These amendments to Appendix III should be reflected in Annex C to Regulation (EC) No 338/97.

(9)

The Scientific Review Group has concluded at its regular meetings in 2020, and through several consultations in writing, that listing of the following species in Annex D to Regulation (EC) No 338/97 is no longer necessary, and these species should be deleted from that Annex: Dendrolagus dorianus, Dendrolagus goodfellowi, Dendrolagus matschiei, Dendrolagus pulcherrimus, Dendrolagus stellarum, Columba oenops, Didunculus strigirostris, Ducula pickeringii, Gallicolumba crinigera, Ptilinopus marchei, Turacoena modesta, Crax alector, Pauxi unicornis, Penelope pileata, Eulipoa wallacei, Arborophila gingica, Lophura bulweri, Lophura diardi, Lophura inornata, Bombycilla japonica, Cyanocorax caeruleus, Cyanocorax dickeyi, Procnias nudicollis, Dacnis nigripes, Sporophila falcirostris, Sporophila frontalis, Sporophila hypochroma, Sporophila palustris, Amandava amandava, Cryptospiza reichenovii, Erythrura coloria, Erythrura viridifacies, Estrilda quartinia (frequently traded as Estrilda melanotis), Hypargos niveoguttatus, Lonchura griseicapilla, Lonchura punctulata, Lonchura stygia, Carduelis ambigua, Carduelis atrata, Kozlowia roborowskii, Pyrrhula erythaca, Serinus canicollis, Serinus citrinelloides hypostictus (frequently traded as Serinus citrinelloides), Sturnella militaris, Cochoa azurea, Cochoa purpurea, Garrulax formosus, Garrulax galbanus, Garrulax milnei, Niltava davidi, Stachyris whiteheadi, Swynnertonia swynnertoni (also referenced as Pogonicichla swynnertoni), Turdus dissimilis, Pitta nipalensis, Pitta steerii, Sitta magna, Sitta yunnanensis, Lamprotornis regius, Mino dumontii, Sturnus erythropygius, Teratoscincus microlepis, Rhabdophis subminiatus, Calloselasma rhodostoma, Baronia brevicornis, Papilio grosesmithi, Papilio maraho, Calibanus hookeri, Biarum davisii ssp. marmarisense, Biarum ditschianum, Othonna cacalioides, Othonna hallii, Othonna lepidocaulis, Ceraria carrissoana, and Ceraria fruticulosa.

(10)	On the basis of review by the Scientific Review Group, three subspecies should be added to the listing in Annex D to Regulation (EC) No 338/97 of Teratoscincus scincus.

(11)	It is necessary to correct certain formatting errors in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 338/97.

(12)	In view of the extent of the amendments it is appropriate, for clarity purposes, to replace the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 338/97 in its entirety.

(13)	Regulation (EC) No 338/97 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(14)	The purpose of Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 is to implement Regulation (EC) No 338/97 and to ensure full compliance with the provisions of the Convention.

(15)

CoP 18 adopted or amended Resolutions concerning, inter alia, the criteria to determine the purpose of a transaction, the list of standard references used for determining the names of species listed in the Appendices to the Convention, as well as introducing a new code to be used in permits and certificates. Therefore, in order to incorporate those CoP 18 agreements into Union law, it is necessary to amend certain provisions and to add further provisions to Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(16)	CoP 18 amended Resolution Conf. 12.3, on Permits and certificates, with regard to different purposes of transaction and the codes to be used in Convention documents for designating those purposes. Those amendments should be made in Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(17)	CoP 18 further amended Resolution Conf. 12.3 by inserting a new code to be used to indicate the source of certain plant specimens which do not conform to any of the previously existing codes. That new source code should be included in Annex IX to Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(18)	Resolution Conf. 12.3 was furthermore amended with regard to the validity of Convention documents for specimens of species that have been transferred to Appendix I of the Convention. That amendment should be reflected in Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(19)	Annex IV to Resolution Conf. 12.3, on Types of biological samples and their use, was also amended, and those amendments should be reflected in Annex XI to Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(20)	CoP 18 also amended Resolution Conf. 11.3, on Compliance and enforcement, inter alia with regard to the conditions under which export permits and re-export certificates issued by third countries are to be accepted. Those amendments should be reflected in Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(21)	CoP 18 amended Resolution Conf. 12.11, on Standard nomenclature, and the new standard references for nomenclature should be reflected in Annex VIII to Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(22)

Already at its seventeenth meeting held in Johannesburg, South Africa, from 24 September to 4 October 2016 (CoP 17), the Conference of the Parties to the Convention amended Resolution Conf. 11.17, on National reports, by replacing the previous biennial reports with implementation reports to be submitted every three years. This change should be reflected in Regulation (EC) No 865/2006.

(23)

CoP 17 also amended Resolution Conf. 10.10, on Trade in elephant specimens, recommending that ‘all Parties […] in whose jurisdiction there is a legal domestic market for ivory that is contributing to poaching or illegal trade, take all necessary legislative, regulatory and enforcement measures to close their domestic markets for commercial trade in raw and worked ivory as a matter of urgency’.

(24)	The information available at present shows that important quantities of old ivory items are present in the Union, mostly imported into EU Member States before elephant species were included in Appendix I to the Convention.

(25)	To strengthen the fight against illegal ivory trade, and taking into account the principle of proportionality, the rules and enforcement efforts need to be reinforced proportionally to the risks identified with respect to the poaching of elephants and illegal trade in ivory.

(26)

The general exemption granted in accordance with Article 8, paragraph 4, of Regulation (EC) No 338/97, which allows worked ivory specimens that were acquired more than 50 years previously as defined in Article 2(w) of Regulation (EC) No 338/97 to be traded without a certificate issued in accordance with Article 8, paragraph 3 of the same Regulation, should be removed for worked specimens containing elephant ivory. As a consequence, it will no longer be possible to market worked ivory without a certificate issued in accordance with Article 8, paragraph 3 of the same Regulation.

(27)

In parallel, account should be taken of the fact that certificates referred to in Article 8, paragraph 3 of Regulation (EC) No 338/97 which concern elephant ivory specimens have been issued for almost 40 years (since entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82) and that Union law does not require competent authorities to periodically renew them. As a consequence, it is not possible to have a complete overview of the certificates issued and, in some cases, due to administrative practice evolving over time, doubts may arise as to whether the certified material corresponds to the certificate issued. In order to better contribute to the continuous fight against illegal trade and to allow competent authorities of the Member States to strengthen the control of the trade in elephant ivory within the Union, it appears therefore necessary to set an expiry date to all these certificates. Taking into account the need for operators and authorities to adapt to these changes, the expiry date should be set after a transition period of 12 months after the entry into force of this Regulation.

(28)

For a certain time after the removal of these exemptions becomes effective, the amendments are expected to lead to an increase in the number of applications for certificates which are newly required for commercial activities in elephant ivory specimens. The time period within which applications for such certificates are to be processed by Member States’ management authorities should therefore be extended during the first year after the entry into force of this Regulation.

(29)	Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(30)	The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Trade in Wild Fauna and Flora,

(1) OJ L 61, 3.3.1997, p. 1.

(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 of 4 May 2006 laying down detailed rules concerning the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97 on the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein (OJ L 166, 19.6.2006, p. 1).

ANNEX 1

‘ANNEX

Notes on interpretation of Annexes A, B, C and D

Species included in Annexes A, B, C and D are referred to:

(a)	by the name of the species; or

(b)	as being all of the species included in a higher taxon or designated part thereof.

The abbreviation ‘spp.’ is used to denote all species of a higher taxon.

Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only.

Species printed in bold in Annex A are listed there in consistency with their protection as provided for by Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) or Council Directive 92/43/EEC (2).

The following abbreviations are used for plant taxa below the level of species:

(a)	‘ssp.’ is used to denote subspecies;

(b)	‘var(s).’ is used to denote variety (varieties); and

(c)	‘fa.’ is used to denote forma.

The symbols ‘(I)’, ‘(II)’ and ‘(III)’ placed against the name of a species or higher taxon refer to the Appendices to the Convention in which the species concerned are listed as indicated in notes 7, 8 and 9. Where none of these annotations appears, the species concerned are not listed in the Appendices to the Convention.

(I) against the name of a species or higher taxon indicates that the species or higher taxon concerned is included in Appendix I to the Convention.

(II) against the name of a species or higher taxon indicates that the species or higher taxon concerned is included in Appendix II to the Convention.

(III) against the name of a species or higher taxon indicates that it is included in Appendix III to the Convention. In this case the country with respect to which the species or higher taxon is included in Appendix III is also indicated.

10.

‘Cultivar’ means, following the definition of the 8th edition of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants, an assemblage of plants that (a) has been selected for a particular character or combination of characters, (b) is distinct, uniform, and stable in these characters, and (c) when propagated by appropriate means, retains those characters. No new taxon of a cultivar can be regarded as such until its category name and circumscription has been formally published in the latest edition of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants.

11.

Hybrids may be specifically included in the Appendices but only if they form distinct and stable populations in the wild. Hybrid animals that have in their previous four generations of the lineage one or more specimens of species included in Annexes A or B shall be subject to this Regulation just as if they were full species, even if the hybrid concerned is not specifically included in the Annexes.

12.

When a species is included in Annex A, B or C, the whole animal or plant, whether alive or dead, and all parts and derivatives thereof are also included. Regarding animal species listed in Annex C and plant species listed in Annex B or C, all parts and derivatives of the species are also included in the same Annex unless the species is annotated to indicate that only specific parts and derivatives are included. In accordance with Article 2(t), the symbol ‘#’ followed by a number placed against the name of a species or higher taxon included in Annex B or C designates parts or derivatives which are specified in relation thereto for the purposes of this Regulation as follows:

Designates all parts and derivatives, except:

(a)	seeds, spores and pollen (including pollinia);

(b)	seedling or tissue cultures obtained in vitro, in solid or liquid media, transported in sterile containers;

For the term "10 kg per shipment", the 10 kg limit should be interpreted as referring to the weight of the individual portions of each item in the shipment made of wood of the species concerned. In other words, the 10 kg limit is to be assessed against the weight of the individual portions of wood of Dalbergia/Guibourtia species contained in each item of the shipment, rather than against the total weight of the shipment.

Transformed wood

Defined by Harmonized System code 44.09. Wood (including strips, friezes for parquet flooring, not assembled), continuously shaped (tongued, grooved, v-jointed, beaded or the like) along any edges, ends or faces, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed.
