Information provided in the field 2.7.5: Reported additionnal information: ||
->Range: Range of the habitat type was calculated on the basis of its mapped distribution
and a gap distance equal to 10 km. ||
->Coverage: The area covered by the habitat type is reported on the basis of the area of
polygons including pure or mixed occurrences of the habitat type. For the polygons with mixed occurrence of the habitat type, the area of the other habitat types within the polygons has been excluded. ||
->HabCondition: The estimation of the habitat type’s area in good or not-good condition has been based on the results of sampling concerning the assessment of the conservation status of structure and functions per habitat type. ||
->Future: Future prospects for the range and area were estimated by best expert judgment, while for structure and function on the basis of the pressures and threats recorded in a limited number of sampling plots (42) and the algorithm cited in Tsiripidis et al. (2018). ||
->Conclusion: The difference in the Conservation status of the habitat type from the previous reporting period is due to the fact that structure and functions were revealed in inadequate conservation status on the basis of the sampling conducted during the period 2013-2018 ||

->HabCondition: Habitat 5330 - Thermo-Mediterranean and pre-desert scrub is frequent in the Maltese Islands, particularly along dry valley sides known in Maltese as 'widien'. The most representitive species of this habitat is Euphorbia dendroides, which characterises many sites. Periploca angustifolia is also present, but is rarely a dominant species. Another species, Euphorbia melitensis dominates various ‘spiny spurge’ phrygana communities, but although classed under this habitat type in the Interpretation Manual, it is probably a phrygana community, sharing species assemblages with the similar habitat types, particularly 5410 (Anthyllis hermanniae phrygana), with which it often ‘co-occurs’. ||
->Future: N/A ||
->Conclusion: The change in the overall conservation status is primarily due to change in the methodology used for assessing the ‘Structure and Functions’ parameter of the habitat. Taking into consideration the recommended use of an indicative value of 90% of the habitat type area in ‘good’ condition as a threshold to assess the parameter as ‘Favourable’, lead to an ‘Unfavourable’ assessment of both the parameter per se and the overall assessment. ||

->Other: The data in this report has been mostly updated through habitat surveys carried out by the Environment and Resources Authority in 2017 and 2018. This exercise has enabled the assessment of the distribution and habitat condition with considerable accuracy. Field surveys were also complemented with desk studies, focussing on orthophoto analysis, and additional ground truthing, where possible. In this regard, the Authority has acquired drones with the aim to facilitate and assist future monitoring and surveying of all Annex I habitats.
