  • 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

  • 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)

N0198.48
N041.42
N050.10

Total Habitat Cover

Other Site Characteristics

La unidad morfológica predominante en la línea de costa del espacio son las playas, constituidas por arenas. En algunos tramos, estas playas presentan afloramientos rocosos superficiales que las caracterizan, dando lugar a conjuntos de rocas a modo de islotes en el mar.

4.2 Quality and importance

Espacio importante para los Hábitats de Interés Comunitario 1110, 1120* y 1170. La presencia de praderas de Posidonia oceanica son especialmente relevantes por estar situadas en el límite occidental del área de distribución natural del hábitat 1120*. También es relevante la presencia de fondos con dominancia de gorgonias en zonas donde la luz llega de forma atenuada y sobre sustratos duros (HIC 1170).
