CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) is an agreement that regulates the international trade of endangered species, while the biodiversity treaty refers to the Convention on Biological Diversity, which focuses on conserving biological diversity, promoting sustainable use of its components, and equitable sharing of benefits arising from genetic resources. In essence, CITES specifically deals with trade of endangered species, while the biodiversity treaty has a broader scope encompassing all aspects of biodiversity conservation.
