The headquarters of the General Directorate of Natural Heritage and Biodiversity hosting an exhibition on nature iberoafricana (11/05/2009)

Starting today, and for two weeks, will be open on the ground floor of the General Directorate of Natural Heritage and Biodiversity (C / Professor Eugenio Úbeda, 3) the exhibition "Nature iberoafricana as a bridge between two continents', conducted by Naturalists Association of the Southeast.

The interest of the shows is that southern Europe and North Africa share many species due to 6.5 million years ago the two continents were joined.

Some species, such as the Cartagena jara (Cistus heterophyllus) or wolf chumberillo (Caralluma europaea) are already in very small areas.

Other formations are very interesting plants, such as blackberry juniper forests (Tetraclinis articulata), bush jujube (Ziziphus lotus) or wormwoods (Periploca angustifolia).

The fauna is the connection between the two continents through their migrations.

For example, the Audouin's gull, whose main location in the Region of Murcia is Grosa Island, played in the Mediterranean and then travel to the Saharan fishing bank.

The peculiar characteristics and fragility of these species make the Directorate General of Natural Heritage and Biodiversity greater efforts for their conservation.
