Back to top3.1 Habitat types present on the site and assessment for them
No habitat types are reported for the site
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)

Other Site Characteristics
| An extensive area of shallow lakes, pools, reedbeds, Salix woodland and grassland which has developed on a polder (Zuidelijk Flevoland, reclaimed in 1968), having been spared from cultivation. It is situated xxx between the cities of Lelystad and Almere, along the west dyke of the polder where it adjoins SPA Markermeer & IJmeer (NL9803029). |
4.2 Quality and importance
| The following data refer to the period 1993-1997 (data in paragraph 3.2a-b refer te period 1999-2003). Major site for marshland birds and migratory waterfowl. The site is the main roost for geese Anser from feeding areas in xxx Flevoland, and is the most important moulting area for Anser anser xxx in north-west Europe. xxx Species meeting the 1% threshold (breeding): Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo (8%); Great Bittern Botaurus stellaris (1%); Eurasian Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia (18%); (non-breeding): Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo (2%); Eurasian Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia (14%); Greylag Goose Anser anser (8%); Barnacle Goose Branta leucopsis (2%); Gadwall Anas strepera (5%); Common Teal Anas crecca (2%); Northern Pintail Anas acuta (1%); Northern Shoveler Anas clypeata (10%); Common Pochard Aythya ferina (2%); Tufted Duck Aythya fuligula (2%); Avocet Recurvirostra avosetta (3%). xxx One of the five most important sites for (breeding): Great Bittern Botaurus stellaris, Great Egret Egretta alba, Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia, Western Marsh-Harrier Circus aeruginosus, Northern Harrier Circus cyaneus, Spotted Crake Porzana porzana, Bluethroat Luscinia svecica; (non-breeding): Great Egret Egretta alba, Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia, Whooper Swan Cygnus cygnus, Avocet Recuvirostra avocetta.The site regularly supports more than 20,000 wintering waterbirds: Greylag Goose up to 62,000 birds. xxx Site largely overlaps with IBA 066 (IBA2000) |
