- 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
- Motivation categories: IV, V: Annex Species (Habitats Directive), A: National Red List data; B: Endemics; C: International Conventions; D: other reasons

Other Site Characteristics
| The area of Moni Elonas and Charadra Leonidiou is a long gorge at the eastern side of Parnonas mountain range. Starting from sea level close to the village of Leonidio, it crosses the Elona's Monastery locality ending in the village of Kosmas at about 1000 m altitude. It is composed mainly of calcareous rocky ecosystems but at the higher parts Abies cephalonica thrives. |
4.2 Quality and importance
| Recently in the area of Moni Elonas and Charadra Leonidiou, some very interesting plant taxa have been found. Some of these are very important and very rare like Potentilla arcadiensis, for example, which shows the importance of the Greek mountains for the survival of very rare plant taxa. Also, in the calcareous rocky ecosystems Greek endemics prosper. Some of them have been recently described and four of them are exclusively endemic to this gorge and exist in very small populations, consequently being in danger of extinction. As concerns the fauna of this site, there is poor information. The jackal Canis aureus is a threatened species in Greece (category "Vulnerable"). Apart from this animal, all the vertebrate taxa listed in section 3.3 and marked with motivation C, are protected by the Bern Convention. The lizard Ophiomorus punctatissimus, and the snake Malpolon monspessulanus are also protected by the Greek Presidential Decree 67/1981 receiving motivation C for this reason. Similarly, the legless lizard Ophiomorus punctatissimus is additionally indicated by motivation D as it has the westernmost end of its distribution area in central-eastern Greece and Peloponnisos. The hare Lepus europaeus is marked with motivation D since it is generally rare in Greece. |
