Negative opinions

The table below summarises trade reported by EU Member States in 2013 in potential contravention of SRG negative opinions. Some negative opinions were not in place for all of 2013; in particular, negative opinions for Python regius and Ornithoptera croesus were formed towards the end of 2013 (06/12/2013), and negative opinions for Tridacna crocea, T. maxima and T. squamosa were replaced with trade suspensions part way through the year.

EU imports reported by EU Member States in 2013 in potential contravention of negative opinions of the Scientific Review Group. Quantities rounded to one decimal place, where applicable.
