Tamur Bog runs along the border with Northern Ireland and is located on the southern side of the main Pettigo/Laghy road in Co. Donegal, about mid-way between these two locations. The topography is predominantly undulating, over a bedrock of acid gneiss with some basic intrusions. This site consists of separate blocks mainly of blanket bog, wet heath and oligotrophic lakes.
The site is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) selected for the following habitats and/or species listed on Annex I / II of the E.U. Habitats Directive (* = priority; numbers in brackets are Natura 2000 codes):
[4010] Wet Heath
[7130] Blanket Bogs (Active)*
[7150] Rhynchosporion Vegetation
Within the areas of blanket bog at this site good micro-topographical variation, as well as variation in the vegetation, is seen, brought about by the occurrence of wet, quaking areas, lawns, inter-connecting pools and flushes. Overall the blanket bog is dominated by Purple Moor-grass (Molinia caerulea), with Deergrass (Scirpus cespitosus), Heather (Calluna vulgaris) and Hare’s-tail Cottongrass (Eriophorum vaginatum) all being common also. There are low, broad hummocks, often occluded by the herb layer, mostly consisting of the bog moss Sphagnum capillifolium, along with S. tenellum and lichens. Black Bog-rush (Schoenus nigricans) is present in flushes.
Well developed pool and hummock systems occur around parts of Lough Vearty, at the south of the site and along the border, east of Lough Awaddy. Quaking lawns are a feature of these areas, and Rhynchosporion vegetation is very well represented in these wet areas. Species noted in the lawns include the bog moss Sphagnum pulchrum and sundews (Drosera spp.), and in the pools the bog mosses S. cuspidatum and S. auriculatum, Bogbean (Menyanthes trifoliata), Lesser Bladderwort (Utricularia minor) and Bog-sedge (Carex limosa) are found. White Beak-sedge (Rhynchospora alba) also occurs on the lawns and in pools. Hummocks consisting mainly of the moss Racomitrium lanuginosum with Heather and small amounts of Cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccos) are present, though some hummocks with the mosses Sphagnum fuscum and S. imbricatum occur also. Several rare lichen species occur in these wet areas, mainly associated with the hummocks.
At the south of the site is a rare bog type which is intermediate in several respects between blanket and raised bog. Species found in the wet areas are similar to those described above. The islands formed in the pools support small Downy Birch (Betula pubescens) trees, Soft Rush (Juncus effusus), Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) and Broad Buckler-fern (Dryopteris dilatata).
Wet heath areas are found associated with sloping ground and in areas higher than the blanket bog. The vegetation, especially where the habitat occurs at the south of the site, is dominated by Cross-leaved Heath (Erica tetralix), Purple Moor-grass, Deergrass, Heather and cottongrasses, with scattered Sphagnum capillifolium. Hummocks are small and composed of Racomitrium lanuginosum with lichens. At the north of the site, in the vicinity of Tamur Hill, the ground is steeper and drier and the vegetation is dominated by Bilberry, Heather and Gorse (Ulex europaeus). Several streams and oligotrophic lakes occur within the site. Vegetation seen in the lakes includes Bottle Sedge (Carex rostrata), Water Horsetail (Equisetum fluviatile), Yellow Water-lily (Nuphar lutea), Common Club-rush (Scirpus lacustris), Perfoliate Pondweed (Potamogeton perfoliatus) and Common Reed (Phragmites australis). There are also quaking areas at the edges of some of the smaller lakes and these support the bog mosses Sphagnum recurvum, S. palustre, S. capillifolium, S. magellanicum and S. papillosum, the moss Aulacomnium palustre, with Bogbean and Marsh Cinquefoil (Potentilla palustris). On the rocky shores of the larger lakes, species seen include Water Lobelia (Lobelia dortmanna), Shoreweed (Littorella uniflora) and Marsh Pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris).
Species present along the streams and at some lake edges include False Oat-grass (Arrhenatherum elatius), Marsh Thistle (Cirsium palustre), Wild Angelica (Angelica sylvestris), Soft Rush, Common Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) and Heather. Several tree and shrub species, such as Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), willow (Salix spp.), Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna), Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia), Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) and the invasive alien species Rhododendron (Rhododendron ponticum) also occur.
Other habitats found within the site include fens, flushes and freshwater marshes.
Golden Plover, Hen Harrier and Merlin, bird species which are often associated with bog habitats and which are listed in Annex I of the E.U. Birds Directive, breed in small numbers on the site. Greenland White-fronted Goose, also listed in Annex I of
the Birds Directive, use the bog for feeding in winter. Red Grouse occur on the site.
The Otter, listed under Annex II of the E.U. Habitats Directive, occurs within the site.
Much suitable habitat for this species is present. The Irish Hare, Badger, Common Lizard and Common Frog are also present. The Irish Hare and Badger are listed under the Bern Convention, are all of these species are legally protected under the Wildlife Act, 1976, and are also Red Data Book species. Land use at the site consists of grazing, by both cattle and sheep, with some areas to
the north of the site and east of Belalt being over-grazed. Eutrophication of some of the smaller lakes is evident. Peat cutting around the site is intensive and commercial peat cutting has been extended onto the site. Drainage is associated with this. Much of the area around the site has been afforested and many owners within the site have applied for forestry grants. The Ballintra/Pettigo road cuts through the site.
This site is of scientific interest as it represents a very good example of lowland blanket bog which is mostly intact. Other associated habitats, especially wet heath and Rhynchosporion vegetation, add to the interest of the site. The site also supports some important bird species.

Lough Eske is a large lowland oligotrophic lake. It lies approximately 5 km north-east of Donegal town at the junction of Carboniferous rocks with more resistant Dalradian gneiss and granite. The site also includes the River Eske and short stretches of the Lowerymore, Clogher and Drummenny Rivers, as well as a number of smaller tributaries.
The site is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) selected for the following habitats and/or species listed on Annex I / II of the E.U. Habitats Directive (* = priority; numbers in brackets are Natura 2000 codes):
[3110] Oligotrophic Waters containing very few minerals
[7220] Petrifying Springs*
[91A0] Old Oak Woodlands
[1029] Freshwater Pearl Mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera)
[1106] Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)
[1421] Killarney Fern (Trichomanes speciosum)
The shore of Lough Eske has a diverse and interesting flora which reflects the contrasting geology within the site. It includes heath-covered peninsulas, rocky shores, small flushes, wet and dry woodland fringes, occasional reedbeds of Phragmites australis, small freshwater marshes and some interesting species-poor fen communities (particularly on the northern shore of the lake) which are typified by Star Sedge (Carex echinata). In addition there are also small, but relatively intact, very wet areas of blanket bog.
Ardnamona Wood, on the western side of the lake, is an old oak woodland. It is of great scientific interest for its size, naturalness and flora. It displays a habitat range from dry areas dominated by Pedunculate Oak (Quercus robur) to wet woodland with Alder (Alnus glutinosa). Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia) and Downy Birch (Betula pubescens) also occur in the high canopy with Holly (Ilex aquifolium), Hazel (Corylus avellana) and Willow (Salix spp.) in the understorey. Oak and Birch woodland is also found along the valley of the Lowerymore River. The north side of this valley also has some petrifying springs, a priority Annex I habitat under the E.U. Habitats Directive. These all possess moss species which are diagnostic of the habitat, such as Cratoneuron commutatum, C. filicinum and Eucladium verticillatum).
The Killarney Fern (Trichomanes speciosum), a Red Data Book species listed in Annex II of the E.U. Habitats Directive and included under the Flora (Protection) Order, 1999, occurs in the site. Two other rare plants, Whorled Caraway (Carum verticillatum) and Six-stamened Waterwort (Elatine hexandra), are also present.
Important animals recorded from the site include good populations of Atlantic Salmon and Freshwater Pearl Mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera), both listed on Annex II of the E.U. Habitats Directive, and the Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus), a rare fish listed in the Red Data Book of Irish vertebrates. The Eske system is an important multi-sea-winter (spring salmon) stock, one of the few rivers nationally to hold 3-sea-winter fish over 20 lb.
A number of exotic species, notably the invasive Rhododendron ponticum, have become established in Ardnamona Wood and represent a threat to the ecological value of the habitat. The lake and its flora and fauna are vulnerable to pollution from the surrounding agricultural land and also from an increase in domestic waster effluent.
This site contains three habitats listed in the E.U. Habitats Directive - lowland oligotrophic lake, petrifying springs and old oak woodland. Three species which are also included in the Habitats Directive - the Killarney Fern, the Atlantic Salmon and the Freshwater Pearl Mussel - are also present in the site.

Lough Nageage is situated to the east of Lough Derg, and approximately 5 km north east of Pettigo in the south of Co. Donegal. This small site contains three lakes, the highest of which lies at an altitude of 181 m. The lakes lie in a basin, surrounded by gently sloping ground, underlain by bedrocks of Lower Avonian Shales and Sandstones. The surrounding soils are predominantly thin peats, with a greater depth of peat accumulated on flatter ground.
The site is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) selected for the following habitats and/or species listed on Annex I / II of the E.U. Habitats Directive (* = priority; numbers in brackets are Natura 2000 codes):
[1092] White-clawed Crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes)
White-clawed Crayfish is the only species of crayfish found in Ireland, where it is protected under the Wildlife Act, 1976. It is classified as a vulnerable and rare species in the IUCN Red List of threatened animals, it is listed as a protected faunal species in Appendix III of the Bern Convention, and is also listed in Annex II of the E.U. Habitats Directive.
The first and only record for White-clawed Crayfish from Co. Donegal was made at Lough Nageage in August 1991. The species was recorded again in June 1998 when large populations were noted in both Lough Nageage and Lough Veenagreane. Females carrying young were also reported. The altitude of these lakes, 165 m and 181 m respectively, are noteworthy as White-clawed Crayfish are rare at altitudes above 150 m.
Lough Nageage and Lough Veenagreane have sandy lakebeds, with small boulders and pebbles present. Several streams feed into these lakes. The emergent vegetation around the shores is sparce, with Water Horsetail (Equisetum fluviatile), Compact Rush (Juncus conglomeratus), Jointed Rush (J. articulatus) and Lesser Spearwort (Ranunculus flammula). Lough Naveane, the smallest of the lakes, has a peaty bottom and the water is stained with humic acids giving it an orange appearance.
The dominant habitat surrounding these lakes is wet heath, with species such as Heather (Calluna vulgaris), Bell Heather (Erica cinerea), Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), Heath Bedstraw (Galium saxatile), Heath Rush (Juncus squarrosus), White Beak-sedge (Rhynchospora alba), Deergrass (Scirpus cespitosus), Tormentil (Potentilla erecta), occasional Cross-leaved Heath (Erica tetralix), Hard Fern (Blechnum spicant), lichens Cladonia uncialis and C. portentosa, and many mosses including bog mosses (Sphagnum spp.). Blanket bog has developed on the flatter areas with species such as Heather, Cross-leaved Heath, Common Cottongrass (Eriophorum angustifolium), White Beak-sedge, Deergrass and in one location, Black Bog-rush (Schoenus nigricans).
Much of the site has been afforested and the planted areas have been extensively drained. There are deciduous whips (young trees) planted around the perimeter of the plantations, which are often planted within 15 m of the margins of the lakes. There are also a number of old field systems within the site which have reverted to rush-dominated grassland. The species associated with this habitat include Soft Rush (Juncus effusus), Jointed Rush, Compact Rush, Heath Bedstraw, Creeping Bent (Agrostis stolonifera) and Yorkshire-fog (Holcus lanatus). There is generally a good cover of mosses, liverworts and lichens found in association with this habitat. Narrow strips of scrub/woodland can also be found on more steeply ground, dominated by Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), birch (Betula spp.) and with occasional oak (Quercus spp.). The understorey comprises Bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) and Purple Moor-grass (Molinia caerulea), with some Gorse (Ulex europaeus) in places.
Three species of Red Data Book vertebrates, protected under the Wildlife Act, 1976, have been recorded within the site. Otter is listed in Annex II of the Bern Convention and Annexes II and IV of the E.U. Habitats Directive, Irish Hare is a sub-species listed in Annex III of the Bern Convention and Common Frog is listed in Annex V of the E.U. Habitats Directive.
The predominant land use around the site is afforestation. Grazing also occurs, and both sheep and cattle are present on lands which have not been planted. Fishing is reported to be carried out on Lough Nageage, which is noted to contain Trout. Peat cutting is active within the site but this is limited to the small pockets of blanket bog. Although old turf banks exist, it would appear that the only active cutting is carried out by Difco machine.
The biggest threat to the populations of White-clawed Crayfish is deterioration of water quality, particularly acidification and nutrient enrichment associated with the recent afforestation in the catchment. Run-off from agricultural practices is not thought to be a major threat due to the limited amount of improved pasture in the vicinity of the site.
This is an important site because of the population of White-clawed Crayfish that it supports. The range of habitats found at the site, along with the species of plants and animals supported, add to the value.

"Of woods, nurseries or plantations [Templecarn] is at present completely destitute, thought there is every appearance of it having been formerly well supplied with timber. To iron works formerly carried on in the neighbourhood, the present bare appearance of the country is chiefly to be ascribed. There are few orchards and these very diminutive indeed. From the few samples that are to be met with, it is to be presumed that reeds would thrive tolerably well. Oak, ash, poplars seem to suit the climate best, as also all the different species of fir, Scotch and larch particularly."
