Species included in this Schedule are referred to: a) by the name of the species; or b) as being all of the species included in a higher taxon or designated part thereof. 2. The abbreviation "spp." is used to denote all species of a higher taxon. 3. Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only. The common names included after the scientific names of families are for reference only. They are intended to indicate the species within the family concerned that are included in this Schedule. In most cases this is not all of the species within the family. 4. The following abbreviations are used for plant taxa below the level of species: a) "ssp." is used to denote subspecies; and b) "var(s)." is used to denote variety (varieties). 5. As none of the species or higher taxa of FLORA included in Column 1 is annotated to the effect that its hybrids shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of Article III of the Convention, this means that artificially propagated hybrids produced from one or more of these species or taxa may be traded with a certificate of artificial propagation, and that seeds and pollen (including pollinia), cut flowers, seedling or tissue cultures obtained in vitro, in solid or liquid media, transported in sterile containers of these hybrids are not subject to the provisions of the Convention. 6. The names of the countries in parentheses placed against the names of species in Column 3 are those of the Parties submitting these species for inclusion in Appendix III. 7. When a species is included in one of the Columns, all parts and derivatives of the species are also included in the same column unless the species is annotated to indicate that only specific parts and derivatives are included. The symbol # 31 followed by a number placed against the name of a species or higher taxon included in Columns 2 or 3 refers to a footnote that indicates the parts or derivatives of plants that are designated as 'specimens' subject to the provisions of the Convention in accordance with Article I, paragraph (b ), subparagraph (iii). 8. The terms and expressions below, used in annotations in this Schedule, are defined as follows: Extract Any substance obtained directly from plant material by physical or chemical means regardless of the manufacturing process.
