QUALITY AND CONFORMANCE

Data quality and standards conformance

Tikvesh — the reserve covers 10,650 hectares in the southern part of Lake Tikvesh and the surrounding area. The reserve covers a total of 9,700 hectares of water surface and 950 hectares of land, where 39 birds of prey live. The reserve was declared as such on July 23, 1997. Ploče Litotelmi — the smallest reserve covers only 23.2 hectares and is located two kilometers from the village of Stracin, in the municipality of Kratovo. The site is important because of the shrimps that live in that area, some of which are endemic species. The reserve was declared on November 5, 2010.
