Biodiversity Centres in Austria: As part of a study carried out by the 
World Wildlife Fund (WWF, or World-wide Fund for Nature), 367 areas in 
Austria have been defined as centres of biodiversity and homes of

and March/Morava as far as the Leitha river; the area around Lake 
Neusiedl; the area along the thermal line from Perchtoldsdorf near 
Vienna up to the Hohe Wand mountains, the most eastern edge of the 
Eastern Alps and the southwestern part of the Viennese basin; the 
eastern edge of the Bohemian massif including the western Tullnerfeld 
plain and the Pulkau Valley; the Weinsberg forest and the Freiwald 
forest along the border between Lower and Upper Austria; the Arbesthal 
hills including the Leithagebirge mountains; Southern Burgenland; 
Southern Styria along the lower Mur/Mura river; the southern 
Klagenfurt basin around Villach-Sattniz and Jaunfeld (Carinthia); the 
Lungau region around Tamsweg (province of Salzburg); the Salzkammergut 
region including the Totes Gebirge mountains and parts of the 
Dachstein; the Flachgau region and the lakes of the Upper Austrian 
alpine foothills; the upper and middle Inn Valley; Bregenzerwald
