N2K Group

2 Habitat types (Priority Index 2 > 30)

3 Species (Priority Index 2 > 20)

4 Grasslands Habitat types 6530* - Fennoscandian wooded meadows 6210* - Semi-natural dry grasslands and scrubland facies on calcareous substrates (Festuco-Brometalia) Fennoscandian lowland species-rich dry to mesic grasslands Molinia meadows on calcareous, peaty or clayey-silt-laden soils (Molinion caeruleae) Northern boreal alluvial meadows 6230* - Species-rich Nardus grasslands, on silicious substrates in mountain areas (*important orchid sites) 4030* - European dry heaths 6510* - Lowland hay meadows (Alopecurus pratensis, Sanguisorba officinalis) Fennoscandian wooded pastures Nordic alvar and precambrian calcareous flatrocks 1630* - Boreal Baltic coastal meadows Lepidoptera Reptiles Maculinea arion Coronella austriaca Parnassius mnemosyne Lopinga achine Plants Lycaena helle Botrychium simplex + birds

5 Forests Habitat types Coniferous forests on, or connected to, glaciofluvial eskers Fennoscandian hemiboreal natural old broad-leaved deciduous forests (Quercus, Tilia, Acer, Fraxinus or Ulmus) rich in epiphytes Western Taïga 91E0 - Alluvial forests with Alnus glutinosa and Fraxinus excelsior (Alno-Padion, Alnion incanae, Salicion albae) Coleoptera Plants Cucujus cinnaberinus Anemone patens (Pulsatilla patens) Boros schneideri Bryophyta Mammals Dicranum viride *Pteromys volans + birds

6 Wetlands Habitat types Alkaline fens 7160* - Fennoscandian mineral-rich springs and springfens Degraded raised bogs still capable of natural regeneration 7110* - Active raised bogs Transition mires and quaking bogs Mollusca Plants Vertigo angustior Liparis loeselii Vertigo geyeri Bryophyta Lepidoptera Meesia longiseta Euphydryas aurinia + birds Amphibians Triturus cristatus Bufo calamita

7 Fresh water Habitat types Oligotrophic to mesotrophic standing waters with vegetation of the Littorelletea uniflorae and/or of the Isoëto-Nanojuncetea Natural eutrophic lakes with Magnopotamion or Hydrocharition - type vegetation Hard oligo-mesotrophic waters with benthic vegetation of Chara spp. 3260* - Water courses of plain to montane levels with the Ranunculion fluitantis and Callitricho-Batrachion vegetation Mollusca Odonata Margaritifera margaritifera Aeshna viridis Unio crassus Fishes Annelida Coregonus albula Hirudo medicinalis Coregonus lavaretus Crustacea Plants Astacus astacus Najas flexilis + birds

8 Others Habitat types 2130* - Fixed coastal dunes with herbaceous vegetation ('grey dunes') 2320* - Dry sand heaths with Calluna and Empetrum nigrum (grasslands) Mammals Myotis nattereri Barbastalla barbastellus (forests) Myotis brandtii (forests) Phoca hispida botnica + birds
