Important bird areas
The large managed coastal meadows at Hovby are important habitats for many bird species, and several endangered and managed waders and shelducks, such as curlew, ruff and dunlin, nest here. The reserve's old-fashioned agricultural landscape is also home to the common toad, a number of red-listed species of ground beetle, and the very rare and red-listed snails, the greater agate snail and the limestone bog snail.

Many of the plants that make up the flora of the salt meadows are also dependent on mowing and grazing animals in order not to be outcompeted by fast-growing species. Hovby meadows are home to, among other things, meadowsweet, hay rattle, hay flower and honey flowers, as well as the orchids meadow knapweed and meadow lilies.
