List of terms used in Countryside Council for Wales documents and publications

The Countryside Council for Wales uses a wide range of terminology and Latin names within documents and publications. It is not always straight forward in finding a translation for them.

To make things easy for external translators/writers in keeping a consistency in their work for CCW and to help students and the public in their search for knowledge, we have produced lists separated into 4 groups:-

General CCW Terminology - giving translation for such things as Habitats, CROW Act, environment, sea and coast and conservation.

The remaining 3 groups

Vertebrates
Moths and Butterflies
Plants

are lists of species provided by ‘Cymdeithas Edward Llwyd’. These lists also include the Latin names.

For further information about the lists, or if the term you are searching for is not available on the list, please contact:
