This table lists the different ecological corridors that provide connections between biodiversity reservoirs, providing favourable conditions for species to move and complete their life cycle. (Article R. 317-19 III of the Environmental Code).The regulations allow not all biodiversity reservoirs to be linked by ecological corridors (Article R. 317-19 II of the Environmental Code). This scenario should be limited and mainly concern biodiversity reservoirs with regard to:(a) the relevance of connecting or maintaining the natural isolation of these areas (in particular: cases of isolation to prevent the spread of invasive alien species or possible health problems posed by wildlife carrying diseases that can be transmitted to domestic species (e.g. swine fever) or even to humans (e.g. rabies); b) an issue of preservation of certain spaces that constitute an ecological network in “not Japanese” for associated species (e.g.: ponds and lakes, ponds, bogs) or certain areas not connected today but which can serve tomorrow as a “relay” or a new point of the ecological mesh of the territory (in the face of changes such as climate change, changes in range, fires, the disappearance of reservoirs via a development project...).
