  • 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

Agrafa is the southern limit of the Pindos massif. It is a series of high peaks, covered mostly by Abies borii-regis and other conifers. In the alpine zone there are extended pastures.

4.2 Quality and importance

This site is very important for birds of prey such as the Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus), the Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) and the Short-toed Eagle (Circaetus gallicus). It is also important for the Chough (Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax) a corvid whose distribution in Greece is very limited and its numbers are declining.
