  • 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

A stagnant freshwater lake, separated from Lake IJsselmeer (NL9803028) by xxx the closing of the Houtribdijk in 1975, and bordered to the east by the polders Oostelijk and Zuidelijk Flevoland (reclaimed in 1957 and 1968). It includes the Gouwzee (pSCI, NL2003017) with its rich Chara vegetation. The lake is connected to Lake Gooimeer in the south east (including a part of NL9802035), and is xxx also adjacent to Oostvaardersplassen (NL9802054) and Lepelaarsplassen (NL2000007) in the east, both situated in the Zuidelijk Flevoland polder.

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). For Markermeer: Species meeting the 1% threshold (breeding): Common Tern Sterna hirundo (1,2%); (non-breeding): Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo (2,6%), Eurasian Wigeon Anas [Mareca] penelope (2,3%), Gadwall Anas strepera (1,3%), Common Pochard Aythya ferina (1,7%), Tufted Duck Aythya fuligula (3,1%), Greater Scaup Aythya marila (2,6%), Smew Mergus albellus (4,4%), Common Coot Fulica atra (1,4%). For IJmeer: Species meeting the 1% threshold (non-breeding): Common Pochard Aythya ferina (1,1%), Tufted Duck Aythya fuligula (2,0%) xxx One of the five most important sites for (non-breeding): Smew Mergus albellus, Black Tern Chlidonias niger.The site regularly supports more than 20,000 wintering waterbirds. xxx This site plus NL990208 largely overlaps with IBA 038 (IBA2000).
