- 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
| Substantial part of the site is covered with the beech forests, in some places the forest of a primeval type can be found. The rest of the site consists of an agricultural land (pastures, meadows) mostly intensively managed.
The site includes a part of lowland and the whole Vihorlat mountain range. Vihorlatské vrchy Mts. are a typical example of a volcanic origin.
Basement is built of andesites and in the northwestern part also of calcites and dolomites. The soils are the andosols, cambisols and in the northwestern part also the pseudogleys.
Percentage within biogeographic regions: Alpine 91.6%, Pannonic 8.4% |
4.2 Quality and importance
| Site is one of the three most important areas in Slovakia for nesting of Circaetus gallicus, Strix uralensis, Dendrocopos medius and is one of the five areas for nesting of Otus scops. Regularly nest here more than 1% of national population of Aquila pomarina, Bonasa bonasia, Bubo bubo, Caprimulgus europaeus, Ciconia nigra, Crex crex, Dendrocopos leucotos, Dryocopus martius, Ficedula albicollis, Ficedula parva, Jynx torquilla, Lanius collurio, Lullula arborea, Pernis apivorus, Picus canus, Sylvia nisoria, Coturnix coturnix, Muscicapa striata, Phoenicurus phoenicurus, Saxicola torquata and Streptopelia turtur. |
