- 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
| This site is a Holocene delta. Its morphodynamic type, according to the decrease of river discharge in relation to the increase in wave energy, is classified as birdfoot. This means that the riverbeds look like the toes of a bird distinctly separated from one another. The provision of the mixed river materials is quite important. The dunes existing in the area can be divided into two zones. The first is composed of lowland almost flat dunes. A part of their surface covered by vegetation, and the rest by plant remnants and humus. The second zone has a higher altitude with dominant plants being Ammophila arenaria and Medicago maritima. Behind this area there is scrub vegetation (e.g. Vitex agnus castus, Quercus coccifera, Sarcopoterium spinosum etc). In order to limit the extension of this type of dunes and protect the nearby cultivated land an artificial wood composed of Pinus halepensis, Acacia sp., Nerium oleander, Gleditsia triacanthos etc was planted. Along the river banks the vegetation mainly consists of Phragmites australis, Typha spp., and Salix alba. |
4.2 Quality and importance
| The importance of this site is mainly due to the existing dunes, the aesthetic value of the artificial wood and the existing remnants of riparian forest stands along the river banks. The diversity of the local fauna is also notable. Several non-bird vertebrate taxa recorded in the area have been evaluated as follows: some of them are mentioned in Annex II of the Directive 92/43/EEC (see section 3.2). We have to underline here that according to Economidis (pers. comm.) the fish taxon Phoxinellus spp. is classified under the names Phoxinellus pleurobipunctatus which are valid Greek taxa (Economidis, 1991). Some other taxa are evaluated as Other Important Species (sections 3.3). The following taxa are eligible for motivation D since they are mentioned in the Greek Presidential Decree 67/1981: the lacertid lizard Lacerta trilineata, the colubrid snakes N. natrix and Coluber najadum. |
