| Σχόλιο για τις αξίες | The area has the following endemic species of fish: Scardinius graecus, endemic to the lakes; Barbus graecus endemic to the region; Rutilus beoticus, Rutilus ylikiensis endemic to Greece. Barbus graecus and Rutilus ylikiensis are considered locally threatened. Here lives a genetically differentiated population of the dice snace Natrix tesselata. Kifissos river is an important site for the presence of otters, Lutra lutra. The caves around the lake Yliki have an endemic species of Coleoptera, Laemostenus vignai. In the area around Orhomenos (Dionysos) an endemic species of Orthoptera Dolichopoda vandeli is present. The two lakes and the rivers Voiotikos Kifissos and Melas form a continuous system of inland waters. As a wetland the lakes Yliki and Paralimni are nowadays less important although they are considered EC important bird areas and have some raptor species as well. It is also the southernmost nesting area of storks in Greece. The lake Paralimni was completely drained in 1993 due to the draught and a significant part of it is presently cultivated. The remaining underground water is pumped off for the irrigation of the nearby cultivations and also used for the water supply of Chalkida. Provided that the waters of Paralimni will be left to recover and resume their former status the area could still retain its previous significance for migratory birds. Lake Yliki is used for the water supply of Athens and Paralimni for the water supply of Chalkida.OTHER IMPORTANT SPECIES WITH MOTIVATION DBirds: Charadrius morinellius: Belongs to the CORINE endangered birds. It is also included in the Red Data Book of threatened vertebrates of Greece.NOTEThe population of Phoxinellus spp. of this site belongs to the species P. beoticus. According to some authors (Ladiges & Vogt, 1979; Economidis, 1991) this species belongs to the genus Pseudophoxinus.According to Ladiges & Vogt (1979) Rutilus rubilio includes R. ylikiensis as a synonym. However, according to other authors (Economidis, 1991), R. ylikiensis is a valid species. |

| Τρωτότητα | Apart from the impacts and threats mentioned in section 6.1, emphasis should be put to the stress the area is under, due to the excessive irrigation works and the constant expansion of the nearby villages. A significant problem is also the run-off of chemicals and fertilizers used in the surrounding agricultural land. Kifissos shows a trend towards eutrophication. The lakes have suffered since 1992 from a severe fall of their water level because of draught. |
