  • 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)

Other Site Characteristics

Two rocky mountains, densely vegetated with Oaks and other broadleaved trees.There is also Black Pine (P.nigra) forest and few abandoned fields. The area ischaracterised by Venetikos River and the abundance of cliffs.

4.2 Quality and importance

The presence of the Egyptian Vulture (Neophron percnopterus) whose breedingnumbers and distribution in Greece have been greatly reduced is very significant.Other birds of prey of interest include the Short-toed Eagle (Circaetus gallicus)and the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus). There is also a significant numberof breeding Black Storks (Ciconia nigra). Black Storks are threatened by the construction of small dams in mountain valleys, and the subsequent destruction of their feeding habitats (small riversand streams).
