Lead authors and contributors This document should be seen as a product of the SSC Species Conservation Planning Task Force as a whole. However, within that group, a number of lead writers spearheaded individual chapters, supported by several others who contributed through comments on numerous drafts, examples, and sections of chapters. We sincerely thank the dedicated individuals from the writing team, who, despite otherwise full schedules, spent many days writing, fine-tuning, and trying to accommodate diverging or additional views on the approach we propose here. The lead authors and substantive contributors for each chapter were as follows: Preface: Eric Sanderson, Robert Lacy, and Simon Hedges. Chapter 1: Philip McGowan and David Mallon. Chapter 2: Simon Hedges, with significant contributions from Holly Dublin, Dave Garshelis, Robert Lacy, David Mallon, Philip Miller, Philip McGowan, Eric Sanderson, Claudio Sillero-Zubiri, and Rosie Woodroffe. Chapter 3: Robert Lacy, Simon Hedges, with significant contributions from David Mallon, Philip McGowan, Patricia Medici, John Haslett, and Claudio Sillero-Zubiri. Chapter 4: Simon Hedges, with contributions from Richard Emslie, David Mallon, Patricia Medici, and Rosie Woodroffe. Chapter 5: Eric Sanderson, with significant contributions from Rosie Woodroffe, Simon Hedges, David Mallon, Philip McGowan, and Dave Garshelis. Chapter 6: Simon Hedges, with significant contributions from Eric Sanderson, Rosie Woodroffe, and David Mallon. Chapter 7: Rosie Woodroffe and Simon Hedges, with significant contributions from David Mallon, Philip Miller, Robert Lacy, Philip McGowan, Claudio Sillero-Zubiri, Holly Dublin, and Dave Garshelis. Chapter 8: Rosie Woodroffe, with significant contributions from Simon Hedges, Margaret Kinnaird, Claudio Sillero-Zubiri, and Philip Miller. Chapter 9: Rosie Woodroffe and Sarah Durant.

These standards are the product of inputs, field tests, discussions, and debates among many CMP members and their partners. This version of the Open Standards comes three years after the release of Version 1.0 and reflects how thinking has evolved over time as various conservation organizations within and outside of CMP have 100
