recorded () and expected () distribution in Britain and Ireland
(see below) To assess the sensitivity of the biotope, the
sensitivity of component species is reviewed. Those species that
are considered to be particularly indicative of the sensitivity
of the biotope, and for which research has been undertaken in
detail are shown below (see selection criteria). The biology of
other component species of the biotope is also taken into
account wherever information is known to the researcher.
