Plant species of Alvão Natural Park (Portugal)
From July 26th till August 2nd
2003 the Field Study Group of the Dutch Society for the Study and
Conservation of Mammals (Vereniging voor Zoogdierkunde en
Zoogdierbescherming, VZZ) paid a visit to the Alvão Natural Park in
Portugal (Google map). A summer
camp is a traditional part of the VZZ's yearly program, aimed at
surveying mammal species which are rare or absent in the
Netherlands, and to extend and exchange knowledge of survey methods
geared to diverse species - mostly bats and mice; if you want to

I recorded 162 plant species during the camp.
