@Fanevanjanahary the CITES information is available here https://cites.org/eng/parties/country-profiles/za and the species information is here https://cites.org/eng/app/appendices.php and the checklist is here https://checklist.cites.org

We need to find a way to make an API to get the Cites status eg the appendix the species is in for each species in the FBIS or SANParks BIMS sites.

@helendallas deployed on staging, but it only shows the data for a small number of species.
E.g. panthera leo:

https://sanparks.sta.do.kartoza.com/map/#species-detail/taxon=11437&search=Panthera%20leo&siteId=&collector=&category=&yearFrom=&yearTo=&months=&boundary=&userBoundary=&referenceCategory=&spatialFilter=&reference=&endemic=&conservationStatus=[]&modules=&validated=&sourceCollection=&module=occurrence&ecologicalCategory=&rank=&siteIdOpen=&orderBy=name&polygon=&dst=&ecosystemType=

Thanks @dimasciput Tow points

Can you include a link to the relevant Cites page on the Taxon Dashboard?

Is it possible to include it in Taxon Management as well like you do for IUCN, plus then also in the Taxon Management filter?

Hi @helendallas

Currently, the implementation of CITES is different from GBIF and IUCN because there are so few species available in CITES. When you open the dashboard, it directly checks CITES, so we don't store anything on our site.

Therefore, adding the filter and the tag will take more time. I need to add a new field to the model and update the script for adding taxa to also fetch CITES data. This will probably take a day.

@helendallas

Also, CITES doesn't provide any links like GBIF or IUCN. It only returns text data. We can probably use Species+ instead. We can use the taxon concept ID from CITES and then get the data there:

For example, Panthera leo: https://speciesplus.net/species#/taxon_concepts/6353/legal

THanks, ok so different fish :)

I reckon the link you showed would work.

@dimasciput I get an error message on production.

e.g panthera Leo

@helendallas sorry forgot to add the cites key to the production, please try again

Great thanks @dimasciput . I am sent link to Dian and Judith for comment

Cites should be in capital:

CITES = Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora

Also if SANParks want CITES status listed on their checklist (see #3608 ), can it be autopopulated from the api link or will they need to capture manually as an attribute in the taxon management module.

CITES has three categories: Appendix I, II or III.

This is what could be stored in the Taxon Master list/taxon management.
