Reinforcing endemic populations on São Jorge

May 27, 2024

Under Action C3.2 “In-situ conservation” of the LIFE IP AZORES NATURA project, 190 individuals of Rumex azoricus and 240 individuals of Myosotis maritima were planted in the parish of Rosais on the island of São Jorge, on a zone classified as a Special Area of Conservation (PTJOR0013). This initiative aims to strengthen the populations of two protected endemic species in an unfavourable state of conservation, thus contributing to the preservation of these species and their habitat.
