• Traits:Native - Non-endemic  + (Species that is native to an area but is not endemic to it i.e. a species that has a wide native range.)
• Traits:Native  + (Species that is native to the country or sea area.)
• 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.)
