1 CROATIA - Sites of Community Interest (SCIs): reserve list for habitat types of annex I and species of annex II of the EU Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC (update February 2016) This document provides an overview of all relevant Habitats Directive features (species of annex II /habitat types of annex I of the Directive), as listed on the Reference list for Croatia, for which the Commission is concluding that the Natura 2000 network of sites proposed by this member state is not yet sufficient. This document is normally being updated annually, based on the Natura 2000 database submitted by the member state in the preceding year. The current update is based on the Natura 2000 data that Croatia submitted in late Species/habitat types for which the Commission is concluding that the Natura 2000 network in Croatia is sufficient are not listed below. For a full list of all relevant species and habitat types occurring in Croatia, please consult the Reference List: Glossary: SUF (Sufficient): the occurrence of the species /habitat type is sufficiently well covered by the current SCIs; no further sites are required. (Insufficient minor): no new SCIs are required, but this species /habitat type should be added to the list of qualifying features on one or several Standard Data Forms of sites that have already been proposed for other species /habitat types. IN MOD (Insufficient moderate): one or several additional SCIs (or extensions of SCIs) must be proposed to achieve a sufficient coverage of the Natura 2000 network for this species/ habitat type (IN MOD GEO means additional site(s) are only required in a specifically named region). IN MAJ (Insufficient major): none of the sites where this species/ habitat type occurs have been proposed as SCIs so far; in order to achieve a sufficient coverage of the Natura 2000 network for the species /habitat type, one or several of these new SCIs must therefore be proposed. SR (Scientific reserve): further research is required to identify the most appropriate SCIs for this species / habitat type (research on identifying the most appropriate sites, on clarifying the correspondence of a habitat present to the definition of Annex I habitats, etc. ). SR Ref List (Scientific reserve on the Reference List): the regular occurrence of this species /habitat type is still uncertain and needs to be confirmed Delete from Ref List (delete from the Reference List): this species /habitat type is not naturally occurring and will be removed from the Reference List; no sites are required for this species /habitat type. 1

2 CD (Correction of data): the information about this species /habitat type in the Standard Data Form needs to be corrected / completed / deleted. Codes can be combined, for example IN MOD/ CD would indicate that additional sites are required and that the existing proposals need correcting or completing. 2
