List of results
- Traits:Extirpated + (Species that were present but have been declared extinct.)
- Traits:Absent + (Species that were reported at some time to be present but were not recorded subsequently are reported to be ‘Absent’.)
- Traits:TypeIII + (Species tolerant to excess organic matter … Species tolerant to excess organic matter enrichment. These species may occur under normal conditions, but their populations are stimulated by organic richment (slight unbalance situations). They are surface deposit-feeding species, as tubicolous spionids.t-feeding species, as tubicolous spionids.)
- Traits:TypeI + (Species very sensitive to organic enrichment and present under unpolluted conditions (initial state). They include the specialist carnivores and some deposit-feeding tubicolous polychaetes.)
- Traits:Occurrence Not specified + (Species which may be listed as alien or introduced but whose occurrence has not been specified.)
- Traits:Origin uncertain + (Species whose biological status is uncertain i.e. it is uncertain if the species is native or alien to the location.)
- Traits:Invasiveness Uncertain + (Species whose invasiveness is uncertain.)
- Traits:Origin unknown + (Species whose origins cannot be verified OR a species whose origin has not been specified in the source information.)
- Traits:Introduction unverified + (Species whose presence is uncertain, maybe reported as present anecdotally but not confirmed.)
