1. Brief history- Need to generate and synthesize information from species at risk of extinction and of special economic and ecological value
- Get to know the conservation status of populations and inform policy-makers about its management.

Database on native species
Initial goals (2000-2010)
• Compile taxonomic, biological information, and primary literature.
• NOM-059-Semarnat-2001 “Mexican red list”.
• Provide species information through "fact sheets" available on CONABIO’s website.

2. 2011 Goals and current status
A. Develop clear criteria to identify information needs and gaps.B. Generate better knowledge about our priority species.C. Rely on good indicators to evaluate species conservation status.D. Promote and support monitoring efforts species populations.E. ID threats and conservation measures that can be taken to help
drive action.F. Inform policy-makers, conservation actions and the general
public.
Combine world-class knowledge, standards and tools to guide policies and inform action on the ground to conserve biodiversity.

3. Current status with respect to your goals
• 1,560 species pages (1,369 species at risk of extinction)• Linking information with digital cartography (species
occurrences and potential distribution)- Generate better knowledge about priority species
(700 new species pages in 2012)- ID good indicators to evaluate species conservation

Priority Species Program• 2011 Species Program Team (5 people)• Better and more complete knowledge of Mexican biota.
Especially for the most vulnerable species that require detailed information for conservation and management.
And of priority species that maximize efforts and optimize conservation strategies in Mexico.

Knowledge generation: distribution, threats, conservation measures
Basic information for species with no data
• Start a fellows program• Specific projects for not well
known groups (e.g. fungi)• Literature reviews
Detail information for key species
• Develop conservation indicators
• Promote and support monitoring efforts of species populations.
• ID threats• ID conservation actions that
can be taken

5. Challenges• Information exchange with other initiatives• Avoid duplicating efforts• Lack of Interoperability standards and documentation• Quality control• Use of information and increase impact on
conservation and management (e.g. NPA, species recovery programs, restoration programs, etc.)
• Implement a fellows program

6. Special opportunities
• Improve platforms to capture information• Improving outputs (application development)• Other products (e.g. species ID guides, invasive species,
wild relatives).• Interoperability standards (Plinian Core standards /TDWG)
more structured data greater capacity to search• BHL, digital libraries
