- 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
Il sito comprende lintero massiccio del versante valdostano del Monte Rosa con le testate delle valli di Ayas e Gressoney e larea di crinale tra le conche di Valtournenche, del Breuil e del Vallone delle Cime bianche in Val dAyas. Presenza di vasti apparati glaciali caratterizzati da un notevole sviluppo di depositi morenici. Litologie dominate dai micascisti albitici retromorfosati dellinsieme pregranitico del massiccio del Monte Rosa. La zona delle Cime Bianche è caratterizzata da una morfologia di tipo carsico dovuto ai substrati calcarei del Trias della Zona Piemontese. |
4.2 Quality and importance
Il versante meridionale del Monte Rosa è di particolare interesse per gli elevati limiti altitudinali raggiunti dalle Fanerogame: sono state segnalate oltre 60 entità floristiche (tra specie e varietà) che raggiungono qui i massimi limiti altitudinali nelle Alpi. Di queste superano i 4000 metri le seguenti entità: Ranunculus glacialis (fino a 4245 m), Poa laxa (fino a 4245 m), Androsace alpina, Saxifraga oppositifolia, Saxifraga moschata.
Tra gli arbusti raggiungono quote eccezionali: Juniperus nana (3570 m), Vaccinium uliginosum ( 3550-3630 m), Vaccinium myrtillus ( 3000-3200 m), Vaccinium vitis-idaea ( 3000-3200 m), Rhododendron ferrugineum (3000 m).
Sito Corine. Zona transfrontaliera per le linee migratorie dello Stambecco che mettono in contatto popolazioni di Ayas, Gressoney con Alagna e Macugnaga e da qui in Svizzera.
La zona delle Cime Bianche è stata segnalata dalla Società Botanica Italiana tra i biotopi italiani di rilevante interesse vegetazionale e meritevoli di conservazione. |
