Distinct population segment Clause Samples

A "distinct population segment" clause defines a specific subgroup within a larger species or population that is treated separately for regulatory or conservation purposes. This clause typically outlines the criteria used to identify such a segment, such as geographic isolation or unique genetic characteristics, and may specify how protections or management actions apply differently to this group compared to the broader population. Its core practical function is to allow tailored legal or policy measures that address the unique needs or risks faced by particular subpopulations, thereby improving the effectiveness of conservation or regulatory efforts.
Distinct population segment. A population unit that can be defined as geographically and/or genetically discrete and distinct for the purpose of listing consideration under the Endangered Species Act.
