fallowing) cultivated crops with little or no chemical fertilisation or pesticide application.Faunal and floral quality and diversity depend on the intensity of agricultural use

and on the presence of borders of natural vegetation between fields.N13 Ricefields I1.4 : Inundated

or inundatablecroplands,including rice

fields

Inundated or inundatable fields used for the cultivation of rice ([Oryza sativa]).When not too heavily treated, they may provide substitution habitats for somewetland faunal elements, in particular, birds, including ducks, rails and herons.

N16 Broad-leaveddeciduous woodland

G1 : Broadleaveddeciduouswoodland

Woodland, forest and plantations dominated by summer-green non-coniferous treesthat lose their leaves in winter. Includes woodland with mixed evergreen anddeciduous broadleaved trees, provided that the deciduous cover exceeds that of

evergreens. Excludes mixed forests (G4) where the proportion of conifers exceeds25%.

N17 Coniferouswoodland

G3 : Coniferouswoodland

Woodland, forest and plantations dominated by coniferous trees, mainly evergreen([Abies], [Cedrus], [Picea], [Pinus], [Taxus], Cupressaceae) but also deciduous[Larix]. Excludes mixed forests (G4) where the proportion of broadleaved trees

exceeds 25%.

N18 Evergreen woodland G2 : Broadleavedevergreen

woodland

Temperate forests dominated by broad-leaved sclerophyllous or lauriphyllousevergreen trees, or by palms. They are characteristic of the Mediterranean and

warm-temperate humid zones.

N19 Mixed woodland G4 : Mixed

deciduous andconiferouswoodland

Forest and woodland of mixed broad-leaved deciduous or evergreen and coniferous

trees of the nemoral, boreal, warm-temperate humid and mediterranean zones.They are mostly characteristic of the boreonemoral transition zone between taigaand temperate lowland deciduous forests, and of the montane level of the majormountain ranges to the south. Neither coniferous, nor broadleaved species accountfor more than 75% of the crown cover. Deciduous forests with an understorey ofconifers or with a small admixture of conifers in the dominant layer are included in

unit G1. Conifer forests with an understorey of deciduous trees or with a smalladmixture of deciduous trees in the dominant layer are included in unit G3.

G1.C : Highlyartificialbroadleaveddeciduousforestry

plantations

Cultivated deciduous broad-leaved tree formations planted for the production ofwood, composed of exotic species, of native species out of their natural range, or ofnative species planted in clearly unnatural stands, often as monocultures.

G2.8 : Highlyartificialbroadleaved

Cultivated evergreen broad-leaved tree formations planted for the production ofwood, composed of exotic species, of native species out of their natural range, or ofnative species planted in clearly unnatural stands, often as monocultures.

Woods, often riparian, formed by palm trees of the Mediterranean and

Macaronesian zones, [Phoenix theophrasti] of Crete and western Anatolia, and[Phoenix canariensis] of the Canary Islands.

E7.3 Dehesa A characteristic landscape of the southwestern quadrant of the Iberian peninsula in

which crops, pasture land or Mediterranean scrub, in juxtaposition or rotation, areshaded by a fairly closed to very open canopy of native oaks, [Quercus suber],

[Quercus rotundifolia], [Quercus pyrenaica], [Quercus faginea]. It is an importanthabitat of raptors, including the threatened Iberian endemic eagle [Aquilaadalberti], of the crane [Grus grus], of large insects and their predators and of theendangered Iberian lynx [Lynx pardinus].

I : Regularly or

recentlycultivatedagricultural,horticultural anddomestic habitats

Habitats maintained solely by frequent tilling or arising from recent abandonment of

previously tilled ground such as arable land and gardens. Includes tilled groundsubject to inundation. Excludes lawns and sports fields (E2.6), shrub orchards (FB),tree nurseries (G5.7) and tree-crop plantations (G3.F etc.).
