• 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

• 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

The site covers the coastal area from Roukounas to the bay Prasies and Kalamos peninsula. It is the only area in the island with limestones, in contrast to the rest of the island, where the main geological components are volcanic rocks. Kalamos peninsula is characterized by sea cliffs, inland cliffs with chasmophytic vegetation, chasms, screes, caves, and small gorges; in the surrounding marine area there are also submarine and coastal caves. In the area of Monastiri there are an important archaeological site and a monastery. The coastal area of Roukounas is characterized by sand dunes, springs, and locally restricted cultivations. In general, the site as a whole, can be characterized as a typical Cycladian ecosystem.

4.2 Quality and importance

The quality and importance of the site result from the following elements: 1) It is an area of great aesthetic value (especially the gulf of Vitali and the area around Arnas village); 2) The site contains a fair number of habitat types and biotopes. 3) There is a high degree of flora and fauna (especially avifauna) endemism; 4) There exist rare plant species as well as plant communities with very distribution in the Aegean area; 5) There are important birds refugees on cliffs; 6) The site is naturally protected because of the steep rocks and cliffs and the lack of roads that make the area difficult to access, so it is isolated from the main touristic areas of Andros island.
