1 Session 3. Monitoring and reporting focused on animal species. Kostiushyn V. 1

2 Implementation of Habitats Directive - Zoology 2

3 In 2011, the Commission in agreement with Member States has revised the reporting procedure and frequency streamlining the reporting under Art.12 of the Birds Directive with the reporting on conservation status under Art.17 of the Habitats Directive (from 3 to 6 years+ synchronization) The first national reports about status and trends of habitats and species in the EU for period were assessed in the course of 2014 on EU-level, results were summarized and analyzed. Implementation of Habitats Directive - Zoology 3

4 New reporting format includes two parts: 1. A general reporting format, where some general progress reporting is retained but in a simplified manner, including basic facts and web-links to other sources for detailed information about e.g. legal transpositions and research or work done for the protection, management and use of habitats and species populations. Textual reporting is kept to a minimum. 2. A format for reporting on the size and trend of individual species populations and distributions, including sections for reporting on the main threats and pressures affecting species for which SPAs/SAC have been classified, as well as their coverage by the SPA/SAC network and conservation measures taken for them.

19 How do we monitor HD animal species in Slovakia? It is similar like management plan mapping, but it needs some extra parameters to be collected - Elaboration of 146 monitoring methodologies (web link, example) - Designation of permanent monitoring localities (map link) - Development of information and monitoring system with 25 different data entry forms (web link) - Development of field mapping logistic (web link, example) experts took part in field monitoring of animal species field monitoring visits done during Budget for biological component 2,4 mil. Euros (habitats and species together) Implementation of Habitats Directive - Zoology

28 Bird Monitoring Schemes in Poland Launched in 2007, the Bird Monitoring Scheme is part of the State Environmental Monitoring Programme supervised by the Chief Inspectorate of Environmental Protection. The programme is funded entirely by the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management. The prime objective of the programme is the monitoring of population status of the highest possible number of bird species with careful attention given to special protection areas for birds in the Natura 2000 network. Implementation of Habitats Directive - Zoology 28

29 Bird Monitoring Schemes in Poland Monitoring of Birds of Poland (MBP) is an extensive project, which includes 21 separate monitoring programmes designed to collect data on single species or groups of species, during both breeding, migration and wintering periods. In total, MBP covers 170 species, among which 150 are monitored during breeding season (65% of breeding avifauna), 26 in winter and 3 during migrations. The state of avian populations is characterized by two basic parameters: abundance (absolute or relative numbers, i.e., indices) and occupancy (range size). For selected species, reproduction indices are collected as well. MBP covers nearly 20% of the Polish territory in recent years, and over 800 highly skilled observers, both professionals and amateurs, take part in fieldwork. Each scheme employs monitoring methods appropriate to particular species or groups of species. Implementation of Habitats Directive - Zoology 29
