- PF: for the habitat types that can have a non-priority as well as a priority form (6210, 7130, 9430) enter "X" in the column PF to indicate the priority form.
- NP: in case that a habitat type no longer exists in the site enter: x (optional)
- Cover: decimal values can be entered
- Caves: for habitat types 8310, 8330 (caves) enter the number of caves if estimated surface is not available.
- Data quality: G = 'Good' (e.g. based on surveys); M = 'Moderate' (e.g. based on partial data with some extrapolation); P = 'Poor' (e.g. rough estimation)
3.2 Species referred to in Article 4 of Directive 2009/147/EC and listed in Annex II of Directive 92/43/EEC and site evaluation for them
- Group: A = Amphibians, B = Birds, F = Fish, I = Invertebrates, M = Mammals, P = Plants, R = Reptiles
- S: in case that the data on species are sensitive and therefore have to be blocked for any public access enter: yes
- NP: in case that a species is no longer present in the site enter: x (optional)
- Type: p = permanent, r = reproducing, c = concentration, w = wintering (for plant and non-migratory species use permanent)
- Unit: i = individuals, p = pairs or other units according to the Standard list of population units and codes in accordance with Article 12 and 17 reporting (see reference portal)
- Abundance categories (Cat.): C = common, R = rare, V = very rare, P = present - to fill if data are deficient (DD) or in addition to population size information
- Data quality: G = 'Good' (e.g. based on surveys); M = 'Moderate' (e.g. based on partial data with some extrapolation); P = 'Poor' (e.g. rough estimation); VP = 'Very poor' (use this category only, if not even a rough estimation of the population size can be made, in this case the fields for population size can remain empty, but the field "Abundance categories" has to be filled in)
3.3 Other important species of flora and fauna (optional)
- Group: A = Amphibians, B = Birds, F = Fish, Fu = Fungi, I = Invertebrates, L = Lichens, M = Mammals, P = Plants, R = Reptiles
- CODE: for Birds, Annex IV and V species the code as provided in the reference portal should be used in addition to the scientific name
- S: in case that the data on species are sensitive and therefore have to be blocked for any public access enter: yes
- NP: in case that a species is no longer present in the site enter: x (optional)
- Unit: i = individuals, p = pairs or other units according to the standard list of population units and codes in accordance with Article 12 and 17 reporting, (see reference portal)
- Cat.: Abundance categories: C = common, R = rare, V = very rare, P = present
- Motivation categories: IV, V: Annex Species (Habitats Directive), A: National Red List data; B: Endemics; C: International Conventions; D: other reasons

Other Site Characteristics
Le site des sources de l'Our et de l'Ensebach s'étend de Losheimergraben jusqu'à ce que l'Our passe la frontière belgo-allemande, au Sud de Manderfeld. L'altitude varie de 480 m à 650 m. |
4.2 Quality and importance
Le site est principalement constitué de milieux prairiaux de fauche et de zones humides. Près d'un quart de la superficie totale est recouvert de prés maigres de fauche de basse et haute altitude (6510, 6520).De moindre surface, des nardaies (6230*) et des mégaphorbiaies (6430) sont répartis dans tout le site. Les prairies humides d'intérêt patrimonial, bien que non visées directement par la Directive Habitats présente néanmoins une grande richesse biologique et des espèces rares et protégées, tels le trèfle d'eau, la sanguisorbe officinale, l'orchis tacheté et l'orchis à larges feuilles. Parmi les forêts visées par la Directive Habitats, la plus grande surface est couverte par la hêtraie à luzule blanche (9110), principalement dans le nord du site. C'est également au plus près des sources que se trouvent les fragments de landes humides (4010) et de landes sèches (4030). Ces dernières offrent de plus une belle station de lycopode en massue.Le site accueille également des lambeaux de chênaie-boulaies à molinie (9190) et de forêts relevant du Carpinion betuli (9160). L'Our et ses affluents (3260) sont bordés partiellement par des forêts riveraines, habitat prioritaire. Pour compléter la riche variété du site des sources de l'Our et de l'Ensebach, il faut encore citer les nombreux plans d'eau dont certains sont d'intérêt communautaire (3130).Tous ces habitats, Natura 2000 ou non, fournissent des lieux de reproduction, de nourrissage et/ou d'hivernage pour une série d'espèces, comme le chabot, la cigogne noire, le cuivré de la bistorte, le martin pêcheur d'Europe, le pic noir, la pie-grièche écorcheur,… |
