dunes
Shifting dunes along the shoreline with Ammophila arenaria. The coverage rate of vegetation can reach the 50-70%.
Conservation Status Key Indicators:
Range: the habitat may be of areal (small extension), linear or point type
Structure and functions: vegetation coverage; area, shape, and connections among patches
Typical Species: Ammophila arenaria
grasslands
Semi-natural grasslands and scrubland facies on calcareous substrates. One of the richest and most present habitats, its existence is strongly connected with grazing.
Conservation Status Key Indicators:
Range: the habitat is of areal type
Structure and functions: vegetation coverage; area, shape, and connections among patches
Typical Species: target species at regional level (Important Orchid Sites)
forests
Apennine beech forests with Taxus and Iles. This habitat is characterized by a stratification of
different levels of vegetation at different heights.
Conservation Status Key Indicators:
Range: the habitat is of areal type
Structure and functions: vegetation coverage; size and distance among patches, dendritic parameters
Typical Species: Fagus sylvatica, Taxus baccata, Ilex aquifolium
screes
Alpine screes. Fixed and mobile screes with pioneering and persistent vegetation.
Conservation Status Key Indicators:
Range: the habitat may be of areal, much less frequently, linear or point type
Structure and functions: vegetation coverage; size and distance among patches; debris mobility
Typical Species: target species at regional level
