COMMISSION NOTICE Guidelines providing a common understanding of the term ‘environmental damage’ as defined in Article 2 of Directive 2004/35/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on environmental liability with regard to the prevention and remedying of environmental damage · European Union

| 89. | With regard to non-bird species, the definition covers animal and plant species listed in Annexes II and IV of the Habitats Directive. It does not directly cover certain species which are only listed in Annex V of the Habitats Directive (107) – unless Member States specifically add them, or unless they represent typical species of a natural habitat listed in Annex I of the Habitats Directive (108). It should be noted, however, that Annex V includes fish species which may feature in ‘damage to water’ (see Section 6 below).
