Delivery of Multiple Species by Integrated Species Biodiversity Action PlansOne aim of this Audit was to examine whether a focus on providing the requirements of the priorityBiodiversity Action Plan species would comprehensively deliver the full suite of priority speciesrequiring conservation in Breckland.Priority species of dry terrestrial habitats were better represented by BAP species overall(0.17 BAP species per priority species) than were wetland priority species (0.13 BAP speciesper priority species).Larger assemblages contained more BAP species (for wetland assemblages, r = 0.81, p
