State of the Environment and Conservation in the Pacific Islands: 2020 Regional Report: Indicator 21 - Status of Migratory Species of Concern

To date, there is no defined list of priority migratory species of concern (indicator species) at the regional level for the Pacific islands to direct efforts. The Regional Marine Species Action Plans (under revision; see below) and the regional CMS Memorandum of Understanding (2006) for cetaceans can be considered as part of regional level prioritisation. For birds, Bird Life’s Data zone includes a list of migratory species for each country in the region. At the national level, priority species may be defined in the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) created as part of country efforts under the Convention on Biological Diversity.
