PHOENIX ISLANDS PROTECTED AREA MANAGEMENT PLAN <strong>Chapter</strong> III. Background, 7. Regulations, Laws and International Agreements Draft 1 March 2007 Pierce et al (2006) provided a detailed proposal on the feasibility on eradication of key exotic species in the Phoenix Islands. This initial proposal focussed on high priority actions as outlined above. ENDANGERED SPECIES Pierce et al (2006) reported that two species of birds in the Phoenix Islands were listed in the IUCN (2004) Red List of Threatened Species: 1) The Phoenix petrel, Pterodroma alba - endanged. 2) White-throated storm-petrel, Nesofregetta albigularis - vulnerable. Two sources of endangered species lists were examined. These included the IUCN Red List http://www.iucnredlist.org/ and CITES Appendices (see http://www.cites.org/eng/resources/species.html). The IUCN Red Lists uses defined criteria to determine the status of a species. The decision tree used is listed below (see Figure III-6.2). In addition, prior rating criteria can be carried forward for rating species. Figure III-6.2. Decision tree and criteria rating used by IUCN Red List. (source: http://www.iucnredlist.org/) The IUCN Red List for Kiribati is presented in Table xx below. Many of the species presented in Table III-6.3 below are found in the Phoenix Islands.
