Audit of Marsh Fritillary (Euphydryas aurinia) Habitat Management in Neath Port Talbot (3rd Party Data)

The Marsh fritillary Euphydryas aurinia is a UK Biodiversity Action Plan (UK BAP) priority species and has been listed by the Welsh Government as species of Principal Importance for the Conservation of Biological Diversity in Wales (Section 74 species Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000). This species in now confined to the south-western counties of England, south and west Wales, western Scotland and Ireland. This dataset is a MapInfo layer of the condition of habitat polygons for marsh fritillaries in Neath Port Talbot produced to help inform planning decisions. The purpose of this data capture was to ascertain the extent and condition of habitat capable of supporting populations of marsh fritillaries in order to provide scientifically-justified guidance to inform planning decisions. This dataset is of a high quality collected under contract by experienced surveyors.

Metadata Language: English

Lineage: Field surveys were undertaken. The boundary of the survey area was constructed on standard patterns imposed upon the landscape in relation to the location of known marsh fritillary sites. Marsh fritillary records are plotted on a map (preferably via GIS) and then circles of a one kilometre radius are drawn from each record. Where there are several records for a particular enclosure one circle is drawn from the centre point of these records. After plotting the record circles, overlapping circle areas are then combined (this can be done automatically on GIS) to produce the final landscape boundary. Once the landscape boundaries have been drawn the next stage is to undertake a preliminary sift by examining Phase One survey maps and plotting the location of examples of a variety of habitat categories. Within each enclosure patches were mapped according to the specific definitions and ideally drawn onto recent aerial photographs of a suitable scale (preferably 1:10,000 or better) in the field. Failing this 1:10,000 OS maps should be used.
