Popis

The "Auf dem großen Scheid bei Bendorf" nature reserve in Rhineland-Palatinate is vital for protecting rare habitats. It preserves and develops highly endangered calcareous small-sedge meadows and large-sedge meadows. The reserve also safeguards endangered moist grassland communities, including wet tall herbaceous communities, marsh marigold meadows, purple moor-grass meadows, and moderately moist tall oat-grass meadows. Particularly important are the calcareous grasslands, which serve as crucial retreats for numerous threatened animal and plant species. Here, endangered bird, insect, sedge, and orchid species, among others, find a secure living space. This area significantly contributes to maintaining the region's biological diversity.
