Site Description
Litovelské Pomoraví is a uniquely well-preserved floodplain of the Morava River which encompasses complexes of close-to-nature floodplain forests in the Upper Morava River valley. The anastomosing river system (a meandering primary channel branching into a complex network of auxiliary streams, both permanent and periodic) constitutes a floodplain covering approximately 100 km2. The biotopes of periodic river pools are inhabited by distinctive crustacean communities which include a number of critically endangered species. The floodplain encompasses a diverse mosaic of wetlands, natural alluvial meadows and various types of floodplain forest biotopes, including transitions into oak-hornbeam forests and thermophilic oak forests on ...
