- 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

Other Site Characteristics
| The site consists mainly of crystalline-schist bed rock with igneous rocks (granites). This bed rock consists of metamorphic (crystalline) limestones of the marble series. The soil texture is sand-clay with adequate depth and fertility. In contrast, in the shrublands derived from degraded forests, the soil is poor. On the rocky limestone areas the forest cover is sparse and soil occurs only in crevices. |
4.2 Quality and importance
| This mountain has a concentration of many rare plants for Greece with restricted distribution. The rare plant communities on the cliffs of the peaks of Mount Falakro and the grasslands of the area are of great importance. They also form a wide multi-colour garden during May and June. There are rich forests of coniferous and broad leaved species on the lower altitudes. Concerning the fauna the quality of the site is indicated by the occurrence of the invertebrate Maculinea alcon which is refered to IUCN Conservation Monitoring Centre 1988. 1988 IUCN Red List of Threatened Animals, the invertebrate Neptis sappho which is refered to Koomen P., van Helsdingen P.J. 1993. Listing of biotopes in Europe according to their significance for invertebrates. Council of Europe, the invertebrates Agrodiaetus nephohiptamenos, Everes decoloratus which are refered to Heath J. 1981. Threatened Rhopalocera (butterflies) of Europe. Council of Europe, the invertebrates Agrodiaetus admetus, Leptidea duponcheli, Agrodiaetus ripartii which are refered to the Presidential Decree 67/1981 and the invertebrate Pseudochazara orestes which is the southern edge of extension.Concerning the wild growning plants the quality of the site is indicated by the occurrence of other important taxa. Among them, 2 taxa are greek endemics, one taxon is protected by the EC Environment Legislation (1992), 12 taxa (Androsace villosa, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Dactylorhiza sambucina, Dianthus petraeus ssp. orbelicus, Epipactis atrorubens, Gentiana cruciata, Haberlea rhodopensis, Nigritella nigra, Orchis ustulata, Paronychia rechingeri, Poa thessala, Saxifraga ferdinandi-coburgi) are protected by the Greek Presidental Decree (67/1981), 8 taxa (Hypericum rochelii, Minuartia doerfleri, Peucedanum officinale, Satureja pilosa, Saxifraga stribrnyi, Thesium alpinum, Valeriana montana, Valeriana officinalis ssp. collina) are rare in Greece and/or reach their extreme distribution limits in Northern Greece, 28 taxa are Balkan endemics (Asperula aristata ssp. nestia, Laserpitium siler ssp. laeve, Pedicularis orthantha, Sideritis scardica, Silene balcanica, Silene fabarioides, Silene radicosa ssp. radicosa) and 2 taxa (Saxifraga sempervivum, Thymus thracicus) find their main distribution area in the Balkan Peninsula extending also to Turkey. |
