• 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)

Other Site Characteristics

Xeric rocky area with cliffs suitable for breeding of birds of prey. Open habitats and mosaics are one of the most important nesting area of Olive-tree Warbler in Croatia. Forest habitats are represented by young submediterranean forests and scrubs. Lithostratigraphic units represented in this area are: rudist limestones (cenomanian-maastricht - K21-6), limestone and dolomite (lower cretaceous - K1), flysch sediments (middle and upper eocene - E2, 3), limestones and dolomites (upper jurassic - J3). Soils: shallow and medium deep terra rossa, brown soil on limestone, limestone and dolomite black soil, rocky ground. Mountain massifs Kozjak and Mosor were formed by Alpine orogenesis; many speleological objects and other karst formations; this area has a complex structure of morphogenetic types of relief and complex orographic structure as a result of dynamic geotectonic relations, hydrogeological conditions, climate and anthropogenic influences.

4.2 Quality and importance

- Information on birds population sizes was provided by the Institute for Ornithology (Zavod za ornitologiju, 2013). Numbers presented refer to estimations or exact data based as much as possible on recent surveys (data provided by the Institute staff and their field-work associates) - SPA Mosor, Kozjak i Trogirska zagora is especially important for breeding birds of prey. It holds 8% of national population of Aquila chrysaetos, 7,5% of Falco peregirnus and 3,7% of Circaetus gallicus. Falco biarmicus was registered in the area but breeding was not confirmed (Tutiš et al., 2013) - SPA Mosor, Kozjak i Trogirska zagora is one of the two most important breeding sites for Hippolais olivetorum in Croatia, holding 8% of national population (the other site being the SPA Ravni kotari with 12% of national population)
