ASG Task Forces (TF) comprise groups of ASG members that have a specific taxonomic or thematic focus (different from the ACAP-focused Working Groups) and who wish to consolidate efforts and build knowledge on their respective study groups or themes. TFs are led by one or more TF Coordinators, who oversee the establishment and internal coordination of the respective group.
Current active Task Force are the Atelopus Task Force, which works on the science-based transboundary and multipartite conservation of Atelopus sp, and the Eastern Asian Salamander Task Force, the goal of which is to understand and identify actions to address the threats to Caudata in the region, through scientific research and the implementation of science-based conservation plans, at the regional or species level.
