A long term monitoring programme was established in 1992 by DARD to determine if the ESA scheme is fulfilling its objectives. Biological and landscape monitoring programmes have been established in all ESAs (McAdam et al. Department of Applied Plant Science, Queens University and DARD). A baseline biological monitoring programme in the West Fermanagh and Erne Lakeland ESA was completed in 1993 (Hegarty et al. 1994). This survey provided baseline data on the wildlife value of a range of sites from target habitats within the ESA boundary. Plant species, and invertebrates (ground beetles and spiders) were monitored.
