Short Description / Distinguishing Characteristics
European Interest
Please mark with "X" for which of the following criteria the species or habitat is proposed (as interpreted from the guideline 1 in the Bern Convention’s Recommendation 56 (1997), and also indicated in subparagraphs of Article 1 g of the Habitats Directive)
£ Endangered, except those species whose natural range is marginal in that territory and which are not endangered or vulnerable in the Western Palaearctic Region
£ Vulnerable, i.e. believed likely to move into the endangered category in the near future if the causal factors continue operating
£ Rare, with small populations that are not at present endangered or vulnerable but at risk. The species is located within restricted geographical areas or are thinly scattered over a more extensive range
£ Endemic and requiring attention by reason or the specific nature of its habitat or the potential impact of its exploitation on its habitat or the potential impact of its conservation status
Remarks:
as described in Recommendation 56 (1997) account will be taken of the category of threat, the vulnerability of the species to changes in its habitat, its particular link with a threatened habitat, the trends and variations in population level and its vulnerability to a possible non sustainable use. Account will be taken of whether the species is declining in the central area of its distribution, or it is only threatened in the border of its range.
For species only: ecological role (as described in Recommendation 56 (1997): account will be taken of the ecological role of the species, such as their position or role in the food chain (i.e. raptors, insectivorous species such as bats), their structural role in ecosystems (i.e. corals, heathlands) or the fact that endangered species or endangered ecosystems may be highly dependent on them (i.e. marine phanerogams like Posidonia oceanica) or risk to become threatened by their exploitation (like the mollusc Lithophaga lithophaga).
Geographical distribution
In addition, include maps with the distribution of the species or habitat (GIS format preferred), with reference to scale and projection.
- in the country:
- in the Pan-European region:
- in other parts of the world:
Further comments concerning the geographical distribution :(e.g. known subtypes, regional varieties, loci typici)
Estimated population size and trends (guideline 1 from Rec. 56 (1997):
(Indicate the situation in the country(ies) and, as far as possible, European wide and world wide)
(according to EEA guidelines for indicating population data)
Reasons for decline or threats:
Conservation status: (within country, region, pan-European level, etc …)
Important references / literature / publications:
(especially those relevant for the taxonomy, conservation status and geographical distribution)
Further remarks: (any additional important information not given above, relevant for evaluating the proposal)
