  • Nature reserve
of 5 stars

Actions

Description

The area is varied and has a variety of habitats, which creates good conditions for various lichens, mosses, fungi and wood-living insects.
Påterudsskogen has a high proportion of aspen, but there are also other species of deciduous trees, mainly birch. The nature reserve was established to preserve valuable, deciduous, old coniferous forest.

Animals and plants

Valuable, older, hardwood-rich coniferous forest with important structures such as dead wood, deciduous trees and old rough trees make the area an important habitat for e.g. white-backed woodpecker and species that have the same requirements for their surroundings. Due to burning, the area is rich in aspen. There are several threatened species and signal species in the area, including the three-toed woodpecker, the greater flat-backed beetle, brown-powdered needle lichen, lung lichen, wood moss and candelabra fungus.
