| Σχόλιο για τις αξίες | The island seems to be a very important biotope for endemic plants and for plants with low dispersal of the Southern Aegean. Two strictly endemic species of the island have been identified until now; however, there are strong suggestions for the presence of more. Also important are the species Allium tardans (endemic of Crete and Carpathos) and Asperula tournefortii. The rabbit population belongs to the endemic subspecies Oryctolagus cuniculus cnossicus, whilst there is also an endemic population of the lizard Podarcis erhardii schieberi. This is an important site for breeding seabirds and species associated with coastal cliffs. Species of concern include: Falco eleonorae. Monkseals are laso often seen by local fishermen around the island.NOTES: Capra aegagrus is introduced to the site, thus it is not included in section 3.2.c. (Annex II species), but in section 3.3. (other important species).OTHER IMPORTANT SPECIES WITH MOTIVATION DAsperula tournefortii, Muscari dionysiacum are protected by the Greek Law (Presidential Decree 67/81) and are included in the IUCN Red Data List (1993) in the category of threatened plants characterized as "rare".Cynara cornigera is a species with distribution in S. Greece, the Aegean and Cyprus. Helichrysum orientale is a species found only in W Turkey out of Greece. |

| Τρωτότητα | The public and private management in the past seem to be the most important danger for the island. There is an increasing touristic interest, which, for the moment, leads to a progressive unplanned habitation of the southern coast, but tends to develop to heavy touristic exploitation in the future. Problems have also arisen from the faulty forestry department management concerning the wild goat population of the island. |
