Considers seven proposals for inclusion of species under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), Appendix II: Lamna nasus (porbeagle shark); Squalus acanthias (spiny dogfish); all species in family Pristidae (sawfishes); Anguilla anguilla (European eel); Pterapogon kauderni (Banggai cardinalfish); and Panulirus argus and P. laevicauda of the Brazilian lobster population genus Corallium (red/pink corals).
