Other Essential Criteria
Other essential criteria (also known as expert panel criteria) are based on non-uniform information sources and which may
rely more upon expert opinion than on quantitative data. These criteria are used to provide a "second-cut" determination of
biodiversity significance, which is then combined with the diagnostic criteria for an overall assessment of relative biodiversity
significance. A summary of the biodiversity status based upon the other essential criteria is provided in the following table.
