Description

Within the framework of the OPKK project ""Development of the System for Monitoring the Status of Species and Habitat Types" - GROUP 9: "Creation and Development of Monitoring Programs for herpetofauna with capacity building for stakeholders of the monitoring and reporting system", new data on the abundance and distribution of reptile and amphibian species of interest to the EU were gathered. These data were collected using methods described in the newly proposed monitoring programs, aiming to test their adequacy for long-term monitoring of species conservation status, with the addition of recent publicly available data. This dataset includes sporadic observations of various species over a period 2017-2023.
